Why we cannot assign business area to company code ?

Answer Posted / christophe

business areas are used for reporting reasons to be able to
build a complete P&L and Balance Sheet within one company
code. it doesn't really make sense to assign them to
company code, what makes more sense is to assign them to
sales areas or plants so that derivation of business areas
can be done using these org units which are below company
code. if you want to build reports accross several company
codes, you can use operating concerns (or characteristics
of COPA), or controlling areas.
