Hi Shefali,
1) Check the required GL code and assign for CO object in edit cost element.
If you want account determination to run on the company code level, also enter the corresponding CO object (cost center, order, profit center) to complete the posting row.
2) You have to define automatic additional account assignments primary cost element postings using tran code OKB9.
Automatic assignment occurs during postings in external accounting (with in the FI, MM, or SD components) if you did not enter a CO account assignment object (cost center, order, PA segment) for a cost accounting relevant posting. This is always the case if the R/3 System automatically created the posting row in question.
Examples of Automatically Created Rows
(a) Discounts, exchange rate differences, and banking fees in FI
(b) Price differences and minor differences in MM
Possible automatic additional account assignments include:
(a) Cost center
(b) Order
You can differentiate the additional assignment according to various criteria (such as company code, valuation area, business area).
To get this, please complete the following IMG activities:
(1) Activate Cost Center Accounting in Controlling Area
