Cost centre in sales order

[Former Member]

Can some one tell me where a cost centre field is in sales order?I can find the field in VBAP though but not in VA01/02

No need of user exit. Try the following:-

Goto OVF3, click on new entries, maintain sales area, order reason (E.g 102), cost center and valid from. Now go to VA01, enter sold-to party, material and other information.

Now goto header details account assignment tab, you find the cost center field.

thanks

I dont find it either @ header or item level in VA01/02.

Is there any config as how the field is populated in sales orders.

Sales Order Header > Account Assignmnet Tab.

If it is not showing then you will have to work on the below user exit in MV45AFZB . Please work with your ABAPER.

check the program MV45AFZB using SE38 and for these below userexits if any code relating to cost center is mainatined. if not, then you wil have to get it mainatined.

User exit name: USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_COBL

user exit name: USEREXIT_COBL_RECEIVE_VBAK

user exit name: USEREXIT_COBL_SEND_HEADER

If the above codes are already done and still if you are unable to see the field in the sales order header, then check if any transaction variant is created and assign to your order type ( Check the ord type defintion using VOV8 in field Variant).

Hey

I checked it even in IDES too.

I am not sure technically but any thoughts can it be done thru config ?

[Former Member]

I am not sure on how to get this done thru config. Initially we were also not getting to see the Cost center in the order header.I got it done thru the userexits which I mentioned in my earlier posts.
