Intercompany reconciliation process in ECC 6.0

Hi
Can anyone guide me on how to understand intercompany reconciliation process in ECC 6.0? I have tried but could not understand.
Thanks in Advance

Hello,
If you have been using F.2E you should probably review note 1180060 ( https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1180060 ) as an introduction.
It is necessary to set up some ICR specific details with the new solution. But if you use customizing generation as described in note 1172591 ( https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1172591 ) migrating to the new solution should not be too hard...
Best regards,
Ralph

Intercompany Reconciliation process 003 - Sender Ledger

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to set up configuration for IC reconciliation process. In the step define reconciliation process attributes, do I have to mention any sender ledger for ICR process 003? I read that the sender ledger field is not mandatory for ICR process 003. If we leave this field empty the reconciliation program will consider entries from BKPF and BSEG tables.
My current client has reconciliation system same as sender system. There is a productive company code running on the same client of the same system.
Currently there are two ledgers defined ZA and ZB.
ZA - named as FI ledger and
ZB - named as SPL reporting ledger.
Questions:
1./ In the ICR configuration, Do I have to mention one of the current ledgers (ZA or ZB) in the sender ledger field in the configuration? If so what will be the impact?
2./ Can I leave the sender ledger field blank in the configuration? If so, what will be the impact.
I am trying to read through the documentation in SAP notes (1172591 and 863630) but I am unclear of what is needed to be configured in this field.
Any feedback will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Ram

Hello Ram,
For processes 001 and 003 you should leave the sending ledger field empty unless you want to transfer information from document splitting to ICR from the general ledger.
If you specify a sending ledger the program will try to retrieve additional details from the sender ledger specified. But this only makes sense if you are using New GL with document splitting.

Hi
it must be always Automatically Reconciliation in any solutions all Intercompany transactions " This is Cross-System"
●      Start reconciliation run automatically (required)
●      Check status of reconciliation run (optional)
●      Perform manual reconciliation (required)
●      Make adjustment postings (optional)

Intercompany reconciliation in FI

Hi.
Is there anybody who got experienced to implement Intercompany reconciliation function in SEM or SEM-BCS similar in FI as follows?
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/1b/56b63e8697b300e10000000a114084/content.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/1b/56b63e8697b300e10000000a114084/content.htm]
From my understanding, Intercompany reconciliation(ICR) in FI make reconciliation job in accounting document level while basically SEM-BCS does it in Item balance level.
I just know if it is possible in BCS.

Hi Todd
It is always better to have the ICR done in ECC before the data is moved on to BCS so that u can always fix the data before it is moved on to BCS and many companies do like this only.
It may not be good a idea to reconcile after the currency translation in BCS, since it is virutally not possible to identify and fix the problem at that level.
Kindly read the following documentation on ICR:

SAP BPC - Intercompany reconciliation - IC accounts - Input from user?

Dear All,
When doing consolidation(of investments), we need to reconcile IC transactions prior to consolidation process. I believe, there are specific accounts which are specific to IC transactions. These IC related accounts must be identified and used in the business rules during reconciliation process.
My question is:
During requirements gathering, even if I(SAP BPC Consultant) know those IC specific accounts on seeing the chart of accounts, this info./data MUST come from the users as these accounts may vary from company to company. When it is a legal consolidation, it is safer that these inputs are coming from the user and not from the SAP BPC Consultant. This is my understanding.
Is my above understanding is correct? IC related accounts must be an input from users and not expected from SAP CONS. specialist?
Correct me if I am wrong.
Thank you!
Regards,
Peri

Hi Peri,
Different companies use different charts of accounts and the intercompany group of accounts have to be confirmed by customers finance.

Intercompany reconciliation -FBICS03 -Version field

Hi All,
We are not able view Version filed in T-Code FBICS03 in DEV System, Where as we are able to see it in the QUA sys.
What could be the reason.

ok, the SAP provides you with standard functionality for reconciliation. Depending on which release you are on, you could look at transaction FB2E, Else look at menu path SAP menu -> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable or Accounts Payable -> Periodic Processing -> Closing -> Check/Count -> Cross-System Intercompany Reconciliation. The latter option requires some configuration and master data setup but the steps are clearly documented through Oss notes, just search for ICR*.
Hope this helps.

Inter company reconciliation process configuration in one system

Hi All,
We are upgrading from R/3 4.0B to ECC6.0 & currently using the classical GL. We are in process of customization of Inter Company Reconciliation for GL Open item, GL Accounts & A/R and A/P open items.
In the process of defining reconciliation process & detail attributes (T.Code: FBIC010) we are facing an error with description as "sender ledger 0 is invalid". But here we have not assigned any values (zero) & also system is not permitting to do so (as the field is graded out).
The detaild error screen is as follows:
Ledger 0 is not a valid sender ledger
Message no. FB_ICRC114
Diagnosis
You have specified ledger 0 as sender ledger for process 001. For process 001 the sender ledger must use totals table FBICRC001T. Ledger 0 uses totals table GLT0.
System Response
Error message. Settings cannot be saved.
Procedure
Specify a ledger which uses totals table FBICRC001T.
Pls suggest us how to overcome the above error. Kindly share the detailed customization documents if any has the same.

Hi
I will appreciate if you help me in this problem

GL Reconciliation process in Infomratinca for Financial analytics

Hi Guys,
I am implementing OBIA Financial Anlytics for the first time, need your valuable input for below issue.
I am trying to understand the GL reconciliation process withing OBIA Fianancial Analytics. As per the document which Oracle has given, I understood that for this process to happen we need GL account mapping to Group_Account_Num (Using file_group_acct_codes_ora.csv, file_group_acct_names.csv, file_grpact_fstmt.csv files).
According to the configuration guide;
By mapping your GL accounts against the group account numbers and then associating the group account number to a Financial Statement Item code, you have indirectly associated the GL account numbers to Financial Statement Item codes as well. This association is important to perform GL reconciliation and to ensure the subledger data reconciles with GL journal entries.
Also it has given one mapping for Financial Statement Item Codes and Base Fact tables. Now my understanding says, all the detail entries of GL AP should get recorded into to W_AP_XACT_F table, and if it is a GL AR entry it should get recored into W_AP_XACT_F and likewise for COGS, REVENUE, TAX and OTHERS.
But currenly in our system, I can see all the entries (AP, AR, COGS, REVENUE, TAX and OTHERS entries) are there in all detail table (W_AP_XACT_F, W_AR_XACT_F, W_GL_COGS_F, W_GL_REVENUE_F, W_TAX_XACT_F, W_GL_OTHER_F table.
Can anybody knows if this is correct behaviour or I am doing some mistake in the configuration.
Thanks in Advance,
Kashi

you need to configure those three files to get the data in to BI and report them.
file_group_acct_codes_ora.csv : you need to pull all your natural GL accounts from EBS and feed them to this file. this file specifies each gl account and its behavior like whether it is a Payable entry or Receivable or Cash or PPE etc. so that you can view the data in payable, receivables etc dashboards with appropriate group totals.
the group codes you define here like AP, AR, CASH, etc must be defined in file_group_acct_names.csv, which is master file for Account groups.
file_group_acct_names.csv: This defines master set of group names you are using in your organization like AP, AR, CASH, PPE etc. these groups intern tagged to a financial statement codes like Revenue, TAX etc. so that you can find what is the total revenue or tax or AP etc for a specific period for a business unit.
file_grpact_fsmt.csv: This a master file containing Financial statement item codes like Revenue, Tax.
file_group_acct_codes_ora.csv >-- file_group_acct_names.csv >--file_grpact_fsmt.csv
(GL ACC NUM) (GROUP ACC NUM) (FSTMT ITEM CODE)

Questions on ICR reconciliation process 002 (behaviour 2)

Dear all,
I am implementing ICR reconciliation process 002   and I have some questions regarding process's behaviour and functionality. I have set u201CDefine Rules for Document Assignments" as following:
1     POPER     Posting period     = Equal     POPER     Posting period
10     RTCUR     Transaction currency     = Equal     RTCUR     Transaction currency
20     TSL     Transaction Currency     -1 Opposite Amount (Only for Value Fields)     TSL     Transaction Currency
3/ If I am reconciliating company A with partner B in FBICR2, when I assign manually items and reconcile all accounts for this Company A/Partner B I expected that status for Company B and Parther A would be updated but transaction do not seems to work as I expected. Is this the correct behaviour or am I doing something wrong?

Questions on ICR reconciliation process 002 (functionality)

Dear all,
I am implementing ICR reconciliation process 002   and I have some
questions regarding process's behaviour and functionality. I have set
u201CDefine Rules for Document Assignments" as following:
1   POPER       Posting period    = Equal     POPER       Posting
period
10 RTCUR       Transaction currency    = Equal     RTCUR
Transaction currency
20 TSL   Transaction Currency    -1 Opposite Amount (Only for Value
Fields)   TSL   Transaction Currency
4/I need to reconcile accounts (process 002) not only for GL accounts w/o
open items but also Open Items GL accounts and vendor and customer GL
accounts (reconciliation accounts).
I do not need to manage open items nor vendor customer items (which would
be supported with processes 001 and 003); I just need to reconcile these
accounts as if they were GL accounts. I have tested in my test client and
seems to work. Is it possible?
Cheers

Hello Rafael,
The advantage of using process 001 or 003 is that you get a clear overview of the unpaid receivables and payables taking key date information into account. This is why the recommended procedure for dealing with payables and receivables is to use process 001 or process 003. You basically have a different angle when analyzing open items...
Having said all this it is possible to include any type of account in process 002. All you need to do is to not be quite as restrictive in your ledger selections. Then other line items will be posted to your ledger and can be analyzed within process 002. If this is what you need then go ahead and do it. Just make sure that you are sure your customer does not want to analyze receivables and payables on a different level...
Hope this helps,
Ralph

Questions on ICR reconciliation process 002 (process behaviour)

Dear all,
I am implementing ICR reconciliation process 002   and I have some questions regarding process's behaviour and functionality. I have set u201CDefine Rules for Document Assignments" as following:
1     POPER     Posting period     = Equal     POPER     Posting period
10     RTCUR     Transaction currency     = Equal     RTCUR     Transaction currency
20     TSL     Transaction Currency     -1 Opposite Amount (Only for Value Fields)     TSL     Transaction Currency
2/ I do not fully understand process behaviour. Although all accounts included in a group are balanced to zero; group status appears "yellow" (Unassigned items) and I have to unassign them in the assigned data view (bottom of the user interface) and then assign them manually again in order to get them in "green" status (without differences).
I understood for process '002' reconciliation is in a account balance point of view and not try to clear item by item. Am I right?

Ralph thanks for your answer that was very helpful.
I reviewed table FBICRC002T and as you said, there were lines with RTYPE = 1 and TSL NE 0; but they were wrong, I mean not "real" since the amounts (totals amounts) were bigger than the sum of the individual line items documents involved in FBICRC002A.
Then I run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' and totals were recalculated and then I run FBICA2 and all lines in FBICRC002T with TSL NE 0 had RTYPE = 2 so gropus appear as "green" in FBICR2 now.
I think that I understand now how program derive group's status.
Then I did the following steps:
- I went to FBICR2 and unassign all items in "green" groups.
- FBICRC002A was updated with status 1 but FBICRC002T remains with status 2
- Then I logoff transaction FBICR2 and login transaction FBICR2 again. Since table FBICRC002T did not change (remains with status 2) groups appear "green" again although items were not assigned in FBICRC002A.
- Then I run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' again FBICRC002T was updated now with status 1
- After doing that, I log in transaction FBICR2 again and groups appear "yellow" as expected.
- Then I manually assign in FBICR2 all items so they changed to status "2" in FBICRC002A but FBICRC002T remains with status "1". Groups remains as "yellow" since FBICRC002T is not updated yet.
- Once again, If I run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' table FBICRC002T is updated with status "2" and groups are "green" in FBICR2.
If you are still keeping reading this thanks you. I think all of this sounds a bit tricky but my question is: how and when is table FBICRC002T updated? Is necessary to run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' after any manual change (assign or unassing) at FBICR2? Is this regular behaviour? Sound a bit strange by the way, I think I am doing something wrong or have misunderstood somethingu2026
Thanks a lot in advance for your help and patience.
