Can I create a single PO for two company codes

Hi
Can I create a single PO for two company codes. Though I know that Company code is assigned at header level but still I know there is a setting in controlling which when activated two company codes under same controlling area can procure the goods under the same PO.But i forget from where to activate that message or control in config.
Thanks

Hi Lekhram,
I'm just beginner so maybe I got the wrong end of the stick.
If you order something that something must belong to a definite company > plant. How could possess two company the same thing at the same time (totally)?
(companies are at the same organisational level - none of them is subject to the other).
Maybe I'm mistaken.
So I <b>guess</b> you can use only one company code for one PO.

Can we create a single bdc for raw materials , and for some other transacti

hi
can we create a single bdc for raw materials , and for some other transaction? how?

Hi Jyothsna
For one transaction you will have to build your bdc table according to the recording for that transaction and then call that transaction using the bdc table. For another transaction , you will again have to build the bdc table with the details of that transaction.
You cannot call all at one shot.

WBS for two company codes

Dear Experts,
This requirement is for an IT service project.
The process is - I have two company codes Comp code 1 & Comp code 2, In which Project is created in company code 1. Employees are assigned to project to onsite & offshore from company code 2. This means the employees are created in the company code 2. But working for the project in Comp.code 1. Comp code 2 get revenue thru intercompany billing based on number of hours/days the employee worked in the project created by the com. code 1. The employee books the timesheet in comp code 1 against the project id.
To acheive this
1) i need to maintain same project for two company codes?
2) Or same project, one wbs for one company code & other wbs for another company code?
Will the above two possible to work in SAP? or
anyother we i can workaround this
Please advise
Regards,
Deepu Pillai

Hi,
This is possible through Resouce Related billing in PS.
For e.g. Consider business scenario, where we have created T-10006 as a customer project.
Now this project is mapped using a work breakdown structure that contains activities.
The activities define the flow of the project and form a quantity structure for determining costs and payment data automatically.
The project cost plan is used to create quotations.
When the sales order is received, it is assigned to the project. This means that it can be used to plan revenue and then post this revenue.
Actual costs are entered when activities are confirmed, components are purchased and when invoices are assigned. Actual revenue is posted to the project by means of milestone billing.
Two companies are responsible for executing project T-10006.
Company 'A' is mapped using company code 1000 and performs all services except for those planned in WBS element T-10006.1.2.
Comapny 'B' is mapped using company code 2000 and performs some of the engineering services. (WBS element T-10006.1.2).
Here Comapny 'B' bills its services to Company 'A' on a resource-related basis.
A results analysis is carried out for the billing elements T-10006 und T-10006.1.2 in the project.
The results analysis values are settled to the profitability segment.

Different Bank charges GL account for two company codes with same COA

Hi,
While configuring OBXK ( Automatic GL account for bank charges) , I see there is provision to enter only one GL account per chart of accounts.
We have two company codes using same chart of accounts but different bank charges GL account. Please tell me how to configure this.
Thanks,
suresh

Hi,
Thanks Krishnan and Chandra.
I agree with you it could be the same GL account for bank charges, but the business requirement is such that in one of the two company codes, bank charges are required to be tracked separately to be subsequently transferred to the other company code. This means two separate GL accounts are required for two company codes which needs to be configured in OBXK.
Hope this clarifies my query further.
thanks,
suresh

One vendor for two company codes

Please elaborate on this as am new to this..
Thanks,
Rashmi Ravi

Dear all,
SAP allows You to create a customer / vendor master data that contains information that is valid for all the Company code --> into General data.
Then there is a part, Company Code data, where You can define specific details for each Company Code.
The transaction is the same FD01 or FK01.
I hope this helps You.

Exchange Rate Maintenance for two company codes..

Friends,
My client is having two company codes
X = India
Y = USD
US Company code is live for the last few years and India Company code is created recently and the same is live now.
Now when the US company code creates Purchase Orders / Scheduling agreements, the following error is encountered.
"Enter rate INR/EUR rate type M for 31.07.2008 in the system settings.:"
Now my question to the forum is that
1. If we maintain the exchange rates in OB08 will there any other effect ?
2. Is this error because One more company code is added to the same client which is operating in INR ?
3. When US Company code is not all transacting with India Company Code why is this error encountered.
Appreciate if some one can explain the pros and cons of this please. I am basically an MM consultant and I would also like to know the FI impact in this scenario, hence posted this question in FI forum.
Regards

Hi,
At the time of initial installation SAP would make EUR as base currency, so any new company code you create needs to have an exchange rate defined to the base currency EUR.
In your case you can define exchange rate to EUR and process PO, as per my knowledge there will not be any impact of this.
Thanks,
Ramesh.

Operating concern for two company code with different currency

Hi,
We are merging two company code into one SAP server.
We decide to use on chart of account, and to use one operating concern.
For company code A: the currency is CNY, for company code B: the currency is TWD. The operating concern currency is:CNY.
So i need to in KEA0(maintain operating concern) active company code currency, right?
So every posting in company code B will be posted in TWD and CNY to COPA same item, right?
In KE30 report, where to add characters: Currency type that i can show company code B report in TWD?
Thanks.

Dear David,
Yes. If you have different compancy codes within one controlling area, you have to maintain currency type with 10-Company code currecny and while maintaining the operating concern also you have to choose the company code currency only. Then only you will get the reports with respect of your company code currecny level. This will be basing on your company code-sales organisation, plants and other charcters assignment basis in your configuration.
All the best,

Can we assign 1 credit control for multiple company codes

hi,
sap gurus,
good afternoon to all
can we assign 1 credit control area for multiple company codes.
if yes can any body explain the pro's and cons of the assignment.
if no can any body explain the why?
its urgent plz.......
regards,
balaji.t
09990019711

Yes Balaji,
We can assign.
Here the risk categiry and terms of one credit control area will be applicable to all company code.
Credit Control Area
Definition
An organizational unit that represents the area where customer credit is awarded and monitored.
This organizational unit can either be a single or several company codes, if credit control is
performed across several company codes. One credit control area contains credit control
information for each customer.
Use
Credit and risk management takes place in the credit control area. According to your corporate
requirements, you can implement credit management that is centralized, decentralized, or
somewhere in between.
For example, if your credit management is centralized, you can define one credit control
area for all of your company codes.
If, on the other hand, your credit policy requires decentralized credit management, you
can define credit control areas for each company code or each group of company codes.
Credit limits and credit exposure are managed at both credit control area and customer level.
You set up credit control areas and other data related to credit management in Customizing for
Financial Accounting. For more information, see the Implementation Guide under Enterprise
Structure Definition or Assignment Financial Accounting and then Maintain credit control
area. You assign customers to specific credit control areas and specify the appropriate credit
limits in the customer master record.
Thanks,
Raja

One payments for two company codes

i would like to inform you how to post incoming payment when i have received amounts for differents company codes
regards

Guess you are trying to use F-28 (or something similar) to post the incoming payment. That will not allow what you want to do - split the incoming payment across two company codes.
Try the generic FI txn - F-02 (or something similar), and simply choose a different company code for the credit line items.
Dr Incoming Cash                            100
.   Cr Customer 1 in Co Code A          80
.   Cr Customer 2 in Co Code B          20
The obvious complication here is that you won't be able to pick open invoices for the customers. You might have to knock off the open invoice items against these credit line items in a separate txn (F-32).
Try it out and see if this suffices.

How can I setup different number range for each company code?

Dear GURU,
Is it possible to setup different number range for material document by company code? If yes, what should i do.
Thank you in advance.
Thammarit

Hi,
you maintain the number assignment for the following documents:
material documents
physical inventory documents
The number assignment for these documents is not to be confused with the number assignment for accounting documents . The number assignment for accounting documents depends on the document type which is allocated to the transaction.
The number assignment for material documents and physical inventory documents depends on the transaction/event type which is also allocated to each transaction in Inventory Management. The transaction/event types are divided into groups of number ranges. A number range interval has to be defined for each group.
You cannot change the transaction/event types. However, you can change the number range intervals or you can allocate transaction/event types to new groups.
Caution: Change in the Fiscal Year
If, at the time of a fiscal year change, you reset the number range in the new fiscal year, separate number range intervals for the previous year and for the current year must be maintained for one month to allow postings to the prior period.
Example:
Interval for 1995: 4900000000 to 4999999999 status: 4900451234
Interval for 1996: 4900000000 to 4999999999 status: 4900000000
If only one number range interval exists for both years and you make any postings to the previous period, the system will assign numbers that already exist in the previous year. This would lead to an update termination.
In the standard system, the transaction/event types and number range intervals are preset for Inventory Management as follows:
Physical inventory documents
Number range interval from 0100000000 to 0199999999
This group contains the following transaction/event types:
- IB Physical inventory documents
- ID Physical inventory documents for counts and differences
without reference
- IN Physical inventory documents for recounts
- IZ Physical inventory documents for count without reference
- WV Physical inventory documents for difference postings in the WM System
Material documents for goods movements and inventory differences
Number range interval from 4900000000 to 4999999999
This group contains the following transaction/event types:
- WA Goods issues, transfer postings, other goods receipts
- WH Goods movements for handling units (HU)
- WI Material documents for inventory adjustment postings
- WL Goods issues for delivery documents (SD)
- WQ Goods movements for usage decisions (QM)
- WR Goods movements for completion confirmations (PP)
- WS Goods movements for run schedule headers (PP)
- WZ Documents for batch status changes
Material documents for goods receipts
Number range interval from 5000000000 to 5999999999
This group contains the following transaction/event types:
- WE Goods receipts for purchase orders
- WF Goods receipts for production orders
- WO Subsequent adjustment of subcontract orders
- WW Subsequent adjustment of active ingredient materials
Inventory sampling numbers
Number range interval from 0200000000 to 0299999999
This group contains the transaction/event type SI.
SAP recommends that you accept the settings defined in the standard system. In this case, no action is required on your part.
Note
For performance reasons, 10 document numbers are buffered on the application server. In this way, gaps in number assignment can occur.
Actions
Check whether you can use the predefined groups and number intervals.
If you want to change any groups, proceed as follows:
a) Choose Group -> Maintain.
b) Select the transaction/event type that you want to re-allocate.
c) Place the cursor on the new group and choose Edit -> Assign element group).
d) Save your settings.
If you want to define new groups, proceed as follows:
a) Select Group -> Maintain.
b) Then select Group -> Insert.
c) Enter a text for the number range group.
d) Maintain the number interval for this number range group.
e) Allocate the transaction/event types to the number range groups (see step 2).
If you want to maintain new number range intervals for an existing group, proceed as follows:
a) Choose Group -> Maintain.
b) Select a group and choose Interval -> Maintain.
c) Choose Edit -> Insert year.
d) Maintain the number interval for the new fiscal year.
If you do not want to use the year-related number assignment method, enter 9999 in the field Year.
Note on transport
You transport number range objects as follows:
In the initial screen, choose Interval -> Transport.
Note that all intervals for the selected number range object are deleted in the target system first. After the import, only the intervals you export are present. The number statuses are imported with their values at the time of export.
Dependent tables are not transported or converted.
Thanks and regards

Creation of referenc BP in SD for different company code from IS-U system

Dear Friends,
I have two company codes called 2000 and 3000 in my IS-U system. I would like to create SD ref customer with reference to BP created in the IS-U system.
I created SD reference customer with 2000 company code along with sales data's and assigned it to MKK role in IS-U, but for the second company code 3000, I can't assign the SD reference customer in IS-U MKK role, because the MKK role has been assigned it to the SD ref customer of company code 2000.
Now the problem is, I need to create SD reference customer for two company codes (2000 and 3000) with two different sales org. details through IS-U.

Try creating your SD reference customer in both the company codes (2000 & 3000) with their respective Sales Org data in XD01. Specify this reference customer while defining the parameters for automatic creation of SD customers for BP in IS-U.
Regards,
Rajini.

If the lockbox file being processed by RFEBLB00 has more than one invoices for a single check (i.e. multiple type '4' records for a type '6' record), the payment doc created will be for both these invoices.
Now when you clear the payment doc using FBRA or F.80, both these invoices will be cleared.
