Segment Issue

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We have created 3 Segments for Trading, Domestic sales Zone & Exports sales Zone. Domestic sales and exports sales are happening from the same place.

So We have created cost centers for Trading, Domestic sales & export sales separately as well have created common cost centeru2019s for both domestic and export sales.

and have assigned the cost center to the specific profit center and segment also. (For Common cost center's we have assigned segment -2 (Expert sales))

So Whatever the expenses are coming under common cost center, it is hitting to the segment 2 (Export Sales Zone) bz of the of Cost center and Profit center's assignment.

Now client has come back and said that, common expenses should not hit only to the segment 2 and it has to distribute to the both export and domestic sales zone segments.

I now required youu2019re help/guidance to meet the client requirements.

Thanks & Regards,

Then for the common expenses ywo have two options:-

At the time of booking itself, bifurecate the amount in individual cost center and book respectively

Or

At period end do the aseessment / reposting from the default cost center to other cost centers.

Hi ,

You can do amanual resposting at month end using transaction KB11N. Where you can transfer the amount from the old cost center (Common Cost Center) to the new Cost center (target Cost Center).

In case the transfer amount base if fixed or can be determined automatically, then you can use the assessment cycle defination and can run that assessment cycle at period end. Here the sender will be common cost center and receiver will be target cost center. (You can search SDN and SAP wiki etc. to find the detailed steps for it.)

Profit center and segment will automatically get derived fromthe cost center.
