    Order values can already have been updated on the profit center you are
    assigning to. For the new assignment, only the new order values on the
    profit center you are now assigning to are posted.
    If an order is assigned to a profit center and the "Integrated Planning"
    indicator is set, plan costs can be updated in the future on the old
    profit center.
