Deleting Cost Centers...

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I want to delete a cost center related to some transaction data.

So when i am trying to delete directly some of the cost centers are not getting deleted.

I have reset the transaction data for that particular company code and tried again but it shows the same result for those cost centers.

Even i tried changing the validity period of the cost center is OKEON but it was not changing and throughing the same error saying dependent data exists for those cost centers.

Could any one please suggest me how to delete such cost center....

regards

Once you have transactional data it is not possible to delete the cost center. However to restrict the usage of cost center you should be able to end date or block from further postings.

Hi

SAP does not support the deletion of cost centers when transaction data has been posted. Even if the transactions have been reversed, i.e. the balance is zero. This will create inconsistency in the system, i.e. you will have transaction data with no master data (cost centre) behind the transaction. You should ensure that you really want to do this.
