AR postings with multiple business areas is not allowed

Hi
A user is trying to post a customer invoice with two line items/two profit centres and two business areas (BA) and is receiving the above error message.
I feel that is is logical due to the question as to what BA the cusomer belongs to. However, I noted some threads on Document split. I am not aware of document split functionality.
Your comments on whether this is possible or how to check whether this funcionality is already configured is appreciated.
Thanks
NW

Hi,
Please check the following in IMG
FA-GL Accounting new-Business Transactions-Document Splitting-Define Document Splitting characters for general ledger accounting.
Here check whether the BA is checked for both the Zero Balance and Mandatory field.

Error while posting Customer with Multiple sales areas using DEBMAS05.

Dear experts,
We are generating IDOCS vis SAP DS for posting Customer master. The message type used is DEBMAS and basic type is DEBMAS05. we have a requirement to create 1 customer with multiple sales areas. However, we are ending up with a strange error: "Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1". Despite the IDOC going into status 51, the customer gets created and the 1st sales area too. the 2nd sales area however is not created! The IDOC data definitely contains Name1, otherwise the customer would not have been created in the first place.
As the error message is related to the Address data, I also explored upon exploring this erorr further on the lines of Central Address management where in the ADRMAS and DEBMAS have to be passed together(IDOC Serialiization). OSS Note (384462) provides further details about this. One Important point from the note is:
"As you have to specify the logical name of the sending system among other things, SAP is not able to make any default settings in the standard systems. When you use the serialization groups delivered as a standard by SAP, the address objects are imported before the master objects.Thus the sequence address data before master objects must only be adhered to if one of the following points applies to your application:
Such fields are set as required entry fields that are only provided by the BAS in the Customizing of the customer or vendor master.
For your customers, contact persons exist to which a private address or a different business address is assigned.".
This is not the case in our situation, as we do not have required entry fields in customizing that are only provided by the BAS, so the error is all the more confusing and I am not too sure what the cause is.
If someone have experienced the same issue before and have found a solution to it, kindly help out.

I have found the cause and solution to this problem.
This error ”Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1” and other similar errors like “Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-SORT1“ which occurrs during the IDOC posting when there are more than one sales area or company code occurs when the customer number range is set up for Internal numbering. This means, that the number gets generated only at the time of save and upon debugging the IDOC, we found out that after creating the customer and the first sales area/company code record, the segment E1KNA1M is cleared completely! This is the reason, it throws an error which points to a mandatory KNA1 field as missing. (Like NAME1, SORT1 etc.)
This was resolved by splitting the IDOC into 2.
The solution is to First post only the KNA1 segment and create the customer.
In the second step, pass the IDOC with all other segments along with E1KNA1M, but pass only KUNNR in E1KNA1M and the rest of the fields in E1KNA1M as “/”: you would have got the KUNNR after the first step.
Important note: This requirement to split the IDOCs does not occur when the customer number is known upfront. (Meaning cases where the customer number is externally generated) I also tested this and created a customer with external numbering and I was able to post more than 1 sales area with the same IDOC.
I noticed multiple threads with the same issue, but none of it had a concrete answer. I hope this information will be useful for anyone facing similar problems.
Cheers

Business area is not being specified in cost center master.

Hello Professional friends,
When i specify Business area in existing cost center master data, it appears an error massage - "Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data already exists)"
I tried to change the validity by analysis Period, when i do this, it appears anothe error " No further processing (contact your system administrator)"
Its user critical requirement that he want to specify business for all new and existing cost center.
there is no problem with new cost center.
Waiting for valuable suggestion.

Hello,
The rule is that if you make any actual or planned date within the current year, you cannot make any changes to any of the organizational units within the cost center master.
From the next year, you can remove / change the business are within the cost center master, provided:
You have to change the validity period of the cost center master by doing:
Go to KS02
Edit ==> Analysis Period
put your cursor on the valid from e.g. 01.01.1900 and click F5 (the line gets selected and become blue)
Click on Other Analysis period and then change the analysis period. The new analysis period must be starting with the first date of the next fiscal year.
Now change or remove the business area.
For this year, surely you cannot change the business area, since there postings.
Do not try to write any ABAP program to change the standard in order avoid the business area change error, it would end up data inconsistencies.
Thanks,
Ravi

Single Cheque for Multiple Business Area

Hi Experts
How can I print one cheque for multiple business area with the option of printing different cheques still remaining?
Thanks
Nadia

Hi Nadia.....If Iam not mistaken you DONOT want to make Separate Payments for each Business Area.
In such a case donot select the checkbox Separate Payments for Business Area -FBZP--Paying Company code customisation.
If this indicator is set, line items from different business areas are paid separately.
Hope Iam clear about this.
Please assign points if helpful

Business area is not appearing in the FBL1N

Hello Experts,
Please give me your valuable suggestions for below issue.
Business area is not appearing for few transactions for particular vendor in TC: FBL1N, We are using Ecc 6.0. Please advice.
Thanks,

Please review note 549182 FAQ: Business Area Accounting
in particular see point 3.
3. Question:
With customer and vendor items, why can you not enter a business area?
Answer:
Open items are assigned to business areas depending on the expense and
revenue items of the invoice.
Because of this dependency, open items can be assigned to several
business areas. Thus the assignment is no longer unique. There is a
function available in the balance sheet adjustment that enables a
subsequent assignment.
With a unique dependency, the business area is copied into the open
items not assigned to a business area during the posting of the
document.
Also consider SAP Note 41294 in this context.

Business Area is not visible

I have Discoverer 10g 9.0.4. The EUL is visible by a couple of accounts. Of the accounts that can see the Business Area, I can revoke the BA and it disappears from the user. I can then grant it back to the user and it is visible again.
With a new database account with the same database permissions as the other accounts, the business area is not visible. I can log in with one of the "bad" accounts I can see the EUL5 tables. I can see that in EUL5_ACCESS_PRIVS and EUL5_EUL_USERS these accounts should be able to see the business area but no matter what I do in Admin, nothing is visible. What am I missing?
I've even tried granting select on all EUL5 tables to public but that did nothing. I tried granting administrator access to these accounts but that didn't make the BA visible either.
I tried another desktop with Discoverer Administrator installed and tried granting/revoking access to these accounts but that didn't help either.
HELP! :)

I did the following as a test:
create user test_disco identified by test_disco default tablespace tools temporary tablespace temp;
grant connect to test_disco;
grant dba to test_disco;
-- Next, use Discoverer Administrator and grant access to the BA
-- Next logon as TEST_DISCO and run the select statement:
select b.ba_name
from EULOWNER.eul5_eul_users u,
EULOWNER.eul5_bas b,
EULOWNER.eul5_access_privs p
where u.eu_id = p.ap_eu_id
and b.ba_id = p.gba_ba_id
and u.eu_username = user
-- one row returned
-- Next, connect with Discoverer Desktop or Discoverer Plus as TEST_DISCO and unable to see any Business Areas.
What is going on?

In configuration we have assigned bus area to plant and division wise.
Where to configure so that Bus Area shouls reflect in all line items in FB02.

Debasish

Dear Laxmipati
Thanks for the reply.But we maintain only one business area for one invoice as it is a service related invoice and the invoice line item is always one.So there is no case of multiple bus area.
Plz guide.......

Business Area is not flowing to Billing Doc Line item

Hi,
Since recently we have observed that in some billing document creation, the business area in sales order line item is not flowing to the billing document line item.
VBRP-GSBER remains blank due to which we face problem in J1IIN txn.
This is not happening in all the cases. There are very few instances where business area is becoming blank in billing document line item.
But when the same billing document is reversed and new billing document is created, the business area flows properly to billing document line item (in VBRP).
Can anybody suggest why such erratic behaviour? And how to resolve the issue?
Thanks and Regards
Ratna

Dear Shiva Ram and Srinath,
Thanks for your reply
I had checked the settings in SPRO. These are OK. The sales order line item is deriving business area properly. But in some cases (not in all the cases) the business area is not flowing to Billing Line Item during billing document creation. It is happening in production server and not in development server.
I intend to use user exit userexit_fill_vbrk_vbrp to fill the VBRP-GSBER col with VBAK-GSBER if VBRP-GSBER is blank during saving the sales bill thro VF01..
Pl. suggest.
Regards
Ratna

CDs with multiple artists are added to the library multiple times I want to be able to add the artwork to all.

CDs with multiple artists are added to the library multiple times. Usually one has the artwork. I want to add the artwork to the others. The instructions are inaccurate. I tried it several ways and it does not work. How do I add the artwork shown on one of the albums to the other albums (same album, different artists)?

Try Ethernet over Power adapters.. these are very popular for your kind of environment.. being able to make non-wireless link to another area where you can setup a wireless access point.
Airport Express are not great for wireless power.. if you really have issues with wireless strength in a bad environment apple stuff is not the way to go.
The comparison chart here.
http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/lanwan/router-charts/bar/58-2_4-ghz-dn?see=P_F
This is their worst test location you can also see averages.. the latest airport extreme.. is there a long way down.. and that is a much better wireless device than Airport Express.
The Ubiquiti power AP is small cheap and designed for precisely this duty.. useless in an apple wireless network.. you will need to run ethernet or EOP adapters back to the main router.. but if the normal omni directional antennas don't provide enough signal you can get directional ones.. I suspect you can cover your whole apartment with a pair of these and high gain directional antenna.

Document Splitting with Different Business Area

HI
I have a situation, where i need to create a new document type and it needs to be configured in such a way that vendor invoices and credit notes can be booked with the correct doc splitting and using different Business Areas.
I like to know if this is possible, and if yes how.
Earlier the client used to post the transactions, with different business areas, as we get only a warning message to reset the business area of the vendor.
Now that we have activated New G/L accounting, with document splitting we get the warning message,
but then the profit center will not balance, so we have an error.
The client requires that they need to post to a different business area, and the document splitting should happen.
Any suggestions on this will be great.

Hi Srikanth,
In my config setting under Document Splitting i have the Zero Balance ticked for it.
My Scenario is as an Ex. I am debiting a G/L account for 1000, and giving Business Area X, with a cost Center which is assigned to Business Area X.
And Crediting a Vendor for 1000 with Business Area Y.
Will this scenario work with Document Splitting enabled, i am doubtful on this, but my client needs this.
Can you tell me if this is a possible scnerio.
If yes then how?

Multiple business areas

Hi All,
In invoice multiple business areas are there . that time any business area is not updating in vendor line item.
Is there any way to solve this problem?
Please tell me. It is uregent
Thanks
Krishna

Hi Krishna,
You have multiple business area and wants to update in Vendor line item, system is showing blank in busuiness area field.
As this is very much logical as you have not defined any split ratio between the busienss areas. How the system will split the vendor line items.
Ex:- You have vendor invoice of Rs 10000/-
it consits of two business area 4000/-(Mumbai) and rest 6000/- for Kolkata.
But you have not mentioned any split ratio.
You can do this using document split concept.

So I created two delivery for one delivery business area is picking and for other business area is not picking in delivery document so I am unable to do PGI it's giving error message that Business area is requred for G/L acct.

hi,
not to confuse yourself. see these steps to determine the business area.
1. define the business area - ( link that with your division.)
IMG=ENTERPRISE STURCTURE = FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING= DEFINE BUSINESS AREA.
2. assign that your salea area. thru the same menu path but in assignment under sales and distribution.
3. maintain the rules by sales area as 2 for your sales area.
after all this, u try it , it will be determine your requirement.
reward points if it is useful.
