Hi,

The dummy profit center is updated in data transfers whenever the object to which the data was originally posted (cost center, order, and so on) is not assigned to a profit center. This ensures that the data in Profit Center Accounting is complete. You can later send the data on the dummy profit center to the other profit centers using assessment or distribution.

Regards,

Eli

Hi

If any document which is not posting to normal profit centre due to any reasons then dummy profit centre picks the document and posts within it. We need to correct/adjust manually afterwards to make the dummy profit centre zero
