Third Party Real Time Integration

Hi  all,
I am new to the SAP world.  My company just purchased FI/CO and we are in the process of implementing.  We have several feeder systems that need to be integrated.  Our partner is telling us that we have to send flat files on a timed schedule, but we really need the feeder systems to update the SAP system in real time.
My question is, is this possible with SAP?  I know that BAPI's are available but to what capacity?
I have a fair amount of integration experience w/ PeopleSoft (14yrs) and MS Dynamics AX (2yrs) both of which I have done this type of integration to.
Any information and direction would be great.
Thanks in advance,
Scott

So to clarify, it is possible for a third party application to make a connection to SAP and provide data to the BAPI?
Here is an example of what I am trying to do:
Our third party software will be the starting point for customers.  When a new customer is created we need to create that customer in SAP as well (for use with AR).  Currently we open a connection to the existing financial application, verify that the customer does not exist and insert the data into the table.
We all agree that we do not want to write directly to the SAP table(s).
What we would like to do is when the user saves the record in the third party app, open a connection to SAP, pass the data to the BAPI, wait for a return code then complete the transaction.
Please advise if this is possible and if so, a link to an example would be great.
Thanks,
Scott

  • Cross co. code controlling area - CO Real time integration with FI

    Hi all of you,
    We are in to New GL, and implementing one controlling area for all the company codes (cross company code cost accounting) with group currency  "30". And my client requires the CO - FI Real time integration to take the segment reporting / profit center (new) FI reporting.
    My basic doubt is, when we are implementing one CO area, we taking all the company codes as cost center groupings and creating the overhead cost centers. When doing Repost CO line items in CO, how system arrives the company code since we are not referring the FI document or Company code, how system will create the FI document in the company code.
    Do we have any separate transaction to do the repost CO line items to hit the CO - FI real time integration?
    Please give me your valuable suggestions to use the CO-FI real time integration with cross controlling area assigned to multiple company codes.
    Thanks & Regards
    Ramki

    Thanks for your valuable reply Mr. Christian.
    So you mean to say that, when we are maintaining the cost center groupings (per company code), same will be maintained for profit center and will be assigned to the individual company codes, right.
    In CO - FI real time integration , I need to select the objects - company code and segment. Whenever any repost happened in the CO module, system will create one FI document referring to the real time objects. We have more than 12 company codes located in different countries. In this way, system is fulfilling the cross company code postings in CO and will generate the FI documents, right.
    Please give me your valuable suggestion and when I am looking the note in Market place (91055), it is showing the CAD Interface.

  • OK17 Real Time Integration

    Hi
    Reconciliation ledger is not active in OKKP.  We are using New GL, Functional Area. Allocation cycles, order settlements will done.
    If I do not use OK17 then what will be impact.
    regards

    Hi  Imdad ,
    The real-time integration replaces the reconciliation postings from the reconciliation ledger. Therefore, you do not need a reconciliation ledger if you are using OK17 ..
    However, if you do not set the Reconciliation Ledger Active indicator for the controlling area (Controlling ® General Controlling ®Organization ® Maintain Controlling Area), you can no longer use the reports in report groups 5A* (5AA1-5AW1), since the reconciliation ledger is the data source for these reports. This applies to most reports under Accounting ® Controlling ® Cost Element Accounting ® Information System ® Reports for Cost Element Accounting/Revenue Element Accounting. Instead, you can use the report Cost Elements: Breakdown by Company Code under Reports for Cost Element Accounting/Revenue Element Accounting ® Overview. You can also create further reports in report group 5A21.
    Check this link for concept of Recon Ledger .... In New GL.. i think OK17 is right .. no need to Recon Ledger ..

    How do I go about with this, need steps to resolve this please
    Thank you

    Hi,
    1. Check which variant is assigned to your company code '1000' using this IMG path
    IMG->Financial Acctg (New)->Financial actg global settings (New) ->Real-Time integration of Controlling with Financial Actg ->Assign variants for Real-time Integration to Company codes.
    2. Check if document type is assigned to the variant assigned to your Company code in this path:
    IMG->Financial Acctg (New)->Financial actg global settings (New) ->Real-Time integration of Controlling with Financial Actg -> Define Variants for Real-Time Integration.
    Hope this helps.

  • New GL - Real time integration of controlling with financial accounting

    Hi,
    What are the impacts of activating new GL in already existing system. I need to use the real time integration of CO to FI functionality in new GL only. Can i activate new GL for this function only?
    Please advise
    thanks

    Hi
    Yes, by activating New GL you would have real time integration of FI with CO and you dont need reconciliation ledger as available before.
    More over at the document level itself the profit centers are written to the balance sheets accounts which was earlier done in the period end activities to transfer the profit centers to debtors and creditors etc., which is known as "Document Splitting".
    You also need assign the various GL accounts and sceaniors in Controllingwhich needs to activated with Document splitting.

  • Defining Account Determination for Real-Time Integr

    Dear all,
    I haven't understood yet about Account determination for the real-time integration of Controlling (CO) with Financial Accounting (FI).
    Please tell accounting process that use this account. And give me a detail example.
    Thanks so much
    Minhtb

    Hello
    This is the new feature in New GL accounting
    During allocations in Controlling, most of the postings created do not affect Financial Accounting. These postings do not update any G/L account transaction figures; they are postings within Controlling. If, however, an allocation in Controlling leads to a change in the functional area or any other characteristic (such as Profit Center or Segment) that is relevant for evaluations in Financial Accounting, a shift occurs between the affected items in the profit and loss statement. For this reason, this information has to be transferred to Financial Accounting. This reconciliation between Controlling and Financial Accounting takes place by means of real-time integration.
    As a result of real-time integration, all Controlling documents that are relevant for General Ledger Accounting are transferred from Controlling to General Ledger Accounting in real time. This means that Financial Accounting is always reconciled with Controlling.
    A document is created in Financial Accounting for each posting in Controlling. This means that the detailed information contained in the CO documents is always available in reports in New General Ledger Accounting. This information can be sorted by the following, for example:
    ●     Functional area
    ●     Cost center
    ●     Internal order
    Real-time integration replaces the reconciliation postings from the reconciliation ledger. Consequently, you do not need a reconciliation ledger.
    If, however, you do not set the Reconciliation Ledger Active indicator in Customizing for the controlling area, you cannot use the reports belonging to report groups 5A* (5AA1-5AW1). You set this indicator in Customizing for Controlling under General Controlling ® Organization ® Maintain Controlling Area. The reconciliation ledger serves as the data source for reports belonging to the report groups 5A*. You find these reports in the SAP Easy Access menu under Accounting ® Controlling ® Cost Element Accounting ® Information System ® Reports for Cost and Revenue Element Accounting.
    Replacement reports are available as follows:
    ●     You find the reports in the SAP Easy Access menu under Accounting ® Controlling ® Cost Element Accounting ® Information System ® Reports for Cost and Revenue Element Accounting (New).
    ●     You can create additional reports in report group 5A21. You can assign the report group to any drilldown report of New General Ledger Accounting using the report-report interface.
    ●     From the report Financial Statements Actual/Actual Comparison, you can call up the report Cost Elements: Breakdown by Company Code. You find the report Financial Statement: Actual/Actual Comparison in the SAP Easy Access menu under Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® General Ledger ® Information System ® General Ledger Reports (New) ® Balance Sheet/Profit and Loss Statement/Cash Flow ® General ® Actual/Actual Comparisons.
    You can define account determination for each controlling area. You do this in Customizing for Financial Accounting (New) under Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) ® Ledgers ® Real-Time Integration of Controlling with Financial Accounting ® Account Determination for Real-Time Integration. In this way, you use the same account determination as for the reconciliation ledger (transaction OK17). You can then use the reconciliation ledger reports to compare FI balances with CO balances.
    Prerequisites
    If you use real-time integration in at least one company code, you need to have activated company code validation for the related controlling area. You do this in Customizing for Controlling under General Controlling ® Organization ® Maintain Controlling Area ® Activate Components/Control Indicators. Otherwise, the reconciliation between Financial Accounting and Controlling at company code level is not possible.
    In Customizing for Financial Accounting (New), you have processed the IMG activities under Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) ® Ledgers ® Real-Time Integration of Controlling with Financial Accounting.
    Activate real-time integration for all company codes between which you want to make CO-internal allocations.
    In the IMG activity Define Variants for Real-Time Integration, do not select all CO line items for transfer. If the same line items are to be transferred as through the reconciliation posting from the reconciliation ledger, select the following line items:
    ●      Cross-Company Code
    ●      Cross-Business Area
    ●      Cross-Functional Area
    ●      Cross-Fund (if you use Public Sector Management)
    ●      Cross-Grant (if you use Public Sector Management)
    Features
    Value flows within Controlling that are relevant for General Ledger Accounting – such as assessments, distributions, confirmations, and CO-internal settlements – are transferred immediately. The FI documents are posted with the business transaction COFI. They contain the number of the CO document. This means that you can call up the CO document from the FI document, and vice versa.
    Activities
    If a document could not be transferred because the posting period was blocked in Financial Accounting or no account was found, for example, the document is included in a postprocessing worklist. You need to check this worklist regularly and process any documents in it. From the SAP Easy Access menu, choose Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® General Ledger ® Corrections ®Post CO Documents to FI.
    Example
    An internal order for business area 0001 is settled to a cost center of business area 0002. The document from this allocation is transferred in real time to Financial Accounting.

  • Real Time Integration CO-FI

    Hi,
    We have one plant with two different business (Energy/Telecom) to manage, mapped through the Segment field. We need to produce, for IFRS purposes, a P&L and a Balance Sheet by Energy and by Telecom.
    We execute a CO Distribution Cycle to allocate Eletricity Cost from a "Dummy Plant" Cost Center to "Energy" Cost Center and "Telecom" Cost Center. In this case, changing the cost center, automatically, we assign another Profit Center/Segment. With CO Allocation (with PCA deactivated) we don't assign the new Profit Center in NewGL, so we need to use the Real Time Integration to reassign the right Profit Center/Segment in NewGL, but the system reassign in FI only the P&L accounts, taking the information from the CO document.
    How can we reassign the BS accounts too?
    Thanks
    Stefano

    Hi,
    BS accounts can't be reassigned to CO only the P & L accounts.
    In FI P&L Accounts  is equal to Primary Cost Elements in CO.

    now some of these are constants that we need not determine every time.

    we already have a scenario maintained in the HPSD where it reads the mail picks up specific content based on key words, and creates a ticket.
    and If we can maintain these by modifying the method, then where can we maintain the multiple data/options for this
    And also please send me what were the steps u have done.
    U used a Z method or customized the Function module??

  • Oracle Data Integrator - Real Time Integration

    Hi,
    I want to know that, is there any possibility of integrating data in real-time using Oracle Data Integrator?
    If yes, does it affect the OLTP system performance? (Could it read from db logs,etc..)
    Thanks..

    Using ODI with Logminer-based CDC will affect performance on the source system more than using Oracle Goldengate, let me explain why:
    When using the ODI Logminer-based Journalisation the Logminer functionality will move the primary-key of the affected row into the journal table. When you are then ready to move the changed data, running an interface to move the data reads the Journal-view, which joins the journal table (primary keys) to the source data (and dealing with deleted rows), optimising out duplicate rows in order to bring across the then-current state of the data, which can then be loaded into the target system, on completion, the moved rows can be removed from the journal table. The data will appear in the journal table as soon as Logminer puts it there, which may be a lag of up to two minutes using asynchronous setting, whereas Synchronous Logminer applies "system triggers to the table, with the consequent overhead.
    With Oracle Goldengate, the comitted transactions are read from the log as soon as the log-writer puts the commit into the log. All the data is picked up from the log, at that point. It is then written to the trail-file system of Oracle Goldengate which can be propogated to multiple other systems potentially with sub-second latency, and minimal impact on the source system due to the efficient reading and writing mechanisms. One other consequence of using Oracle Goldengate is that you get every change of the data, not the optimised then-current state of the data when moved.
    Hope this explanation helps.
