We have dicided to create a new CCD and trsansfer all the AR/AP open items of this perticulat business area in old CCD to the new ccd and business area. We also want to transfer the Asets into the new CCD by retiring them in old ccd. Please advice on the measures that needs to be taken in these processes. Also, the fisical year for the New ccd is going to be different from the old one, in this case what are the effects on the transfers and loads and exchanges rates and etc..
Please advice. My e if needed: aravind_s2k at ya***com

Hello,
I want to discuss with you about Business area so let is go:
Business areas are primarily used to facilitate external segment reporting across company codes
So from this sentences it is mean that you can assign more than one company code to one business area and there is another thing, that Business is defined on the Client Level not on the Company Code level.
There is another useful task from Business are that you can create Financial statement on the Business area level BUT
Financial statements at business area level are therefore only suitable for internal reporting
To be able to create financial statements, the data has to be updated in the general ledger transaction figures
I hope that it will help,
Regards
Hussein

Customisd err message at MIRO - Business area V/s company code validation

Hi experts,
We have simple validation for company code V/S Business area check in place ,
While doing MIRO system throws error for a particular company code and Business area
combination the set error message ( customized - Business are does not match with company code)
This validation has given as a sub node (step) of another consolidation trx. types against GL validation (that was in place earlier, thats why)
But when we do through F-02 (Journal entry ),F-43(vendor invoice), F-22(customer invoce) for the same combination system passes the entry !!!
what may be the cause ?
the error message is the standard one set -251 this message is custom created at Validation (GGB0)
Business area doesnt belongs to the company code
Message no. /ASU/GENERAL251
One more thing Noticed
The Material PO is a account assigned (K) cost center and the
cost center Business area is 1003.
In PO plant is 1003 and i checked the MSEG the plant shows 1003
But in Logistics assignment the Business area 1001 is tagged to Plant 1003
not THE BUSINESS AREA 1003 !! . I mean at plant/valuation area to Business ara configuration
the valuation area 1003 is assigned to Business are 1001 not to Busienss are 1003!!!

Copying new company code and G/L's-how to put in Quality server?

Hi
We have existing system and we are creating new company code by copying from existing company code along with G/L accounts using --Copy/edit/delete company code action.
Once this is done in Development server how do we transport this in to Quality and production servers?
Is basis help required or as a functional consultant I can do if so how?
regards

Hello,
Through STMS you can import.
However, there should clear segregation of duties. I would expect a basis consultant should do the imports into QA or production or a centralized team.

Why is business area assignment to co.code, not required

why is business area assignment to co.code, not required

Hi
You can define a business area in <b>OX03</b> (SPRO>Enterprise>Definition-->FI)
And now if you want to assign this business area to your company code, you can do so in configuring the global parameters <b>OBY6</b>
It all depends on how you want to assign your business area. You can also assign all the balance sheet accounts and P&L accounts to a business area.
Well, in the configuration, business area field would have been optional in the field status group; thats why you might think that its not required.
Hope you got a picture what I am trying to say; if not, explain us your exact problem, will be forwarding the right answer.

Special GL or new company code

Hi Experts,
We are on ECC 6.0 but new GL is not activated.
Currently there is a India company code but operating under US GAAP, now they want to roll out and use local accounting standards.
Options are
1. create new special ledger or
2. create new company code for statutory purposes while retaining current company code for India for U.S. GAAP reporting
Which option will be more beneficial if the long term plan is to migrate to NEW GL
Thanks,

Hi,
In your environment the Special ledger is a better option. If you are creating new company code, same transaction you have to enter in both the company codes it will require more man hours.

How to get new company code and controlling area in SRM

Hi SDN,
we are on SRM 5.0.
Our finacial experts want to implement a new company code and controlling area.
In SRM I can set up a new company code easily in ppoma_bbp and import a new plant from backend for the new company code.
When testing in EBP I get the error: "company code xyz not available in controlling area zzz"
So I need to import the new backend controlling area, too. How can I get the second controlling area in SRM?
Thanx for help,
matthias

Hi Muthuraman Govi and Sanjeev,
in fact I can see in backend in transaction KS03 (show cost center) there in the F4s, which comp.code + controll area combinations are valid and have indeed cost centers assigned.
So I have a new valid comp.code and a new valid cont.area.
The new comp.code belongs to the new contr. area.
In SRM I set the BUK attribute as described by Sanjeev (I had that already done). Still, if it is like you say, why do I get an error in EBP when trying to buy products from the new plant in the new company code...
Is there any more config.work necessary in backend or SRM?
kind regards, matthias

Impacts of new company code currency

Hi Gurus,
We have a company code which is setup 2 months back. We have it setup with USD and this company code is assigend to a controlling area in one -one basis. So it should be fine . But now business want to change the CCode currency. All G/L and master data is created with USD. What would be the impacts if we change currency of master data also into new currency? We have no New-GL . We used special ldgers but just for a specific activity.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks,
GB

Hi GB,
If there is no transaction data posted in your company code then you can change the company code currency and in GL Mater data. But if transaction data is already been posted then its better to create new company code with new GL Master data and currency setting and upload transaction data posted in last two months.

Extend a customer to a new company code (IDoc DEBMAS06)

Hi,
I'm experienceing problems when I try to add company code data (segment E1KNB1M) and sales data (segment E1KNVVM) to an incoming IDoc of basic type DEBMAS06. The customer is to be extended into two company codes and correlating sales areas.
I have implemented notes 802008 and 895885 and now I get the error message "No batch input data for screen SAPMF02D 0310" when I check in WE02.
I have narrowed down the problem to billing details on sales data. The problem is that the field account assignment group (KNVV-KTGRD) is emptied on the last run of sales data processing. The value is there earlier but then vanishes mysteriously. Has anyone a tip on how to get around this problem?
I would most apprechiate any help in this matter.
Best regards,
Fredrik Skild

Now due to expansion of business we have extended our business to one more location. So.now are planning to use 3 company codes.
Now I want to know the following things:-
1. What are the things that are to be done before creating these two additional company codes?
2. What will be the impact of these new company codes on the existing company codes?
3. How the present reports can be used for the new company codes?
4. How the GL balances will be uploaded for the new compny codes?
5. How the master data will be created for the new company codes?
6. What will be the impact of the new company codes on other modules like MM, SD and HR which are already in use?
Please guide me on the above issue co months of experience.
considering the fact that I am a fresher in SAP FI and I have
only 8 months of experience.

Vikram sairam

Hi Vikcy,
Company Code is legal Entity and core component in FI.
Now u r planning create new company codes, just check below:
01. Chart of Accounts:
- You may use existing chart of account for new com. code
02. Controlling Area:
- Check the feasibility of cross company code controlling or not. If you maintain one:one relation in existing controlling area, u need to create new one.
03. SD: Core component is Sale Organization. U need to assign them to ur Company Codes. So check accordingly.
03. MM/ PP: Plants and Purchasing Organization need to assign to Company Codes.
Hope it will give you idea on a whole to plan, how u need plan to go ahead.

Venkat

Hello,
1.Which is the simplest&best way to create new dummy comapny codes?
Copy from the existing company code
IMG ==> Enterprise Structure ==> Definition ==> Financial Accounting ==> Edit, copy, delete, check company code
2.Is there any precautions we need to take when creating new company codes,so that exsiting company codes functionality is NO WAY disturbed?
If you company in a proper way, it wont disturb your existing company code, unless you disturb existing config.
3.What settings I need to make for bank statement upload?
Manual Bank Statement Upload: IMG ==> Financial Accounting ==> Bank Accounting ==> Business Transactions ==> Payment Transactions ==> Manual Bank Statement
Electronic Bank Statement Upload: IMG ==> Financial Accounting ==> Bank Accounting ==> Business Transactions ==> Payment Transactions ==> Electronic Bank Statement ==> Make global settings for electronic bank statements
