You can set up responsibility centers to help administer your business.
A responsibility center can be a cost center, a profit center, or an investment center. Examples of responsibility centers are a sales office, a purchasing department for several locations, and a plant planning office.
A responsibility center can, for example, administer sales and purchases for one or more warehouses or distribution centers where goods are handled and stored prior to use.
