If you do not use the Enterprise Organization function, create the standard hierarchy for profit centers in this IMG activity and make any necessary changes.

The standard hierarchy is a tree structure for organizing all the profit centers belonging to a controlling area. In the standard hierarchy, there are two types of node as structure elements:

  • Profit centers can be assigned directly to an end node.
  • Summarization nodes do not themselves contain profit centers. Instead, they summarize other nodes (end nodes or summarization nodes).

The system divides the nodes into these types automatically. If you have already assigned profit centers to a node, you can no longer attach any subnodes to it. Similarly, profit centers cannot be assigned to a node that already contains subnodes.

Prerequisites

The following prerequisites apply for this function:

Recommendation

First create a special group for the dummy profit center of the controlling area. You create this special group directly under the hierarchy root node, which has generally already been created automatically. This makes it easier later in the information system to display the nonassigned costs and revenues for this controlling area.

Activities

Subsequently, in the definition of the master data, the actual profit centers are assigned to the hierarchy areas. With this function, only the hierarchical structure for the profit center groups of the standard hierarchy is defined.

Further notes

You have the option of copying the standard hierarchy of Cost Center Accounting so that you can use it as a template.

Notes on transporting

You can transport the Customizing settings for Profit Center Accounting under Transport Connection.
