Derivation in COPA using BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST

Hi all,

should be possible to use the correspondant feature that we have in the manual journal entry of the profitability "Derivation" and recall it into the BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST or in a BAPI to post journal entry in FI with profitability in COPA? and in case which are the step to do it?

Thanks, Davide

Set up derivation rules in COPA customizing. Call BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST with CO‑PA relevant account assignments. The system will then derive profitability characteristics automatically, just like in manual journal entry.

Were the table parameters CRITERIA (characteristics) and VALUEFIELD passed to the BAPI to allow correct CO-PA derivation?
