Rajanikanth:
Here you go:
Example, followed by config steps:
New General Ledger - Document splitting 
Suppose a vendor invoice of 1,000 EUR assigned to 2 cost centers, CC1 and CC2 (500 EUR on each). The corresponding profit centers are PC1 and PC2.
Entry view:
PK Acct Amt CC PC
31 Vendor -1000
40 Charges +500 CC1 PC1
40 Charges +500 CC2 PC2
As a result of document splitting, the system splits the vendor line item in two parts: 500 EUR on CC1 (>PC1) and 500 EUR on CC2 (>PC2):
General Ledger view (document splitting):
PK Acct Amt CC PC
31 Vendor -500 CC1 PC1
31 Vendor -500 CC2 PC2
40 Charges +500 CC1 PC1
40 Charges +500 CC2 PC2
We now enter a partial (manual) payment of 500 EUR relating to only one cost center (CC1).
The following is the result of document splitting:
General Ledger view:
PK Acct Amt CC PC
25 Vendor +250 CC1 PC1
25 Vendor +250 CC2 PC2
50 Bank -250 CC1 PC1
50 Bank -250 CC2 PC2

4.Zero balance clearing account
For account assignment objects for which you want to report a balanced set of books , the system checks whether the balance of the object is zero after splitting has occurred . If this is not the case, the system generates additional clearing items. In this activity , the GL clearing account is assigned (likely need to define a new GL account here. )

Definition: document splitting
General Ledger Accounting (FI-GL)
An automatic procedure for organizing line items in the document according to selected dimensions (such as organizing receivable lines by profit center). Moreover, you can effect a zero balance setting for selected dimensions (such as profit center or segment). The zero balance setting causes additional clearing lines to be generated on clearing accounts in the document after the document has been created.
For example, the document splitting procedure is necessary for drawing up financial statements for the selected dimensions.
