Overview of Controlling (CO)
Definition
Controlling (CO) represents the County’s flow of cost and
revenue. It is also a management instrument for organizational
decisions.
Controlling facilitates coordination, monitoring and optimization
of all processes in an organization.
Controlling (CO) and Financial Accounting (FI) are independent
components in the SAP R/3 system. However, the two
components are tightly integrated and the data flow between
the two components takes place on a regular basis.
