Can one profit centre be assigned to many business areas?

Hi
Can any one tell me that whether "one profit centre be assigned to many business areas"?
Regards
Rakesh

Dear,
We never assign tehm to ech other,
But both business area and profit centers are created for internal reporting. Now a days profit center is a felling that business area enhancement would not be supported by SAP future version
Business area:An organizational unit in external accounting, which corresponds to a separate operational or responsibility area in the organization, and value flows recorded in Financial Accounting can be assigned to it.
The business area should be treated as a separate economic unit, for which you can create an internal balance sheet and a profit and loss statement. The business area is, however, only an internal organizational unit and does not have any external impact.
You define business areas if you wish to create a balance sheet and a profit and loss statement for internal areas, in addition to company codes.
Profit Center:
A profit center is an organizational unit in accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization for the purpose of internal control.
you can use your profit centers as investment centers.
Profit center Accounting at the profit center level is based on costs and revenues. These are assigned statistically by multiple parallel updating to all logistical activities and other allocations of relevance for a profit center.

  • Can 'DUMMY PROFIT CENTRE' postings be reallocated to a 'real' Profit Centre

    I am working for a company that was implemented with the majority of Cost Centres having no Profit Centre assignments.  This means that all the historical PCA documents have been posted to DUMMY PC.  We now wish to change this concept by creating new Profit Centres and assigning the current Cost Centres to them.  Will only new transactions post to the new Profit Centres or is it possible to redirect historical PCA postings to the new structure?  The system has been live for a few years but it would be extremely useful if at least the last and current fiscal year postings could be re-assigned.
    Many thanks for any guidance with this topic.
    Kind regards,
    Alan Gilbert

    Hi Gilbert
    1. Historical transactions as such wont flow automatically to new PCs..
    2. But you can either create a distribution cycle or use 9KE0
    Using 9 KE0: You can calculate cumulative values per GL / Prof Ctr combination and do a mass upload using 9KE0
    Or If you use BW for reporting, you can also upload the values in BW

    Hi
    It is possible but that is only for reporting purposes.
    To enable to do that you need to activate Enterprise Structure with Alternative Heirarchy.
    You can have more info on this at the following link.

  • Account assignment not possible (Asset not assigned to a business area)

    HI
    While posting an asset acquisition through F-90 by entering Business area, doc.type AA,TT-100,PK-70, i am getting the error messege AA483 - "Account assignment not possible (Asset not assigned to a business area)".
    I have correctly created asset master and assigned Business area and Cost centre.
    And i am not getting any problem in another company code for same asset class.
    Please suggest
    Bhanu Prakash

    Hello
    Assets are assigned to a single business area in their master record. Every posting to an asset balance sheet account is automatically posted to that business area. The business area for an asset is passed on to all line items connected with the asset. Therefore you do not need to make a manual account assignment for a business area at any point.

  • Can I add a New Folder to existing Business Area with Command Line?

    Hi,
    Can I add a New Folder to existing Business Area with Command Line in Discoverer (java or executable)? I am trying to do this with /load...
    /connect walkep_apps/walkep@smpdev1
    /load Visualizations /eul walkep_apps /user smp_naps_apps /object VISUAL_20K /capitalize /remove_prefix /insert_blanks

    Hi Raja !
        I can understand that you are trying to procure Asset. to calculate depreciation of the asset in the business read you need to assign Account assignment object type for Account assignment object of the Company code.
    Procedure is as follows
    SPRO-> Financial Accounting> Asset Accounting -> integration with G/L -> Additional Account assignment object---> specify Account assignment object type for Account assignment object
    here you can make setting for your company

    Hi Everyone,

    Inbound created
    Transfer order created and confirmed.
    When doing PGR via VL32N > click Post Goods Receipt error occurs
    Profit Center does not match with Business Area
    Message no. ZGLTFI0001031
    Checked already in KE53 the Profit Center used was assigned to the Co. Code used in the PO.
    The same Profit Center was maintained in material master.
    The Plant used was assigned to proper division and business area.
    Any other ways to check?
    Btw not only in Inbound PGR the error occurs .. also happened in MIGO and MB1C.
    Tried to do other transaction involing the material, plant and profit center all give the same error.
    Any info shared is much appreciated.
    Thank you.

    this error is not a SAP standard error, it is an own message class (ZGLTFI0001), so it must be issued from a validation or user exit.  Please find the user exit, or talk to FI Team and ask what they check

  • Can one recover images from saved collection if originals are deleted??!!

    Greetings, first time user having serious probelms... Because of conflicting file numbers from two different cameras I've gone and deleted many important images from my desktop without backing them-up on my mobile Lacies.
    The thing is that I can zoom into the worked-on images at 100% in the saved collection, but of course there isn't the original file for me to work-on or export.
    I've tried exporting the file but without any success...
    Is there any way I can retrieve these missing files from the collection??
    Regards
    Doug Pearson

    Actually if the 1:1 previews are there you can, AFAIK use it if you can find it. it is basically a JPEG. I believe one way is to do aslarge a draft print as you can as a PDF in Print and then in Preview convert to TIFF and reipmort the TIFF.
    Round about, but I think this is a method that Sean McCormack has espoused before.

  • Can one use an iMac as a small business server?

    Small business.
    Less than 10 users.
    Needs:
    File server.
    FTP server.
    Web server for small blog.
    Running OS Server and all that is has to offer.
    Open office, so noise from server is an issue.
    Is the iMac an option as a dedicated server?

    Thanks for all the help in pointing me in the right direction. I decided to go with an iMac over the mini, although like the advice above, the mini would have been a perfect machine for the job. I just wanted a machine I could repurpose later as a client.
