Chart of Accounts out of order

Hi Guys,
I have encountered this issue with several clients, where the chart of accounts got rearranged in such a way that the accounts got mixed up. The change log is grayed out (inactive) so we can't determine if there is any user who edited the chart of accounts. We believe something triggered the change, we just need to identify the cause. I have seen another issue like these posted on the forums but the last update on that thread was 2008. I hope you guys can help.
Thanks,
Kaoru

hI,
You can trace out this with Transport request.
In fact we can not change chart of accounts directly in production system be cause it is configuration step.
when did you find the dis order of chart of accounts?
Based on that date you can get the TP request and check with whom ID TP was created.
Thanks,

Sudden change in structure of Chart of Accounts

Hello ...
One case has been presented in more than one occasion. It is as follows:
The accounts of Level 5 of the Plan of Accounts overnight changed to level 2 staying active. The origin of this event is unknown, it speaks in other posts that the case has been reported to SAP but without a definite answer about the why it happens and how to fix it.
In fact, the solution is to re-offered to manually update the accounts to Level 5 ... which in cases where the Chart of Accounts has many quite conflicting accounts.
The questions are: there will be some way to get a little more detailed answer to why this occurs? ... And is it the only option to reorganize the entire Chart of Accounts (Chart of Accounts Edit option), the manual mode?
Thank's

Chart date out fo order

Upgraded 10g to 11g. Most graphs are displaying correctly however have 1 chart that the dates are out fo order, though there is a sort on the calendar ID. I have a field called calendar ID with data such as 201101 = 2011 Jan and 201102 = 2011 Feb. If I view this in table view it shows correctly, but as a chart starts at like Jun 2001 then Aug 2011, etc. Is this a know bug or a easy fix?

Right click the chart > select "Chart Expert" > "Data" Tab > Select the "On Change Of" field > Click "Order" button > select "in original order". Your group will be in right order now.

Line Chart in Infoview Dates out of order

Hi,
I have a report that works fine on the desktop but when it is run from within Infoview, the date range in the X axis of the line chart are no longer in order.
Any ideas how I can correct this?
Thanks,
John

Hi John,
What are the versions (along with any fix packs if any) of the following:
1) Crystal Reports designer
2) BusinessObjects Enterprise
Also, could you try changing the Viewer Type for Crystal Reports? If it is set to Web (No downloading), try changing that to ActiveX.

DTW Chart of Accounts error

Hello Exports
Thanks for all that you do for us.
I am have difficulty DTWing new, additional Chart of Account information into an existing database. I have searched the forum and found several posts, but nothing seemed to address my particular issue.
As I understand, CoA information requires only 3 columns: AcctCode or FormatCode, Name and FatherAccountKey. So as a test, I've only included these columns. All of my lines at this point fail with the following error
Enter Valid Code Application-defined or Object-defined error65171
I am wondering if part of the problem is the DTW template for CoA. The template from SAP has the following column headings:
FormatCode.....Name.........FatherAccountKey
_FormatCode.....AcctName.....FatherNum_
I've been told by our consultant that the template is incorrect and that the column headings should be identical, i.e.:
FormatCode.....Name.........FatherAccountKey
_FormatCode.....Name.........FatherAccountKey_
I have tried to import the data both ways, and they both fail with the same error message.
Again, thanks for everyone's help.

Thanks to everyone who replied with help. I actually spent 3 hours this morning on the phone with Zal Parchem, who helped me figure out the problem. In lieu of points, he requested that I just buy him a beer. Problem is, he'll probably make me buy it in Germany. Now that's an expensive beer!
Solution:
1. I needed to include the Code (AcctCode) field as the first column and fill it ordinally (line 1 = "1", line 2 = "2", etc). DTW will automatically covert this to the proper "_SYS" number.
2. Account segments needed to be set up in the chart of accounts. This one confused me a bit. I already had the CoA segmented. What I didn't do was to set up the new segment code under Admin/Setup/Financials/Account Segmentation. You need to click on the row header of the appropriate segment in order to enter this information.
3. Apparently, the requirements for the import file has changed somewhat: It use to be that both column headings were required to be the same. With the new version of DTW, the templates are formatted with the DTW fields on the first line and the SAP fields on the second line. In older version, you had to have both lines of column headers be the same. Apparently, you can do it either way in this version.
4. The template indicates that several fields require "tNo" or 'tYes" as the only valid values. This causes an error of "Data too long for field". Changing this to "N" or "Y" worked.
5. The template indicates that the field AccountType (ActType) requires "at_Expenses", "at_Revenues" and "at_Other" as the only valid values. This, too, causes an error. Instead, use "E" for Expenses, "I" for Revenues (Sales) and "N" for Other.

The music I sync into my iPod touch is all literally out of order and in the library it's not. Why is this?

I checked the starting time for songs in the library and on my iPod and they all say 0:00. What I mean when I say it's out of order is for example, the first ten seconds are skipped and placed somewhere in the middle of the song and some other parts are skipped then played later. I didn't have this problem before I updated iTunes for my new iPod, now when I tried syncing onto my old iPod as well, the same thing happens. So there's nothing wrong with my iPod. I want to know how I can fix this on iTunes or if it's just a glitch on my iTunes?

Something you can try is resetting it all Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Or go to Settings > Store & sign out & log back in. Another thing you can do is restore your ipod. This has happened to me but the only thing i did was that i created a new account but try doing the things above i just told you. :)

How can I Migrate a Segmented Chart of Account with DTW?

Hello.
If anyone could help me to solve this problem I would be most gratefull...
The templates installed in SAP Business One under the DTW folder do not include a segmented chart of account template, so I would like to know how can I transform (if that is possible) the standard model, or maybe find a way out, cause' the chart of account is pretty big and I have it all in a well defined CSV.
Thank you.

How to change chart of account to company code

Dear Guruu2019s
I am new SAP FICO . I got the following thread . I have configured the company code through copy the existing company code. Now I want to change the Chart of Account to this company code. I gone to T code OB62 from position go to my company code I changed the chart of account but while saving the file I got thread u201CReset company code data before changing the chart of accountsu201D
How to go further could anybody explain me.
Thank you in advance

If you really want to allocate a different chart of accounts to the company code, first of all reset the company-code specific data for the old chart of accounts.
1. First of all you must, if it exists, reset the transaction data for this company code.
2. Finally, carry out the resetting of the company code-dependent G/L account master data (without the general master data).
Note:
When dealing with large quantities of data, resetting the master data or transaction data can be very time-consuming. In this case, it is advisable to schedule the running of these reports as a batch run.

Assign chart of account to a new company code

Dear all,
I have created a new company code in system(copy an existing company code data). When I am going to a new chart of account to the new company code, system display an error message as follows:
Reset company code data before changing the chart of accounts

You have selected a different chart of accounts for a company code.
You must, however, reset the company code-specific data for the old chart of accounts beforehand.

Do anyone know how to solve this problem?

Hi Chris,
I think you have copied the co. code using Trcode , When you have copied the co code all the gl master records from the source co code is also coiped to to the target company code. these gl masters use the COA(Chart of accounts) used by the source co. code.
If you want to assigna new COA now to the target co code then you have to delete all the gl accounts from this new co code you can do this by executing TR Code OBR2. Select the gl accounts, Select the check box for "with general master data" and provide the company code and execute. Now you can assign a new COA to this new company code

Acct determination for Account-assigned purchase order with keys not define

Hi,
I'm trying to post an IDOC of type BBPIV through XI to an R/3 system.
The posted idoc in R/3 is in status 51 (Application document not posted) with the error message "Acct determination for Account-assigned purchase order with keys not defined in chart of acts WP2P"
As per my understanding this is something related to FI.
Long text of the error is "The system cannot generate an automatic posting because there is no account determination defined for Account-assigned purchase order with keys in chart of accounts WP2P.
Correct the account determination for Account-assigned purchase order"
Please help me how to solve this.
Regards,
Rashmi

Hiya,
This looks like its a MM posting / transaction.
You need to go to OBYC and maintain the account assignment. If you provide the business scenario (GR into Stock, Subcontracting, etc.) for the process, I may be able to help.
VKOA is for SD account assignment and I don't believe you can use that here.
Cheers.

ERPi Intialize Source System is not extracting any chart of accounts.

Hi Gurus,
I have an issue while Initializing Source system in ERPi. Any help fixing this issue is greatly appreciated.
Issue is, When i Intialize source system in ERPi, its just kicking off only one scenario in ODI. And when i browse to process detail to check the status, its still showing as running.
But i don't see any scenarios in ODI in running state.
So, obviously we can guess it didn't go to that far extent to show the chart of accounts.
So, here my questions is:
1. I believe there should be multiple Scenarios which should have been kicked of in ODI. But why only one Scenario have been kicked off?
2. And how long will Source Intialization process take.
Version of software using (ERPi- v.11.1.2.2) and ODI (v.11.1.1.3) Source System (EBS v.11i)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Mike.

Totally agree with you.
Found this out after digging more into the issue. Finall passed through this issue.
Yes, i Imported the Master and Work Reps which we will get as a part of FDM Installation.
Surprising but true that ODI V.11g is only supported for Hyperion system greater than V.11.1.2.1.501.
Also, by any chance do you know any Knowledge base or forums where we can find good material for Erpi Implementation, like Tips or pitfalls to avoid in Erpi Implementation.
I know this is one of the good place.
Found that admin guide doen't fully cover everything.
Thank you,
Mike.

Hierarchical ID Recursion for Chart of Accounts

This must be a pretty standard report format but so far it looks as though I’m not smart enough to figure out how to get ‘er done. I’m using 2008 R2 to work with a hierarchy of about 30k GL accounts. The hierarchy is narrow at the top—only 5 subtrees (Assets,
Liabilities, etc.)—and it is only four levels deep but the bottom levels are several thousand accounts wide.
In addition to the original Account_Number and Parent_Number columns, a straight-forward T-SQL recursive CTE has produced 3 new columns which I suppose should be useful. I’ve tried to work through the SSRS help examples on How To Create a Recursive Hierarchy
Group but it’s not getting me where I want to go.
Level     Hierarchy
Node
Account_Type
1
/1/
0x58
Assets
1
/2/
0x68
Liabilities
1
/3/
0x78
Equity
1
/4/
0x84
Income

/5/
0x8C
Expenses

0x5AC0
Assets -> Cash
2
/1/2/
0x5B40
Assets -> Acct Receivable
2
/2/1/
0x6AC0
Liabilities -> Acct Payable
I would like to a report which opens showing only the top 5 accounts but which will allow User to drill down through each of the remaining 3 levels. Using an expression to indicate level by simple indentation is not an option.
Please point me to an example or some more instructions.
HomeCookN

Hi There
As far as I understand you have charts of account which have three levels and by default you would like to open first level and from there user will drill down to next level.
You could do it easily by creating three row groups and visibility of the second and third level will be hidden initially and use display can be toggle by report item as shown in the figure.
However if you don’t like to go on this track and give your user the option to select which level he would like to see after the first level then please create a parameter and give user the ability to go straight to that level.
I am putting some screenshot for your help.
If you still have a questions please let me know.
Many thanks

EC-CS Cons Chart of Accounts & Financial Statment Version

Hi Experts,
I need your valid input on this issue. We have 6 company codes and wanted to have a consolidation P&L and BS. I have implemented EC-CS and have done all the all necessary configuration and the data is flowing to EC-CS without any problems. My concern here is whether i have done right in Cons chart of accounts or not. I have created one consolidated chart of accounts in FI which as 1:1 relationship with operational coa and also copied Financial statment version. But for some reason the FSV is not copied correctly to EC-CS in FS hierarchy for example under assets->current assets->cash i just get the group as cash but it doesnt bring all the FS items or GL accounts under it, where as FI i can see all the GL accounts under cash. My question here is how to copy the same FSV from FI to EC-CS as FS hierarchy.
Since I am using 1:1 relationship between consolidated coa and operation coa, what's the best way bring all the GL accounts in FI to EC-CS as FS item including the financial statment version. I went to CX16 and transfered automatically from FSV, it just brought in the higher level groups and not the lower level FS item.
Could somebody suggest me the better way of doing it or am i doing something wrong? Another question is how does the retained earnings work, does it work the same way as FI, transfering net income/loss from p&l to BS, since the data is transfered from FI on real time update?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards,
gj

Hi Dan,
Thanks again. I did figured it out and i was able to post the retaining earning account. Simultenously I was trying to post a reclassification and i am getting error message GK897 (Auto posting item 0000330000 contains wrong value (cons unit 000000000000003200). Basically in the reclassification rule, i specified the percentage rate in further settings and in trigger i had given the P&L retained earning account, source as RE account and destination as another FS item. The reason behind doing this to take certain percentage of RE account and to reclassify to another account. but im getting this error message, im not sure what i am missing here.
thanks
Best Regards,
gj
