No Profit Center analysis in Incoming and Outgoing payment

[Former Member]

Hi,

Did anyone know the reason why there is no profit center in incoming and outgoing payment? Customer is having multiple outlets and they need to know the daily collection and payment from each outlet. We are recommending to use profit center=outlet. There is only project code on both Incoming and Outgoing payment header and it had been used as department analysis.

Any solution on this or we need to write script to update the UDF=Outlet in incoming payment and outgoing payment into journal entries?

There is a "Distribution Rule" field available in these documents which is used for profit centres

Hi,

The functionality profit center is not available for

payments in 2005 version.

You can use distribution rules in payments in 2007 version.

At present, you will have to manually update journal entries

with profit centers.

What is the purpose for distribution rules in Outstanding invoice list in incoming payment? I try to attach the analysis there and post incoming payment but it will not appear in Journal entries which defeat the main purpose.

The problem face by customer is that they had many outlets and finance department in HQ needs to monitor daily collection from each outlets.

The desired outcome by customer is:

Dr Bank [profit center=Outlet A] XXX

Cr Customer XXX

Eventually print out reports in XLR as

Outlet A Outlet B Outlet C

Bank XXX XXX XXX

Profit Center in SAP is technically Cost Center accounting in general accounting terms. In does not have a purpose to be available on the Incoming / outgoing payments
