Cost center relationship with department

[seema]

I have one question to ask about cost center relationship.Let say one department use only one cost-center.

Is it I have to key-in the relationship between department and cost-center only or I have to key -in all the position in that department with the cost-center.

If I don't keyin the relationship between position and cost center,

how about the report.
It will automatically appear or not ...

assign the Org Unit to a Cost Center using A011 Relationship through IT1001.

Secondly, the principle of Inheritance works here.....i.e.
IF you have assigned a O-K relationship at the Org Unit Level,

all the reporting Org Units & Positions will inherit the Same Parent Cost Center........except in cases where the O-K / S-K Relationship is changed for any other org Units...or Positions... in such cases, the reporting org units or positions will inherit that.....

Cost center assignments are inherited along the organizational structure.

Assigment of Cost Center to Org unit is the best practice as the position will get assigned to cost center ....
