At the time of passing entries user debit account in one business area and credit another account
in other business area.
e.g.,for passing telephone expenses payment following entries passed.
Telephone Expenses  Dr. Business area  9120
To Bank  Cr.  Business area  9210
Because of above creates difference in business areawise Trial Balance.
Pl advise.

Hi,
Execute the balance sheet adjustment run.  This is under GL -> Periodic processing ->closing -> reclassify ->Balance sheet adjustment.
It is a multi step process.
Read more about it here: [Balance Sheet Adjustments|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/EN/5f/1fadef4aee11d189740000e8322d00/frameset.htm]

  • GL accounts with no postings are appearing in Trial Balance

    Hi Experts,
    When the Trial balance is run by selecting the below parameters in 'Trial Balance Report Selection Criteria':
    1. 'Hide Accounts with No postings'
    2. 'OB from Start of Company Activity'
    The G\L Accounts having no postings in the posting date selected and having transactions entered before this period are displayed in the Report.
    However, in the General Ledger Report with similar selection criteria, the same G\L Accounts are not displayed in the Report.
    As stated in note 1632198, the system checks for the data from the beginning of the company activity and doesn't take into account the posting dates selected in the selection criteria. It is also stated that this behavior is the current system definition.
    So, please I would like that SAP changes this behavior and I believe that it will make more sense that the system considers the specific year selected in the posting date.
    Thank you in advance.
    Nadia.

    Hi,
    The system logic is different for the General Ledger and the Trial Balance. Both the reports have different reporting requirements, Trial Balance being the display of the balances and opening and closing while Trial balance being the detailed output of the transactions happening during the F.Y. selected.
    For having the zero balanced accounts not appearing in the Trial Balance, check whether selecting 'OB from start of Fiscal Year' helps you any way.

  • Business Area : Diff between Division & Item Division

    Hi,
    In SAP we can determine business area with 3 diff rules.
    Oner is through sales area (Sales. OrgDist channel Division) second one is by plant and item division.and the last one is through Sales orgdist ChannelItem division.
    Can any one tell me what is the difference between DIVISION and ITEM DIVISION ?
    Regards
    debasish

    Debasish,
    First, it should be clear about what is "Header division " and "Item division".
    Header division
    In the create order screen , we enter a order type e.g. OR and our Sales area.
    Suppose our Sales area is 1000/10/00, then this sales is copied to the header data and called as Header sales area also.
    The division here is called "Header division".
    Here ,header division is "00".
    Item division
    Any material is uniquely belong to only one "Division",which we maintain in the material master in the "Basic data 1".
    This is called "Item division".
    When you create a sales document ,system searches this item division and copies it to the sales document,which you find in the item detail.
    Now,coming to your question.
    In the , Sales document type, you have these two check boxes, "Check division" and "Item division".
    If the Item division field is not activated ,then system will not search the material master to which division the material belongs to. In this case the header division is copied to each item.
    So while you process various related errors will come.
    The check division field controls how the system will behave if the header division & Item division are different.

  • Balance sheet for business areas

    Hi
          Currently we have implemented 10 business areas and in oby6 we have enabled the business area statements, clearing accounts in OBXM are configured.
    We have posted transactions into different business areas. Tired generating the BS on business areas but nothin is getting generated but on the whole company it generates.
    Can anyone please suggest. Its a lill urgent.
    Thanks

    To be able to generate business area financial statements, the following prerequisites must be fulfilled:
    First, you need to assign G/L account line items to business areas. This is not always possible during document entry, for example, when posting to the reconciliation accounts for payables or receivables.
    The data must have been updated in the general ledger transaction figures for each business area <b>and</b> financial statement item.
    The overall balance must be zero for each business area (only for the balance sheet).
    Program SAPF180A reads the marked documents, calculates the adjustment postings required, and updates these in its own database tables. A second program, SAPF180, reads the adjustment posting tables and on this basis posts the accounting documents required.
    Are these done?

  • Missing last GL account code in system Trial Balance report

    Hi,
    Customer is using 2005A PL23. They are using standard Trial Balance report in system to display Trial balance. Example, there is 10 GL account codes display on screen but when print preview, the report only show 9 GL account codes instead of 10.
    May I know what went wrong? They are using standard Trial Balance(system) PLD without doing any amendment.
    Regards
    Thomas

    Hello,
    this has been an issue in the past, but it has been fixed in newer patches/versions.
    The issue occurs when you have chosen 'hide titles' for your trial balance. If you cannot upgrade shortly, please contact SAP Business One Support, as there is a workaround available that I wrote about nearly 2 years ago. You will need to log a message under the SBO-GEN-PLD component, and ask the processors to use the keywords 'hide titles total row' to search for my workaround.
    Kind regards,

  • How to create Business Area..

    Dear FI Guy,
             I am a ABAP-er, I would like to create a business area for assigning to create my new plant.I want some information about business area and step by step process of creating the Business Area.
    Please Guide Me,
    Thanks & Regrads,
      Dhanush.S.T

    Hi Dhanush,
    Configure the SAP Business Area
    The functions of business area is to create balance sheets and profit and loss statement below the company code level.  It functionality can be duplicated using Profit center accouting.
    OX03 - Creation of new Business Area
    New Business Areas can be created anytime in the Enterprise structure in the IMG.  However, in the year of creation, no comparison can be done with the previous year data as the Business Area did not exist in the previous year and there are no postings in the previous year.
    After create the new Business Areas, new G/L accounts should be created for :-
    Sales
    Cost of Sales
    External Process Cost
    Consumption
    Material Change
    Purchase
    Cost of Difference for Production
    Factory Output for Production Order
    Next create a default account assignment to maintained the link for cost center and business area.
    Transaction OKB9
    Enter the Company Code and Cost Element
    Cocd      Cost elem.      Acct assignment detail
    Enter the details as per business area/valuation area
    BA     Cost ctr
    Guess the above helps.

  • Business area-payment

    Experts:- If one company code making the payment for the two business area, at that time balance sheet, is tally or not (intererviewr says) is not tally,
    why what is the reason. this is my client (can u give ur ideas for this question
    And aslo if the business area,is making the payment 2business area,what are the entries comes, and give that entries, ( assinge immdiately points)

    Hi,
    This depends on specfic scenario. If the payment is against the invoice which has BA mandatory then its possible to have BA P&L B/S tally. But the invoice does not contains these two BA's or contains only 1 BA then P&L B/S wont tally.
    Again Company Code and BA's are independent so on a whole cocd P&L B/S will always tallys but in the case of BA P&L B/S, its little bit tricky.
    Thanks,

  • Financial statement by business area

    hi,
    Has anyone encountered implementation of running balance sheet by business area and it only balances at company level but not at business area level?  What are the likely causes and rectifications?
    I noticed we cannot post a reclassifcation entry where we debit from BA1 and credit to BA2 as the balance sheet adjustment posting will balance it.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    The objective of business area is to get the financial statements for internal reporting purpose. So at the business area wise it has to balance the line items, other wise it cant be called as balance sheet.
    The objective of company code is repoting to the external authorities i.e in India as per the comapanies act 1956 all the registered companies must submit the financial statements. The company code level financial statement includes the transactions posted at the business area level also.
    For the internal reporting you can use either business area or profit center.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Trial Balance - Account Balance

    Hello All
    Can any one please tell what is Accu.Debit & Accu.Credit in Trial Balance when i choose Account balance option. and how these values are calculated
    Thanks in Advance
    Sandeep

    hi Sandeep,
    here I'll try to explain it with example,
    Consider the account of Raw Material.
    The account has an opening balance of Rs. 10,000 (Debit Balance)
    during the period for which u are preparing the trial balance you will be having some transactions on the same account. Purchasing raw material amount will the debited and payment against it will be credited to the Raw material account.
    Consider the debit amount to be Rs. 10,000 and credit amount be Rs.5000
    Thus the trail balance for the Raw Material account will be as follows.
    Raw material account
    Opening Balance-- DebitCreditAccu. DebitAccu. Credit--
    Balance
    10,000--10,000500020,0005000--
    5000
    -(Debit O.B)--
    (O.B + Debit) -
    (Accu Dr - Accu Cr.)
    Hope i am able to clarify it now.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Business area Vs profit centre

    hi,
    can any one tell me what are the main differences between business area and profit centre.

    Hi Shanker
    Business areas are used in external segment reporting (over and above company codes) based on the significant areas of operation (for example, a particular region, a branch, product lines) of a business enterprise. Financial statements from business-area wise cannot be drawn up for commercial and tax law. Business area reports (e.g balance sheets and income statements for specific area) are used only for internal reporting purposes.
    Profit Centres on the other hand are internal areas of a company that the responsibility for achieving target profits or productivity goals.
    The objective of BA is more for reporting purpose whereas PC allows to analyse areas of reponsibility & to delegate reponsibility to decentralised units.
    Thus PC are basically treated as companies within a company & ensures effective control.
    I hope this helpls.

  • Chaning business area in asset master

    Hi gurus,
    Can we change business area in asset master? is there any customizing or transaction?

    Hi,
    If you want to use the "Specify Time-Independent Management of Organiz. Units, in asset accounting under Master Data tab, please read the following SAP Notes:
    SAP Note 193233 - Changing organizational unit in asset master record
    SAP Note 162247 - Error AU133 or additional line item with transfer
    SAP Note 210278 - RW022 when changing organizational units
    Furthermore:
    Purpose:
    If we want to use Time-independent management of organization units, the system manages the  rganizational units 'business area' and 'cost center' (and thereby 'profit center') as not time dependent in the asset master records in this company code.
    Advantages:
    Any change to these organizational units during master data maintenance then automatically generates a transfer posting document.
    Disadvantages:
    If the indicator is not set, you have to create a new asset master record (only in case of business area change), and manually transfer the entire asset, when the business area changes.
    Points to be considered:
    1. This method will not change the asset number. However, it will not keep track of the transfers.
    2. If you set this indicator, and then change these organizational units in asset master data maintenance, the system replaces the business area and cost center (and profit center) in all existing time intervals by the new assignments.
    3. After that, it is no longer possible to report on these organizational units for past time periods in Asset Accounting! This applies even if you later remove the indicator!
    4. In short we will lost track of any type of past reporting on business area/Cost center.
    Recommendation:
    You should only change the standard setting when ALL of the following apply:
    1. You do not need a history of the time-dependent assignments of an asset to a business area or cost center.
    2. You create business area or profit center balance sheets.
    3. You expect to make frequent changes to the assignments to business areas or cost centers.
    Thanks
