Accounting Setup in XLA for Supplier Cost Adjustments

Hi All,
We are running PRC: Create Accounting process and it has the following error for Supplier Cost Adjustments.
“Subledger Accounting was unable to derive an accounting code combination using the account derivation rule Cost Clearing Account Rule owned by Oracle. Please review the account derivation rule and make sure it derives a valid accounting flexfield combination for the source values passed for the transaction.”
As per the functionality for supplier costs any one of the following setups is mandatory
• Specify the default supplier cost credit account for supplier cost adjustments in Oracle Projects implementation options for each operating unit.
(OR)
• Define a rule in Oracle Subledger Accounting to determine the supplier cost credit account.
This setup is required for the process PRC: Create Accounting to successfully create accounting for supplier cost adjustments. Oracle Projects displays a message asking you to validate the setup each time that you enable the Allow Adjustments option for a predefined transaction source for supplier costs.
We not want to use “the default supplier cost credit account for supplier cost adjustments in Oracle Projects implementation options”
We want to do the setup in XLA to derive the account, can you please guide us how to do the XLA setup to process the supplier cost adjustments?
Thanks

Hi
Supplier invoice debit an account XXXX. This should be a CIP account (construction in progress), which is an Asset type account in GL.
When you capitalize the project, the system is populating the mass addition 'clearing account' field with the account debited by Projects (in your case, by AP). This will be the XXXX account.
The Expense Account should be the account you intend to charge periodic depreciation costs.
The Asset Account should be the account you intend to charge the value (the cost) of the asset in GL balance sheet.
Both, expense and asset, accounts are derived from the asset category.
If you have not defined asset categories, the system will use the default accounts from the system implementation setup.
Usually when you create an asset in Projects, before capitalizing, you are expected to setup the asset category. Asset category derives accounting and depreciation method.

User Account Setup & Config Tips for Two Macs

Greetings,
Can someone please explain the importance of lowercase vs. uppercase letters and the use of spaces in the Mac OS when setting up user accounts? I'm sure there must be some UNIX, LDAP, or X.500 directory explanation out there given OS X's UNIX underpinnings.
The reason I ask, is that I have recently switched to the Mac OS from Windows, and there seems to be an emphasis on using lowercase letters and spaces in the Full Name, Account Name, and Home Directory Name when setting up your OS X user account. I have tried Googling this and I can find all kinds of articles on how to change these settings post OS install and the importance of keeping your account name and home directory name the same but nothing that explains why you should only use lowercase letters.
For example, in real life, I go by my middle name. So in the "Full Name" field in System Preferences -> Accounts I have entered my Middle and Last name with a single capital letter for each name a space in between the two.
Full Name looks like this: "Middle Last"
For the "Account Name", I have entered a nickname I have had for years that does not match or have anything to do with my legal name that I entered for the "Full Name". While the Mac OS prohibits you from entering spaces in this field, it does allow you to enter uppercase letters. The name I entered here is a two part name, and I have capitalized the first and second parts for easier reading.
Account Name looks like this: "NickName"
My Home Directory matches my Account Name above and looks like this in the Finder: "NickName"
I've also linked my MobileMe user name to this account and it looks like: "middle.last"
Question: Should I recreate my user account and get rid of the uppercase letters in the full name, account name, and home directory name?
Another question I have, would it be advisable to set up identical user accounts given that I have a iMac i7 in my office and a Mac Mini in my living room? I would be the only user for both machines.
I would like to set up my Mac Mini to be a central repository for all my music, iPhoto projects, and iMovie projects. I would like to share my iTunes music on the Mac Mini using the Home Sharing feature of iTunes. Eventually I want to set up MythTV on the MacMini and use it as a DVR.
I want my iMac i7 to store all my documents and pictures. I want to create and edit iPhoto & iMovie projects on my iMac, but store what I create on the Mac Mini. That way when people come over to visit, we can sit on the couch rather than gather around my desk in my 2nd bedroom.
Eventually I want to set up an external hard drive on the Mac Mini and use Time Machine on both computers to backup to the Mac Mini's external hard drive since I will leave the Mac Mini on 24x7.
Thank-you,
Derrick

Simply put there is nothing wrong with your name or account configuration. Although it is customary in Unix systems to use all lowercase for an account name, what you have setup is certainly acceptable. Passwords also can be a mix of lower and uppercase but should be limited to alphanumerics only.
As for the two machines you will find it much more convenient to have everything configured identically on both machines to avoid issues with file permissions.

Supplier Invoice Adjustments hitting AP Liability Account

Hi,
Can someone please help me to understand why some of project supplier inv cost adjustments hitting the AP liability account. The cost distribution line accounts look good. But the Create Accounting process debits the AP liability account. We haven't customnized any SLA accounting rules.
As per our Auto-accounting rules, it is not supposed to touch the Liability account. And it doesn't happen to all cost lines or all projects.
Appreciate any help to understand the flow of accouting for Supplier Invoice Adjustments
Thanks.

Hi Suresh,
With encumbrance accounting, you can track the amount to be spent in Payables that was encumbered in Purchasing. This might help get you the results you need.
Unfortunately, I cannot think of an option for you that would work in standard accrual accounting. In the current model, an accounting event is created only during validation, and accounting is driven off of the events that are created.

Outlook 2013 Auto Account Setup for Linked Mailbox Not working

We've created a linked mailbox, in Exchange 2013 (in domain1), for a user in another AD forest, domain2. We have the AutoDiscover service configured in the other AD forest as well. Our only issue now is trying to find a way to get the Outlook Auto Account
Setup to automagically configure a user's profile the first time Outlook 2013 is started. If we type in the user's email address and name and click Next, the profile is created successfully.
I spoke to Microsoft support who helped me confirm that AutoDiscovery was configured correctly in the other forest. Reading this information (
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124251.aspx ) on AutoDiscover, I found what may be the issue. It notes that
"If the Outlook client is joined to a domain, the user's domain account is used."
Since the linked mailbox is associated with domain1, Outlook looks like it cannot use the domain account from domain2. I wonder if there might be a registry hack to bypass this and force Outlook clients in domain2 to look at email addresses in domain1?
Orange County District Attorney

Hi,
According to your description, I noticed that “If we type in the user's email address and name and click Next, the profile is created successfully”. Do you mean the linked mailbox can be setup automatically when you fill in the Name and E-mail Address in
the Auto Account Setup page? For example:
If that is the case, the autodiscover service in Exchange side should be configured correctly and it is working for Outlook client automatically account setup.
If the account can’t be setup automatically when using autodiscover service, please
verify that the Master Account (Domain2\User1) has full access to the Linked Mailbox ([email protected]) as well as the smtp address using the cmdlets Get-Mailbox and Get-MailboxPermission in Exchange server:
Get-Mailbox [email protected] | fl PrimarySmtpAddress,*Type*,*Link*
Get-MailboxPermission [email protected] | fl

Post freight cost to a different a GL account during 411-K for consignment PO Process

We are planning to implement PO consignment for one of the client.
The scenario is, client pays the freight cost to the supplier in advance upon receipt of consignment stock .When consignment stock is moved to own stock (411k), during the movement of the stock we need to create two accounting entries one for the material cost and the other for freight cost such that the freight can be adjusted with advance paid freight cost. Freight cost can be settled manually with another PO but the requirement is moving average price of the material should include the cost of material and freight cost .
For an example if the material cost is $100(PB00) and freight cost is $10(FAR1 - 10%), during 411k it should create two entries one for material cost($100) and the other for freight cost($10) which can be adjusted manually.
We tried by adding freight condition (FRA1) in consignment info record along with PB00 –Gross price and in this case during 411k it is summing both the prices($110) and posting to one GL account and the same settles during MRKO but what we are looking for is how we can split this into $100 and $10 .
I know standard SAP does not support this this during 411k.
I want to know if there is any User exit, pricing procedure, routines, etc... Or any other way that can be used to achieve this requirement. Appreciate more detailed answer

Hi,
   As you know, currently the delivery cost are not supported in consignment and pipeline settlement. The system design is explained in the note: 208555 - MB11 Delivery costs for pipeline and consignment.
   If you want delivery cost in consignment, you have to go for development. There should be additional entry for delivery costs in RKWA table. I am not sure about the feasibility, but still would like to share the below points:
   For creating additional entry in the accounting document while doing MB1B / MB11, you may check the BADI AC_DOCUMENT.
   You may refer the note: 165647 - Documentation: Enhancement RMVKON00 (MM-IV) which explains some enhancements related to consignment settlement.

If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account, how can I setup individual notifications for each account. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work to be different than perso

If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account on my iPhone 4s, How can I setup individual notifications for each account? Fore example, if I get a work email, I want to hear a DING, DING....If I get a personal email, I want to hear a BEEP, BEEP. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work incoming email notification to be different than personal incoming notification. The only semi-workaround I've seen is just disable any notification for the Hotmail account, so only work emails would notify. But then I don't know when I get a personal email. Even the lowely Blackberry Torch 9800 has this feature..not iPhone 4s??
Thanks

Sorry you get only one notification sound for all email accounts. you can send a suggestion to apple here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

I am a teacher that uses the iPad in the classroom. I have an itunes account setup for my classroom without a credit card listed. Is there anyway for me to purchase apps to use in the classroom with a Purchase Order?

I am a teacher that uses the iPad in the classroom. I have an itunes account setup for my classroom without a credit card listed. Is there anyway for me to purchase apps to use in the classroom with a Purchase Order?

(Being sarcastic - its because only the US is big or important enough to warrant volume licensing....)
At this time, until Apple decides to release volume licensing structures outside of the US the only solution would be to use your purchase orders with a company that sells the iTunes Vouchers and redeem those.
However - even then its hard to stay on the right side of the EULA when the terms are all couched in reference to "Personal Use"
I have spoken to some developers in the past about educational discounts, or even support for proxies, and wasn't really impressed with their answers. But hey - even Adobe has trouble with proxies and consistent approaches - we can't expect independent developers to be able to match the same capabilities...

No accounting document created for distributed cost center and asset

Hi experts,
Why there is no accounting document created during GR for distibuted cost center and asset?
Thanks

Sorry guys, there's nothing to do with the config of the account assignment. The postings are ok for single cost center or single asset. SAP system message (info messsage) " Goods receipt for distributed cost center will be non valuated" are given when you are trying to unticked the GR non valuated.
If someone could explain what is the logic behind that behavior.
Thanks again.

Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B but working for MIGO_GI

Hi All
Do you know why this behaviour different for subtitution written under cost center accounting.
We have written substitution using coding block table. Logic of substitution is in case of any GL maintained in a set is being used for posting , then we will replace the cost center with profit center vlaue. Reason being we have same naming convention for Cost center and Profit center.
Thanks
Sonia

Hi,
MB1B is t-code for stock transfer posting.
Stock transfer posting generate FI document using balance sheet account, not P&L account.
Because you don’t create cost elements using balance sheet accounts related to stock, I think that Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B is right.

STO Accounting entries for indirect costs

Hi experts,
I have following scenario:
Plant A
Quantity Update
Plant B
Value/Quantity Updatae
Then I create STO from plant A to Plant B. Include Indirect costs. No accounting entries is getting generated at goods issues nor goods receipt. System allows me to introduce invoice for indirect costs through miro. However, it doesn't propose the values as it happens in purchase orders.
Is there anything in custominzing I am missing.
Thanks.

But that's not the standard behaviour (i know it's strange, I made that error myself in the past).
Remove the K, and the system will make the posting to the cost element defined in OKB9.

Suggestions required for transferring cost from GL account to a Project

Hi,
We have a requirement where we want to transfer cost captured in GL to PA in a specific project.
For example:
Incurred a misc cost 100 (outside project) and posted to GL (a/c 600010)
Dr 60010, Cr 120010
Later, realized this should be absorbed as a project cost (a/c 220010)
We need some mechanism to capture cost in project ABC such that Dr 220010, Cr 600010
If we use Web ADI to upload 'Costed' transactions: Dr 220010 Cr <NULL> (GL Transfer Status - Accepted)
If we use Web ADI to upload 'Accounted' transaction: Dr 220010 Cr 600010 (GL Transfer Status - Received), but in this case the entry is no passed to GL, to nullify the a/c balance in 600010
Appreciate suggestions from experts, to address the requirement.
Ashutosh

Hi
You can reverse the transaction posted in GL.
Then load the amount to Projects, as costed, not accounted EI.
When distributing the cost in PA it will generate the right accounting, and you could interface it to GL.

How the account determination takes place for cost center

Hai
Can any one explain me in detail (as i am new to this topic) how the account determination takes place when i raise a P.O for cost centre and do G.R for the same? If possible pl send me links also related the above.
Thanks

Hi,
Once u have given account assignment category 'K', then system will pick automatically G/L account from the OBYC settings for the combination of Valuation modification code, account modifier (VBR) & Valuation class.
From the OME9 transcation, system will pick transcation key for the respective account assignment category.
For the account assignment category 'K', account modifier is 'VBR'.
Here masterial master record (MMR) is optional. If you are giving MMR in the PO, system will pick valuation class from the MMR.
If MMR is not giving, then system will pick valuation class from the transcation OMQW. Here you need to maintain valuation class aganist material group, which is u r giving in the PO. ( This is optional)
In the OBYC transcation, for the transcation key GBB you need to maintain G/L account for the combination Valuation modification code, account modifier (VBR) & Valuation class.
Also maintain one more entry in the transcation key GBB, maintain G/L account for the combination Valuation modification code, account modifier (VBR) & Valuation class field is blank.
Once you have given account assignment category 'K' in the PO, system will pick G/L for the combination Valuation modification code, account modifier (VBR) & Valuation class. This is happening before giving the cost centre.
If you are not maintaining MMR in the PO and not maintaining valuation class aganist material group in the transcation OMQW, the system will pick G/L account for the combination of Valuation modification code, account modifier (VBR) & Valuation class field is blank.
So in your case, check valuation class aganist material group in the transcation OMQW and maintain G/L in the OBYC for the respective combination. If valuation class is not maintained aganist material group in the transcation OMQW and maintain one more entry in the OBYC with the blank valuation calss field.
