CROSS COMPANY POSTINGS

Dear All,
     I am having a doubt regarding the cross company postings. The issue what i am facing is
I am having two company codes let it be A & B, now that co.code A had purchased from the vendor V and the payment to vendor V has to be made through the co code B.
But while posting the document it is giving an error stating that "maintain a unique company"
for that i had checked
1. two co.codes are assigned to the same trading partner(company)
2. checked OBYA configuration
3. checked OB60 configuration
4. doc type is allowing the inter company postings and trading partner
In which all the settings are perfectly done. But finaaly i am unable to post the document it is allowing me to simulate(even at the point of simulate i am getting 4 line items excluding taxes) but i am unable to post the document.
Hoping the guidelines for resolving the issue ASAP
with regards
Praveen

sure ravi from next time i will correct my self
the error i am getting is
A unique company code has not been assigned to company number XXXXXX
Message no. GLT0001
Diagnosis
Document breakdown is active in your system. In certain cases, a company code is derived from the company ID number, and this must lead to the assignment of a unique company code.
A unique company code could not be assigned to company number XXXXXX.
System Response
You cannot carry out the required posting.
Procedure
Assign one company code to company number XXXXXX.

  • Posting Level 01 documents allow cross company postings - unexpected

    hi,
    Previously users could not enter a PL01 document that crossed companies.
    Now they can.
    I had previously thought that this was not possible for PL01 but what is happening is
    when they enter cross-company postings (2 lines, one each to a different cons unit)
    the system creates 2 documents,
    with 2 balancing entry lines (one to each unit) to the clearing item
    - just as can happen when a PL20 or PL30 manual posting is to the same company but cross-profit centres.
    So my question;
    is this normal behaviour in BCS?
    was this always possible but the users just hadn't achieved it until now
    NB they are adamant that this was not possible previously, until the Support Packs were implemented sometime last year
    Finally, is there a way to stop it from happening?

    Concur with Dan.
    Most likely, that you've met the 2nd case: the DocType with configured  clearing ConsUnit was  attached to manual entry task. It might be not easily seen. Just check it out and remove if find.

  • Checking cross company postings

    Hello Gurus,
    I was trying to manually post a cross company code transaction just to check the process. I have assigned GL accounts (In txn OBYA) in both the company codes and when i was trying to post i am not able to see the cross company transaction happening. Am i missing any configuration or is there anything that iam doing wrong?? Kindly suggest me !!
    If there are any particular steps that i need to follow please let me know?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    T code to set up cross company code configuraiton is OBYA.
    Enter Company Code 1 and Company Code 2.
    Enter Posting Key and GL Acct in Company Code 2 for Posting Made in Company Code 1 and to be cleared in Company Code 2 (for both payables and receivables).
    Enter similar configuraiton for for Posting Made in Company Code 2 and to be cleared in Company Code 1.
    Cross Company Code Transactions
    A cross company code transaction involves 2 or more company codes in one business transaction. For a cross company code transaction, the system will post a separate document in each of the company codes involved.
    Examples for cross company code transactions are:
    •One company code makes purchases for other company codes (Central Procurement)
    •One company code pays for other company codes (Central Payment)
    •One company code sells goods to other company code
    Steps:
    •Create Clearing Accounts in each of the company codes.
    The Clearing Accounts may be GL Accounts, Customer or Vendor Accounts.
    •Configure the Automatic Postings for Cross Company Code Transactions by assigning Clearing Accounts for both the company codes.
    Creation of Clearing Accounts in both the Company Codes (FS00)
    Then at the time of entry in second line item you give in "new company code" field.
    it will work

  • Bank statment cross company postings

    Hi,
    we want some of the items in bank statement post to bank clearing account in another company code. How we achieve that
    Following are the details
    Company code = ABC
    House bank  =  def
    In bank statement from house bank Def there are items that needs to be posted to Company code = GHI
                                   Dr Bank def  company code ABC
                                   cr intercompany ghi
                                   cr  Clearing   company code GHI
                                    Dr intercompany ABC
    kindly advise
    Umang

    Hello,
    The SAP note 124655 explains the following:
    The electronic bank statement is not designed for cross-company code
    postings (this also applies to the manual bank statement). You can,
    however, create these postings manually, for instance by the
    subsequent processing of BI sessions or using Transaction FEBA.
    However, this can lead to unwanted results in the document display
    of Transaction FEBA. In this case, this is not caused by any errors
    but missing system functions.

  • Prevent CO cross company postings - cobl-bukrs ?

    Hi,
    the last time I created a CO validation to prevent cross company CO postings is so long ago, that I can not remember. But i remeber something like "sender comp code <> receiv comp code".
    I am trying to creat this again, but do not find the cobl field for receiving company code.
    The I fould KM 0120025231 0000491809 2006 (KB21N does not check company code for intercompany posting)
    where the solution is to be:
    Prerequisite: "No precondition necessary" TRUE              
    Check: COBL-BUKRS <> COBL-BUKRS                             
    Message: own created message ZZ 010 as a Message type 'E'   
    1. this prevents now all postings not only cross company
    2. I dont get the idea of COBL-BUKRS <> COBL-BUKRS (like if 1 <> 1 which could never happen)
    Hints highly appreciated
    Bjoern

    Hi Bjoern,
    Eli is right. I just had look at the old message. Basically she was right...you might have overlooked that she was refering to event "2"...hence the validation rule is:
    COBL_RECEIVER-BUKRS < > COBL_SENDER-BUKRS

  • Cross-company code postings - FI validation

    Hi,
    We start using the cross-company code postings (transaction OBYA) between company code A and company code B and have to give authorizations both company codes to the Finance users. The idea is to have a set of G/L accounts which are allowed to be used when company code A and B are posted via cross-company code posting.
    SAP recommends to implement a validation in FI to restrict the Intercompany scenatios. I attempted to create a FI validation for complete document (call-point 3) with no success:
    1)
    IC Rule: BSEG-BUKRS = A and BSEG-BUKRS = B and BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
    Prerequisite: TRUE
    Check: IC rule
    Message: E-  Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
    When I test it, the Intercompany clearing account configured in OBYA, and which is in ACCOUNTSET, shows up in the error message, which unwanted.
    2)
    IC Rule 1: BKPF-BUKRS = '0017' AND BKPF-BUKRS = '0005'
    IC Rule 2: BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
    Prerequisite: TRUE
    Check: IC Rule 1 --> IC Rule 2
    Message: E-  Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
    No error message is issued at all, even if the G/L account is not in ACCOUNTSET.
    Please advise what I am missing.

    Hi Nitin,
    Thank you for your feeback.
    I just wanted to clarify that the cross-company code posting is when company code A can intitiate a posting to company code B simultaneously (for example Intercompany re-charge, cash concentration, etc.). The trigger for cross-company code posting is the company code field on the line item. If company code A is in the header (BKPF-BUKRS) and at least one document line item filled up as company code B, the system created two documents for each company code, offsetting the Intercompany clearing account, configured in OBYA.
    For example:
    Posting via FB50: Leading company code = company code A (BKPF-BUKRS)
    Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200; Company code A (as a default)
    Item 2: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100; Company code B (manually changed)
    Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2;                        Amount 300; Company code A (as a default)
    The systen creates two postings:
    Posting 1: company code A
    Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200;
    Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2;                        Amount 300;
    Item 2: Debit ; I/C Clearing Account;              Amount 100;
    Posting 2: company code B
    Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100;
    Item 2: Credit;I/C Clearing Account;              Amount 100;
    The only connection between the two is the cross-company code number (BKPF-BVORG), which assigned by the system once posted, as a logical connection.
    I guess we could use a dedicated document type. If that's the case, how would the validation work then?
    Coudl you please share more details on the BTE option?
    Thank you,
    Inna

  • Value date cross company code postings

    Dear all,
    it is possible to influence the value date on a company code level via the transaction OB68. With this transaction you can state that the current date is used as the default value for the value date when entering line items.This works fine when posting a G/L posting within the same company code.
    When entering a cross company code posting, the indicator in transaction OB68 is ignored and the document date is used to be proposed as default value for the value date.
    Does anyone know which SAP parameters can influence the value date for cross company code postings ? If this is not standard SAP possible, does anyone already encountered this problem and, if so, how did one solve this issue ?
    Many thanks,
    Regards,
    Kristof

  • 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.

    FI Moderator

    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..

  • Restrict cross CO area postings and allow cross company code postings

    " There are two Controlling areas CA01 and CA02, for the controlling area CA02 the field CO code validation is inactive to allow cross company code postings ie., (Cost center created in one company code can be used as cost object in other company code ) Also this allows any WBS element created in controlling area CA01 as cost object in any of the company codes assigned in controlling area CA02,
    Due to usage of WBS element which is created in CA01 controlling area as cost object in company code belongs to controlling area CA02, business is facing problem while doing the settlement run with error message " Document data for list of origins does not exist"
    So, I have activated the field Co code validation in the controlling area CA02, which stopped the usage of WBS element between controlling areas. Also this had restricted usage of cost object between company codes with in controlling area CA02.
    Now is there anyway to allow cost object usage between company codes assigned in one controlling area (CA02) and restrict usage of WBS element created in controlling area CA01 in any company code assigned in controlling area CA02.

    Hi,
    As you have already activated the Co Code validation you cant restrict that only to WBS. But you can have another option
    Use the validation process to restrict these errors
    This may help

  • Prevent cross-company code postings for certain document type

    Hi all!
    I am looking for a possibility to prevent users from posting a "cross-company code posting" just for a certain document type.
    I checked validation rules and BTEs but without success. Do you have an idea?
    Thanks for any support.
    Michael

    Thanks for your reply. I have already tried to use a validation rule, but without success.
    It did not work as the relevant field "New company code" (NEWBK) in not part of BKPF or BSEG, but (only) of structure RF05A. Thus, I cannot use the field in a validation rule.
    Or is there a way to make RF05A fields available for use in validation rules?

  • Issue in Inter Company postings

    Hi All,
               Currently I face an issue with inter-company posting transaction. Let me explain the issue.
    Using ‘FB01’ we can create inter-company postings by giving G/l and New Company code fields in the first screen. Let us say there are two company codes 0020,0040.
    Giving these company codes and their corresponding G/ls in ‘FB01’ system creates 2 documents, one in each company code i.e, one document in 0020 and another document 0040. There will also be a link in the field ‘Cross-CC no’ which says this is an inter-company transaction.
    Following are my questions.
    1.Can I create the ‘INTER-COMPANY’ Postings using ‘BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST’ ?  We can create accounting documents in both company codes 0020,0040 using this BAPI. But these two are becoming independent entries in each company code without any link ( Like the above case ‘Cross_CC no’) between them.
    2.My another requirement is that I have to give an error message to user inside a user-exit while validating data. If I give message type ‘E’ inside the user-exit it is giving the message but the normal flow is halted. It is going out with a blank screen with error message and the transaction is not going further. Is it possible to give error messages inside a user-exit without obstructing the normal flow of any transaction? The transaction can also be executed in Background.
    Thanks for your help.
    Vinod.

    For question one I'm interested in doing the same thing.
    Did you get an answer on how to do INTER-COMPANY postings using this BAPI?
    BR and many thanks in advance.

  • CO-PA issue in Thirds Party Sales & Cross Company Code Sales

    Hi,
    In Third Party Sales with Shipping Notification and Cross Company Sales the CO-PA report is not reflecting the correct material cost.  CO-PA is updating the material cost directly from the Material Master. Cross Company sales condition type PI02 & IV02 is using for pricing. IV02 is working perfect, but PI02 is not !
    In detail, for Third Party Sales with Shipping Notification, no material is available in the stock. In material master the material cost display as $ 10/EA. But the Purchase Order value is $ 15/EA. During Goods Receipt time system is taking the cost as $ 15. While Billing time to the customer, system is posting to the CO-PA the material cost as $10/EA. FI postings are perfect, but CO-PA posting is not correct. CO-PA and P&L reconciliation is not matching due to this issue !
    Waiting for the help.
    Best regards,

    Have you considered using this user-exit?
    User Exits in the SAPFV45PF0E and SAPFV45PF0C Programs
    EXIT_SAPFV45P_001
    You can use this user exit to decide whether intercompany billing data is used in the profitability segment for cross-company code sales, or whether the data comes from external billing (external customer, sales data from the selling company code.
    Thanks,

    In user exit include ZXKKEU03 you should make the COPA COGS equal to the VPRS. Also you can't do a revaluation in COPA for the third party billing types.
    pls assign points to say thanks.

  • Cross company code downpayment posting error

    Hi,
    When I am posting cross company code downpayment in F-48 getting below error.
    "Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled".
    Vendor A/c (Company A)
    Bank clearing A/c(Company B) - Profit center 25000
    Problem it is not deriving the profit center for Vendor reconciliation A/c. I have used document type KZ, check boxes "intercompany postings" and "trading partner" are activated in this document type.
    Default profit center has made for Bank clearing A/c and Cross company code clearing A/c. Assigned Profit center 25000 for Company A also.
    Kindly advice where I am wrong, which is the correct document type to post the Cross company code transactions (Down payment:F-48, charging-off GL open item to Vendor) to derive the profit center for Vendor reconciliation A/c? Or
    How can I configure in New GL that the profit center should get derived from the Cross company code clearing A/c for above cross company code transactions?
    Best regards
    Shanid

    Hi Atif,
    Thanks again for your reply.
    Since we have made Profit center as mandatory in New GL charactristcs this will give the priority to enter the Profit center as
    Mandatory. As I mentioned earlier we required profit center in all lines.
    I have tried whatever you have said, still it is not working.
    It will be great if you give a solution for this.
    Regards
