Dear Experts,
I need your expert advice about our requirement on Activating Business area for Company Code in SAP ECC 6.0.
Our client wants to see location-wise Trail balances and Financial statements, hence he is insisting us to activate Business area functionality to track Financial statements different location wise. Although we are in ECC 6.0, client doesn't want to go Profit center wise segment accounting. he is mainly looking about Business area as we cannot use PCA, as Profit Centres are not mapped as locations in our configuration.
Kindly advice us what could be the red flags/ showstoppers if we were to activate the Business Area functionality in Ecc 6.0. Also what precautions should be taken to do this scenario and what could be the impact once we activate Business areas for this new Company Code.
Also as per our understanding although SAP will be supporting Business Areas in future, there will no further enhancements on Business Areas. So in this scenario should we go ahead with Business Area Activation.
Please advice.
Thanks & Regards,
Prathamesh P
