I want to change the profit center of a sales document by item in Manage Substitution/Validation Rul

[keita]

Manage Substitution/Validation Rules > Business Context
Profit Center Derivation in Sales Documents > Substitution Type: Substitute with field/function cannot be used

I can only use Substitute with Content

○What I want to do
I want the profit center of the details at the time of order to be "Sales office code + item profit center"

Please let me know the following:
1. Can it be used depending on how it's used?
2. How to use it
3. Is it scheduled to be released in the future?

Thank you in advance.

I have solved this problem.

My understanding was wrong from the start.

X: Assign the item selected in the field/function to the profit center

○: Assign the profit center in the profit center master corresponding to the item selected in the field/function

Example: Profit center ⇒ Profit center_Sales office

Profit center: 1111
Sales office: AAAA
Profit center master: 1111_AAAA

When linking items in the field/function ⇒ Profit center + _ + Sales office
Profit center will contain 1111_AAAA.
When linking items in the field/function ⇒ Profit center + Sales office
No assignment will be made to the profit center.

Thank you to everyone who answered my question.

Hello,

Currently, the ‘Substitute with field/function’ option cannot Sales - Profit Center Determination be used directly for profit center derivation in sales documents. The available substitution method is ‘Substitute with Constant’. You want to derive the profit center using a combination of ‘Sales office code + item profit center’.

Answers to Your Questions

1. Can it be used depending on how it’s used?

   • The current functionality does not allow using ‘Substitute with field/function’ for profit center derivation in sales documents. This means you cannot directly combine fields Profit Center
2. Will it be possible in future release?

• No such schedule.
