Documentation

Definition

Specifies the cost center that requested the appropriation request.

Use

When you enter a requesting cost center, the system adopts the company code of the cost center as the requesting company code.

The requesting company code is most important when you create an investment measure from the appropriation request.

The requesting company code is the company code in which the asset under construction for an investment measure is managed.

You only need to enter a requesting code if the asset under construction belonging to an investment measure (order or WBS element) should be managed in a different company code than the investment measure (cross-company-code settlement of asset under construction). Otherwise the requesting company code is the same as the company code of the investment measure (order or WBS element).
