Open the template you received and go to the tab 

you can find : 

  1. the list of direct production cost centers PPPP-1
  2. the list of fixed cost centers PPPP-1 & PPPP-2
  3. the allocation keys

 

 

 

 

 

 

For instance : the cost center 8035-2110 must be allocated as below : 

Receivers%
8035-100040
8035-100110
8035-10024
8035-100336
8035-100410

 

 


Costs from indirect cost centers are transferred to direct cost centers using assessment cycles and allocation structures that must be defined


The allocation structure to be used depends on the group that was defined by the FRA and that can be found in the tab 

For instance the cost center 8035-2100 belongs to the group EPRD6X

 

 

 

An allocation structure is assigned to each group 

For instance the allocation structure assigned to the group EPRD6X is CM

So it means that the cost center 8035-2100 must be settled using the allocation structure CM that replaces the secondary cost elements 99422300 for the fixed costs and 99423000 for the depreciation.
