Hello
To enable goods movements to take place through the sales order stock, you must select the requirement class that specifies that account assignment category that specifies that goods movements takes through sales order. If u want collect the costs and revenues to the sales order make the consumption posting field E, if u don;t want collect the costs and revenues to the sales order then that field should be empty.

How to make default account assignment category in planned order?

Scneario Description:
1. Sales order for a configurable parent item is created in ERP & order BOM is changed & transferred to APO. In APO MRP run takes place for that parent item, which creates a planned order with account assignment category "M" (M:Individual Customer w/o KD-CO.
2. Now based on the dependant requirement generated for parent item, MRP takes place for one of the child item in ERP & purchase requisition gets created for child item.
Question:
1. Can anybody help me how i can make default account assignment as "F" (F:Order) in the planned order of parent item?
2. PR created for child item also has default account assignment category as "M". we wish to change that to "F".
Thanks & best regards
Hemchandra & Sandeep Mandhana

Hi V. Suresh,
The account assignment category maintained in the requirement class for parent item is 'M'.
No account assignment category maintained has been maintained in the requirement class Semi-finished component (this component is sent for subcontracting).
The business process is as follows:
1. Create Sales Order for Parent say ME_PARENT.
2. Order BOM for ME_PARENT is created and subsequently cifed to APO.
3. PP/DS heuristic is run for ME_PARENT.
4. MRP for component ME_COMP is run in ERP.
It can be seen that purchase requistion for ME_COMP has a/c assgn category as 'M'. It seems that the ME_COMP has inherited 'M' from ME_PARENT.
We would like to have no a/c assgn category for ME_COMP.
Any pointers?

PO with account assignment category F

Hi Gurus,
For PO with account assignment category F, the system is creating aaccounting documents during GRN for some POs & for some pOs it is not . What could be the reason.
Regards,
Kumar

Hi SAPMM6,
Check details of account category refernce 'F' whether tick is there for GR Valuated.
Also when you are creating PO with multi-account assignment then also GR is non-valuated as per SAP standerds.
Also check the both POs for material code and there valuation classes.
Hope your problem gets resoled.

Account Assignment Category for third party process.

Hi ,
I would like to use different account assignment category for third party process. This account assignment cat must be assigned at the sales order itself. Is there any config for this.
Kindly help me.
Ram.

You can create new account assignment category for 3rd party process by copying existing std one 2 in configuration under MM - Purchasing - Account assignment - maintain account assignment category
You can assign your own set of control for account assignment based on requirement.
SAP use TAS item catgory in 3rd Sales order which is linked to Pur Req account assignment catgory 2.If you are defining own account assignment catgory than you need to config set-up with TAS sales order item catgory.
Hope above details will help to move further...sanjay karkun

Account assignement category for purchase requisition - error message

Hi All!
I created a new Item category in service order (IW31) "O" with the account assignment category "O". If I don't set the Consumption posting indicator to V for this category, when I set the account assignment category "O" to the purchase requisition in <i>Plant Maintenance and Customer Service-Maintenance and Service Processing-Maintenance and Service Orders-General Data-Define Account Assignment Category/Document Type for Purchase Requisitions</i>, I receive the message:
<b>"Acct. assign. cat. "O" for purchase req. does not exist.
Message no. CS 075"</b>
The client request is not to charge immediately for the goods receipt with the relevant costs the service order. The client wants to create the goods receipt in a storage location for the plant and then confirm the components and charge the costs after the component confirmation (movement type 261) - similar to stock material.
Any idea about what should I do?
Thank you.

Hi Everyone,
The problem is solved now. The cause was that the test requisition that I was making was satisfying more than one rules and hence I end dated the remaining rules which solved the problem.
Thanks!

Hi Fabio,
As far as I know that´s the standard behaviour. There are some checks in the system at the time of creating a PO, so when you fill any field the EKPO-KNTTP remains unchangeable.
You can check that this is hard-coded this way in program
SAPLMECO, in include LMECOU04 :
   IF I_PSTYP EQ PSTYP-DIEN OR
      I_PSTYP EQ PSTYP-BLNK.
Dienstleistungspositionen nicht ändern
     MESSAGE E456(ME) WITH I_KNTTP RAISING CHANGE_NOT_ALLOWED.
   ENDIF.
Review note 570767 as well.
This is hard coded so you can not change the account assignment. Please
see the below code. You can set a breakpoint and test this.

G/L Account for Account Assignment Category in PO

Hi,
I am creating Purchase Order based on Purchase Requisition. My Account assignment category is "E". G/L account is "400000". But error message is coming as "G/L account 400000 cannot be used (please correct)" & "Purchase order item 00010 still contains faulty account assignments".
Kindly clarify. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Maheswaran.

Hi Maheswaran,
Generally said, SAP decide G/L automaticlly. but if you want to check, you can:
First you need check in your system the Acct modification of you account assignment E in IMG-MM-Purchasing-Account Assignment-Maintain Account Assignment Categories. For example , in my system it is VBR.
then you check which is the corresponding G/L of VBR(Pay attention to the Chart of Account!) IMG-MM-Valuation and account assignment-account determination--account determination without Wizard. ( double click GBB (fill in your chart accounts name such as INT ) to see if 40000 the right in the row VBR (of course, make the right for valuation class and valuation modification which is decided by your material and valuation area)
Best regards,
Cliff

Getting Account Assignment Category D error

Dear All,
While creating a debit note with internal order, with item category ZTPS (Standard item category for project) i am getting error message" item category "D" is not defined ". This is rollout prject and i have checked in the sytem i found some documents with same item cateogry .
Please advice.

Hi,
Create network parameters in sales document (SD)
You can make the default settings required to create a network from a sales order in the menu options Basic data -> Standard structures -> Parm. SalesOrd->Ntwk (Parameters for sales order -> network).
If you do not enter data here, you can also enter the necessary data online directly in the sales order.
The data in the material master actually controls whether a network can be created from a sales order item. To set this up, you should enter the core information like (assembly type, order type (i.e. network or order type) configuration, account assignment category) in the requirements class for the material. The requirements class is determined by the strategy group (see above) which was maintained in the material master.
Therefore, if you want to be able to create a network while working in a sales order, you must have maintained the corresponding MRP data or strategy group for the material being sold.
Standard settings
SAP has predefined the following strategy groups:
83: Assembly processing with network, account assignment category E (assignment to sales document. A network with network type PS05 (header assignment) is created.
85: Assembly processing with network/project, account assignment category D (assignment to project). A network with network type PS04 (activity assignment) is created.
In both cases, the system automatically creates a network with network type PS04.
Recommendation
Do not change the default settings that SAP provides in Customizing. You can use these defaults to set up your own strategy groups, requirement types etc. and specify other network types or other settings for the availability check.
Note
When values are missing from the sales order item, such as the plant, the system cannot determine the requirements type which means that it also cannot create a network from the sales order.
In order to have the scheduled dates in the network be copied into the sales document as confirmed dates, you must have maintained scheduling parameters for network type PS04 and PS05 in Customizing.
Keep this in mind when you define your own network types.
Among the scheduling parameters to be maintained, you should set the indicator reconcile basic dates .
You must set this indicator if you want the system to copy the scheduled dates into the basic dates and then pass them on to the sales order as confirmed dates.
Hope this will resolve your problem.

Significance of Item Category / Account assignment category

Hi All,
Can any tell what is the significance of Item Category / Account assignment category in Sap. Why it is used.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi
The account assignement comes into picture when you order the material as Indirect. In case of direct it gets valuated under raw material, semi finished, finished etc (Valuation class).
In Account assignment you assign a specific G/L account to a cost center. In reality you can have different cost centers like Production, Maintenance, Quality etc and different G/L accounts like Raw material consumption , machine tools, computer software, buildings, machineries etc.
Suppose if a machine has been procured for production purposes it gets accounted in the machineries G/L account and the cost is accrued by production. Same case if a measuring instrument is procured by Quality department it gets accounted in machineries G/L account and the cost is accrued by Quality department.
It helps in analysing the spend of each department as per the allocate d budget and also helps in allocating budgets to respective departments for future purposes.

Purchase order and Account assignement category- Change

hi.,
We are trying to receive the Purchase order of High value components into INVENTORY.
However, most of these Purchase Orders were created with account assignments.
Because of that, if we receives these POs, they will be consumed against the object identified in the account assignment.
Additionally, some of these have been invoiced already and would need to be backed out from the finance side.
Question: How can we receive these STO Purchase orders and then make changes through Movement type ( or any other way ) so that the HIgh Value Components that are consumed against that AC assignment can be subsequently moved into Invenotory.
Also, what are the other options ( FI will not open Previous period) so that the PO's which have been invoiced can be reversed against that AC assignment.
Thanks All

hi Rajesh.,
As mentioned earlier, these Purchase orders are STO's which have been already created and we are waiting to do the GR for the same. Items in the STO PO are of High value which we need to bring into INVENTORY.
But, because these STO PO's were created with account assignments, if we do GR now, they will be consumed against the object identified in the account assignment.
Some of these STO PO's have been invoiced already and FI has indicated that they could cancel the invoices for those STO PO's in previous posting period.
Question again : How can we receive these STO Purchase orders and then make changes through Movement type ( or any other way ) so that the HIgh Value Components that are consumed against that AC assignment can be subsequently moved into Inventory and not to a cost Center (202)
Step (1) Can we cancel the Invoiced items> reverse the GR for invoiced Items>reverse STO for PO ?
Step (2) Can we reverse the STO for PO for which GR has not been done? then
Step (3) Change the PO through ME22N, remove the Account assignment category?
Or how do we correct this situation for
(1) PO's already invoiced.
(2) PO for which GR has not been made. How can we receive them into Stock and not Cost center.
Anticipating a reply
Thanks
Sri

Exchange rate problem between GR&IR for PO with account assignment category

ear SAP experts.
We have used expense puchase order through account assignment category.
the cost object include cost center,sale order,order.because we dont use Fixed assets module in SAP,when purchase fixed assets,we also use account assignment category but no need to fill assets number(Not use account assignment category A).
the processing in current system when there is exchange rate difference between GR&IR as follows.
purchase order Currency :USD company code currency:HKD
example 1-- when something purchased into expense account,
Good receipt (1USD=7.75HKD)
Dr :expense account 100USD    775HKD
Cr: GR/IR        100USD    775HKD
Invoice receipt
Dr : GR/IR         100USD    775HKD
    Expense account            25HKD
CR: Vendor        100USD    800HKD
Example 2-- when something purchased into Fixed assets account,
purchase order :USD company code currency:HKD
Good receipt on Oct .01. 2007 (1USD=7.75HKD)
Dr :Fixed assets account 100USD    775HKD
Cr: GR/IR           100USD    775HKD
Invoice receipt on Dec.01.2007 (1USD= 8HKD)
Dr: GR/IR              100USD     775HKD
   Fixed assets account                25HKD
Cr: Vendor            100USD     780HKD
The fixed assets is depreciated from Nov,2007.
There is one problem that after the fixed assets is depreciated, the value for the fixed assets is added , the finance clerk have to adjust the added value from fixed assets account to Exchange Difference-Gain/Loss account by manual.
Our problem is
How to configure in order to make the exchage rate difference into Exchange Difference-Gain/Loss account for purchase order with account assignment category,not the original assigned account in purchase order item.
Many thanks
Fanny

Hi Fanny
Even though the question is bit unclear, I guess you are looking for the T-Code OBYC. Use transaction key KDM for configuring the exchange gain/loss
