The purpose of this activity is to:

  1. create the opening balances for payables and receivables
  2. transfer the balance changes for payables and receivables periodically

The system determines open items and posts them periodically to Profit Center Accounting.

In contrast to other balance sheet items, payables and receivables cannot be transferred to Profit Center Accounting online. You must always transfer them periodically.

Example

Requirements

You have started distribution of open items according to profit centers or business areas by choosing General ledger -> Periodic processing -> Closing -> Regroup -> Calculate B/S readjustment in the application menu for Financial Accounting. (Transaction F.5D)

When the system transfers payables and receivables to Profit Center Accounting, it corrects any valuation variances arising from foreign currency revaluation. Under Perform Account Control for Valuation Differences Transaction 2KEM)

determine which account these adjustments are to be posted to.

Activities

If you are transferring payables and receivables to Profit Center Accounting for the first time, read the following section.

When you post payables and receivables in Financial Accounting for the first time, the system creates a "noted item" for each open item, as the document is of relevance for subsequent distribution according to profit centers. This only happens, however, if Profit Center Accounting has already been activated or you are using business area balance sheets.

Missing open items

If you started Profit Center Accounting at a later point or are not using business area balance sheets, it is possible that there are still open items in Financial Accounting. No "noted item" is created for these when you post them. For this reason, the system does not select them during transfer to Profit Center Accounting.

To transfer these open items to Profit Center Accounting anyway, proceed as follows:

  1. Make sure that activity B/S readjustment special functions has not already been performed for business area balance sheets in the period in question. If this activity has been performed, do not under any circumstances perform it again for Profit Center Accounting. This would cause serious errors to occur.
  2. Otherwise, choose General ledger -> Periodic processing -> closing -> Regroup -> B/S Readjustment -> Special functions (Transaction F.5G).
  3. When the next popup appears, choose Set up readjustment.
  4. Under Date of 3.0 Release upgrade, enter the date from which Profit Center Accounting is to be activated.
  5. Unter Setup from (posting date) enter the date from which you want to see the open items in Profit Center Accounting.

The system selects all open items which were posted in the time period you entered.

Assignment to profit centers

The open items which were posted before activation of Profit Center Accounting are transferred to the dummy profit center. This also occurs if profit centers have been assigned to the participating materials and CO objects following activation of Profit Center Accounting. Distribution to profit centers is based solely on document lines posted in Financial Accounting.

With customer enhancement F180A001, however, you can make assignments to profit centers. However, this is only possible for single-item invoices, that is, where the open item belongs to one profit center only and does not have to be distributed to more than one profit center.

If you wish to use this customer enhancement, you must set it up before you can perform the activities listed above.

The enhancement is called up in the activities Set up readjustment and . Subsequent Business Area/Profit Center Adjustment - Calculation.

This enhancement has no effect on documents which are already contained in the "note tables".

You can view the documentation on enhancements in SAP Enhancement Maintenance (transaction SMOD).

Further information about using enhancements can be found in Project Management of SAP Enhancements (transaction CMOD) under Utilities -> Online Handbook.
