Audit Report Fix (Manual Journal Entries for Inventory)

Hello!
Curious if anyone has been able to fix an inventory audit report using journal entries?
For example: if an item was on inventory account 1500 based on it's item group assignment, then say 20 items are received for $1 each, then 5 are sold at $1 then the item group is switched and now it has an inventory account of 1520 and 5 more items are issued out.
Running the audit report summarizing by accounts will show $15 as the balance in 1500 and -5 in 1520. So when we go to actually check the accounts to reconcile them at the end of a period, our inventory accounts are always off.
I have identified manual journal entries meant to 'fix' a GL account, but these have made the audit report basically unusable for reconciliation.
Is there a way to journalize a change in the inventory accounts while making the change occur in OINM as well??
I have looked through several expert empowerment sessions that acknowledge this as a problem, but do not offer any solutions.
Thanks!
Mike

Hi Mike:
Changing Item groups while inventory is on hand is a problem. I have found a way to correct this, but it is a multi step process. I would try this in DEMO first to make sure you get the proper results.
Try this.
Below is the procedure for correcting the G/L Accounts on your Inventory Audit Report It is complicated and needs to be performed when no other users are in the system. Journal entries will not correct this problem.
Here it is.
1.     Review Inventory Audit Report by Summarize by Accounts for the item.
2.     Do a Misc. Issue to remove the inventory.
3.     Review Inventory Audit Report again.
4.     Change the Acct # on the Item Group for the Inventory Item to match the negative value account number. CAUTION! Make sure that users are not performing transactions on the system when you do this.
5.     Do another Good Receipt for 1 each at price shown in Negative value account number. Enter as a positive number.
6.     Re-run the Inventory Audit to confirm that the negative account has been zeroed out.
7.     Change Item Group Inventory account to remaining positive value account number.
8.     Do an Inventory Issue for quantity of 1 each.
9.     Re-run the Inventory Audit Report for the item. All accounts should now have zero value.
10.     Change Item Group account setting back to correct account for future.
I hope it works for you.

Vicki Smith

Park and Post management review step for manual journal entries

We are implementing SAP and want to discuss the best way to automate in SAP a high dollar/value (maybe $100K and above) "park and post" management review step for posting manual journal entries. I believe SAP does not offer dollar/value limits as standard functionality for defining a park & post process. If this correct, what have you seen from your other clients using SAP park & post? Is there a different way to get where we want without customizing a workflow or generating a new transaction set?

Hi you could limit the authorisation for the users only to park and then a responsible person could review it and post. You can set a tolerance limit for customers and vendors.

Exchange rate differences posting failed due to manual journal entries

when i run exchange rate differences and try to post the result, system shows "No matching recording found 'journal entry' (OJDT) (ODBC-2028) [message 131-183]" at the bottom panel ane the posting was failed. then i found the problem is actually from manual journal entries made to a business partner. as long as i deselect the manual journal entries, the posting was successfully done.
i am using B1 2007B with pl09. is this standard in B1 2007B that exchange rate differences posting does not work with manual journal entries of BP?

you are right! it is a bug in 2007B.
The posting has no problem if the base reference number is same as the transaction number in the manual JE document. however, if we define a numbering series which is different from the transaction serial number, then we have problem with the posting. System searchs for the JE records by using base reference number as transaction number. That is why it could not find the JE document and then report the error message.
so, where should i post the bug to SAP and let them fix the bug as soon as possible?
thanks for the help!

Manual Journal entry limitations in sap b1

Hi friends,
We are creating Manual JE in sap b1. We give the access only two users for creating Manual JE. Now we will plan one more thing . Limitation of JE . it is means, per user we will go to allow only 1000 manual journal entries only creating by the user. if they reached their limitation we block that . How i will block ? Is it possible in sap b1 ? or any store procedure is there?

Number of Journal Entries could be limited by giving user specific document numbering series for a particular user.
Hope this helps.

FC - Cross-category validation in Central Manual Journal Entries

Hello experts,
At a client site we are implementing several different reporting categories. There are requirements to validate certain accounts between categories.
Within the packages this is working fine - example:
But when used in Central Journals the controls behave differently.
In our issue there is a JE posted on the Category "IFRS-ACT". We then try to post a journal on a different category (same ledger) and want to validate to make sure we are balanced between both.
The control runs OK and recognises that there is a difference between the amounts stored in the separate categories but does not bring the amount stored on the category that it is validating against:
Can anyone offer any advice on how to resolve the issue? Or is it not possible?
Many thanks!

Hello,
This is a known behavior. Controls and formulas using
external data (data from another category) are not applied to local and central manual
journal entries.

Emna.

How to reverse a manual Journal Entry Voucher created via Custom BO

Hi All,
I have created a custom BO for triggering a Journal Entry Voucher for each and every Customer Invoice created in the system.Normally all Customer Invoice will be having a corresponding Journal Entry document ,apart from the default JE document I have created an additional Journal Entry for each CI through a Custom BO because of the Business requirement.I am using the default JE as the source document for the newly created JE for the same CI.
If a custom invoice gets cancelled only the default JE will get reversed.How to reverse the newly created JE too.I there a way to carry out this reversal process through PDI using ABSL.
Please find below the code for details.
Custom BO contains these lines.
import ABSL;
import AP.FinancialAccounting.Global;
import AP.CustomerInvoicing.Global;
var query;
var selparam;
var resultset;
var query1;
var selparam1;

selparam = query.CreateSelectionParams();
selparam.Add(query.UUID.content, "I", "EQ", this.ZJEUUID.content);
resultset = query.Execute(selparam).GetFirst();
selparam.Clear();
if (resultset.IsSet())
    var CI_ID = resultset.OriginalEntryDocumentContainingObjectReference.FormattedID;
    if (!CI_ID.IsInitial())
        query1 = CustomerInvoice.QueryByElements;

Please respond ASAP
Regards,
Navin Kandasamy

Hello Navin,
There is an action "Cancel" in the Accounting Entry BO. Try calling that action from ABSL whenever the CI is canceled. But to do that you should have the reference of the created JEV through code.
Hope this helps.

Is it possible to automatically trigger a Manual Journal Entry?

Hi Forum,
This could apply to any situation:
Suppose when I create an A/R invoice, I would like another manual journal entry to be created automatically. Is this possible and how could it be achieved?
Thank you.

Hi Mahendra and Gordon:
This is the situation:
Relates to DropShip Order:
1.Client create DropShip Sales Order (against drop ship warehouse).
2. DropShip Sales Order generates PO (Note no liability accounts are hit)
3. Client wants to invoice their drop ship customer immediately by emailing A/R invoice.
This mean the revenue accounts are already hit and our client has registered a revenue.
Problem : However liability accounts are not hit and our client may not receive A/P invoice for say 2 weeks. This means the books show exagerated revenue.
I suggested - A/P reserve invoice to be created immediately, but it needs to be canceled which leaves original PO in closed state in 8.8.
Second method I suggested to create a manual journal entry to hit deferred liability account to be reversed in two weeks. The client says, this is backoffice job and they do not want them to have access to journal entries.
In anycase, whatever reason, our client will change business practice, however, I thought let me check what it takes to create manual deferred liability auto reversal entry automatically.
Is there any other way to handle this situation?
Thanks.
Edited by: Syed Aleem on Jun 24, 2011 3:13 PM
As soon as A/R invoice is created, a deferred payable needs to be updated also automatically at the same time. This is the requirement.

Background Journal entry for Incoming payment

Dear Experts,
Would you please help me in how to get the journal entry for an incoming payment entered as "payment on account".
The relationship map does not show this, but I can see the credit entry for the customer is passed.
same happens for incoming payment made for specific AR invoices.
SAP Doc says...
Result
An incoming payment document is created.
A journal entry that credits the customer and the tax accounts (if tax is involved), and debits the receivable account, is created.
The journal entries of the incoming payments and the paid invoices are reconciled.
The paid invoices are closed; they no longer appear in the Open Items list and in the Incoming Paymentswindow as documents for payment.
So how to check the journal entries for incoming payments.
Regards

Hi,
To see journal entry, drill down arrow at transaction no of incoming payment window.

Currency conversion rule not executing for manual journal entries.

Hi,
We have currency conversion business rule set in our project. THis business rule is not converting LC to other currencies for manual journal posting entries. i.e, it is audit id with DATASRC_TYPE="M".
Can any one let me know if any specific settings are to be done for this to work?

Hi,
Is the currency conversion working on the other datasources?
If yes, then try to post some record through input schedule in the M datasource, run the currency conversion, and see if the currency conversion is working fine or not.

Hot links to report listing journal entries for an account

Hi Experts,
We are going live soon with BPC-NW and have some questions regarding BPC-Excel reports, all done with EVDRE() function. Our BPC service pack level is 05, we are using Excel 2007 SP2 for the client and BW 7.01 ABAP Stack (Enh Pack 1) on the server side.
We want to produce an Excel standad report with hot links to a report listing journals entries, passing it a parameter (account) so the report would list all journals and their entries for that account, and, so far, we haven't been able to find out how to do it.
We tried using buttons and associate them with macro MNU_eJOURNAL_REPORT but it doesn't open the report journal by account directly and doesn't seem to accept any parameters.
Has anyone found a way to do this?
Best regards,
Joao

Hi Peter
Thanks for the quick reply.
Yes, we do manage our stock by warehouse. I went to admin->setup-> stock-> and then 'item groups' and 'warehouses' and checked the accounting tab. In both cases the 'Sales return Account' is marked as our stock account. Are there more hidden places I can look? Thanks

Hi,
Use Journal Vouchers instead of journal Entry.
For Ex :
1.User Enter Journal Vouchers.
2. Finance manager or Accts manager open the
Journal vouchers and convert it to Journal Entry.
*Close the thread if issue solved.
