accordance with local GAAP).

It is essential for group controlling for the entire group that you valuate these
businesstransactionsusinggroup productioncosts(groupview). Moreover, in
many groups the management structures do not necessarily coincide with the

Lesson Objectives
After completingthislesson, you will beable to:
• set up profit center planning and carry out both manual and automatic

• explain how profit center planning is integrated with overall business

Business Example
Profit center planning is to be implemented as an integral part of your overall
company planning.
Figure 77: Planning in Profit Center Accounting
To make it possible to control and analyze internal areas of responsibility
effectively, you should limit profit center planning to those values which can
be influenced directly by the profit centers. Since the concrete organizational
structure and scope of your company's responsibility areas depends largely
on individual factors, it is necessary to create a plan that is as flexible and
multi-dimensional as possible.

assignment of cost centers and internal orders. For make-to-order production
usingProjectSystem,youcantransfertheplanningdatafromWBSelementsor
from networks. Profitability analysis lets you transfer revenues from revenue
planning. It is possible to transfer planned values and quantities periodically
fromcosting-basedProfitabilityAnalysis(CO-PA)toProfitCenterAccounting.
(Previously it was only possible to post planning data subsequently from
account-based CO-PA.)
