Allocation of cost from one segment to other

[Former Member]

Dear All

In my client setup we have each product line as Profit Center and we have different branches and each branch is defined as segment.

So i have made the segments independent of Profit centers. All the sales done will pick the respective branch segment from sale office for which i have defined a user exit at line item. My issue is there are some common expenses which are posted

to common cost center and profit centers however these need to be allocated to each product ( which is profit center) based on the branches ( which is segment)

Currently i am not able to figure out how i can allocate these expenses from one segment to other with or without combination

of profit center. in my setup segments are not related to profit centers.

If some one can give me a solution or way around to manage this would be of great help

Hi

SEGMENT field is a part of Tables FAGLFLEXA/FLEXT.. Hence, it would affect only FI reports....

The allocations would create 2 new line items in the FI tables FAGLFLEXA..

Hi Athar,

In my opinion, you should create PCA assessment cycles from New GL and not COPA assessment cycles...

I assume you are referring to the SEGMENT feature of New GL and not any thing else...

Create cycle from FAGLGA31and choose the desired SEGMENT as the sender and desired segment as the RECEIVERS

hi..

You creat COPA Assessment cycle in KEU1 and execute the cycle in KEU5.

While creating the cycle carefully defin your requirements.

for any help revert back.
