Accurals and account key

Hi,
I want to know differnece between accurals and account key.
Suppose for particular condition if i will have both then what will be impact..
At the time of GRn which key is coouring meand accural or accoun key.
Thx . in advance.
regards,
Rajendra D. Sawant.

As  I have told   before   that this both comes in play when u have delivery cost in PO
so when u do GR or MIRO this both keys for    delivery condition type get activited
both this key are used to determine GL account for automatic determination and the setting is done in OBYC
Accurals come in to action only if u have activated purchase accounting for your company code keys used are EIN, EKG and FRE
Account key comes in action for posting freight accounts (delivery cost) for normal inventory valuation.
SO say u have activated purchase accounting for ur company code
and ur po value is
base price   1000
Freight cost  100        having FRE in Accural and  FR1 in Account key
and in OBYC  u have assigned    GL to EIN, EKG FRE and FRI
when u post GR
BSX     1100 +
WRX    1000 -
FR1        100 -
EIN       1100+
EKG     1000-
FRE       100 -
and    in     MIRO
Vendor  1100 -
WRX      1000 +
FR1        100 +
EIN       1100-
EKG     1000+
FRE       100 +
Accurals EIN, EKG and FRE
are        only used if purchasing accounting is activated , and is u to just get the total purchases   
hope now its clear

  • Accrul and Account key in Condition

    Hi Experts,
    I have a specific Requirement, I have created a condition thru M/06 and attached to schema thru M/08. The problem is whenever we use this condition we want that finance entry should be like below mentioned.
    SUBCONT PROCESSING CHARGES DEBIT AND GR/IR CREDIT.
    What accrul and account key I should use in the condition.
    Full Points for helping answer.
    Regards
    GR

    Dear Andra,
    Thanks for the answer, actually in our scenario, when we sent material for subcontracting (suppose plating) vendor charges Sales Tax on 60% Value and Job Work Rate for 40% value.
    (Example Say vendor charges vat / cst on inr 6/- and No Tax or service Tax on Rs 4/- if total agreed price with the vendor is Rs 10/-). Now we have thought to maintain 6/- as basic price in subcontracing info with tax code and Rs 4/- as other condition with out any tax. Now when we have made condition and incorporate in the info. But it is hitting freight clearing/ freight inward account as accrul and account key is made for freight etc.
    Now If you say condition can not be made for GR/IR CR and Sub Proc charges DR, then in what way I should pass the vendor invoice thru MIRO. We don't want to post two miro for one invoice.
    Please help me.
    Regards
    GR

  • 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

  • Accural and Account Key with G/L Account

    Dear Gurus,
                                I have confiquered new pricing schema for my client.In that i used Accounting key and Accurals.But those are not posting the amount in GL accounts.
                                Any Setting Missed?? 
    Plz give some suggestions..............
    thx in advance...........

    Hi,
    What for you are using condition type MWVS? Just check & cross check the real requirement and usage of condition type MWVS in MM schema.
    May be you are using condition type MWVS for entering Input tax manually, if yes so, then Manual entries field in u2018Changes which can be made u2018segment and do it as C{Manual entry has priority}
    Or ,If Manual entries field in u2018Changes which can be made u2018segment is D Not possible to process ,then have access sequence OR see the condition category, if it is D, then see where the tax need to pick up. Check Control data-2 for condition type MWVS and see the fields of Exclusion & Pricing date which make the differences. Just design MM schema  with condition types by giving proper input to system to get expected result.
    NOTE:
    Your thread on "posting to G/L account" is already answered. If you have further any issue, start a new thread. Check & Read Forum Rules :

  • Accrual and account key

    HI
    Can i  keep  account key and accrual same
    Vinz

    Hi
    I think you are asking about the account key and Accrual key in Pricing Procedure
    Any condition type which is not statistical in  Pricing Procedure the value has to hit to accounts
    For this account key is given in Pricing Procedure and the same is linked in VKOA with GL accounts (first account)
    In case of rebates the accurals needs to be captured in separate GL account and hence Accrual key is maintained only for Rebate condition types and the same is captured  in VKOA with  provisional account (second account)
    In standard for rebate conditon types ERB is used as account key and ERU  is used as accural key
    Can i keep account key and accrual same
    Yes you can keep both as ERB or ERU (or both as ERJ or any key)
    System will not get confused
    Because Accurals ( the 16 th column in PP)  the second provisional account is taken and for accounts ( the 15 th column in PP)  first GL is taken in VKOA
    But we will get confused
    Hence it is better to keep as different keys

  • 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.

  • Requirement of creation of new condition types and Account keys tax codes

    Hi,
                   In what all possible scenarios will the requirement to create new Condition types and accont keys arise for the creation of new depreciation keys.
    Thanks
    Raja.

    Unless you use jurisdiction codes, and no external tax system, for
    example with tax procedure TAXUSJ, there is no validity dates for the
    condition records.  You can see this differnce by comparing the tables
    A003 without jurisdiction codes and A053 with jurisdiction codes.  A053
    contains the extra fields DATBI (key field) and DATAB.  This is the
    standard functionality.
    Please have a look at the following part of note 418582:
    " Changing past percentage rates has to be inhibited in order to avoid
    database inconsistencies. For this reason, the functions which allow you
    to transport time-dependent tax codes with percentage rates from the
    past are not supported."

  • MM Pricing: Account and Accrual Keys

    Hi !
    In a calculation schema we can assign Account Keys and Accrual Keys to condition types.
    I am noticing that if I assign a Accrual Key, the Account Key is ignored.
    Is this a correct observation?
    If I assign a Accrual Key do I have to leave Account Key blank?
    Under what circumstances, if any, would it make sense to assign both Accrual Key and Account Key to a condition type in a calc schema?
    If someone can clarify my confusion, I will appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    Anisha.

    Anisha,
    Please note accural key are in action when "Purchase account Managment "is active for your company code .So please check Purchase account active or not (IMG-MM-Valuation and account assignment-Account determination-Acc.dete.without whizard-Purchase account management --activate purchase acc management in company code).note that puchase acc is used in following country only...Belgium,spain,portugal,france italy,finland....
    Use of accurals---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.

  • Account determination with out account keys

    Can we do account determination with out account keys? and explains how?

    Hi Gopal,
    Account determination is an FI interface with other modules inorder to determine the right G/L accounts for posting.
    And account keys act as a bridge for posting the amounts between FI and other functional applications which serves as the basic purpose of any business such as revenues, discounts, stock values etc.
    Therefore if you dont consider account keys while configuring account determination...........no postings will be made in to G/L accounts. then your entire business would go for a toss.

  • Account Key Maintenance in IMG

    In Pricing procedure, we have Account keys associated with the condition types. These account keys play a vital role in determining G/L accounts. Now the same association structure between pricing condition types and account key is maintained in Revenue Account Key Assignment part in IMG. My question is why do we have two places in IMG to maintain this pricing condition type and account key association structure ?

    Hi
    These both are same thing. In SAP apart from this(account key), you may found many settings which can be define at two or more than two places. This is due to different roles in same project. If any FI guy want to see account key settings then instead of check pricing procedure(SD settings), he/she could check revenue account settings.

  • Accounting Key and Accurals

    Dear All,
            can any one explain the difference between Accounting Key and Accurals in Pricing Procedure
    Thanks,
    Tiru

    Hi:
    You define your account keys in this menu option and allocate them to the condition types in the pricing procedures.
    With the account keys, you group together similar accounts in financial accounting. Using the account key, the SAP System finds the desired G/L accounts.
    The accrual keys form part of account determination. These keys are used here to define the posting of the revenue generated to respective account heads& to subsequent assignment to GL accounts and payment to respective parties.
    Please let me know if you need more information.
    Assign points if useful.

    hi,
    Account key:
    1. spro --> sales and distribution --> basic functions --> account assignment and costing --> revenue account determination --> define and assign account keys.
    2. In the pricing procedure , for that condition type, you will mention that ( if you want to post it into separate G/L account then) you will assign account key and accurals.
