Account Assignment Category in Shopping Cart

Hello people,
I would like to restrict dinamically the options in Account Assignment Category in Shopping Cart.
For instance, I need to show some values only if a shopping cart field is filled.
Do you know if there is a specific BADI for this?
Thanks a lot!

Hello,
Try using BBP_DOC_CHECK badi.
I hope this helps.

Dear Experts,
We are implementing SRM7 with SP06. We are using extened classic scenario. Recently we have noticed that system is not validating account assignment data at shopping cart level and creating purchase order in SRM, however at the time of PO transmission to backend system it is failing.
Does any one has faced this issue?If yes help me how to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Umakanth,
Could you check if in your settings for Define backend system customizing ( BBP_BACKEND_DEST table), option "realtime backend validation of FI data" is set or not ?

Account Assignment data in Shopping Cart not visible after upgrade of R/3

Hello,
We are currently working with SRM 5.0 and R/3 4.6 Backend system.
We are now upgrading our R/3 system from version 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
When we try to create a shopping cart, the account assignment Tab is not visible.
We checked the RFC (SRM-R/3 and R/3-SRM) and they our working fine.
Now we think the problem is caused by a configuration setting in which one defines the Backend System. In this configuration, the system category is still set to 4.6C (for the logical System of the Backend System)
We want to change this but in our list of system categories, the ECC 6.0 option is not present!
Questions:
1. Is this configuration setting the cause for our account assignment tab problem?
2. How can one add the System Category ECC 6.0 so it will appear in the configuration setting "Specify Backend System" ?
Anyone had experience with this? Please give us a clue.
Thanks in advance.
Aart

Hello Aart,
You can choose the ERP_2.0 option. It contains the correct structures for the new ECC 6.0 system.
You can change it and retest.
Kind regards,

Default G/L Account assignment value in Shopping Cart

Hello Experts,
Need your help but urgently.
There is a Requirement of creating new p.Category so inECC New material Grp is created and i repliczte the same in SRM system Development . Now i went to Default account assignment and assign my new P.Cateogry with default G/L account for Cost center.
It was working fine in Development but when i transport these settings to my SRM_quality system the source system for all the P.Categories Source system changes from QAS300SYCC to DEV300SYCC. i went to BDLS and run old and new logical system for table BBP_DET_ACCOUNT and source system gets changed but still when i create a Shppping cart default G/L account is not comming for all the P.Catoegories except the new one which i have created .
Smriti

Hi Smriti,
Please see the answer from a development colleague :
- We cannot recommend to transport IMG table V_BBP_DET_ACCT entries
from DEV to PROD for the following reasons:
a) F4-help entries of field CATEGORY_ID contains category GUIDs
     of LOGSYS DEV which may not exist in LOGSYS PROD.
b) If already entries in PROD exist in that IMG table it maybe
     overwritten.
- Recommendation:
Please maintain IMG table entries with CATEGORY_ID reference
always manually using F4-help (dropdown). Sorry for the inconvenience,
but CATEGORY_ID /GUID triggers backend finding and is a substantial
and unique key field in every SRM system which cannot easily be
reused in other logical systems.
Also see note 872533 top 3.
Hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
Matthew

Defining G/L Account for product category and account assignment category

We are using the standard configuration to default in a G/L account for a given product category and account assignment category combination. This works well for us when it comes to the shopping transactions (i.e. BBPSC01, BBPSC02, etc.), however we have a problem with this logic in the carry out sourcing transction BBPSOCO01. Our users are creating describe requirements which are then delivered to BBPSOCO01, however the user is not assigning the correct product category, so the sourcing department updates the cart with the correct product category. Upon doing so, the G/L account gets changed to whatever the V_BBP_DET_ACCT table determines is correct for that given product category/account assignment combination. We would like to know if their is a way to not fire the "default G/L account determination" when the shopping cart is changed in transaction BBPSOCO01. I already know about the BBP_DETERMINE_ACCT BADI but thought there might be a less expensive alternative. Our business treats the G/L account provided by the configuration as a guideline, therefore when the buyer changes the product category they also want to retain the account assignment information. Any suggesstions on how this might be accomplished outside of creating my own logic in the BADI?
Best regards,
Shawn O'Connor

I got the same message trying to make an entry in SPRO:
Define Backend System for Product Category
I found the note 305942 describing exactly the issue for my and above mentioned entry, which offers the correction, then the note 326802 which offers the correction of the first notes. However, both notes are for Releases 4.6C and D (from 2000), and we are using EHP2 FOR SAP SRM 7.0.
I see another discussions in SCN regarding this topic, but haven't found real solution yet. Any hints? At least the answer to previous question from Sharan would be appreciated.
Best regards,
Toni

Asking Account Assignment Category for Direct Materials

Experts,
ECS Scenario with PPS, ECC EHP4, SRM7.0.
The system is giving error as 'account assignment category is missing' for 'direct materials'. We have same problem while creating SC in SRM also and for PDP als.
Items with account assignment are working perfecly fine for both SC and PDP, for same product category.
For PDP: System did not give any error at PR stage, but if see log in SLG1 in SRM, we see that, it did not transfer to SRM as 'account assignment category' is missing.. moreover, If we create a standard PO item, for the same material group (without reference to PR) it is pefectly working. GR, IR everything is fine in ECC... So there should not be any problem in ECC account assignment(?).
We have not implimented any BADI. Just used the standard, as it is... Product category, location, storage location are maintained in PPOMA_BBP. Accounting system for vendor is also maintained...
What could be other possiblities? kindly help.
GH

hi
Can you create sc see account assignment folder though ypu order as direct material in PPS scenario?
please check BBP_PDIGP-subtype =dp and external requirement.
SAP has designed like that for PPS scenario
Direct materials with account assignment
check with SAP, Learn that SRM not creates a shopping cart for direct materials for the purchase requests.
since they are throwing explicitly error message
'account assignment category is missing' for 'direct materials'

Account assignment category for Service Confirmations

Hi,
We are on SRM_SERVER 550, SP11, SAP 4.7 backend.
While performing Service confirmations in SRM, the Account assignment category defaulted is different from that mentioned in shopping cart.
for e.g. If I create a shopping cart for a Service item with Account assignment category as "K - Expense" and on creation of PO when I try doing confirmation, the Account assignment category defaulted is for "Asset - Z", on the confirmation screen.
Please let me know how this issue can be resolved.
Note: In SRM PO and R/3 PO, the Account assignment category displayed is "K", same as that mentioned in shopping cart.
Thanks,
Kiran

Yes, Requester can change the Accunt assignment category. But in our scenario, we need to display the same Accunt assignment category as that in shopping cart, as Requester/Central Recipient will do the confirmation directly without changing the Accunt assignment category, similar to Goods confirmation.
The issue is: How do we default the same Accunt assignment category in the Confirmation screen, which is present in shopping cart.

Account assignment Category is not popping up for one User

User is trying to create the SC, but there is no Account assignment category( Cost center, WBS) being displayed when I try to search the Acc assignment category, it gives the results without any values. There is no values for Category field for the SC cart.
I verified the attributes for me and user, everything looks same.
Please advise.
Thanks & Regards

Hi
Seems like there is a bug in the System.
Are you talking of customer fields / standard fields - search help ?
Account assignment search help in SC.
User must have should the authorization object MBBP_SHLP assigned in attributes (SU01 transaction)._

Re: Search help for Acct Assignment not working
Also ensure, proper authorization objects are provided by BASIS team.
Let me know incase you need any assistance.
Incase nothing helps, You need to raise an OSS message with SAP on this.

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

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

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?
Regards,
Sandeep

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.
