Answer 1

You can only set up one OBYA entry for each pair of company codes.  You cannot set up different entries for different applications.  The entry set up for the pair of company codes applies to all cross-company transactions posted between the two company codes.
For example, one company might receive an invoice that contains expenses for multiple companies.  The invoice would be entered into the system as:
    Cr. Vendor Co.Cd. A
Dr. Expense Co.Cd. A
Dr. Expense Co.Cd. B
When the document is posted, 2 documents will be created - one in each company code.  The documents need to be balanced in each company code, so the system fills in the receivable and payable accounts from OBYA.
Co.Cd. A
   Cr. Vendor
Dr. Expense
Dr. Cross-company receivable
Co.Cd. B
    Cr. Cross-company payable
Dr. Expense
For a bank to bank transfer from a bank account in Co.Cd. A to a bank account in Co.Cd. B, the system is trying to make the following posting:
    Cr. Outgoing cash Co.Cd. A
Dr. Incoming cash Co.Cd. B
This posting will result in 2 documents:
Co.Cd. A
    Cr. Outgoing cash
Dr. Cross-company receivable
Co.Cd. B
Dr. Incoming cash
    Cr. Cross-company payable
To view existing entries, go into OBYA, fill in 2 company codes and Enter.  If an entry exists for the pair, SAP will display the details of the entry - if no entry exists, it will display a blank entry.  To see all entries, select Goto -> List (or click the List button).
OBYA is found in the IMG under Financial Accounting -> General Ledger Accounting -> Business Transactions -> Prepare Cross-Company Code Transactions.  You can read the IMG documentation to learn more.
