In the process of implementing resource related billing between company codes in ECC 6.0 environment. Everything is progressing well up until the point of profit center determination. The challenge I am facing is that the company views profit center determination a little differently than most. For example, if we have person A's time from company A being sold to company B, ideally we would derive the profit center from that material/plant combination. However, the company looks at things more from a project view. If person A was charging time to company B project / WBS with profit center 1401AU01 tagged to it, the current customized sol'n finds the profit center to be 1401CA01 (for example). The '1401' being derived from the profit center on the project / WBS, and the CA01 being the company code for which the employee is working for maintained in HR table PA0001.
I have spent some time working through this and trying options. First was in exit EXIT_SAPLV46H_001. This 'seemed' to work well, as you pass through the code we put in place there, but looks to get trumped further down the line after you pop out of the exit.
Have been through other spots as well --> 0KEM (substitution), have looked at the derivation rules for ideas there also. The real challenge I see so far is that configuration suggests that you must have account assignment 'E' in the mix, and this basically kills the WBS on the contract line item(s), thus limiting you access to the core data.
Any "outside the box" thoughts are welcome here if you have them. At this point I am thinking of dropping DP93 transactional access, and seeing if I can drive an IV invoice in parallel off the source DMR going to the customer. Again, thanks for anyone's thoughts.
Regards,
Jason
