Creating Cross Company Code Vendors/Customers.

Hi All,
I'm trying to understand how to create cross company code Vendors and Customers. I've already established the link with configuring OBYA. What I'm not clear is on which company code I should be creating the vendor and customer.
We have two company codes, 2100 & 0980. CC 2100 has the central bank tha pays invoices for CC 0980. I have two issues.
1. What kind of configuration is needed to accept incoming payments into CC 2100 House banks and lockboxes?
2. For intercompany activity between 2100 & 0980 how are the vendor and customer master records set up? I know there needs to be a vendor on the customer master and a customer on the vendor master.
So for 0980 acting like a vendor for 2100 I'm assuming the vendor number for 0980 is set up as a 2100 vendor.
The same is true when acting as a customer. The difference being is that this vendor entered into a field on the customer master and the customer number is entered on a field in the vendor master.
I'm missing how the Vendor record, if created on Company Code 2100 gets linked to Company Code 0980.

For SAP to 'know' that a particular vendor / customer master records represents a specific company code, all these needs to be linked to the same 'company'.
Companies are maintained in T880 (IMG : enterprise structure -> definition -> Fin Acctg -> Define Company
Company code is linked to a company in the cocode config. IMG enterprise structure -> Assignment -> Fin Acctg -> Assign comp. code to company
And finally, the Trading Partner field in the Customer/vendor master is where you assign the company to the cust/vendor.
This setup will eventually allow you to consolidate interco A/R, A/P, etc.. if you need to but is not necessary for the interco process to post.(although you'd want to have it rght from the get go)

How to configure Funds Transfers, Cross Company Code Vendor Payments, Bill

Hi All,
Can any one help me, How to configure Funds Transfers, Cross Company Code Vendor Payments, Bill of Exchnage Payments with Automatic Payment Program?
Regards
Chandra

Hi Chandra,
This is what you need to do to configure Cross Company Code Vendor Payments.
Execute transaction code OBYA, when prompted, type in 1st coy code, say A and then 2nd coy code, say B. This would take you to the "Maintain FI Configuration: Automatic Posting - Clearing Accounts" screen.
In the first frame, where you have
Posted in : A
Cleared Against : B
Under Receivable
Debit Posting Key : 01
Account Debit : Account Number (The account can be a G/L account, a customer account or a vendor account)
Under Payable
Credit Posting Key : 31
Account Credit : Account Number (The account can be a G/L account, a customer account or a vendor account).
In the second Frame
Posted in : B
Cleared Against : A
Under Receivable
Debit Posting Key : 01
Account Debit : Account Number (The account can be a G/L account, a customer account or a vendor account)
Under Payable
Credit Posting Key : 31
Account Credit : Account Number (The account can be a G/L account, a customer account or a vendor account).
So, if you are using the Customer/Vendor approach, company A must be set up as both a Customer(Use Txn Code XD01) and a Vendor(USe Txn Code XK01) in Company B and vice versa.
Once you have completed this set-up, you can then use transaction F.13 and/or F13E to carry out your automatic clearing. Alternatively, whenever Payment Run is executed via transaction code F110, this would automatically clear out the payables and receivables in each company code.
However, if you intend to use the G/L approach, then the account numbers would be Inter-coy G/L account for each coy code as defined in the chart of accounts.
I hope the above helps.
Do not forget to award the points please.

Jacob

Reverse Cross-Company Code Transaction

Hi all,
In FBU8, I'm trying to reverse a cross company code customer invoice, but the system is saying that for both company codes, the documents cannot be reversed. I am able to reverse cross company code vendor invoices.
The cross company code customer invoices were just created and nothing else has been done on them so far. Are there any checks I can perform to find out what is wrong? The system does not provide any other info as to the cause.

Hi,
Please check if the period in which you are trying to reverse the document is the one that has been closed.
Also check if the document was posted in other modules like SD, MM You may also check if checks have been assigned to these documents,
if yes then you must reverse them first and make them void
the check using FCH9 and then try reversing it.
Check if you have changed any field status group of any account assignment involved in documents during the time document was created and the time you tried to reverse.

BAPI for cross company-code stock transport order

Hello experts,
I need to create cross company-code stock transport orders, is there any bapi that can perform this? If you guys have some sample code it will be great.
PD: i found the bapi BAPI_PO_CREATE1, but i don't really know if it'll work for this requirement.

Hi Team,
I have created two company codes 5000 and 5005 and then assigned the plants 5000 and 5005 to company code respectively.
Here my supplying plant is 5005 and receiving plant is 5000.
Also I have created a vendor 1000 with account group 0007 and assigned the supplying plant 5005 to it.
1. How do we assign sales and distribution (SD) organizational units to the supplying plant?
2. Whether we have to create customer master (using Tcode XD01) for the supplying plant?
3. While creating the customer master, the company code and sales area (sales organization, distribution channel, division) must be of supplying company code / plant?
4. Whether we have to create customer master for receiving plant?
5. While assigning the customer master to plant, which sales area info (sales organization, distribution channel, division) has to give?
Please give the detail from customer master creation and assigning it to plant.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Shyjith

Hi Shyjith,
1. Create vendor 1000 as internal vendor in company code 5000 & assign supplying plant 5005 in additional data in Purchasing tab.
2. Create receiving plant as 5000 as internal customer in company code 5005 & respective sales area of 5005 , if you have no other numbre range for internal customer.
3.In SPRO do the following settings,
a.efine shipping data for both receiving & supplying plant --- SPRO - MM -- Purchasing -- Purchase order --- Set up stock transport order -- define shipping data for plants
b. Assign delivery type as NLCC to supplying plant 5005.
Craete Purchase order with vendor as 1000 & plant in purchase order as 5000 ( If not defined any external number for customer)
Please note if you have defined external muber for customer 5000, the n you have to define that number, when you will be defining shipping data for receiving plant as customer.
Thanks,

Derive profit center in cross company code transaction into clearing items

Dears,
I have one condition where I want to copy profit center from first line item to second line item in a cross company code transaction for example.
I have two company codes XX10 and XX20
two profit centers XX50 for company code XX10 and XX60 for company code XX20
I am creating cross company code transaction. Now I want when giving XX50 for company code XX10 so upon creating cross company line items this profit center given in first line be copied automatically in the cross company code line item accordingly.
example:
Dr company code XX10 with profit center XX50
Cr company code XX20 with profit center XX60
Required:
These profit centers be copied automatically in the cross company line items automatically. I am using same controlling area as the company code not cross company codes.

Ya right , but when i am trying to post the enteries , the clearing item is having different profit center ( i.e which i have assigned in the t.code FAGL3KEH ), but the vendor line item is still taking the dummy profit center.
Vendor line item should actually take the profit center from the clearing line item ... but it it not taking ..

Vendor 27672 has not been created for company code 6200

Hai,
I am trying to post a invoice against a Scheduling agreement.
The scheduling agreement has vendor as 27672 and comapny code as 6200 in the header data when i look into ME33L.
When i trying to post an invoice fo the schedulig agreement using BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE , it is thowing the error "Vendor 27672 has not been created for company code 6200". which i am not able to resolve, as the scheduling agreement is raised against that vendor.
when i tried to post the invoice manually using MIRO, there was a POP-UP saying there " PO vendor is not an invoiceing party. enter the invoicing party." where i was giving 27673 which is the alternate payee for this vendor. It is accepting and i could post the invoice succesfully.
However, the same is not available in the BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE that i am using.
Is there any way that i can enter the Invoicing party as i did it when i was posting it manually or is there any other way that i can resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Upender

Cross company code Stock transfer - Special procurement Key

Hi,
Please clear my following doubts...
1. We have two company codes, Company code: A1 having a Plant: AP1, Company code B1- Pant BP1,
Finished goods sold from the plant AP1 are purchased from the plant BP1, so is there is any possibility to create a special procurement key having BP1 as the delivering plant and assign the key in AP1 materials.
2. Can i combine the two plants AP1 and BP1 for total online planning (MD01) by creating a scope of planning indicator? and run a single MRP run for both plants at a time...
Please clarify...
Thanks,
JK

JK,
I dont think Scope Planning is problem. You can create Scope of planning combining multiple plants, use transaction OM0E.
I doubt on Special procurement key option for STO across cross company codes, as the special setting needed in that case would be that Plant as to be created as Vendor / Customer. I would suggest to post this to MM forum for further response on this.

Prasobh

While doing cross company code postings I get an error

Hi experts,
I have an issue on cross company code postings through FB60. There is a vendor account which has been extended to both company codes. The amount of invoice is Rs.10000 of which 6000 to be accounted in company code 1000 and 4000 in company code 5000. When this is done we get an error 'A unique company code has not been assigned to company number A001'.
After trying several options, I have found one solution. In the test system I Went to classify FI document types for document splitting, against document type KR transaction 0300 (Vendor invoice) was there. I changed to 0000 (unspecified posting). Once this was done, I was able to post cross company transactions without any problem.
I would like to know as to what would be the impact? Would this change create any other issue?
I request you to give your expert opinion on this.

Dear,
When you are posting vendor Invoice through FB60 then system creates accounting document "KR" and when document splitting is activated in system the you have to assign Doc type KR to Transaction 0300 and 0001.
This is standard requirement. There will not be any changes by doing this.
Hope it is clear..

Cross Company code posting is available for recurring payment setup?

Hi All,
I could not find the cross company code field for recurring payment setup with useing T code FBD1.
Vendor is created in paying company code 1000, however, the rent has be booked to cross company code (1001) cost center (2000).
So, while trying to do recurring payment setup, I could not see the field.
I know the alternative option that i can use the "Cost Center(1000)" is assigned to CoCd 1000 and do recurring setup without useing cross company code, later i can post the manual journal for correction (as below), however, I do not want use this option.
Dr/Cr       CoCd                         GL account            Cost Center           Amount
Dr            1001                         Rent account          2000                      XXXXX
Cr            1000                         Rent account          1000                      XXXXX
Please let me know your thoughts on this.
Thanks,
Srinivas

Hi, ok17 is not for cross company,but for CO-FI real time integration.
Ex. you maintained for "RKL     Actual activity allocation" Dr 123 Cr 567
Then while posting activity allocation in CO you'll get posting like Dr 123 Cr 567   (with corresponding CO objects)

Transfer posting of tax in a cross company code transaction

Has anyone used the program RFBUST10, that transfer postings of tax in cross company code transactions? If so , can you give some detail in how to populate the table TBUVTX in config? There is not much documentation on this -
Thanks Pavi

Adi -
That works as you say -
I have also awarded points as you have been extremely helpful and i very much appreciate your input.
We use i/c customers and vendors for our obya i/c auto post and that looks to be an issue here with the program generated postings for the tax items.
I have some additional VAT related questions- would you be willing to consult further with me briefly? I have a couple of questions around processes that you have seen used in the EU. For example - if we use cust/vendors in our obya config and that prevents us from using rfbust to shift taxes between co codes (?), have you seen companies just use rfbust to calculate the amounts and then make some type of month end journal entry upload ?
Thanks ,Pavi

Document splitting issues in Cross company code scenario

Hi
We have the following business scenario:
(Please note : Document splitting with Real time CO-FI integration is active)
1)one company(say, Co.code X) purchases on behalf of another group
company(Co.code Y)
2)the cost center of Co.code Y is given in the 'Account assignment' tab
in the Purchase order created in 'X'.
3)The PO is created in foreign currency
4)So, when the Goods receipt happens, the expense posting is happening
in Co.code Y and the GRIR entry is in X.
5)When the invoice is posted in co.code X, the Vendor Open item (in
foreign currency) gets created in X.
6)The problem occurs when Forex.valuation is done for the Vendor open
item. The Forex.gain/loss is getting posted in Co.code X by deriving
the Cost object from the expense posting in Co.code Y. Now, the system
is giving an error message 'CO object doesnt belong to X co.code'
I beleive this is the way document splitting normally works by deriving
the CO object form the original expense posting onto the subsequent
documents but I guess, it is failing in this scenario. Please let me
know if there is a work around to resolve this issue.
Regards
Ravi

We normally do the independent splitting of documents in respective company codes (This being the limitation mentioned by SAP for cross company code postings).
In the document split configuration, for Define document splitting rule, check for the leading item for cross company code transactions, and check for the item categories to be edited. The following two entries will be there
1100 Company Code Clearing CC = CC of leading item
1100 Company Code Clearing CC <> CC of leading item
In case of independent splitting, remove the first entry and check.
Thanks and Regards,

Document Splitting Cross Company Code

Hello
In our company we are using business area for internal reporting. For cross company code transaction we have assigned vendor and customer in the configuration. In the document splitting settings for cross company code transaction we did a setting that every company code should have document splitting separately (Split each document in each company code separately.
In this case there should be only one entry in the splitting rule for the item category to be edited - 01100 CC <> CC of leading item.)
We normally received vendor invoice where expense belong to several company code but invoice belong to one company code.
Example Invoice amount 1200
vendor liability in company code SA02
Expense 200 for company code SA02 and 1000 in company code SA03
When we simulate the document in general ledger view, system create 4 line item in company code SA02 one Expense Dr, Vendor Credit and two line item with zero balance. In two line items system showing no business area. We want system to post only two line item and none of the entries should be without business area
Thanks and best regards

Hi
System is simulating the following entries
C>C PK Account Amount
SA02 1 000001 31 311001 T/P - 3rd Party 1,200.00- SAR 4449
SA02 2 000002 40 515011 External Persl-NonOR 200.00 SAR 4449
SA02 3 000003 01 146501 Claims/Bchar,ABB SBA 1,000.00 SAR
SA02 000004 50 999001 BA Clearing A/C 1,000.00- SAR
SA02 000005 40 999001 BA Clearing A/C 1,000.00 SAR 4449
SA03 1 000001 40 515011 External Persl-NonOR 1,000.00 SAR 2880
SA03 2 000002 31 326001 Non T/P - ABB SBA 1,000.00- SAR 2880
Now if you see in company code SA02 for receivable form SA03 system is not deriving the business area and in order to balance this entry by BA system is creating zero balance entry
Thanks and Best Rregards

Problem with STO-cross company code

hi,
I am configuring STO process for cross company code( plants in different company code). I have done all the config. When creating the PO i am entering the supplying plant, i am getting the error "Purchasing organisation xxxx is not responsible for Plant YYYY". Could some one pls. suggest what may be the problem?
Thanks & Regards,
Pathanjali Bhat

Hi Pathanjali,
For cross company STO, the prerequiste is.
1.0 You have to create a customer in SUPPLYING PLANT and assign to RECEIVING PLANT.
ex: for plant:3000, sales org:3000,dist. chanl:12, divn:00.
and assign to plant:1000 in spro sto setting.
( **maintain shipping notification**)
2.0 Create a vendor in receiving plant .
3.0 Here doc type:NB.
4.0 Maintain supl. plant rec. plnt. and doc type in spro.
5.0 Maintain del type: NLCC.
6.0 Maintain supplying plant in vendor master in purchasing tab>extras> add.purchasing details--> maintain supplying plant here.
Create a PO .
enter vendor which u have created.
ex u r procuring for plant 3000.
maintain pur org, cocode 3000, here ( I think u might have done a mistake here).
maintain plant 3000 in item details tab.
enter the matl. price and qty and check the status.
If every thing ok save.
Then
go to VL10B, maintain del. date (should be before than ur delivery date in PO)
press F8.
ur po line item comes.
select the line item press back ground button
one more line item wil comes.
select any line item, press log. u wil get new screen.
place a cursor on that and press doc details button,
system shows the delevery note. make a note of no. come to LT03.
maintain required fields, select back ground processing. and select 2 below that field( ie pick and post) and press enter.
system picks and post the doc.
now check in PO history. 641 mvt has taken or not?
if not do once again LT03.
Rewert back if any clarification.
Reward if useful.
