Cross Company Code Distribution

[Former Member]

The client wants to create a distribution which totals the activity for a series of accounts in one Co Code/Cost Center.

Then, they want to use a single  GL account to transfer the total amount to a different Co code and Cost Center.

Since they want a gl posting, I believe we have to use distributions but  I don't see a way to go across company codes.

Suggestions?

Thanks

Hi

if you mean that you need to assign more than one company code to same controlling area .. first you have to go to T-code OKKP

check the folder on the controlling Area

in the Assignment control   field   CoCd->CO Area is  Cross-company-code cost accounting which will  allows the controlling area to have more than one company code assigned

then back and choose the controlling area and click on the left side of the screen " Assignment of company codes"

and enter the companies codes that you need to have the same controlling area

take into your consideration that there are consistency prerequisites, such as chart of accounts, currency type, and fiscal year variant, are met.

For FI entry with trace to original sender, you need to use Distribution.

I feel if you have Cross company posting activated at CO area level. You should be able to create Distribution cycle.

I agree Nitesh but I am not seeing how to identify the receiving company code.

Hi Jan;

     Have you solved your issue or not yet?

Kindly I may need your support because I have almost same issue, but perhaps what I have is bit easier.

I have one company code with many cost centers and at end of the year we need to distribute all of the incurred expenses on such company code to another many company codes with different cost centers.

Ex:

Company Code 1000

Cost Center X    20000 USD

Cost Center Y    30000 USD

Cost Center Z    50000 USD

So the total is    100,000 USD to be distributed on another company codes

Company Code 2000

Cost Center K    This cost center to carry 15,000 USD

Cost Center L    This cost center to carry 10,000 USD

Company Code 3000

Cost Center A   This cost center to carry 30,000 USD

Cost Center B   This cost center to carry 20,000 USD

Cost Center C   This cost center to carry 25,000 USD

If it can be done can you kindly guide how to do and what are the prerequisites

Thanks in advance;

Kind regards;
