Balance sheet accounts not updating in GLPCA / GLPCT

Hello,
I am working on MySAP 6.0 version and posting FI document giving profit center as an account assignment.
When I check the table entries in GLPCA and GLPCT I could see only P&L accounts updated in these tables but not the balance sheet accounts viz Bank Account.
To be more elaborate if my entry is as under
Dr Expense Account (PCA1) GLPCA / GLPCT (It is updated)
Cr Bank Account (PCA2) GLPCA / GLPCT (ignoring this line item)
However if I post a similar entry directly into PCA module these tables do get updated with balance sheet accounts.
Would anybody have any reasoning for this?

HI
Originally till 4.7 SAP had only month end transaction to push many of balance sheet items to PCA only from the new versions it is having this online transfer usinf assignment of PCA to Gl accounts and then deriving PCA through splitting rules. Thats is why P7L items automatically flow however for balance sheet items especially creditors and debtors, bank and others it requires proper derivation.
Even in Balance sheet Asset will flow automatically

Can we create a cost element for a Balance Sheet account?

Hi folks,
Is it possible to create a cost element for a balance sheet account? If yes, what are the scenerios we would need it and how is it done?
thanks in advance

Hello
Please review the below information regarding cost elements category 90 : Financial Accounting Balance Sheet Accounts
Category 90 is automatically assigned when you create cost elements in CO whose   general ledger accounts in FI are asset reconciliation accounts
(special balance sheet accounts), not income statement accounts. You
cannot change this category in CO master data maintenance.
FI does not require CO account assignments to cost elements of
category 90. However, if you enter an account assignment, it is only
recorded statistically for real objects.
Category 90 allows you to check order or project budgets for fixed
asset procurement. To do so, enter the investment order or WBS element
in the corresponding field in the asset master. The Asset Management
component ensures that the order or element automatically appears in
the document when you access the asset procurement.
The R/3 System debits the order/WBS element statistically in the
Controlling component, which you can then monitor with availability
control.
You can treat cost elements of category 90 as activity-independent as
part of cost center planning.
Also see note 75980 for further information. From the note:
The use of cost element category 90 is only provided in the standard
system in the following two cases:
1. As of Release 3.0G, asset acquisitions and down payments which are
      assigned directly to a fixed asset or asset under construction can
      be assigned to an account on internal orders or WBS elements
      statistically. In this manner, for example, an availability check
      can be triggered on the order or the WBS element for asset posting.
2. As of Release 4.0, cost elements of category 90 can also be created
      for material stock accounts to display material make-to-order stocks
      on sales orders or customer projects.

Create cart with balance sheet account

Currently, our users create a shopping cart using a cost center or WBS element. However, our Finance department would like the ability to use a balance sheet account (prepaid expense) instead. Is this possible? If so, what would need to be done on the SRM side as well as the SAP side since we use the classic scenario.
We are on SRM 4.0.
Monique Stephens

The business requirement is to charge something to a balance sheet account, not cost center or WBS element. Based on our current security, users are unable to use the balance sheet accounts with their cost centers.
I tried using a balance sheet account with a cost center in our Dev box and received the following error message:
GL Account Cannot Be Used
Comparison of the field selection strings from the G/L account and the account assignment category K reveals that there is an incompatible combination of field selections for the field selection group 'Cost center'.
The G/L account field selection is stored in table T004F; that for the account assignment is stored in table T162K.
I'm not exactly sure how to correct for this message.

Profit center charge to balance sheet account

Hi SAP experts,
I would like to seeking for professional advice on is below business process require to use MM module?
Currently my customer is using MB1B (material transfer) to make an posting to balance sheet account (100) and in MB1B screen there was a column to assign profit center (P1).
So the accounting document will be DR 100(g/l) & CR 110(g/l) and charge to P1(profit center)
When customer go to view on KE80, will show the amount transfer charge to cost element 400
When i go to view line item display for g/l 100, i didn't see got any profit center is assign to as i know that balance sheet account not require to charge cost object (customer is not in SAP 5.0)
Now i would like to ask is there any possible, i can post a profit center(P1) to balance sheet account(100) and charge to other cost element (400) without using MB1B? only use manual general ledger accounting posting (FB01)
Note: customer is not in ECC6
Thanks

Hi,
I'm not an expert in Cost accounting at all. from my own experience I know, that some of P&L accounts might be relevant to Cost accounting and in this case you need to make appropriate settings in the following node for Treasury: Treasury and Risk Management -> Transaction Manager -> General Settings -> Accounting -> Link to Other Accounting Components -> Allocate Additional Account Assignments to Account Assignment References.
I guess in your case it is only Interest Income account relevant for Cost center, you can check it by clicking on field Reference key in standard report TPM20 and you should be referred to window with several documents, including Cost accounting document. As far as I remember, Cost accounting document might consist of just one line item.
hope this will help you.

4KE5 not allocating Balance Sheet Accounts

We created a new cycle for 2011, when we run 4KE5 we noticed that only expense accounts are being allocated correctly but balance sheets are not being allocated for a specific profit center. This was working in 2010. These accounts are non-recon accounts. The only difference we are doing is that we are now running F.5D and 1KEK to transfer receivables to controlling.
The accounts that are not being allocated are in table 3KEH, so nothing change for them for 2011. When I run 4KE5 I don't get warnings or hard stop errors for this profit center. All other profit centers are allocating correctly except one the only message we get when we run 4KE5 for the profit center in question is GA171. The curious thing is that if the account is an expense account is allocating, but if it is a balance sheet acct it does not.
Has anyone experience this before?
Thanks,

Change account range in 3KE2. Since user created new cycle from the budget cycle the account range had changed.

Account 0001-40000011 not allowed to be balance sheet account

Dear SAP,
I received these error messages when try to assign GL to asset in SPRO (Financial Accounting>Asset Accounting>Integration with the General Ledger>Assign G/L Accounts
Account 0001-40000011 not allowed to be balance sheet account
Account 0001-40000011 not defined as P40000011L account
Account 0001-11004010 not allowed to be defined as reconciliation account
Diagnosis
Account 0001 is defined as a balance sheet account in chart of accounts 40000011. This definition is incorrect for the circumstance Clearing account for revenue from asset sale.
You should note that the Customizing definition of the respective depreciation area also has an influence on the consistency check for the general ledger accounts. This particularly affects depreciation areas that are set up for managing investment support measures on the liabilities side. In order for the consistency check to be correct, it is necessary for you to set the correct indicator in the definition of depreciation area.
How can i correct the errors? Is there any setting in configuration i have to do it first.
Thanking you in advance.
TQ

Nazrul

Post balance sheet account to profit center accouting

Hi.experts.
I want to post some blance sheet accounts to profit center accounting,these account include material stock,wip. what should I do?
thanks in advance.
Fannt

Hello
Balance sheet items can be transferred periodically or online in realtime
You can transfer the following balance sheet items to Profit Center Accounting in the standard SAP system at end of period:
    Payables and receivables
   Material stocks
   Assets
   Work in process
This can be done in period closing activities for AR/AP
The assignment of payables and receivables to various profit centers is basically derived from the offsetting entry line of the FI document to which they belong. It is not possible to make structural changes to them within Profit Center Accounting. If, for example, you assign a new profit center to a material, or change the derivation rules when creating sales orders, these actions do not affect the assignments of documents which have already been posted.
The payables and receivables to be divided are calculated in FI at the end of the period. To do so, call up the SAP Easy Access screen and choose Accounting ® Financial Accounting ® General Ledger ® Periodic Tasks ® Closing ® Regroup ® Debit Balance Sheet Account Subsequently.
Enter the company codes for which you want to perform the calculation. For these company codes, the payables and receivables are divided according to profit center and business area. The results are then saved.
You can now transfer the data to Profit Center Accounting. Do not choose the next menu option Post B/S readjustment n Financial Accounting. Instead, transfer the data in the Profit Center Accounting application menu, under Actual Postings ® Period Closing ® Transfer Payables/Receivables
You obtain a list of all the company codes in the active controlling area. Select the desired company codes and the period and fiscal year which you want to transfer to Profit Center Accounting.
The system then posts the payables and receivables to Profit Center Accounting under the reconciliation accounts of the general ledger. No FI documents are created in the process
You can call up the function for transferring material stocks in Profit Center Accounting Customizing, under Actual Postings ® Transfer Selected Balance Sheet Items ® Set Up Material Stocks.
The selection screen provides you with the choice of all company codes within the active controlling area. Select the period to be transferred. The current period is always based on the status of Materials Management. Normally, the data from the previous period is transferred.
You access the transfer function by choosing the following path from the Customizing menu for Profit Center Accounting: Actual postings ® Transferring selected balance sheet items ® Generate opening balance for work in process.
The selection screen provides you with the choice of all company codes within the active controlling area. You also enter the period and fiscal year.
You generally work with the standard results analysis version 0. Should you wish to use a different results analysis version, note that this must be set up in CO Customizing for updating in Financial Accounting, as the corresponding account determination is required.
The program transfers all changes in work in process within a single period. When running this function for the first time with a given controlling area, please select the field Create opening balance. The system then posts the opening balance to the start period. You can also post the opening balance to period 01 at fiscal year change, so avoiding having to carry the balance forward.
You access the transfer program by selecting Actual postings ® Transferring selected balance sheet items ® Generate opening balance for assets in Customizing for Profit Center Accounting.
The selection screen provides you with the choice of all company codes within the active controlling area. The depreciation area book depreciation per trade law (01) is provided as a default. You also select the posting period and the fiscal year.
You should run the program in the background, as large amounts of data are normally selected. If you select the field Line item, a line item will be created for each asset in Profit Center Accounting. When handling a large volume of data, you should only use this option for test purposes.
The system assigns assets to profit centers indirectly, via assigned internal orders or cost centers (see Assigning Assets). The program transfers the acquisition and product costs, as well as cumulated value adjustments. The accounts used for this transfer are taken from account determination for Asset Accounting.
Note that it is only possible to calculate key figures (such as Return on Investment) in Profit Center Accounting correctly if an indirect statement of assets and depreciations is made in Financial Accounting

CO account assignment on a GR/IR Account (Balance sheet Account)

The GR/IR account line item on Goods Receipt(GR) documents picks up the account assignment ( WBS Element, Cost center or an Order) from the Purchase order account assignment.
The GR/IR account is defined as a Balance sheet account. So it is abnormal to pick up a CO account assignment on the GR/IR account line item on a Goods receipt or Invoice document.
I shall appreciate if some expert here lets me know if there is a fix(an OSS note) in order for the GR/IR account NOT to pick up a CO account assignment on the subsequent documents(Goods receipt and Invoice) from the Purchase order.
Thanks in advance.
Vijayanth

Hi Vijaynath,
If you have the modules like CO, PS, FM, IM and activated the above modules, at the time of the GR system compulsarly will ask for account assignment. Because PO might be crated for a project or cost center. In the above 2 cases system will look for account assignment.
I guess system picksup the cost center or WBS against the Raw Material account but not for the GR/IR clearing account. Please check it.
For the raw material and asset accounts you can create statistical cost elements.
Thanks & Regards,
shashi kanth.

Goods receipt(PO) - balance sheet account

Hi,
Can someone explain to me what does posting to balance sheet account upon goods receipt means?
Does balance sheet account = inventory account?
Does this mean that the inventory qty has to be increased after GR?
Thanks

Thanks both of you for the replies.
Can you advise me on how to resolve the below scenarios?
1)Currently, for sales order purchases, we are using acct assign category "sales order" in PO, the stock qty is consumed by the sales order upon goods receipt.
And it will post to COGS & GR/IR acct upon Goods receipt.
If the requirement is to post to balance sheet account upon GR,
-does that mean I have to bring this qty into inventory?
- meaning I should be using another acct assign category in the PO.
2)Another scenario is that they also purchase services for the sales order, and they are handling this purchase using another customized acct assign category in the PO that allows you to post to G/L acct directly without cost center. (no material master entered in the PO)
Upon IV, it will post to COGS and vendor accounts.
If the requirement is to post to balance sheet account upon IV,
- is that possible?
- Does that mean i have to bring this services into inventory as well? does not really make sense..
Hope one of you can clear my doubts on this..

Change GL Account Type from Balance Sheet Account to P&L Statmt Account

Hi Experts's
We have mistakenly defined the GL account as type Balance Sheet Account type and Some postings are done on this GL, we need to change it to P&L Statmt Account, When we do that it's throwing message FH602, as below.
Change balance sheet control in spite of account balance
     Message no. FH602
Diagnosis
     You have changed the G/L account from a "balance sheet account" to a
     "P&L account" or conversely.
     The balance of the account is, however, not zero.
Procedure
     Check your entries.
     If the G/L account was already posted in the previous year, execute the
     balance carryforward again for the current fiscal year. (program
     SAPF011).
Please let me know the procedure to do this change, or do i have to run any report.
Thanks

Inheritation of tax codes in G/L balance sheet accounts (New GL)?

Hello everybody,
one of my customers is migrating to New GL, where they want to use document split for some fields.
For some balance sheet accounts the they also want to inherit the tax code to the balance sheet account line (for reporting purposes).
Is it possible to inherit also the tax code to a splitted balance sheet line?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Angela

Hi Angela,
as Nauma already posted, inheritance is only possible for document split characteristics and tax code is not such a characteristic.
But even if its possible to inheritate / substitute the tax code into the BS sheet line item, what if the posting contains different tax codes (eg visiting an austrian restaurant: the bill contains 10% VAT items (Food) as well as 20% VAT items (beverages wo milk))?
What should be the rule for BS account tax code? So the requirement sounds strange...
Best regards, Christian

Message no FH017 Open item management only allowed for balance sheet accounts

Dear All,
i try to change one Balance Sheet account to P&L Account. However i failed changing the account.
it pops up the error Message no FH017.
For this error, i have already untick the Open Item Management
Can anyone help me on this? Very appreciated on this!
Cheers
Jill

Aslo see help on open Item managed field by pressing f1
Indicator: Open Item Management?
Determines that open items are managed for this account.
Use
Items posted to accounts managed on an open item basis are marked as open or cleared. The balance of these accounts is always equal to the balance of the open items.
Procedure
Set up accounts with open item management if offsetting entries are to be assigned to the postings made to these accounts. Postings to these accounts represent incomplete transactions.
Example:
A goods receipt/invoice receipt (GR/IR) clearing account should be managed on an open item basis so that you can check at any time whether invoices have been received for the goods received for an order.
Set up accounts without open item management if no offsetting entry is to be made against a posting to this account.
Examples
Accounts that are managed on an open item basis include:
Clearing accounts:
Bank clearing account
Payroll clearing account
Cash discount clearing account
GR/IR clearing account
Accounts that are not managed on an open item basis:
Bank accounts
Tax accounts
Raw material accounts
Reconciliation accountsThese are managed implicitly using the subledger open item function.Profit and loss accounts
Materials Management (MM) accounts posted with a posting key that has account type 'M'
