Hi

AT OKB9 we define automatic additional account assignments for postings to primary cost elements.

Automatic assignment occurs during postings in external accounting (within the FI, MM, or SD components) if we did not enter a CO account assignment object (cost center, order, or project) for a cost accounting relevant posting.

This always happens in SAP in case of automatically created line item.

Examples of Automatically Created Items are:-

Discounts, exchange rate differences, and banking fees in FI, Price differences and minor differences in MM, Possible automatic additional account assignments include: Cost center, Order, Profit center (for revenue postings)

Account assignment can be made mandatory for business area, valuation area or the profit center level. We need to select the relevant mandatory account assignments

Upfront automatic accounts maintenance need to come by with business discretion considering the consultant inputs on usage.

Hope this may gives some understanding.

Respectfully,

Vyas
