Planning of Business Entities (Universal Allocation, Internal Allocation, EC-PCA)

[aarziaev22]

Hi everyone,

My client currently uses business entities as the account assignment object in SAP ECC and intends to continue using them in S/4HANA. However, the universal allocation feature does not support this object ("business entity"). As a result, they will need to resort to classic transactions for internal allocations and then transport this data to ACDOCP for analysis. They are interested in leveraging new reporting options.

Business entities are planned before participating in internal allocations, acting as sender objects. To ensure data consistency, it's necessary to transfer data to Profit Center Accounting (1KE0) before internal allocation. This transfer typically relies on classic Profit Center Accounting (PCA), which they prefer not to activate.

Has anyone encountered a similar case? How can we harmonize data without activating classic EC-PCA?

Looking forward to your insights.

Best Regards,

Aleksei

Hello,

I will answer myself on this question.

Activating classic profit center accounting in S/4 is not necessary because the data is transferred to profit center accounting automatically in the ACDOCP table.
CO objects contain the profit center in their master data. This means that the values of a CO object are automatically assigned to the associated profit center when they are transferred to ACDOCP.

Best Regards,

Aleksei
