Executing an Actual Line Item Report

This section tells you how to call up an actual line item report directly.

Choose Information system ® Profit Center Accounting reports ® Line item reports ® Profit center actual line items.

On the initial screen, enter your selection criteria. The most important parameters here are:

· G/L record type (0 = actual, 2 = actual assessment/distribution within Profit Center Accounting). Note that plan line items are stored in a separate file.

· Version (usually version 000 for actual data)

· Controlling area or company code

· Posting period and fiscal year

· Account (revenue/cost element)

· Profit center and partner profit center

· Document number or reference document number

Specify a display variant.

1SAP Standard display with reference document number

The system displays the document number of the original document transferred to Profit Center Accounting.

2SAP Standard display with profit center document number

To read about how to create user-specific or standard display variants, see Functions in Line Item Reporting.

Note

You can change the data source by choosing Extras ® Data Source. For further information, choose the "i" key on the dialog box for the data source.

Execute the program.

Basic list

All records which you selected directly on the initial screen or in the Report Writer report are displayed in the basic list.

At the top of the list, the system displays the selection criteria for your information. This is followed by a list of the line items. The columns show the document type, document number, document item, account, profit center and partner profit center along with the value in the profit center report currency for your controlling area. Some additional information may also be displayed depending on the selection parameters.

The document type tells you what application the data came from:

Document type	Application
A	document number from EC-PCA
B	documents from FI up through Release 2.2
K	documents from Controlling
W	documents received via the FI/CO interface (FI, SD and MM)

The document number is either the number assigned internally in Profit Center Accounting or the number copied from the original document (reference document number), depending on which you chose to see on the selection screen. The default here is the reference document number.

Note

For billing documents, only the profit center document number can be displayed.

From this list which serves as a basis of information for the user, you can display the entire EC-PCA line item document, the original document or the corresponding FI/CO document. These functions as well as the various settings for the line item report are described in Functions in Line Item Reporting.
