Account determination process

Hi,
What is the difference between accurals key and account key?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi,
Account key :Account key is mainly used for Frieghts.Account key enables amount to post to certain revenue accounts, for example freight charges. When you add freight related condition types, it will be added to separate G/L accounts, means this will not be added to material price.
Accrual key :Accruals mean accumulating.With the aid of the account key, the system can post amounts to certain types of accruals accounts. For example, rebate accruals which are calculated from pricing conditions can be posted to the corresponding account for rebate accruals.

ACCOUNT DETERMINATION "INTERCOMPANY SALES &3RD PARTY SALES" -kishore,AK ,

HI ,
   Rajesh , Kishore , AK ,
      well 2day i had   client interview , he was very much stressing on " ACCOUNT DETERMINATION " process in intercompany sales , both in ordering comapny and delvering plant .
       At the same time account determination for 3rd party sales . well got some docs had brief capsule study , still stuck up .
   can u pl throw come clarity .
Regards,

Dear Jerry
Inter-Company Scenario in SAP is quite different than its literal meaning.
Inter-Company means, customer gives order to company code A (PlantA), but Plant A is not having stock, so it passes on to Plant B(CoCd B).So in Sales order of A you enter Plant B.
So now goods are delivered by Plant B to Customer and commercial invoice for customer is from CoCd A.
Cocd B just gives inter company invoice.
Now Comming to account determination , it totally depends on pricing procedure as account keys are there. There is not much difference from standard scenario, but you can have seperate G/L Accounts
If you are talking about <b>sales between different company codes</b>, then this can be handled having different sales document and thus different pricing procedure, you can ask customer , what is there requirement. and can say that it is like normal sales cycle only
<b>Third-Party Processing</b>
1) two standard process provided by SAP in the frames of the third-party processing:
a) pure third-party process: X creates the sales order, automatically purchase requision and later a purchase order will be created at the vendor. Then the vendor sends the goods directly to your customer and send the invoice to X. The company X creates the invoice to the customer Y.
b) individual purchase order: the same process, but the vendor sends the goods not to the customer directly, but first to X, and then the company X delivers the goods to the customer Y. The invoice is coming from Z to X (transaction MIRO), and then X creates invoice to Y.
you can refer the accounting document to get Idea of account determination

Material Management Account determination

Hi Gurus,
I have a material with MAP and a stock of 20 Kg received on PO. Now I want to receive 30 kg on different po and it ask me to create Account determination for price different account.
Material is having Handling Unit associated with.
Thanks
Raja

Hi,
Using transaction code OBYC , check if account assignment is done for the posting key "PRD" or not, in the client that you are running the transaction.. If it is missing , update with apprpriate G/L account for posting the price differences .You will be able to resolve this error.Because the G.l accounts fall under master data , probably you have to do the assignment in all the clients for respective valuation areas( it may be missing in one of the clients , where you are currently facing the error )
( How ever in valuatioon and account determination process , the Price difference account is posted if
1) The material is valuated at Standard price and goods receipt is done at a different price - at the time of GR, subsequently at the time of Invoice verification.
2) If price difference is observed between the GR and the Invoice and if sufficient stocks are not available to post the value to stock account - in case materials are valuated at Moving average price.
Since you are stating that the system is asking for Price Difference account at the time of GR - the materials must be valuated on Std price, please confirm if the material vlation is with MAP and even then its asking for PRD accounte determination. )
Hope this information helps and I am looking for your reply also.

Invoice No. 4902 dtd 23.07.09 u201C(error in account determination)u201D

Hello SAP GURUS,
The billing document no. 90175064 had been generated but the document has not been posted in respective G/L.
what I understood i would like to share with you that-
The accounting document was not generated, because system did not found respective GL for condition type ZDIC (Customer discount). The condition type ZDIC is only applicable in case of selling of Molten Metals.But due to same batch no.(B17746) for both the Pig Iron & Molten Metal, system wrongly picked the condition type ZDIC in this case as well.
While in the subject, i also wish to inform you that this is the case of last year (23.07.2009) when logic for selecting customer discount was Batch specific.
Now i required to reconcile the account,for that We have change the Billing date to 24.08.2010 so that posting can be taking place in current year. But error message is coming u201C(error in account determination)u201D
I request you to help me on this.
Regards
Rajiv

Account det process

account det process configuaration

Hi,
Find below Revenue account determination process.
Whenever a sale is posted to accounting, SAP must determine the account where the revenues and discounts should be posted. For example revenue from domestic sales shall go to an account and export sales shall go to a different account. Depending upon various conditions the relevant accounts shall be determined.
Through Revenue Account Determination the billing values are transferred from the SD to FI. Revenue account determination is carried out using the condition technique.
The following steps are involved in the Revenue Account assignment:-
      Check master data relevant for account assignment
      Define dependencies for revenue account determination
      Define access sequence and account determination types
      Define and assign account determination procedures
      Define and assign account keys
Check master data relevant for Account Assignment:
     Through check master data relevant for account assignment, one can create Account Assignment Grouping criteria
     This grouping then provides the system with an extra variable to determine the required G/L account
     After creation of the account assignment groups, they must be assigned to the Material Master and Customer Master records
Account Determination Procedure Steps:
1. Account determination table:
    In the account determination table, you define the criteria on which account determination should depend.
2. Access sequence:
    Here, you define in which sequence fields are read from the billing document (header and item). An access sequence refers to the permitted field combinations stored in the condition table.
3. Account determination type:
    The account determination type is a module of the conditions technique. You have to create at least one account determination type and allocate it to an account determination procedure.
4. Account determination procedure:
    The account determination procedure contains the necessary account determination types with which the SAP System can automatically find the revenue accounts.
5. Account key:
    With the three-digit account key, you finally allocate the revenue account.
SPRO- IMG- Basic Functions- Account Assignment / Costing- Revenue Account Det- Assign General Ledger Accounts (GL accounts)
Account Keys:
     KOFI: Account based
     KOFK: cost based
     KOFI00: procedure for account determination
We need to assign the G/L accounts to the combination of:
     Application: specify V sales & distribution
     Condition type: specifies condition types in the proc if controlling is activated in finance take the cond type KOFK other wise take KOFI
     1. Chart of Accounts: its a classification scheme, consisting of a group of GL accounts. Here we need to specify in which chart of accounts the GL account we are assigning exists
     2. Sales organisation
     3. Account assignment group of customers: this is specified in the CMD. (billing above tax table)
     4. Account assignment group of materials: this is specified in MMR. (Sales orgn)
     5. Account key: this is specified for each cond type in the procedure
Note: - You need to assign the G/L account to the combination of 1,2,3,4 & 5.

V     KOFI     INT     2000     02     TR     ERL     50000
Configuration steps for Revenue Account Determination: This concept is based on condition technique.
1. Master data relevant for Account Assignment: Path: IMG > SD > Basic Functions > Account assignment > Check master data relevant for account assignment.
2. Define Condition Table: Path: IMG > SD > Basic Functions > Account assignment > Define dependencies for revenue account determination
3. Define Access Sequence: Path: IMG > SD > Basic Functions > Account assignment > Define access sequence and account determination types > Maintain access seq. for account determination
4. Define Account Determination Type: Here we assign Access Sequence to Condition Type
IMG > SD > Basic Functions > Account assignment > Define access sequence and account determination types > Define account determination types
5. Define Account Determination Procedure: Account Determination Procedure is defined and assigned with Account Determination Types
6. Assign Account Determination Procedure to Billing Type: Path: IMG > SD > Basic Functions > Account assignment > Define access sequence and account determination types > Define and assign account determination procedures > Assign account determination procedure
7. Define and assign Account Keys: IMG > SD > Basic Functions > Account assignment > Define access sequence and account determination types > Define and assign account determination procedures > Define and assign account keys
8. Assign G/L accounts: IMG > SD > Basic Functions > Account assignment > Define access sequence and account determination types > Define and assign account determination procedures > Assign GL account
9. Master data to be maintained for Account Determination: Account assignment group in CMD-Billing tab and in MMR- Sales org-2.
Hope this would help you.

Account determination on acceptance of SES

Hello experts,
Could somebody explain how different is the account determination process for services vis a vis materials. I note that, on SES acceptance, the consumption account is debitted via GBB > VBR > Material / Service group and GRIR is credited via WRX > null valuation class.
Now, my issue is that I'm unable to post delivery costs even after setting the OBYC for the concerned account key, in the pricing schema, Say "ABC" > the valuation class for the service group > GL. It's giving error message.
Hope to get some clear idea / advice from experts .... Steve.. r u there, please.
Best regards,
Sheeja.

Hi,
But agency charges are not quite the same as delivery costs, they are simply another service that is performed.
yes they link directly to the temporary staff that was used but this is normally factoreed into the staff costs because in most cases you are paying the agency directly for the staff costs.
Agency costs like this are often handled as a separate PO.
Remember that the basic concept in SAP (and similar systems) is that the PO header data relates to one vendor only (there is no option to have multiple payment terms, etc.). Delivery charges are slightly different in that these are often (not always) simple payments direct to certain types of vendors (customs, insurance, freight etc.)
Having said all of this I can definitely see your point and I agree that there SHOULD be a way to add these type of costs to a service PO but this is not possible in the standard SAP system and so separate POs for these charges are the option that is available.

Account Determination - Delivery Order Confirmation Process

Hi Experts,
How the Account determination will happen in the Delivery Order Confirmation process. Is the any Account determination analysis tool available to check the same ?
Regards
Prasath

Hi prashanth
Revenue account determination is the place where SD- FI integration takes place
What ever we do in the revenue account determination (t.code VKOA)Generally for every condition type in our pricing procedure we assign account keys wheather it is freight , tax etc
Now in revenue account determination , to those account keys we assign G/L accounts.
Now when you do billing , some condition types will come in the billing document . and once you save the billing document those amounts will be flowing to the respective account key G/L accounts
to FI people
say for example if for MWST account key is MWS , in billing if this MWST condition type comes and once you save the billing document then the tax amount will be flowing to the MWS G/L account .and FI people will look into it
Once you save the billing document automatically a accounting document and controlling document gets generated
Now after Post Goods Issue , we save the delivery document here the SD - MM integration takes place
Once you do PGI , automatically the G/L accounts get updated and the valuation level comes down. So after doing PGI system generated material document and controlling document.

Srinath

Message VE121 - No G/L account found in account determination type KOFI

Currently, if an invoice has an account determination error we have to go to path VF03 -> Environment -> Acct Determination Analysis -> Revenue Account to get all the item condition record. Then we have to click each condition record in each item in order to figure out which one has account determination error (Message type VE 121).
If an invoice has 500 line items, this manual process is very time-consuming. Is there a FM or R3 Report to retrieve the information and let us know which item have account determination error? Thanks

I don't think there is one, but you can probably look at the logic of SD_ACCOUNT_DETERMINATION_SHOW and see if you can get it in some sort of internal table programatically instead of showing it.

A/c determination process - automaticaly flows to the exact plant wise

HI,
I'm posting again, on my blw query,
Pls explain the process abt a/c determination for service po's (with item catelory & a/c assign) during miro.
For example. I have three plants and same tax codes used for all plants and gl numbers are diff 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.

Hi ,
For the automatic account posting to different G/L account for different plant---- Group the plants with different grouping by assigning different valuation grouping code. All the automatic account posting config is to be done for each of the valuation grouping code.
Thus the automatic account postings to different G/L accounts happen for different valuation grouping code.
Thanks & Regards,
Amjad

PR00 120 G/L account 0000785101 determined from Account determination type

Hi all,
I am getting the following error while saving sales order.
PR00 120 G/L account 0000785101 determined from Account determination type
I dont know why this error is occuring while creating sales order. Because of this issue, i am not able to save the sales order.
How to solve this issue? Can anyone give me solution for this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Babu

Hiii
I hope you people are using COPA or Controlling in your process.
This error is basically comes if you are not maintained the KOFK setting, same where u have done your KOFI setting, you have to do same with KOFK in Transaction VKOA.
see what setting you have done for KOFI, copy that line and change KOFI to KOFK and save it.
Hope it will solve your problem

Cost of Goods Sold account determination by customer type (inter-company)

We have a business need to separate the the cost of goods sold be customer type. Specifically separating the inter-company cost of goods sold from the 3rd party cost of goods sold.
The standard COGS account determination in GBB/VAX only allows for differentiating between material valuation class.
Has anyone attempted this before and what method worked?

For those who may need an answer to this, our solution was the following:
1)       Created new types for SO, SO Item, Sched. Line, Delivery, Delivery Item, Billing type
2)       Created new Pricing procedure
3)       Created new movement type Y61/Y62 modeled after 601/602
4)       Mapped Y61/Y62 to account modifier ZAX.
5)       Mapped GBB/ZAX to the new account.
Benefits, they now have better view of the orders going inter-company. It is flexible enough to adjusting prices for intercompany separate from standard orders, even though for now it is a straight copy of cost. They are able to remove the sales/use tax, from the calculations. They are able to plan with these orders separated out. Plus, this will standardize their process for inter-company.
Hope this helps someone.
Cheers!
Rick

Purpose of account determination in Sales Order

Hi
My question is whether account determination happens at Sales Order level and if yes what is the purpose. Since I saw account determination procedure only to be assigned at billing document type but not in sales document type.

Hi,
Dear.. It is very basics of accounting. Unless there is a give and take complete process in sales process, the cycle is not completed. So there is no need of accounting entry.
Billing is the final documentation with regards to accounts to register who has sold what to whom (Debits and credits). In practicality unless the transaction is complete, there is no accounting entry, when you raise the sale order, it does not affect your accounts, unless you completely process through delivery and billing.

Account determination analysis in sales order

Hi there,
in a sales order processing (VA02/VA03) I'd like to know which accounts will be determined prior to invoincing it.
I find the "account determination analysis" tool through the menù path: "Environment" -> "Analysis" -> "Account Determination" (FCODE = 'KTPR'), but it shows an empty screen
The same tool shows the desired data during an invoice processing (VF02/VF03).
How can do to see the account determination analysis in sales order processing, and not in invoice processing ?
This tool shows an empty screen even if the order is invoiced, or not.
So I'm asking: which is the meaning of this tool inside sales order processing ?
Hope I've explained correctly my problem.
Thanks in advance.
Andrea

Hi Nagaraj,
the sales order amount is > 0, but the account determination analysis tool still show me an empty screen
It seems this tool runs only into invoice processing.
I try to follow the ABAP debugger and at a certain point it uses the "account determination procedure" (KOFI00), that in the sales order is missing ... maybe this is the problem ...
Best regards
Andrea
