Hi ,

Have a look at this path

1)CA/AR/AP-Business Transactions --Define specification and default values for write- off

2)CA/AR/AP-Business Transactions --Define specification and default values for mass write-off

In these paths the value of "DVtn CO Acct Assgts"can be " blank " ,"1" and "2". press F1 in these field and have a look at what options these give you in determining your CO account assignments.Also have a look if industry specific event of 5030 is there in your system .

Hi ,

I think rather than using the event to update the profit center , you can use option "2" in the field i have mentioned in the above post.This would result in profit center being updated from "R001" i.e tcode EK02 . In EK02 maintain

CO acct assgmts=X and CO acc. as= "ANYTHING" against the Expense/revenue G/L of Baddebts written off .

Note you can define the CO acc. as= "ANYTHING" in the following path

CA/AR/AP--Basic functions --Posting and Documents--Documents -Define Account assignments for automatic postings -Define CO account assignment Keys ,here you can give your cost centre and profit centers etc.

If still this doesnot fulfill your requirement you can look at the following notes to gain full information

1) 1468167 - Deriving the profit center in Contract A/R & A/P .

2) 1473984 - Profit center derivation in the utilities industry (IS-U) .

Providing logic for event 5030 will be difficult unless i know on what basis you want to update your profit center ,suggest you try the above method and the notes before looking into enhancing the event .

Tough i think you can take a close look at option"1" in my above mentioned path if you want to derive the profit center from the general ledger items of the documents to be written off .
