Account posting at billing

Hello Folks,
Am I right to say that Profit centre accounting document is posted when billing doc is posted in addition to FI accounting docs and CO-PA docs? Or is Profit center accounting doc classified as CO-PA docs?
I know that FI accounting docs are posted like AR and Sales Deductions.
Also, please finalise for me that when billing doc is released to FI, CO-PA gets the postings as a further posting. May I know how this works? Is it posted parallel with FI postings?
regards
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
In ecc 6 there is no separate profit center document, but copa doc is separate. Profit center is now a field in Accounting document. copa doc is based on charecteristics assignment with sales.
Before ecc 6 , there use to be a separate doc for fi, profit center, copa.This was using same derivation logic for copa as explained above.
When u release document to accounting at the same time copa doc is created. If it has giving u error contact u r co consultant.

Hi to all,
Please make sure the term. How GL account posting when billing document saved or it release to accounting?

Hi,
If your question is how the GLs are picked up while the billing doc is released to accounting, then-

Account posting in Billing

Hi,
   How Accounting doc. type triggers with ref. to billing doc. type
   Where we are doing this settings.
   Ex. for F2 billing type triggers RV Accounting doc. type
With Regards
RS Mani

Automatic trigger of posting document is enabled in VOFA tcode for the billing document type. Here you have another field called "Document type" in the General control area. This represents the accounting document type.
Also check in OBA7, here the document type explains whether it is triggered for customers, vendors, assets etc
Hope this helps.

Cost Center Error Message in Posting a Billing Document to Accounting

Hi Experts,
I am in process of testing my form enhancement for Billing Documents especially Debit Note and Credit Notes. However, when I post my Billing Documents in VF02, this status message appears:
"Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account 2100 855020".
Now I already checked the configuration in FS00, VKOA and we want the cost center field filled-up in the process but automatically. Do I missed some of my configuration to maintain also the Cost Center? What transaction code should I check and maintain the Cost Center for this scenario.
Thanks a lot for your answers.

Here is the Entire Error Message:
Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account 2100 855020
Message no. F5808
Diagnosis
The value for field "Cost Ctr" in the interface to Financial Accounting is an initial value but you are required to make an entry in the field selection for G/L account "855020" in company code "2100" linked to the field selection for posting key "50".
System Response
Error
Procedure
It might be an error in the configuration of the G/L account field selection. The initial application, used to call up the interface must otherwise define a value for field "Cost Ctr". If this is the case, contact the consultant responsible for the application used to call up the interface or get in contact with SAP directly.

Dont want account posting while return

Dear All
I am facing one problem in one scenario.
In return case i dont want one condition type to post. i dont want post one condition in that particular account. i am using the same pricing procedure for sales cycle and return sales. and that condition should be post in sales ( now it is posting correctly ) but i dont want want to post in when i create return billing document. can u please tell me how should i handle it in pricing procedure,i cant find anything in condition type about account posting. but i think i can handle in pricing procedure by using new requirement . and the logic should be while creating return order the value of that condition should pickup zero. am i right ? please give me ur guidance
Thanks and Regards
Bhushan Kolte

Hi,
Based on your requirement, two options are available.
1. Write a new requirement ( transaction VOFM) and assign tit to condition type with a ABAP code if doc type is return the condition gets disqualified.
2. Alternatively you can write new condition base value and make it to zero when dco type is return ( transaction VOFM) and assign it to the condition in pricing procedure

Account posting keys involves for process of third party order

hi
pls tell me the process of third party order and whos account stock will be debited and tell me the account posting keys involves in this process and how it operates

THIRD PARTY SCENARIO
In third-party order processing, your company does not deliver the items requested by a customer. Instead, you pass the order along to a third-party vendor who then ships the goods directly to the customer and bills you. A sales order may consist partly or wholly of third-party items. Occasionally, you may need to let a vendor deliver items you would normally deliver yourself.
Process Flow
The processing of third-party orders is controlled via material types. Material types define whether a material is produced only internally, can be ordered only from third-party vendors, or whether both are possible. For example, a material that is defined as a trading good can only be ordered from a third-party vendor. However, if you manufacture your own finished products, you may also want, from time to time, to be able to order the same type of product from other vendors.
Processing Third-Party Orders in Sales
Third-party items can be created automatically by the system, depending on how your system is set. However, you can also change a standard item to a third-party item during sales processing manually.
Automatic third-party order processing
If a material is always delivered from one or more third-party vendors, you can specify in the material master that the material is a third-party item. During subsequent sales order processing, the system automatically determines the appropriate item category for a third-party item: TAS. To specify a material as a third-party item, enter BANS in the Item category group field in the Sales 2 screen of the material master record.
Manual third-party order processing
In the case of a material that you normally deliver yourself but occasionally need to order from a third-party vendor, you can overwrite the item category during sales order processing. For a material that you normally deliver yourself, you specify the item category group NORM in the material master.
If, as an exception, you use a third-party material, change the entry TAN to TAS in the ItCa field when processing the sales document. The item is then processed as third-party item.
If address data for the ship-to party is changed in the sales order in third-party business transactions, the changed data will automatically be passed on to purchase requisition and also to the purchase order ,if one already exists. In the purchase order, you can display the address data for the ship-to party in the attributes for the item.
You can only change the address data for the ship-to party in the sales order for third-party business transactions, and not in the purchase order.
Processing Third-Party Orders in Purchasing
When you save a sales order that contains one or more third-party items, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition in Purchasing. Each third-party item in a sales order automatically generates a corresponding purchase requisition item. During creation of the requisition, the system automatically determines a vendor for each requisition item. If a sales order item has more than one schedule line, the system creates a purchase requisition item for each schedule line.
Purchase orders are created from purchase requisitions in the usual way. For more information about creating purchase orders, see the Purchasing documentation. During creation of the purchase order, the system automatically copies the delivery address of your customer from the corresponding sales order. In a sales order, you can enter purchase order texts for each third-party item. When you create the corresponding purchase order, the texts are automatically copied into the purchase order. The number of the purchase order appears in the document flow information of the sales order.
All changes made in the purchase order are automatically made in the sales order as well. For example, if the vendor confirms quantities and delivery dates different from those you request and enters them in the purchase order, the revised data is automatically copied into the sales order
You process third-party items by creating a normal sales order. In overview for the order, you can then overwrite the default item category (TAN in the standard system) with the special item category for third-party items: TAS
Billing Third-Party Orders
If relevance for billing indicator for the item category has been set to B (relevant for order-related billing on the basis of the order quantity) in Customizing, the system includes the order in the billing due list immediately. If, however, the indicator has been set to F (relevant to order-related billing on the basis of the invoice quantity), the system does not include the order in the billing due list until an invoice from the vendor has been received and processed by the purchasing department. In the standard system, item category TAS (third-party order processing) has been given billing-relevance indicator F.
In the first case, the third-party order is considered to be completely billed only when the invoiced quantity equals the order quantity of the sales order item. In the second case, each time a vendor invoice is received, a customer invoice is created for the quantity in the vendor invoice and the order is considered to be fully invoiced until the next vendor invoice is received.
If you have activated billing-relevance indicator F for item categories in Customizing, billing can refer to the goods receipt quantity instead of the incoming invoice quantity.
You can control whether the invoice receipt quantity or the quantity of goods received is relevant for billing in Customizing for copying control for billing at item level.
FOR YOUR PROCESS Individual Purchase Orders WELL GIVE THE RIGHT SOLUTION
Individual purchase orders are used when your customer orders goods from you that are not in stock and must be ordered from one or more external vendors.
Process Flow
During sales order entry, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition item. The purchasing department creates a purchase order based on the requisition and the vendor ships the goods directly to you (unlike third party order processing, where the vendor ships directly to your customer). You then ship the goods to your customer. While the goods are part of your inventory, you manage them as part of the sales order stock. Sales order stock consists of stock that is assigned to specific sales orders and cannot be used for other purposes.
Goods receipt will be posted when ever the vendor ships the goods to our customer.
We will do this transaction in SAP using MIGO.
Invoice receipt is done when the Vendor sends us the invoice.. ( I.e Billing ).
It can be done using MIRO.
THe above two steps are standard and manual. There are many other ways that the actual process can happen. If the client follows EDI standards then the Goods receipt and Invoice receipt can be done through IDOCs automatically.
Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales
Customize the third party sales in summary:
Prerequisites for 3rd party sales,
Purchasing org,
purchasing group,
assign the Purchase org to company code
assign Purchase org to plant,
should not maintain the stock in material, it should be trading goods,
1. Create Vendor XK01
2. Create Material Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".
3. Assign Item Category TAS to Order type that you are going to use.
4. A sale order is created and when saved a PR is generated at the background
5. With reference to SO a PO is created (ME21N). The company raises PO to the vendor.
6. Vendor delivers the goods and raises bill to company. MM receives the invoice MIRO
7. Goods receipt MIGO
8. Goods issue
9. The item cat TAS or Schedule line cat CS is not relevant for delivery which is evident from the config and, therefore, there is no delivery process attached in the whole process of Third party sales.

Third party order processing is as follows:
Assume three companies X, Y and Z
X - The company,
y - The customer
Z - Vendor
When ever X gets a PO from Y to supply some goods, X has an option of either manufacturing those goods or procuring those goods.
If he is procuring the goods, there are two methods that are generally followed:
Method 1) After receiving the PO from Y, X creates a sales order against Y.
Now at the same time he also creates a PO to a vendor Z to produce the goods
Z produces the goods and supplies to X
X receives the goods from Z
Then X delivers the same goods to Y.
After that X invoices Y and Z invoices X.
Note : Here there is no direct/ Indirect relation between Z and Y.
This process is known as Trading Process. and the Material here is created with Material type HAWA.
The other method is a Third party order processing method:
Here the glaring difference is that instead of Z supplying the material to X and X in turn supplying the same material to Y.
X authorizes Z to supply the material to Y on his behalf and notify him once the delivery is complete.
Now Z supplies the material to Y and acknowledges the same to X.
Z will send a copy of delivery acknowledgement and invoice to X.
After receiving the delivery confirmation and invoice from Z, X has to verify the invoice and this process is known as invoice verification and is done in SAP through Tcode MIRO.
The next step for X is to create an invoice and submit to Y
Only after the invoice verification document is posted then only X can create an invoice for Y.
This is the business flow that is followed for third party order configuration.
There are few steps that have to be configured to enable the system to function as mentioned above.
Step1)
If you are always following a third party process for a material then you have to create the material using item category group BANS.
The procurement type should be marked as External procurement (F) in MRP 2 view of the material master record.
if you are not always allowing third party order processing then u can create a material master record with item category group as NORM and the procurement type should be marked as ( X) meaning both types of procurement ( in house manufacturing and external procurement).
Step 2)
the item category in the order should be manually changed as TAS.
For that you need to configure the item category determination
Order type + item cat Group + Usage + High level = Item cat + Manual item cat
OR + NORM + + = TAN + TAS
OR + BANS + + = TAS
Step 3)
make sure that during the item category configuration for TAS you need to mark relevant for billing indicator as F
step 4)
The schedule line category for this type should be CS.
make sure that you mark subsequent type as NB - purchase requisition in this schedule line category as this will trigger the purchase requisition order immediately after the creation of the sales order and the PO to vendor is created against this purchase requisition.

Account Posting Error

Hi,
On posting my billing document to accounting I am getting an ABAP runtime error "GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED_RANGE". As I understood it, it was to do with number range assigment for accounting document. But I have already assigned number ranges to my a/c docs(1, 14 and 49 -as I was asked by system). Moreover, with the same configuration I used to post the billing to accounting successfully. What could have gone wrong? Any suggestions please? Thanks in advance.

Dear Narendra
This is bcoz Account Assignment Group was not flowing in billing and hence the error. First check in customer master whether you have maintained the Account Assignment Group and if so, check in billing document at header level.
thanks

Header price into revenue account posting

Hello,
We have a condition type with calculation type is set as FIXED VALUE and relevant for header condition. When we insert the price in document header for header condition type, system automatically replicates/split the price into line item wise and during revenue account postings, system post the value for each line item instead the header price, example - PRICE IN BILLING DOCUMENT
Header Price: Stamp Value: 100 USD
Line Itme 1:
Quantity: 1
Basic Price : 200
Stamp Value : 50
Line Item 2:
Quantity: 1
Basic Price : 200
Stamp Value : 50
Revenue Account Posting -
Customer 500 Dr
Revenue Line 1: 200 Cr
Stamp value: 50 Cr
Revenue Line 2: 200 Cr
Stamp Value: 50 Cr
However we need the value in revenue account posting as below -
Customer 500 Dr
Stamp value: 100 Cr
Revenue Line 1: 200 Cr
Revenue Line 2: 200 Cr
Please suggest
Best Regards,
Goutham

Hello Goutham,
if I understood well your requirement:
2 billing items with 2 materials, every item has Price condition and Stamp value condition.
You want in FI document the 2 Price conditions separated, creating 2 FI lines.
Whilst the 2 Stamp conditions joined in 1 FI line.
In the standard, SD passes to FI one line for every condition of every item (+ customer line).
Then in FI side the lines are summairzed, or not, depending on setting in OBCY.
If in OBCY there is only the line '' '' then system does not summarize the lines with different materials.
So in the standard there is not a solution for your requirement (as both Price line and Stamp value line have material).
The lonely possibility is to clear the material in the lines referred to Stamp value condition, and leave the material in the others.
In this way only the Stamp value lines will be summarized.
This can be done by one of userexits mentioned in note [301077|https://bosap-support.wdf.sap.corp/sap/support/notes/301077].
Consider theis would be a modification, and so it is not supported by SAP.
Best regards,
Ivano.

how can i use my account without the billing info, as i do not have a credit card. and my shipping and billing info is under US. i'm in singapore. how do i change this?

If you are just visiting Singapore, then leave the account as it is. If you have moved there, then view your account using the iTunes app on a Mac or PC and change the country/region to your current location and address. If you do not have a bank card, you can fund your account using iTunes gift cards if available in Singapore.

How to get general account for a billing document ( BSEG) ?

Hello,
For a billing document to a client , We need to get the general account for each item of the invoice . We based on the field XBLNR of table VBRK to select a document from BKPF with condition : VBRK-XBLNR = BKPF-vbeln . If yes we will get from table BSEG for bseg-vbeln = bkpf-vbeln and bseg-posnr = vbrk-posnr . then get HKONT.
But as you know BSEG is a cluster table, Select directly from this table is extremly long and seems impossible in our case. Could you please show me the way to do this ?
Our main purpose is to get HKONT ( General account ) for a billing document .
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Hoa Binh Xanh,
Why don't you look into tables BSAD and BSID (Transperant Tables) rather directly hitting BSEG ( Cluster Table)
Pass VBELN (Billing Document) in above two tables and get the doucment numbers and then if you need further info hit BSEG with the data you got from BSAD and BSID
OR else Pass KOART = 'D' while selecting data from BSEG it will help in improving performance
Hope it will solve your problem..
Thanks & Regards
