company code must be assigned a chart of accounts. Once a chart of
accounts is assigned to a company code, it becomes the operative chart of
accounts for that company code and it is used to capture information for
both Financial Accounting (FI) and Cost Accounting (CO).
Other possible charts of accounts may be required to capture additional
information to support international business accounting purposes
including:
