Statistical vs Real Postings


During posting, only a real account assignment object can be transferred. The only exception to this rule is the account assignment to a cost center, and an additional, real account assignment object. In this case, the system always updates the cost center statistically. If you specify a real order and a cost center in the posting row, then the real posting is made for the internal order. Statistical postings are entered for the cost center and the profit center. However, If the order is only statistical, then it is posted to as such, and the cost center receives real postings. You can only assign one object type to each posting row. This means that you cannot post the same transaction row to more than one cost center or order, and so on.

Cost Center + Real Internal Order --> posting goes to the Real Internal Order
Cost Center + Statistical internal order --> posting goes to the Cost Center

Revenues can only be posted as real postings to a profitability segment, sales order, sales project, or to a real order that can have revenues. Revenue postings to the profit center are statistical, the same as for cost  postings. Revenues can also be recorded as statistical values on cost centers.
