Definition

Structure criterion for an enterprise or government based on functional aspects.

Use for Cost-of-Sales Accounting

The functional area is required to create a profit and loss account in Financial Accounting using cost-of-sales accounting. The following are examples of structure criteria:

  • Manufacturing
  • Administration
  • Sales
  • Research and development

Use for Government

The functional area is needed for Funds Management to meet legal requirements for reporting with functional aspects. You can use the functional area to represent the global targets and goals (such as public safety or city development), in particular the expenses of your organization.
