Business Area being Populated in F-02

Hi Guru's,
While trying to post a document using F-02, I require to have one line with a blank in Business Area field while the other line is input with a value in Business Area field.
When simulating the document, the line which had a blank Business area is populated with the business area input on the second line.
Is this the standard behavior or is there a work around so that one line can be posted with a blank Business Area?
Pls. note there are no substitutions activated.
Thanking in advance.
Asiri

I am not able to understad your busness requirement.
It seems that you have checked the Busines area Balance sheet in your settings.
So when ever there is a BA in first linei item the system in herits this in the second line item. This is the standard behaviour.
What do you wnat to do without a BA in the second line item? What is your business need?

Business area not populating in Vendor line at the time of MIRA

Hi,
At the time of MIRA the Business Area is not appearing in Vendor line items.
Though the corresponding line items do have the Business area.
even in case we have one business are for the entire document the Business Area is not coming.
We are in ECC 6.0 but with classic ledger ( New GL not activated).
But instead of background invoice verification if we do MIRO the same document is populating the
corresponding Business Area in the vendor line item.
Please help me to resolve the issue.

Business Area not populating in Accounting Doc Post Division Change

Hello Friends,
Platofrm: SAP R/3
We created a new Divisions (06) and assigned them to the Material in Plant 155. A new business arae (PTIC)
was also created and assigned to sales are 0020 00 06.
Later we did couple of assignments (Enter Str>Assig>SD>) where we assigned business area to division - Plant - Sales Org
and Dris Channel ) .
Now to validate the changes I am posting a Sales order in sales area 0020 00 10 - to see whether the newly created business area is getting populated or not. Post sales order - delivery- goods issue and _accounting doc - in the accounting document
I dont see the business arae PTIC. Old business area (PTI) is getting populated.
I wanted to know whether Material is controlling the business area in accounting doc and where I am missing the link.
Our aim is to see business area PTIC in final accounting document so that we are sure that the material - whom we assigned division -06 is giving business are ptic.
Please assist and provide suggestions.
George

Hi,
Go to SPRO > Enterprise Controlling > Consolidation > Integration: Preparation for Consolidation > Preparation in the Sender System > Further Settings for Business Area Consolidations > Sales and Distribution
And check the below settings:-
- Assign Rules per Sales Area
- Assign Business Area per Plant and Division
- Assign Business Area per Sales Area

Business area not populated in Accounting Document

Gurus
Business Area showing in Billing document, item detail tab but not populated in Accounting Document BSEG/GSBER.
We have upgraded 4.5b to ECC6.

imdad

Hi:
This happens in instances if one invoice contains multiple business areas, then only blank space will appear in accounting document for business areas. If this is the case then invoice split should happen based on business area. Invoice split can be done through VOFM data transfer - billing document.
However if invoice contains only one Business Area then please check in IMG --> Sales and Distribution --> Basic Function --> Account Assignment / costing --> Business Area Account Assignment....check whether you have assigned the Business Area to Sales Area to Rule "1".

Business Area not populated for F110 but it works for FBZ2

Hi all Gurus,
I have marked my co code in OBY6 for Business Area Financial Statement. In GL a/c, I also marked the FSG to be "Required" field. For posting key field status, it set to "Optional"
During F110 auto payment run, the Business Area field was blank and without any update.
But if I perform the same for manual pymt posting via FBZ2, Business Area is mandatory field.
Please help to undertand the logic.

Posting intercompany items in FB01 (business area problem)

Hi guys,
Have you tried posting intercompany items in FB01?
My problem occured when i tried to post concur documents in FB01.
In line item1, i didn't enter a business area.
In line item2, i entered business area 0005.
I clicked simulation.
The business area in line item 1 is now populated with 0005.
When i debug the program, item 1's business area was populated because of OSS notes 566083.
I look for OSS notes that may solve this problem but i haven't found any.
I considered using the substitution exit that is called before simulation, but i'm afraid it might cause conflict in other modules!
Help.
Any suggestion is highly appreciated.
warm thanks,
navi

Hi Prabhu,
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts.
Yes, i ikow I can manipulate the business area's value in a substitution exit.
But the problem is, the OSS note was called after the line item passed through the substitution exit.
Meaning the filling-up of the BA happens after the program executed the substitution exit.
It could have solved the problem if the substitution exit comes after the OSS note but its not the case, so I really can't use that exit.
I search for another exits that occurs when simulation was ticked, but there's none.
I asked my functional to ask SAP for OSS notes that may solve this problem and I am also conducting thorough investigation in my end.
Do you have any other idea regarding this problem?
Thanks again so much in advance.

Report Painter - Business Area & GL Account Question

Hi All,
Here is the problem I'm attempting to solve. In the Rows we have all the inventory GL/Accounts and company codes. In the columns we have the Period and Business Area.
The issue the company has all of their postings in one company code going into a "blank" business area(long story here and we're attempting to get that changed). But in the meantime I have dollars in these blank business areas being captured along with another business area. For example we have BA identified as Parts & Service and Machines. I've set it up right now so that all blank business areas are captured with the Parts & Service column. Now comes the problem. There is one specific GL Account that should be captured under the Machine BA column. Does anyone know how to use a formula in a column to pull just the one GL Account under the blank business area. I could then create another column that adds the Machines column(that includes all the GL Accts) and the Blank column with just the one specific GL Account.
I thought I could do this with formulas in a column but I'm having difficulty getting it to work. I was hoping somone might have a suggestion on how to accomplish this task. Your ideas and help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Please double click on the cell in which you would like to have the specific value. You would be given options of selecting Characteristics with key figures. Select and do the needful.
You would get the desired value here. Thereafter you can either create another column or use the value such fetched in the same column and then hide the relevant row.
Hope this is useful.
Assign pts please.

Balancing field "Business Area" in line item 002 not filled- GLT2201

Hello Guys,
Balancing field "Business Area" in line item 002 not filled
Message no. GLT2201
We have defaulted profit center and Business area to WBS element. Document splitting is active. We have done PR, PO. Here WBS,Profit center, Business area is populated. And when we are doing MIGO we are getting error as "Balancing field "Business Area" in line item 002 not filled
Message no. GLT2201"
Earlier only profit center is defaulted to WBS element, there was no error.
Can anybody throw some light on this.
Regards,
SK

Hi
The error could be because of the following reasons:
1. The Business Area field is supressed
2. The assignment for Plant to Business area is different from the Business Area mentioned in the WBS Element.
3. You need to check the Splitting Characteristics and the Item Categories assigned for Material Document. The path for the same is :
IMG>Financial Accounting>General Ledger accounting (New)>Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Extended Document Splitting
Thanks & Regards

Business area is getting populated automatically

Hi, I came across a situation where some time Business area is getting populated automatically in some of the Maintenance order. I have checked the reference object, cost centre, Plant level, WBS element etc, we have not maintained the business area anywhere. Moreover, if I create the new order with reference to order having Business area, then also business area does not come into new order, but somehow in some situation it is getting populated. I want to delete this business area from the order as it is creating problem while posting of FI docs. We get the error saying reconcilation account not found for this .
Could you please tell me, what are the other sources of business area , from there it can come. .
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kale,
Make sure the field Business area is not supressed in tx. OB14. for the GL account in line item 001.
On the other hand, have a look to the note and kba below:

Kba 1727802 - Business area not getting populated in sales/ purchase tax

Business emails sent are being discarded from hotmail account, it's bona-fide, how do i register it?

Business emails sent are being DISCARDED (spam/virus - none present) when I send emails to my printer's hpeprint email address. I am sending them from my HOTMAIL account.
How do I go about stopping emails being discarded from printing from bona-fide email accounts?
Thank you,
Andy

Hi Andy, a couple of things to check :
When you're sending emails to your printer do you have any other addressees in the "To:" field? If so the service will reject these messages as spam. If you want to include other addresses on the messages use the BCC field
If you have opted to set the printers ePrint Settings to Allowed Senders Only, ensure the Hotmail email account you're trying to send from is included in that list of allowed senders.
Let me know how you get on.

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

ICR - Process 002 - Business Area

Hi Ralph,
how can I reconcile for business area in ICR Process 002?
In the standard table (FBICRC002A), there is not present field Business Area.
Can yuo help me?
Thank you so much.
Best regards
Giampaolo

Hello Rafael,
Here is some information about the "Standard Setup" for ICR. Depending on your individual requirements you may have to vary these settings:
Field Movement
Create a new field movement using transaction GCF1.
Receiver Table FBICRC002T
Sender Table ACCHD
Receiver Field Sender Table     Sender field
DOCDT             ACCIT_GLX        BLDAT
GSBER             ACCIT_GLX        GSBER
RACCT             ACCIT_GLX        ALTKT
RASSC             ACCIT_GLX        VBUND
REFNR             ACCIT_GLX        XBLNR
Note that this will result in the field XBLNR not being changeable any more. This is SL standard behaviour because this means that if you changed XBLNR in the original document you would not get an update of your SL copy of the document. If you want to be able to change XBLNR in the FI document you could leave sender field for REFNR blank and implement an exit populating the field with XBLNR when the document is first posted.
Posting Indicator
I recommend setting this to 3. You will have to build up the initial set of data at some point using GCU1N. And you also want new postings to be transferred.
Check independent of posting
NO! You should not set this indicator. This is only relevant if you set posting indicator to 2 and you have implemented e.g. validations.
Write line items
YES!!! You need line items as the basis for your reconciliation.
Required posting
NO! You should not set this flag.
Best regards,
Ralph

Business Area in 0PY_C02 cube

Dear Support,
I have designed number reports on cube 0PY_C02 , it is working fine last 2 years.
There is new reqirement of business Area in cube . My query is how to add business area in cube because this live cube on production.
1. 0BUS_AREA is coming in PSA & assigned up to info Source . Should i add one charcetristic in cube & change update rule.
or
2. 0ORGUNIT__0BUS_AREA is navigational attribute , but it is unchecked ( off) .Should i use is .
Because after addition of business area , i should not have any impact on previous query . & business area should be display for old also.
Regards,
Anand Mehrotra.

Hi Anand,
You can check with business if they are OK with the business are of 0ORGUNIT (which is navigational) or they want the one which is being populated as part of transaction.
If they are ok with the business area which is populated as navigational then you need to enable it at info object level and the also in the info cube level.
if its used in MP then make sure its also enabled and identified in the MP as well.
You need to collect the info cube and its transformations n DTP (if these get deactivated while performing this activity) in to New TR and transport it to production.
In this case there is no need for you to change the existing design and queries.
simply if business area is required in the queries you can add this and repair the queries.
second case :
If you are going to add Business area as a new info object to the IC dimensions then you need to change the Transformation, DTP and MP if any.
for this you need to drop the data and reload the data which i dont think business with suggest.
As per me check with business and take necessary action.
Regards
KP
