Account key in purchasing procedure

Hi,
Can someone please explain to me what is the field "account key" in the customizing of purchasing procedure, and how can I link a G/L account to that account key.
I understand how to use the accrual field in the p.procedure and was able to link an account to the accrual key,  BUT I'm trying to do the same with the field "account key" and I'm having no luck.
Thanks,
Dave

Charlie ,
If I don't want the condition to be an accrual, is there any way to define an account to the condition?
My issue is that once the condition is an accrual, when I reform a return PO, movent 161, the condition (when defined as accrual) is not revered.
Thanks,
Dave

  • Account ket in purchasing procedure

    Hello,
    I have an issue regarding to a purchasing condition.
    I have defined a condition for "extra costs".
    I need the cost to go to a different G/L account, meaning I want to define that for this conditon the cost will go to G/L AAA where as the regular purchasing price will go to the normal account.
    I tried marking the condition as an accrual, but I had a problem here too, when ordering the the item (with the additional costs) G/L AAA was debited as expected but when returning the goods (with movmnt161) the G/L was debited once again. (SAP says this is because the conditon is marked as an accrual)
    I thought to try to post the cost using the account key in the purchasing procedure, but I had no luck.
    Can you please give me an idea how to solve this issue.
    How is it possible to determine the G/L via account key.
    Thanks in advance,
    Dave

    Hi kunal ingale,
    Thanks for your reply,
    I think your suggestion does not help me since this seems to be for taxes, and my conditoin is not a tax.
    Do you know how link a G/L account to the account key (in the purchasing procedure), that way I can link the conditon to the GL.
    Thanks,

  • 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.

    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

  • ACCOUNT KEY IN TAX PROCEDURE

    Hi
    This is a tax related problem. I am implementing FICO in a US Based company.I am using TAXUSJ as the tax procedure.
    In US the tax is split in to the State, county and City. We have seperate tax rates for each of these items on the basis of the tax jurisdicition code.
    Now the problem is that when I am creating the tax codes with reference to tax jurisdiction for Country key "US", the inputable field is coming only for account key-NVV, VS1,MW1. The rest of the account keys are greyed out.Now if I want to maintain seperate tax rates for each of the account key so that I can post the amount related to state, county and city tax in seperate GL accounts, the system is not allowing to edit the field in front of the other account keys.
    How can this be done? Can any one give some help on the same.
    Regards

  • Freight Purchase order and Account Key

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create Material purchase order with freight conditions.
    I am performing the below steps
    1) Create Material purchase order with vendor, i am manually inserting the price for freight condition type and inserting a different freight vendor in the Freight conditions.
    2) I have created new account key for freight purchases and inserted the account key against the freight condition type in Pricing procedure
    3) I have added a G/L account for freight account key in OBYC
    4) When i do GR the freight value is reflecting as price difference (PRD), i want this to hit the freight account. I am using Material Ledger type of valuation.
    5) I am unable to do invoice (MIRO) for freight vendor, i get a message saying balance not zero.
    Let me know where i am going wrong, or is there any other setting that i have missed out.
    Awaiting your inputs here.
    Thanks,
    Regards
    Raghavendra

    In order to be able to also choose this freight condition in MIRO, your condition type shall have the cond. category B (delivery costs) in trs M/06.
    Remember also that if you create the PO with reference to some other document (PIR, contract, another PO), then the condition records are copied to the new PO and the customising changes are not read. The same happens if the system automatically copies the conditions from the previous PO even if you haven't specified this explicitly.
    You can see the condition category that is actually assigned to the condition in your PO by selecting this condition and choosing "Condition detail" beneath the table.

  • 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.

  • Transaction Key for Purchase Account

    Hi Dear All,
    I want ti define another Purchase account key for frieght like FRE.
    How to creat it?
    Regards
    Gitesh

    Hi Gitesh,
    We won't assign Purchase A/C keys in Pricing Procedure.
    Normally we activate Purchase A/C posting @ company code level under the following settings.
    SPRO - MM - Valuation and Account Assignment - Account Determination - Account Determination Without Wizard - Purchase Account Management.
    As I have already mentioned above system uses the Standard transaction key EIN & EKG for Purchase A/C postings.
    I dont think we have the option to change this standard one.
    Now if your requirement is to use a different transaction key instead of FRE then create a new trans.key & assign the same to the freight condition type in Pricing Procedure.
    Hope its clear.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Procedure account key and accrual

    Dear all,
    1 What is the difference for account key and accrual in procedure M/08.
    2 I maintain both FR1 at account key and FR3 at accrual. During GR, I only see gl account for FR3 showing. Why not FR1 at account key?
    3 I see most of the condition with both account key and accrual also enter the transaction code. if system only picks 1, why need to maintain both?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Account Key enables the system to post amounts to certain types of Revenue account(Frieght & Custom)
    With the help of account key ,the accrual  key can post amounts to certain types of accruals accounts in the system.
    Check related condition type in M/06 & see the Cond.category linked.
    Also see the (account key / accrual  key) which will have the transaction event key and will store the Purchasing documents value in posting that links( which one linked so you have posting) in OBYC setting

  • 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
