Business Area field should not get translate while doing allocations in co

Dear All,
In ecc 6.0 when we will be allocating expenses through assessment and Distribution the system credits sender cost center and debits receiver cost center,the same will be applicable for Business Area also.
But my client is having plant =business area for which they are making financial statements business area wise.
The client wants its business area not to get affected by above allocations ,Is there any method of restricting costs to remain in same business area and not getting translated to another business area.
Example :                    cost center           profit center           business area
expenses                      1011                   1001                     101
allocation from cctr to cctr 1012 which is having pctr 1002 and business area 102
expenses                      1012                   1002                       102
So my requirement is the system should not update business area 102
Thanks and regards

Hi Vijay,
Profit Center is derived basing on Assignments. If you have assigned a Profit Center in the Cost Center Master
Data, obviously for whatever the postings that take place in that Cost Center, will be posted to Profit Center also
(Statistical).
In your case, Cost Center 1011 and 1012 have been assigned to different Profit Centers 1001 and 1002. So,
conceptually what the system is doing is correct.
You want to restrict the postings to happen to Business Areas. I suggest you, this is not problem of
stopping/restricting the transaction postings but You have to restructre your Cost Centers and Profit Centers.
It's rather a Business Process / Structure change required than technical requirement in the system by restricting
the postings.
Pls revert back for further discussion...

Accounting document not getting generated while doing the GR

Hi,
We have created the stock transfer for PO with 2 plants in same company code. Then created the delivery & then done the goods issue in VL02n. Then we have done the GR in MIGO.
But we are note getting accounting documents aganist GR; where as we are getting accounting documents against goods issue document.
Why this is happening ??? How can I get accounting documents in GR???
Thanks & regards,
Pradip

Hi,
Please see the following details from SAP Help regarding GR for a Plant to Plant STO with shipping :
Goods receipt in the receiving plant
Once the materials arrive in the receiving plant, the plant posts a goods receipt for the delivery. The stock in transit is therefore reduced and the unrestricted-use stock is increased.
At goods receipt posting, a purchase order history record is created automatically.
Since the material has already been assigned to the receiving plant for accounting purposes, on goods issue, only a material document is created on goods receipt, no FI document. The stock situation in the supplying plant is not affected by the goods receipt.

Work area field value not getting populated in table control grid.

Hi all,
I am currently facing an issue where I have declared a variable and have fetched the workarea field name in it. To be exact, the variable contains the workarea name whose value I am finally populating to the table control. Now although the workarea name when manually copied and pasted in field name in debugging mode exhibits the value of the it, Im unable to fetch the same value in the variable as I have only the work area name in it. I need the value of the workarea-field to be in the variable.Please provide your valuable suggestions for this issue...

Hi Nabheet,
Please consider the below example...
DATA: l_var(30) TYPE C.
CONCATENATE 'wa' '-' I_FIELD2-NAME INTO l_var.
The i_field2-name contains the name of a custom table field CP_CUSTOM_GRP. So now the l_var contains wa_cp_custom_grp.
Now consider the wa_cp_custom_grp has a value 'BA'.
Now my issue is the l_var contains wa_cp_custom_grp but not its value(too obvious)... Would like to know whether is there a way through which the value of this wa_cp_custom_grp 'BA' could be populated to the variable l_var...

Business Area Field-Blank

Hi All,
While creating asset master record, the business area field should be set as blank instead of default. Anybody can guide me how to do that?
Thanks and regards,
latha

Hello Latha
Proceed as follows:
IMG>Financial Acctg>Asset Accounting>AA lean implementation>Organisation structures>asset classes> Specify required entries for asset master record
Now choose the layout for asset class for which you do not want BA
Click on logical field group
Choose Time dependant data and double click on field group rules
Check business area and choose the radio button as optional
lastly remove the check box against the "Copy" button
Save
Repeat process for all the asset classes
Reg
assign points if useful

Change Business area field

The business area field has not picked up the BA for some documents. Can the business area be input in the field of the already posted document.
The field status of the BA at GL, Account group, posting key level has been made as optional.

And most important activate Business Area FS in company code settings (T001)
Company Code > Enter global parameters
Cheers

How to Update Business Area Field in Posted Document?

Dear All,
Pls tell me how to update Business Area in documents which are posted without entering Business Area field. Pls tell me how to achieve this without using Validations & Substitutions. Any table entries can be maintained for this? Kindly guide.
Regards
Abhijeet

Hi,
I think, you need to post mannually if you have the list of documents posted with out business area.
ex:
1.Before posting of accounting entry as below, you should deactivate business area component in OB65 againest your co.code
2.Post accounting entry as below
40 123456 without business area 100
50 123456 with business area ABC 100
3. Goto T.Code: OB65 activate the business area component.
4. After posting of accounting entry like above you should run transaction F.5D and F.5E again, make sure that above entry not come again while executing F.5D.
First you can try this process in dev client, if you are comfort with this process then follow the same in quality and production.
Note: You can do this transactions in production client, only when there were no users working on the system.
all the best

Prasad

Error - Server file should not be empty- while uploading Text files in RAR

Hi,
We are uploading SU24 text files but we are getting the error "Server file should not be empty" while uploading the Description files in RAR 5.3
We followed the same naming covention and also used UTF-8 format for the text files. We placed the file in our Desktop as well and tried uploading into RAR - but still the same error is being thrown?
Are we missing something here?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Srihari.K

Hi and thanks to the answers so far.
I forgot to mention some points :
- I'm using forground import
- we are trying to use RAR to run risk analysis on non-sap systems as well as SAP (single or cross-systems).
So the file I'm trying to upload does not come from a SAP backen, but was created from scratch.
However the data in the files are coherent (and I compared with a SAP extraction, the format is the same)
here is a sample of the file I try to upload : (an that is actually what I'm trying to import as a test file)
sap_auth.txt:
OEITIAC     GTIAC     SEL     1
OEITIAC     GTIAC     MOD     1
OEITIAC     GTIAC     INS     1
OEITIAC     GTIAC     SUP     1
each element (ACT/PRM/FLD/VAL) is defined in the sap_desc.txt file that I loaded first (without error).
note that each column is separated by a single TAB (with an empty column at the end of each line).
each line is terminated by a CR/LF
I tried UTF-8 with and W/O BOM

Characters not getting translated correctly

I have written code that basically sends a URL to AltaVista's Babelfish translator, which translates the text that I send into whatever language I specify. In my case, I'm going from English to Spanish, translating the phrase "How are you?" When I get the result back, the special character of the "o" with the accent is not printing correctly. I'm getting garbage back in the stream itself. However, if I take that same URL and plop it directly into IE, it works perfectly.
Another thing that I have tried is copying the HTML that Babelfish creates with the correct characters into a text file, then reading that file directly into Java to see if it might be some sort of problem with the URLConnection, but the java still produces the garbage.
I have also tried to change my system properties to make it think that it is a Spanish locale, but still no luck. In addition, I've tried UTF-8 and UTF-16. It seems like it is reading in double-byte characters and returning the wrong byte for the special characters.
One last thing I tried was setting the "Content-Language" in the setRequestProperty() method for the URLConnection, but that didn't seem to have any effect.
Here is the URL that I building and sending:
http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr?lp=en_es&tt=urltext&intl=l&doit=done&urltext=How are you?
Here is the full code, sorry it's a little lengthy, but I thought it would help.
import java.util.*;
import java.util.regex.*;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
import java.net.URLEncoder;
import java.io.DataOutputStream;

class Translator {
public static String translate(String message, String fromto) throws Exception {
String messageHeader = null;
String translatedMessage = null;
String thisFromTo = fromto;
String[] fromTo = breakupFromTo(thisFromTo);
if(fromTo[0].equals(fromTo[1])){
return message;
if(message.indexOf("<") != -1){
messageHeader = message.substring(message.indexOf("<"),message.indexOf(">")+1);
translatedMessage = message.substring(message.indexOf(">")+1);
message = translatedMessage;
} else {
messageHeader = "";
translatedMessage = message;
URL transUrl = new URL("http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr");
URLConnection conn = transUrl.openConnection();
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setUseCaches(false);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
DataOutputStream printout = new DataOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream());
String content = "lp=" + URLEncoder.encode(thisFromTo, "UTF-8") + "&tt=urltext&intl=l&doit=done&urltext=" +URLEncoder.encode(message, "UTF-8");
printout.writeBytes(content);
printout.flush ();
printout.close ();
// Get response data.
DataInputStream input = new DataInputStream (conn.getInputStream());
BufferedReader binput = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
String str;
String buff = "message could not be translated";
while (null != ((str = binput.readLine()))){
Matcher matcher = Pattern.compile("^.*<Div style=padding:10px; lang=(.*)>(.*)</div>.*$").matches(str);
if(matcher.matches()){
buff = matcher.group(2);
buff = messageHeader + " " + buff;
return buff;
private static String[] breakupFromTo( String fromto) {
StringTokenizer t = new StringTokenizer(fromto, "_");
String from = t.nextToken();
String to = t.nextToken();
String[] fromTo = {from, to};
return fromTo;
public static void main(String args[]){
String str = "How are you?";
String thisFromTo = "en_es";
try{
String translation = translate(str, thisFromTo);
System.out.println(translation);
} catch(Exception e){}

I found my answer, I needed to replace this line
BufferedReader binput = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
with
BufferedReader binput = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream(),"UTF-8"));
And it works like a charm!

Making the Business Area field as editable

Hi
We have business area field as compulsory field for document splitting. The same is picking up on the Business Area assignment in SD. However, the field for the same is seen as greyed out field in Sales Order at line item level. we would like to make the same field as editable. How can the same be done?
Regards
Rahul Sharma

Hi
The fields in a sales order can be made optional / mandatory by following this menu path - IMG - S&D-> Basic > Functions-> Log of incomplete Procedures => select the fields > from the tables and the system will check for them (OVA2/VUA2)
To make a filed entry enabled or grey (non-entry allowed):
User exits in the program MV45AFZZ-USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION
This user exit can be used to modify the attributes of the screen fields. To do this, the screen fields are allocated to so-called modification groups 1 - 4 and can be edited together during a modification in ABAP.
If a field has no field name, it cannot be allocated to a group. The usage of the field groups (modification group 1-4) is as follows:
Modification group 1: Automatic modification with transaction MFAW
Modification group 2: It contains LOO for step loop fields
Modification group 3: For modifications which depend on check tables or on other fixed information
Modification group 4: is not used
The FORM routine is called up for every field of a screen. If you require changes to be made, you must make them in this user exit. This FORM routine is called up by the module FELDAUSWAHL.
Actually suppressing fielding sales orders userwise is quite easy. We are doing it in our company. For this we use userexit FORM USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION in MV45AFZZ.
Below is the sample code
IF SCREEN-NAME = VBKD-ABSSC.
AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT ZMV45AFZZ ID SCRFNAME FIELD SCREEN-NAME.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
SCREEN-INPUT = 1.
else.
SCREEN-INPUT = 0.
ENDIF.
endif.
You place the authority check object in authorization profile in the role of the users, who should have access to the field (in this case it is VBKD-ABSSC), and there assign the corresponding fields that are to be accessed via this userexit.

Ipad not getting charged while connected to the laptop

ipad not getting charged while connected to the laptop.

It's no different from the iPad 1 in that regard. When connected to a computer via USB it should charge when sleeping only. Hit the sleep button and leave it for a while to see if that works. It's much slower charging that way than using the actual charger.
Not all USB's are powered, or powered enough, so what the previous poster said could also be the case.

Assignment field is not getting populated in KSB1 for posting key 50

Hi All,
We are uploading entries thru excel in SAP.
For posting key 50 assignment field is not getting populated in KSB1.
But for posting key 40 it is getting populated correctly.
All setting (FSG, posting key details) are same for both the keys.
No substitution defined in SAP.
There is no issue for FBL3N for both the posting keys, only issue with KSB1.
Any idea what could be the reason for this?
Thank you.
Akash

KSB1 is CCtr report..
if it is revenue normally it will be treated as statistical posting in CCtr accounting- for the cost element when it is defined as revenue element.. - check Cost elements - whether it is Cost and cost reducing or revenue element--
possibility this can be one of the reason.
check and confirm

Excise invoice should not get created without PGI

Hi,
I have a scenario where the billing document is being generated by the customer without PGI after creation of outbound delivery for exports. (This is as per customer's requirement - Copy control maintained in VTFL for the same - copying requirements 11 )
This creates a situation - excise invoice can be created without PGI - which creates problems for customer. This should not happen.
Customer wants a check during the excise invoice creation - excise invoice should not get created if PGI has not been done.
Kindly advise as to how this can be done.
Regards,
T Saravanan

Dear Saravanan
Two options are there
- in your existing routine itself, you can specify the control in such a way that unless the preceding document is PGId
- apply excise user exits like J_1I7_USEREXIT_EXCISE_BEF_SAVE to achieve the requirement.
thanks
