Sales from Branch A but delivered by Branch B, Sales should be recorded in PC of Branch A.

Hi Everyone,

Scenario:

Order and Billing is recorded at profit center of plant A (branch/sales office A), but plant B (branch/sales office B) will do the delivery to customer. Both Plant A and Plant B are assigned to a single sales org. Requirement is that the sales should be recorded at the supposed profit center of Plant A (Branch A).

I am aware that we can change the profit center in the sales order to be the profit center of plant A (or do profit center substitution using sales office A). However, on the accounting perspective, is this the correct way to do that? if not, would you know how to cater this business case as this is not intracompany sales as well, I believe.

If I understood you correctly, your requirement is order/billing is done by branch A and delivery is done by branch B. Please correct me if I am wrong on the same.

You can map as third party billing in this scenario.
Please create branch B as a vendor.

Hi Radhesham,

Thank you for your response. Yes, your understanding is correct. They are of the same sales org.

I am just curious, on the revenue/accounting recognition, what's wrong with just modifying the profit center in sales order item from branch B profit center to branch A profit center?
