Profit Center Accounting and New GL in SAP ERP
Filed under: General Ledger Module, SAP FI Configration, SAP Knowledge, SAP Tutorial
For release SAP ERP, the Profit Center Accounting was integrated into the new G/L accounting. The solution is as follows:
SAP delivers the ‘Profit Center‘ and the ‘Partner Profit Center‘ as fixed characteristics that are posted on the original FI postings. The data is not updated, as required, in another ledger, as in the classic Profit Center Accounting.
As a result of integration of the Profit Center Accounting into the new G/L accounting, new functions such as ‘document splitting’ are available. Using the ‘Document Splitting‘ function (online document split), balance sheets can be created for company codes as well as for other entities such as the profit center. The balance is then set to 0 for each document for the profit center.
