Internal goods movements in Logistics (stock transfers, materials usage for production orders, and so on) can lead to an exchange of goods between profit centers.

To be able to show the material flow correctly in Profit Center Accounting, you need to look at the profit center as an independent company. This means that a sale is made by the sending profit center, while the receiving profit center posts a goods receipt.

This way of looking at postings in Profit Center Accounting cannot be achieved based solely on the original posting.

You therefore need to make an additional account assignment. A separate account determination generates additional posting lines on the basis of the original document, and then posts these in Profit Center Accounting.

The source document is not changed. Therefore this has no effect on Financial Accounting (FI). However, note that these lines are also updated in FI if your organization is using transfer prices and storing the profit center valuation method in FI (see the example below).

For some goods movements, it is not useful to make an additional posting. These goods movements are given a special handling. The table that contains these exceptions is fully maintained and delivered by SAP in the standard system. You only need to define special handling if you require this for movement types that you defined yourself.

In this step, you enter the accounts that you need in order to represent internal goods movements in Profit Center Accounting for each controlling area:

  • Accounts for internal revenue
  • Accounts for internal balance sheet changes
  • Accounts for deliveries from profit centers

Stock transfer of material M1 from plant 01 to plant 02 using the legal valuation method in Profit Center Accounting and in FI

FI posting:

Stock to stock 1,000

EC-PCA posting:

PrCtr material M1 plant 01 --> internal revenues (1,000)

--> Internal B/S change 1,000

PrCtr material M1 plant 02 --> delivery from profit center 1,000

--> Internal B/S change (1,000)

In this case, no original postings are transferred. Instead, all the postings are represented in Profit Center Accounting by additional postings.

Material withdrawal of a semifinished product 1 from plant 1 and plant 2 using transfer prices

The stock value using legal valuation is 1,000
The stock value from the PrCtr view is 1,200
The transfer price is 1,500

FI posting:

In FI, only legal valuation is recorded.

Change in stock (plant 2) to stock (plant 1) 1,000

EC-PCA posting:

EC-PCA posting: EC-PCA stores the profit center valuation.

PrCtr material M1 plant 01 --> internal revenues (1,500)

--> Internal B/S change 1,200

PrCtr material M1 plant 02 --> delivery from profit center 1,500

--> Internal B/S change (1,500)

Material withdrawal of semifinished product material 1 (profit center 1) for production order 2 (profit center 2) using legal valuation in Profit Center Accounting and FI

For material withdrawals, the costs on the receiver profit center are shown, plus an internal sale is assigned to the sender profit center. On the receiving side, it may be necessary (consumption of semifinished goods) to correct the posting under "Change in stock" with a posting "Delivery from profit center".

FI posting:

Change in stock SF to stock 1,000

EC-PCA posting:

Profit center 1 --> Internal revenue (1,000)

--> Internal B/S change 1,000

Profit center 2 --> B/S change SF 1,000

--> Internal B/S change (1,000)

--> Delivery from profit center 1,000

The two lines "Change in stock" on the receiver side cancel each other out. The transaction is an external delivery from the point of view of the receiver profit center, which is reflected in the line "Delivery from profit center".

Material withdrawal of a semifinished product 1 (profit center 1) for production order 2 (profit center 2) using transfer prices

The stock value using legal valuation is 1,000
The stock value from the PrCtr view is 1,200
The transfer price for the semifinished material is 1,500

FI posting:

In FI, only legal valuation is recorded.

Change in stock SF to stock 1,000

EC-PCA posting:

EC-PCA posting: EC-PCA stores the profit center valuation.

Profit center 1 --> Internal revenue (1,500)

--> Internal B/S change 1,200

Profit center 2 --> B/S change 1,500

--> Internal B/S change (1,500)

--> Delivery from PrCtr 1,500

Requirements

You must already have created FI profit and loss accounts with the "Only Automatic Posting" indicator.

  • Accounts for internal revenue
  • Accounts for internal balance sheet changes
  • Accounts for deliveries from profit centers

Cost elements are not permitted.

Activities

Choose the material types for which you want to represent goods movements between profit centers.

Note that only the material types you choose here will be taken into account in the representation of material flows between profit centers.

You may want to leave out material types for raw materials or operating supplies which have little value. If you do not choose these material types, only the consumption postings will be debited to the profit center on the receiver side.

All in all, you can make account determination dependent on the following objects:

Blank entries (for example, without a valuation class) are interpreted as generic entries. However, the material type must have at least one entry.

In the field No receiver records you enter whether the system should ignore the data records on the receiver side.

This might make sense if you also want to represent goods movements of raw materials between profit centers. In this case, the system posts a "material usage" on the receiver side. It is not necessary to correct the "change in stock" as shown in the third and fourth examples.
