Link between Business area and Material master

Hi guys
Is there a link between Busines area and material master, i am getting an error when I am trying to Move part of material stock from unrestricted stock to Project stock by 411/Q.
Error
Business area xx changed to yy
Ideas?
sam

Hi
Yes Business area has a link with MMR
Business area determination is through by three rules
1. Plant and item division
2. Sales area( sales orgdistribution channeldivision )
3. Sales org, distribution channel and item division
Here item division means the division in MMR that is basic data 1 tab and sales org 1 tab
This division field forms the main link between Business area and MMR

Valuation Area and Material master

Dear All,
Can anyone explain the relation between Valuation Area and Material Master.
According to my knowledge,Plant has relation with Material master.
SAP recommends Plant to be Valuation Area.
Regards

Hi Venkat,
Valuation Area is the level at which u need ur Material to be valuated .
V have 2 options as :
1> Company Code
2> Plant
SAP recomends aat Plant level.
If u Company code is used then the Material is valuated at same price across whole company.
The decission of Valuation Area has to be done at configuration level.
And once done , it should not be changed ..............as SAP states
Thanks & Regards
Hope this helps

Difference between Business Partner and Customer Master repository

What is the difference between Business Partner and Customer Master repository ?
Is the Business Partner repository to be used in case CRM is also in landscape ? or Customer master repository is good enough ?
Sandesh

Hi,
If the landscape has both CRM and SAP ECC a business partner repository model should be good.
If it has ECC alone.a Customer Repository is needed.
But when there are many legacy systems which also contains master data fields, the standard business repository provided by SAP wont provide a good solution as it wont cover the legacy master fields..In this case its better to go for a customized repository and you can use the standard repository as a reference.
Thanks

Difference between business area and sales area

Hi
I am swetha i have one doubt
1) what is the buisiness area and what purpose we use the business area
2) what is sales area and what purpose we use the sales area
3)what is the main Difference between business area and sales area.
Regards
Swetha

Hii..
Business Areas in SAP are used to differentiate transactions originating from different points/lines/locations in business. Let me give some examples to elucidiate:-
A company (say, ABC) is a huge company and has a variety of businesses under it. Let us say that it typically operates in 3 different domains like machinery manufacturing, trading and assembling of machine parts.
There are 2 options here now -
1. Either create different company codes for the 3 business operations (which would be the easiest and require no creativity)
or
2.) Create each of these business lines into business areas (the better option).
The advantages of using the second option is:
1. You can use these business areas if other company codes require the same areas
2. The configuration is simpler as in case of company code, you would require to go through the entire configuration of creating Chart of Accounts, Fiscal Year variants, posting periods variants and so on. In the business area option, you just need to attach it to the company code and the rest of the details in Business area is attached by default from the company code you are using it in.
3. Using the options in controlling (EC-PCA, Enterprise Controlling, Profit Centre Accounting), you can even draw up Balance Sheets and PL statements for your business areas and hence this is used for management accounting in some companies (like HP, Dell, etc) when it wants to know the operating profits for different business areas/lines.
The above was an example when the company wanted to separate entries according to the lines it operates in... the other case could be when it wants to find out profitability during its operations in cities and differentiates these cities into Business
Areas...
Business Areas are not much relevant in FI but are much more relevant in CO.
Hope this clears.

Link between Sales order and Credit master sheet

Hi,
Plz explain the link between sales order and credit master sheet.
Thanks and regards
CSR

Hi,
Credit master is related to Customer.
Credit limit will be assigned to a customer by using the T.Code FD32.
Credit control area will be assigned to a customer.
You can the credit control area for a customer in the table "KNVV".
Goto the T.Code "FD32".Enter your customer number and credit control area.Select the status tab.
Here you can maintain the credit limit.If you leave blank means the limit is 0.00.
Next thing is goto the T.Code "OVAK".
Select your sales order.Maintain the "Credit limit check" for your order type.
Goto the T.Code "OVA8".Select your valid combination.Here,you can activate either the static or dynamic credit limit checks.
If you create the sales order by using the customer,initially the system will check for the credit limit.If it is 0.00 and credit check functionality is activatd in the above specified T.Codes,then creditcheck will happen and order will be blocked for releasing of credit by using the T.Code "VKM3".Authorised persons have to release this credit block.Suppose,you have maintained this credit limit as "1000Rs/-" and you are creating the order of value "550Rs/-",then your order will not be blocked even though the credit check functionality is activated for your order type.
In this way,sales order is in turn related to credit master.

Krishna.

Difference between Business area and profit center accounting

Hi Frnds,
Can any body explain about difference between business area and profit center accounting .

Hi
Business area will have many profit centers. For example Vehicle is a business area in a company. Vehicle can be cars and Bikes etc. Here Vehicle is business area and Cars and Bike are profit centers. In broad Vehicle is a profit center. But as it has sub areas those are profit centers. So profit centers cannot be replaced with business area and vice versa. We can replace business area by Profit centre, only condition is that it should be in same controlling area. The business area is more like a business unit of a company. You can have multiple profit centers within a business area.
Main distinguish factor is that distribution and assessment in possible in profit center but not in business area.
One more distinction is that Business area need not be attached to any organisation structure. But profit centres can be created only under the controlling area. Business area can be across controlling area.
Business area concept is used for making stragic decisions by the management whereas the primary purpose of profit centre accounting is responsibility accounting.

Difference between business area and profit center

hi all
could you please tell me about difference between business area and
profitcenter.
thanks,
regards,
chennuri.

HI
Read below
Profit Center - The profit center view shows the various
internal areas of responsibilities. Objects such as cost
centers, materials, etc can be used for profit center
analysis. Profit center can be used to determine the
revenues, costs, and profitability for specfic areas of
responsibility.
Business Area - Business area forms an important part of
external reporting. Analysis of various segments, product
divisions, regions etc is possible using business areas.
Business Area: This is optional
This can be used cross compane codes
This is for Internal Purpose
It is not Legal Entity like Co Code
The transation entered in Business are, Debit total will
not tally with credit total
Since it is used for segment wise or area wise or line wise
this is used for internal report purpose only .
Balance Shhet and P & L stataments can be drawn on segment
wise
Profit Centre: Generally in terms of SAP or Finance the
meaning of Profit centre is to know the profitabilty.
In same manner , The managers wants to know the ROI from
their investments, obviously we nned to use the tool.
This ROI may be geographically or area wise or division
wise. P.C provided us profitablity of the particular area
for internal purpose ( Only for Internal )
Business Area is an optional entry.Whenever company wants
financial statements businessarea wise we can maintain
BAs.And also we can maintain BA as Segment Wise,Product
Wise,Geographical Location wise.
Profit center is used to know the profits of companies.PC
is also used for to know the profits as aProduct
wise,Segment wise,geographical location wise.If anything
wrong inthis answer plz correct me..
Hope this helps
Good Luck

Difference between business area and costcenter

Hi All,
Could u pls let me know the differences between Business Area and Cost Center.
Awaiting ur valuable responses.
Thanks & Regards
Chennuri

Hi,
i am giving a realtime information on business areas and cost centers.
For our company we have 25 branches. in sap we treat all of our branches as a seperate business area. the reason why we maintain business area. at the month end or year end financial statemensts are generated on company code basis and business area base. so we consider branches as a business area.
Cost center is like a cost object.
Hope this is clear,

Sankar

Link Between Business Object and Transaction

<b>How is Business Object linked to transactions?</b>
For example, how is business object BUS2032 (Sales order) linked to transaction VA01 (Create sales order)?

Hi Ben,
I'm not sure that you link a business object and a transaction code explicitly. Normally in the business objects methods you have coded what transaction code should be called. Therefore if you use the methods of the business objects it then knows what transaction to call.
Conversely on the workflow side you will find that down in the depths of the coding for VA01 (as an example) it calls workflow function modules and raises events. When doing so it provides the business object id and key to the business object (i.e. the sales order number). Indirectly I guess the change documents that are raised for most things in SAP like sales documents are uniquely identified and therefore can also be translated to the business object key (e.g. sales documents will have their own change document type).
A brief example in my 4.6c system can be found in include LIEDPF4C in the form finsta_kontoauszug_buchen with a call to function SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT. You see the the parameter "object_type" has a variable passed to it "objtype_finsta". If you drill back on objtype_finsta you see that is hardcoded to the value BUS4499.
I guess you could say the developer of the business object knows what transaction codes the business object should use and the developer of the code in the transaction code knows what business objects he should be raising events for if necessary.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Michael

Relation between business area and materials

I have to extract the materials given the business area , can i use these the tables t134g and mbew for that . Both have common field valuation area , t134g has business area and mbew has material number in it. I appreciate your responses.

Hi Deepthi,
You can directly use MBEW table to retrive Materials for a particelar valuation type. No need to use MARA.
Like this..
Select MATNR from MBEW where BWKEY = 'Put valuation area you want'.
Reward points if helpful.

Link between business palce and g.l a/cs

Dear All,
what is the link between business places ,g.l accounts and plants.
For example. I have three plants and same tax codes used for all plants. I have defined in FS00 different G/L number for every plant as per below,
For plant #1 - ESA - 101, ESE - 102, VSE -103
For Plant #2 - ESA- 201, ESE-202, VSE-203
For Plant #3 - ESA- 301, ESE-302, VSE-303
And assume gl is assigned in OB40 (w/o tax code combination) as,
ESA-101 , ESE - 202 , VSE -303 .
While doing miro for what ever plant, it's going and set on appropriate plant g/l nbrs based on trns. key. pls tell me how a/c determination process flows automaticaly to the exact plant wise.
regards,
balu.k

This is dependend of your settings:
Have a look in: OBYC
You can make a split by:
- Valuation modif
- general modificator
- Valuation cl
When there is a 1:1 link with your plant you can make this split
Wy you want to have plants? When you assign a profit center to you materials you can get the same information in PCA and then there is no need to set up all these split accounts
A plant is nothing in FI/CO
