Accrual and Posting to a Account

Is it possible for a condition record to both Post & Accrue as system allows me to put account key and accrual key?
If I want to use accrual key - should i define the condition record as an accrual in control2 portion of condition record configuration? Is it not possible to use a condition record that is not having accrual key to post an accrual?
Can some one give me a bit more elaboration on accrual, account key?
Appreciate your help.

Hi
Accrual Key is used only for Rebate conditions. For Rebate conditions, you need to specify Account key as well as Accrual Key in the Pricing Procedure.
For Rebate conditions, you need to specify the "Account Key", which specify in which G/L account, the discount amount will be posted.
This Rebate discount, we have to pay back to the customer when the Rebate will be settled and till that time, it is accrued with us.
So, it is posted to a special G/L account meant for accrual only.
For Rebate conditions, Accrual Key is specified in the Pricing Procedure, from which system identifies the appropriate account and posts the accrual amounts.
The accrual rate and the Rebate rate both are specified in the Condition record created within the Rebate agreement.
If the Accrual rate is not specified in the condition record, then system does not post any accrual to Accounting.
When Rebate is settled, this accrual amount is apid back to the Rebate receipient and that is how Rebate is settled.

SAP HR /PY Accrual and posting Period

Hello SAP Experts,
The posting date of our Payroll is always 'Plus 2'. For example, if the fortnightly pay period ends on 29/5/2011, the posting date and the EFT release date will be 31/5/2011 - this pay period should therefore be included in May accounting.
However, our software vendor is telling us that where the posting date (i.e. pay period end plus 2) falls on the end of month date, that the system cannot recognize this pay period in May accounting. Rather this period will now be included in June accounting, and therefore, the system will calculate and post accruals in the previous pay period of 15/5/2011 i.e. 10 day accrual.
Is there a way that SAP can be configured to allow period 29/5/2011 to be included in May accounting and for No accruals to be calculated in the previous pay period?

EBS upload didnot clear line items and post to Main Account

Hi
We are on ECC 6.0. Our user as usual uploaded the EBS (she was doing this for last 6 months). Every time all line items from the Check Issued Clearing account used to get cleared and posted to Main Bank Account and the checks were encashed.
August EBS was loaded in Sept 3rd. This time all 2000 odd checks are still lying in Check Issued Clearing account itself. Transfer to Main Bank account didnot take place.
Due to this the Checks are not updated with the Encashed Date and all checks are still shown as Outstanding.
What could be the reason for this?
Thanks
Vijay

There is no change to the customization and the bank file format (BAI) also remains the same.
Edited by: vijayakumar aluru on Sep 15, 2009 1:27 AM
Is there a way I can delete the bank statement upload buffer and reload the EBS?

i hope your issue would have got resolved, but below is my take on the issue.
please check the external transaction code given by bank in the bank statement. I believe the bank would have changed the external trannsaction code that is the reason, FF-5 could not clear your check items, as system was looking for the external transaction code and internal postings rules, which probably were not matching.

Difference Between GRIR is split to two accounts and posted to two accounts

User did an Invoice Verification (MIRO)
User found that the accounting entries is very unusual as the difference between the Invoice $ amount and the GRIR amount was posted to Stock accounts 20105000 and expenses account 87201000.
We need to know what should be the normal posting if there is any difference between invoice amount and GRIR.
And for this case, why and based on what the system split the difference to two accounts.

It all depends upon the price indicator of the material in the Accounting 1 view of the the material master. The following results would happen:
1. Material maintained with Price indicator "S"(Standard Price)-In this scenario, the difference between the GRIR & Invoice will flow to Purchase Price Variance account(Expense) & NOTHING would flow to Inventory account.
Note: However, the incidental expenses like freight etc could be configured to flow in specific assigned GL accounts.
2. Material maintained with Price indicator "V"(Moving average price)-In this scenario, the difference between the GRIR & Invoice will flow to the Inventory Account.
Note: The above mentioned examples are SAP standard way unless you have configured/mapped different GL.
Hope this helps.

How to change Posting Date in Accounting Document

Dear All,
Query: While Releasing Invoice Document (BL) for Account Posting, How can we change the Posting Date for Accounting Document (AB)?
Explanation: User has created one Invoice on 26.02.2009. that time, Because of Missing Foreign Trade Data, No Accounting Document had been generated. Now, if today i.e. 10.03.2009, I maintain Foreign Trade Data and Release Invoice for Account Posting, The Accounting Document will be posted as on Today's Date, i.e. 10.03.2009.
User's requirement is the Invoice Document (BL) Date and Accounting Document (AB) Date must be same, i.e. 26.02.2009.
It shouldn't be like Invoice is getting generated on 26.02.2009 and Accounting Document is getting posted on 10.03.2009.
Thanks in Advance.
Amit

Dear Michael,
It was a User confusion with Creation Date of Invoice, Billing Date of Invoice and Posting date of Accounting Document.
User had created Invoice on some 01.03.2009 but Kept Billing Date as 26.02.2009. So, while released Accounting Doc. on 10.03.2009 (Releasing date and not Posting Date), It gets Posted on 26.02.2009, only, and not on 10.03.2009.
The whole confusion was:
When User refers Document Flow (for Invoice in VF02), System shows Invoice Date as 01.03.2009, against Accounting Posting Date 26.02.2009.
Whereas,
When I showed FBL5N to user, BL Document and AB Document both get posted on 26.02.2009 only.
Its Clear now.
Best Regards,
Amit

IN GENERAL SETTINGS

Hi
If you are using ECC 6.0 and above, please use TCode TPM44 for Accrual/Deferal, in older versions the Tcode is TBB4. Please provide the error message which you are getting while running the transaction with TPM44.
Also, the configuration have been moved to single place in ECC6. Please check above settings in your system.

Accrual and account keys in pricing schema

Hi,
1.Can anyone explain the difference between accrual and account key ?
2.Whether for freight condition type (FRA1) , mandatorily we should put Accrual as FR1 and account key as FRE.?
3.Suppose I have customs also and I want to put the cost of both (custom and freight ) in one account , then whether I can put the account key FRE for both condition type or accrual I should put same ?
pls explain.
regards,

1.Can anyone explain the difference between accrual and account key ?
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.
With the aid of the account key, the system can post amounts to certain
types of accruals accounts. For example, rebate accruals which are
calculated from pricing conditions can be posted to the corresponding
account for rebate accruals.
2.Whether for freight condition type (FRA1) , mandatorily we should put Accrual as FR1 and account key as FRE.?
Yes you have to have the both the key to for that but you can defin your own also...the reason you have to have that because with the accrual you can post the freight to particular account
3.Suppose I have customs also and I want to put the cost of both (custom and freight ) in one account , then whether I can put the account key FRE for both condition type or accrual I should put same ?
in this case use same account and accrual key.
If you dont define the condition as accrual then the tax is applicable on it and you can't post to particular account

제품 : MFG_PO
작성날짜 : 2004-02-11
PO ACCRUALS AND ACCOUNTING에 관해 자주하는 질문과 답변
==========================================
PURPOSE
PO를 생성하고 Receipt를 하는 과정에서 Accruals Accounting이 발생하게
되나 이 Accruals Accounting의 의미를 정확히 모르는 경우가 많다.
이 note를 통해 Accruals Accounting의 의미와 관련 Setup,Report 등을
알 수 있다.
Explanation
1.'Accrue On Receipt'과'Accrue at Period End'의 차이점은 무엇인가?
'Accrue On Receipt' 의미는 receipt 저장시 accrual trasnactions이 즉시
기록되면서 general ledger interface(GL_INTERFACE) table로 보내진다.
이것은 'online' accruals라고도 알려져 있다.
'Accrue at Period End'의 의미는 receipt 저장시 accrual transactions이
즉시 기록되지 않으며 gederal ledger로 보내지지도 않는다. 대신 accounting
entries는 월말에 'Receipt Accruals - Period-End' process를 실행에 의해
generate되며 GL로 이때 보내지게 된다.
Destination Type이 'Inventory and Outside Processing'이 모든 Items은
'accrue on receipt' option을 가지며, destination type이 'expense'인
items은 'accrue on receipt'이나 'accrue at period end' options 둘 다를
가질 수 있다.
Period-end accrual과 online accruals을 조회시 이용할 수 있는 report는?
Period-end accruals: The Uninvoiced Receipts Report
Online accruals: The Accrual Rebuild Reconciliation Report.
이 online accruals transacion은 Uninvoiced Receipts
Report parameter 'include online accruals' 값을
'Yes'로 check하여 실행하면 Uninvoiced Receipts에 포함 될
수도 있다.
3.Receipt 입력후 receipt accruals이 실행되거나 period-end process를 실행
시킨후에도 새로운 journal이 GL에서 보이지 않는경우가 있다.이런 경우
Transaction의 자동으로 GL에 나타나야 하지 않을까?
PO에서 발생한 Transaction은 오직 GL_INTERFACE table로만 보내진다.
Journal을 생성하거나 GL에서 이를 보기 위해서는 GL에서 Journal Import
Concurrent가 수행되고,record가 성공적으로 GL로 import 되었음을 확인해야
한다.
4.GL에 있는 각각의 Journal이 Period-end accrual인지 On receipt accrual
인지 어떻게 알 수 있을까?
Period-end나 online accrual entries 모두 같은 GL batch안에 포함된다.
하지만 Period-end process에 의해 생성된 Journals은 'Accrual category를
갖게 되며, Online accrual에 의해 생성된 Journals은 'Receiving' caterogry
를 갖게 된다.
다음은 도움을 위해 지원되는 technical table-level 정보이다.
Table: GL_INTERFACE
Column : USER_JE_SOURCE_NAME = Purchasing
Column : USER_JE_CATEGORY_NAME = Accrual (for period-end accruals)
USER_JE_CATEGORY_NAME = Receiving (for online accruals)
Table: GL_JE_HEADERS
Column : JE_SOURCE = Purchasing
JE_CATEGORY = Accrual (for period-end accruals)
JE_CATEGORY = Receiving (for online accruals)
5.PO shipment를 received 하고 이 PO를 cancel하였음에도 Uninvoiced
Receipts report에서 볼 수 있고 매달 Period-end process에 의해 accrue도
된다.Cancel을 했음에도 왜 이런 현상이 발생하는가?
PO가 header,line,shipment level로 cancel 할 때, 오직 unrereceived 수량만
실제로 cancel된다. Cancellation은 이미 received 된 수량에 대해서는 영향
을 주지 않으며,Obligation은 여전히 이 receipt에 남아있다.
만약 received 수량과 invoived(billed)된 수량이 같거나 혹은 PO shipment에
대해 어떤 receipt도 입력되지 않았다면, cancellation은 Shipment의
Canceled flag를 'Yes'로 set하고 Closure Status를 'Closed'로 set 한다.
이런 경우, 아무런 accrual transaction도 generate 되지 않는다.
만약 received 수량과 invoiced된 수량이 같지 않으면,cancellation은
Shipment의 Cancelled flag를 'Yes'로 set하지만 Closure Status는 현재의
Status로 남겨둔다.(not 'Closed')
Received 수량과 Invoiced 수량과의 차이는 Uninvoiced Receipts report에
나타나며,이는 invoice가 전체 received 수량에 match 되거나 received
item이 Supplier에게 return 되기 전까지 각 달마다 accrue가 지속적으로
될 것이다.

What is GL account, difference bet. Doc.date and posting date, etc.

Hello Experts,
Currently I am supporting reports/programs for FI module. Can anybody please help
me or give me walkthrough on what are the terms like posting key, document date,
posting date, type, account, etc. I am currently modifying a report which posts in
transaction F-02. Any tips and guides will be highly appreciated. Thanks guys and take care!

Hi,
GL Account: This field contains the number of the G/L account to which the transaction figures are updated.we use One gl account for Salaries in an Orgn, and for expenses one GL like that.
Document Date: The document date is the date on which the original document was issued.
Posting date:Date which is used when entering the document in Financial Accounting or Controlling
The fiscal year and the period for which an update of the accounts specified in the document or cost elements is made, are derived from the posting date.
When entering documents, the system checks whether the posting date entered is allowed by means of the posting period permitted.
The posting date can differ from both the entry date (day of entry into the system) and the document date (day of creation of the original document).
Posting Key:The posting key describes the type of transaction which is entered in a line item.
For every posting key, you specify properties which control the entry of the line item or are noted in the line item itself.
The most important properties which are derived from the posting key are:
The account type
The allocation to the debits or credits side
The possible or necessary specifications which are to be entered in the line item.
DocType:The document type classifies the accounting documents. It is stored in the document header.
Attributes that control the entry of the document, or which are themselves noted in the document, are defined for each document type. In particular, the number range assigned to the associated documents is defined on the basis of the document type.

Credit and debit a/c are posting in same account

After generating invoice when checking the accounting documents the both credit and debit accounts are posting into the same accounts.
T-code:FB03. How to solve this?
Regards,
C Chaitanya

Hi:
It is quite possible that you debited and credited the same account in one transaction. For example you can debit and credit an account simultaneously in FB50 and generate accounting document showing same entries for account in FB03.Please check.

Parked journal entry when approve and post it - posts to other accounts...

Help!!!!
We have a parked Journal Entry! When we open it to approve and post - sometime it changes the G/L account and makes an entry to some other account.
How can that be?
It happened couple times!

The user must have changed erronously.
Otherwise, if we are posting to the same account, the parking document should not be changed.
When there are no substituions in the system, I do not think any other possibility to happen this.
You can ask the user again to park to the same account and try to post again to double check whether it is being posted to other account or not. If it is really posting to different account, then there is an issue to be looked into.

Ravi
