Business area is Inherited from debit line in MIRO

Dear All,
I have a question that after we have upgraded the system from R/3 4.7 to ECC 6.0, we found that when the invoice is posted against PO via transaction code MIRO, the business area of Debit side is Inherited to the credit side (vendor line)
For example:
In our R/3 4.7 environment. the invoice against PO is as below:
31 (CR) Vendor:123 (No Business Area)
81 (DR) Business Area:0001 Cost Center: A
But after upgrade, the entries become:
31 (CR) Business Area:0001 Vendor:123 (The business area is Inherited from debit line)
81 (DR) Business Area:0001 Cost Center: A
Do you have any suggestions, so that we can have the same behavior as R/3 4.7?
Thanks very much.
Sunny

Hi
It seems that you have document splitting active in your system and hence the system is deriving the Business Area from the debit line item. This is the correct way, as you may have multiple Business Area and he vendor liability should be splitted so that the financial statement are balanced at the Business Area level. If you still want to enter business area in vendor line item, while keying in the vendor invoice, you can do so. but in case, there are multiple business area in the invoice, you should also identify how the splitting will occur for vendor liability, if you enter, business area at the vendor line item.

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.

Move Business Area and EUL from one schema to another

Hi,
I need to take a EUL from the schema where it is now and bring it to another schema. I use Oracle Discoverer 3.1 Admin Edition to Export Business Area then import it in the new schema. Everything works fine except the fact that workbooks (.dis file) created in the original schema returns no data (as it does in the original schema).
Anybody can help ?

Hi,
There could be a number of reasons for this, but the first thing to check is whether Discoverer is generating the same SQL when the report is run in the two EULs.
If the SQL is the same Discoverer could still return different data if for example there were user specific conditions in the query or language specific conditions in the query and the default language was different in the EULs.
Are you using an Apps or database mode EUL? What is in the workbook query that you are running?

I had created subsitution rule in both FI and CO, OBBH and OKC9, which did not to default business area into the tax line.
In OBBH, it was overwritten by SAP standard to blank during debug, OSS explains that due to integration with other sub modules, it does not allow. In OKC9, since tax is balance sheet account, it does not work.
I had also tick "business area financial statement" in global parameter setting.
Could any gurus advise ?

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 postings in Tax line items

Hi Experts,
As we know that Business Area is not updated in the tax line items, In one our company code we have done BA adjustment through F.5D and F.5E in 2007, after that there are thousands of line items in the system without business areas, now my client wants a tallied business area trial balance from 2007 onwards or aleast to ensure that the tax line items should get business area assignments from hereafter, and also recently we have created one more company code, Please help how do I ensure that all the tax line items and items with blank business areas get the business area postings. Is there any user exit or any work around available for this... At present we have only one GL for Inter business area clearing for all types of accounts (reconciliation, tax accounts) in OBXM.
Please help...

Hello,
Are NewGL and document splitting active in your system? If yes, you should solve this problem with using splitting function.
Otherwise, you can use business transaction event 00001120.
I explained step by step how can you activate BTE 00001120. I give you message below.
Re: FBCJ - Cash Journal Transaction
In this exit, you must update t_bsegsub-gsber field which t_bseg-buzid = 'T' for tax item.
But you can not split tax line items in this exit. For example in invoice you have 2 or more business area, but tax line item doesn't create for each buiness area (If you don't use document splitting functon). So in this exit you can only assign a business area to tax line item which is automatically generate while posting FI document.

Missing business area in FG line item

Hi All,
We are starting a new company code that implements business areas. We've linked the business areas to our plants and division and also configured that the sales area picks up the business area from our plants and division. However, when we post outbound delivery through VL01N, the line item for Finished Goods account (in FI doc) does not get the business area. When we check the COS account, it has a business area. Only the FG account doesn't. Isn't it supposed to be automatically derived? Please advice what may be the cause of this and what we can do so that the FG line item would get the same BA. Thank you!

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.

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
