Difference between Business area and profit center accounting

Hi Frnds,
Can any body explain about difference between business area and profit center accounting .

Hi
Business area will have many profit centers. For example Vehicle is a business area in a company. Vehicle can be cars and Bikes etc. Here Vehicle is business area and Cars and Bike are profit centers. In broad Vehicle is a profit center. But as it has sub areas those are profit centers. So profit centers cannot be replaced with business area and vice versa. We can replace business area by Profit centre, only condition is that it should be in same controlling area. The business area is more like a business unit of a company. You can have multiple profit centers within a business area.
Main distinguish factor is that distribution and assessment in possible in profit center but not in business area.
One more distinction is that Business area need not be attached to any organisation structure. But profit centres can be created only under the controlling area. Business area can be across controlling area.
Business area concept is used for making stragic decisions by the management whereas the primary purpose of profit centre accounting is responsibility accounting.

Relation between Account Recievables and Profit center

Hi ,
Can you pls help me with the relation between the account recievables & Profit center.
Thanks

Hi,
Accounts Receivables records all account postings generated as a result of Customer sales activity.
These postings are automatically updated in the General Ledger. It is within the Accounts
Receivables Module that you can monitor aging of the receivables and generate customer analysis. The Accounts Receivable Module also integrates with the General ledger, Sales and Distribution, and Cash Management Modules.
Profit Center Accounting provides visibility of an organizationu2019s profit and losses by profit center. The methods which can be utilized for EC-PCA (Profit Center Accounting) are period accounting or by the cost-of-sales approach. Profit Centers can be set-up to identify product lines, divisions, geographical regions, offices, production sites or by functions. Profit Centers are used for Internal Control purposes enabling management the ability to review areas of responsibility within their organization. The difference between a Cost Center and a Profit Center is that the Cost Center represents individual costs incurred during a given period and Profit Centers contain the balances of costs and revenues.
Hope this helps.

Read below
Profit Center - The profit center view shows the various
internal areas of responsibilities. Objects such as cost
centers, materials, etc can be used for profit center
analysis. Profit center can be used to determine the
revenues, costs, and profitability for specfic areas of
responsibility.
Business Area - Business area forms an important part of
external reporting. Analysis of various segments, product
divisions, regions etc is possible using business areas.
Business Area: This is optional
This can be used cross compane codes
This is for Internal Purpose
It is not Legal Entity like Co Code
The transation entered in Business are, Debit total will
not tally with credit total
Since it is used for segment wise or area wise or line wise
this is used for internal report purpose only .
Balance Shhet and P & L stataments can be drawn on segment
wise
Profit Centre: Generally in terms of SAP or Finance the
meaning of Profit centre is to know the profitabilty.
In same manner , The managers wants to know the ROI from
their investments, obviously we nned to use the tool.
This ROI may be geographically or area wise or division

Business Area is an optional entry.Whenever company wants
financial statements businessarea wise we can maintain
BAs.And also we can maintain BA as Segment Wise,Product

Profit center is used to know the profits of companies.PC

Link between HR data and Work center

Dear experts,
We have assigned operators in work center through HRMS. For the purpose of making a report we require the table into which the linking of work center data and the employee is made.
In the table CRHD a field HROID is found. This is an object id which links the work center with a table either in HR or in PP which provides the link between organisational unit/ employee. Can anybody tell us the name of the table with details?
Please help us.
Thanks
Jaikishan

Dear Vittalji,
Thanks for your prompt response.
Our requirement is as follows:
We need to create a report on details of operations done by each operators / workers for a specified period. For this purpose following assignments are done.
(HR module is not implemented yet. But we have made attempt to maintain the employee master by customising HR module little bit)
1. Employee master created in HR.
2. Went to work center maintainence (CR02).
3. Selected HRMS button.
4. Selected Work Center option.
5. Clicked on HR work center
6. Given same work center as production work center.
7. Selected 'person' from ALV list data
8. Clicked on create relationship button.
9. Assigned the appropreate persons.
By doing assume this we made assignment of persons to this work center since the name of persons are getting displayed.
We have a report to list out the workcenter wise operation confirmations for analying the daily production.
Now we want to incorporate the operators (persons) name into our report by whom the operation/production was performed.
For this purpose, while refering the table CRHD, found a field HROID (an object id). To fetch the details of persons / operators those we assigned to the work center we need the tables for linking this field HROID.
Our questions are
1. Whether the process of assigning operators above mentioned are correct?
2. What are the table-links for completing our report. i.e. only for work center to concerned operators (HR).
3. What does the HR Work Center mean?
4. What are the difference between HR work center and production work center?
Your help is requested. Points will be rewarded promptly.
Thanks and Regards

Link between Plant and Profit Center

Hi,
Can any one let me know how to derive profit center for a plant or where this info is stored.
thanks,
preetham s

Hi
There is no direct relationship between a plant and profit center. Based on your configuration in the system, however, you can have various relationships. For eg, if your plant is one valuation arrea, there is a relationship for various cost center and cost elements at the valuation area level in T Code OKB9. In such a case, every valuation area relates to a plant and profit center derives the data for a plant from the cost center and cost element combination. Another way could be through the material master, where, for every plant view, you can assign a profit center. Another way of looking things could be a scenario, where every plant is also a profit center. In such a scenario, in EEC 6.0, you can draw Financial Statements also at Profit center level.
Thanks & Best Regards

Business area and profit center

plz can anyone explain me what is the diffrence between business area and profit center.

Business Area is a type of organizational unit structure, primarily used to facilitate external segment reporting across company codes, covering the company's main areas of operation. Business Areas run across company codes. The relationship is n:n. Business Area is part of FI.
Profit Center is also a type of organization unit structure, used for management/ internal controlling purposes. Dividing the company up into profit centers allows one to analyze areas of responsibility and to delegate responsibility to decentralized units, thus treating them as companies within the company. The profit centers also run across company codes. The relationship is n:n. Profit Center Accounting is part of Enterprise Controlling.
While it may look apprantly that both Business Area and Profit Center do the same kind of analysis and reporting, with in SAP internal architecture they are kept in different modules and different tables.
SAP Note 321190 provides the difference betwen Business Area and Profit Center, which you can get from SAP Service Market place.
SAP has maintained Business Area from 4.6B onwards, while there are enhancements happening in Profit Center side.

Find Link between Field, Segment, Idoc

Hi Experts
I would like to know how to find link between IDoc, Segment and Fileds.
For Example : I know field Name Then i wild like to know Which Idoc and segment contain this field name.
Thanks in advance,
Jaykumar.M.

Hi Jayakumar,
I think this is the same old question on how to find out in what tables a field may be used.
Segments are DDIC structures. A where-used-list on the data element of the field (eventually with some restrictions on the resulting objects name) should show the segments where is is used. The you can check table EDISEG recursively.

Link between G/L Account and profit center

Hello dear all,
I have an issue in Intra-company process.
I made 2 customer payment for 2 different company code:
1/ Company 1000: i have 2 line items posted (in G/L View)
2/ Company 2000: For the same Cash account and the same customer account used in my first case (with company 1000) i have 4 line item posted in the G/L view and with different " PARTNER PROFIT CENTER"
I do not know wher can i find in customizing the link between G/L Account and Profit center ?
Thank you in advance

The document splitting is active in your company, at the same time, the "zero balance" for profit center is activated in your doc split characteristics. In order to balance the profit center in General View, it creates another line item for balancing it which is the zero balancing account or split the cash account according to profit center assignment. For some cases, they are split equally that is why it is best that you assign the profit center in the cash account upfront and create line item for each payment with different profit center assignment.
For instance, there are two customer line items with different profit center assignment
Customer Line Item 1 = Assigned to Profit Center 2000 amount 500
Customer Line Item 2 = Assigned to Profit Center 3000 amount 500
When I post a payment of 1000, the Entry View is
Cash                 1000
    Customer                1000
GL View
Cash       PC 2000       500
     Customer PC 2000         500
Cash      PC 3000        500
     Customer PC 3000          500

Amount difference (0.01) between GL and profit center reporting

Hi,
After we run 1KEK for ARAP transfer to profit center there is amount difference (0.01) between GL and profit center reporting for customere reconciliation account. We checked F.5D and rerun 1KEK this issue still exit.
Any idea for it? Thanks.

hi Kyle,
thanks for the effort, but it wasn't the thing i asked for ...
what i would like to find out is:
if CO area settings are set w/o profit centers, why the system still demands profit center assignment with cost center master data (ie.)
well, i can always turn off the message, but this isn't the solution i want to use ...
i will rather open one PC (along with dummy, of course) even though those are not used for the customer ... although, this will not solve statistical posting to cc with cost element category 11 ...

Difference between Cost center and profit center

I need to know what the difference is between a cost center and a profit center eg. A work center has both a cost center and a profit center. What do they collect for that particular work center.
Thanks

hi tefo
differenc is whatever the cost involved will be collected both to the cost center and profit center, when we settle the order it will be settled in the cost element for cost center. the cost will be reflected in profit center which is assinged to the particular cost center.in profit center you can cpature revenue also which is used to map the profit loss for the concern, where as cost center will only capture the expenses
