Account group & pricing procedure

What is account group field when we create customer?
I am creating a standard sales order and there is error message saying "no pricing procedure could be determined" what does this mean? did i miss some step when i created customer or material?

The account group determines:
- The data that is relevant for the master record
- A number range from which numbers are selected for the master records
An account group must be assigned to each master record.
When you are creating new customer record, you have to select one of the account groups i.e. sold to party, bill to party, ship to party, payer etc.
When you create customers with different customer groups, you observe that data required is not same and numbering of records is different.
You got the error because you did not declare the pricing procedure for your sales area.
To assign pricing procedure go to transaction OVKK
click new entries and enter following info
sorg(sales organisation): enter your sales organisation
dchl(dist channel): enter your distribution channel
dv(division): enter your division
DoPr(document pricing procedure from document type): for example A
CuPP(customer pricing procedure): this comes from customer master record. enter what you entered in customer sales area tab, cust.pric.proc field
PriPr(pricing prodecureP): forexample RVAA01
CTyp(condition type): PR00
save it
This should solve your error

Reg. Account key Vs accural account in pricing procedure

dear Friends
Why we use actkey in procedure instead of accural account, in which case we will use accural account?
Thanks in advance
Rajakumar.K

Hi,
Accural account key is used when you want to make provision for something, you basically accure the amount in the account
Whereas account key is used in case of direct posting to perticular account, it is controlled by making specific condition as accrual in
the condition config in M/06

Hi Gurus,
Is there any assignment is possible between Customer Account Group & Output Procedure? What is the function of Output procedure DB0001, I mean how its works. How in Customer Master Output box will get open. Please give details as much as possible.
Thanks & Regards,
Savi

Dear Savi,
Yes it is possible to assign the output determination procedure to the account group.
IMG path to assign output determination procedure
SPRO>Financial accounting>Account recievables and Account payables>Customer accounts>Master data>Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data>Define Account Groups with screen layout (Customers) select account group then go in to details here you can find the field Output determ.proc. under general data tab.
If you assign the output determination procedure to the account group, the output box will open in the customer master record in the Sales area data as Documents tab here you can enter the output types which are related to you.
I hope it will help you,

Cash sales using Pricing procedure for account determination cash settl

Hi all ,
we are customizing for cash sales , we have defined all steps as per "cash account determination" in basic functions.but , system is posting again to customer account, i.e account receivable account.
if we assing "EVV" accounting key in the field "Account key for cash allocation" of billing type ( bv-cash sales),and assigning GL account for account key "EVV" in VKOA, it is working fine.
if we want to post cash account using cash account determination pricing procedure i.e by assining pricing procedure in billing document type, it is not working. Is there any additional cusotmizing has to be done in addition to steps involved in "cash account determination of basic functions?
can any one help on this?
regs,
ramesh

Hi,
thanq for your reply.
we have used same document types mentioned by you. for the same only cash account determination given.
if we remove revenue account determination procedure, system will not post accounting document, system will give message, this billing is not relevant for accounting.
our aim is to post sale account, but instead of accounts receivables, it has to post to cash clearing account.
so, we have assigned revenue account determination procedure ( for sales posting) and cash account determination procedure ( for cash clearing posting).
you may be right, some where i missed some thing, which is not tracked by me. If you can give steps, at least I can check, same thing was customized or not.

Issue in changing Account Group of a Customer

Dear Gurus,
I am trying to change the Account Group of a Sold to Party in XD07, from '0001' to 'Z001' (an exact copy of '0001'), but the system is giving an Error message "Change of account group not possible; customer used in SD documents".
          '0001' = Sold to Party

I checked and made sure there are no open docs against his name and his account has Zero balance. The Customer is not having any Blocks. Still system is giving the Error message, now what to do?

Restrict creation of customers according to account group and sales area.

Hey Guys,
I have this scenario wherein we have to restrict the creation of customers according to the sales area and account group. Here is an example.
Suppose I have a domestic customer say D01. Account group that I am using for this domestic customer is D001. Sales area is say D001/D1/D1. Now for exports I have E01 as customer. Account group is E001. Sales area is E001/E1/E1.
Scenario is
I should be able to create D01 only with account group D001 and in sales area D001/D1/D1. Customer D01 should not get created in account group E001 and sales area E001/E1/E1. Now to differentiate export and domestic customers we are using 'D' as a prefix for domestic customers and 'E' for export customers.
Same thing applies for Exports. Customer E01 should only get created with account group E001 and sales area E001/E1/E1.
Please advise on the same.
Appreciate a quick response.
Thanks in advance.

1. Partner Determination
SP, SH, BP, Payer are key to document processing. Automatic partner determination happens in the sales document, delivery and billing documents, sales activities, and the customer master record.
IMG  SD  Basic fncs  Partner fncs, define partner fncs [VOPA]
Each partner function can be assigned a partner type. This partner type specifies whether the partner is a customer, contact person, or vendor.

Pricing Procedure - Account Key & Accrls - Accruals configuration

Hi guys ,
I have question about these two config settigs for pricing procedure.
1 AccKey - Account Key
2 Accruals
Standard system has some GL accounts, such as ERB,ERF,ERL,etc .
If we need to have specific GL accounts for example, vendor discount,fuel surcharge we need to cofigure them and add them in pricing procedure.
I was wondering , who would be the functional group to configure those GL accounts, FICO or SD ?
Where can see the config of GL accounts ?
Thanks
Dona

Hi Done,
As per my under stand ERL, ERF and ERS are account keys not G/L accounts.
These account keys are assigned to particular G/L accounts so that integration will happend between SD and FI.
U can define ur own account keys as per client requirement. This account keys are defined by SD cunsultants.
menu path for define account keys:IMG- sales and Distribution- basic function- pricing - account assignment and costing- revenue account determination and difine and assign account key.
here u can define and assign account keys.
Hope this will helps u.
Thanks & Regards

Sub totalin pricing procedure post in accounting

Hi Friends,
I want to post the subtotal in pricing procedure into account?
Is there any method to post directly subtotal in to accont. Or we can assign the subtotal value to any condition , or assign a account key to this condition for account posting?
Thanks in Advance
Suchender Dagar

I believe you are talking about Subtotals (A,B,C...) added in the Pricing procedure.
These Subtotals are stoed in Pricing Communicaiton structures komp.What you would have to do is create a new condition type with a Alternative Calculation Type Routine to pick up value from KOMP relavant Subtotal instead of the general logic. Pass this to account with a Account key and othere combinations.
You can talking about generic Subtotals (with out Steps) in the pricing procedure to group and add all previous steps eg, Subtotal - Price Before Tax, then just create a condition type and add a new step with copy of previous Sub Total. Pass this to account with a Account key and othere combinations.
Hope this helps. If Yes please credit marks.

Jose

No Account key in pricing procedure

Dear All
I have Free goods item order. In the pricing procedure. There is no Account key mentioned in any of the condition type. This pricing procedure was created long time back, don't know when and by whom.
Now there is need to create retrun order for Free goods item.
Now when I am trying create Return order using same pricing procedure, it has asking me G/L accounts while saving sales return order. I have checked all the setting. Pricing for my item category has been set as B - 100% discount. I have copied item category used in the Free goods item order and ticked return in new item category. When I am trying to create retrun order using same pricing procedure. It is asking for G/L Account while saving the return order. when I check account assignmen. It says account key missing.
I am not able to understand, how then in the Free goods item order, it does not prompt for account key.
Can anybody save me. it si urgent.
Regards
Saurabh Gothivrekar

Hi
I got answer to my query. YOu need to specify the bill type while defining sales document type. This bill type should not have account assignment mentioned in it.
I changed the bill type, which does not have Account assignment procedure attached to it.
It has solved my problem

MM Pricing procedure - Condition type post to different GL account in MAP

Hi All,
We have a requirement for posting intercompany Stock transfer between Company A and B, and the transfer price will be Moving Average Price (say $ 100) + Mark up (say 25% i.e., 25) of supplying plant.
Created a new PO pricing procedure, and created a new Accrual condition type ZMRK for markup and made it statistical posting. Also in the pricing procedure the Condition type we assigned an Account key ZM1 and Accrual Key ZMA. we tried posting the Goods receipts in the receiving Company B, and it is posting the following entry :
Invetory A/C DR 125 (note: Account key ZM1 was not considered for debit account for markup)
GR/IR A/C CR 100
Markup Accrual A/C CR 25
REQUIREMENT: Our requirement is that the Mark-UP condition should not hit Inventory Account and should be debited to I/C Mark Up account (assigned to Account key ZM1) and entry should be as below:
Inventory A/C DR 100
Markup A/C DR 25
GR/IR A/C CR 125 (accrual is not required, if we can include the markup into GR/IR account)
OR
Inventory A/C DR 100
Markup A/C DR 25
GR/IR A/C CR 100
Markup Accrual A/C CR 25
NOTE: The Material is maintained as Moving Average Price and we dont want to add the Mark Up cost into the MAP of the receiving plant.
Please check and let me know if there is a way to do a condition type in PO pricing procedure to solve the issue of not hitting the inventory posting for condition record or any other way to handle this requirement.
Thanks in advance,
Surya

Hey surya,
I am also facing the same issue. Can you pls let me know whether you achieved this using any standard configuration.

Accounting Key & Accruals Key in Calculation Schema (Pricing Procedure)

Hi Freinds,
               I have a query regarding use of Accounting Key & accruals key in the Calculation Schema (Pricing Procedure).
What is the significance of Accounting key & accruals key in the calcuation schema? Which Accounting & Accruals keys have to be used for Gross price,Discount,Freight, tax etc in the Calculation schema? Please post your precious threads.
Thanks & Regards
Saeed Arif

hi
AcyKy - Account Key/ Accrls - Accruals:
for SD module
u2022     The values of the Sales Revenues, Sales Deductions, Freight Revenues, Tax Revenues, and Rebate Accruals etc. are going to be posted in the respective G/L accounts in Fi Module.
u2022     In order to do this we assign account keys/ accruals to the different condition types based on their classification. The classification shown below.
o     ERB Rebate sales deduct.
o     ERF Freight revenue
o     ERL Revenue
o     ERS Sales deductions
o     ERU Rebate accruals
u2022     For Ex.,
o     For all Price condition types like PR00 etc. we assign ERL - Revenue.
o     For all Discount condition types like K004, K005 etc. we assign ERS - Sales Deductions.
o     For all Freight condition types KF00 etc. we assign ERF - Freight Revenues.
o     For all Rebates condition types BO01 to BO05 we assign in Account key ERB - Rebates Sales deductions and for Accruals ERU - Rebate Accruals.
u2022     This account keys and accruals are in turn assigned to respective G/L accounts. So the system posts respective values in respective G/L accounts in Fi-Co Module.
u2022     This also one of the areas of SD - Fi Integration. SD consultants assign the account keys and Fi Consultants assign the respective G/L accounts in T.Code:VKOA.
Similarly for MM Module
Account keys are EIN, FR1, FR2, FR3, FRE, etc...
And in OBYC, we do necessary account determination for the same.
For e.g. Freight Posting in GR
Condition type FRA1, Accrual FR1 and in OBYC, assign Freight Clearing A/c to FR1
During GR;
Stock Account - Dr - 110 INR
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Cr - 100 INR
Freight Clearing A/c - Cr - 10 INR
transaction event key is the Key that identifies different types of G/L account.
The account key enables the system to post amounts to certain types of
revenue account. For example, the system can post freight charges
(generated by the freight pricing condition) to the relevant freight
revenue account.
use
To enable the system to find the relevant account for provisions (for
accrued delivery costs or miscellaneous provisions, for example), you
must assign a transaction/event (internal processing) key to each
condition type that is relevant to provisions in the step Define
Calculation Schema.
if u search on SDN or GOOGLE u will get many threads for this
hope it helps
regards
kunal

Account document not created Message no. VF062 for the pricing procedure

When I tried to create an invoice I came across this problem of Account document not created Message no. VF062.
I created a pricing procedure with base price,BED,EDU CESS,HIGH EDU CESS ,VAT,CST.
Condtion record was set for each pricing condtion type.
Sale order>delivery->invoice
When invoice was stored i get the message accounting document not created.
After that i changed the condtion class of (BED,EDU CESS,HIGH EDU CESS ,VAT,CST.) from D-tax to B-price.Now the invoice is stored without the messag(accounting document not created).What will be the problem associated with this

i changed the condtion class of (BED,EDU CESS,HIGH
EDU CESS ,VAT,CST.) from D-tax to B-price
Whaterver condition types you have with condition class as D, I am sure, you should have assigned some Account Keys in your Pricing Procedure. Ensure that those Account Keys are appearing in OB40 as otherwise, you will face this issue.

Tax Condition type : Account keys in SD Pricing procedure .

Dear SAP Gurus,
In the configuration of the taxes (Service, Ecess & H & Ecess)
The tax codes are defiined and the condition type JXX has been defined with the account keys .
Then the taxes are automatically posted to the accounts .
But in the SD pricing procedue for the same condition type the account key defined is EXD .
But where is this account key going to post the value of the condition type JXX ..
Please explain the use of the account key in the Tax Conditon types in the pricing procedure.
regards,
Amlan Sarkar.

Hi,
The account keys ERL , ERS, DIFF which are related to revenue and sales deduction in your pricing procedure are defined in transaction VKOA. Here the account key, chart of accounts, your sales organization and G/L accnt combination are maintained.
Whereas all the tax codes G/L accounts get picked from transaction OB40 , So in your pricing procedure where ever you see tax account keys, make sure you go to OB40, input your tax code and then you will see all the G/L accounts against each respective account key. This is nothing but the calculation of tax on sales / purchases.
Hope this will solve your query.
If it does, please dont forget to reward points for contribution.
Regards
Ravi
