Hi Maleeq,
to bring in some clarification. If you consume material from stock, where the MM account determination for the P/L side is a cost element, the system requires you to enter a CO object. In this case the profit center is (always!!!!) derived by the CO object, e.g.:
- cost center
- PP order
- internal order
- sales order (in MTO scenario)
- WBS element
etc.
If you have PP with a FG as material to be produced, the PP order gets the PC from the FG and all (always!!!!!) postings on this PP order will get the PC from the PP order. This is valid of course only for the P/L side. The stock change/reduction will be credited on the profit center of the RAW.
And yes, in the material, there is by plant a profit center (marc-prctr), but relevant for PC derivation on the P/L side is the CO account assignment (if cost element).
If you have a material consumption, where no cost element is created (ususally for the consumption during SD delivery), in this case, the PC is derived from the material master (plant wise).
