Use
In the profit and profitability segment calculations (CO-PA), you can execute periodic reporting in controlling at product level. You can build up multi-dimensional market segments (
Profitability Segment) distinguishable through many different characteristics. You can analyze the profitability of a product in a specific region, customer group and distribution channel simultaneously. This multi-dimensionality is especially meaningful for service industries, which often see their products as much more than one-dimensional.You can use business processes or cost center/activity types as senders with template-allocation for profitability segments. You can define the profitability segment of the profitability analysis as the receiver: this allows the system to assign costs to the appropriate market segment. You create the template in environment PAC.
