Hi Abhi,

You can post using FB50 transaction using G/L's and giving account assignment as WBS...

Hope this will help.

Dear Abhi,

You want to post revenue so customer is required.

Try it with any sample customer.

May I Know What will be the source of revenue?

Dear Abhi,

In this scenario when we make any credit entry  to GL just enter WBS Name. Take revenue GL.

Along this I want to clear you there are many t codes for FI Posting(f-02,f-07,f-48,fb50/55-60-65-70 and so on).

Concept is that-

For booking Cost/Expense, enter WBS instead of cost centre and cost will incurred in WBS.

For Booking Revenue Enter WBS instead of profit centre.

Along this there is manual reposting for cost by KB11n & Revenue by KB41n.

I was in your phase few months ago So I can understand your situation.

I request you do end user activity at your hand atleast once. This will help you in understanding flow of data. After this you can easily do these things. I know it will take time but be patient & it will be helpful to you.

Hi,

Concept is-

Cost- Incurred during expense. In normal scenario we book this on cost centre. For booking it in wbs we have to enter wbs instead of cost centre. This field is available in all FI Posting T codes(Subject to field status variant config) beside cost centre.

Similar is the case in revenue. Here we enter profit centre in sales order. So enter WBS instead of profit centre. This will reflect the revenue in WBS.

Hi,

KB11n & KB41n is purely for reposting of cost/Revenue.

There you can select source and target. source & target can be any cost centre or WBS or sales order and so on.

They just post cost/revenue directly.

I request you to try it at your hand and analyze the result.

Here cost element refer to GL.

P&L GLs has one to one relation with cost element which same in name in most of the cases.

Cost element works as cost/Revenue collector.

Hi,

You can use n number of WBS with same GL but one at a time only.

Amount limitation is on WBS through availability control.

hi Mohan,

              i did hirachical planning in cj40. As there are no activities we need to do post actual cost on wbs by using FB50. For doing this we need Fi consultant . then we can see the report Am i right?

Hi Abhi,

You are right. But You may try to post an entry at your end.

Actual posting can be made to Any WBS subject to availability of budget, If availability control is activated.

1. While make debit entry in FB50, Enter WBS name(WBS must be released for same, See System/User Status->Business process for that WBS and check whether FI:Postings is allowed or not).
