Custom Fields in Cost Assignment Tab

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement of displaying a users 10 favourite cost elements in the cost assignment tab while creating a shopping cart.

To meet this requirement we want 10 rows to be displayed in the cost assignment tab. Each row will consist of the following fields:

Account category

Cost Center/WBS Element

GL Account

Check box/Boolean Field.

The user will select the check boxes or update the boolean fields of the row/s he wants to select.

To achieve this requirement we have added the fields (as per sap note 672960) to the following structures/tables:

INCL_EEW_PD_ACC_CSF

BBP_C_ACC_F

BBP_C_ACCFD.

Also added the fields in customizing (TCode SPRO) as decribed in the note.

The problem is only one each of account category, cost center/WBS Element and GL account is displayed one below the other, whereas we want 10 rows to be displayed.

How do we go about achieving this requirement. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

Jayesh,

Hi. I'm not too sure of the release you are on, but on SRM 5.5 there are two that would be able to solve your requirement.

1) BBP_F4_READ_ON_ENTRY. Here you can set a Favourites list for Cost Centre or WBS. This means when they go to the Account assignment screen the default 'F4' list will include their 10 fav.

2) BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI. This can be used to default the account assignment rows in. It does mean they will have to remove the wrong ones, or you could set them all in with a zero percentage, and the user would have to setup the split.

My suggestion would be to use option 1. Its not quite the way you have suggested with bespoke fields, but it is quite easy for the user to use.

Cheers
