COPA Sign Handling

Hi I have gone through some threads already...and understood how sign handling works but I still have some questions.
My current setting +/- not turned on in KE4I
1) I have a sales deduction on a billing document that comes as a +ve value in COPA and IF I  create a creditmemo for the same same sales deduction, -ve value flows to COPA. In reporting values from Billing and Values from Credit memo net off each other becasue of different signs.
Even If I turn on +/- in KE4I, it doesnt help cause the scenarios will be just oposite.
2) For the same sale deduction If I make a FI posting a +ve value flows to COPA as its an expense with CE category 12.
How can we achieve the consistancy across all sources. Under what circumstances having multiple value fileds help.
Thanks
KP

This is probably the most confusing part in SAP....
The way that I have caified it in my mind is that the system tries to keep the sign in COPA positive.
So for revenue (price) condition types, a CR in FI will be positive in COPA
For discount (Discount) condition types, a DT in FI will be positive in COPA
For direct postings, assessments and settlements, a DT in FI will be positive in COPA
Now for the exceptions:
For expense reimbursements - I have always only used it as part of accruals, then the +/- indicator needs to be on, and then the sign behaves like it does for revenues.
If a condition type can be either positive or negative, OR
if a condition type appears more than once in a pricing procedure, with differing signs,
then the +/- indicator also needs to be switched on.
What I am busy doing is building a spreadsheet with all possible combinations of condition class, poting in FI and =/- indicator, with postings that actually takes place. Hopefully I will understand it once I have a complete scenario.

  • Sign handling in COPA +/-

    Dear Experts,
    i have assigned exchange gain/los/diff a/c bydefault in okb9 with PSG and reciever is Financial Exp(Value Fields).
    now i have one doubt.i have created gain gl with 11 category and loss gl with 1 category.What will happen when FI will run foreign adjustment tcode and automatically entry will be passed and value will flow to copa from FI.
    how sign will be handled in COPA. when gain and Loss a/c are transferred to COPA in above scenario.
    regards
    Raman Rana

    Hi
    I agree with Nikolas... Choose cost ele category 1 for both Gain and Loss
    You dont need to worry at all after that.. Sign handling will be same as in FI

  • COPA - SD Condition Type value flow into COPA - Sign

    Dear Experts,
    We have a scenario where an SD condition type has been created which permits both positive & negative. However, the value goes into COPA only as Positive.
    In KE4i we enabled the check box Transfer +/-, however the values doesn't flow correctly in COPA.
    There is no issue with FI.
    Example:
    Condition Type
    ZREB   Discount                  -   3000
    ZHKP   Rebate on Disc        -  (1000)
    Net is 2000, however in COPA it is updated as 4000. Both the above condition types are mapped to same GL and Value field.
    Any inputs will really help.
    regards

    Dear Sarada,
    I read the notes but still have a question -
    In my case the sales order is type ZXX3 (return w/o reference). The customer makes order of the said type via VA01, then creates outbound delivery via VL01N, then releases billing block via VA02 and finally creates billing document via VF01.
    In VA01 there are two condition types ZXX7(discount) - Rs 200 & ZXX8(discount margin) - Rs. 100 appearing with a negative sign in condition value. When  the customer makes the billing document via VF01he manually enters one more condition type ZXX9 (extra discount / surcharge) + Rs. 50 ..for this scenario its sort of discount received back / surcharge). Hence in the billing document the above two conditions ZXX7 & ZXX8 are deducted and ZXX9 is added.(-200-100+50 = -250)
    Presently in KE24 for this billing document  the discounts appear as - xxx (discount) -xxx (discount margin & -xxx (surcharge)... The issue here is surcharge though positive is getting added up and only one consolidated figure is coming (-350)
    I checked the transfer +/- checkbox in KE4I for ZXX7 & ZXX8 and then rechecked. The netting is being done but the negative sign does not appear now which is wierd. (250)
    Can you let me know whether the values appearing in COPA after changing the setting are correct or not. I use ECC6
    Thanks

  • COPA report showing as positive values which should be show as Nagitive val

    Dear Experts
    I have one issue with COPA and Profit center reports reconciliation where the both have same structure

    could you please let any guide me where is the problem is occuring
    thanks
    Rana

    Hi,
       The COPA sign logic depends on the cost element type used (costs or revenues) and also the customizing of the '+/-  transfer sign' in tcode KE4I.
    The following table shows an overview of how condition values are
    updated in CO-PA for billing documents from SD:
    Billing document (normal) "With +/- sign"    "Without +/- sign"
    Debit posting                          negative            positive
      (such as sales deductions)
    Credit posting                         positive            positive
      (such as sales revenues)
    Credit memo/return         "With +/- sign"    "Without +/- sign"
    Debit posting                          negative            negative
      (such as sales revenues)
    Credit posting                         positive            negative
      (such as sales deductions)
    The "+/- sign" refers to the "Transfer +/- sign" flag in tcode KE4I where you assign SD conditions to COPA value fields.
    If the system is behaving as shown above and you want a different behavior then you could change the sign in user exit COPA0002.

  • Problem with signed applications

    I have a JavaFX application that uses some external libraries I want to use in browser embedded mode. The applications needs to be signed.
    I do the packaging of the application with a standard ant task:
    +...+
    +<copy todir="dist/libs">+
    +<fileset dir="externalLibs">+
    +<include name="*" />+
    +</fileset>+
    +</copy>+
    +...+
    +<fx:signjar keystore="mykeystore" alias="myalias" keypass="mypass" storepass="mystorepass" destDir="${basedir}/dist">+
    +<fileset dir='dist'>+
    +<include name='**/*.jar' />+
    +</fileset>+
    +</fx:signjar>+
    +...+
    The resulting JARs (the main application and also the external libs) all seem to be signed correctly. But the browser (I tried different browsers) all ask if potentially inscecure components should be blocked.
    Same happens with JavaFX-Samples (2.2.21)!
    What can I do to get rid of this questions?
    (I run Windows 7 with Java 7 Update 10)
    Thanks in advance.

    I run Windows 7 with Java 7 Update 10Java 7 Update 10 is insecure and browsers know this so that they will block it or prompt users before allowing any Java content to run on a known vulnerable Java runtime.
    Update the client machine to use the latest secure runtime, available from here:
    http://www.java.com/en/download/
    Information on recent changes in the code signing handling for Java 7 update 21 is here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/tech/java-code-signing-1915323.html
    Same happens with JavaFX-Samples (2.2.21)Oracle don't sign the JavaFX 2.2.21 samples, so a warning message when using them is expected.
    If you are using a signed 3rd party security library like the bouncy castle libraries, you might need to remove the existing signatures from the library and resign the library with your key.
    If you are using a self signed certificate, then expect to continue to get warning prompts.
    If you continue to have issues, try following the Troubleshooting Guide for Java SE 7 Desktop Technologies (Applets and Java Web Start Applications)

  • Accounting document not generating in billing

    Hi,
    When try to clearing accounting document through VF02 it showing *"check value field assignment for condition FREE"
    when I am double click this log it showing message
    Check value field assignment for condition FREE
    Message no. KE/AD243
    Diagnosis
    When condition "FREE" (application "V") was transferred to the value field "VVDIC" in operating concern "CPLG" in Profitability Analysis, the following became apparent:
    u2022     The condition can take both positive and negative values
    u2022     The flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" has not be set in Customizing for value field assignment.
    Inconsistencies in the data could occur as a consequence.
    System response
    It is not possible to post the document in Profitability Analysis.
    Procedure
    Set the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" for the condition "FREE".
    You should set the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" selectively for individual conditions if:
    1. The conditions can take both negative and positive values (for example, in the case of conditions that describe a transfer price surcharge or a loss deduction).
    2. The conditions appear several times in a billing document and thus cause a debit posting as well as a credit posting (this is the case, for example, when creating or cancelling reserves).
    By activating the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs", you balance the positive and negative values in a condition. You can thereby guarantee that the sum of the negative and positive condition values is displayed as the correct total value in the value field assigned to the condition.
    Caution when in the production system!
    If you have already used condition "FREE" to post data in the production system, then the sign in Profitability Analysis may differ from the previous sign as a result of the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs" having been activated. See the F1 Help documentation on the field "Transfer values with +/- signs" or the OSS note 52849. If deviating signs occur, it makes sense to move condition "FREE" to a new value field! Contact your system adviser or SAP.
    The +/- signs are handled as follows for the flag "Transfer values with +/- signs":
    Billing document(normal) "trans.with signs"  "trans.w/o signs"
    Debit posting                   negative        positive
      (such as sales deductions)
    Credit posting                     positive        positive
      (such as revenues)
    Credit memos/returns    "trans.with signs"  "trans.w/o signs"
    Debit posting                   negative        negative
      (such as revenues)
    Credit posting                     positive        negative
      (such as sales deductions)
    Maintain Condition Assignment to Value Fields - SD Condition

    Hello,
      The error message KE/AD243 generally appears due to incorrect customizing in the tcode KE4I.                                           
    Since you mention that this issue cannot be reproduced in your testing environment could you please check if there is a difference in customizing in this tcode between your testing and PRD environment for assignment of value field VVCDI to condition type FREE ? The +/- transfer flag could be the problem.                                      
    As of Release 4.6, the system checks the value field assignment during the transfer of billing documents to the Profitabilty Analysis.          
    To prevent an inconsistent update of data in CO-PA (see notes 33178 and 52849), the system checks whether the flag 'Transfer with the appropriate plus/minus sign' is set in the Customizing ( 'KE4I' ) for condition types of which there are several on a billing document with different plus/minus signs. So if the flag is not set, error message KE/AD243 is issued.                                                      
    You can bypass this logic by using  note 626529. Also check if this is present in your testing environment. You may only use this modification if the +/- sign handling of the affected conditions occurs in a CO-PA user exit. If you have not implemented an own +/- sign handling in an exit the modification results in a data inconsistency in CO-PA .                          
    I hope that the information are helpful.
    Regards

  • Can't select text or expand text box

    Hi, everyone.
    I have a Page Layout document that exhibiting some odd behavior under Pages 3.0.2.
    Everything is ungrouped and unlocked. "Make master objects selectable" is on, although I don't think I made any of the objects master objects.
    I can't select a text box using the mouse. The only way to get at the text is to perform a find. When the text is selected via the find I then have a cursor and can manipulate the text.
    Also, the plus sign handle isn't responding to the mouse, so I can't expand the box. Very frustrating.
    This seems very much like a bug, yes?
    -André

    Hi, Jerrold.
    I thought of that, too, but choosing Select All selects every object except the one giving me the trouble. Also, there seems to be no evidence of another object over laying.
    Ok, I just tried something slightly different that did the trick.
    When the cursor is on the background, choosing Select All does nothing (yep, nothing, even though I can type). If I purposefully select an object, THEN choose Select All, all the objects get selected, except for the "problem" one.
    But I noticed a menu item called "Make Background Objects Selectable." Choosing that gave the "problem" object handles and I am now able to edit it.
    It seems that Select All wasn't doing what I expected, and that was the broken link in the chain.
    Thank you!!
    (And a public thank you to Dennis, too. Who correctly diagnosed the problem and sent back a working file. Awesome community.)

    Please help!
     

    Just for "fun", I decided to take my own suggestion and write a Big Number project to handle Addition and Multiplication of Arbitrarily-Long Integers.  I built in "sign" handling for Multiplication, but (in the interest of getting a "testable") I currently only support non-negative Addition (and no Subtraction, yet -- it should be a fairly easy, and you'll forgive the accidental pun, Add-On).  The Project has 11 sub-VIs, including Product, Sum, and Power, plus one designed for output called "Big Number String" (currently only a Decimal string is supported).  I was not necessarily "coding for speed of execution", but rather for clarity of operation and ease of "proving that this works".
    I tried it out on your problem.  I got out a 135-digit decimal number that appears to match what you posted as the Correct Answer (it starts with 76677477 ... and ends with ...35294157).  It executes in about 20 milliseconds.
    Just for fun, I also coded up a computation of 10000! (after reading Altenbach's post).  I was not aware of the Factorial Challenge, and haven't look at the Post he cited, so am unsure how my algorithm compares with the 100-millisecond champ.  I'm definitely slower -- about 37 seconds, and while I didn't print out the result, I got 35,660 digits, one more than what is noted in Christian's Post.  However, you can Google Factorial 10000 and find its value posted on the Web -- my answer agrees with the posted value for the first (most-significant) 20-or-so digits that I compared.
    For the time being, I'm going to skip over how to convert this monster decimal string representation of a number to a hex representation -- my suspicion is that it will be easier to write a Hex Package to do the same calculation (and to define an inherently Hexy format to store the arbitrary-precision number) than to try to write a direct Conversion routine.  I'll leave this task (as well as creating one's own Big Number Project) as an "Exercise for the Reader".  Consider this an Existence Proof.

  • Plan data from 2 applications(mulitprovider)

    Hi Experts,
    I would like to see plan data of 2 bpc applications( X & Y) via bex query.  our version is bpc75nwsp04.
    By default when application created in bpc, system generates one mulitiprovider.  In my case, i used mulitprovider of X and in that included bw enabled cube  of Y(i.e Y_B cube). I created a query on multiprovider and trying to see the output.
    Is the way what i proceed is right? Is it anyway disturbed by optimization process in future.
    Regards,
    Laxman

    Optimization should not distub the multiprovider, that is the purpose of having the MP.  However I would caution you on some other things regarding using BEx queries on BPC content....
    - Avoids BPC shared query engine
      - Sign handling by account type is ignored
      - BPC authorizations (member access security) is circumvented
      - BPC Measures are not available
      - Dim formulas are not known
      - Comments can't be seen
      - Hierarchy display can be an issue

  • Attaching library docs to email

    Gw 6.5--Long time DMS user and this question arose today--no one never
    noticed before. When a library doc is attached to a document, a static copy
    is attached--fine. Does that static copy of the doc go to the trash folder
    after the email is sent? User has an item in his trash for every attachment
    of the last 2 days, file type icon has a "#" next to it as listed in the
    trash folder. I could not find documentation to verify that is how static
    copies are handled. Trash is auto deleted avery 3 days. thanks.

    Dave, Thanks--so it is nothing amiss. For all of the years we are a DMS

  • LR5 installation and first use

    i have bought LR5 and have installed it on my PC. the icon shows up but when i click on it, it asks me if i want to download the free trial version. i can not seem to be able to access the complete version i purchased. can someone help me?

    Usually, if you are having serial number issues, it is going to be something you need to contact your vendor for. Start by contacting the store/site where you purchased the software from and see if they can assist you. If they can't, you will probably have to contact Adobe for help. This will walk you through the process with Adobe--Find your serial number quickly. One other thing, some of Adobe's boxed software comes with an unlock code rather than a serial number. You have to create an Adobe logon and then exchange the unlock code for a serial number. I ran into this when I purchased Elements. The process was further complicated when, as it turned out, the store had sold my particular copy to another customer who later returned it. The store could only unlock it once so I had to return mine for a second copy that the store had not already informed Adobe about the sale. Try the link and see if it helps. If not, you may have to contact the store regarding serial numbers/unlock codes (though my copy of Lightroom 5 did came with a serial number but i purchased my disk through Adobe so I can't be certain how retail copies are handled.

  • Essbase API - Account Dimension - Account Type

    Hello all,
    I'm connecting to a cube that has an account dimension and I need to extract the account hierarchy for a given member name. What I did to get the member information is:
    mbrSel = cube.openMemberSelection(null);
    mbrSe.executeQuety("<OutputType Binary <SelectMbrInfo(MemberName, MemberAlias, ParentMemberName )"
      , "@IDESCENDENTS (\"" + s_member + "\", 0)");
    Now what I'm trying to get from this query is the account type(or the account aggregator). Is this information queryable?
    Many thanks!
    Rafael

    In BPC, "Account" can be interpretted fairly generic.  Yes each application requires an account dimension and each account dimension member must be assigned a valid account type (Asset, Liab, Equity, Rev, Cost) property.  But that is the extent of the restrictions.  So in is not uncommon to see the account dimension be used to represent the vendor, the customer, the material, or a key figure.  That last option may be necessary if you want to track "statistical key figures" or various types of quantities in your application.  Just be sure to utilize the right account type attribute assignment to result in the correct sign handling and accumulation logic for your data.

  • How can I get my G5 OSX 10.5.8 to quit trying to handle my mail? I have yahoo and when im on a site the computer wont ley me contact them unless i sign up for mail plus which you have to pay for. Is there a way to make it stop?

    when I'm on a web site and I need to contact them the Mac wont let me do it.  I have Yahoo mail but It wants me to sign up for yahoo's mail plus account which cost money so it can communicate with them. I dont want  mail plus and I dont want to have to use different mail then my yahoo account. Is there a way to bypass this internal mail handler, Let me know soon please becuz I have important business that I cant do because of this. Thanxz a Million,,,,Bruce.

    Hi Bruce,
    The only way with what you desire & have is to Right click or Control+click on the eMail link on the site, choose Copy Email Address, open Yahoo Mail in your Browser, New Message, then Paste in the To: bar.
    WebMail is a real pain, Yahoo is a pain... are you sure you wouldn't like to modernize & streamline things with a new free POP or IMAP accont like HotMail/Live.com, or GMail?

  • Adobe reader 9.1.2: "copies" greyed out under page handling

    windows xp pro: sp3
    adobe reader 9.1.2
    canon faxphone L80 (latest drivers)
    When printing from a NON PROTECTED document, the "copies" option is greyed out under page handling.
    This issue only applies to the Canon L80 and I can print multiple copies to any other type of printer in my office.
    The Canon L80 will allow for multiple copies on every other document application (ie.: MS word) so this issue is isolated to Adobe Reader.
    Additionally, this issue appears to have begun with version 8 of Reader, I uninstalled that version and clean reinstalled both the printer driver and Reader to eliminate the possibility of corruped installations.
    Canon Technical Support walked through troubleshooting steps and verified that this appears to be an issue with Adobe Reader.
    hopefully someone can lend some insight into why this is happening.
    Thanks,

    OK, here is what "export ACRO_PRINT_DEBUG=1" elicits: PPD not found - cupsGetPPD failed.
    The miracle of Google search led me to http://forums.adobe.com/thread/395263, where there was no follow-up to the above problem reported by Ernst Schmidt (Feb. 5 2008).  Further search led me to http://forums.adobe.com/thread/395385, where a workround is suggested, but no solution to the "cupsGetPPD failed" problem has been reported.
    In my case, /etc/cups/ppd has indeed the right PPD file.  Hence why the "PPD not found" persists is a mystery.  Using the custom printer option, I am still not able to get duplex printing (which was the reason why I was clicking repeatedly on the Properties button).  The printer refused to heed "lp -o sides=two-sided-long-edge" and printed on one side only.  Without specifying any options, my one-sided woes continue, despite /etc/cups/lpoptions containing "Default HP_LaserJet_M2727nf_MFP PageSize=A4 Duplex=DuplexNoTumble".
    Bottomline: duplex printing continues to remain elusive.
    I am now beginning to wonder if this is an HP problem, rather than Adobe-related.  Nevertheless, "cupsGetPPD failed" is puzzling.
