Retraction of secondary accounts into CCA

[Former Member]

Hi all,

In a current project we are facing a situation where we have an existing allocations mechanism built on BW/BPS/ABAP, with primary and secondary costs being calculated and stored in BW. Now we have a requirement to retract all these costs (= primary and secondary) down to CCA.

I have seen that the standard retraction is only made for primary costs, whereas secondary costs are blocked. I also have seen workarounds, like changing the account category temporarily. What would be the problem of developing such workarounds in your opinion/experience? What is the reason for not retracting secondary accounts in standard CCA retractions? Do I miss a pitfall?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi Andreas,

I believe you are dealing with CCA planning?

Why should primary cost retractor will be also for secondary cost,they are posted with different methods,

Secondary cost are debiting and crediting CO objects .

Could you please provide more information about what your process ,what should it post finally in ECC?
