Consolidation or group balance sheet

Dear All
I have 2 co.codes with same chart of account. I would like to create consolidate these two company codes and get singe balance sheet and profit & loss and individual ledgers as singel company for this purpose I have done
1. created two individual company codes with same chat of accounts ex. abcd, xyz and COA ABCD.
2. created another chart of company code as AB and assign this AB into ABCD.
3. created another company code as AB00 and assinged AB Chart of Account to this company.
4. Created Accounts for group accounts i.e for total sale 1 sales account total asset 1 Asset code etc.,
5. I have done all configurational Steps in IMG path "Consolidation Preparation (New)" path.(ECC 6.0).
6. I have posted some transaction in ABCD company.
7. When I try to see the transaction in AB00 company code I could see no data. Even Balance sheet through s_alr_87012284 I got the message as No list generated.
I did the above steps thinking that this is the way for consolidation.
1.If this is correct Why I am not able to see the data in Balance sheet or individual ledger wher I am missing i.e the data not posting into group accounts.
2. otherwise what is the correct way of doing consolidation
Can any one help me in configurationa steps

Approaches of creating FS Items in Consolidation

Hi,
FS Items has 3 types - value item, totals item and text item.
I do not want an approach where I create Group COA and relate it to Consol COA because the whole group has 1 common COA. I just want to create one main Finance COA and relate it to the Consol COA in Consolidation module.
Can I create FS Items in Consolidation module (EC-CS) that are value items refering to hierarchy level in the Fiinance Financial Statement, instead of GL Account level? Please advice.
Regards,
B Lim

Hi
when i used EC-CS 3 years ago there was following logic:
- field group COA in SKB1 was used if you where posting directly posing into EC-CS
- if you used periodic extract you were able to create the FS items from the Finance FS Version with following path:
Enterprise Controlling > Consolidation> Integration: Preparation for Consolidation >Preparation in the Consolidation System>Tools: Cons Chart, Group Chart, Financial Statement Version-->Transfer of FS Items --> Copy Item Hierarchies from Financial Statement Version
Hope I am not repeating myself and you expected another awnser
Cheers

Hi Thiru,
A somewhat late aswer, but it might be helpfull for other users with the same problem. You can solve this problem by assigning the division/valuation area to the business area. Follow the path below to execute this:
SPRO - enterprise controlling - Consolidation - Integration: preparation for consolidation - Preparation in the sender system - Further settings for Business Area Consolidation - Materials Management - Assign Division/Valuation Area to Business area.
Under Enterprise structure - Assignment - Logistics General, you will find a similar function. First execute option 1 or 2 here and then execute option 3. This makes it work as well, exept that it will not be recorded in a proper transport. The first option I gave for assigning is properly transportable.

Busines partner trading partner in TRM

Hello
Where can I enter the trading partner id (vbund) in the business partner? We have a business partner that is our counterparty in financial transactions. For consolidation preparation (in BCS for example) the trading partner has to be entered in the GL document lines.
Kind regards
Arjan

Hi,
Once you assign Trading Partner to Counterparty it will be automatically filled in the posting document. You can check in FBL3N/FBL5N display by including field Trading Partner.

G/L Movement Types for Fixed Assets

Dear All,
for the key figures displayed in report "Schedule of Fixed Assets" I need the corresponding G/L Movement Types. I found it for the posting types in attached screenshot already, but for the following key figures I would it need urgently for my customer:
- HIST_COSTS_START_OF
- TRANSFERS
- WRITE_UPS
- ACCUMULATED_DEPR
- VALUE_ADJUSTMENTS
- NETBOOKVALUE_END_OF
- NETBOOKVALUE_START_OF
The customer needs it for consolidation preparation
Thanks a lot and best regards!
Katrin Gruber

Hallo Katrin,
There is no easy way of matching the G/L movement types from your attachment to the key figures in the schedule of fixed assets.
The report Fixed Asset line items displays all fixed asset relevant postings for the selected criteria. I displayed in the report the G/L movement types (as displayed in the journal entry) and in addition the business transaction type.
In report "Schedule of Fixed Assets" you have a mixture of movement types
Total of Depreciation, which compares to G/L movement type 450
Acquisition Costs, which is is the sum of G/L movement type 400 (Business Transaction Type 647 + 643) and 400 (BTT: 641, but not 642)
In addition here balances are displayed, which do not relate to journal entries with movement types (e.g. Net Book Value at End of 004.2015).
Seeing this please understand, that mapping from key figures to movement types is not possible.
You have two options:
use data extraction for consolidation with movement types or
maybe extracting the data from the report with OData depending on your needs.
Best regards
Marlene
PS: I will provide a blog in the next days/weeks for the topic of consolidation.

Regarding Transaction type (TTY) and Movement type for MM (OBYC)

Hi SAP Expers,
In company's monthly rollup I am not seeing transcation type in some of the accounts. These accounts belogs to Account Assingment in OBYC. There is movement type and TTY for transaction. I am trying to get if movement type 101 is there accounting entry will display 09 in accounting document. I am not able to get that. Please check below attached mention screen shot. Please guide me step by step how should I will get required information.
Plse check file the field TTY for particular account shows blank. we want it display tty such as 01,09,02,and many more tty which related to particular account plse check attachment for that. and please guide me if you know what configuration I should check. This account belogs to material management

Hi Mona,
Not sure if this helps:
The OBYC relates to Transaction Keys = BSX/COC/GBB. These are updated in Field KTOSL.
The Field in Screen most probably relates to BEWAR.
In case the business scenario relates to Consolidation then the "Transaction-field" that is seen in screen may relate to cusomization mentioned below
S_ALR_87002588 - Maintain Transaction Types for Consolidation
S_ALR_87002594 - Assign Asset Transaction Types
Navigation: Enterprise Controlling - Consolidation - Integration: Preparation for Consolidation - Preparation in the Sender System - Preparations Related to All Consolidation Types - Transaction Type Account Assignment

Business Area not populating in Accounting Doc Post Division Change

Hello Friends,
Platofrm: SAP R/3
We created a new Divisions (06) and assigned them to the Material in Plant 155. A new business arae (PTIC)
was also created and assigned to sales are 0020 00 06.
Later we did couple of assignments (Enter Str>Assig>SD>) where we assigned business area to division - Plant - Sales Org
and Dris Channel ) .
Now to validate the changes I am posting a Sales order in sales area 0020 00 10 - to see whether the newly created business area is getting populated or not. Post sales order - delivery- goods issue and _accounting doc - in the accounting document
I dont see the business arae PTIC. Old business area (PTI) is getting populated.
I wanted to know whether Material is controlling the business area in accounting doc and where I am missing the link.
Our aim is to see business area PTIC in final accounting document so that we are sure that the material - whom we assigned division -06 is giving business are ptic.
Please assist and provide suggestions.
George

Hi,
Go to SPRO > Enterprise Controlling > Consolidation > Integration: Preparation for Consolidation > Preparation in the Sender System > Further Settings for Business Area Consolidations > Sales and Distribution
And check the below settings:-
- Assign Rules per Sales Area
- Assign Business Area per Plant and Division
- Assign Business Area per Sales Area

SEM-BCS Preparation for Consolidation Group Changes

Hi All,
Is the task "Preparation for Consolidation Group Changes" only implemented when Consolidation of Investments has also been implemented?
Does "Preparation for Consolidation Group Changes" have any value on its own?
Any comments, replies or suggestions most welcome.

Hi,
I think that prep for cons group changes is independent (but supplementary to) from CoI.
See what is said in help:
"When in the middle of a fiscal year a consolidation unit is either acquired by a consolidation group (acquisition), divested from a consolidation group (divestiture), or <b>changes its accounting technique</b> (method change), the following data must be adjusted:
- Reported financial data
- Standardized financial data
- Consolidated data with posting level 20"
As you can see, not only consolidated data are to be changed, but also Standardized and Reported.
Moreover, as is seen above, changes of accounting technique will also trigger such activities.
So, my answers:
1. No
2. Yes.
Best regards,
Eugene

Preparation for Consolidation in SEM-BCS.

Hello All,
Im implementing SEM - BCS (BW-based). I have the following versions:
- R/3: SAP ECC 6.0
- BW: 7.0
- SEM: 6.0
What do I have to customize in R/3 in order to extract the correct data to BW?
Do I have to do all the customization in transaction SPRO (Enterprise Controlling -> Integration: Preparation for Consolidation)?
I know that I have to create the companies and assign them to the company codes. I also have to create group chart of accounts and assign it to the transactional chart of accounts.
Can I do this in the account master data or do I have to have a Financial Statement Version for the Group?
Is it necessary to maintain Transaction Types for Consolidation?
Do I have to customize the Consolidation Staging Ledger and extract the data from here to BW?
I think I have to customize all this, but because all this transactions are in EC-CS customizing and I want to implement SEM - BCS (in BW), Im not sure if this is the right path.
Can anyone help me?
Regards,
Helena

GANSHA,
what you are telling me is:
- I don´t have to do the customization in ECC. The only thing I have to do is, identify the tables and extract the data I need to BW.
But this way, how does the system know, which postings are from group companies or not?
The company code in R/3 is equivalent to company (consolidation unit role) in BCS. The Group companies are created in BCS and the companies in BCS are under those group companies.
If I were you, I would check whether Fiscal Year Variant is same across all company codes in R/3. I would also check whether parallel currencies are activated or not. Non-activation of parallel currency is not issue, but I will try to understand what are all the currencies involved and the currency translation flow.
I have created the companies in ECC in order to fill the "Trading Partner" field in the master data ( vendor, customer and G/L accounts) and to use on FI postings.
Yes, you have taken the right steps.
I have created the transaction types in ECC in order to use them on FI postings.
None of this is necessary? I dont have all the company codes in SAP, some of the data will be uploaded to BW by file.
The transaction types in ECC are different from the transaction types (also known as Movement Types) in BCS. You will continue to maintain the FI transaction types.
Regarding the chart of accounts, I dont have a group chart of accounts. For what I understand theres two ways:
- creating a group chart of accounts in ECC and in BW will be available as part of the GL account master data
or
- creating Financial statement items for consolidation in ECC, Build a Financial Statement Version for the Group (linking the operational chart of accounts to the consolidation items).
I think, this is the only way for me to use the consolidation staging ledger (totals table GLT3)? Or am I wrong?
What you are telling me is that I dont have to do this in ECC, but in BCS customizing?
Im confused ... please help me!!!
Helena
In your ECC, whether GLT3 table is activated? In many clients' companies, GLT3 table is not activated. The GL totals data is available in BSEG table.
If you do not have Group COA/ Group GL accounts maintained now, there are many ways to get GL totals data with Group GL level info added. You have already mentioned the steps.
One more method is create a custom mapping table of Operational GL accounts with Group GL accounts outside R/3 (to be maintained as part of BW) and make your R/3 GL totals data to flow thru this table, so that the final data in BW is available in both operational GL accounts and Group GL accounts. Developers will be able to help you.

How to prepare FI-GL for Consolidation in SEM BCS

Hello together,
can somebody tell me in a few steps how to activate the FI-GL (0FI_GL_6) that it can be used for consolidation in SEM BCS. My problem is that FI_GL_6 (and also FIGL_C10 for new FI-GL) have not all required fields for consolidation in SEM BCS, especially movement type is missing.
I know how to use the BCS data collection functionality "load of data stream" and I also know how to activate the BI Content for FI (and how to connect the data basis from BCS with the "FI Cube" via source data basis).
But how can I prepare the FI Cube (DataSource, InfoSource) that it concludes all neccessary informations?
Thanks for support.

we consolidate on the BSEG tables for actuals and GLPCP for plan data, it all depends on your business requirements, if you feel that the details out of GL_6 is insufficient find out the tables that bring the needed information and build a custom data source, but my guess is that the content datasrc's should solve the issue in most cases.
