hi,
<b>company & company code:</b>
The smallest organizational unit for which individual financial statements can be drawn up according to the relevant commercial law.
A company can consist of one or more company codes.
All company codes within a company must use the same transaction chart of accounts and the same fiscal year
breakdown. The company code currencies can be different.
A company has one local currency in which its transaction figures are recorded.
company code is highest level of organisation unit in FICO

Inter company &Intra company Buss process

Hi!
Can any one tell what are the different transactions that can take place in Inter co
mp and Intra comp buss. process.
Thanks

Intercompany business processing describes business transactions which take place between two companies (company codes) belonging to one organization. The ordering company orders goods from a plant which is assigned to another company code.
The following intercompany business transactions are possible:
Intercompany sales processing
A sales organization which is assigned to the ordering company code creates a sales order ordering goods from a plant assigned to another company code.
The plant in the delivering company code delivers the goods to the customer for whom the sales organization placed the order.
Intercompany stock transfer
A purchasing organization which is assigned to the ordering company code creates a purchase order ordering goods from a plant assigned to another company code.
The plant in the delivering company code delivers the goods to the plant for which the purchasing organization ordered the goods.
Because the two companies balance their accounts independently, the delivering company must bill the ordering company for the goods. This internal billing transaction is carried out by means of an intercompany billing document. The delivering company bills the ordering company at a price that allows the delivering company to cover its costs.
Intercompany sales processing consists of the following three stages:
Processing sales orders
Processing deliveries
Billing
The sales organization and the plant are assigned to different company codes and have the following responsibilities:
Sales organization:
Processes the sales order
Bills the customer
Plant:
Delivers goods to the customer
Bills the ordering company code (sales organization) - this is intercompany billing.
Intercompany billing uses SAP EDI to carry out posting to vendor account for the ordering company code.
Company Structure
Company code
Sales organization
Plant
0001
0001
0001
0002
0002
Condition Record
A condition record specifies that plant 0002 bills sales organization 0001 for goods at 80% of the net invoice value.
Sales orders
Sales organization 0001 receives the following sales order from customer XYZ:
Item 10 Product A 20 pcs (Plant 0001) USD 200
Item 20 Product B 50 pcs (Plant 0002) USD 500
The second item requires intercompany sales processing, since product B must be delivered from a different company (company code 0002).
Intercompany Sales Processing
The intercompany sales functions are carried out as follows:
Pricing for customer invoice: Sales organization 0001
delivery: Plant 0002
billing: Sales organization 0001 bills the customer for USD 500
Sales organization 0002 bills sales
organization 0001 for USD 400
(with an intercompany billing
document)
inancial accounting: In company code 0001, SAP EDI
is used to carry out posting to vendor account
Relationship to Pricing
The system processes intercompany pricing elements in exactly the same way as other pricing elements. The data for intercompany sales is stored in condition records. Pricing for intercompany billing is controlled by condition types, pricing procedures, and access sequences. Intercompany billing itself is controlled in a separate menu point in Customizing. This control data is defined in Customizing for Sales by your system administrator

Intra-Company & Inter-Company Stock Transfer Order

Hi,
what is the difference between Intra-Company & Inter-Company Stock Transfer Order...with configuration guide...
thanks
mohan

Hai Mohan,
STO is done mainly in two ways
Intra company stock transfer means , stock transfer between two company code.
Inter company stock transfer means , stock is moving in between two plants of same company code.
Configuration steps for Inter company STO:
1)you need to have two plants assigned to two different company codes respectively,
2)one is supplying plant another is recieving plant , material should be extended to both the plants (ie. maintain views for both the plants for the material in MM01 t. code )
3)make sure the ordering plant and supplying plants are assigned to sales org and distri channel combination....in enter prise structure assignments)
4) go to SPRO-->Material management > Purchasing>Purchase order-->set up Stock Tranfer order,
>defone shipping data for plants
>creating checking rule
>define checking rule
>assign delivery type and checking rule (with purchase order type NB , delivery type NLCC , checking rule B, (default order type in delivery type NLCC is DL )
>assign document type, step procedure
5) create a dummy vendor for ordering company by t. code xk01 and add delivering plant in the add prchasing data tab in xk02 , this vendor is the representation of supplying plant
6)in the sales order type DL , by t. code vov8 , ensure billing type IV inter company billing, and in the billing doc IV ensure pricing procedure is 'I ' and maintain inter company pricing procedure assigned properly, so that to bill the ordering plant /company by delivering company
7) create STO by T.code ME21N (create purchase order) with purchase order type NB
8) create delivery, by t. code VL10 B (purchase orders fast display) (select the line item, and click on back ground, then click on the item and log button, then click on the item and documents , then the delivery will be showned in display mode, convert it to change mode and do picking and PGI
9) then do MIGO ( with that STO no.)
Regarding Intra company STO,
the configuration is same as that of Inter company STO , except , the purchase order type is UB and delivery type is NLC
and steps are the same ME21N , VL10B and MIGO
Hope this helps you,
Regards,
GLN

Company to company distribution possible?

We are looking into DPS for usage of company to company distribution of folio's, specifically for iPad, and we're talking about small scale, maybe setting up 10 people at most to view a document produced, but short term creating 10 or so documents a year, each for a different company. Long term goal would be to scale up the number of documents produced.
The distribution methods are a little confusing as I see that Enterprise distribution is meant to be specifically internal to a company. We'd also like it to be relatively seamless - either enter a userID, deviceID or something similar to allow access to a document/app we produce (or even more seamless, like providing a link to access but maintaining privacy somehow).
Just looking for high level guidance on a recommended method of distribution and if DPS has the tools we would need to pull this off? Thanks!

Hi,
Make an app with some kind of content (otherwise it won't be approved) and use entitlement in DPS Enterprise for restricted distribution of hidden content. This way the content will be available based on login. It does require for you to have an entitlement server, and you do need to discuss with your DPS partner or Adobe about licensing as DPS no longer comes with an agency license.

Creation of Company for company codes in different companies

Hi
We have a Company 1000 in India and company codes 1000 and 2000 are assigned to it in sap (Indian Co).
Now we have a requirement to open new co code in Sri Lanka. Do we need to define a new company also for Sri Lankan Co code or we can use the same company 1000 for Sri lanka co code.
This is urgent..

Ajay

Purpose of creating 'company' is to define 'Trading Partner', which can be used for consolidation of books at group level.
If there are inter-company code transactions between these companies envisaged and consolidation has to be done at group level, then I would create a company for each company code.
I will also configure OB22 having parallel currencies for the new Sri Lankan company code, so that reporting can be done in local currency as well as group currency.

Thanks In advance

Hi,
Stock transfer between plants in the same company code is Intra-company transfer and stock transfer between plants in different company code is inter-company transfer and an intercompany as well as customs invoice is generated in this instance.

Cross company unique material codes

Hi all,
Three years ago we implemented SAP R/3 for our five companies which belong to same group of companies. Therefore these company codes are on the same client. Recently we have implemented a new company code on the same client which is responsible for export activities. This new company code buys goods from other company codes of the group and sells goods to export customers. We have been told by SAP consultants that we can use intercompany and cross company functions to operate these processes. The problem is, we have not planned these functions before, therefore the material codes are different in every company code. We have been told that material codes must be unique in every company code to process intercompany and cross company. Since we have five different company codes and thousands of materials, it is a huge work load for us to create these materials uniquely and delete older materials. What we would like to know is, is there any other way or method to operate cross company and intercompany processes even if the material codes are not unique?
Best regards

Hi Mertan,
I dont think that is possible, for inter company or cross company the material should be unique but if you still want to do with different material name then I think you have to go for development. Discuss this issue with your technical consultant and ask him whether he is able to create a table in which one material is assigned with different name and assigned it with one unique name. So when you will do the intercompany then system will check that table and identify the material.
Hope it helps,
Regards,
MT

Ideas for generating a Company-Accessible Labview Code Design Library

Hello all,
My group has been tasked with generating a Labview design library that can be accessed by all of our companies' Labview coders. The primary goals are to maximize code reusability and to share knowledge amongst everyone. I'm opening this as a general open-ended discussion to gather ideas on different approaches for this - has anyone else on the forums had experience doing something similar? Any suggestions on tools to use / approaches to take?
One thing I have to consider is that not all of our engineers use the same versions of Labview, as certain projects have constraints requiring certain LV versions be used.

1. Establish a reuse style guide and be strict in the reviews. Good VI documentation, tip strips FP layout all of it!!! make it comprehensive. Its no use creating the library if the developers cannot figure out what it does and why it is where it is.
2. Branch the library for each LabVIEW version and document any upgrades (a good bug tracking system is essential!)
3. Don't let every developer submit willy nilly. The submission process should be through a select committee of more advanced developers to control where the code goes so the rest of the developers will find it on YourPallet. and obvious related code (inverse of function, poly instances...) are grouped together.
Key Point. Focus on the developer that will implement the tools in the library.

BW Company to Company Patnership

Hello,
The company that I work for is based in the UK (Aerospace Industry) and is currently implementing BW 3.1 with content 3.3. The problem is that management have never used strategic reports and also that they are not clear about what there key performance indicators are. The company runs on detailed reports but we would like to start implementing strategic reports but I don't really know how to change the management team to start think that way.
Therefore we are looking for similar companies to form a patnership and benchmark our process in order to come up with key performance indicators that will then enable us to create strategic reports.
I also would appriciate any other ideas on how to go about it.
Regards
Evan

Normally BW Reports are a mirror of the business processes implemented in R/3. So I would suggest doing an analysis on what modules or industry-solution of SAP is being implemented in R/3. Then look in the business content of BW for standard reports in those areas. This will give you a rough idea of what KPIs are normally used by similar industries.
You can present these to the clients. They may not accept them as it is, but will definitely get them thinking and they might come up with some ideas.

How do I show more information for result set, I need company name, company address and company phone number to show. Now it is just company name and company address no telephone number, I need the number to show as well in the first result set

The result set I get for a search now only shows the company name and address, if I want the telephone number of the company in the result set, I have to click on the link to go the site information to get the number. I want the company name, address and phone number to show up in the result set without having to click on each hyperlink to get the telephone number...

Testing strategy after legal merge of two company codes

Hi All,
This is my first integration project. Please help me out with my query:
My company is going through a merger and we have merged two company codes.
for e.g. company code 1 is in ABC company and company code 2 is in XYZ company. ABC is buying XYZ company. This means that company code 1 will remain and company code 2 will merge into company code 1. They are going to bring in the open line item AR/AP data from company code 2 into company code 1.
Any of you guys who have worked on an integration project before please guide me to some documents online or state some kind of testing strategy to adopt to test after the legal merge has taken place. I am mostly looking for a strategy to test intercompany process.
Thanks,
MS

Hi
There are lot of issues that you need to take care of:
1. is there any relation bwteeen the two company codes before merger. have they done any transactions between them? If yes, what wewould be the accounting treatment for the same. Would it be transferred at cost or Cost+Price (Transfer Price)
2. If you are in India, there would be effects of taxation like excise and vat calculations
3. One of the most important issue, is that of the new fiscal year. What strategy would you follow for the merged entity? In Sap, changing a fiscal year is a critical issue. Request you to refer SAP Help for the same. There are notes available for the same
4. What would be the strategy for Asset valuations? Are there different asset valuation procedures followed in the two company codes?
Thanks & regards
