Assign Cost Center for Internal Consumption in Sales Order

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I have a scenario is that Marketing Manager want to give a gift to his customer, the expense of this gift will be charged to Marketing Department. As the law, the invoice of this gift is required with the posting as below:

Dr Expense acc 5000 USD

Cr Revenue acc 5000 USD

(Assume that there is no tax)

I create a Sales Order with the Product is the Gift that will give to customer, and I also assign the Cost Center as Marketing Department. The problem is when I generate the billing document from this Sales Order, the system throw the error: Cost Center XYZ (Marketing Department) is not allowed posting revenue. This error happen because I don't want to post revenue to Cost Center, I want only Expense will be posted to Cost Center. But because I assigned Cost Center in header of Sales Order, system will post both revenue an expense to this CO object. Now what I want to do is post Expense to Cost Center, revenue to Profit Segment. Is it possible and what I need to do if it is possible?
