Discount in kind and GR/IR clearing account

Hello gurus,
we use conditions to automatically create items for discount in kind. E.g. when a user adds a new item for material A, a second item is created automatically for material B with price = 0, subitem category = 4 Discount in Kind: Exclusive Bonus Qty.
This works fine. The problem is, that the new item is not automatically marked as a free item and so commitment documents with value = 0 are created. Additionally, there is an item created in the GR/IR clearing account for every discount item (value = 0).
Is there any way to prevent this? I.e. stop SAP from creating the items on the GR/IR clearing account?
Thanks in advance
Alicia

Hello gurus,
ok, problem has been solved. The real problem was that accounting did not post GR for the free items as they should have. If they do, everything works ok. Otherwise MR11 is the only solution.
Thanks anyways

Migrating open POs and GR/IR clearing account balance

Hello gurus,
I've got the following problem concerning migration of open POs:
For example: In my source system there is a PO for 10 pcs. of some material. There has been a goods receipt for 5 pcs. (200$ each).
Now, when I import this order and the corresponding purchase order history into my target system (using LSMW), the target system creates the order, a material document for 5 pcs. and an account document.
But of course, our FI-team also has to migrate the balance of the 'old' GR/IR clearing account.
So, the balance in the source system is <> 0 (e.g. 1000$), because the 5 pcs. have been delivered but there has been no invoice receipt yet.
This balance is imported into the new system and then the open orders are migrated, generating an account document and thus, the balance is 2000$ afterwards.
This obviously is not correct, so I am sure that I am missing something, just what?
Thanks
Alicia

Hi,
1. There will be an open PO uploaded for 5 qty and price 200$ each
2. Opening Balance of Material - 5 qty and corresponding value to Stock A/c - 1000$
3. Also there will be Vendor Balances uploaded in the system as 1000$ against the invoice. (If the invoice is still expected then chec with FI Users if they can get invoice form vendor)
if no then do not upload initial stock entry of step2, create a PO of 10 qty and then do GR in system (SAP).

Vendor number in FBL3N and FAGLb03 - GRIR clearing account

Hi,
I have added a special field BSEG-LIFNR and when i run above reports, it is showing vendor number only against doc type WE and not against any other document types.
I wanted this facility to be available primarily to track GRIR account postings.
Can any one help me on this why only a particular document type shows vendor number and not the others.
Regards,
Rajanikanth

If your Purchase Orders are set up to be a 3way match then it is at the time of the Goods Receipt (WE) that the items are expensed. So if you are looking up the expense GL account then you will only see the vendor field populated on those line items where there was a GR done. If you are looking up GR/IR clearing account GL Accounts (usually a liability account) then the vendor field is populated for both the GR and IR transactions on those GL Accounts. That is at least my understanding of how that field populates. I'm not sure if there are any user exits that would allow us to change that or not.

Dummy profit center and profit center clearing account being used

Dear Gurus,
We are implementing ECC 6.0 and will have FI PCA.
I have 2 profit centers.(and one dummy profit center 9999)
1)RM common
2) FG1
When RM is issued to production order and order is confirmed, the goods movement are 261 and 101 respectively.
the entry at the time of confirmation is
Discription                          Profit center
Consumption of RM             9999
To RM inventory                RMCommon
FG Inventory dr                  FG1
To Factory output account 9999
What should actually happen is instead of 9999 consumption of RM should hit profit center RM common and instead of 9999 the factory output account should hit FG1.
The profit center clearing account is being used for the entry in the GL view (as opposed to entry view in accounting)
Only then will accounting treatment be correct.
I have checked field statuses of the respective accounts and they have profit center and segment as optional fields.
Can you suggest what may be wrong and where i need to change the splitting config.
Regards,

Hi
Profit Center is derived from the assignment of Profit center in material master in costing view.
In the production scenario,
Consumption of raw material Dr - PC of FG
Cr Stock of RM - PC RM
Dr Stock of FG - PC FG
Cr confirmation of production of the Finished goods - PC FG
The reason for that is the production order is created with respect to the Finished Goods, master data of the production order inherits from the Finished goods.

Problem with document splitting and zero balance clearing account

Hi SAP Gurus,
We've already configured the document splitting functionality in our project, however we still encounter some issues with the outcome of posting documents. For some scenarios, the document split functionality seem to work. Below is such example
Scenario # 1
Entry View:
40 Expense (cost ctr 0001)
31 AP
GL view:
40 Expense (cost ctr 0001)
31 AP (cost ctr 0001)
However, whenever 2 GL items are included in the document, the document split functionality acts differently.
Scenario # 2
Entry View:
40 Expense # 1 (cost ctr 0001)
40 Expense #2 (cost ctr 0002)
31 AP
GL view:
40 Expense # 1 (cost ctr 0001)
40 Expense #2 (cost ctr 0002)
31 AP (no cost ctr assignment)
40 Zero Balance Clrg (no cost ctr assignment)
50 Zero Balance Clrg (cost ctr 0001)
40 Zero Balance Clrg (no cost ctr assignment)
50 Zero Balance Clrg (cost ctr 0002)
I was just wondering how come the AP item did not split accordingly to the cost center indicated in the entry view. Can anyone please assist me on this one? Thanks in advance and best regards.

Hi Milind,
Thanks for the reply.
I've done the below configuration and assigned cost/profit center update. It now works for profit center split. It still does not split accordingly per cost center though.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Financial Accounting (New) > Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) > Ledgers >Ledger > Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers
In the below configuration, cost center is not an available option. Unlike the profit center which is available here.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Financial Accounting (New) > General Ledger Accounting (New) > Business Transactions > Document Splitting > Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting
The profit center split looks fine now, however the cost center split still is only reflected in the expense items and not on the AP item.
Any ideas on how to actually split the AP line items according to the cost center assignments ?

Link between bank account and clearing accounts

hi
kindly tell me where we will link bank account(main account) with bank clearing accounts
thanks
sreeni..

In customizing of Electronic bank statement, choose "make global settings for Electronic Bank statement".
In this use "create account symbols" for creating a symbolic account with the name of your choice.
Then use "assign accounts to account symbol" and assign your clearing account.
In "Define Posting rules", you can now use the symbolic name of the clearing account.

Auto clear in bank clearing account

Hi, all
We have our eletronic bank statement, and use Bank G/L account, General Clearing Account, Transfer/out account and vendor account for a whole outgoing payment process.
When I use FF.5 to upload a bank statement, it will CR bank and DR General Clearing Account, and then CR General Clearing account, and DR transfer out account. So we will have a credit 100 and a debit 100 amount in General Clearing Account, when I display the account with FS10n, I could find out a -100 and +100 together with balance 0. But in front of them are marked as RED light. What should I do to let this general clearing account to be cleared automatically? I've already ticked Open Item Management and Line Item display in FSS0.
Thank you.

Hi,
I know F.13 is one way. But as in SAP, via FS10n, the DR and CR entry is already combine together as 0 balance, is there any place I could setup, so that it will automatically cleared without any intervene?

Cenvat CLEARING account in Stock transfer order

Hi
Please tell way to clear Cenavt CLEARING account in intra company stock transfer order(Within same company code).We will not post any MIRO against the STO.
Thanx
Mani

Hi,
1. Create a Subtransaction type for STO in the receiving plant.
2. Copy the GRPO excise transaction type and change the clearing account
3. suggest the user to enter the sub transaction type manually during excise invoice capturing (when the material is received from the other plant only).
4. If you need some validations to avoid user entry mistakes, please take the help of ABAPer and incorporate some validations while capturing excise Invoice like checking whether the PO referred is Intra company or normal. etc...
For manual clearing, approach your fellow FICO consultant.

Inc. payments, two banks, same co.code, need different clearing account?

Hi,
Are company is going through bank transition in US, and Canada, and we process 820's that post into SAP using payment advices. So, we will be getting 820's from both banks in the transition. We are on ECC6.0.
**I'm wanting to know whether we should use one clearing G/L account for both banks, or one clearing G/L account per bank?** FYI. We will also be implementing EBS from the bank to debit the bank account, and credit the clearing account.
If I should be looking at two clearing account, what is the best way to achieve this?
The configuration for automatic incoming payment advice is configured:
Payment advice - 06 (payment advice from customer(EDI). and using posting rule BE01, which points back to G/L account in the payment advice configuration.     It does not look at the bank it's coming from to determine the G/L account to post to.
I do notice that there is Additional account determination keys which looks like an additional account could be used if I setup another custom interpretative algorithm. Is this a possibility?
Is there something else I should be thinking about in doing this process?
Thanks for help!!!

Hi,

Value difference for GR/IR Clearing Account in case of MIGO and MIRO.

Hello Experts,
One of our client has asked me about clarification regarding GR/IR Clearing Account shows different values when MIGO and MIRO posting. Scenario is that,
SEZ
Calculation of import Duty
Input goods
Material Base Value
       2,171,385
Landing Cost
             21,714
For computing Customs landing charges need to be added
BED @
10%
           219,310
Loaded in material cost
CVD, @
12%
           289,489
Credit taken
Customs Education Cess
3%
             15,264
Loaded in material cost
ADDL Duty
4%
           108,686
Credit taken
Customs Duty
           632,749
CVD
12%
           219,310
All duty
4%
           108,686
Cenvat
           327,996
CST
       43,427.70
2214812.7
Hence Material cost in GR/IR should be Rs. 22,14,813
Diff (2219092-2214813= 4279)
Whereas it is taking Rs. 22,19,092
My concern is that GR/IR Clearing Account consider only Material cost and non deductible tax amount i.e. CST which is loaded on material cost but system consider some different values, please check the above calculation. When user post MIRO in that case system automatically konck off GR/IR Clearing Account and post difference amount i.e. RS. 4279 to Inventory Account which is wrong. I dont know how system behaves in such manner.
Please giude me on this issue as soon as possible.

Issue in MODVAT Clearing Account and Rounding off of Excise.

I have one issue in MODVAT Clearing Account and Rounding off of Excise.
Example:
Material cost    100Rs.
Excise value
1. BED             10.5 Rs
2. ECes             2.1 Rs
3. HEces          1.3.Rs
At the time of GR
Material Ac Dr          100
     To GR/IR                        100
At the time of Excise Capture
We done the rounding of Excise value
RG23 A BED         11
RG23 A Eces          2
RG23 A HEces        1
   To MODVAT            14
At the time of IR . System create IR with reference of PO
GR/IR DR      100
MODVAT         13.9
    To Vendor         113.9
So here you can see that there is a difference of 0.1 in MODVAT account and hence we are crediting Vendor with the lesser amount here with 0.1 RS.
So we cannot reconcile the MODVAT Account
Less Payment to vendor by 0.1 Rs
So is there any solutions on that.
regards
Shayam

EBS upload didnot clear line items and post to Main Account

Hi
We are on ECC 6.0. Our user as usual uploaded the EBS (she was doing this for last 6 months). Every time all line items from the Check Issued Clearing account used to get cleared and posted to Main Bank Account and the checks were encashed.
August EBS was loaded in Sept 3rd. This time all 2000 odd checks are still lying in Check Issued Clearing account itself. Transfer to Main Bank account didnot take place.
Due to this the Checks are not updated with the Encashed Date and all checks are still shown as Outstanding.
What could be the reason for this?
Thanks
Vijay
Edited by: vijayakumar aluru on Sep 14, 2009 9:56 PM
There is no change to the customization and the bank file format (BAI) also remains the same.
Edited by: vijayakumar aluru on Sep 15, 2009 1:27 AM
Is there a way I can delete the bank statement upload buffer and reload the EBS?

i hope your issue would have got resolved, but below is my take on the issue.
please check the external transaction code given by bank in the bank statement. I believe the bank would have changed the external trannsaction code that is the reason, FF-5 could not clear your check items, as system was looking for the external transaction code and internal postings rules, which probably were not matching.
