Supplementary Documentation - SAKNR_B 0001
Use
The SAP system uses the following fields (chart of account-dependent) to determine whether to create primary or secondary cost elements during background processing:
- Account from
- Account to
- Cost element category
You must maintain the cost element category.
Note
For secondary cost elements the system enters the text for the corresponding cost element.
For primary cost elements the system uses the text from the corresponding G/L account in Financial Accounting.
The cost element category is used by the system to determine the way the Account from and Account to fields are filled.
The following applies in this regard:
- Primary cost elements
Enter an account interval (Account from, Account to).
For all general ledger (G/L) accounts within the interval, background processing creates a primary cost element of the category specified. The primary cost element has the same key as the G/L account.
To create only one cost element, you need only enter the start of the interval (Account from). The system automatically sets this same account as the end of the account interval.
A G/L account of the same name must already exist for this cost element.
- Secondary Cost Elements
Enter a single value (Account from) only. Make no entry in the Account to field.
The background job creates a secondary cost element of the category and key specified.
