Activating Business area

Hi,
Is it possible to activate Business area balance sheet in mid of the fiscal year.
Please reply.
Thanks,

Hi,
It is possible to activate business area balance sheet in midst of the financial area. You have to note the following points in this regards-
1.Business area balance sheet will not be available for whole year as it is activated in midst.
2.Any business area report will also be available from the creation date of business area only.
3.If you are using many business area with specific user assigned to specific business area you can use user exits to have accurate posting & reporting for each business area.
Warm Regards

FIN_GSBER scenario activation (business area)

Hello,
Please can you help me ? We decided to activate FIN_GSBER scenario (for business are), but we've done a lot of postings before activation. Now we want to see P/l and BS wise BA.Is some program exist to fix it? is there any t-code or program ?

Hi,
If the scenario is not assigned to the ledger then the fields will not be updated in the NewGL tables.
Once you have assigned the the scenarios to the ledger then for any new postings the field will be updated, but for postings that took place before you assigned the scenario the field will remain blank.
This is why we ask customers to complete their NewGL and document splitting customising, and to fully test it, before go-live, to avoid such issues. Please see the note 891144 for further information.
Unfortunately there is no standard transaction/tool for that, but maybe someone else in Forum can help sharing what they did in their companies to achieve the same.
I am really sorry that I do not have a more positive answer than that.
With my Best Regards,
Vanessa.

FF67-Business Area Automatic Derivation

Dear Experts,
We have activated Business Area wise balance sheet. Kindly let me know if there is any possibilities of deriving Business Area automatically in FF67 from the Payment Document no entered in "Bank Reference.
Thanks !

Hi Manya,
I am not clear about your Question..in BRS-FF67, if you are using post with clearing for posting Area 2 and interpretation algorithm, then system will itself look for the Business Area in the posted document of either incoming/Outgoing Document and that Business Area would get derived for Main Bank Account posting based on Document Splitting Principles.
But in case you want to achieve what you have stated for valid reasons that you may have, use User EXIT in Substitution and write your logic for derivation in the Exit.

Business area wise Trail balance is not showing balance

Dear all ,
I am facing problem in f.08.
We have 5 company code ,8 Business area, We have Activated Business area wise Balance sheet in OBY6.and assigned Plant division and Valuation area .
I am activated document splitting, Here also i maintained Business area and Profit center is mandatory field.
when i saw the business area trial balance gl balance is not showing its giving error" no list generated."
Kindly suggest me what is the setting we missed.
Thanks and Advance.
Girish.

Hello,
I think, you did not set "Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers" customizing on SPRO.
Financial Accounting (New) -> Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) -> Ledgers -> Ledger -> Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers.
You must define FIN_GSBER to scenarios for ledger "0L".
Then system fills business area on table FAGLFLEXT.
But unfortunately can not correct older data.

Business Area not determined in batch posting.

Dear SAP experts,
My client is on 4.6c system. Till now they were not using business area. Recently we have activated business area balance sheet. While posting FI document manually using FB01, business area derivation happens correctly on vendor/customer/balance sheet line items. However, when same document is posted via bdc session, business area derivation is not happening. I also tried to manually simulate bdc session. Still no derivation happened. Any suggestion/solution will be highly appreciated.
Unit.

Hi Jayesh,
How system is deriving business area in case of vendor/customer when you are doing FB01. Means its through some substitution rule or some default value.

Business Area - greyed out

Hi!
One particular activity was set DLFL and in the Activity- assignment field it is asking for Business Area. The field has greyed out. It is not allowing to remove the deletion flag either.Your help in this regard shall be appreciated. I tried with CJ02,CJ07 or CJ12. No use...
MRD

hi,
see oss note 517253
You have subsequently activated business area balance sheets for a company code that is relevant in the network/WBS element. If there are already actual costs for the network, network activity or WBS element, the business area is then no longer ready for input. In the detail screen of the assignment data, the system generates an error message in the case of an initial business area, although the corresponding field is not ready for input.
SAP does not recommend you to subsequently change the business area in an object (network, network activity, WBS element) that has actual costs.
It is the case, for example, that CO documents written before the subsequent change do not contain the business area and therefore deviate from future documents with business area.
During the subsequent implementation of the business area balance sheet, the correct procedure is to close existing networks and projects posted to without business area and to create new networks and projects with business area to which the future postings are made.
Now the business area is still maintainable once for networks, network activities or WBS elements that are already posted with actual costs. This is then set to 'No longer changeable' immediately after the entry of the business area.
1. The corrections of Notes 507457 and 514782 are a prerequisite.
2. Implement the attached program corrections.

Activate usage of Business Area

Hi everyone,
I have a request concerning the usage of business areas. Accounting would like to introduce business areas for use with an already productive company code. Can you give me any hints what to pay attention to when activating business areas in an already productive landscape?
Thanks for your input!
Best regards,
Martin

Hi, Judith.
I think we'll have some problem if using Personnel Area here. Because one PA must point to only one Company Code, but here what I need is a set of codes which is company code crossed. For an instance, like mentioned above, headquater HR manager and branch plant HR manager they are both in Management Area, but the former belongs to company code 1000(General Company) and the latter belongs to company code 2001(Branch Plant).
So I think here Business Area is the best choice we got. But here comes another question that is: if FI/CO team does not adopt BA yet, who should be responsible to maitain BA codes into SAP system? FI/CO team or HR team?

Hi:
You can set it as invisible using screen variant SHD0....I do not have access to SAP write now otherwise i would have told you step by step process to do so. Create screen variant for t code J1IH with BA invisible and and assign it to this t code in SHD0 and activate.

In Posted Document How to Update Business Area Field ?

Hello peers,
I am training to update Business area in some of my line items, for example when i have posted a doc in MIRO it has not updated in my TAX a/C's. Now i want to update the same. So i tried doing the F.5D and F.5E, but it's saying
Nothing was selected
Message no. FR333
In one of the threads i read in OB65 business area has to deactivate, then post, and then activate the same to do F.5D. but it is activated before posting the documents.
What should i do now. and what should i maintain in OBXM.
Please guide me to do the same. or suggest if any other way of doing it.
Thanks in advance
Murali

Dear Murali
Maintain a Clearing A/c under transaction GA0 e.g. Business Area Clearing A/c
Make sure you have activated Business Area FS in OB65
Then run F.5D and Post through F.5E B
However by doing this you will not be able to update the Business Area but it will pass an adjustment entry
Hope it Helps
Cheers
