Summary :
In SAP systems, mapping shipment costs to CO-PA profitability segments follows a standardized process. Shipment costs input as delivery costs for inbound deliveries update profitability segments similarly to planned delivery costs in purchase orders. For accurate updates, automatic profitability segment determination is vital, done by substituting a G/L account in FI with the correct profitability segment. The process also depends on the detailed characteristic data from the FI document. Customization includes setting the cost and account assignment categories in the T_56 and OME9 transactions, ensuring visibility in the 'Profitability segment' fields. Note 41103 provides additional insights into CO account assignment logic.
