Cost center field in outbound delivery item level.

[Former Member]

I want to make Outbound Delivery without Sales order referance - VL01NO

In Outbound Delivery, Goto > Item > Financial Processing, there is Cost center field.

AS a CO user's requirements, I have to input this field.

But I can not put in there, because it is not active - just display ; screened.

I want to use this cost center field.

How can I do it?

Regards.

Hi Jung, whether the cost center has been maintained in MM (plant data/stor2 screen)? Suppose it can be automatically copied to delivery once maintained.

Thanks for your reply.

But I din't understand about "maintained in MM (plant data/stor2 screen)"

Is it means Material master "plant data/stor2 screen"?

If it is, there is not cost center field. I found just profit center field.

I expect another answer.

Regards.

Hi Jung, sorry, my typo.

what I mean is whether profit center has been maintained in MM? U know, cost center is derived from profit center. Moreover, try whether cost center determination can help u (t code OVF3).

Hi

The Cost Center Determination settings is in OVF3 - but there are some cases where the Cost Center must be exceptionally changed.

If the document category for order type in IMG VOV8 is defined to be "I" which belong to order type FD - Deliv.Free of Charge, then the field cost center is active for input during transaction VA01.

Alternatively, you can specify an order reason and assign a cost center to an order reason.

However the standard SAP works only at the header level though, so it would not work if cost center is needed on the line item.

The cost center are assign for such business transactions as :

- Free deliveries

- Returns

- Deliveries of advertising materials

You can also make cost center allocation dependent on the order reason, for example:

Order reason: Damage in transit

Order reason: Free sample

Both the IMG settings are done in transaction OVF3, either with/without the order reason.

Thanks for your kind reply.

But it is not what I want to know.

I don't want to know cost center determination.

I want to know why cost center field is not active - just display and screened.

I want to change as active field.

Do I ask CO consultant ?

Or another solution ?
