Derivation of functional areas

[lorena_dogliani2]

Hi everybody:

I wonder if you can help me with the following:

New P/L accounts were created and when I'm testing them in development, the functional area stays blank.

However, when I'm testing with another account, which was the origins of the new ones, this time the functional area field is completed ok.

I don't understand why is this happening??

I've checked the FMDERIVE and there is no derivation about functional areas and FI-GL.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Lorena

HI,

Dear, functional areas can be derived into the GL account only if the Cost Sales Accounting is Active so make sure it is active and Functional are is entred into the GL master or you have set the substitution for the same..

Fortunately, there was a FI substitution working for the functional areas derivation.

Thanks anyway for your helpful information.
