Org managament -Cost Center- Position

Hi Experts,

There is a clarification required, I am creating Jobs,Positions from 01.01.1900 upto 31.12.9999 and the FI consultant has created his Cost centers mentioning the date as 01.04.2009. As se says that I need to mantain the cost center creation dates only 1 year prior to GO-LIVE date.

Now the problem is when I am creating one of the Positions in the Account Assignment tab details and its Cost distribution tab in Org Managment with PPOCE transaction, by assigning the positions relevent Cost Center where he falls to....the system throws and error stating that Cost Center not maintained on 01.01.1900 as it is the matter of that cost centers have been created only from 01.04.2009.

So, now can any of you let me know how myself and FI consultant need to resolve this issue?


Best Regards,
KishoreJ.

hi,

The reason for this is the hiring date is earlier then the date of cost centers tell FI consultant to make cost center date to the date of joining of employee with maximum tenure.

In FI it is possible he will have to edit the cost center and create earlier year entry.

Hi,

Its better to create your jobs and positions wef Creation of Cost centres as cost centres are associated with Charts of accounts and other Fi and CO objects , in FI and CO all objects needed to be created form that date.

Next option is u create cost centre assignment wef from cost centre creation date.

Hi,

So, I would go ahead and create Jobs & Positions according to Cost Center dates. Can you please clarify me with one thing is
Now If I create the Jobs & Position of the date from which Cost Centers have been created in my case 01.04.2009, will I be able to hire an employee with the created Jobs & Positions with previous date like for example an employee is working with Organization from 01.01.2003 till date as when I do hiringaction, system asks me for joining date, so mentioning his joinning date as 01.01.2003 and maintain all the Org data with Account Assignment, Cost Distribution as per the relevent dates.

Thank You,
KishoreJ.
