Creating or Copying controlling area

Can you please tell me, what is the standard SAP best practice:
1) To copy controlling area from existing 0001. (I tried copying from 0001 co area but could not)
2) Creating new controlling area.
Please let me know. I will be helpful.
Priya

Hi,
I think the best way to avoid the further config is Copy by Template like CoAr and CoCd. It will save lot of time in maintaining the number ranges (KANK). Also all std doc types are automatically set.
Ofcourse one should localize the sample org to their country so that Currency and Fiscal Year Var are set auto.
Sometimes while copying SAP gives error regd some table entries.(Error TK455). Pl search SAP note by the same message no. and delete the field values like 12 for REICHWEITE.
Hope it clears the doubts.
Best Regards,
Kiran

Problem in Controlling Area created with 3 characters long

Hi:
I have a "small" problem, perhaps you could help me.
We have created a new Controlling Area, but it is created only with 3 characters, instead of four. We have been working with no problem until me have to create a Purchase Order with some profiles. They cannot create any PO. If we go to SU53 transaction we got the message in object K_PCA. There is a blank in string Responsibility Area, and the system cannot recognize that. This string concatenate CO Area code (and a blank) and Profit Center, but keeps a blank between them.
Do you know how to solve it? We cannot delete CO Area because we have many data created in it.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Hi:
I have to try it, but it does not work. In SU53 I have this message:
The following authorization object was checked:
=================
Objeto K_PCA      EC-PCA: Responsibility Area, Profit Centrer
Área de responsabilidad CO-OM
           PCGLAB0101
Available authorizations for the object in the master record:
Object   K_PCA      EC-PCA: Responsibility Area, Profit Center
Área de responsabilidad CO-OM
          PCGLA B0101
============
There is a blank PCGLA B0101, and not in PCGLAB0101.
I need to delete it in master record or add it in authorization object.
Does anybody how I can change it?
Thanks in advance.

Sales Order Type Configaration Correction : Impact on Copy controls and Oth

Dear All,
I wanted to know the impact of correcting a sales order type configuration on the dependent configurations.
we have configured a new sales order documents in V0V8 with a certain billing type (by coping standard order), however after few days when tested in QA box, we realized that Billing type should be not F2 but something else.
I wanted to know, if I can simple change the billing type to zf2 in V0V8 or something else has to be done .. Please suggest.
I wanted to know if by changing the billing type all the table entries created earlier (copy controls) automatically get modifed .
Please suggest.
Anitha

Hi,
Even for your newly created document type(Sales order),the billing type F2 will definitely work if you do some configurations.
The configurations are:
Goto the T.Code "VOV8".Select your order type.Details.
Goto the Billing tab.
If your scenario is "Order-related" billing,maintain the "Order-rel. bill. type" as "F2".
Save.
Goto the T.Code "VTFA" and maintain the copy control for your order and billing and also maintain the settings for your item category.
If your scenario is "Delivery-related" billing,maintain the "Delivery-rel. bill. type" as "F2".
Save.
Goto the T.Code "VTFL" and maintain the copy control for your delivery and billing and also maintain the settings for your item category.
If you want to create a new billing document type,then it should be created by using the T.Code "VOFA" not by "VOV8".
Select the billing document type as "F2" and click on Copy as.Change the name to "ZF2".
Save.
Maintain the relevant configuration changes.

Krishna.

De activation of Controlling Area

Hi,
We have got a situation that we need to de activate the existing controlling area and create a new controlling area as per the mutual agreement between our co & the client.
and we have got 1:1 ratio between controlling area & company code
Now the system will not allow me to delete the company code assignment from the controlling area as the master data exists for this particular company code.
how do i proceed with this kind of situation.
My concerns are
1. How do I assign the company code to a new controlling area which has already been assigned to a particular controlling area.
2. Now if i go with the new controlling area which i have created then how does the system respond to the old open item data which has been entered for old cost centres,profit centres.
What will happen when i start clearing this transactions how does the system responsd to this kind of situations.
Kindly advise
Regards
Sunil

Hi Sridhar,
Thanks for your prompt response but I have 2 queries.
1. Will the system allow me delete the master datas when there is transaction data which exists in the masters for which we want to delete.
2. Secondly what will happen when i try to clear the open item which have been booked under a particular cost centre and profit centre which were assigned to my old controlling area and when i start clearing the old items with the new controlling area activate how does system respond to it.
Will it allow me to clear these transactions/allow processing of the old data which had been fed in the old controlling area.
Plz help me out in this.

User exit for merging the credit limit in different credit control area.

Dear All,
Please provide user exit for the merging the credit limit in different credit control area as well as logic for the same.
I have to merge the overall credit limit of the customer for some divisions. At this time in one company code we have created 9 credit control area as per product line. While creating customer master data and Credit management (FD32) user has assigned the different limit with respective to credit control area e. g Customeru2019s total limit assigned is 10 laks. For credit control 1100 Limit is Rs. 3 laks and for credit control area 2200 limit is 7 laks. Now the user wants to merge the credit limit for only above two credit control area. The sales orders should get created in any credit control area up to 10 laks.

Suresh

Dear Damodhar/All,
Would you please explain me prerequisite setting from functional side for these user exit?
I want complete functional setting prior to ABAP application so that it work properly post configuration.

Creation of a new controlling area

I'm trying to create a new controlling area (trans. OKKP).
In folder "activate components/control indicators", I wanted to activate Profitability Analysis but the field was in grey and was not possible to change from "component not active" to one of the other activation possibilities.
I need to know what to do to change this field.
The client is working with COPA and this set-up was done before to assign the controlling area to the FI company.
The SAP version is 4.7

Dear.
You can activate that through tcd KEKE.
You know, Before that, Operating concern must be maintained.

Assign Company Codes to new Credit Controlling areas after going live.

Dear FI Experts;
Our Status Now:
We Have 3 Company Codes, CC 1000, 2000, 3000 and one Credit Controlling Area Code 0001, and the Customers are assigned to this Credit Controlling area with no problems and we are live since about 9 months ago.
Requirement:
We have a requirement to split the Customer Credit limit between companies, which means we have to create more credit control areas for example CCA 0002, and 0003, and though assign our 3 company codes to the new credit control areas, as follows:
CC 1000 to CCA 0001
CC2000 to CCA 0002
CC3000 to CCA 0003
And my Question is, what is the procedures to follow to do that (Not a Customization Procedures, I mean the How the Customers would be affected and the open items for them and how to resolve that), since as mentioned above we are already live since 9 months ago, and credit management is active and all our customers are assigned to our old Credit control area 0001, and also what is the consequence of doing that new assignment since we are live, thanks for your reply

You will need to manage to create new credit master data under new credit control area. System should reorganize existing credit data after reassignment, that is when you change master data (create credit master under new credit control area), new credit exposure is calculated based on AR in company code and existing open orders will get rechecked for credit under new credit control area & new risk categories assigned to them.

Copy control Settings from a Quotaion to Value contract/Quantity Contract

Hello Friends,
I would like to know whether it is possible to create a Value/Quantity contract in R3 with reference to a Quotation,Currently I am not able to see the copy control settings between quotation and Value/Quantity ,Also it help me a lot if you can provide me the copy control settings -Header and Item level
Thanks and Regards
Mohammed Roshan

if you run VTAA you would try to create a copy control as follows:
source: QT (quotation)
target: CQ (quantity contract)
say, take the existing record QT->AA (just an example) highlight it and hit 'Copy As'. Type 'CQ' in Target SalesDocTyp field.
hit Enter. Hit 'copy all'. (if you get a message regarding the "-" or "+" quantityt set this field blank (empty)
save it and test.
good luck!

Consolidating with two controlling areas

Hi
We are looking to implement JVA on our SAP system, and for this there will be requirement for a second controlling area to be created.
We see this as causing us problems regarding consolidation in BCS u2013 We were wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to consolidation in BCS with two controlling areas?
Thanks

I'm assuming that you are creating a second Controlling Area for a second year end (since you are looking at JVA)? If some other reason, don't bother with reading the rest of my post.
We are currently using two Controlling Areas due to the fact that we also invest in many joint ventures. Our corporate year-end is January 31, while many of the JVs are December 31.
For BCS, we are defaulting the Fiscal Year Variant to the January 31 value when the data is brought in via Load from Data Stream (we hard-coded the assignment in the mapping). Our requirement is only to consolidate for our corporate year-end, which is why we are able to do this. Since BCS is based on periods (and not calendar date), the data is brought in as follows: December 31 year-ends come in a month ahead (i.e. the month of January data is actually period 12 of the previous year for BCS, even though it is actually that company's fiscal period 1, the month of February is period 1 of the following year for BCS, etc.); meanwhile, our January 31 companies come into BCS in line with our corporate year-end (i.e month of January data is period 12 for both the company itself and BCS).
Hope this makes sense.

New Credit Control area not considering Recievable amount

Dear All,
We have created two credit control area "1000" and "2000" for a company. A customer should be assigned to one credit area only.
Mistakenly user have assigned wrong credit area "2000" for customers and transactions have been processed for it. Now the problem is that when i create correct credit control area "1000" and check the recievable on FD32 for new credit control area it is showing "ZERO" Balance for recievables. Is it possible that actual recievable are fetch up on new credit control area so that i can efficiently use it.
Thank you in Advace

Hi,
we can have multiple credit control areas based on req-
eg: client wants to restrict customer based on divisoin wise.
then we will maintain credit control area based on sales area
there 3 division in a comp: AA -BB - CC
thens sales areas will be:
1000-10 -AA
1000-10-BB
1000-10-CC ( assuming therez one sales org-1000 & dc 10)
now create 3 cr control areas- OB45
Assign sales area to cr Control area - OVFL
Assign permitted credit control areas to comp code - IMG- FA- AR&AP- Credit Management- Credit control account - Assign permitted credit control areas to comp code.
Now you can assign this Cr CA- by sales area wise in CMR & maintain the credit limits for each Cr CA.
So when ever your needs wants to do it by division or sales area wise you can do this.
Thanks,
Raja

Copy Controls

Hi Sap Gurus,
I am actually new to SAP.Could any one help me out when, where and how copy controls will be used in SAP SD. What are the steps we have to maintain.
Points will be rewarded
Regards
Edie

Copy control can be associated with the transfer of data between the various sales documents from a Quotation to Cash. Thus, copy control forms part of the document flow process. Copy control uses data at the header and schedule line level. Copy control determines which data is to be transfered, a copy control can be set to ensure copying of data at predefined time intervals. Similarly, with copy control one can also specify when to stop the copying process. Copy control is important in another way since it helps in determing wether new prices are used or not.

Copy control for invoice list cancellation

Hi Friends,
I wish to maintain the copy control for invoice list cancellation, as the case study as follows
My client maintain invoice list, but due to certain reasons ,one of the invoice from invoice list has to cancel , the error I am getting as "Sales document F2 cannot be invoiced with billing type LRS."
Also , explain as to what fields need to maintain in copy control for the same.
Kindly help me at the earlist
Thanks in advance
Shailesh

Hi
As far as I know, invoice cancellation or invoice list cancellation is not done by copy control. or...that is the one and the only document in SD which can be created without copy control.
I think it is only sufficient if you include the cancellation document type in the invoice list type in the configuration of Billing document types.
I think that alone should solve your problem.
Reward if this helps you.
