FI:Business Area,Profit centre

Dear All,
Its a ECC 6.0
We have 4 different product & physically two plants Now is it possible to get different balance sheet at plant level & product wise?
Or
Is it mandatory to have different plants for each profit centre to get balance sheet at profit centre level & in this case how STO's will be apportioned.

Hi!
It is possible to have balance sheet Plant Wise. But, as per statutory compliance, I don't think product wise balance sheet is possible.
      One profit center should be allocated to only one plant. One profit center asignment can't be possible to more that one plant. In case of STO, profit center would change from supplying plant to recieving plant and same accounting entry would get generated at the time of Goods Issue from Supplying plant. At the time of GR document, no accounting document would get generated seperately for recieving plant.
Hope it will clear your doubt. Revert back for more information.
Thanks & Regards,
Taral Patel

    Hi,
    What is the difference between Business Area & Profit Centre.
    how alternative profit centre is from business are.
    any documentation available.
    Regards,
    Shekar.

    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.

Or if we mention all 3 (Business Area, Profit Centre and Segment field) in document splitting what may effect in other areas.
    Kindly guide me.

    Hi,
    Profit center and business are org units and both are used for similar purposes.
    Business area is gared on external accounting where as profit centers are used for internal accounting purposes
    Business Area
    Based on the above we can prepare Balance sheet and profit
    centre for separate product segment, geographical segment
    etc.  In India for certain companies it is the external
    reporting.
    Profit Centre
    Based on the above responsble profit centre derive the
    profit (only profit) (revenue minus expenses).  Internal
    reporting
    Thanks

  • Impact Analysis: Business Area, Profit Center changed for Sales Order type

    Hi All,
    Can you please let me know the impact of changing the Business Area and Profit Center for Sales Order Document types.
    Scenario:
    Let's say that sales document type ZOR has been used for sometime. On this document x number of sales orders have been raised, delivered and invoiced over the years.
    Now, if you change the Business Area and Profit Center what would be the business impact.
    thanks,

    Hi,
    First of all itu2019s not a good business practice to change the Business area and Profit Centre.
    However if at all l you change the Business area and Profit centre the following is the impact::
    Business Area: effects the sales order in accounts assignment at Header level.
    Profit centre: effects the accounting part at Item level
    Overall in MIS reporting w.r.t Profit and Business Analysis in Finance will be affected.
    Thanks and regards

  • Cost centre without business area

    Hi All,
    I have document splitting with business area and profit centre mandatory, along with this i have configured business area wise FSV in OBY6.
    We have  configured 10 business areas and 5 profit centres, but i have  created cost centres without business area and i dontwant to create cost centres with business area becoz junk master data in system and no control to users. also i have done configuration in OKB9 for automatic posting expences account with the combination of valuation area-business area- & cost centre, but when we are posting any financial document though MM or SD transactions like PGI or MIGO for service, system is not allowing to post financial document without business area cost centres. Error "Business Area XXXX / Cost centre XXXX is not assigned".
    After all analysis i came to know that, if we have cost centre with business area then only we can move with this set of configuration. Is it right?
    In No. what need to be done. basically we dont want to create cost centres for all Business Area
    Thanks in Advance,
    Sahil
