Change profit center in material master

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I have a requirement where the client wants to change the profit center on some materials.

This is what I have so far. Can you please let me know if I am on the right path/give additional guidance?

First thing we need to look into is the stock for the materials. If it isn't 0, then move them to another cost center(GI), then change the profit center in the mat master. Then do another GR so that the updated profit center will be picked up. Also we might have to change message MM335 to warning. Also on the other hand, we would have to delete the open PO's, reservations, correct?

Hello Seema,

You would need to go to OMT4 and change the message MM335 to Warning.

Please, also refer the following SAP Notes:

1351670 MM 335 if profit center changed due to previous period stock

1106510 Error message MM 335 when you change the profit center

Best regards,

Seema,

You  have to make the stock zero. Then after profit center change add the stock. 

Regarding the open purchase documents, there is no need to delete them. Jurgen in a post last month commented about an SAP Note :141009, where there is a report that will correct open purchase orders.
