Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable

Hello,
Could any one provide me more information about Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable.
Is it possible to use Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable without CRM (Customer Relationship management)?
Is it necessary integration with another modul (SD for example)?
Is this functionallity suitable for our case: a company that lets (rents) land (terrains); The company (our client) have several customers (about 10) and needs information abour rent contracts (lease contracts) in SAP.
We need the simplest decision
Thanks

Hi,
As a result of the high number of customers and invoices, utilities companies must create a large number of payment demands. To prevent you from having to enter this mass data in general ledger accounting, sub-ledger accounting has been integrated into FI-CA: Accounts receivable and payable. Contract accounts receivable and payable is specially designed to process mass data. At certain intervals, the system transfers the cumulated individual bookings to the general ledger in Financial Accounting (FI). You can also transfer sales or service invoices from the Sales and Distribution (SD) component to contract accounts receivable and payable. The goal of contract accounts receivable and payable is to automate all processes. Manual intervention is only necessary if an agentu2019s decision is required.
It is different from costing topics.
Hope this helps.

FI and PCA doesn't match/Receivables and Payables?

Hi!
I have a problem with Profit center accounting. I try to match receivables and payables in FI and PCA, but they don't match (transaction KE5T).
If I look transaction 1KEK, e.g. account xxxx shows 500.000 EUR. When I look e.g. transaction FS10N, the same account shows 800.000 EUR (cumulated balance).
So all the entries have not transfered to PCA from FI. Whe have done the period-end transfers (transactions 1KEK and 2KES).
So why not all the entries have transfered to PCA and how to fix this problem?
Points will be given!

Hi
Please ensure that the referred GL account is added in T.Code 3KEH.
If not, you have to add the same with a default PC and need to post all the existing documents posted in that GL account, manually to PCA using t.code 1KE8.
Regards

No receivables and payables are updated in Profitcenter accounting

Dear All,
No Account Receivables and payables are getting updated In profit center accounting.
In 3KEH we need to maintain only the balance sheet accounts? or P&L a/c's also needs to be maintained?
Please advice,
Rgds,
Kumar.

Hello Anil,
Please follow the procedure mentioned below to transfer values from AP/ AR to PCA:
1. Execute F.5D ie. balance sheet readjustment.
2. Execute F.5E ie. post balanace sheet readjustment
3. Execute 1KEK ie. transfer valus from FI to PCA
This should solve the problem.
PnL accounts should not be maintained in 3KEH. Only Bal Sheet accounts need to be maintained.

Nisha

Hye
You can not generate this entry auomatically. Other option available is Create Tax code for Ex S1 assign account service tax controll account and create another Tax code Say T1 assign GL Service tax cenvatable ( With Target TAx Code as S1). You have to maintain the Service tax controll item with open item management.
On a periodical basis you execute f.38 transfer the Data from S1 to T1 and adjust the eligiblie amount on a periodical basis.

Receivables and Payables Line Item performance

Does anyone get really slow performance when entering Orders/Invoices into AR or AP? I can't find any other comments about it yet we can't be the only ones which such slow performance.
We get very slow performance with each line taking around 6 seconds to load.
We have 3500 Items and 27,000 Business partners which I wouldn't think is high. We have a new Quad Core HP server and use SBO 2007A SP 00 PL49.
Interestingly if we use the AR Invoice + Payment screen the lines load almost immediately.
I have updated SQL Statistics thinking this might help but no luck.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you in advance.

Hi all
I have answered this question myself after many hours of anquish.
We had User Defined Values (UDV) in the line items which was set up by our SAP vendor. It is a query that updates in the UDF the current stock levels per branch.
When I turn this off the perfomance issue goes so I have decided to remove it from all Forms except Sales Orders where it is of the most use.
Sorry to trouble you all.

Activation of Business set IS-Utilities Vs. FICA (Contract AR and Payable)

Hi,
We are unto Implementaion project and in initial stages of Realization. We are on ECC6.0 version.
As it is exclusive FICA project <no metering,Billing & Invoicing >.We activated only Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable as Business Function set.
Now we are told that in future we may have to do billing and invoicing as well in SAP. Hence planning to activate Utilities as the Business Function set.
My Questions are:
1. Is it possible to change the activation from Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable to Utilities?
2. If so, shall be there any impact? If so, to what extent?
3. If we use Utilities can we implement only FICA? Do Contract, Move-in, Move-out is mandatory? We are creating Business Partners and Contract accounts through Migration.We do not have contracts, move-in or move-out as of now.
Your thoughts & helps is appreciated on this.
If any one has any documentation on 'change of Application area', can you please forward to me?
Thanks and Regards
Jude
judekevin22 at the rate yahoocom

Hi Jude,
As i understand from your problem that you have activated a BFS(business function set) only for FICA and now you want to change it as you will be needing other modules like billing and device management etc.
In that case ,at the start of the implementation we need to select tht BFS which corresponds to your industry solution and moreover you can activate one BFS for each instance.Now answering your questions one by one:
1) You can change the activation from FICA to Utilities which is known as BFS Utilities and consists of BF ISU_UTIL_WASTE and BFS ISU_FM.They contain all the modules i.e FICA,Billing,Device management etc .which you want to use.But for this you need to deactivate the previous BFS which you have activated.
2) The impact will be that your previous settings will be erased and you need to start from fresh.
3) If you use utilities ,Move -in ,Move -out is mandatory because a bill will not be generated unless a move -in is done i.e unless a contract is created and an installation is done.
Hope it helps..Pls award pts if it does.

Richa

Contract Accounts (Receivable/Payable)

Guys,
what is the big advantage of using the contract accounts module over the classic accounts receivable and accounts payable module?
Kind regards,
Rudolf

Hello,
SAP Financial Accounting (FI) delivers the standard Accounts Receivable (FIAR) module to track accounts receivable transactions. This module is tightly integrated with the Sales and Distribution (SD) module to enter and process customer master data, shipping, billing, and receivables.
As requirements became more complex and the data volume increased substantially over the last couple of years, SAP developed a module in FI for tracking A/R data. This application component is known as Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA). SAP promotes FICA as a subledger application alternative for the FI-AR module and Accounts Payables module (FI-AP).
FI-CA was developed to deal with a large number of different customers and different types of receivables. FI-CA is mainly used in industry-specific SAP components,
which by nature have many customers and many different receivable types. Examples industries are the public
sector, utilities, insurance, and telecommunications.
Even if you do not fall into one of these industry groups, you can still use contract accounting. The industry solutions for FI-CA have been available since
1999. An industry-neutral version was introduced in 2002.
FI-CA is not only tightly integrated with the core SAP components like FI,Controlling (CO), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and SD, it also has
the capability to deal with customers and payments over the Internet by using SAP Biller Direct, which allows your company to use electronic bill presentment and
payment (EBPP).
One of the weak points of FI-CA is its limited reporting functionality. SAP expects that customers who use the FI-CA module also have Business Information Warehouse (BW) installed. The FIAR module has better and more standard reports available and it will take considerable time and effort to develop these reports in FI-CA without using BW. SAP has recognized these shortcomings and promised improved reporting capabilities in future releases.
FI-CA incorporates more A/R functions than just processing invoices and payments and maintaining master data. These functions are necessary if you deal with a large customer base and a high volume of invoices and payments. This is the case with a utility, insurance, or
telecommunications company or in the public sector. My description of FI-CA functionality can be a starting point for your decision process. If you determine that the described functions are necessary for your business, than FI-CA could be a valuable alternative to the standard FI-AR component.
