Transfer from Financial Accounting
Use
When you post data directly in Financial Accounting, all primary data requires an additional assignment to a CO object.
The assignment of this CO object (cost center, order, and so on) to a profit center ensures that the data is passed on to Profit Center Accounting. The profit center cannot, however, be entered directly when the FI posting is made.
It is recommended that you define your cost elements so that the profit center field appears on the account assignment screen in Financial Accounting. This makes it possible for you to verify the assignment. You can do this in Customizing via the basis parameters for business transactions.
Features
In addition to primary costs, the change in work in process and production variances from Product Cost Accounting also reach Profit Center Accounting via Financial Accounting.
Note
Using the document display function in Financial Accounting, you can display the documents which are created in Profit Center Accounting as a result of the posting under the menu option
