Copy Express/ Account Segmentation

Dear All,
Am trying to make a duplicate of a Database by using copy express. Note that the Chart of Account is segmented. I have managed to copy everything using copy express except the Accounts . The title Accounts are being copied but no active account is being copied. If I view the log file after the copy express process, I can see Invalid Code in the error field.
Anyone having the same issue and managed to solve it
Thanks
Kentish

I have used the following link and managed to get things working.: Re: Copy express COA
You need to actually do the migration in steps.

  • Segmentation accounts - Copy Express

    Dear experts,
    Client have total 4590 line item in the Chart Of Account in the old company database. When we do the copy express database, only 3558 line item copy over. Is there any limitation ie maximum number of General Ledger accounts that we can copy over?

    Hi kfsheon,
    I usually use delimited text and not csv to import data to b1 using DTW. Here is the example to import segmented account into B1:

    - Code column is empty
    - accounttype is defined for non titile account
    - active account is defined as tNO for title account and tYES for level 5 or non title account
    - fatheraccountkey and formatcode are defined. You do not use _SYS but you must use format code.
    extract the format code of COA segmented using this following sample query:
    select acctcode, formatcode, acctname, segment_0, segment_1, Segment_2 from oact
    the segment fields are use to separate format code
    you can use the above sample as guidance. You can contact me and get the contact info in my business card.

  • How do I copy/paste full numerical-only account strings into the Projects WebADI template when the account segment fields in the template require use of the dropdown because they're formatted as alpha-numeric values?

    How do I copy/paste full numerical-only account strings into the Projects WebADI template when the account segment fields in the template require use of the dropdown because they're formatted as alpha-numeric values? I'm using the Integrator named "Projects - Transaction Import" and a custom Layout created based on the seeded Layout named "Transaction Import - Accounted". Do I need to somehow change my Layout to make the Document accept numerical values instead of requiring alpha-numeric values? I need to be able to populate the Document with a large amount of transactions and cannot feasibly go through every transaction to add the alpha-valued name of the account segment to every segment that requires it. The segments in particular causing the problem are "Expnd Type" and "Organization Name" which are both alpha-numeric and as such contain the segment number and name; I need to be able to only have to enter the Natural Account Number (6-digit number only) and the Organization Number (5-digit number only).

  • Copy Express Item Groups Transaction revenue Account not Found

    Currently using Copy Express.
    1.  Have successfully loaded COA
    2. Manually entered G/L account determinaition and tax codes
    3. Error below is occuring when trying to Copy Item Groups and Warehouses.  The items groups and Warehosues are failing.
    Transaction created by document was not found, 'Revenue account'.
    NOTE: the accounts determined for each item group in the source database all exist in the target database.
    Can any please assist in explaining why this is happening and how I could prevent this from occuring without having to mannually create warehosues and items?
    Thanks Very much
    Lisa

    Hi Lisa,
    I have a suggestion.
    The Revenue account in question may be problematic.                                                                               
    Can you try to change to another revenue account in your source db, and try to copy warehouse to target DB?                                                                               
    1.goto source db,and search for the specific warehouse and change the         
      revenue account to another account
    2.and copy warehouse to target db 
    Hope this will be helpful.
    Kind regards,
    Willy

  • Move to Account Segmentation

    Hi,
    We have been using SAP B1 for 4 years and are not using account segmentation but would like to in order to separate our existing branch and a new branch.  Is there any way to do this either with an SAP provided conversion utility or by sending our database to SAP?
    Thanks,
    David

    hi,
    Use segmentation accounts is greyed out once transactions are posted,Hence
    create new database,do appropriate settings,move account balances to new database also
    use copy express to move other datas,Use DTW to import master datas to new database.
    Raise a ticket(consulting) to SAP in service market place abt ur requirement also ask them
    which version will suit the reqirements & with enhanced features .

  • Problem while copying datas using Copy Express

    Hai Experts,
    Greetings.
    We were trying to copy Master and Configuration datas from test database to Live database using Copy express. The datas from Item Master, BP Master copied Correctly, but, in CoA (we are using Segmented Accounts) the G/L Account --> the Code column shows the System refernce no. (ie., _SYS00000002679) and the Name of the G/L Account is copied correctly.
    Is there any solution to solve this problem.
    Thanks and Regards
    Raja

    On your test company, there's segmented accounting setup. Is the segmented accounting setup on the Live company (or have you managed to use copy express to copy over the segments and other settings)?
    If you've done that, then maybe you could export to XML your Copy Express worksheet and upload it somewhere so we can have a look?

  • Using Copy Express for the COA

    Hi Experts,
    Just want to make sure.
    It is not possible at all to Copy a portion of a segmented Chart Of Accounts from one database into another database that does not make use of Account Segmentation via Copy Express?
    Thanks!
    Regards

    Hi,
    It's impossile to copy a portion of a segmented Chart Of Accounts by Copy Express. You should import by DWT. This is an easy way.
    There is a guide on wiki page:

  • Posting periods and account segmentation

    the company has several suboffice/division, but they want all under one company in B1. also they receive some of they invoices 2 months lates. Data migration will go back 2 years. So what is best way to set up posting period and account segmentation.

    Hello,
    Take a look at this thread and copied to your notepad :
    Division in SAP Business One
    about how to create suboffice/division.
    The posting period can be created go back more than 1 years from now as long when performing data migration, do not forget to set the current period that match with your data dates. The invoices and other opening balances can be migrated using DTW templates.
    So, I suggest you could create posting period more than 2 years ago in the last time and create 2 segmented accounts consists of sub office and division beside natural account. E.g. :
    12111-01-02 : 12111 is natural account, 01 is suboffice code and 02 is division.

  • Vendor Master copying through Copy Express

    Hi Experts,
    I am copying from One Database to a NEW Database ( this database has diffrent configuration ) the Vendor Master Data through Copy Express but while runing the Copy Express I am getting an error as 'Bank does not exsits in the company'. In the Base Company Database from where I am copying has a diffrent bank acccount but in the NEW Database which is created is a another company and has diffrent bank account hence I cannot keep the same bank account as in the Base Compnay Database.
    Please let me know how to achive a soltuion to it.
    Regards,
    Kawish

    Dear Vijay,
    Please note that the folowing details as required by you.
    SAP Version - 2005B
    Patch level 39
    When executing the query from query generator as SELECT * FROM T0.BankCountr, T0.BankCode,T0.DflAccount,T0.DflBranch FROm OCRD T0 I am getting value in Default Bank as -1 and and rest coloumn are blank.
    If I create manually the House Bank Account in the target company ( which means I create the base company bank account in the target company ) then upload may be done but one have to then manually change in the vendors BP master the target company bank account which is a tedious task.
    Hope you are able to give a proper solution in this regard.

  • Copy Express Crash

    Greetings,
    In the midst of copying Chart of Account Titles via Copy Express.
    However, I can only copy up to the 1st title of level 3. If more than that the copy express crash.
    For example, if Level 2 title has 2 sub-titles, I can copy the first sub-title successfully. When I tried to copy the second sub-title, copy express will crash.
    What is wrong? Application error? I'm using 8.81 PL05.
    P/S: I have copied the same database before in the same manner in 2005A SP01 PL46 with no problem.

    Hi Gordon,
    Yes it's the same localization.
    More info:
    Base db is an upgraded db from 2005A SP01 PL46 to 8.81 PL05. Target db is a newly created db in 8.81 PL05.

  • Copy Express distorting data

    Hello
    We have used Copy Express to copy one database into another.
    This has led to several data corruption :
    - loss of tax account in the tax settings
    - change of item group code number (without a proper renumbering of data)
    - copy of one user table into another one
    Copy was done folder by folder (but we didn't do it all in one go) and I didn't untick any customisation.
    We are in B1 2007 patch 37.
    Has anyone seen those type of problem ? How did you solve it ?
    Thanks

  • Copy express and user defined windows

    Hi All,
    I´m using CopyExpress to copy a company A to B with a certain selection criteria.
    The content of the user defined windows are in the target company (B) and when adding an entry into the Journal Entry certain fields are populated automatically when saving the entry.
    That´s how we expect the system to behave.
    But for a certain document serie these same fields are not populated automatically.
    Someone has encountered some issues regarging the Journal Entry and Copy Express?
    Thanks for your help

    The data copied by Copy Express may not be identical.  For example, the account code will be different if you use segregated accounts.  Some of other internal codes may not be the same either.
    Thanks,
    Gordon
