Prerequisites
You create cost center assignments to assign a cost center to an organizational unit, or position.
When you create a cost center assignment, the system creates a relationship record between the organizational unit or position and the cost center. (This is relationship A/B 011.) No assignment percentage record can be entered.
When you assign further cost centers (cost distribution), a record of infotype 1018 (cost distribution) is created for the organizational units and positions concerned. A cost center and a percentage record for the cost center assignment will be entered into this record.
The percentage assignment of the Cost center will be the difference after cost distribution.
The inheritance principle applies to cost center assignments. Subordinate objects inherit the cost center of superior objects.
Note that the staffing percentage can have a great effect on cost distribution.
Procedure
The Assign Cost Center or Change Cost Distribution dialog box appears.
You might not see the cost center assignment, if the tree structure is not fully expanded. See Expanding the Tree Structure
