DOC Splitting in New GL and Profit center accounting activation

103 Views

Dear All,

I am in a dilemma regarding the following -

We are activating doc splitting with profit center and segment as characteristics.

1) While maintaining Controlling area settings(OKKP) - do we need to activate "Profit Center Accounting" component?

2) Similarly, in IMG-Controlling - Profit Center Accounting- Basic Settings-Controlling Area Settings-Maintain Controlling Area Settings (0ke5), do we need to maintain any settings?

I am of the opinion that ,based on the SAP Note - 826357, that we need not activate PC accounting as it is built into New GL Accounting.

I am also of the opinion, again based on the note, that we can use classic PC accounting, but the note recommends and I quote

we do not recommend you do this on a long-term basis due to the increased data volume and the increased time and effort required, and in the case of active document splitting, the update response changes.

But I am not able to come to a conclusion.

In earlier implementations, I activated PC accounting in OKK5 in New GL doc split scenario. So keeping that in mind, pl guide me.

Thanks & regards,

Gov
