Default profit center for bank charges and exchange rate.

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a query regarding allocating cash receipts against AR invoices using F-32. I would like to charge of the bank charges and realized gain/loss to the same profit center as the AR invoice. But when i try to do so, SAP defaults to a different profit center rather than the profit center where the invoice is recorded. How can i change the settings so that the bank charges and exchange rate goes to the same profit center as the AR invoice?

Your response will be very much appreciated.

thank you,

Hi

We solved similar requirement by substitution (t-code OBBH) with ABAP code in an exit.

Hi Nimitt,

Check in OKB9 you have assigned Cost Center Determination by Profit Center.

If you inherit Profit Center from the invoice, it could work but this is not allways the case. Sometimes u automatically assign PC to bank account with FAGL3KEH

Hi Gustavo,

Your suggestion was helpful but in this case i have two GL accounts which need to be assigned to profit centers A,B,C,D&E so we can match the P&L costs to the AR invoice profit center.

But when i use f-32 Clear Customer, SAP defaults to profit center C even when i try to select A,B,D or E.

How can i make sure the entry is being posted into the correct profit center without assigning the GL account to a default profit center?

Your suggestion will be very much appreciated.

Regards,

Hi Nimitt,

That's the part "if you inherit Profit Center from the invoice it could work, but it's not always the case" =(.

Profit Center is more on NewGL side then Classic GL and F-32 is Classic GL.

Customer accounts don't have PC assigned by default, GL Accounts do (only exceptions are downpayments). Because of NewGL, in Profit Center Scenario & Profit Center field Mandatory you have PC in all line items (including vendor/customers) inherited from the G/L Account, or other document in case of payments.

You will have to do as Former Member suggests, OBBH sbustitution and ABAP Code.

Search from FAGLFLEXA line items with customer and assign the proportion and Profit Center you posted.

Kind Regards
