Hi
Whether u can repatriate the entire revenue from one country to another depends upon the laws of the country in which it is going to be operated which may vary from country to country. Some countries allows u to repatriate the earnings by way of dividend subject to a ceiling. Take the case of Coco Cola where I worked for some time. It is incorporated as pvt company in India. Coco Cola US will sell concentrate of some products and Coco Cola India will settle the price. Coco Cola India never repatriated the earnings,  it is a different story whether they made profit or not. Assuming that u have that the HO will account for the revenue, the HO will always raise an invoice for the services or material supplied and local company can settle the same. THis will have many advantages rather than having a branch office.

  • Set Up Payment Methods per Company Code for Payment

    Hi All,
    Can any expert please suggest whether do we need to enter only paying company codes while defining the payment methods per company code or enter all company codes.
    Ex: We have 10 company codes for which there are 3 paying company codes. After defining the payment methods in the country, while defining payment methods per company code do we need to  define for only 3 paying company codes or for all 10 company codes. Because when you are paying through one company code on behalf of three company codes, how does it make sense having the payment method in company codes which are not paying. I hope my query is sensible.
    Thanks&Regards

    Generally Payment method is defined for a customer at Company code level and Sales area level. Through Partner function we can control who has to make payment. In your case , if you need to define different customer as payer you can do so in KNVP table. while making sales order payment terms will pick from Payer of the Sold to patry customer.
    Not sure why do you wants to link to Company code

  • Set up Company Codes for Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable

    HI,
    I need clarification on "Set up Company Codes for Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable"
    When a company code "ABCD" isn't set up for contract accounts receivable and payable (Menu path:
    SAP Insurance -> Collections/Disbursements -> Organizational Units -> Set up Company Codes for Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable), are postings on this company code "ABCD" within FS-CD not allowed and blocked ?
    Is it mandetory to specify company codes to post in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable in SAP FS-CD.

    Yes .  It is mandatory to extend company code chart of accounts to CA/CR and FSCD.

  • Pay Operating Units from different Legal Entities?

    Pay Operating Units from different Legal Entities?
    Hi there,
    This is the current scenario:
    Legal Entity A has Operating Unit A
    Legal Entity B has Operating Unit B.
    In R12 Payables, can payments be setup so that in the payments manager of Operating Unit A (LE A), payments can be made for Operating Unit B (LE B)?
    i.e. Can an operating unit from one legal entity make payments from an operating unit from another legal entity?
    The bank account is setup in LE A, but when we create a payment process request with invoices from different OUs of different LEs, then only invoices from the LE in which the bank is setup are selected for payment.

    1.OU's are not mapped to LE directly (at least for Payables). The OU LE relationship is derived via the ledgers. So if Ledger A is attached to OU A and Ledger A is attached to LE1 and LE2. I guess what I am saying should be possible.
    2.If I understand correctly the new functionality that you are refering to is for the Payment Process Request (PPR, payment batches in 11i). This feature is more wrt MOAC changes that were done and not Cross OU payments.
    What it allows you is to select invoices from different LE,different OU's, different Currencies and different pay groups. It does not allow you to have Invoice in OU1 and payment for that invoice in OU2.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You should define the payment method in all the 10 company codes regarding they are the paying or non paying company code.
    If you are not defining them they you will not have the option to select the payment for that particular company code.

  • Maintain company codes for MM

    The day we assign the plants to the company code, we have to do the settings i.e.,,
      in Maintain company codes for MM(T-code : OMSY).
    1.What's the siginificane(importance) of this?
    2.I have assigned the plants to the company code today,
       but forgot to do the settings on the same day i.e.,. maintain company codes for MM?
       Now what should i do?

    Hello Pavan,
    When you create a material master record, the control record must exist for the company code so without maintaining period in OMSY you will not be able to create the material master record.
    To Allow backposting or Disallow backposting you need to maintain indicators in this transaction.
    You can use, MMPV/MMPI if you missed out this setting.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is it possible to assign different company code employees(country grouping also different) under same Organizational Unit?

    Hi SAP Experts,
    In OM side, Org Unit is linked to company code "GB**" cost center, when we tried to assign new cost center(company code is GB**), system throws error "Company Code changes involves Invalid change of country". I know when we try to assign cost center, belongs to another country company code, this error comes. I checked and found that employees under OU belong to 2 different countries.Few of the employees belong to GB** company code while other employees belong to FI** company code.
    Is it possible to assign different company code employees(different country code) to the same OU? if yes, how can we do that?
    Please reply soon
    BR,
    RG

    Hi RG
    "Is it possible to assign different company code employees(different country code) to the same OU? if yes, how can we do that?"
    Yes it is possible to assign by creating sub org unit and then assigning cost center based on the company code (and country code)
    When the child org unit is created under the Parent org unit - maintain the Account assignment details - cost center details based on the company code of other countries i.e Finland and any positions created it will be under Finland and that way you can choose different countries.
    Example :
    Root Org unit : XYZ / OU
    Sub Org units : GB  / Finland / Italy / NL   etc with respective cost centers
    Sub Org units or positions: GB_HR / GB_Sales etc which will default the cost center from the GB org unit.
    In our current clients we have more than 5 + countries under the Root Org unit and then sub org units as each country which are further divided and have respective cost centers assigned.
    best wishes
