Document splitting characteristic - functional area

Dear collegues,
I try to Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting - I need to do splitting by functional area, but although I assigned Scenario FIN_UKV - Cost of Sales Accounting, I do not see functional area as possible splitting characteristic.
Have anyone faced such problem already?

check
specially for gl master data and other things in
spro financial accouting global settings -ledgers-fields and try again

  • Define the commitment item as a document splitting characteristic.

    Hi, All.  I need your thoughts to solve this error message.
    When I was trying to deactivate document splitting for a company code, the below error message came up.
    "Define the commitment item as a document splitting characteristic."
    I was in Deactivation per company code and tried to deselect the box of "inactivate."  When I hit "save", this message came up. I am not sure where I should look in order to fix this. 
    I appreciate your kind help. Thank you!

  • Posting Document Split by Personnel Area

    PC00_M99_CIPE transaction has default posting variant SAP and this variant splits the posting document by based on company code.
    Is there anyone who can guide me how to create new posting variant which uses the Personnel Area? Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance!

    during the posting you cannot do a split.
    base is company code.
    if you need a split based on personnel are you can only do this via ppmod.
    because how should it look like after the posting

  • Deactivate document splitting for company code in IDES

    Hi,
    am not able to deactivate document splitting. When I try to deactivate and then save an error pop up show the message 'Define the commitment item as a document splitting characteristics ' .
    The path for Deactivating the Doc splitting is
    SPRO---Financial Accounting(New) --- GL Accounting(New) -Business transactions-- Document splitting -
    Activate document splitting------ Double click on Deactivation per company code.
    When i try in this path it will not allow me to save and it will not allow me to post any g/l entry also.
    Please Advise.

    I think the error is coming due to the other company codes for which document splitting is active.  Because, when you save (after deactivating doc split for your company code), I guess the system is checking the properties for other company codes in the same screen for which doc split is not deactivated.
    What document splitting characteristics do you have in your system?  And what are the settings there?  Check in SPRO -> Financial Accounting (New) -> GL Accounting (New) -> Business Transactions -> Document Splitting -> Define Document Splitting Characteristics for GL Accounting.  My guess is there is nothing in there.  Create (may be, PRCTR) as your document splitting characteristic, save, and then try deactivating doc split for your company code in the IMG node that you mentioned.  Not sure if this is the reason, but no harm in trying!

  • FAGLL03 doesn't display functional areas

    Dear All,
    Whenever we run the FAGLL03- Display GL line item report, it's not displaying the functional area value for some line items (for some it displays), even though the original posted document shows the functional area value. I would appreciate if anyone provides solution for this issue.
    Thanks in Advance........
    Arun

    Hi Arun,
    Check if note 1151397 is applied. Then check point 52 of note 1070629.
    The functional area is determined as in classic General Ledger
    Accounting. That is, the functional area characteristic is not
    determined until documents are saved.
    By default, after activation of New General Ledger, the reports only
    read the tables for New GL Accounting if the the indicator 'read
    from Classical GL' is not set in table FAGL_ACTIVEC.       
    I hope this helps. I'm taking a guess here since I don't know your system.

  • Document splitting not working in MIGO/MIRO

    Hi Experts,
    I have the following PO, Account Assignment Categories, F:  Expected double entries are as follows:
    MIGO:
    Debit GL: Expense
    Credit GRIR:
    MIRO:
    Debit GRIR:
    Credit Vendor
    At my expese GL, I have cost center filled in; and in entry view I can read the cost center / profit center (and also segment) in MIGO / MIRO double entry.
    Problem: But, when I click on the General Ledger view, both MIGO/MIRO double entries do not have profit center/segment split.  All of the cost objects (cost center, profit center, segment) do not exist in the General ledger view (these fields are blank).
    Question:
    Does anyone have any idea?
    I believe this should be document splitting settings which are not correctly.  Therefore, does anyone have working splitting method of these MIGO/MIRO function?
    Thanks in advance,
    sbmel

    Dear,
    Please check what is the splitting characteristics you have defined in
    SPRO>IMG> Financial Accounting (New)> General Ledger Accounting (New)> Business transaction>Document Splitting>Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting, check whether you have defined Proce Center and Segment as the characteristics or not.

  • Change Document splitting rule

    Our company has been live with the new GL and document splitting for 3 years.  The original splitting rule was set to split on the Business Area.  However we would like to change the rule to split on Profit Center instead of Business Area.  Is it possible to change the splitting rules without adversely effecting the system?

    Hi Michael,
    There is no harm in discontinuing the active rule but activating the inactive rule is really a big deal and SAP doe recommend this because it has potential threat. See below example.
    Only Business Area active as Document Splitting rule.
    Invoice was posted where there was profit center not populated for some reason and system did not give any error since it was not active field.
    Now you activate profit center as document splitting characteristic
    You clear the invoice posted above, system will give error like Document Splitting: Item for clearing not found which is irresolvable by the way of confguration change for which data has to be migrated using cockpit and that has to be done under SAP's Consultancy only.
    If you want activate Profit Center as a Document Splitting Characteristic then go ahead but do not select it as a Mandatory Field

  • OKB9 does not work to derive a Profit Center from Document splitting

    Hi GL Gurus,
    I am trying receive customer payment with payment difference. Original invoice has two Profit centers so Customer line items have these 2 PCs derived by Doc splitting. I have defined Document splitting characteristic as Profit Center in General Ledger and In Controlling as Cost center. While posting Customer payment with payment difference , It gives me error that CO object does not exist. I have done OKB9 assignement to the above 2 profit centers but it still does not derive a Cost center.
    Do you know how to resolve this error?
    Thanks in Advance!

    I have done OBXL and then OKB9. In OKB9 you have feature as "Mandatory fields for detailed account assignments.Field for specifying detailed account assignments." Here you can define for a Cost element/by Profit center assignment and then to a Cost Center. This works when you have a Cost element/Profit Center combination. But the situation above it does not read the PC derived in Customer line item.
    The issue is OKB9 does not Read the Profit Center when it is derived by Document splitting/Inheritance.
    Is there a solution to do this?

  • Document Splitting - GL allocate - Distribute and Assessment

    Dear Experts
    We are ECC 6.0. We have activated the New GL (which is default along with delivery), but not activated the document splitting. We are using profit centers through FI and able to see the profit center updation in tables FAGLFLEXA / T. Now we would like to start using of profit center distribution / assessments as periodic activities for all revenue / balance sheet account.
    Also we are using the funds and grants management. however the values are not updating the in FMGLFLEXA / T or PSGLFLEXA/ T tables.
    In the above configuration stage, i would like to know the following points from you
    Is it mandatory, to activate the document splitting for carrying assessment / distribution between profit centers under new GL
    Is it mandatory, to activate the segment reporting for carrying  assessment / distribution between profit centers under new GL
    If activation of above one / two elements are mandatory, is there any side effects of doing the same.
    I have gone through many SAP documents  like Migration screniors (http://service.sap.com/GLMIG) & SAP notes like 826357 / 1070629 / 1030497 etc. None of the notes are saying any inforamation when funds & grants are in active status.
    Kindly share with your views

    hi
    as far as I understand, document splitting clearing account is not for the purpose you mentioned (if you mean the clearing account in GSP_KD1). you don't need to analyze those accounts which are only for balancing.

    While posting we get an error..... profit center not derived on 1st line item
    Which business transaction / variant can meet this requirement.  If standard setup cannot meet this requirement than what Z-setup can help achieve splitting in above scenario.

    Once check Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting, De select the  profit center option in the Mandatory Column.

  • Document Splitting not happening

    Dear Friends,
    I have done the configuration required for Document Spitting.
    When i post a document with expenses and tax from two cost centres which has two different profit centres then according to principle of document spliting the tax amount for which i dont give any cost object should get split proportionately into two profit centres. but....
    this split is not happenning in GL view but when i see the tables related to document splitting the values are split proportionately and stored in the respective tables. but not reflecting in GL view.
    Can any one tell me what could be the reason for this...
    I appreciate your timely response...
    Thanks and regards
    SAP user

    Dear All,
    Thank you very much for your timely response...
    I have maintained document number range in FAGL_DOCNR. The document type is IF for non-leading ledger.
    My doubt is
    1. should i maintain IF in leading ledger also and maintain number range in FBN1.
    2. Should i classify IF document for Document splitting.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Business Area and Profit Center In Document Splitting

    Hi,
    We are using Business area and Profit Center characteristics for document splitting.
    In one transaction, the Business area and profit centers are defaulted through the cost center.
    The document is successfully split in respect of the business area, but the profit center is not filled, thereby giving error while posting.
    Please suggest.

    Hi,
    Actually, we have all three scenarios, profit center, segment and business area..
    As suggested, we have checked all field status relevant.. profit center is optional in all cases..
    Now, Pls consider the scenario without business area in document splitting characteristics..
    If I post an expense, profit center is picked thru cost center and segment thru profit ctr. The vendor or bank line item inherits the characteristic values from the previous line item.
    Now, in addition we have business areas in doc splitting characteristics.
    Business area, again is populated thru cost centers, along with profit ctr and segment.
    The business area gets correctly populated in the vendor line item.. but the profit center doesnt.
    Please let us know the reason..

  • Document Splitting Function in 6.0 dectvt & reactvt

    Dear All,
    At our client site, some user with access to customisation, deactivated the Document Splitting by checking the Inactive Tick for the Company Code.
    This came to light after some days. This directly affected out Business area balance sheet.
    Now client wants to reactivate Document Splitting.
    My question is -
    1) Can we do it now again?
    2) If yes, what problems we may face?
    We have started working on it.
    If anybody of you has any experience / suggestions, pl help.
    Thanks & regards,
    Gov

    Dear Gov,
    First you stop giving IMG authorization to users.
    u check for required fields in document splitting,
    and find when they de activated this function,
    if it is very period is very less or transactions are less u better to assign required fields in all those transactions before activating.
    If the splitting fields are not available system will not accept clearing transactions. and your statement of affairs also will show wrong information.
    you can activate at any point of time
