Supplementary Documentation - KOKFI 0001

Use

This field is used when maintaining the company code and the controlling area for assignment control.

When maintaining the company code, this field is displayed, but cannot be changed.

Dependencies

If you choose the assignment controlling area same as company code (1) the company code must exist and the following information must have been maintained:

  • If you choose the assignment Cross-company-code cost accounting (2) you can assign more than one company code to the controlling area. These company codes must use:
    • The same number of posting periods
    • You make this setting in the fiscal year variant.
    • The same chart of accounts

      Together with the currency type, the assignment control specifies:

    • How the controlling area currency is determined
    • Whether the indicator Alternative company code currency is activated or not

      The following settings are possible:

CoCde -> COarea CurrTyp Alt.CCCur Currency

1 10 not active Tranfer CCCur

2 10 not active Transfer CCCur

2 10 active Independent CAC

2 30 active Transfer group currency

2 40 active Transfer hard currency

2 50 active Transfer index currency

2 60 active Transfer global company currency

If you choose the currency type 10, all the company codes assigned to the controlling area must use the same currency.

If you choose the assignment Controlling area same as company code the system sets the currency type to 10 (you cannot change this setting).

If at least one assigned company code is productive, you cannot change the currency type (nor, by implication, the currency).
