Summary :
To address the rapid growth and large size of the GLPCA table in Profit Center Accounting containing actual line items, it is essential to implement the following recommendations:
1. Activate line item updates selectively via Transaction 1KEF by specifying necessary controlling areas and years after determining their criticality to business processes.
2. Ensure data transferred from preceding modules is streamlined by auditing detail levels in Transaction 3KEH, where additional accounts for flow transfer can be adjusted.
3. Adopt document summarization strategies from Release 4.5B onwards using Transaction 0KE8 to reduce detail granularity in Profit Center Accounting, offered differently for earlier releases.
4. Regularly assess data retention requirements and archive inactive data accordingly using the specified archiving objects based on your SAP release version, enhancing the system's performance and efficiency.
5. Consult SAP Notes like 198519 for summarization strategies, 91615 and 370299 for archiving details, and 203545 to identify data assignments relevant to organizational units and periods, ensuring optimal management of the GLPCA table without compromising data integrity and compliance.
