codes must use the same operative chart of accounts.
All internal allocations refer exclusively to objects in
the same controlling area.

rofit center is an organizational unit in accounting that
reflects a management-oriented structure of the
organization for the purpose of internal control.Profit
Center Accounting evaluates the profit or loss of
individual, independent areas within an organization. These
areas are responsible for their costs and revenues.

controlling area that represents a location where costs
occur. Organizational divisions can be done on the basis
of functional, settlement-related, activity-related,
region/section/department related, and/or responsibility-
related, to monitor actual and plan figure standpoints
where cost is captured.

internal order means to get the raw meterial from the
godown to the production area, we hav to cofigure steps to
posting data raw meterial like meterial type, cost, etc.

serves.

find the actual cost incured and incomes gained. based on
this we can control the cost of producing products.
