While posting f-36, I am crediting collection charges too. when simulating, the debtor acct for collection charges is not picking up profit centre, and i am landing up in profit centre error. following is the entry:
DR        s debtors (BOE) 10000 (automatic profit centre thru system)
Cr        discount charges      100 (profit centre given manually after simulation)
DR        s debtors (normal)    100 ( no profit centre)
CR       s debtors (normal) 10000 (automatic profiit centre thru system)

Advantages of segment reporting and document splitting

Hi Experts,
Please provide the advantages of segment reporting and document splitting. and also please share any configuration document relating to this.
Thanks
Chandana

Hi!
Segment is a business sub unit for internal reporting purpose. This ensures to give a performance report in terms of money on particular segment. Profit center need segment in their master data. If you want a different segment than profit center segment, you have to implement BAPi with the help of ABAPer to get the derived segment.
Document splitting means to split up the line items for selected dimentions (Ex: Profit Centers, segments etc). You can split up a single line items with multiple line items for desired reporting purpose.
You have to follow certain steps at IMP to configure this.

Clearing items with New GL and document split

Hello gurus,
When clearing 2 items with opposite amount and the same account assignment, the system generates 2 clearing items for the same account whereas I am expecting to have a clearing document without any item (as it is wotking without document split)! In such situation there is no reason to enlarge the credits and debits into the Balance sheet.
Has anyone of you already faced such situation and have any solution for me?
Thank you in advance for your help
Best regards
Pascal.

Hi Abhijit and thank you for your first answer,
I agree with you if more than one segment is used into the same posting but in my case there is only one segment !
I think that this logic is applied for technical reason as explained into the OSS note N°950773.
Does any one of you have a genious solution for me or know whether SAP has changed his standard solution?
For french customers this technical postings are not acceptable since debit and credit variations has to be functionaly justified...
Thank you in advance for your help.

SRS and Document Splitting

I have to do some changes in the document splitting configuration, and I know this may be quite risky after go live, so I want to be sure I am choosing the best solution.
Here is the story:
My customer is a retailer in Canada, so the sales process is happening in POS and in SRS/SAP.
They have one GL account for sales discount. This GL account is mapped with the item category cash discount in document splitting.
For POS, they are using a document type linked with the business transaction 0000, so the system is able to make the splitting. But, for sales from SRS, the document type is mapped with the transaction customer invoice, so the system will never be able to split using cash discount item category. All the billing documents with discount cannot reach FI, due to the error u201CItem category 40100 in accounting transaction 0200, variant 0001 is not allowedu201D.
I know that changing the item category is not a solution , since I have many postings on this GL account, and changing the assignment of the business transaction to the document type is also risky ,or maybe even impossible.
My idea was to create a new GL account for sales discount in SRS (P&L account), map this one with the item category revenue, change the account determination for all the condition types for discount used in SD, and reprocess all the billing documents already posted, and allow the new ones to create the FI document.
Please let me know your opinion, or if you see any impact or risks.
Thanks !

Document splitting not happening in New G/L

Hi
I have done all the below settings for document splitting.But still document splitting is not happening for vendor.For example,I am posting the following entry.
Using FB60 Tcode
Cr Vendor 100
Dr G/L       60   (cost center 1)&(Profit center 1)
Dr G/L       40   (cost center 2)&(profit center 2)
when simulating I am expecting vendor entry also to be split and shown as
Cr Vendor 60 (profit center 1)
cr vendor 40 (profit center 2)
Dr   G/L    60
Dr   G/L   40.
But it is not spliiting Vendor.It is showing vendor as 100 but splitting the 60&40 to the ZERO balance clearing account( as configured in ZERO balance clearing account step.)
why is vendor split not happening/Is there any thing I am missing?
Config steps done are as below.
The Steps to follow are:
1. Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting
2. Classify Document Types for Document Splitting
3. Define Zero-Balance Clearing Account 4. Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting
5.. Activate Document Splitting
thanks

Hi thanks all.
Sorry,I am new to new G/L concept and document splitting.Can you please check my following settings and confirm if they are fine.(I am doing in plain IDES system).
1.Financial accounting(new)>G/L accounting (new)>Business transaction>Document splitting>classify G/L Accounts for document splitting>>
I have classified G/L Expenses accounts which I am using under tcode FB60(for simulation of document splitting) with category as 20000 u2013expense.Also I have given Vendor reconciliation account under category 01000-balance sheet account?
Please clarify how the G/L accounts classified here?
2. Financial accounting(new)>G/L accounting (new)>Business transaction>Document splitting> Classify FI document types for splitting.
Many standard documents are defined.But I thought since I am using FB60 tcode it used doc type KR so mentioned mentioned transaction as 0300 and variant as 0001 -Vendor invoice
3. Financial accounting(new)>G/L accounting (new)>Business transaction>Document splitting>>Define ZERO balance clearing account
Here standard system has account key 000(standard account for ZERO balance) with PK40/50 and G/L account for my chart of accounts is mentioned.
4. Financial accounting(new)>G/L accounting (new)>Business transaction>Document splitting >>Define splitting characters for G/Lu2019s
Here I have mentioned Profit center field (ZERO balance ticked)&mandatory field ticked.no other fields defined.
5. Financial accounting(new)>G/L accounting (new)>Business transaction>Document splitting >>Edit constants for non assigned processes
Here I have added my controlling area and left profit center field as blank.
Please check above settings and suggest me if I am missing any thing?All I am trying to do is post a simple test entry using FB60 and show the document splitting based on just profit center.

Change Document splitting rule

Our company has been live with the new GL and document splitting for 3 years. The original splitting rule was set to split on the Business Area. However we would like to change the rule to split on Profit Center instead of Business Area. Is it possible to change the splitting rules without adversely effecting the system?

Hi Michael,
There is no harm in discontinuing the active rule but activating the inactive rule is really a big deal and SAP doe recommend this because it has potential threat. See below example.
Only Business Area active as Document Splitting rule.
Invoice was posted where there was profit center not populated for some reason and system did not give any error since it was not active field.
Now you activate profit center as document splitting characteristic
You clear the invoice posted above, system will give error like Document Splitting: Item for clearing not found which is irresolvable by the way of confguration change for which data has to be migrated using cockpit and that has to be done under SAP's Consultancy only.
If you want activate Profit Center as a Document Splitting Characteristic then go ahead but do not select it as a Mandatory Field

Segment reporting with document splitting

Hi Experts,
We have implemented newgl without segment reporting and document splitting. we do not implemented other functions like AP, AR and AA and all. without having with modules is it useful to implement segment reporting with document splitting?
If it is useful both are useful or only one.
before implementing this what are the things that we need to check or can i directly configure this two
for segment reporting
1.Define segment
2.entering the segment in profit master data
These two configurations are sufficient or would they require some more configurations help me in this...
and for Document splitting
what are the steps that we need to before configuring the document splitting
Thanks,

Hi
Thanks for your reply
We have Normal new gl configuration, parallel accounting and foreign currency valuation and In co we have cost centers and profit centers related configuration also. these are all we have in my client.In this situation can we implement segment reporting and document splitting.
And we draw the financial statements profit center wise.
Now is it helpful to implement segment reporting and document splitting.
if so what are the things that we need to check to implement this and what are the steps that we are going to do to configure this.
Please help me is this beneficial or not

Document Splitting error - in F-90

Hi
I am posting asset transactions in F-90.
Its giving error for profit center (document slitting). I have entered cost center in the asset master. Also the setting ACSET and document splitting is activated.
However this error is given only for company code 2000 and not other company codes (which have same chart of account, same controlling area, etc).
I went to simulation and i checked in expert mode. I saw that there is no profit center population in "base line item" But cost center is there in asset master and profit center assigned to that cost center.
So i do not know what can be the error.

Hi:
To avoid this error you should check the following settings
a...Check for Cost Center in Asset Master Data,
b..Check Cost Center Master in KS03...the one maintained in for asset you are facing error . if profit center is updated or not in it. If it is not maintained then update it in KS02. Alternatively you can also maintain settings in OKB9.
In IMG path Financial Accounting->Asset Accounting-> Integration with the General Ledger->Additional Account Assignment Objects ...make sure profit center assignment is activated.
c...Check in OBC4 the for asset GL FSG profit center should not be suppressed
Check the OSS Note 1464301 . It also contains the solution to the issue you faced.

Simple Finance with NewGL document split

Hi Gurus!
With the "S for Hana" appraoch I am wondering if Simple finance includes NewGL Document split combined reporting views?
Will I be able to analyse my line items including FI & CO dimensions before and after GL document split?
In other words, is simple Finance able to give access to BSEG, COEP and FAGLFLEXA? in the same view?
I am also not sure about the reporting tool giving access to these views: I know for sure that Hana live will give this access but would I be able to access these combined views with other reporting tools like ECC querries (SQVI), standard ALV reporting (FAGLL03...)?
Thank you in advance for your help,
Best regards

Pascal,
NewGL features available in sfin depends on whether new GL was activated in FICO before the migration to sfin.
If you're migrating from FICO with new GL and document split activated, then the behaviour will be the same in sfin as before.
If you're moving directly from classic GL, there are limitations on the new GL features in sfin: There is no document splitting (to be delivered in the roadmap in Q4) . If you wanted documents split now in sFIN, you would have to migrate first in new GL, activate the document split, and then migrate to sfin.
In sfin v1.0, BSEG, COEP and FAGLFLEXA remain as table. This will however change in v2.0.
In sfin 1.0, there is a logical FICO document, but still 2 physical documents remain. As well, this will evolve in v2.0.
Finally, regarding reporting, some transactions have been replaced by Fiori apps. When this is the case, the transaction is no longer available, and you get a pop up window inviting you to go to the Fiori launchpad. Otherwise, the access to the old transactions remains. With the delivery of the newer versions of sfin, more and more transactions will move to Fiori.
Hope it helps,
Arnaud

Business Area and Profit Center In Document Splitting

Hi,
We are using Business area and Profit Center characteristics for document splitting.
In one transaction, the Business area and profit centers are defaulted through the cost center.
The document is successfully split in respect of the business area, but the profit center is not filled, thereby giving error while posting.
Please suggest.

Hi,
Actually, we have all three scenarios, profit center, segment and business area..
As suggested, we have checked all field status relevant.. profit center is optional in all cases..
Now, Pls consider the scenario without business area in document splitting characteristics..
If I post an expense, profit center is picked thru cost center and segment thru profit ctr. The vendor or bank line item inherits the characteristic values from the previous line item.
Now, in addition we have business areas in doc splitting characteristics.
Business area, again is populated thru cost centers, along with profit ctr and segment.
The business area gets correctly populated in the vendor line item.. but the profit center doesnt.
Please let us know the reason..

Problem with document splitting and zero balance clearing account

Hi SAP Gurus,
We've already configured the document splitting functionality in our project, however we still encounter some issues with the outcome of posting documents. For some scenarios, the document split functionality seem to work. Below is such example
Scenario # 1
Entry View:
40 Expense (cost ctr 0001)
31 AP
GL view:
40 Expense (cost ctr 0001)
31 AP (cost ctr 0001)
However, whenever 2 GL items are included in the document, the document split functionality acts differently.
Scenario # 2
Entry View:
40 Expense # 1 (cost ctr 0001)
40 Expense #2 (cost ctr 0002)
31 AP
GL view:
40 Expense # 1 (cost ctr 0001)
40 Expense #2 (cost ctr 0002)
31 AP (no cost ctr assignment)
40 Zero Balance Clrg (no cost ctr assignment)
50 Zero Balance Clrg (cost ctr 0001)
40 Zero Balance Clrg (no cost ctr assignment)
50 Zero Balance Clrg (cost ctr 0002)
I was just wondering how come the AP item did not split accordingly to the cost center indicated in the entry view. Can anyone please assist me on this one? Thanks in advance and best regards.

Hi Milind,
Thanks for the reply.
I've done the below configuration and assigned cost/profit center update. It now works for profit center split. It still does not split accordingly per cost center though.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Financial Accounting (New) > Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) > Ledgers >Ledger > Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers
In the below configuration, cost center is not an available option. Unlike the profit center which is available here.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Financial Accounting (New) > General Ledger Accounting (New) > Business Transactions > Document Splitting > Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting
The profit center split looks fine now, however the cost center split still is only reflected in the expense items and not on the AP item.
Any ideas on how to actually split the AP line items according to the cost center assignments ?

Seeking Solution to document splitting error once and for all

Dear Sir / Mam,
While posting with clearing or while account clearing,
Frequently an error pertaining to document splitting gets triggered.
As a result clearing cannot be performed and the document cannot be posted.
Every time we deactivate document splitting, clear the document or account and again we activate document splitting.
We wish to have a report that shows all the open items lying in the system that was not posted with active document splitting and further migrate it so that we do not get this error in future.
Please guide me as to:-
1. How to list all the open items that was not posted with active document splitting (Either through any report or table)
2. How to migrate these document.

Bank statement and bank clearing document splitting

Hi,
We have main bank and bank clearing accounts classified as cash category.
Our bank statement uses a Z document type that posts transactions such as:
- debtor to main bank
- vendor to main bank
- expense to main bank
- revenue to main bank
Thereafter, the bank clearing that is done between main bank and bank clearing account (so a cash to cash rule is needed based on the GL account classification)
We needed to use an unspecified posting rule to cater for the bank statement posting as the standard did not allow us to add vendor, debtor, expense, revenue as base item categories. But it doesnt allow us to add cash to cash.
How should we configure document splitting to cater for this?

Hi ,
First of all i hope you are clear with the concept of Incoming , otugoing and main bank account that we need to create 3 or more diffrent bank accounts for reconcilliation purpose .
the case here is that you cant to do a manual statement upload then in that case you will have to take care of following things .
How is the information transferred from FICA to FICO means along with the reconcilliation key what else information are you passing on to FI in the documents .
Secondly in the bank statement are you getting the reconcilliation key ??? or what information are you getting in the bank statement ???
because the integration of FI and FICA is the reco key and it becomes very crucial for you to have the same in the bank statement .
thirdly , Use the manual reconcillaiton functionality provided in FI for reconciling the same , where in you will have to configure the manual bank statement functionality and by using the T code ff67 you can reconcile it .
Hope this suffices the prupose .
Do revert back in case of any other queries .
cheers ,
