or in IMG for Controlling:

Cost Center Accounting -> Actual Postings -> Actual Data Transfer -> Transfer of Personnel Costs from Human Resources (HR)

- Assign Personnel Costs to Cost Centers

- Define Substitute Cost Centers for Payroll

look in IMG documentation for description of activity

Hi Dejan

Thank you very very much for that...

when i checked in customizing, there are no entries made under the customizing node 'Define Substitute Cost Centers for Payroll' but all the cost elements are assigned to internal orders under the node 'Assign Personnel Costs to Cost Centers'

So now I have a requirement to assign the new cost center to payroll, so does it mean that i assign it under 'Define Substitute Cost Centers for Payroll'

Thank you once again for the support

HI,

the IMG path described by Dejan and me lead to the same maintenance transaction so no matter which one you use.

Regarding your additional question, read the documentation to the IMG activity.

Normally cost center information is derived from the employee's cost center assignment in HR so only some specific cases are posted using this 'Define Substitute Cost Centers for Payroll' IMG step.

But yes, there you can change the CO-object assignment, just clarify the business process first.

Hi Christian

yes you are correct, it leads to the same transaction either way...

i m still waiting on confirmation regarding the business process but as you said, if I m to maintain that on the employee Cost center assignment in HR - how would I be able to check that...

Thank you again

Hi,

employees are assigned to cost-objects (cost centers,...) in HR infotype 0001 (table PA0001).

If employees are assigned to different cost centers this can be seen in IT 0027 (table PA0027).

HI,

don't know your business process but if you dont find entries in PA00** tables its because it is not maintained in HR-employees master data.

Hi,

this can be done in HR customizing: Payroll / payroll international / Reporting for posting payroll results to accounting / Activities for AC system / assign substitute cost centers.
