SAC Validation Rules

[former_member809799]

Hi All,

I have implemented a simple validation rule using the attribute method for Cost Center - Attributes ( Company Code & Profit Center) which is working fine.

When entering revenue (unassigned # cost center) there should be no restriction on what company code and/or profit center is used. However, it looks like SAC only generates valid combinations for # unassigned cost centers based on the existing attributes of cost center.

So if there is a profit center or company code not present in the attributes it will be blocked for unassigned # cost centers. I could add a dummy cost center with all companies and profit centers but this is manual and would need to be updated for each new profit center or company code.

Has anyone else come across this issue?

Hi seamus100,

Thanks for the question, we saw same requests in community. Besides the official solutions in the future,

The workaround I can propose is to create a dummy member in matched dimension, this dummy member is only generated to make the profit center valid for data entry. Just make sure no data is entered to the dummy member, then the data will be automatically set to the profit center and # member in unbooked mode.

Thanks & Regards

Edward
