Question - CJVC - Can Value Categorgies be assigned to multiple company codes?

Former Member

Hello Gurus,

Issue:

  • Two company codes share the same controlling area and chart of accounts Company A & Company B
  • Company A needs to create value categories to be used in their Project systems & Plant Maintenance hierarchy Reports
    • Company A wants to assign their cost elements to the value categories, this would leave company B's unassigned cost elements on the CJVC - Analysis of Value Category Assignments report
  • Resulting in Company B's cost elements being displayed as un assigned with the yellow traffic light

Question:

  1. What is the consequence, if company A creates their own cost element groups and include them in their value categories, how will this effect company B's cost elements ?
  2. Does this mean Company A should  create value categories for Company B, then create cost element groups and assign those remaining cost elements to the newly created value category structure for Company B?

Is this the best solution?

Respectfully,

Tomiya

Hi Tomiya,

In the configuration of Value Categories we are defining these based on the Controlling area and not at the company code level. So if your two companies belong to the same controlling area, If anyone creates a Value Category then it will  be used by both of them.

There is no consequence of having unassigned cost elements to value categories in CJVC. Only thing is that you will  not be able to segregate the cost under some meaningful headings in Value Category reports.. They will fall under the unassigned column. You can still run your cost element wise reports and  your reports would be fine..

I think here the question is does company B requires reporting based on Value Category? If yes then they also need to create their own Cost element groups and add these to their Value Categories, if not then there is no harm..

Hope it helps you..

Regards

Sammar
