Hi,
Assessment cost element will be used in Assessment not so in Distribution.
(Original cost elements will be displayed in receiving object in the case of distribution)

Hi
Assessment:
Assessment was created to transfer primary and secondary costs from a sender cost center to receiving controlling objects. During assessment, cost centers or business processes can be used as senders .n The receivers for an assessment can be a cost center, WBS element, internal order, cost object, or a
business process. You can restrict the number of receiver categories in customizing. n Primary and secondary postings are allocated at the end of the period by means of the user-defined
key.
n During assessment, the original cost elements are summarized into assessment cost elements
(secondary cost element category = 42). As the system writes fewer totals records, the assessment
has a better performance than periodic reposting and distribution.
n Line items are posted for the sender as well as for the receiver, enabling the allocation to be recorded
exactly. The system does not display the original cost elements in the receivers. Therefore,
assessment is useful if the cost drilldown for the receiver is not important, for example, as in the case
of the allocation for the "cafeteria" cost center.
n Similar to distribution, the partner is updated in the totals record during distribution.
n You can reverse assessments as often as required.
n You use the Cycle -Segment method to define sender-receiver relationships.
Distribution:
Differences between periodic reposting and distribution are due to information content and
performance.
n For periodic reposting, no separate credit record is written on the sender for the cost element in the
summary report. Instead, the totals record for the cost element is reduced on the debit side, which
means that the original debit amount can no longer be checked there ("unclean credit"). However,
during distribution, the system writes a totals record for the credit ("clean credit"). The information
on the receiver is the same for periodic reposting and distribution ("clean debit").
n Compared with periodic reposting, during distribution, the system also updates the partner in the
totals record for the sender. This means that the partner can be displayed in the information system
on the totals record level.
n As fewer totals records are written during periodic reposting, performance is better than during
distribution. See customizing for an example with figures that illustrates this aspect. Under utilities,
make settings for the SAPscript text display, then call up the text by choosing Periodic reposting,
Distribution, or Assessment from the menu.
