COPA- Transfer from MM

[former_member200240]

Hi All,

We are in ECC 6.0 with document splitting functionality. We have Costing based COPA. We do not have product costing however. Business wants the MM consumption postings to post to COPA because SD posts the product and other characteristics to COPA. (so consumption is also to be posted to COPA to arrive at Gross Profit margin). In OKB9, we have valuation area mandatory which prevents us to tick the Checkbox for Prof segment. We have made necessary config settings in COPA like PA transfer structure, KEPA, KE4G (for Business transaction RMWA) , KEVG2 as well as Characteristic value for Product group (which is the one we need to bring in to COPA) etc. Our goods movement (mvt type 201) picks up GL Account and cost center based on OBYC settings. However we want Proft segment as True cost object and Cost center as Statistical. We have made the Field status group of Mvt type 201 for Prof segment as "mandatory" and for GL as Optional. We are not going to use MB1A (manual goods issues).

How to bring the Prof segment (we have a characteristic Product group to be brought to COPA). What options are available to us?.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Jayaram,

Sorry !! Where do you want Profitability segment ? In Goods Movements or any other. Use OMBW transaction to make mandatory the Profitability analysis while issuing ,if it is Goods Movement.

Hi

As mentioned in my note, we have done that too. What we need is how to bring in Consumption posting to COPA when we have valuation area mandatory in OKB9 and at the same time, we need cost center as statistical. Is there any user-exit which can be written when we do Goods movement using Mvt type 201 or we can have a customized movement type?.

Thanks & Regards
