Copy User Defined CoA to New COmpany

Hi all,
For one of the implementation project that i am into, i am creating different companies. While creating a new company i have an option to copy all the user defined fields and user defined objects to the comapny, but no option to copy the User Defined Chart of Accounts into the new company that i create.
Is there any workaround for this scenario in SAP Business One? I am using SAP Business One 2005 India Localization.

Andrews,
You should try using Copy Express AddOn available on the SBO CD.

Problem in Report Templetes of User defined COA

Hi
I have user defined Chart of Account.That means i have to prepare templetes for each reports such as Balance sheet, P/L statement, trial balance.But im not able to get how to prepare it.There is option of just naming the titles and active accounts.
1.what name to give them.upto how much level we have to make
that templete?upto last level or upto title accounts(second last level)?
2.how these names will link with codes of title accounts or others in Chart of account?
Means how it will fetch the value on what basis?as we cant give G/L code.
Im preparing first time templete of user defined COA.so please give solution in detail.
Thanks

Hi Krishna,
The simplest way to create Financial Report Templates is to give a name to each template and click on the "Generate Chart of Accounts Template" button available in the lower right hand screen. This will create the template in the same order of the Chart of Accounts.
If you want to have your financial report in a format very different form you Chart of Accounts, then you can customise the Financial template. For this you need to link the Active accounts and this is possible only at level 4 (the lowest level) of the template. You need to create chicld accounst upto level 4 and then double click on it or right mouse click and you'll find a link for "Account Category -Details". This is where you need to link up your Active accounts.
One good practice is to leave the Show missing accounts check box ticked - this will show any account which are missed out in your template when you actually generate the report.
Hope the explanation helps.

Changing existing Material Group user defined names to new mat groups

Hi Gurus,
My client is using conventional Material Groups user defined names for ages in their system.
Now they have requested us to workout for switching over to UNSPSC material groups Global Standardization.
While carrying out the exerice, they have asked us to completely clean up the entire system to replace the new material group with old in all Masterdata, transaction data including statistics table in pr, po, stock and in everything
If any one of you have carried out this exercise and if you have any useful documentation, please inform me
Thanks and Best Regards,
Mohan

Hi,
If you change the Material groups in Material master the system the system will not update the PR/PO/Stock or others.
You need to change all the documents to update the New Material groups.
For Material master update you can use the LSMW.
You can update the PR/PO also but if the PR/PO is subjected to Release Strategy then you need to derelease then change the material group then update and if it is based on the Material group then while update the new release strategy will apply and you have to change everything.
Think of that if you have huge data then it is very difficult to change all the documents. if the data is Less you can proceed .
Instead of deleting old material groups just add the new material groups and use them in future for all your process.

New company integration - Should or not create a new company code?

Hi Gurus,
my customer is acquiring a new company and the related population will be integrated in our sap payroll system.
The FI team is now asking for the creation of a new company code (the new population should be maintained separated from the old one, with a different PMO and budject) but the HR Department does not want to manage (for several internal reasons) a new company code.
Now the question is: is it absolutely necessary to create a new company code or is it possible to manage this situation in another way (maybe linking the new population to a new personnel area, related to an already existing company code)? And what about the posting?
From the payroll point of view, the new population should be managed exactly as the old population. It is just a question to maintain them separated from the FI point of view.
Do you already faced a problem like this? And which is your feedback?
Thanks and Regards,
Gaetano

Creation of new company code is depending on the legal reason...if you legal department and Finance users decide that this new company is a separate legal entity and Profit & Loss will reported separate, Tax Id number is different from parent company, then all this means that this newly acquired company will need a new company code in SAP. Then comes how they want to do the costing...that may also require them to report all the salary cost to this new company code.
Whether it is a new company code or old company code...you would required to identify these new entity as Personnel area or personnel subarea right?
If the Tax id number is different, then it is best recommended to create a separate enterprise structure and bring the employee under the new CC/PA/PSA.
If the tax id is same, only for costing and PnL , then you can use the existing Enterprise structure and override the costing logic using the Substitute cost center or overriding BAdI in HR-FI posting.
Let me know your feedback

What is the work around solution to have new column and tthis wouold be named as "Qty". Let me ask one question is it possible to add new fields name to standard layout like 1-702 other than what it has been delivered by SAP????.
Looking forward to hear from and thanks for your efforts.

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

User defined Field refresh during copying Sales Quotation in SO

Dear Colleagues,
We are doing an implementation of B1 2004A PL14. We have defined a few user defined fields (Select fields) and using them in Quotation, SO and Delivery. Now,
when we create a Quotation and select a value from user-defined selection and then copy this Quotation in SO to create a SO the field value shows up for fraction of second and then clears itself and becomes blank. For some of the fields its working and for others its not even though all of them are defined in the same way.
This is delaying our go-live. It will be great if we get some suggestions on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Manish

Hi Manish,
Unfortunately I don't know what might cause your problems.
I would highly recommend to involve SAP Support to get your problem fixed.
Sorry,

Retain standard SAP order type after copying with user defined order type

Hello SAP Gurus,
We have a requirement of retaining the standard SAP order types after copying with User defined order types. But the issue is we don't want to see the standard SAP order type such as PM01, PM02 in production system while using transaction like IW31 etc.
Is there anybody who has answer to retain these stanadard SAP order types without deleting from system configuration?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Vaibhav

Vaibhav,
When you F4 on the order type field in IW31 you will get the popup showing the order type list. At the top of this list is a button with a green "+" sign (Insert in personal list).
You can use this button to select your favourite list.
This function is available in most F4 drop-down lists.
However, you cannot set this setting for all users. You will need to write an ABAP program to do this.

CS5.1: How do I create a new "User Defined" swatch palette.

CS5.1: Under "Swatch Libraries" window, "User Defined" is grayed out, so I can't access my personal swatch palette. I have the data to recreate it, but do not find a "new palette" selection.

Thank you Monika. Your response led me to what appears to be success. I opened an existing file that had my swatch palette embedded in it, then selected "Save Swatch Library as AI", giving it the name of my swatch palette. That palette now appears under "User Defined".
