Partner profit center/Profit center billing (VBAP-PCTRF) missing in sales order during intercompany sales process.

[naveen_kaluti]

Hello All,

I am facing a issue where in the partner profit center/profit center billing (VBAP-PCTRF) filed at item level in sales order is not getting filled during inter-company sales process.

I have maintained profit center in material master for both selling and supplying company code.

In addition to this when I generate a invoice "F2" system posts to the delivering company code's profit center.

Note: profit center 9999 assigned to both company codes.

Selling company code's material master screen shot:

Supplying company code's material master screen shot:

As per my analysis:

1. The profit center field (VBAP-PRCTR) is filled in with the data maintained in material master for delivering/supplying company code and when inter-company invoice IV is created, system is posting to this profit center, which is correct as per my understanding.

2. If I maintain some substitution rule using 0KEM, and if the requirements are fulfilled system fills in the partner profit center (VBAP-PCTRF).

3. If i create a order (non-inter company) in delivering company code then correct profit center (VBAP-PRCTR) is flowing from material master.

Please help me in understanding why the data in partner profit center (VBAP-PCTRF) is not flowing in during inter-company sales.

Thanks & Regards
