PAPM Allocation function

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I am new to PAPM, I have to set up a business case where I have to allocate amounts from a group of profit center to several other profit center groups.

Can anyone tell me which Hana table I can use ?
I created a profit center hierarchy and several cost centers (my client doesn’t use profit centers for the imputations, but cost centers).

How can I allocate the costs from my group of profit centers (sender) to my receivers ?
my structure is as follow

Hierarchy A

Profit center hierarchy1

Profit center groupA : Receiver

Profit centerA

Cost center

Profit center groupB : Receiver

Profit centerB1

Cost center

Profit centerB2

Cost Center

Profit center groupC : Sender

Profit centerC

Cost center
I thought about creating model views on ACDOCA and hierarchy tables.

However, The fields are not the same between the two tables.

Can anyone help please,

Many thanks in adva

Dear Naima,

Good day.

We wish to ask for more information on how do you want your allocation to work.

Please find below clarifications/questions for us to help you.

1. Is my understanding correct that for your sender table you wish to use an ACDOCA (from S4 System) table?
2. The output of the allocation is to be written again on S4/HANA?
3. What do you mean by "manage an allocation on a hierarchy based in PAPM"?

May we request for an example if possible, with input and output tables (with rules of the hierarchy) so that we could recommend a proper solution.

Awaiting your feedback.

Thank you and best regards,

Alex
