Change A/C Assignment in Invoice item (Ref: Q4-2)

Dear Sirs,
To let A/C Assignment of an invoice item changeable when executing Invoice Verification using MIRO, there must be two conditions as below u2013
1) No valuated goods receipts are defined for PO
2) A/C Assignment is allowed to change for A/C Assignment Cate. in customizing
However, how to change settings for the above two conditions ?
Many Thanks,
KH Fong

Dear Sirs,
Thanks for your reply.
For Condition 1 - No valuated goods receipts are defined for PO, I could then change the A/C Assignment ("K") in Invoice item after inputting "Multiple A/C Assignment" in PO item to let the item become "GR Non-Valuated" and executing GR for the item. My question is that is "Multiple A/C Assignment" the only way to let the PO item become "GR Non-Valuated" ?
For Condition 2 - A/C Assignment is allowed to change for A/C Assignment Cate. in customizing (Maintain Account Assignment Categories), is it controlled by the indicator - "AA Chgable at IR" ? For example, the indicator is checked for "K - Cost center".
Tks,
KH Fong

Changing account assignment at invoice receipt (MIRO/MIR7)

Hello gurus,
I have got two questions concerning changing the account assignment of a PO item at invoice receipt.
Example: We have a PO item with account assignment category K and non-valuated goods receipt. Now, after GR, we receive the invoice and want to post it using MIRO.
During this process we notice that the correct account assignment category would have been A. In MIRO we can change all accounting information (apart from the account assignment category). So we delete the assigned G/L account and cost center and enter the correct asset master number in the asset column. Then we post the invoice.
Result is that the invoice is posted to the asset, the vendor and the tax account. So, everything seems to be ok, except that the account assignment category in the invoice document is still K.
Now, my questions:
1. Is it allowed to change the accounting information as described, even if that means that the account assignment category is u201Cwrongu201D afterwards? I.e. is this a standard process?
2. This works fine using MIRO, but when we try it to use MIR7, when posting the invoice there is a cryptic workflow error message (Message no. 00398) stating something like u201CPlaceholder for batch input error text, this message is not output. Please notify system administration u2013 Problem with S.u201C [sic!]
Any ideas on this?
Thanks in advance
Alicia

Hi Praveen,
no, there is no error in MIR7. But the invoice is not posted and the workflow shows the error message given in my original posting.
And the point is that I cannot change the K to A in MIRO or MIR7, but I can change G/L account, cost center, asset etc. So after I change it, I still have account assignment category K, but no G/L account and cost center given. Instead, there is only the asset number.
This looks a bit funny to me and I wondered, if this could lead to any problems, because something like that would not be allowed in the PO.
Cheers
Alicia

How to change the subtransaction of a transferred item in Invoicing?

Hello guys!
I have the following question and I hope you could be able to answer.
In Invoicing, we select all the open payment we received from a customer and we include them in the Account maintenance line of the Print document. In some cases the amount of the payments is higher than the amount of the consumption and this leads to a transfer posting of the amount of the overpayment.
For example:
received payments
================
100,00EUR
100,00EUR
100,00EUR
consumption for the billign period
==========================
150,00EUR
The transfer document will contain the following items/subitems:
====================================================
item      subitem         amount          clearing status      main transaction        subtransaction
0001           000      50,00EUR                                        0250                          0010
0001           001      50,00EUR                      9                0250                          0010
0001           000     100,00EUR                                        0250                          0010
My question is - is there an event which can be used to change the subtransaction for a subitem?
I checked and tested event R418 but it can be used to change the subtransaction only for an item.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Kind regards,
Mariya

Hi ,
First of all the Event R418 as you have mentioned have the structures FKKKO and FKKOP .
In FKKKO you will not get the sub item and in FKKOP you will get the sub itmes .
Before the process gets in to Event R418 it has only 1 line item and hence you are facing the problem .
If you have multiple line items getting in to the FM then you can build the logic based on the Import date that is passed in structure FKKOP .
Else try for the function module FKK_OPEN_ITEM_SPLIT , in R418 where in you can split the document if you are having only 1 entry in FKKOP.
Kindly check and revert back with your findings .

Error in characteristic derivation at the level of the invoice item when re

We are implementing the SAP project for just one small private medical Center which includes mainly outpatient cases in different medical Clinics (different departments in the same medical center) .For example: Radiology center/department, cardiology center Obstetrics center and so on.
We have defined each center/department as a different profit center.
Some of departments are subdivided to several medical organizational units; each unit represents a different cost center at the same profit center/department.
A case-based order (internal CO orders relating to a patientu2019s case) is created in the background when the patient is admitted
The same patient can get services from few organizational units (in ISH)/cost centers at the same visit/case and that's why it is important to collect revenue and costs at the same case based order. The revenue is posted to the case base order by using billing in the ISH module and the costs by internal activity allocation.
We have assigned IS-H services to activity types in Controlling; the services transfer to the case based order. CO-relevant services are posted from IS-H to cost centers in CO and within internal activity allocation, allocate them to the case-based order.
For example:
X ray service assigned to Technician minutes activity type.
Each X Ray service takes 20 minutes of Technician (Qty Cnv Facto=20 MIN)
The service transfer is preformed automatically at final billing.
We have implemented Case Costing Level 2 in order to analyze case costs in CO-PA.
We want to have the ability to derive the profitability analysis characteristics at the level of a line item in the case, for example: we want to define a service or the preformed organizational unit as a characteristic in PA.
We are not sure what the best feasible solution for this requirement is.
We investigated few alternatives:
1.     We have defined the case based order as real order with a settlement rule to a profitability segment. Revenue and Costs are posted to the cased based order and then settled to the profitability analysis. We eliminated this alternative because we didn't find any way to distribute revenue and case costs to PA between the different "line item characteristics" (for example: different services in the case).
2.     After eliminating the first alternative we tried to change the solution.
We have dealt with revenue and costs separately.
1.     Revenue: In the "configure revenue accounting" We flagged the Post to Prof.Segment checkbox, the patient billing module attempts to determine a profitability segment in CO for each invoice item and to post the revenue to it. The system determines the profitability segment using the characteristics of the patient and case data we defined.
We are using ISH_CHARACTERISTIC_* functions for characteristic derivation but we couldn't derive user defined characteristics which are defined at the level of the invoice item. (For example: billable service in the case or preformed organizational unit for each service.).We didn't succeed to it by using the ISH_CHARACTERISTIC_* functions.
2.     Costs:
We tried to posts case costs (internal activity allocation) directly to profitability analysis, this way we hope to have the ability to derive characteristic of the line item.
We know that when we use transaction: KB21N for internal activity allocation and we define two receivers, internal order and profitability segment- In case the order will be statistical the true posting will be to profitability analysis segment.
Therefore we have defined the case based order as statistical order.
We want to intervene in the automatic creation of account assignment lines by enhancement NHCO0001 IS-H: Create account asgmt. line during CO transfer.
The transfer program creates for CO-relevant services account assignment lines for Assignment rules.
But-We didn't find any way to do it, because the profitability segment object is missing in enhancement NHCO0001.
As an alternative we tried to use User-Exit in the profitability analysis valuation (transaction: ke4u) but also with no success. (Enhancement COPA0002).
Could you Please advice what to do,I didn't succeed in my ideas and investigations.
Thanks
Yael Jacobi
Controlling Consultant

HI Claudius
Thanks for your answer, I will try to discuss it again with my customer to understand weather he really needs/wants a profitability analysis on service level.
I processed also an inquiry within the Service Remote Consulting according , I will let you know their answer as well.
I have additional issue to discuss with you , please let me know wheatear you can help me.
There are internal service sales between different departments in the same medical center. For example: Radiology center/department sells X-rays services for the cardiology center. We need the ability to sell a service to a different department in a different price than to an external payer/customer/insurance provider.
Is it possible to implement profit center transfer prices along with the ISH_CO integration?,
How is it getting along with the posting of internal activity allocation when services transfer to Controlling?
At standard the costs are allocated (by means of internal activity allocation) between profit centers. The responsible cost center (assigned to the performing organization unit) is credited and the case based order (which is assigned to different profit center) is debited.
Is it possible to implement transfer prices in case the performing organizational units are connected to the same profit center? (because some of departments are subdivided to several medical organizational units; and each unit represents a different cost center at the same profit center/department).
Do you recommend defining a different profit center also for each sub-department?
Do you have any other proposed solution for this issue?.
Thanks,
Yael

Net Unit Price of Invoice Item Not Kept/Deleted

Hello everyone,
Yesterday I had an issue with a supplier invoice uploader I've created --- it uploads consistently which is nice, but for some reason the unit price is disappearing on me. I've got the following lines:
in which 'row.zItemNetUnitPrice' is decimal (currencyCode is always going to be GBP in this case, so I figured I didn't need it) and row.zAmountOrdered is obviously a Quantity type. Now, here's the strange part: when 'newSIItem' is created using siItem, the unit price is deleted --- as in, immediately after creation of newSIItem, the unit price is set to 0.00. But the amount ordered is kept as it was set. So obviously that's weird, and is causing all my invoice items to be created as zero price --- you'll agree that's not very helpful.
What's also strange is that, in order to remedy this I tried to just set the unit price to what I wanted AFTER newSIItem was created, as according to the repository explorer it's not read-only. This worked --- up until I set the account assignment type, at which point it got set BACK to zero as follows:
As you can see in the debugger, it says 'changing invoice price not possible...'. --- but the net unit price field isn't read-only. So my overall question is: what the hell is going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Attached is my entire mass-enabled AfterModify script and the XML file I'm using as part of a file input run on the custom business object to which this script belongs. Thanks!
Lewis
EDIT: I tried moving 'newSI.NetUnitPrice.Amount.content = row.zItemNetUnitPrice' to after the account assignment --- it seems it was invalidated by any subsequent command, even to the point that having it directly before setting gross amount to total gross amount would still not work. I also tried setting net amount instead of net unit price --- the debugger specifically told me that net amount is read-only. But the repository explorer says it has write access. Anyone able to shed light on this?

I solved this --- I noticed that I had siRoot.DocumentGrossAmountsIndicator set to false but creating the root node (newSI = SupplierInvoice.Create(siRoot)) turned that back to true again for no apparent reason. My guess is that having this set to true, i.e. all values are gross, dynamically sets all net fields to read-only. Once I discovered this it was as simple as setting the indicator back to false post-creation of the root node, and then net price fields were accessible again.

Do we have option not to refresh the data in AP invoice while copying from GRN and change the date of the invoice in SAP 9 PL 0

Hi
I have update tax details in GRPO but while copy to AP invoice system pick posting date/ document date as system date and if i change the date the screen refresh and the tax details i have updated it change. that i do not want.
Is there any option so that GRPO date will copy in ap invoice so that i need not to refresh the screen
regards
Ashish Garg

Hi,
Please provide an example for tax details. Make note on these,
1. Whenever copy GRPO to AP invoice, posting and document date is system date. This is default design system
2. If you change these dates in AP invoice, your payment to vendor leads to confusion.
For example:
You have received items on 25-03-2014. But vendor raised invoice on 03/04/2014.
Thanks & Regards,

Function module to retrieve the account number linked to an SD invoice item

Hi all,
I should retrieve the gl account number linked to a certain SD invoice item. The
program starts from VBRK and VBRP data. Is there a function module which
enables to get it starting from these header lines? I already used the function
module: RV_INVOICE_ACCOUNT_DETERM ( release: 4.0 ), but in some cases it
doesn't seem to function properly ( the export table TKOMV doesn't contain a
value for the SAKN1 field ). For the invoices for which the function isn't able to
retrieve the account number, the standard accounting analysis functionality returns
the following message: account determination carried out via KOFI type. So I'm
searching for a function module that's able to retrieve the account number in these
cases also.
Thanks in advance.
Adriano.

Dear Adriano,
Try with Function Module 'SD_DETERMINE_ACCOUNT_INVOICE '.

How to change the amount of Vendor Line Item in FB60

Hi all,
I want to post the invoice in SAP with FB60. The journal is as follow:
Dr. Expense    1000 USD
Dr. VAT-Input    100 USD
      Cr. Account Payable     1100 USD
But the problem, the amount of Account payable is 1000 USD. Because I want to fill the amount in vendor line item (FB60) with the original expense (1000 USD).
I want to ask, there is any configuration in SAP to change the amount in vendor line item which it could be the same with amount of the original expense.
If you ever have same problems, plase share with me
Thanks,
John

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. The result of posting invoice that I want is as follow:
Dr. Expense    1000 USD
Dr. Vat - Input    100 USD
Cr. Account Payable   1100 USD
When posting invoices in FB60, there is a filed "amount vendor line item" at the top. Usually the field is filled with amount vendor 1100 USD, but I want to fill it with the expense amount (1000 USD). Which can be show the account payable 1100 USD.
Is there any configuration to change the field "amount vendor line item" ?
Thanks,

PSM-FM-Reversal of funds management document after change in acc.assignment

Good day we recently went live with a component of Funds Management i.e. Availability Control on Cost centers and cost elements. We update BCS with the plan values and actual/commitment items in Finance/CO. We do our planning in CO.
The solution is working reasonably well but we have encountered a problem for which we are unable to find a solution. The problem is best illustrated with an example;
1. Create purchase requisition with Account Assignment Category "K" = Cost Center with transaction ME51N
2. Account assignment = cost center and cost element. A funds management document is created upon saving of the transaction.
3. Purchase Req. is released with a release strategy (transaction ME54N)
4. After purchase requisition release the account assignment for the cost element is changed by the user. This occurs sometimes during the execution of the business process.
5. When a purchase order is created with reference to this purchase requisition with transaction ME59N the system references the original funds management document which means when the account assignment was changed the funds management document was not reversed and a new funds management document created for the changed account assignment.
6. The BUDCON report transaction FMRP_RW_BUDCON thus displays the commitment under the incorrect commitment item as the change in account assignment is not reflected in Funds Management. We have a one to one relationship between cost elements/commitment items and cost centers/funds centers as per the derivation strategy.
My question is;
Is this normal standard SAP standard behavior or are we missing some configuration that will enable the creation of a new funds management document and if so where do we configure such? I must mention our solution is completely SAP standard.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Mike, nice to meet you.
I think u should do an entire test with TRACE on, and u will find the problem, and how to fix it (at FMDERIVE of course).
First: Have a look at note [666322|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/666322], go to FMDERIVE and turn ON the trace.
Then, run all the process ... from ME51N to the end...
I agree with Eli, u must allow overwriting of existing values at FMDERIVE rule...

Tcode FB15 - assign/clear open items

I was hoping get clarification on tcode FB15 (Assignment of Open items)
In what cases do I need to manually clear a AR document?
Maybe customer deposits?
For example, if I apply an incoming cash payment to an open invoice, does that gets cleared automatically? I checked the balance for the customer and green lights are on so I assumed this is the case.
when would I need to use FB15 to manually clear?
Thank you
Kate

Hi
If you are trying to clear vendor from MM i.e, from procurement process, first you need to authorize the particular purchase order in t-code MRBR then it allows you to clear the open item. Where these open items can viewed on FLB1N but you cant clear unless its been authorized.
If found helpful, please assign points.

Budget Exceeded error while changing in Account Assignment

Hi,
The user is facing an error while changing the Accounts assignment category to "Assets" in a PR. The PR was created with AAC as "U" for all the line items. The user is changing that to "A". After that he provides the asset number then the error is coming as below:
Item 010 Order 0809/A15 budget exceeded
Message no. BP604
Diagnosis
In document item 010 Order 0809/A15, budget for fiscal year 2010 was exceeded by 6,630.00 INR.
The valuation price for that particular line item is Rs 6630.00. I have not changed the other line items.
Need the suggestion.
JK

I think there some settings in Budgeting, n Finance people are more familiar with those settings. Normally, if u craete a Purchasing doc. PR or PO or GR/ IR from MM side, with account assnt., the relevant budget()which is created for that commitment item) will updated with the document value. There may be settings with delivery date or so. check with your FI guys

Assignment of Commitment items to G/L Accounts

Hi to All,
My name is samad farooq , currently we are have upgrade our system from version 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
In 4.6C, we maintained assignment of G/L Accounts to Commitment Item via transaction code FS00.
Now same has been maintained in ECC6.0 but it gives error no commitment item found for processing.
We can maintain using the derivation strategy (FMDERIVE), but as we have upgraded, is there any way to automatically system derive the commitment without mention all the data again by using the derivation strategy.
Thanking you all in Advance.
Samad Farooq

Hello,
commitment items are essential for the update into the Project Cash Management as the financial transaction which is maintained for the commitment items is used to identify the type of the posting (e.g. invoice, payment, etc). Further informations about the correct customizing of commitment items can be found in note 144169.
The assignment of commitment items to the value categories is similar to the assignment of cost elements or cost element groups to value categories and is needed for the proper update of the data from the Project Cash Management into the Project Information Database (table RPSCO). The Project Information Database is the basis for hierarchy reports. So in case that this customizing isn't done, values from the Project Cash Management might not be shown or might be shown incorrectly in the hierarchy reports (e.g. 31CASH, 31FIM, 31FIMA, 31FIMB).
Assigning one commitment item to all value categories can be done. It is depending how detailed your reporting should be, but from point of the reporting it won't make sense to mix for example commitment items for outgoing payments with commitment items for incoming payments.
Kind regards,
Dirk

A/c assignment category and item category fields purpose

what is the importance of account assignment category and item category fields in po(me21n).what is the impact of that fields.

Hi,
Account Assignment category is a vital field in purchasing document & has many control functions and helps in determining the object that will be charged in case of an ordered material which is procured for direct usage or consumption. By using the
account assignment category in the purchasing documents the cost of the material can be apportioned to a single Controlling object or it can be apportioned among various Controlling objects.
The account assignment category determines:
a.The nature of the account assignment
b.Which accounts are to be charged when goods receipt is posted
c.Which accounts are to be charged when the incoming invoice are posted
d.Which account assignment data you must provide
Item category is vital field in the purchasing documents & has many control functions and helps in determining whether an ordered material:
a.Requires a material number
b.Requires an account assignment
c.is to be placed in stock
d.Requires a goods receipt (GR) and/or an invoice receipt (IR)
In addition to the above it is also used for differentiating the different types of procurement processes and the types of stocks including special stocks available.
