Hi rish

You might have assigned a cost center to it

go to t.code VKOA and assign to KOFK condition type , followed by sales orgn, dist channel,acctassgn grp CMR, acctassgn grp MMR, act key G/L acct

if still you are facing problem go to t.code OKB9

and still if you are facing problem go to fs00 of that G/L account 892000 and go to account assignment view and thre you deactivate the profit center

your problem will be solved.and let me know the status

Reward if useful

Hi rish

In FS00 , go to the last tab there , inside that tab i suppose , account assignment feild will be there. please check rish. the last 2 tabs in FS00.

but for the error you are getting, i think by assigning KOFK in VKOA your problem will be solved.

can you tell me wat exactly you are doing and wat is the sales cycle and wat is the item category in the sales order.

Hi srinath,

This is a freight a/c basically.

We are adding freight charges.

I have created one cond type zd00 as freight cond. as manual

We hve done the account assignment with account key in vkoa. with kofi.cond type.

Now while releasing invoice i m facing this problem.

"Account 'xxxxxx' requires an assignment to a CO object"

if u need any further details i will be glad to share more details

waiting for ur reply.

Rish,

Mainrtain the same G/L account in VKOA for condition type KOFK, should solve your problem.

Hi,

You can default it in OKB9 for the Gl account based on the profit center and G.L account combination since Profit center will be obtained from the material master assignment it can be done this way.

In transaction MIGO which is for Goods receipt it posts to Fi automatically through the configuration in OBYC.

It will also be a cost element due t which it required an CO object. For this also you have to maintain a Co object in transaction OKB9

Siddharth.

Hi Rish,

Simply go to FS00 and click on edit cost element and for CElm Category give some input based on the G/L account type.

You might have to seek help of an FI consultant to do so.

Also in KA01 create this G/L account as a cost element against your controlling area assigned to your Chart of Accounts, you can do so by clicking on Extra's tab in transaction KA01.

Just let me know if it works.

If the GL account exists in OBYC . go to the TCODE KA01 enter the controlling area , give the Gl acoount No , and click on Master data tab , when u entered into the detailed screen check Default Acc Assgmnt key and enter Cost centr and save.

Dear rish

Go to OBYC, select the transaction GBB and see for the combination of 0001 / VAY / 7920, xxxxxx (G/L Account) is assigned. If not, assign it and retry. Of course, the 7920 depends on your material type valuation class for which you are trying.

thanks
