entity relationship in CO

[Former Member]

Hello Friends,

How does the following organisation units relate to one another :

Controlling Area

Cost Center

Company Code

Business Area

Personnel Area

Personnel Subarea

What is the purpose of a controlling area and what is its entity relationship with cost center and company code or Business area?

Can a cost center or company code belong to multiple different controlling area ?

Hope you can help me please.

regards

Hi......

Controlling Area is a closed org unit used for allocation of costs. Closed becuase costs cant be allocated to a cost centre/entity outside controling area.

A Company code belongs to a single Controlling area.

More than one Company code can be assigned to a single CO area.

A cost centre belongs to a single Controlling area.Cost centres are with in controlling area.

Assign points if useful
