Level 3: Create Divisions
In this level you will create lower group levels under the company code for Divisions. Select Cost Center Group
for the company code and click the Create button. From the pull-down menu, select Lower Level
Group. The system will create a cost center group as a lower level under the company code cost center group.
Enter code 1000 for the group and overwrite the field’s content with the group name —Corporate.
Click the Enter button.
For this exercise, you also need to create the following Divisions: 2000 – Admin & Finance, 3000 – Marketing
& Sales, and 4000 – Technical Area. These should be at the same Cost Center Group Level as 1000 - Corporate.
Select the corporate cost center group you just created and then click the Create button. This will
allow you to create a same level group for the remaining divisions. Click
on the pulldown
menu. Update the group name with information for the next division—2000 – Admin & Finance—and
then click the Enter button. Repeat this step to complete the remaining cost center groups for the division
using the data in Table 18-5, which you saw earlier in the section “Define the Standard Hierarchy.” Upon
completion, your hierarchy will look like the one in Figure 18-19.
