Reg. Company Code and Charts of account

Hi All,
I am trying to create a customer but Since there is no GL Account not able to complete the creation of Customer. I tried creating a GL Account but there also i am not able to save the GL Account becuase its throwing an error Select the Charts of Account.
I need to know what is Charts of Account means (as of what I know is the chart which shows the Profit & Loss in country specific format) and how does it link with the Company Code.

Senthil Nattamai Sekar

Dear Senthil,
Chart of accounts
A classification scheme consisting of a group of general ledger (G/L) accounts.
A chart of accounts provides a framework for the recording of values to ensure an orderly rendering of accounting data. The G/L accounts it contains are used by one or more company codes.
For each G/L account, the chart of accounts contains the account number, the account name, and technical information.
A chart of accounts must be assigned to each company code. This chart of accounts is the operative chart of accounts and is used in both financial accounting and cost accounting. Other charts of accounts include:
Country-specific charts of accounts -
These are structured in accordance with legal requirements of the country in question
Group chart of accounts -
This is structured in accordance with requirements pertaining to Consolidation.
IMG path do define and assign chart of accounts is
SPRO>IMG>Finnancial accounting>General Ledger Accounting>G/L Accounts>Master Records>Preparations>Edit Chart of Accounts List>Assign Company Code to Chart of Accounts
I hope it will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

hi geeta,
ClientA Client is the highest unit within an SAP system and contains Master records and Tables. Data entered at this level are valid for all company code data and organizational structures allowing for data consistency. User access and authorizations are assigned to each client created. Users must specify which client they are working in at the point of logon to the SAP system.
A CompanyA Company is the unit to which your financial statements are created and can have one to many company codes assigned to it. A company is equivalent to your legal business organization. Consolidated financial statements are based on the companyu2019s financial statements. Companies are defined in configuration and assigned to company codes. Each company code must use the same COA( Chart of Accounts) and Fiscal Year. Also note that local currency for the company can be different.
Company CodesCompany Codes are the smallest unit within your organizational structure and is used for internal and external reporting purposes. Company Codes are not optional within SAP and are required to be defined. Financial transactions are viewed at the company code level. Company Codes can be created for any business organization whether national or international. It is recommended that once a Company Code has been defined in Configuration with all the required settings then other company codes later created should be copied from the existing company code. You can then make changes as needed. This reduces repetitive input of information that does not change from company code to company code as well as eliminate the possibility of missed data input.
Business Area Business Area is optional and is equivalent to a specific area of responsibility within your company or business segment. BA (Business Area) also allows for internal and external reporting.
Another configuration requirement for set-up in SAP are the Basic settings consisting of the following:
Chart of Accounts(COA)
Fiscal Year Variants.
Currencies
The COA(Chart of Accounts)
The COA(Chart of Accounts) lists all General Ledger accounts that are used by the organization. It is assigned in configuration to each company code and allows for daily General Ledger postings.
Fiscal Year configuration
Fiscal Year configuration is a must and can be defined to meet your companyu2019s reporting periods whether Fiscal (any period combination that is not calendar) or Calendar( Jan-Dec).
Posting Periods are defined and assigned to the Fiscal Year.
Within the periods you specify start dates and finished dates.
SAP allows for 12 posting periods along with specially defined periods that can be used for year-end financial closing.

Hello,
There is no such automatic copy function from Chart of Account Segment to Company Code Segment.
You need to write LSMW by recording and upload the GL accounts into company code segment.
Use the following guide for your guidance.

Difference between Group A/c and Chart of Account with serval Company Code

Hi Friends,
Please explain the term chart of account with serval company code and also group a/c.
Thanks and regards,
Dev

Hi Mahendra
The Chart of Accounts is a list/directory of the G/L acounts maintained in the company. This COA can be used by one or many company codes.
For e.g Co code A located in Delhi and Co code B In Mumbai may use the same COA for reporting as well as consolidation purpose.
Group COA is maintained when there are more than one COA (e.g country-specific and operating COA) being used in the company. In this case the COA maintain alternative account numbers to the same account for automatic updation and consolidation.
I hope this helps.

Automatic creation of Company Code and Sales Area Data for Customer Master

Hi,
We have a organisation structure setup with multiple company codes and sales areas.
A customer will be created using VD01 via the Sales Order VA01. Because the customers are created using VD01 we need to automatically extend the customer for the various company codes and sales areas. The data on these views will be populated using reference customers.
Any recommendations on the best approach (technically) to auto extend the customer master would be appreciated.
I'm reluctant to use BDC's because of performance. We are in a Retail environment.
Thanks in advance

The sample code has been taken from the SAP notes - in which have the affected as outlined in the example.
The codes does not do what my requirements are, which is to identify the next available number in isolation of the BP type.

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

Company code and Purchase Org during vendor registration

Hi,
I have one enterprise context, with many company codes and purchasing org.
I am aware that vendor master data is at enterprise level in ESO. However while integrating to backend i need to capture the relevant co code and Purchasing org.
When the Purchaser wants to create a vendor, there does not seem anyway to enter which Purchasing org and company code the vendor should be created for.
Need your suggestions for the following options
1) capture co code and Purchasing org on bespoke fields and then in PI, pass these values to Co code and Purch org resp
2) create company contexts - would this resolve this? what are the implications if one vendor needs to be extended to multiple co codes
regards
Subrote

Hi,
Have you imported integration config workbook.
As part of ECC integartion guide we have couple of workbook and XML needs to integrated, which will create all the required extension for vendor master and vendor registration.
Once you imported the integration workbook, you will able to see the company code and purchasing org screens in vendor master.
Thank you,

PO creation-ME21n-Why SAP does not check company code and Plant relation

Hi All,
Does someone know, why SAP does not check Plant and company code relation at the time of PO creation or how can we put validation between plant and company code at the time of PO creation.
<b>Example:</b> Suppose i have a company 0001 which is assinged to Plant 0001. when i am creating a PO with another company code 0002(Entering at header level-Org, data) and using Plant 0001 at line item level. SAP does not do this validation.
How can we put this check in place?
Thanks in advance.
Deepak

Hello Deepak,
There are three types of purchasing
- Company code specific :You need to assign company code to Pur organization
- Plant specific : You must assign plant to pur organization
- Cross company purchasing: No assignment between company code and pur organization.
In the case 3, the system will not check company code and plant relationship, but it will check plant and pur organization specific.
The following is the copy of sap help text:
You can assign a purchasing organization to one company code. This is company-specific purchasing.
You can assign a purchasing organization to no company code. This purchasing organization can then procure for all plants assigned to it, irrespective of the company code to which the plant belongs.
Since each plant must be assigned to a company code, the company code can be determined via the plant in each procurement transaction, even if the procuring purchasing organization is not assigned to a company code.
A purchasing organization must be assigned to one or more plants. This is plant-specific purchasing.
Now, check your company-code and purchase organization assignment.
Hope this helps.

Arif Mansuri

Company code and Ship-To Party: variable values should be dynamic

Hi,
We have queries where we have Company code & Ship-To Party as Variable parameters.
While executing the report the user has to give the Variable values for both company code and ship to party.
But when they give the company code.....in the next parameter ship to party, it has to offer values which belongs to that company code only. But here it is offering all values form ship to party., where user don't want to see the value from other company code as they have lot of values there which is causing inconvenience to the user.
Kindly suggest me how to restrict the values at variable level.
Thanks & Regards,
Anand

Hi,
You can do that using BADI BW_BADI_F4 .
You can use this BAdI to restrict input help for entry variables in the BI variable screen.
Create a separate implementation for each required InfoObject.
The BAdI is designed for multiple use.
Restricting input help without using hierarchies
To restrict input help for flat object lists without using hierarchies, use method Get_Restriction_Flat.
Method GET_RESTRICTION_FLAT
I_VNAM Variable
I_IOBJNM InfoObject
I_T_VAR_RANGE Table of entries on the variable screen
I_T_COMPID Table of participating queries
C_T_RANGE Range table with other restrictions
C_INFOPROV InfoProvider
C_F4_Mode F4 mode
Entry parameters I_VNAM and I_IOBJNM return the names of the variables and the InfoObject that F4 helpwill be affected for. I_T_VAR_RANGE returns additional values from the variable screen entered beforethe call. These are returned in a range table that does not, however, return any information about variables that cannot be entered. I_T_COMPID is a list of participating BI queries.
If there is a single InfoProvider, entry and return parameter C_INFOPROV contains the InfoProvider forthe participating queries, and can be overwritten in the implementation. Especially when you have justone MultiProvider, this allows you to restrict the input help to one of the physical InfoProviders ifyou also set the F4 mode to u201CDu201D (input help from dimension tables). The mode can onlybe set to u201CDu201D in conjunction with physical InfoProviders, as dimension values are otherwisenot available. If you reference to a VirtualProvider that is based on a data transfer process, you always need to set mode u201CMu201D (input help from master data)
Return table C_T_RANGE is a range table of additional restrictions that can be used in the implementation.These restrictions are identical to restrictions that the system makes in the standard setting. It is therefore not possible to add to the list.
The following restrictions are permitted in C_T_RANGE:
u2022Restrictions for InfoObject I_IOBJNM itself (for example using a specified range)
u2022Restrictions to groups of InfoObjects (for example restriction of the fiscal year variant for fiscal years)
u2022Restrictions by the InfoObjectu2019s navigation attributes.
For technical reasons, pure display attributes cannot be used.
You can also make a restriction to physical InfoProviders. In this case, the input help is restrictedto the specified physical InfoProviders. Field IOBJNM in table C_T_RANGE then has to be set to 0INFOPROV.In the case of a MultiProvider using physical InfoProviders with mode u201CDu201D (input help from dimension tables), the input help is built from all participating physical InfoProviders.
Entry and return parameter C_F4_MODE describes the retrieval method for the F4 help:
u2022In mode u201CMu201D, the input help is built from the master data.
u2022In mode u201CDu201D, the input help is built from the dimension tables of physical InfoProviders.
The choice of method is therefore always dependent on the choice of InfoProvider.
Restricting input help using hierarchies
To restrict input help for flat object lists using hierarchies, use method Get_Restriction_Node.
Method GET_RESTRICTION_NODE
I_VNAM Variable
I_IOBJNM InfoObject
I_T_VAR_RANGAE Table of entries on the variable screen
I_T_COMPID Table of participating queries
C_T_HIERARCHY Table of possible hierarchies
C_T_NODE Table with node restrictions
C_INFOPROV InfoProvider
C_F4_Mode F4 mode
On the whole, this method is the same as method GET_RESTRICTION_FLAT. Instead of a C_T_RANGE, the additional node restrictions can be submitted using table C_T_NODE.
C_T_HIERARCHY contains the hierarchies that can be used based on the existing query restrictions. Ifthis table contains multiple entries, the system uses the first hierarchy in the standard setting. In a BAdI implementation, specific entries can be removed in order to select the required hierarchy.
Table C_T_NODE can be filled with individual nodes in order to restrict the hierarchy to the corresponding subtrees.
All other parameters are the same for Get_Restriction_Node as described above for method Get_Restriction_Flat.

Position to inherit company code and cost centre from Org Unit

Hi Team,
I have entered the company code and controlling area in my root Org. Unit. All the sub-ordinate org units that I've created have inherited this company code and controlling area, however none of the positions I've created have inherited them. What do I have to do to get my positions to inherit this information from their org unit.
Regards,
Jeanette

Hi,
Check table T7SS0, there are three switches
PPOM     INHIC     X     'X': PPOM: Obligatory Inheritance of Company Code
PPOM      INHIH     X     'X': PPOM: Obligatory Inheritance of Contr. Area
PPOM     INHS     X     Inheritance of acc. ***. features by positions
So just check these switches that they are set in this table, and I hope your problem should resolve

Company code and Profit center is not mandatory

Hi,
My requirement is that i wish to make the company code and profit center is not mandatory., ie greyed out. This i want while creating the project. I have assigned the controlling area in the project profile. but when i save the project i am getting the error as " Enter the company code". I made changes in field selction for project definition screen group - both company code and profit center are in display mode. This i did it with regard to Project profile. In project builder screen it is greyed out. but asking for company code.

Please throw your views
