Cost centers mean different things in different organizations, which I guess is really the point of the idea isn't it...
Anyway, In OFBiz rather than manually classifying different transaction entries we have been taking the approach of trying each AcctgTransEntry back back to the source record it came from, like an InvoiceItem or an InventoryItem or a Payment or whatever, and you can do reporting based on pretty much anything...

If so they would be different Party records with the role Internal Organization, or perhaps even just different GlAccounts to categorize transaction entries.Yes, I meant cost centers from an accounting perspective.If we need to define the cost centers as different internal organizations, is it possible to us to split a transaction(payment/ receipt) to various cost centers during transaction?For example, consider I need make a payment for usage of a facility, which is also shared by another cost center. While doing the payment, I need to automatically split the payment to 2 accounts i.e. one in Cost center A, and another cost center B as per some percentage which is preset.Is it possible to do the above configuration using ofbiz ? Thanks, Mugunth
