Account / Transaction key for Services

Dear Sappers,
I am maintaining a condition for services. IMG MM - External Services Management -> Maintain Condition for services . Here i have created condition type and maintained in conditions: Schemas for services. But i cannot create Account key / Transaction key here. Can anyone guide me where i can create account / transaction key for external service management.
Account / Transaction key can be maintained for normal PO conditions in IMG MM -> Purchasing -> Conditions -> Price Determination but those account keys are not appearing in External Service Management calculation schema for services.
Thanks.
Shahzad Shakoor

Using SM30 V_T687 transaction key is maintained and it is accepted in Service Management caculation schem but now i have to assign GL accoutn to it.
Kindly guide me where i can assign GL account for this newly created transaction key as this one is not appearing in OBYC.
Thanks a lot.

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,

Purchasing - A/P Transaction Processing for Services and Non Inventory Item

On of the main areas of concern that businesses have is in the area of Purchasing, Goods Receipts and AP Invoices Processing - There is a requirement that businesses have widely referred to as 3-way matching.
While SAP Business One has this functionality covered quiet well via the following, there is still some need for enhancements so that the application can correctly reflect the AP Accruals:
- Purchase Order processing with Approval Process (if configured)
- Ability to perform Goods Receipts for Services.
- Matching of AP Invoices to Goods Receipts with AP Invoice Approval Process (if configured)
The above transactions serve the 3-way matching quiet well for all purchases however when it comes to accuring for Services that have been provided, the application does not do this. The Goods Receipt transaction processing to acknowledge the service delivery is allowed however the related posting to the allocation account is missing.
The process that is followed by the application is same for Items that have not Inventory Items in Item Master.
As a result of the above, the business have to manually work out what the Accurals for services provided but not invoiced should be.
With little enhancement to the product this shortfall could very easily be overcome.

Hi,
Once there are transactions, we cannot make existing Inventory type item to Non Inventory type item.
Check SAP note:937297 which states as follows :
Symptom
Changing the status of the Inventory Item checkbox (in Item Master Data) for items with inventory transactions and documents, might lead to inaccuracies in the calculations of inventory value.
Other terms
Inventory Item, Non-inventory Item, Item Master Data, Continuous Stock, Perpetual Inventory, Inventory Valuation, 2004, 2005, 2005 A SP01
Reason and Prerequisites
Consulting Note
Solution
The status of an item (Inventory Item/Non-Inventory item as selected in the Inventory Item checkbox in the Item Master Data window), cannot be changed once an A/P, A/R, or Inventory document is posted for the item.
Regards,
Jitin Chawla

Account modification key for movement type 643

Hello Experts,
I am reaching out to you today as I am in need of some info on Account assignment for Goods issue process. I looked at transaction OMWN or OMJJ for movement type based settings. I am running a business process ' Intercompany stock transfer order'. Goods issue movement on delivery reads 643(Goods issue for cross company), which is picking 'Account modification key' VAX.
My requirement was how do I force system to pick VAY for 643 without overwriting VAX with VAY in OMWN transaction. Also there are several possibilities listed out for movement 643 alone. Appreciate if you could briefly tell me how system determines other parameters such as 1) Special stock indicator 2)Consumption posting 3) Value string & 4)Counter to determine 'Account modifier' in the customizing table V_156X_KO for Intercompany movement type 643.
Additional info: Trigger is Stock tarnsfer order type NB. Subsequent process is VL10B for Delivery creation using type NLCC and Intercompany invoice(IV) for shipping the goods to ordering company code. Then in the receiving company MIGO or goods receipt with reference to outbound delivery and fianlly MIRO or Invoice verification.
Regards
SG

Valuation Structure
Data on a material is valuated using the following structure:
Valuation area
Valuation class
Valuation category
Valuation type
Material type
Movement type
Valuation Area
Organizational level at which material valuation is carried out. You can define a valuation area as
follows:
Valuation area = company code
All stocks of a particular material in this company code are valuated together.
Valuation area = one plant
The stocks of a particular material in this individual plant are valuated together. Stocks in
other plants are not included in this valuation area.
You define in Customizing the level at which valuation should take place.
Valuation Class
You group together different materials with similar properties into valuation classes so that you
do not have to manage a separate stock account for every material.
The following table contains examples of possible valuation classes:
Valuation class Description
3001 Colors
3002 Paints
3030 Operating supplies
3100 Trading goods
Which valuation class a material can be assigned to depends on the material type. You can
define the following assignments in Customizing:
All materials with the same material type are assigned to just one valuation class.
Different materials with the same material type are assigned to different valuation classes.
Materials with different material types are assigned to a single valuation class.
MM - Material Price Change (MM-IV-MP) SAP AG
Valuation Structure
10 April 2001
A material is assigned to a valuation class in the material master record. The system checks
whether the material type allows the material to be assigned to the valuation class specified.
The system refers to the valuation class of a material to determine which stock account to post to
when a posting is made for this material.
Valuation Category
Criterion according to which split valuation is carried out:
Procurement
You can valuate a material differently depending on whether it is manufactured in-house
or procured externally.
Origin
You can valuate a material differently depending on where it comes from (such as home
or abroad).
Status
You can valuate a material differently depending on its status (such as new, used,
repaired).
You define the valuation categories in Customizing. A material is assigned a valuation category
in the material master record.
Valuation Type
The valuation type specifies the individual characteristic of the valuation category, such as
internal or external, in the case of Procurement. Within the valuation category Origin, you can
define the different countries as the valuation types. You define valuation types in Customizing.
You first determine all the valid valuation types for a valuation category.
You define in the material master record which valuation types are allowed for a particular
material. For every material subject to split valuation, you must enter all the valuation types
allowed in the material master record.
Material Type
You assign every material to a material type when you create it. Examples of material types in
the standard system include raw materials, operating supplies and finished products.
The material type controls the properties of a material and which data must be maintained for the
material. The following control features are important for valuation:
Is the material managed by quantity?
Is the material managed by value?
Which price control type may be used for the material?
Which valuation class can the material be assigned to?
The system administrator can create or change material types in Customizing.
Movement Type
