How to manage Document splitting on Profit Center

[altaz]

Dear SAP community,

I try to configure the Document Splitting on Profit Center.

For that, on the SSCUI Excel file, I found the following configuration points 100047 and 120100 SSCUI ID (respectively: Document Splitting Characteristics and Edit Constant for Nonassigned Processes). (See attachment file)

I do not understand the purpose of those points.

Could you help us in defining the different steps to manage the document splitting.

Thank you in advance for your help,

Best regards,

Laure Altazin

Dear Laure,

For the Document Splitting Characteristics configuration - ID100047:

Currently in S/4 HANA Cloud the splitting is only supported by 2 characteristics: Profit Center and Segment.

Mandatory Field

When you define the check box of the Mandatory field for one of this 2 characteristics the system needs to input a value for each balance statement item of the document. Let’s assume that the characteristic defined is profit center. E.g. if the document that you are posting doesn’t find an document split logic, the system will insert a dummy profit center on the line items, in order to guarantee that you have a profit center to each balance statement item of your document. Opposed to that if you don’t mark the check box for this field and the system do not find the splitting logic it will return an error.

Zero Balance Field

This field is set when the aim is to have a full Balance Sheet by Profit Center or Segment. When you set the indicator, the system checks during posting whether the balance for the characteristic is equal to zero. If this is not the case, the system generates in the document additional clearing lines on clearing accounts that achieve the zero balance.

The standard delivered configuration in S4 HANA Cloud is set as Mandatory Field for Profit Center and Zero Balance field set.

For the Constant Assignment ID 120100

This setting it is to define the “dummy” profit center or segment that I have explained before. SAP delivers a standard dummy profit center YB900 and the segment 1000_C. If the customer wants to assign another dummy profit center or segment (e.g. to respect naming conventions for example), it is possible to change this standard assignment.

Note that in Cloud it is not possible to leave this constants as empty fields.

The document types, business transactions and number ranges for document splitting are delivered as standard in S4 HANA Cloud and cannot be changed/configured.

I hope this helps!
