Create purchase orders with default cost center

[j_madariaga]

Hi, gurus!

Is there any way to get automatically default cost center when creating a PO (for example, depending on material group).

The aim is to get cost center field populated but not using personal settings.

I guess it can be done using OKB9 transaction, but I don't know what to include in each field. I tried indicating company code, cost center and G/L account as cost element (that is the way it is customized here: material group = G/L account). But it didn't work.

Any clue?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

J Madariaga

Hi,

Check link to HOW set default a G/L account and cost center for a material group when a purchase order is created for inventory item and for non-inventory item with help of t.code: OME9,OMSF,OMQW & OBYC  and doing all related assignment.

Also assign Cost center in for that G/L account in t.code: KA02 and save.

Now create fresh new Purchase Order with that material Group and see G/L account and cost center defaulted.

Solved. It is mandatory to select "Derive acct. assgt" in transaction OME9 for the correspondent account assignment category.

Then in OKB9 transaction we defined company code, cost element and cost center.

Thanks.
