You can only use the functional area in Funds Management Government if you have made the appropriate settings for the functional area in the Customizing of Financial Accounting.

You make these settings in the Customizing of Cost of sales accounting, as the functional area is also used for cost of sales accounting in Financial Accounting. Cost of sales accounting is a procedure for generating the profit and loss statement for organizations. Organizations that use Funds Management do not usually use cost of sales accounting. However, the functional area can be used here as an additional account assignment.

You must execute the following steps in the given order. To do so, select Financial Accounting Basic Settings -> Company Code -> Cost of Sales Accounting in the Customizing of Financial Accounting and then the relevant steps:

  1. Define your functional area. To do this, select Define functional area. Feasible functional areas include public safety and town planning.

    Note: You should be aware that a combination of fund and functional area includes the complete fund center and commitment item hierarchy, therefore, the number of possible combinations of funds, functional areas, funds centers and commitment items affects performance.
  2. Activate cost of sales accounting for preparation. This makes the Functional area field ready for input in the master data for G/L accounts, cost types and some of the CO account assignment objects. To do this, select Activate cost of sales accounting for preparation.
  3. Define the derivation procedure for the functional area. To do this, select Define derivation procedure.

    Recommendation: In principle, you should select the setting FA on entry screen in order to ensure that the functional area can also be derived for commitments postings.

    Warning:

    The derivation of the functional area takes place in accordance with the rules described under Rules for deriving the functional area for postings. This documentation does not yet take into account that postings can also be made to Balance sheet accounts if the appropriate settings are made for the derivation procedure. You should also be aware that you cannot define a functional area in the master record of a balance sheet account.

  4. Enter the functional area in the master data of the specific objects. You can find the step under Enter functional area.

    Note: If you use Funds Management integrated with Controlling, you should ensure that the functional area can always be derived from this master data. In this situation you should avoid using substitution.
  5. You can define a substitution for deriving the functional area. You should only execute this step if your requirements for the derivation of the functional area are not met by entering the functional area in the master data of some of the account assignment objects. You can find the steps under Set up substitution for cost of sales accounting .

    Note: If you have selected the derivation procedure setting recommended above - FA on entry screen - you must be aware of the following: You should only define your substitution on the basis of fields that also exist in structure COBL. You must also check that the substitution is only defined in fields that exist at the point in time that they are being entered.
  6. Activate cost of sales accounting for your company codes. To do this, select Activate cost of sales accounting.

Note: The step Set up ledger for cost of sales accounting is not required in Funds Management.

Activities

You should be aware that the documentation for the functional area in Financial Accounting does not include examples from the public sector.
