Difference between "account group" and "reconciliation account"

Hello,
I am new to SAP and I would like to understand the difference between the "account group" and the "reconciliation account" that appear both in the vendor master records.
From what I read, "account group" is just a classification but has no "accounting" impact whereas "reconciliation account" (goods suppliers, overhead expenses suppliers...) do have an accounting impact.
However I am not sure so I would like a confirmation on that and if possible examples so I could really understand.
Thank you.

Hi,
The account group is a way to divide vendors into groups for reporting later on.
The account group is also the link to the number range and the field selection functionality.
Please refer the below link for more clarity.

Difference between account based and cost based in co-pa

hi friends,
what is main deffirencebetween account based and cost based in co-pa. what scenerio we use account based and what scenerio we use cost based.
Thanking u
suneel.

Hi,
It all depends on the OPerating oncern which you are going to use for the CO-PA implementaion.
For a account based Operating concern you can define accopund based copa.
For a Cost Based Operating concdern you will have tp define account based Copa.
You can create account based Copa on cost based operating concern and vice versa.
In most of the FI implemntaion is done before BW inplemetation and therefore Operating concerns are already defined by the FI people.
Thanks

Difference between Business area and profit center accounting

Hi Frnds,
Can any body explain about difference between business area and profit center accounting .

Hi
Business area will have many profit centers. For example Vehicle is a business area in a company. Vehicle can be cars and Bikes etc. Here Vehicle is business area and Cars and Bike are profit centers. In broad Vehicle is a profit center. But as it has sub areas those are profit centers. So profit centers cannot be replaced with business area and vice versa. We can replace business area by Profit centre, only condition is that it should be in same controlling area. The business area is more like a business unit of a company. You can have multiple profit centers within a business area.
Main distinguish factor is that distribution and assessment in possible in profit center but not in business area.
One more distinction is that Business area need not be attached to any organisation structure. But profit centres can be created only under the controlling area. Business area can be across controlling area.
Business area concept is used for making stragic decisions by the management whereas the primary purpose of profit centre accounting is responsibility accounting.

What's the difference between "Full Name" and "Account Name"

Just re-install a new OS X Lion. On the "Create Your Computer Account" screen, what's the difference between "Full Name" and "Account Name"?

Your computer name by default would be "John David Appleseed's Macbook Pro"
But you can always change that in System Preferences->Sharing
And yes, the first account you set up will be an administrator.

Difference in between account currency and functional currency

Hi Sap Experts,
What is the difference in between account currency and functional currency.
In which table account currency and functional currency will be stored.

Rajprabhakar
Moderator: Please, avoid asking basic questions

A Payer is the individual or company who settles the invoices foa a service or for delivered goods.
Whereas the account group determines:
Which screens and fields are necessary for entering master data
Whether you can or must make an entry in these fields
How master record numbers are assigned (externally by you or internally by the system) and the number range from which they are assigned
Which partner functions are valid
Whether the business partner is a one-time customer or one-time vendor.
Reward if useful.

Difference Between Database Schema and Database User Account ??

First i would like to know what an Oracle Database schema exactly is ?
And what is it for and also What is it's use ?
Later the exact "Difference Between Database Schema and Database User Account".
I googled about it but i'm unable to find out it's The difference,
Please try to explain in a simple manner........
Thank you very Much in Advance..........

Greate example. but i would like add one more point..
a user is a schema and schema is a user. but when this applies to the user that he become a schema, only if he has got some objects. so we can say while creating the user which dosent contain any objects called simple user account but afterwords when he has got an objects then we can say its a schema as the above user has shown you through the exampleIt is just word-play. There is nothing in like a 'status' indicator to say "USER_A is just a user but USER_B has become a schema". Many people use the terms "user" and "schema" interchangeably, and some very good DBAs will insist this is correct. I don't disagree with them even though I usually try to make the distinction.
In a typical application, all of the objects (tables, procedures, etc) that implement the app will be owned by a "application schema owner" - a user which exists for the sole purpose of owning the schema. Said user will have no privileges at all .. especially not CREATE SESSION. Except for possible maintenance activity no one ever actually connects as this user. User accounts are then given to actual humans who connect with their own accounts. The accounts have the necessary system and object privileges granted to them - via a role. One could also create a special account (let's call it APP_ADMIN) that is used for maintenance and batch operations within the application.

Difference between Cost Center and GL Account

Hi All,
I want to know that "what is the difference between Cost Center and GL Account."
Regards

Hi Vidya,
Few points:
1. GL is a FI object and used for external reporting, whereas cost centers are CO objects and used for internal management reporting.
2. In GL you classify the nature of expenses like telephone expenses, travelling Exp. Salary exp etc., whereas by cost center you decide where are expenses were incurred, like Production department, Mkt. Department, HR department etc.
3. You post the FI transactions at GL level whereas the cost center are assigned to those GL account for getting the more detailed information about the expenses.
4. GL accounts are P&L and BS account and only P&L expenses accounts are posted to cost cneters. And you can choose to post it by cost center or not by defining the GL as cost element. If you do not define any GL as cost element, it will not post to cost centers.
I hope it answers your question.
thanks,
Vivek

Difference between account assignment model and recurring entry?

difference between account assignment model and recurring entry?

Hi
Account Assignment model is a template used for document creation in which default values are provided for the posting of a business transaction.
An account assignment model may contain any number of G/L line items, and can be changed or enhanced as needed. Unlike sample documents, account assignment models may contain incomplete G/L line items.
A recurring entry is when an expense is distributed thru out the year or for selected period. You create the entry once and execute it during period end closing. Posting happens to related accounts only on execution in the period concerned.

What is difference between bus.Area and plant

dear experts,
what is difference between bus.Area and plant?
thanks
Rajakarthik.

Hi
Plant and Business Area are not the same.
Business Areas are configured in FI module as per the Product lines or geographical operations basis.
Where as The plants created in the logistics (General) module are assigned to the company code. That means all transactions taking place in the plants are posted to the attached company code in SAP FI.
You can post a business area to several company codes and use it for cross-company-code reporting.
The R/3 System uses a combination of plant and division to assign the relevant business area. When you use the R/3 System to automatically draw up accounts for business areas, you can assign only one business area to a combination of plant and division. Plants and divisions can be assigned and combined in several different ways.

What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product

HI Friends
What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product
What are the futures are availables in IS MIlls
Regards

Hi,
SAP R/3 is the central enterprise version. It is not specifically designed for any inducstry sectors and it can cater many of the industry types.
Is is developed for specific industries an for SMB's (small and medium business). It will have components specifically for the industry.
The SAP Mill Products component adds sector-specific functionality to an ERP system to satisfy the complex requirements of mill industries (e.g. metal, wood, paper, textiles, construction materials, and cable sectors).
These industry segments differ from others primarily in that the materials used have a large number of characteristics and variants. The materials in the segments listed above are also predominantly area-based (e.g. paper, textiles, plastic film) or length-based (e.g. cables, piping). Account must be taken of these material characteristics throughout the entire supply chain.
To cater for the particularities of these industry segments, SAP Mill Products features processes and functions that cover the entire supply-chain cycle from product design and configuration, through planning, order processing, capacity planning and production, to final delivery. Additional functions are available in costing and inventory management. SAP Mill Products are also integrated into Quality Management, Financial Accounting, and Controlling.

What is difference between u2018credit exposureu2019 and u2018credit limitu2019?

Hi
What is difference between u2018credit exposureu2019 and u2018credit limitu2019?
What transaction I can used for to see these tow information?
best regard
francoise

Credit exposure is total AR and open sales values. Credit limit is used for block sales documents if the total exposure will exceed the credit limit. For Example:
Credit Limit : 600
   Open AR ( Customer Balance) : 100
   Customer Open Orders (Order Quantity have been confirmed, but no delivery document is created) : 100
   Open Delivery (Delivery has been created, but no billing ) : 100
   Open Billing (Billing is created, but has not release to Financial Accounting): 100
So far, the credit exposure is 400. If a new sales order is coming with value of 260, the sales order will be blocked, but the credit exposure is still 400.
Then if someone release the new sales order , then the credit exposure is 660.
Hope this is useful for you.
