View or Edit Profit Center in PO and SA

[marcoantonio_romerosanche]

Hello...

We are going to change materials to a new profit center and in EKPO the field profit center "PRCTR" is showed, but in the PO and SA documents not.

What is the way to show and edit the profit center field in the purchase order and in the schedule agreement.

I went to the field selection groups for both and that profit center field is not in the list.

It is that possible?

or Shold we update the Material master and create new documents?

If you use the account assignment category in the PO than only the field will be populated in the PO

to check make it optional for A/C category

go to Tcode OME9 and select your A/C vategory and make it optional

This is way I love SAP....

I found an OSS note related to my problem. OSS 141009 Talk about the profit center assignment in materials.

***********************************

Summary

Symptom

If you changed the profit center assignment in material master, this new assignment is not taken into account for those purchase orders or scheduling agreements created before the change. As a result the old profit center is used instead of the new profit center.

Other terms

EKPO Profit Center Assignment

Reason and Prerequisites

Missing functionality.

Solution

Execute the attached program ZECPCAEK for the affected purchase orders or scheduling agreements. This will change the profit center of the document to the profit center of the material master.

Attention: you can use report ZECPCAEK only for purchase orders without account assignment objects. If you have purchase order with accounts assignments you have to change the purchase orders manually.

Thanks for your response but we are not using any account assignment category.

The materials we are using are for production (material type KAUF). So account assignment category is blank.
