Posting supplier invoice

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

In SAP S/4HANA my system is integrated with controlling, and need to perform cost of sales accounting to report profit and loss per profit center.

When posting a supplier invoice to a primary cost account, which field is mandatory by standard procedures? Cost center? Funcional Area?

Thanks in advance and best regards!

If you are purchasing any service or expense related items, then you can post them to Cost center and Functional Area. Functional area will assigned either in the G/L Account or Cost center. based on this assignment, it gets posted when you use those G/L Accounts or Cost centers.

If you are procuring the Materials and Goods, then it will be posted to Profit center.

Please google it for more details as these have been answered many times in this forum.

Thanks,

NSK
