BO FConsolidation without account hiarchy possible?

Hello friends
I have a verry special question: Is it possible to setup a BOFC system including equity- and debt-consolidation without any account hirarchy?
Background: My client is using SAP FI. All reporting units have one company code in sap. In SAP is no account hierarchy just the balance sheet and income statement structure. The aim is to have one chart of accounts for all company codes in SAP and the same chart of accounts for consolidation with BO FC.
It is neccessary to create the accounts in BO FC to build up the hirarchy? What are advantages? What are disadvantages?
Cheers
Udo

Dear Udo,
it is completely possible to build a chart of accounts in BFC without using the hierarchy rollup functionality. For your information, until the (recent) release of the IFRS starter kit, the previous SAP IFRS/French standard was not using it.
In my opinion the account rollup functionality is really optional, particularly if you are using BFC for statutory consolidation only. Seting up the functionality is more time consuming, and the benefice for end users is rather limited. Indeed you can use retrieval characteristics in order to obtain similar result in terms of account sub-totals for your financial statements. And the people in charge of consolidation generally prefer to use flat balances when they need to analyse figures in detail. Moreover if you really want to use all the possibilities that offer the hierarchy rollup in the schedules, you need to design specific reports with hierarchy-based initialization.
The account hierarchy rollup can be interesting for management reporting where users want to easily retrieve key P&L or balance sheet agregated figures, for Excel link files (sub-total accounts can be directly refered to), for Analytics (where the drill functionality is only meaningful with hierachy rollup), when you have lot of intermediary sub-total levels (saving the creation of numerous sub-characteristics) or if you have to manage two charts of accounts (eg.: detailed for year-end closing and agregated on a monthly basis).

Is it Possible to budget check the posting of GR without account assignment category

Hi,
Is it Possible to check the posting of GR without account assignment category....
Regards
Purna

Hi Raja,
I may agree and I may not agree with it.The availability control checks only in the case of an increase in the assigned value-see Note 783161.Also check Note 46209, 69362
( For Ex 1. inclusion of tax code in MIRO will give rise to assigned budget hence AVAC action.)
Also,excerpts from Note 1424698:
The availability control is active against the overall budget for an order. The overall budget amounts to USD 1,000; assignments have not yet been posted:
Current Budget
Assigned
Overall
1000 USD
0 USD
The tolerance limits of the availability control are defined in such a way that if there is more than 100% budget depletion, the system should issue an error message:
Transaction group
Activity
Usage
++ (all)
3 (error)
100%
A purchase order of 700 EUR is posted. At the time of the purchase order, this is converted to 950 USD. The
assigned value is updated accordingly:
Current Budget
Assigned
Overall
1000 USD
950 USD
However, for the goods receipt of 700 EUR that follows later, the exchange rate has changed and an actual value of 1,050 USD is posted. The assigned value is updated, but no availability control checks are performed, which means that there is a budget overrun:
Current Budget
Assigned
Overall
1000 USD
1050 USD
Note the following: If desired, the availability control checks can also be performed for goods receipts or service entries, which differs from the SAP standard system behavior - see Note 696362.
Example 2 (Excerpts from Note 783161)
In the Customizing for the tolerance limits, the following is determined:
Business transaction group 01 (Purchase order):
-> No tolerance limit determined
Business transaction group 04 (Financial accounting document):
-> Error for 100% budget depletion.
For an order, the availability control is executed in the controlling area currency USD. The budget of the order relevant for the availability control amounts to 1000 USD.
A purchase order is posted amounting to 900 EUR. This amount is converted to 1100 USD in accordance with the exchange rate applicable at the time of the purchase order, and is assigned to the order. This is possible because the availability control does not respond when you post the purchase order (no tolerance limit determined for business transaction group 01).
As a result, there is a valuated goods receipt also for the amount 900 EUR. This amount is converted to 1150 USD in accordance with the exchange rate applicable at the time of the goods receipt. The purchase order commitment of 1100 USD is replaced by an actual value of 1150 USD. As a result, the assigned value increases by 50 USD. However, since goods receipts are excluded from availability control checks in the standard system (see Note 46209), no error message is issued from the availability control despite the specifications for the tolerance limit of the business transaction group 04.
As a result, there is an invoice receipt also for the amount 900 EUR. This amount is converted to 1120 USD in accordance with the exchange rate applicable at the time of the goods receipt. The actual value, and thus also the assigned value, is reduced by 30 USD. Despite the specifications for the tolerance limit of the business transaction group 04, the availability control does not respond because the assigned value is not increased (but is reduced).
(Remark: If availability control checks are also executed during the goods receipt (unlike in the standard system) as a result of the user exit described in Note 696362, the availability control would have already issued an error message when the valuated goods receipt was posted.)

Material PR transfer from ECC to SRM without Account Assignment

Hello,
When a material PR without account assignment is transferred to SRM. The scenario is determined as direct procurement and system will behave in extended classic scenario.
I would need the PO to be posted in backend ie Classic scenario.
We are in SRM 7.0 using SOA PR transfer from ECC EHP 4 system.
I believe there is consulting note available for this scenario. If any body has the note number please share it.
Thanks,
Rohith

Symptom
While running Materials Replenishment Planning (MRP) purchase requisitions (PR) will be created in SAP ERP (e.g. after creating a Planned Order in MD10).
Before SAP SRM 7.0 these requisition got the field EPROFILE assigned which enabled the system to extract the PR document to SAP SRM by using report BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER. As of SAP SRM 7.0 and SAP ERP 6.04 you configured Business Add-In ME_REQ_SOURCING_CUST to trigger SOA message PurchaseRequestERPSourcingRequest_Out.
After running MRP you notice that no sourcing request SOA message got generated.
Other terms
SOA, MRP, Sourcing, external sourcing,
BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER, EPROFILE
MD10, MD14, MD04
Reason and Prerequisites
Program error.
Solution
Due to complexity it is not possible to provide a SAP core correction. However PP-MRP application provides a BAdI interface that gives the possiblity to trigger this functionality of external sourcing.
If you need to use the external sourcing with SAP MRP create a new implementation for BAdI MD_PURREQ_POST and inherite from the class provided in attached correction instruction.
Note 1546980 - MRP PReq: PurchaseRequestERPSouricingRequest_Out not send
1263876 - SAP SRM: Configuration of Procure-to-Pay Scenario
Note 1504247 - ME54/ME55 does not trigger sourcing SOA message
Note 1436550 - Multiple PR scenario PurchaseRequestERPSourcingRequest_Out

Re: "Item category K can only be used without account assignment"

Hi,
while creating PO from PR the following error is coming.
"Item category K can only be used without account assignment"
How to solve this
Regards,

Hello,
Item category K cannot be used with an account assignment as the goods are not physically used in the company. The stock is stilla consignment stock and belongs to vendor. Using an account assignment will book the cost in the company's expenses.
use an account assignment if required when you transfer from consignment to own stock.
Hope this helps,

Account detemination possible at sales order level

Is revenue account detemination possible at sales order level ? When I created the sales order and checked account detrmination analysis, most of the screen is blank. Is it expected to happen at sales order level ?

Hi,
Account determination should take place at billing doucmnet level.
Sales order doesn't give you the idea of how much did you sell to the customer.actual sales comes into picture when yu receive the money from customer after the billing is done.
Accounts will be hit at the time of PGI but those are controlled from the configuration of valuation class which you put in your material master.
Reward if it helps.

Need info on a version of iTunes that lets you download album artwork without account?

i need info on a version of iTunes that lets u download artwork without account?

There is no "version" of iTunes that let's you download artwork without an account. However, it's simple to search online for the artwork by using the album name. Amazon is a good place to start.
Simply copy the artwork and paste it into iTunes by selecting the complete albuum and clicking File/Get Info and pasting into the artwork box. I usually use pictures that are 300x300 pixels.

Is direct GL account entry possible via EDI invoic message type?

Is direct GL account entry possible via EDI invoic message type? Is there a field in Invoic Idoc that matches the direct GL entry field. Some vendors may have surcharge other than tax and unplanned delivery.

This functionality is not available as standard. However, from release 470, you can use customer exit EXIT_SAPLMRMH_015 for direct posting to the G/L account or material account.
Please have a look at attached note 427137.

Enter the document number,Company code and Fiscal year and Enter the Reversal reason.
Enter.
After this complete your billing document.
Create a new accounting document using VFX3 T.Code.
If your accounting document has clearing document then reverse and reset it using FBRA T.Code.
