Company code

We are in the process of defining the enterprise structure for our client. My question is on defining one company code v/s defining 4-5 company codes for the organization based on region. Can you please tell me the advantages of using only one company code wrt SAP MM or SAP LE??
thank you,
Aks830

HI!
Company code is a legally independent company in the SAP System. It is advisable to use one company code instead of multiple company code for one legal unit. If you want to generate report for multiple regions than you can use Business area for reporting, but if you want to have a different legal unit according to region than you should use different company code for legal(external reporting) reporting.
So, If it is a statutory requirement than and only than you should segregate company code according to region otherwise different alternative are available as an alternative for company code.
By making one company code master data management will be easy and many other complications can be avoided.

Help purchasing org, plants & company codes

Hi Gurus,
I have the following scenario which need some advice and clarification from all of you.
Plant A is assigned to company code A
Plant B is assigned to company code B
*Note that company code A and company code B are using different currency
PO is to be raised out of company code A and deliver to plant B. That is the Bill to address is to company code A and delivery address will be plant B address.
I tried assigned both plants to the same purchasing org A, and input company code A in company code field and plant B in the plant field as PO data. And encounter the following error "Please only use plants with local currency XXX" where XXX currency is the currency used by company code A.
Is this method incorrect? If yes, can someone advise me the right approach to handle such purchasing scenario?
Thanks.
New@SAP

Hi Jürgen L,
the reason why they get company code A to pay for the plant B purchase is because company code A acts as a regional headquarters, sometimes it could be cheaper to procure in the country of company code A due to the tax issues. Hence, plant B is getting company code A to purchase on their behalf.

SALES ORGANIZATION -COMPANY CODE

Hello,
Why sap says that the thumb rule that the sales organisation should be kept minimum per company code. What is the significance behind this statement. Why cant we have more than 1 sales org assigned to company code.

Hello,
Each sales organization is assigned one company code.
You can have more than one Sales organisation in one Company Code .
Each sales organization represents a "selling unit" in the legal sense. Its responsibilities include product liability and any claims to recourse that customers may make. It is also responsible for the sale and distribution of merchandise and negotiates sales price conditions. Sales organizations can be used to reflect regional subdivisions of the market, for example by states. A sales transaction is always processed entirely within one sales organization.
If there is one sales organization for the company code
The sales organization represents the company code Sales areas defined in the R/3 System are used to refine the structure of the external organization
Each sales area consists of the following R/3 organizational units (in any combination):
Sales Organizations
Division
Distribution channel
If there is more than one sales organization for the company code
Possible reasons for having more than one sales organization for each company code:
· Different legal responsibilities, for example product liability
· Unusual stipulations (for example legal), which make it necessary to distribute different product lines separately u2013 for example, products for medicine and veterinary medicine
· The desire to separate completely the sales activities of different enterprise areas
Separate distribution responsibilities, each with their own Marketing and Pricing policy u2013 for example, one for the domestic market and one for export
Overlapping customer and product master records or the desire to maintain customer and product master data in a specific, unusual way
· Overlapping responsibilities for order entry, or for sales and distribution processing (sales authorizations)
As generally said , our organisation structure in SAP should be simple to improve efficiency .
Hope it helps..
Thanks/Rajesh

Set up Plant in India with US Company code

Hi MM Gurus,
I am in the process of setting up new SAP plant in india linked to US company code. When I enter the address information, there isn't any regions in selection screen under country IN. Why is that? Also, is there any other things I should be looking into while setting this Plant. I have successfully setup many SAP Plants with US address, but its the first time I am doing for country IN.
Thanks

Hello Suri,
You need to define region code for country IN in the following path:
SPRO --> General Settings --> Set countries --> Insert Regions
Hope this helps.

Merits and Demerits of Multiple company codes

Hi SAP Gurus,
Could you please let me know the Merits and Demerits of multiple company codes in ECC 6.0. Actually client asking for separate company codes for each production plant. Client having 20 plants (Client registered as one legal entity as per companies Act having 20 plants in different regions with in India) and wants to have separate company codes in SAP to have decentralized control of operations and period closing. Could you please let me know the merits and demerits of Multiple company codes with respect to Load on system, Extra activities/ load on man power on consolidation, complexities ect..
Thanks in Advance
Best Regards
Raj

Ray,
From the background explained by you, I feel that you should go for a single company code as they have one singel legal entity. The purpose of comapny code is to generate external reporting(mainly balance sheet & Pand L statement) as per the legal requirements.
As far as decentarlized control is concerned you can opt for configuring each plant as a separate profit center which will not only allow decentralized operations and accountability but also a flexibility from internal maangement point of view.
As far as configuration of multiple comapny codes is concerned, it will make the system too cumbersome and will have undesired complexity.
Hope this helps.

Migrating 3 company codes data to 1 company code.

Hi all,
We are one legal entity, imparting educational training and operating its activities at three locations namely Gurgaon, Dehradun and
Rajamundary. In addition it has two administrative offices at Delhi and Mumbai besides a few other rented premises.
The implementation team has created one company as XYZ and created three separate company codes for each of the operational unit at Gurgaon, Dehradun and Rajamundary. All the existing company codes have been assigned to one Chart of Account. The operating units are neither independent legal entities nor are required to generate location-wise Final Accounts.
However the existing system is not meeting our requirement and we wish to operate thru one company code only.
Accordingly we plan to generate one more company code and migrate all the data from existing three company codes to this new one on a pre fix
cut off date. After that we will record all the transactions in this new
company code only and the existing codes would not be used further.
In this regard please advise us the steps required to be followed to migrate the combined data of three company codes to one company code.
Kind Regards,
Sudhanshu

please find some info on SAP SLO
Sell-off of parts of the company
A company group sells the portfolio of one of its divisions to another company. As a result, the data that relates to the sold company division must be removed from the groups SAP system, and transferred to the new owner.
With the "client separation service, SLO offers two possible approaches to the solution. Either the data that the sold part of the company needs is migrated to a new client using one of the data transfer methods (Legacy System Migration Workbench or Migration Workbench), or a client copy is created for the sold part of the company, and the data that the parent company no longer requires is removed from the client copy using the SLO service "delete company code.
Company merger
A company buys or takes over another company. The acquired company uses a different material numbering system than the buying company, for example. However, from the point of acquisition on, the same material numbers must be used, and it is therefore necessary to change the material numbers of the bought company.
With the SLO conversion service "material number conversion, the material numbers of the bought company are changed so that they correspond to the naming conventions used in the parent company. This is done using the Conversion Workbench.
Reorganization/restructuring in the company
A company was previously organized according to regions, and based its SAP system on this structure. However, an analysis of business processes reveals that a central, function-based organization would considerably increase efficiency in controlling. As a result, the controlling areas used to map the structure of the company in the SAP system must be adjusted accordingly.
With the help of the SLO service "controlling area merge and the Conversion Workbench, the old controlling areas, which were set up on a regional basis, can be merged into central units.
Optimization of business processes
In a government department, different standard charts of accounts are used for external and internal financial reporting. The duplicate work that this entails is becoming increasingly time-consuming and error-prone. The managers responsible decide that the external chart of accounts could also be used internally. As a result, the chart of account in the government departments SAP system must be adjusted to reflect this change.
The SLO conversion service "chart of account conversion makes it possible to rename or merge accounts and cost elements in the chart of account so that they meet the new requirements. The assignment table in which the changes are defined is retained in the SAP system after conversion for documentation purposes for an external audit, for example.

How to decide company code?

Experts,
When we create a company code it will be just like "GE10, GE20"
My question is why we chose number 10,20..i can understand that GE - Germany but why we go for number and also is there any namespace to use specific number...
rg
sam

Sam,
You can choose your company code any charecters or numerals with in the 4 charecters(as per SAP standard). It's not required to maintain 10 or 20. Also this will be decided based on the easy understanding purpose as well as some of the customer will define like this if more than one company code available in the same region e.g: as you said GE10 and GE20.
So you can choose whatever you want.
Cheers!!

The details description is below:
Inconsistency between FI company code PJP1 and chart of deprec. ZJCD
Message no. AC481
Diagnosis
You tried to assign chart of depreciation ZJCD to company code PJP1. According to its Customizing definition, this company code manages parallel currencies.
The chart of depreciation does not contain a corresponding depreciation area for each of the currency types that are defined in the company code.
System Response
This assignment is not possible.
Procedure
1. Check the currency types of the company code.
2. Specify a corresponding depreciation area for each currency type.
Please let me know what should i do in this case.
Regards,
Dinesh Lakhotiya

Hi Paul,
It is already defined for my chart of depreciation.
However, i think i am missing one step: Define depreciation areas for foriegn currencies.
When i went into this step, i found that my company code is missing. No depreciation area currency is maintaine for my company code. There is no options of new entries also. If i want to maintain the same, how would i do that?
Awaiting response.

Error while creating asset master on a new company code

Hi there,
While trying to create a new asset master - Asset class XXX cannot be used in company code XXXX
    Message no. AA130
Diagnosis
    When you create an asset, the system determines the chart of
    depreciation from the company code definition. In order for a chart of
    depreciation to be available for an asset class during asset
    maintenance, the chart of depreciation has to be entered for that asset
    class (Determine class valuation). Chart of depreciation YYYY that was
    determined is not entered for asset class 123
System Response
    You cannot create any assets in your company code for this class.
Please revert if you have any details regarding this. I am sure I am getting this error because of a missing entry in v_ankbv. But i am not sure on what is the config step i m missing.
Thanks,

You need to configure the node 'Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class' T Code-OAYZ.
Path : Financial Accounting (New) > Asset Accounting > Valuation > Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class.
Assuming you have already done the other prior config steps involved like., Assign Chart of Depreciation to Company Code, Asset Classes etc.,
You can also refer to the Best Practices Configuration guide (Link Below) for further details:

Prevent creation of a PO to a non company code Vendor

Hi,
We have had a scenario where we have been ableo to create a purchase order to a vendor that doesnt exist in that company code. The purchase order will let you Goods receipt this also and will only cause a problem upon invoicing it.
Since a Purchase order is considered a legal document we believe we should be able to prevent PO being saved if the vendor used does not exist in the company code selected in the PO header data.
I can see why sap allows it as you put in the vendor before the company code is entered but can we prevent this being saved or a message coming up on the system when this combination is entered?
Thanks

Hi Tracey Sparry,
This can achieved as below.
An organizational unit in Logistics, subdividing an enterprise according to the requirements of Purchasing.
A purchasing organization procures materials and services, negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors, and is responsible for such transactions.
You specify the form of procurement by assigning purchasing organizations to company codes and plants.
Possible forms are:
Enterprise-wide: One purchasing organization procures for all the company codes of a client - that is, for all companies belonging to a corporate group
Company-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one company code
Plant-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one plant
In this way you can assig purchase orgnization to company code which is not necessary but in you case it is necessary so when you are creating vendor with purcahse org and company code it will establish link when you are creating purchase org and company code it will not not allow to proceed further it gives error that xxx vendor id not defined in company code and purchase org and stop further to save PO.

Creation of SC or POs based on the Company Code restriction

Dear All,
I am abaper and I am new to SRM. Ours is SRM 4.0 using Extended Classic Scenario
we got one requirement that one company ex: SE04 should be blocked for further ordering of SC and POs. i.e. when creating any SC or PO they dont want to use 'SE04'. If selected it should throw an error message "Company Code SE04 can't be used for Procurement".
I wrote code in BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI-BBP_DOC_CHECK like this..
IF flt_val = 'BUS2121'. "When create SC
LOOP AT lt_item INTO ls_item WHERE be_co_code = 'SE04'
                                    AND del_ind <> 'X'.
    CLEAR ls_message.
    ls_message-msgty   = 'E'.
    ls_message-msgid   = 'BBP_PU'.
    ls_message-msgno   = '001'.
    ls_message-msgv1   = text-001.
    APPEND ls_message TO et_messages.
ENDLOOP.
endif.
and for po also BUS2201 we done the same.
it is working fine for creation of SC and POS, but when we are chaning old SC or POs for 'SE04' then also error is coming "Company Code SE04 can't be used for Procurement".
When I put break point in BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI-BBP_DOC_CHECK it is not stopping there also.
Please guide me for this..
Thanks,
Kiran Madineni

I written code like this: now working for old SC and POs.
IF flt_val = 'BUS2121'. "When create SC
    IF cs_header-created_at >= '20110110000000'.
*if sy-title = 'Shop' and ( sy-tcode = 'BBPSC01' or sy-tcode = 'BBPSC02' or sy-tcode = 'BBPSC03' ).
      IF sy-tcode = 'BBPSC01' OR sy-tcode = 'BBPSC02' OR sy-tcode = 'BBPSC03'
        OR ( sy-tcode = 'BBPSC04' AND sy-title = 'Change Shopping Cart' ).
        LOOP AT lt_item INTO ls_item WHERE be_co_code = 'SE04'
                                          AND del_ind <> 'X'.
          CLEAR ls_message.
          ls_message-msgty   = 'E'.
          ls_message-msgid   = 'BBP_PU'.
          ls_message-msgno   = '001'.
