ZCBS is the code of the alternative cost centers hierarchy that is mainly used for reporting purposes (ex: Co$ta - Reports , Fixed costs )
You can display the ZCBS hierarchy
- in the Google Spreadsheet (be careful, it may not be the last version)
- in SAP using the transaction KSH3 - Display cost center hierarchy
You can also use the report FC - Cost centers master data to display all cost centers with their assignement in the hierarchy ZCBS.
All active cost centers must be included in ZCBS according to the following principles
From , the groups beginning with Z will be used exclusively for the CBS cost centers of ECO
The CBS cost centers of SCO must be included in nodes beginning with S
This rule does not apply to other nodes, in particular ENTRP, which are still used by SCO and ECO.
1. There is a direct link between the first level of the ZCBS hierarchy and the Activity 1
CBS cost centers
- All cost centers included in the groups ZCBS-CORPO & SCBS-CORPO Corporate Function & ZCBS-FUNCT & SCBS-CORPO FUNCTION SERVICES are assigned to the Activity 1 CBSS in WP1 (=IECRA00569) or 50 in PF1.
