Define Business Transaction Variants - Document Splitting

Hi there,
I was trying to define new Business Transaction Variants for document splitting, but when I clicked on 'New Entries'; the screen is in grey color and I'm not able to add new business transaction variants.
Any idea how can I add new Business Transaction Variants. Pls advise.
Thank you.

Define Business Transaction Variants (New GL) - transaction: S_AL0_96000709

Hi people,
I am Trying to create a New category inside the Business Transaction 0300 and Transaction Variante: 0001,
But the system shows me: "Choose the key from the allowed namespace" and not save the data.
Do you know what happend?
Thanks,
Rosana

Entries in Table T8G031 are pretty standard. Generally these would be suffcient for majority of business scenarios. Thats the reason you are seeing this warning message. But if you have a valid business reason, go ahead and add this. Read warning message before doing this.

Use of business transaction variant in QM notification

Dears
I have a issue with notification.
I have defined action box as below
SPRO>Quality Management>Quality Notifications>Notification Processing>Additional Notification Functions>Define Action Box>Define Functions for the Action Box
For a notification type, I have defined 3 actions
Yes, NO, TBD
I am usiong std function module - QM06_FM_TASK_SEND_PAPER in function and QM06_SEND_PAPER_STEP2 FM when saving field.
The difference is Code and code group + business transaction attached to above 3 action
for Yes - code gropup/code is ACTION/YES, business transaction - QN74
for N0   - code gropup/code is ACTION/NO - business transaction - QN75
for TBD - code gropup/code is ACTION/TBD - business transaction - QN71
I have created user status with status as Yes/No/TBD
I have attached thebusiness transaction(QN74, QN75, QN7 created aboveto user status status, Yes/No/TBD respectvely. "allowed and set" in OIBS-user status maintenance.
Hence while on clicking on action in QM notificatioon systems does 2 things
Task creation with code and code group mention above
User status mention above.
Till here it is fine, by mistake user clicked on No and he wants to change it to Yes...system is not allowing him to change it gives popup error that " The function you selected cannot be carried out: - Follow-up function: Variant 5", when I click on detailed info, no status is shown as preventing this action.
Did any one faced this type of problem? Is it a bug? Please help me.

hi
can you post the status profile you have created with the status number and the lowest and highest number,if for example you have status number as 10,20,30 for each status you can maintain the low and highest number
10        10   20
20        20   30
30        30   30
hence if the status number 20 is activated either you can assign the status with status no 30 and reassign with the same status number 20 you cannot able to reassign to 10 since lowest number is not between the limits

Business Transactions and Document Types

Hi eXperts !
Can anyone please explain these business transactions like when they are created, what is the document type related to these.
KOAE     Actual Settlement CO External
RFBU     FI Postings
COIN     CO Interface
RKU1     CO Act. Primary Cost Transfer
KOAR
Actually I need to extract a report in Project systems with actual amount paid to the vendor + all the actual cost but it shows only down payment (doc. type KA if i am not wrong) not the final payment.
Also please explain these document types because i can see them in my report but I dont really know what does it mean.
AA     Asset posting
AB     Accounting document
KA     Vendor document - This type of doc. is created when we do Down-payment to vendor (correct me if m wrong)
TZ     Vendor Document
KZ     Vendor payment - Doc. created when we do Actual Payment to vendor (correct me if m wrong)
SA     G/L account document
KG     Vendor credit memo

Substitute business area after document splitting or when creating document

Hi experts,
I have to do a substitution of business area after document spliting, but i saw in previous threads that it's not allowed by SAP to modify a document after spliting. So if i do this substitution when I create a document, for example in f-02 or fb01,is it possible? And how can I do? With user-exit or Badi?
I have a specific table which contains all business areas which I should put into the document:
BUKRS, GSBER
CompA, BA 1
CompB, BA 2
CompC, BA 3
Thank you for giving me some ideas.

If each Company code has a different business area, why do you need to populate it in the first place?
The definition of a business area is that is can cover a range of Company Codes, but not be directly linked to one. I would suggest your use for Business Area is wrong.
You are right about changes after splitting, however I would check with an ABAP'er on this or OSS.
Also, if you are saying Business Area is Company code dependent, then there should not be a problem as the Business Area posted to will be correct, as an accounting document can only be for a single Company Code.
You should have your business are validation, or substituion prior to document splitting.
Hope this helps, award points if useful.

Need help in defining the Transaction Variant using MM02

Hi Nani,
The transaction used to create transaction variant is SHD0.
Using this you can change the screens, for example is you want certain fields to get a default value in XD03 / MM03 etc you can do so with the help of transaction variants.
Also you can go thru this links for more help .... please go thru and I believe that you problem will be solved....

F-92 asset retirement-where document splitting is active

I have a situation where I have activated document splitting for the characteristics profit centre and segment. When i post an asset retirement however that the customer and the VAT postings do not get populated with profit center and segment. The asset disposal accounts, the assets, the gain or loss on disposal do have the profit center and segment populated.
I have made FSG profit centre required for customer, not required for VAT general ledger accounts
I have made the posting key 01 and 50 FSG- profit centre required and cost centre optional
Where else can i check. as i thought the customer would inherit the profit center from the cost centre in the asset being sold.

Hi,
This is surely related to Document splitting configuration
For Document type DR, what is the business trans. and trans. variant assigned ?
I think it should be 0000 (unspecified posting) and then create a new variant and assign the below categories:
Menu: Financial Accounting (New)-> General Ledger Accounting (New) - > Business Transactions -> Document Splitting -> Define Business Transaction Variants
01000     Balance Sheet Account
01100     Company Code Clearing
01300     Cash Discount Clearing
02000     Customer
02100     Customer: Special G/L Transaction
03000     Vendor
03100     Vendor: Special G/L Transaction
04000     Cash Account
05100     Taxes on Sales/Purchases
05200     Withholding Tax
06000     Material
07000     Fixed Assets
20000     Expense
30000     Revenue
40100     Cash Discount (Expense/Revenue/Loss)
40200     Exchange Rate Difference
80000     Customer-Specific Item Category
Assign the new variant to DR document under Financial Accounting (New)-> General Ledger Accounting (New) - > Business Transactions -> Document Splitting -> Classify Document Types for Document Splitting
Hope this helps

Document Splitting Rule

hi all
What is Document Splitting Rule?
regards
ch.suresh

Document splitting allows to display documents using a differentiated representation. In the representation, line items are split according to selected dimensions. In this way, one can draw up complete financial statements for the selected dimensions at any time.
Using the document splitting procedure, one can also create a segmented display of a (partial) balance sheet according to a set of legal requirements (for example, IAS) or according to areas of responsibility.
In addition, one can allocate at the time of posting additional costs (such as realized or valuated exchange rate differences) to the CO account assignment objects to which the costs relate. Assets can also be subsequently capitalized at the time of posting.
Document splitting has an effect on subsequent processes, such as closing operations, and on processes in Controlling (CO). One can use the document splitting procedure to split up line items for selected dimensions (such as receivable lines by profit center) or to effect a zero balance setting in the document for selected dimensions (such as segment). This generates additional clearing lines in the document.
For document splitting to be possible, the system classifies the individual line items as well as the documents. This takes place using settings in Customizing. Depending on how a document is classified, the splitting rule selected for a document specifies how the document is split and for which line items.
In the Implementation Guide, choose Financial Accounting (New) ® General Ledger Accounting (New) ® Business Transactions ® Document Splitting.
For more information on all the Customizing settings, see also the IMG documentation of the relevant IMG activity.
1. Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting
One needs to classify the individual document items so that the system knows how to handle them. One can do this by assigning them to an item category. The item category is determined by the account number. In this IMG activity, one needs to assign the appropriate accounts.
2. Classify Document Types for Document Splitting
Every business transaction that is entered is analyzed during the document splitting process. In this process, the system determines which splitting rule is applied to the document. To enable the system to determine the splitting rule, one needs to assign a business transaction variant to each document type.
3. Define Zero-Balance Clearing Account
Here one defines a clearing account for account assignment objects for which you want to have a zero balance setting when the balance is not zero.
4. Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting
Here specify to which document splitting characteristics document splitting applies, for example, profit center or segment. The characteristics that are specified should be maintained in at least one of the ledgers. one determines which characteristics are maintained in ledger by assigning scenarios or customer fields to ledgers.
5. Define Document Splitting Characteristics for Controlling
Here specify which additional characteristics are required to be applied in document splitting. The additional characteristics are not relevant for General Ledger Accounting. Instead, they are relevant for components in Controlling that use documents transferred from General Ledger Accounting.
The selected characteristics are only transferred to the specified line items when the account to which the postings are to be made can also take the characteristics.
6. Define Post-Capitalization of Cash Discount to Assets
Here define whether the cash discount that is applied in the payment of an asset-relevant invoice should be capitalized to the asset. When one selects this setting, the cash discount amount is not posted to the cash discount account in the payment document, but instead directly to the asset.
7. Edit Constants for Nonassigned Processes
Here define default account assignments (for example, a default segment) for specific line items in processes for which it is not possible to derive the correct account assignments at the time when the document is posted. This is the case if the required information is not yet available when the posting occurs.
8. Activate Document Splitting
In this IMG activity, activate document splitting. The splitting method used is that delivered by SAP as standard, which contains the splitting rules for the different business transactions. If this splitting method does not meet requirements,first define and then select own method in Customizing for document splitting
9. Settings for Extended Document Splitting
Here define own rules for document splitting and make the necessary settings so that the system applies the rules defined and not the SAP standard rules.
9. Define Splitting Method
Here define own method for document splitting. A splitting method contains the rules governing how the individual item categories are dealt with.
10. Define Splitting Rule
Here define the splitting rules for document splitting.Assign one or more business transaction variants, the account key for the zero balance setting, and the leading item categories for cross-company code transactions to a splitting method.
11. Assign Splitting Method
Here assign the splitting method to be used for document splitting after activation. If one wants to activate own splitting method, replace the standard method with own method.
12. Define Business Transaction Variants
Here one can define business transaction variants for the business transactions in document splitting

Change in document splitting for withholidng tax and partial payment

Hi
Document splitting is active in our system but documents are not splitting in following secnario:-
1. profit centre is not deriving in withholding tax line item while imcoming payment
2. in case of partial payment or on account payment, system unable to derive profit centre
To achieve above, somebody suggest following solution:-
create a new variant with the following settings:
Splitting Method 0000000012
Business Transaction 1010
Transaction Variant 0001
and add bank (analog to 1000/0001) and WT(analog to item category 05100)
OR
Splitting Method 0000000012
Business Transaction 1000
Transaction Variant 0001
and add customer (analog to 1010/0001), vendor (analog to 1010/0001) and WT (analog to item category 05100)
Unfortunatly I am unable to understand above solution.
Please revert step by step changes need to be carried out to achieve above configuration.
Regards
DD

Hi
You have been advised to create a new splitting rule, logically, which is correct. You need to first create the business transaction variant, where in you will tell the system what kind of transactions can happen in that transaction variant. In your case, with holding tax is automatically created at the time of incoming payments. In such a case, create a new transaction variant in the following path:
IMG>Financial Accounting (New)> General Ledger Accounting (New)> Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Extended Document Splitting>Define Business Transactions Variants
In this patth, create a new transaction variant, Z100 and assign all the item categories that you want or has been suggested earlier.
Thereafter assign this transaction variant to your splitting rule
IMG>Financial Accounting (New)> General Ledger Accounting (New)> Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Extended Document Splitting>Define Document Splitting Rule
Than to your Document Type for incoming payment you can assign the new transaction variant Z100.
If you do not want to disturb standard settings, use BADI AC_DOCUMENT to derive profit center for with holding tax in case of incoming payments.
You can alsi check the link

Below mentioned are the settings for configuring FI - Document Split.
To use document splitting, you need to make preparations and settings in Customizing.
Process Flow
Preparations: Before you can activate and use document splitting, you need to have created certain datasets for the existing documents. To do this, you need to migrate open items for document splitting. Add any missing document splitting characteristics in the documents to be split. This is obligatory if you have set these characteristics as required entry fields in document splitting
Standard Customizing Settings: You make the general settings for document splitting here.
Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting
You need to classify the individual document items so that the system knows how to handle them. You do this by assigning them to an item category. The item category is determined by the account number. In this IMG activity, you need to assign the appropriate accounts.
2. Classify Document Types for Document Splitting
Every business transaction that is entered is analyzed during the document splitting process. In this process, the system determines which splitting rule is applied to the document. To enable the system to determine the splitting rule, you need to assign a business transaction variant to each document type.
3. Define Zero-Balance Clearing Account
Here you define a clearing account for account assignment objects for which you want to have a zero balance setting when the balance is not zero.
4. Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting
Here you specify to which document splitting characteristics document splitting applies, for example, profit center or segment. The characteristics that you specify should be maintained in at least one of your ledgers. You determine which characteristics are maintained in your ledger by assigning scenarios or customer fields to your ledgers.
You also define how this characteristic is to be handled by specifying, for example, whether you want to apply a zero balance setting, whether the field is a required entry field, and the appropriate partner field.
5. Define Document Splitting Characteristics for Controlling
Here you specify which additional characteristics you want to apply in document splitting. The additional characteristics are not relevant for General Ledger Accounting. Instead, they are relevant for components in Controlling that use documents transferred from General Ledger Accounting.
The selected characteristics are only transferred to the specified line items when the account to which the postings are to be made can also take the characteristics.
6. Define Post-Capitalization of Cash Discount to Assets
Here you define whether the cash discount that is applied in the payment of an asset-relevant invoice should be capitalized to the asset. When you select this setting, the cash discount amount is not posted to the cash discount account in the payment document, but instead directly to the asset.
7. Edit Constants for Nonassigned Processes
Here you define default account assignments (for example, a default segment) for specific line items in processes for which it is not possible to derive the correct account assignments at the time when the document is posted. This is the case if the required information is not yet available when the posting occurs.
8. Activate Document Splitting
In this IMG activity, you activate document splitting. The splitting method used is that delivered by SAP as standard, which contains the splitting rules for the different business transactions. If this splitting method does not meet your requirements, you can first define and then select your own method in Customizing for document splitting (see the next step).
Settings for Extended Document Splitting
Here you make settings so that you can define your own splitting method if SAPs standard splitting methods are not sufficient.
9. Define Splitting Method
Here you define your own method for document splitting. A splitting method contains the rules governing how the individual item categories are dealt with.
10. Define Splitting Rule
Here you define the splitting rules for document splitting. You assign one or more business transaction variants, the account key for the zero balance setting, and the leading item categories for cross-company code transactions to a splitting method.
11. Assign Splitting Method
Here you assign the splitting method to be used for document splitting after activation. If you want to activate your own splitting method, replace the standard method with your own method.
12. Define Business Transaction Variants
Here you can define business transaction variants for the business transactions in document splitting.
Hope this helps you, if this is what you are looking for please assign points.

Document Splitting issue - Business Transaction

Hi SDN,
I would just like to seek advise on our issue for Document Splitting, specifically on the business transaction.
We understand that you assign this business transaction to document types.
For our case however, we do have intercompany transactions, wherein we post to an Intercompany AP and Intercompany AR.
That means we both have AR and AP items in one document.
My question now is which business transaction should we assign to this Intercompany Document Type?
I've checked the selections and these are the only business transactions that we can use.
0000     Unspecified posting
0100     Transfer posting from P&L to B/S account
0200     Customer invoice
0300     Vendor invoice
0400     Bank account statement
0500     Advance tax return (regular tax burden)
0600     Goods Receipt for Purchase Order
1000     Payments
1010     Clearing transactions (account maint.)
1020     Resetting cleared items
I would like to seek advise from those who has implemented Document Splitting before.
Thanks!

Dear,
I have never tried to consolidate both IC AR and IC AP document type.
Ideal it should be bifurcated as AP and AR because for One company it will be Sale and other will be Purchase.
Please bifurcate the same and then do the configuration related to Document Splitting.
Hope this helps!!

Pls assign points for appropriately.

Document splitting error in FBCJ Split transactions

When we enter more than one ltem in Cash journal through split posting with multiple cost center, the system is giving document split error. where as in normal fb50 transaction splitting is working fine. We are in Ecc 6.
suresh

Hello Suresh,
Thank you for the error message.
The document splitter will issue the error GLT2201 for an account assignment if the account assignment is set as 'mandatory' in your document splitting configuration but in the posting in question
no value is set for this account assignment. In this case, PRCTR in line item 001.
For document splitting to determine the account assignment value you can use inheritance and the splitting rule.
Inheritance will only work if the account assignment values are unique within the document.
If the values are different in differnt line items, then the system cannot know which value you want to
inherit and so inheritance cannot work.
By using the splitting rule, you can customise the document splitter to determine the values using the item categories and determine which item categories are based on the other item categories.
The item categories are assigned to GL Accounts, and these accounts would be used in the documents posting.
The splitting rule is made up of the business transaction variant (which is assigned to the document type used in the document which is posting) and the splitting method.
(An exception to the document type determination of the business transaction variant is when any of the transactions customised in transaction GSP_VZ1 are used.)
Please check the note note 684659 - point 3.
Please check also your document splitting customising according to the information which I have provided to you above. It should resolve your issue.
Best Regards,
Vanessa.
