Cost Center R An organizational unit within a controlling area that
represents a defined location of cost incurrence.
The definition can be based on:
* Functional requirements

* Allocation criteria
* Physical location

Valid From R The start of the validity or effectivity period of an object

Example:

Example:
PROSERVICES G&A
Description R Enter a name for the object in this field.

Example:
PROSERVICES G&A


Person Responsible R An element that defines a feature. You must enter the
person or persons responsible when you create a feature.
Example:
Clay Swarts
Department R In this field, you can enter the name of the department to
which the cost center belongs. It then can be used for
evaluations.
Example:
GS
Cost Center Category R The master data of an activity type includes one or more
cost center categories. The activity type may be used only
by cost centers of the appropriate categories.
Example:
G
Hierarchy area R To create cost centers, you require a structure in master

data maintenance to which you can assign cost centers.
You create this CO structure, the standard hierarchy, when
you create a controlling area. If this hierarchy is not present
during controlling area maintenance, the system
automatically creates the highest node there.
Example:
AA000000
Company Code R The smallest organizational unit of Financial Accounting for

which a complete self-contained set of accounts can be
drawn up for purposes of external reporting. This includes
recording of all relevant transactions and generating all
supporting documents required for financial statements.
Example:
1038


Profit Center R An organizational unit in Accounting that reflects a
management-oriented structure of the organization for the
purpose of internal control. Operating results for a profit
center can be analyzed using either the cost of sales
approach or the period accounting approach.
By analyzing the fixed capital as well, you can expand your
profit center for use as an investment center.

71730000

address (street and city).
