As of Release 4.6A, the system no longer generates any cross-functional area cost flows (relevant to reconciliation) within Controlling when you carry out cost center accrual calculation. This feature enables you to prevent costs that are accrued only (accrued rent for example) from being reported to Financial Accounting.

The system derives the functional area only for the cost center which is to be debited with the costs, and credits the credit object under the same functional area as the cost center.
