Read Purchase Orders/Sales Orders

If the company codes in your organization are stored in the same system, the system can determine the partner profit center using a special program, as follows:

• With billing documents and goods issues to affiliated companies, the profit center is determined from the corresponding purchase order from the partner company. It is then set as a partner profit center.

• With invoice and goods receipts from affiliated companies, the profit center is determined from the corresponding sales order or delivery note (for stock transfer processing) from the partner company. It is then set as a partner profit center.

You can find further information in the R/3 Library, under Profit Center Accounting, Preparation for Consolidation.

Prerequisites

You have activated the special program for the relevant companies (see Identify Companies in the Same Client ).
