Cross-Company purchasing - Release 4.6C

Hi All,
The issue we are experiencing is specifically to do with SAP cross company purchasing, where we specifically want to raise a purchase order in company A against an outside vendor but against a cost centre in company B (no stock transfer involved) We also have 2 different purchasing organizations.
What needs to happen is the following:
1)     At goods receipt stage we need to get the following posting (against profit centres) u2013 this is working perfectly right now
In Company code B:
Debit Expense (against profit centre 2)
Credit Inter-company (against profit centre 3)
In Company code A:
Debit Inter-company (against profit centre 1)  
Credit GR/IR account (against profit centre 1)
2)     At Invoice stage we need to get the following posting (against profit centres) u2013 this is not working right now and this is where we need the help
In Company code A only:
Credit Vendor account (against profit centre 1) u2013 forced through with substitution - working
Debit GR/IR account (still sitting against the profit centre 2 u2013 we need this to be profit centre 1) u2013 not working
Debit VAT account (against profit centre 1) - forced through with substitution u2013 working
All we want is the expense leg to sit in company B against their profit centres. The rest of the postings we want in company A against their 1 profit centre. 
Thank you very much for any ideas.

Hi Experts,
Any suggestion on this?

  • To validate no cross-company purchase order in F-47

    Dear Gurus,
    I would like to ask if there is any user exit / BADI that can be used  to validate no cross-company Purchase Order(s) being entered in transaction F-47 : Down payment request.
    Kindly advise.
    Thanks & regards,

    The reason for error message M8396 "Deviating local currencies &&"
    is explained in note 317318:
    "You enter a cross-company-code invoice. Here, all involved company
    codes must have the same (first) local currency."
    In the MM module it is not possible to post a cross company invoice
    for company codes with different local currency. As you are aware the
    error message is M8396 issued.
    M8 396 was introduced in the system by note 317318 to prevent posting
    cross company invoices with deviating local currencies and to prevent
    inconsistencies in FI from docs posted from MM. This type of complex
    posting is ONLY supported in the FI module. For more information on this
    error message please also review note 321790.

  • Cross-company purchasing

    Hi,
    In my company we have a scenario where one purchasing org serving 2 co.code. This has been set up nicely in ECC, and we suppose to have the same scenario in SRM as well.
    First, I do this:
    a. Create company A and company B
    b. Create org unit below A which is linked to central purchasing org X in backend,
    c. Making sure that attribute BUK (Co.code) A, B assigned to purchasing org X.
    d. Create org unit below purch org X, and linked to purchasing group Y in backend,
    e. Create person Z below purchasing group Y, the attribute BUK of A, B is inherited to him.
    Using user id Z I make a test, create PO using cost center in co.code B, and it works well, the PO created passed to backend using purch org X, co.code B
    When testing creating PO using cost center in co.code A, it fail. It seems that somehow co.code B is defaulted in PO, and it trigger error saying cross-company purchasing not allowed (I think because I'm using PO with co.code B to charge Cost center in A).
    At first I hope that setting BOTH co.code for the purchaser will lead SAP to use location to derive the co.code, but I was wrong. SAP still take the FIRST co.code it found in the attribute.
    Then, I plan to use BADI for document change; and to my suprise there is no way to change the co.code in the BADI. So I'm stuck in here as well.
    Lastly, I did this:
    a. Moving purch org X (and all below, including purch group Y and person Z) to the root,
    b. I remove the attribute BUK in the purchasing org
    With this I hope that SAP cannot find the co.code from attribute and for the last resort derive the co.code from the location.
    Then when creating the PO, I got error message that SAP cannot derive co.code, and cannot continue
    Then I'm in dead end now. Is it really NOT possible to have central purchasing in SRM? This seems to be wrong. I mean as SRM is targeted to make procurement simple and regulated, it sure SHOULD think about central purchasing. Even in ECC we can have a central procurement serving 2 company codes.
    Or is there any other way? Appreciate if someone can shed some light on this.
    Best regards,
    John

    This is related to change co.code in PO. SAP give note 1079525 as how to change web dynpro so field co.code will appear and letting purchaser to choose co.code. This has solved our issue

  • Cross company Purchase

    Hi Gurus,
    It there a standard way of blocking cross company purchase order with some error message ?
    So far it is possible to create the purchase order, receive the purchase order and then we are blocked in the invoice, it would be nice to be blocked in the purchase order. We dont want to do the OBYA customizing.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi
    Yes company code is at the header level but you can make a purchase order on two different plant that belongs to two different companies. I want to allow a purchase order with different plants if they belong to the same company. And i want to forbid a purchase with different plants if they belong to different companies.
    I know i can ask a developper to do a check in a customer exit but i am sure (i think) that sometime when trying to do such a purchase order i had some blocking message like "Cross-company purchase order not allowed" or something like that
    But i can't find a way to activate this message

  • Cross Company Purchase / Sales Header Condition Posting to AP

    Hi All Expert,
    I don't know whether it is SD question or not,
    My company already config Cross-Company Purchase, for STO Purchase Order, and create DN using VL10b.
    Once create Invoice using VF01, it will generate AR and AP invoice using the EDI.
    The question is, now I want to add a surcharge to the AR and AP invoice.
    It is the percentage of the total amount base on the Material type, so I've add a condition table using VK11.
    Its work fine from retrieve the percentage and calculate the surcharge amount.
    I've also config the Account Key and generate the AR document successfully.
    However, I've no idea how to add the surcharge in the AP invoice side....
    I think it need to config the EDI.. but I cannot find the Account Assignment for the surcharge.
    Please give more information how to implement the surcharge.
    Thanks.
    Terry

    I've done it by another method.

  • Cross company purchasing and profit centre substitutions

    Hi Gurus,
    I am setting up cross company purchasing, which all appear to work sweet except for the profit centre determinations.
    As the delivery creates from a purchase order rather than a sales order, the profit centre substituions rules available via transacion 0KEM do not appear to apply.  For good visibility of results we would like our intercompany transacitons to be posted to a different profit centre than than standard profit centre of the material. Any suggestions?
    thanks,
    Brian Rowley

    For intercompany STOs you need to do following settings.
    1) After creating a vendor for supplying plant, you need to assign supplying plant in XK02 to vendor.
    2) Supplying plant need to be extended to company code of receiving plant in XD01.
    Then you should not be getting this problem.
    Thanks,

  • Cross company purchases in SRM 7.0

    Hi all,
    We recently upgraded from SRM 5.0 to SRM 7.0.
    Can anyone confirm whether we can configure cross company purcahses in SRM 7.0?
    For SRM 5.0,I saw few threads which suggested use of BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADi to change the purchasing group but in SRM 7.0 is this part of std configuration?
    Pls advise.
    Thanks for your time.

    What do you mean by "cross company purchasing" ?
    You buy some materials between plant A1 from company code A and supplying plant B1 from company code B ?
    If so, there is no limitation for this kind of purchase, neither in SRM 5.0, nor in SRM 7.0

    There is no link in SRM between company code and purchasing groups. Purchasing groups are only linked to Purchasing Organization with cardinalities :
    1 Purch. Org : n Purch. Groups
    1 Purch. Group : 1 Purch. Org
    For more details regarding purchasing groups, see thread below:

  • Cross company code purchasing process?

    Hi Hurus,
    I went through previous threads of cross company code purchasing...but got confused..
    could u pls all provide sime inputs as what is cross company code purchasing with example...
    i will be really grateful to u all..

    It is the usual Practice in the Business to have More than One Company Code ..
    And Each Comp Code there will be palnt for Business Process..
    If Plant A is Under Comp Code A & Plant B under Comp Code B
    If Plant A Requires Some material from Plant B , Then It is called Cross Company Purchase..
    Bcz The Balance Sheet ( Profit & Loss Statement) will be at Comp Code Level..
    Usually This Process is addressed in SAP as a Inter Comapny STOCK TRANSPORT ORDER
    The STOCK TRANSPORT ORDER is of Two Types
    1. Intra STO means with in Comp Code
    2.Inter STO Between Diff Comp Codes

  • Cross Company Charge

    Hello All,
    Does anyone know if standard SRM allows a user from one company code to create a shopping cart and charge it to another company code? Is this controlled through the org structure attributes or does it involve the use of BAdIs as well?
    Thanks for your help.
    Regards,
    SN

    Hello
    I did not get your question clearly.
    Do you want to create SC for cross company codes? What is your business scenario.
    For cross company purchasing, maintain multiple Compny codes with attribute BUK for the user in the org structure. Then in the SC you can select the company code you want.
    Charging to different company codes is something not logical to any business.
    You cannot select the CC from other company code as they are tied up to each other in FI and you will get an error.
    Reward points if helpful.

  • Cross company code Purchase Rebate

    Hi All,
    I want create a purchase Rebate for cross company code please let me is it possible if so what are the configuration I need to make.
    Thanks & Regards
    Chand

    Dear,
    Please check as SAP provides information that Rebate agreements can be made between purchase groups you can create cross company rebates.
    A rebate agreement in purchasing can also be an agreement on a promotional deal or disposal costs.
    A rebate agreement in purchasing is assigned to exactly one purchasing group.
    If a rebate agreement is agreed within a cross-company code purchasing organization, then a company code through which the reimbursements can be settled is created for the rebate agreement.

  • Cross Company Code purchasing

    Hi,
        Please help me to concept of Cross Company Code purchasing .
    I need a Document regarding this or configuration setting , its requirement from one of our client.
    So pls send me some document about the Cross Company Code Transaction.
    Thanks
    Mukesh

    Hi,
    Refer to the link given below.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/4d/4b9036dfe4b703e10000009b38f889/frameset.htm
    Even when the plants involved in a stock transfer belong to different company codes, you can use conventional methods to transfer the stock:
    By transferring the stock between plants in one or two steps
    By carrying out a stock transport order without the delivery function via Shipping
    By carrying out a stock transport order with the delivery function via Shipping
    In these cases, the value of the transfer posting is posted to a company code clearing account in both the issuing and the receiving plants. The stock transfer is posted at the valuation price of the material in the issuing plant.
    Stock Transport Order with Delivery Via Shipping and Billing Document/Invoice
    You can carry out stock transfers with the delivery and billing function. In this procedure, the stock is transferred in the form of a sale between two plants.
    Stock transfers that include deliveries and billing documents/invoices are only possible between plants belonging to different company codes.
    If you want to carry out a cross-company-code stock transport order with delivery but without a billing document, you must set the Relevant for Billing (data element FKREL) indicator in Customizing of the item type to "blank" (Not relevant for billing).
    When you use the delivery function in Shipping, the whole transaction - from the delivery through billing and invoice verification - is reflected in the system. The following Shipping functions are available for this:
    Delivery:
    For example, planning shipping activities, picking, packing
    Billing:
    For example, price determination
    Before you can use a stock transport order with the delivery function and a billing document, the plant must be assigned to a vendor. You maintain the vendor - plant assignment in the vendor master record.
    If a user enters a vendor when creating a stock transport order, the plant is automatically copied from the vendor master record.
    A stock transport order with delivery and billing is a mixture of a standard purchase order and a stock transport order: as in the standard purchase order, when items are entered (standard items with no item category) price determination is carried out and shipping data established; as in the stock transport order, the transfer of stocks from one location to another is monitored.
    Stock Transport Order with Valuated and Non-Valuated Sales Order Stock
    When entering goods issues for cross-company-code stock transport orders, you can work with both valuated and non-valuated sales order stock (E) using the one-step procedure (movement type 645) and the two-step procedure (movement type 643). In the MRP view of the material master record (MRP 4) you define from which stock material is to be withdrawn by selecting the Dependent requirements indicator for individual and collective requirements. There are three options:
    Indicator set to Blank (individual and collective requirements): material is removed from sales order stock
    Indicator set to 1 (individual requirements only): material is removed from sales order stock
    Indicator set to 2 (collective requirements only): material is removed from unrestricted-use standard stock
    Prices
    In Purchasing, the price of the material in question is determined in the usual manner (from the info record, for example).
    In SD, pricing is also carried out as normal during the billing process.
    Your company has to maintain settings in the Customizing system determining whether stock transfers between two plants should be with or without billing.
    You can also determine whether individual users can carry out stock transfers, for example, with or without billing or in either of the two ways.
    If you choose Purchase Order ® Create ® Stock Transfer (i.e. a stock transport order without billing) and stock transfer with billing has been defined for the plants in Customizing, a message appears indicating that you should create a standard purchase order.
    Regards
    Ravi Shankar.

  • External Purchase - Cross Company Sales

    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I have this requirement,
    1. Company (SIN1) buys raw material from external party (V001). Intercompany (SIN2) buys the material from Company (SIN1).
    Company (SIN1) wants external party (V001) to dropship the material to intercompany (SIN2). Company (SIN1) will  NOT perform GR (Goods Receipt stock from external part (V001)) or GI (Goods Issue to intercompany (SIN2). Intercompany (SIN2) will perform GR stock from external party (V001) (company (SIN1) selling it to them.)
    2. Company (SIN1) will mark up the price and sell it to intercompany (SIN2). E.g Buy raw material from external party (V001) for SIN $1 but sell to intercompany (SIN2) at SIN $1.50.
    Is there any similar process (like STO .. Cross Company Sales) for this new flow?
    Please advise.
    Thank U.

    Dear Seuw Lin Chong,
    I am facing the similar situation, that is, STO with third party process. Request you to kindly help me in sharing the process that you have used to address this scenario.
    We are having the same issue. The company one cannot do PGI and company cannot do GR. The problem is that for the first company's PO vendor sends the goods to the company 2. But, the company one has to atleast do a rough GR. and for the STO that had been created, they cannot issue the goods. The other problem is that the GR for the STO can be done for the goods sent by vendor,  but frieght cannot be added. We are in a bit of confusion.
    I am ready to provide all the information that you may require for this scenario.
    It wuld be of immence help if you can share your experience.
    Really appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.
