Dispute Case - Write-off entry

Dear Experts,
When we write off any invoice through UDM_AUTOWRITEOFF in FSCM, system Debits the Bad debts write off (P&L) A/c and Credits the Customer A/c. However, we want system to segregate VAT, Tax and Freight amount from Bad debts write off A/c. So that the entry would be VAT -Dr. Tax-Dr. Freight -Dr. Bad debts -Dr. and Customer -Cr. Please could you through some light on How to achieve this?
Thank you.
With Kind Regards,
Naresh B. Pandya

HI Naresh,
To my understanding there is no configuration in FSCM by which you can achieve what you have stated, since we want to achieve something in FI area by doing an acitivity in FSCM, whereas vice-versa would probably work. I can possibly think of a work around. You can post a normal write-off entry giving the tax code therein, which will clear customer open item, and post to tax GL as well. Now, since the open item (document) which was "disputed object" in FSCM - Dispute case, that object will get updated with resolved object as the new document posted. Basically, the dispute case attribute will reflect the changes that has occurred in FI (FI-FSCM integration). However, I'm not sure whether this amount will get updated in field "paid amount" or "written off" amount. You can simulate and check out.
I am also interested to know how you deal with this, so keep me posted.
regards,
TV.

  • Dispute Case - Write off multiple cost centers

    Hi Experts,
    I have a different requirement on automatic writing off of dispute cases. There is one collection specialist who handles multiple location customers. Each location/branch is created as profit center and in each location/branch there are many customers. So if there is a dispute case which needs to be written off for Customer A in Location A, the cost center needs to be A which belongs to Location A, similarly for other locations too, where ever the customers belongs to it needs to written off to that partcular location cost center.
    In settings of automatic write

    sorry experts, fat fingure, accidentally pressed the enter key, here is the continuation of the message.
    In customizing for automatic write off, i dont have the option except by person responsible and cost center. Location/branch is also equal to sales office which is assigned to the customer master.
    Is there a way we can address this requirement, could you guide which direction i need to move.
    Thanks in advance

  • Dispute Case write off to CO-PA

    Hi Experts
    I have an requirement, when writing off dispute case, for some reason code we need the write off to go to CO-PA. Could you please suggest how this can be done. I have tried the user exit, FDM_AR_DISP_WRITEOFF, but not sure how to start with. There is a field additional criterion in general ledger account folder where I specify the case type, reason,...... not sure what to fill in this field, this field is related to the badi.
    Can somebody provide me some directions, please.
    Thanks you in advance

    Hi,
    So basically you need to information from the invoice right? If so, when you write off your open receivable you can have the system look at the original posting. Retrieve the information from there (and that could be many lines since you retrieve that info from the invoice) and post to the P&L with the relevant COPA information from the invoice and to the correct P&L account for Bad Debt Write off. This then can also be many lines depending on the COPA information on the invoice lines.

  • Automatic Write-off Document in Dispute Case

    Hi,
    I was wondering once the dispute case is automatically written off, should the financial document should be updated in the dispute case, because technically the write off document is the resolved object in the dispute case.
    When i performed automatic write off, the accounting document is not updated anywhere in linked objects in any sub folder, however the dispute case was confirmed.
    Should it update or is there something needs to be done to update in the dispute case?
    Thanks.
    Jen

    Hi Mark,
    Thanks for your reply. In auto status changing, I dont have the option other than defining status for automatic reopen, written off and close. I did check the status, but its not relevant.
    Here is what I am looking for, the automatic written off accounting document should be available or updated under resolved objects under linked objects.
    Thanks in advance

  • Write off process in dispute management

    Can some body throw more ligght on the write off process in dispute management . Including configuration steps(t-code), level of details / AR-table affected etc.
    Thanks
    Nik

    In order to write-off dispute case appropriate confiuration needs to be done which includes assigning an "Escalation REason" to Write off a dispute case.
    This means that you have an option of writing off all dispute cases with a specific Escalation Reason.
    The impact of the write off would that the customer invoice is cleared and written off amount is debited to a GL account defined in the configuration. You also have the option of Cost Center to which this amount has to hit to analysis purpose.

  • Post Write-off from Disputes with Approval Process

    Hi,
    we want to post write-offs using the dispute escalation process. before the write-offs are posted they need to go for approval. is there any functionality within dispute mgmt which can be leveraged to post write-off from the dispute with approval

    Hi,
    When you set up the escalation proces with reason code write off you can do it in two ways. Set up a Workflow for the approval process. Escalations are specifically meant for that. This is possible with the standard workflow.
    If you want to work w/o workflow. Then you can have the responsible person go into UDM_disputes query all specific escalation reason and e.g. change status or maybe create a different escalation reason. (E.g. Write off request/ Write off granted)
    You can check if you can change the roles that certain functions can only set certain reasons.

  • Write off the asset

    Hi,
    Please can someone advice me how do we write off the asset.
    Regards,
    Parul

    hi
    You can call up the asset history sheet as a totals list, or as a detail list showing individual assets. The detail list shows the capitalization date for each asset, and, if applicable, the deactivation date and any transactions in the year being reported.
    There is a special history sheet version defined for showing special reserves for special depreciation. This version shows the
    ·        Initial balance
    ·        Allocation to special reserves
    ·        Write-off (depreciation) of special reserves
    ·        Write-off of special reserves due to asset retirements
    ·        Write-off of special reserves due to transfers
    ·        Closing balance
    Procedure
           1.      Call up the report for creating the asset history sheet (Info system ® Report selection ® Balance sheet explanations).
           2.      Enter the start parameters for the report. Make the following particularly important entries
    –         Company code for the report
    –         Report date
    –         Sort version that you want to use
    –         Asset history sheet version that you want to use
    –         Use the “current book value” indicator to specify if you wish to show planned annual depreciation, or the depreciation already posted.
           3.      If you have not posted the actual retirement of low value assets, you can use the asset history sheet to simulate their retirement (in order to minimize the transactions necessary for their retirement). In this case, enter the asset class for low value assets.
    You also need to specify a time period for the retirement simulation. Please note that the simulation time period must begin on the same date every year so that LVAs can be shown continuously and correctly in the history sheet. This fixed start date should lie in the distant past (for example 1900). Using the same start date each year ensures that LVAs, for which retirement has already been simulated, do not appear in the history sheet with their APC in subsequent years. In addition, the end date for the simulation time period has to be in a fiscal year that is still open.
    The same procedure applies for intangible assets.
    Graphic: Simulation Time Period
           4.      Limit the report as needed. If needed, make additional entries for lists created using batch input.

  • Good will write off issue

    Hi
    sap gurus
    i want to write off some amount against my goodwill account.
    we have uploded goodwill balance through uploading.
    which gives debit- goodwill & credit-upload account on starting of the year.
    now by year ending i want to write off some amount from the goodwill balance (10% write off). which gives debit to- goodwill writeoff a/c(p&l) and credit to -goodwill a/c(b/s).
    since goodwill is a reconciliation a/c manual entry is not possible.
    i have tried by using transaction ABMA. but it is asking for acquisition entry.
    plz reply .

    HI Steve,
    A Customer and Vendor have to defined as two seperate Business Partners.   In SBO 2007 the reconciliation feature has been enhanced where a Customer and Vendor could be reconciled easily.
    In your case, you could use an interim G/L to reconcile Customer and Vendor.  Or Create a JE crediting the Customer and debiting the Vendor

    Revenue Account 1000 Cr
    VAT on sales 121 Cr.
    When I am trying to do the write off(FP04 by using reason codes). System is posting the document as below:

       To Customer Account 1121.
    I would like to transfer the total amount to the expense account instead of transfer to VAT account, if I use some specific reason codes (Like Bankruptcy).

  • R12 - Accounts Payable & PO Accrual Reconciliation Report - write offs

    Hi,
    As a relative novice to Oracle I need some help.................
    My question regards the above which is essentially a "goods received not invoiced" report.
    I have a number of items on the report which I would like to write off for two reasons:
    (1) I have a small balance left which is basically the difference between the PO and the accounts payable column - in the region of 1p to 5p (therfore a housekeeping exercise)
    (2) Items that we've never received an invoice for (we've received the stock for free!). ie there is only an entry in the PO column of the report.
    For the above I would like a method of writing off these balances from the report.* This should therefore create a credit in my P&L account.
    Your thoughts please.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Getting Error while generating Dispute Case

    Hi,
    While creating Dispute for Down payment received for and invoice I am getting error "User XXX is not created in dispute case processing system". This case I am creating through FBL5N.
    Now if I enter another user Processor it says "Entry DZITO   does not exist in USR02 (check entry)"
    So can any body help me out in this.
    As I am new to dispute Management.
    Regards,
    Kiran.

    Hi Kiran,
    It seems that a processor is required for your dispute.
    You can check the attribute aligned to the dispute case.
    Within the attribute, there is a tick box against the processor field to indicate that this is mandatory.
    The second error is the user you entered for the processor field, is that the userid you entered is not a SAP user id.
    Please make sure that only SAP user ids are entered.

  • Project Billing "write-off" options

    I'm attempting to determine the best method of "writing off" transactions on direct projects that have been reported as billable, accrued revenue but will never be billed. Please consider the following narrative as an example:
    A consultant (consultant x) charges April time and expense to project 10001 in a billable capacity (charged transactions to a billable task). The transactions are cost distributed, revenue distributed and an invoice is subsequently produced. All cost and revenue transactions are produced, interfaced and ultimately posted to the general ledger in April. The month of April is closed in PA and the invoices for the April billing cycle are produced. Project 10001's draft invoice includes those charges reported by consultant x and is distributed to the project manager for approval. The project manager reviews the invoice review and determines that consultant x's transactions will never be billed and instructs the accounting group to write off the transactions.
    Challenge: we need a way to "write-off" (reduce revenue and change billing status) transactions that will allow for consistent reporting and measurement. Specifically, we need to be able to determine all write-off's (revenue/billing reductions) in a given period that relate to original transactions from an earlier or different period. In short, we want to establish a policy and procedure for consistently processing and reporting these types of conditions.
    Proposed Options:
    1) use the "special" non-billable adjustment option from either expenditure inquiry or invoice review to change the billing status from billable to non-billable.
    Pros:
    a) transactions will remain on the project in the capacity they were reported by the employee
    b) an adjustment record will be created in the PA_Expend_Item_adj_Activities table which will include the adjustment activity code (i.e. Billable Reclass, Non-billable reclass, billing hold, billing hold release, etc.)
    c) history of who created original transactions and adjustments is available (full audit trail)
    d) a reversing revenue entry will be created in the PA_Cust_Rev_Dist_Lines_all table which will allow us to track the dates (gl period) of the revenue adjustment and compare it to the original transaction dates.
    Cons:
    a) to the average users the transaction on a billable task flagged as non-billable with no corresponding revenue may look unusual because there is no description explaining why the adjustment existed. the only way to determine that revenue existed and was subsequently reversed is to look at item details- revenue details.
    b)The revenue write-off will be charged to the same accounts (revenue and inventory) that the original transaction was booked to but in reverse. we don't have the ability to deflect the "write-off" to a bad debt account versus a direct write-off of revenue.
    c) The employee's utilization calculations will be impacted by changing the billing status of the transactions and reducing the corresponding revenue. we may need to update the utilization report to reflect these types of transactions differently.
    2) use the "special" transfer adjustment option to transfer the transaction from the originating billable task to a non-billable destination task on the project in question.
    Pros:
    a) the average user will easily see that the transaction in question has been reversed and b) the revenue subsequently written off by the negative revenue on the reversal transaction
    c) an adjustment record will be created in the PA_Expend_Item_adj_activities table which will include the applicable adjustment activity code(s) (Transfer Back-out, Transfer Originating, Transfer Destination).
    d) history of who created original and adjustments is available.
    a reversing revenue entry will be made via e) the negative reversal entry created in the PA_Cust_Rev_Dist_Lines_All table.
    Cons:
    a) the original transaction is being altered (transferred) by accounting. the integrity of the transaction as it was submitted by the source employee may be compromised.
    b) there is no easy way for the average end user to know where the transaction was transferred to. the information is available via ad hoc reporting from database tables but looking at expenditure inquiry for a given project you will not be able to determine where the transaction went if it was transferred to another task and many tasks exist or if it was transferred to another project entirely.
    c) The revenue write-off will be charged to the same accounts (revenue and inventory) that the original transaction was booked to but in reverse. we don't have the ability to deflect the "write-off" to a bad debt account versus a direct write-off of revenue.
    d) The employee's utilization calculations will be impacted by changing the billing status of the transactions and reducing the corresponding revenue. we may need to update the utilization report to reflect these types of transactions differently.
    e) As a common practice, each project will need at least one "non-billable" task to capture such write-off transfers.
    3) use a write-off event (both revenue and billing) to reduce the project by the aggregate amount of all transactions in question.
    Pros:
    a) employee specific transactions and ultimately utilization results will not be impacted by the independent event transaction.
    b) by modifying our autoaccounting rules we will be able to book the "write-off" to an account other than a revenue account. (I believe, more research necessary)
    Cons:
    a) No link back to actual transactions.
    b) original transactions will remain untouched and will appear as though they were billed and will show up on the invoice and detail reports to the client along with an aggregated event for the total write-off amount.
    Any thoughts or opinions you can provide about the best practice in Oracle will be greatly appreciated.

    Diana,
    Here's another response from a (very) senior Projects consultant. Her comments are in CAPS, so they can be dinstinguished from your comments:
    "I recommend following the approach she outlines in Section 2, with the following additions:
    SECTION 2) use the "special" transfer adjustment option to transfer the Transaction from the originating billable task to a non-billable Destination task on the project in question. CORRECT.
    A) SET UP THE WBS TO HAVE A TOP LEVEL NON-BILLABLE TASK, ON EVERY PROJECT, WITH A TASK NUMBER OF :"WRITE-OFF".
    B) WRITE AUTOACCOUNTING RULE , BASED ON TASK NUMBER, TO ENSURE THAT ANY TRANSACTIONS CHARGED (TRANSFERRED) TO "WRITE-OFF" TASK WILL BE POSTED TO A "WRITE-OFF/BAD DEBT" ACCT IN GENERAL LEDGER.
    C) CREATE A DFF AT THE EXPENDITURE ITEM LEVEL WHICH CAN BE POPULATED AT THE TIME OF TRANSFER, TO INDICATE WHERE THE TRX IS BEING TRANSFERRED TO. IT IS TRUE THAT TRANSFER ACTIVITY REPORT WILL TELL YOU THIS AS WELL, BUT IF YOU
    WANT TO SEE IT ONLINE DURING EXPEND. INQ, THEN DFF IS FINE.
    D) AS TO CONCERNS ABOUT "THE INTEGRITY" OF THE TRANSACTION AS IT IS SUBMITTED BY THE EMPLOYEE BEING COMPROMISED, THIS IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE, BUT IF THIS IS A SERIOUS BUSINESS CONCERN, THEN I WOULD CONSIDER CREATING AN ALERT TO THE EMPLOYEE WHO ENTERED THE ORIGINAL TRX, ADVISING THEM OF THE CHANGE AND REQUESTING THEIR REVIEW AND OR APPROVAL OF THE TRANSFERRED TRX. I CAN SEE THIS BECOMING QUITE CUMBERSOME THOUGH, AND, OVERALL, ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENTS MANIPULATE TRANSACTIONS FOR ACCOUNTING PURPOSES ALL THE TIME AS STANDARD PRACTICE, SO I'M NOT SURE WHY THIS IS AN ISSUE HERE.
    E) AND LASTLY, IT IS TRUE THAT AS A COMMON PRACTICE, EACH PROJECT WILL NEED A
    'WRITE-OFF" TASK AS A STANDARD PART OF IT'S WBS-- SO WHAT? IT'S JUST ONE MORE TASK IN YOUR WBS. BUILD IT INTO YOUR PROJECT TEMPLATES, AND MAKE IT NOT CHARGEABLE UNTIL WRITE OFFS BECOME NECESSARY. AS TO UTILIZATION, THERE IS NOT ENOUGH INFO IN THE CLIENT QUESTION TO ADDRESS THAT ISSUE PROPERLY.
    THAT'S ABOUT IT. HOPE THIS HELPS.
    BEST REGARDS, PAT"

  • Dispute Case Key (Replicated) (0DPM_D10); what is meant by Replicated?

    Hi everyone,
    I am working on implementing FSCM Dispute Managment module. I have some questions regarding the new standard content provided by SAP for this:
    Earlier I have seen clients using the Stanadard InfoSet 0DPM_I0 for all the Dispute's reporting as it combines data from AR, Dispute Case key and 0Customer. But now I am seeing a bunch of new objects like 0DPM_M10, 0DPM_M20, 0DPM_C10, 0DPM_D10, 0DPM_DCAS_10 etc. provided by SAP as standard content.
    Does any one have any experience with this new content; can anyone explain me how this new content is useful. My client is reluctant against using the standard InfoSet as its is built on two DSO's; I have suggested to build a cube on top of them and can still use an InfoSet to combine AR line items, Disputes, Dispute case key and Customer. Correct me if I am wrong with thid statement.
    Also please let me know what is meant by a Replicated DSO.
    Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    SRV

    There are a few things to consider:
         1) The data is stored in deserialized form until it is read. The first read will deserialize the data.
         2) There is some overhead per-entry. 750MB/(3,000,000-30) = ~250 bytes per entry. Some portion of this is attributable to the per-entry overhead.
         3) How did you measure memory usage? Usually invoking <tt>System.gc()</tt> before measuring heap usage will clear garbage but is not guaranteed.

  • Vendor balance write off

    Hi All,
    Just would understand how this bussiness scenario is usually handled in SAP AP.
    We have a liability for 1000. The vendor agreed that we can settle it at 500., hence a payment is created for 500.
    So to make the vendor account outstanding balance to '0', what is the normal practice in SAP Payables .
    In AR , we have a write off account to take care of these cases.
    thanks,

    You can write off the balance and can clear in T.Code F-51

  • In my work  flow Invoice Details not geting  when Dispute case created?

    Hai Experts,
                          Im Working on Dispute case Workflow in FSCM module , I Created custom workflow for that ,
    when ever Disputecase created notification send to Processor and Coordinator for that i created one Zclass
    write the one of the that Zclass method for sending  the mail to processor and coordinator for those mail Id's,
    Its working fine but the problem is on that mail i have to send the Invoice details also ,
    for that im using the fm  'UDM_GET_BOR_OBJECT_KEY_INVOICE ' this FM not geting the data when dispute case is created,
    its working in foreground and background, but the problem is in workflow it  is not geting the invoice details.
    please help me on this,,,
    thanks in adv..

    Hello,
    "I Debug the FM, its throughs the Error
    'No Configuration for the wrokflow Wfno version 0000'."
    I doubt very much that the FM is showing that error. I assume you mean the workflow log.
    The step that calls the task that calls the method that calls that FM, is that the one with that error message?
    First check that the FM works in SE37 with the same inputs as when called from the workflow, and if it gives the expected output.
    Try replacing that step with a different one to make sure there's no problem with the workflow itself. Make sure the workflow is activated without errors and do SWU_OBUF.
