Business Area for Vendor Line Items during Payroll Posting

Dear All
We are in ECC 6 version of SAP. We are using Business Area for Internal Financial Statement. We are facing a problem with regard to Business area in Payroll posting. Business area does not appear in vendor line items when we make posting of payroll for multiple business area. We have setting technical accounts for HR. We read SAP note 203276 and it seems that it is possible. Can someone tell us what is the reason that business area not coming in vendor line item while payroll posting.

Hi
That part we have already done. The problem only come when we run payroll and there are vendors belonging to several business area in that case system keep the business area field blank. In case if we set field status required system give error. That is why we run payroll by each business area we also have maintained technical account for 1001.

Substitution of Business Area for Tax Line Items for Invoices posted in MM

Hi
We have one Business Area for every company code. A substitution rule has been created to populate Business Area in Tax Line Items, while booking vendor invoice. The substitution rule has been defined as
Prerequite
Company Code = 1234 and GL = 1323232
Substitution
Business Area = 6668
The system is working fine, when the Vendor Invoice is posted through FI. However, when the vendor invoice is generated through MIRO or MIR7, the Business Area is not substituted.
In Table VWTYGB01, we have maintained BSEG-GSBER as a field allowed for substitution with Boolean Class 09.
We have created the susbstitution rule for Text and Assignment also and the rules are working fine for all document posted through FI and MM

Hi
Business Area is a sensitive field, agreed. However, the substitution rule is working fine for FI posted documents and the issue is in MM generated documents.

Business Areas in SAP are used to differentiate transactions originating from different points/lines/locations in business. Let me give some examples to elucidiate:-
A company (say, ABC) is a huge company and has a variety of businesses under it. Let us say that it typically operates in 3 different domains like machinery manufacturing, trading and assembling of machine parts.
There are 2 options here now -
1. Either create different company codes for the 3 business operations (which would be the easiest and require no creativity)
or
2.) Create each of these business lines into business areas (the better option).
The advantages of using the second option is:
1. You can use these business areas if other company codes require the same areas
2. The configuration is simpler as in case of company code, you would require to go through the entire configuration of creating Chart of Accounts, Fiscal Year variants, posting periods variants and so on. In the business area option, you just need to attach it to the company code and the rest of the details in Business area is attached by default from the company code you are using it in.
3. Using the options in controlling (EC-PCA, Enterprise Controlling, Profit Centre Accounting), you can even draw up Balance Sheets and PL statements for your business areas and hence this is used for management accounting in some companies (like HP, Dell, etc) when it wants to know the operating profits for different business areas/lines.
The above was an example when the company wanted to separate entries according to the lines it operates in... the other case could be when it wants to find out profitability during its operations in cities and differentiates these cities into Business Areas...
Business Areas are not much relevant in FI but are much more relevant in CO.
You can define business area in
Path: Img-enterprise structure Definition--Financail Accounting --- Define Business area.
Same pathe: Assignment---Assign Business area to Consolidation business area.
Same Path: Logistics General --- Assign Business Area to Plant/Valuation Area & Division
I hope this clears.

Automatic Business Area Derivation Rule for Vendor Line Item in MIRO

Hello Experts,
We trying to use Business Area concept for our client.
I have completed all configuration setting for the business are derivation like
1. Creation of Business Area
2. Assign Business area to Plant / Division (OMJ7)
3. Business area determination from sales area (TVTA)
4. Business Area by Sales Area
5. Checked Field Status Group for Customer and Vendor Reconciliation Account
It is working for for compelete sales process and in Procurement cylce it is picking business for MIGO transaction both the line items.
But
In MIRO (Purchase invoice posting) it is automatically taking Business area to the GR/IR line item and it not taking Business area for the vendor line item (automatically)
I comes know that there is a business area derivation rule for this to happen automatically.
Can you please propose the soulution for the automatic derivation of business in MIRO for vendor line item.
Regards,
Chalapathi

Hi,
I do mot think there is a BA derivation rule for MIRO.
The best you can do is:
1. Use a user exit or enhancement point for deriving the BA from the GR/IR line and populate that in the vendor line
or
2. You make BA as a mandatory field in the field status group for the vendor reconciliation account. This will then force the user update the BA. We use this option. This is so because at times, the vendor item may need a different business area than the GR/IR line.
Cheers.

T.code required for Vendor line item display and Customer line item display

Hi Gurus,
Pl provide me transaction code for "Vendor line item display and " Customer line item display apart from FBL1n for vendor and FBL5n for customers.
Kindly advise.
Regards,
Samar

Hi,
You could use these, for example:
S_ALR_87012103 - List of Vendor Line Items
S_ALR_87012197 - List of Customer Line Items
Just curious: what's wrong with FBL1(5)N?

Multiple vendor line items during IR with different withholding tax status

Business scenario: During IR, several vendor line items are being processed, some are stock materials, others are service materials (using material group). Only the service materials are subject to withholding tax.
Problem: Since the withholding tax type/code is maintained at the company code level of the vendor master, it is not possible to select only the service materials as subject to withholding tax.
Has anyone encountered this problem before? if yes, please advise solution adopted.
Thanks.

I think through condition type / condition record, you can reduce the amount payable to the vendor and post it to another GL account. But if you do not update the amount in the W/tax base and w/tax amount, you will not be able to use standard reports of w/tax. May be condition types can be used to do the calculation of w/tax amount and w/tax base amount. Build the logic in the interfcae of e-invoice and SAP to update W/tax fields in vendor invoice.

Business Place & Business Area in VAT Line item in MIRO

Hi Gurus,
I want to defualt the following values in the VAT line item in while doing MIRO.
1. Business place in the "VAT line item" to be defaulted from the "Vendor Line item".
2. Business area in the "VAT line Item" to be defaulted from its relevant "Material / Expense/ GR/IR Line item".
The same thing i have done in FB60 transaction by using a BADI. But the same BADI is not working for MIRO.
What the BADI does it goes and updates the BSEG table for the fields "Bupla (Business Place) & GSBER(Business Area).
But while doing MIRO the BSEG table is not called at all and hence the BADI which is used earlier is not able to update the fields and hence cannot be used.
I feel the reason could be that while doing MIRO the BSEG table is not called directly but it is called through a Function Module. In such case a BADI will be required which will call the relevant Function module.
Need your help in how to update the VAT Line Item's Business Place & Business Area in the MIRO document.
Will award points if issue is resolved or if your answer is useful.
Rgds
Prasad

Hi
Try using substitution maintained in FI.Transaction code OBBH.
Maintain the prerequisite based on the Transaction code.
Copy the same logic used in BAdi for the exit created.
We have used this for similar type of requirements

Full data load for vendor line items 0FI_GL_4

Hi Experts,
i need to delete the data from the vendor line items cube and load all the historic data from r/3 production, so how do i proceed, i am assuming that there is no setup table concept for this since its FI, so how do i do this and what are the steps that needs to be done on r/3 side as well as BW?
Thanks,
shetty.

Its pretty simple in FI. There are no setup tables like LO extraction.
1. Double click ont he cube in BW and delete all the requests. make sure all of them are deleted. (or) you can right click on the cube and say "delete data".
2. As youa re working on production make sure ur requests and data are completely deleted. Check twice
3. Activate your master data.
4. replicate datasources and activate transfer structure in BW
5. Load data from BW
I would think twice to delete data from a cube particularly in production. I don't know your situation but if I were u, I would create another cube copying the cube and then load all the R/3 data into the new one.
Good luck.

Profir Center Update for Vendor Line Item

Hi,
While entering an inter company document, cost center is required field for the expense line item. The system is picking up the profit center based on the cost center. However, while saving the document I am getting a error message that you can not post to profit center XX in company code 2. The profit center is only assigned to company code 1 (KE52) and it is not to be assigned to company code 2. Ideally the vendor line item should be assigned to dummy profit center maintained in config but system is picking the profit center assigned to expense line item. The following entery is being passed and the document type is AB. Document Splitting is active.
Expenses A/c. Dr - company code 1 - PC - XX
To Vendor            - company code 2
can anyone help me with the same?

Hi,
Validations are in 3 steps (Mostly Inter-company transaction fetch this validation in sequence)
1) Derivation Rule
2) Default
3) Dummy
Option 1:
T-code: 3KEI
setup default profit centre by company code and GL Account
if above does not resolve your issue then also setup option 2
Option 2:
Create substitution rule on document completion level
If G/L account is (B/S) XXXXXX u2013 XXXXXX and company code is 2
   then PC = 2
End if
try first in test system

To Insert Header Field for Vendor Line Item Display FBL1N

Hai All,
I got a requirement that i have to add a Header item in the standard Tcode FBL1N. The client requirement is to add the Balance Carry Forward Amount Field in the Header level of the Output display.
I have inserted the Header Text in the output display by going through Settings =>Layout => Current Header Rows but iam not able to pass a variable to that pertaining output text.
Pls provide me the solution regarding ....

Please note that most vendor line items wont have a PC assigned to them.
I am not sure if you are refering to classic view or new GL data.
Anyway you can use the sum button, and sub total for your levels.
If you want to get the information sub totalled by PC, then I guess you are using the new GL and document splitting.
If that is the case you cannot use FBL1N for this.
There is however a set of reports in Accounts Payable, called new Gl reports and they will provide you the general ledger view and not the entry level view, and you can use the sum and sub total option.
Please award points if this is useful.
Come back if you need further help.
