No automatic G/L account determination upon SSC items valuation classes

Hi Experts
Iu2019m trying to get the G/L expense account on the Purchase Order item for a Standard Service Catalog Item. Iu2019ve assigned a valuation class to valuation class field (ESLA-BKLAS) on the Catalog Header (General data sub-window) and also the same valuation class (RMSTLV-BKLAS) in all Standard Service Catalog Items texts (by choosing the Editor option).
Ex:
                    SSc item                                    Val class

Unfortunately, none seems to work (no G/L account is automatically determined by the system)
Can you help me out?
Thanks
Nuno

I have the same issue where I have maintained the Valuation class values in the Standard Service Catalogue,
Referenced those SSC items into an outline agreement where I have assigned specific prices... but am required to maintain a Material Group at the Line item level.
Created a PO that references the Outline agreement.
Created a service entry that references the Contract services catalogue items...
... and regardless of the valuation classes maintained either at the Catalogue level (ESLA-BKLAS) or at the editor level (RMSTLV-BKLAS) the GL that comes into the Service entry document is the one from the Contract line level.
Any insight as to where I may gain control on this would be greatly appreciated.

Pls tell me which transaction key used for transportation?
Thanks,

From the transaction GBB & the combination of General Modification key VBR & valuation class, the G/L Account is determined for posting to the freight accounts
Logistics Execution - Transport -Shipment costs-Settlement-Automatic G/L Account Determination
Also,
From the transaction WRX & Valuation class, the G/L Account is determined for GR/IR accounts.

8KEN - Account determination for charging of valuation difference

Hi Friends,
Could anyone please tell me briefly how and where the configuration done in transaction code 8KEN - (Account determination for charging of valuation difference) works? What I basically wanted to know once we maintain the configuration how we can test whether it is working properly or not.
Regards,
Sandip

Hi,
Refer the below thread
[Re: Accounting entries for Foreign currency revaluation..Accounting entries]
From Vendor perspective :
If the monthly valudation is there then the entries will get posted against "Unrealised Gain / Loss Account" with posting to "Balance Sheet Readjustment Account" also.
And if the final payment to be made to Vendor then the entry will get posted to the "Realised Gain / Loss account"

Different GL Account for WRX - based on Valuation Class (No Material Master

Hi Gurus,
My scenario is as given below.
1. We do not have any Material Master. We create short text PO's with account assignment category "P".
2. We are also using Material Group in our PO. We have one Material Group for Domestic Purchases (say M1) and another Material Group (say M2) for Import Purchases.
3. We have assigned valuation class say 3100 for Material Group M1 and valuation class 3101 for Material Group M2.
4. Our plant is say RBUP and our valuation grouping code is say 0001 which is assigned to the same plant.
Objective:
While doing MIGO we want to have different GR/IR Account for domestic purchases say 108 and different GR/IR account for import purchases say 109.
Issue:
1. In OBYC setting GR/IR account is picked from transaction key WRX.
2. Our entries in WRX are as given below for our Chart Of Accounts say DMN.
Valuation Modifier Valuation Class GL Account
0001 108
0001 3100 108
0001 3101 109
3. But even when i am creating the PO with Material Group M2, it is not picking the GR/IR account 109, based on the valuation class i.e. 3101 which is assigned to the Material Group M2.
Query:
1. How can I achieve my objective of selecting GR/IR Account 109 for Import PO's and GR/IR Account 108 for Domestic PO's.
Pl note we will not be maintain material master.
Will give full 10 points if anyone can help me reslove this issue.
Pl also do not waste any of your valuable time to address the account assignments for BSX or GBB-VBR. I am fully aware that in VBR this differentiation is possible.
Rgds,
Prasad.

I suggest you to create a Dummy Materials. Lets say,
material number: 1001
enter material description as Domestic
material number: 1002
enter material description as Imports
and in OBYC for GBB
make the following settings:
val grp      gen mod    val cla      gl a/c dr     gl a/c cr
0001     VBR     4000     74180040     74180040
0001     VBR     4001     78020091     78020091
so that when u create PO u can get default GL (consumption GL ) for the material (u can use the same for material group also) and u can maintain WRX acc determination as follows ..
val grp   val cla    gl a/c dr   gl a/c cr
0001      4000     123456     123456
0001      4001     456789     456789
Thus u need to create 2 different valuation class for these material group specific and in PO while entering the text u can add the text which is displayed along with material description
hope this helps

Account determination - exchange rate and valuation

Hello All,
we have a problem concerning our account determination for differences in exchange rate and valuation. When clearing open vendor items in foreign currency, a percentage of the difference goes to our exchange rate difference account (correct), but the other part of our difference goes to the account we have configured for valuation (incorrect).
Before, we had, in "Account Determination for OI Exch.rate differences" (transaction FBKP) , the following configuration for all our accounts in foreign currency:
Exchange rate difference realized:
Loss: 66800000
Gain: 76800000
Valuation
Val Loss: 66800100
Val Gain: 13600000
Bal sheet adj: 40099999
Now, we have the same accounts,except for "Bal sheet adj", for which we have 5 different accounts depending on the account to be valued. This change shouldn't have any effect, but since then, every time we clear an open item (KR and KZ), one part of the difference goes to an exchange rate difference account, while another part goes to valuation, when this last account should only be used when running F.05.
Any help?
thanks
Daniel

Asha,
Revaluation is a 2 step process - In the first step, the documents entered in FC are converted into LC and then in the second step all the LC is converted into GC using the GAAP/Quarterly Rate.
During the first step, the difference is posted to a P/L Account and during the second step, the difference is posted to a B/S Account.
Coming to the open item clearing getting posted to the same accont defined in the step 1 - I would ask how are you doing the open item clearing ?
If it's manual through F-44, then i would say the accounts you are mentioning during clearing are wrong.
If it's through Payment Run, You would have to go FBZP -> Bank Selection and then check the g/l accounts mentioned over there.
Hope it helps..
Thanks,
Nandita

Incorrect Account Determination on Foreign Currency Valuation

Dear SAP Expert,
Kindly your help about my issue:
My company code using parrarel curreny,
1. Company Code Currency (10) -- USD
2. Hard Currency (40) -- IDR
I already complete all customizing for Revaluation such as; OBA1 for gain loss realized and Valuation Gain loss and B/S adjustment.
My Question is, why system keeping give me an error incorrect account determination even i already maintained it.
and i check it closely to the error, and system say i must maintain translation gain and loss (LSTRA and LSTRV field in OBA1), i juts dont get the point why i need maintain that... because I only revaluation on Company code currency not in Hard Currency (2nd Local Currency)
the thing getting more tricky when i try it in quality system with the same setting and transaction the quality system not show the error message like in the production.
the exist transaction have USD, IDR, EUR, GBP currency.
Please your advise
Thanks and regards
Rian

Dear All, thanks for all your replies...
First of all, yes this is open item account. and i already maintain in OBA1 for open item account
I already maintained:
Realized Gain and Loss:
- Gain and Loss (already defined)
Evaluation
- Evaluation Gain and loss and Balance Sheet (already defined)
Translation
-N/A (not defined because we just only revaluation on company code currency not hard currency/group currency)
but i don't maintain translation gain and loss in OBA1 because we just only revaluation on company code currency...
the system show me error to maintain translation account gain and loss and balance sheet in PRD
but in the QA not show me anything and the system worked well, (with the same scenario and transaction in Production, of course i already checked the OBA1 between QA and Production)
The Question are:
1. Why I need maintain Translation Gain and loss even i just revaluation on company code currency?
2. I still wonder why i should maintain translation gain and loss in PRD but not need in QA even in the same transaction and setting
Acctually, if the error message tell to maintain Translation Gain and loss field... yes i will do it in PRD but i need the reason...
Thank and regards

Tks/Rgds
Ganapathysubramanian.V

Hi,
Yes. it has to be in unchecked mode.i regret the same.
SAP Help wording 'Purchase order with account assignment (KBS)
You cannot assign this transaction/event key to an account. It means that the account assignment is adopted from the purchase order and is used for the purpose of determining the posting keys for the goods receipt.

Account Determination based on Item category

Hello Friends,
My client needs the Free of Charge scenario. I configured the new item category and attached the R100 condition type in Pricing procedure. System is able to calculate the value for main material and the value is zero for Free goods. But the main problem is business wants to post the free goods cost in different account than of the main material.
e.g.
Material                             Item Category          Cost   Pricing Procedure        GL
M1                                            TAN                  1000         A                             GL1
M2 (free Good)                         TANN                500          A                             GL1
Please note that the pricing procedure will be same only. In the same order type business wants to post the cost in different GL.
Please let me know how to configure it.
Thanks & Regards
Rahul

Hello,
Insert a new Condition in Pricing Procedure which is copy of R100 & assign a new Accout key to the same.
Subsequently maintain new Gl A/c in GL Determination for this Account Key in T-Code VKOA.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Account determination with valuation grouping code

We currently have 25 plants (valuation areas) setup using one chart of accounts and a common valuation grouping code for account determination. We now have a need to change one of the plants to use different accounts than the other 24 for the GBB transaction. I can see that transaction OMWD allows me to enter a different valuation group code by plant; so I've entered a different code for the plant we want to change. I then go into OBYC, double-click on GBB and I can see all the accounts set up. From here, if I press the 'rules' button I can see the options to base account determination on. Currently, the 'valuation modification' checkbox is unchecked - I believe this has to be checked in order to use the valuation grouping code.
I'm a little unclear on how to setup the different accounts for the valuation grouping code I've assigned to my one plant. When I checked the 'valuation modification' checkbox and save, I get a message 'the current account determination will be deleted if the rules are changed'. I've done this in a sandbox environment and it certainly does delete all the accounts setup for GBB! But it does then give me the option to enter the valuation grouping code, which is what I need to enter different accounts.
Am I doing this correctly and in the right sequence? Is there a way to save the current values in GBB so they don't go away when I choose 'valuation modification'?

Hi Leslie,
Based on your problem statement, if all the 25 plants are associated to a valuation grouping code, ideally your GBB key should have had the valuation modifier checked in the rules.
If it were not checked, then your current account determination for GBB key will get deleted when you add or delete a rule. Reason being the characteristics for account determination have now changes. Example, if you account determination is based on Valuation class as well, then earlier GBB had Valuation Classs/ Account but with the new rule it will have Valuation Mod./Valuation Class/ Account. SAP can't automatically map your previous account determination to the new account determination.
Best way to move forward is to take a screenshot or save your account determination from Table T030. Make changes to the rule. Then redo the account determination by refrecing the account determination that you saved before.

Material To G/L accounts determination

HI Experts
Is it possible to configure automatic account determination depending on MATERIAL GROUP WITHOUT using valuation classes!
I have a request to assign Material Groups to G/L Accounts (for NON-stock POs and Stock POs)
Each Material Group requires a different specific G/L account, is this possible without using
different valuation classes:
Material Group 4751100 Advert Costs needs to be assigned to G/L account 4751100
Material Group 4751500 Marketing Costs need to be assigned to G/L account 4751500
Etc.
Each material group requires a different G/L account!
Please advice
Rams

Hi,
Basically, the account determination is based on valuation classes.
Our company also requires to assign one G/L account to one material type, so we maintain material type and valuation class in 1 to 1 basis. The assignment of valuation class cannot be skipped.

Valuation string in account determination

Hi ,
Please explain me automatic account determination considering the Valuation strings,
Please explain me how the different factors( like valuation class, material type etc) comes in sequence in automatic account determination.
Regards, Deepika
Edited by: Deepika Pradhan on Dec 27, 2007 8:52 PM

Hello
All the Goods Receipt, Goods Issue movements and Invoice Postings are the events relevant to Accounting. These transactions or events effects the accounting and there is a need to post the value to certain GL Account.
Account Determination is a process to automatically identify the GL Account and post it when a relevant Transaction or events takes place.
The following is level for valuation and account determination in MM
Chart of accounts
Company code
Valuation area
Plant
Valuation type
A Chart of Account provides a framework for the recording of values to ensure an orderly rendering of accounting data This is used as a key for account determination, to enable a differentiation for the purposes of G/L account assignment. You must assign a chart of accounts to each company code.You must configure automatic account determination separately for each chart of accounts
The Valuation Area is the organizational level at which material is valuated. Plant and company code are two possible valuation areas in the R/3 System. When stock is valuated at plant level, a material in different plants can be valuated at different prices. When stock is valuated at company code level, the valuation price of a material is the same in all of a company's plants
Valuation Grouping code
By activating or deactivating the Valuation Grouping Codes, you can turn on or off the dependency of the Account determination function on the Valuation Area. You must configure automatic account determination separately for each valuation grouping code within a chart of accounts
Valuation Class
The Valuation Class is a key for grouping materials that have the same Account Determination
The relationship between Valuation class and Material Types is established by the Account Category reference. The Account Category reference is a compilation of valuation classes
A material type is assigned to only one account category reference
Account Category Reference
Account Category References link the valuation Classes with the material Types
The combination Material Type-Account Category Reference-Valuation Class determines the G/L accounts updated for a valuation relevant transaction
Business Transactions
In the R/3 System, posting transactions are defined for each transaction in Materials Management that is relevant for Accounting. General posting records are assigned to each transaction or event in a value string
Example of a transaction/ event is a goods mvt or an invoice receipt
Example of transaction/ event keys are BSX for stock posting & PRD for a price difference posting
Example of value strings are WE01 attached to transaction GR for std. PO & WA01 assigned to various GI & other goods receipts
Instead of definite G/L account numbers, this value string contains transaction keys for the relevant posting transaction. The first transaction key for a posting rule usually stands for the debit posting
The posting transactions for the transactions in Inventory Management and Invoice Verification that are relevant for accounting are fixed. Posting records are assigned to each relevant movement type in Inventory Management and to each transaction in Invoice Verification
The assignments of value strings to goods movements and the breakdown of the same into transaction keys can be seen in Customizing for Inventory Management and Physical Inventory, but they can not be changed
In Customizing for Valuation and Account Assignment, G/L accounts for the various posting transactions are mentioned

Why do we need account determination?

Hello,
why do we need account determinations and how can i create them for the COA?
Thanks,
-S

Hi
To create accruals and post payables, the system must first of all determine the correct G/L accounts for posting in FI.
Before the system can determine the G/L accounts, certain settings must be made in Customizing. In the IMG, select: Logistics Execution -> Transportation-> Shipment costs -> Settlement -> Automatic G/L account determination. The settings required are described in detail here.
G/L account determination is carried out automatically. The following parameters are used for determination:
Chart of accounts
Valuation grouping code
Transaction key
Account grouping
Valuation class
G/L account determination can be carried out at shipment cost item level or you can have the system carry out posting at delivery or delivery item level for a more detailed process.

Account determination without wizard

Materials management>valuation and account assignment>account determination>account determination without wizard>group together valuation area.
i am not able to find 2 plants (valuation area is activated at plant level) with assignments
can any one pls let me know wht the reason and how can i do that
there is no option for entring a new item.

have you executed before: Materials management>valuation and account assignment>account determination>account determination without wizard>Define Valuation Control
This is the customizing that allows you to group.
The plants will automatically show up there, just without a grouping in the field on the right.
But the precondition for this is that your valuation level is set to plant level in Enterprise Structure >
Definition > Definition > Define valuation level
