Hi Tony
Though I am not a CO person ( I am pure FI ) my understanding of the concept is as follows:
Controlling area same as company code refers to the creation and operation of a controlling area which is capable of having a single company code under it and wanting to manage Costs and revenues of the said company code . Therefore it is unlikely to include any other company code under this controlling area.
Cross company code controlling is the other option wherein you can have multiple company codes ( using the same fiscal year variant ) usually the individual participants of a corporate group. Here again all the company codes use the same fiscal year variant but each company code may use a different local currency. Cross Company Code controlling , as the name implies is capable of managing costs and revenues not only of individual company codes but also of the group of companies under the said controlling area. Now you might face the problem of the currency to be adopted for the corporate group for consolidated accounting since each company code uses a local currency which is different from that of its co-participant company code. Therefore, a group currency over and above the local currencies for consolidated reporting can be used .
This is the basic functionality that I have heard about. Anyways, I would also love to learn more about it just as you want to.
