Hi

is it possible to change the valid to date in a cost element? user has created the cost element as category 11 instead of 1 - a posting has already been made so i cannot change the category. I wanted to change the period of this cost element and then create a new on with the correct category

thanks

Hi,

It is possible to change by using Edit-->Analysis period and then change other period. However only restriction for this is system will not accept any date with in the same fiscal year. The new date for your change should be only for different fiscal year.

Sap gives the following message which may be of help to you..

Change interval must be set to year end

Message no. KS021

Diagnosis

Field CElem Category must be unique within a fiscal year. You have selected a change period before the fiscal year end. Changing the field would result in inconsistent data.

Can you not just delete it with KA04? E.g. If there is data in 2007 delete from 2008 to when ever etc. That way the cost element exists up to the point it was being used and then it's deleted from there on in. The cost element that's left then will have the an analysis period only up to 2007. Points please.
