Hi,

Firstly, when you are performing a normal billing and subsequently posting a customer's invoice against the account, it should normally go into a profit centre and not a cost centre.

Check in transaction code EK02, what has been assigned in the CO account assignment-Profit centre or Cost centre. against the main\sub combination of invoicing for the particular company code.

If a Cost centre is assigned, then change it to a corresponding profit centre.

Cost centre are assigned only in those transactions where in it adds to the cost of an organization like bad debts etc.

Normally revenues do not get booked in the cost centres.However, if you want to book revenues under a cost centre, then take the cost centre and go to T.code KS02. Underthe control tab, untick the "Actual revenues" and "Plan revenues"

Hope it helps...

Thanks,
