This function lets you copy existing transaction data to create a new plan in Profit Center Accounting. For example, it might be useful to use the actual values of the current year as a basis for you plan for the coming year.
You can find the function in the Profit Center Accounting application menu by choosing Planning
® Copy Data to Plan.Specify the objects that you want to use as the source data for your plan. Note that an entry in the Profit center and Account fields is required in the planning areas "Costs/revenues" and "Balance sheet accounts". In the planning area "Statistical key figures", entries in the Profit center and Statistical key figure fields are required.
To copy the data in the background, choose Background processing. The system displays a dialog box. Here you can overwrite the default job name "COPYPLAN".
This function only copies the transaction data. The settings for the source data are not copied over to the target version. You therefore need to maintain the functions Plan version and Version parameters.
This function does not create any line items.
