Cost Centre Segreggation

[CMA_Rishabh_Jain]

Dear All,

Currently I am working in an organization dealing in Distribution of Electricity, In this organization we are going to review and change the cost centre's. Therefore I need your help in learning how cost centre's work in SAP, along with any SAP Documentation related to it. Also, can we have multi level cost centre in sap or cost group where I can make a group of multiple cost centre and get reports related to cost according to it.

Thanks & Regards

Cost centers are cost drivers that carry the costs for any department, location, or person. There is a structure developed at the Controlling Area level called the Standard Hierarchy. For instance, if the Electricity department requires separate reporting, you can create a new node in the existing Controlling Area hierarchy. This node, also known as a cost center group, can be used for reporting and allocation purposes.

If you need to change any details of a cost center, you can modify specific attributes. However, you cannot change integrated objects like the profit center or cost element category once costs have been posted.

For further understanding, you can explore free learning content on SAP.

Hi @CMA_Rishabh_Jain 

You could look at Fiori App "Manage Cost Center" (Fiori ID - F1443A) to display existing cost center, create new or modify the existing ones. The SAP Help documentation for the fiori app is as below:

SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library (ondemand.com)

There is also a fiori app to display the line items for a cost center (Firoi App: F4023), which might be helpful for reporting, that you are looking for. The help documentation on the same is available as below:

Hello Rishabh, 

You can create additional hierarchy for cost center reporting and group relevant cost centers. Use KSH1 to create hierarchy and group cost centers.
