Document splitting for trading partner

Hi friends,
We have a requirement that the trading partner can also be split when posting FI document like profit center can be split. I cannot find characteristic of trading partner in config menu: Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger. Only fields of Business Area, Profit Center, and Segment can be added for document splitting. Is it possible to add trading partner as document splitting charcteristic?
Thanka in advance,
Jessie

Hi JPA,
Thanks for your information. I read the note 1085921 and found the below point which seems like more than the three fields can be split. We still can add custom fied to be split, right? but how?
2.1 New g/l scenarios
In order to split the posted items of a particular ledger by the selected criteria (SEGMENT, PROFIT CENTER, custom field [ZZxxx], etc.), the relevant new g/l scenario has to be assigned to this ledger.

Document Split for Currency Exchange while posting Incoming payment

Hi Experts,
Scenario:
> Post incoming Customer payments using F-28
> posting entered today (14 Jan 2009), but posting date is 30 Dec 2008)
> Tested in Clients 001 and 005 (same setup in terms of GLs, Customers, Vendors, etc)
I was able to post the incoming payment in Client 005. However, in Client 001, I got error message:
*Ex.rate diff.accts are incomplete for account 0000140000 (Trade Debtors/Customers) currency SGD
Message no. F5063
Diagnosis
The accounts for posting exchange rate differences could not be determined. For the specified G/L account and the specified currency key, the accounts are only specified incompletely. Either the accounts for the implemented exchange rate difference, the accounts for the valuation differences or the balance sheet adjustment account are missing.
System Response
The system cannot generate the exchange rate difference posting.
Procedure
By pressing ENTER, you achieve that the document is reset to a status without automatic posting. In another window, you can complete default settings for exchange rate differences and post the document afterwards.
Proceed*
When I clicked Proceed, the system took me to OBA1, with "Document Split for Currency Exchange" option highlighted in blue.
Does this mean that I need to create a new GL account to post Document Split for Currency Exchange?
Note: Setup for OBA1 both 001 and 005 are the same. But I only encountered the error in 001.
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks...

problem solved: add relevant Open Item GLs in OBA1 (Account Determination for OI Exchange Rate Differences)

XK01 - Company ID for trading partner - default value

Hi gurus,
I would really appreciate your help on this one:
I need to insert a default value in the "company ID for trading partner" field when creating a vendor(or customer).
The value must be inserted when using transaction XK01 either manually or via batch input. The automated integration process is the following:
my external data -> prgm RFBIKR00 -> batch input run for XK01
basically my ext data may have a company ID in which case I want to keep it.. otherwise, I want to insert a default value.
Has anyone ever face a similar need and found a great solution?
Here are some solutions I thought about:
- user exit SAPMF02K. Unfortunately, we cannot change the value of the field VBUND
- variant transaction. But it seems to not to be compatible with batch input mode
- workflow triggered by the vendor creation event that could modify the VBUND data.
(this one should work... but I am a bit reluctant to implement such a tools for such a simple need)
- copying RFBIKR00 into a specific developpment... not great as well.
- BTE 1421 or 1420 do not seem to be able to update this field either.
any suggestion?
Thanks in advance
regards,
Damien.

Hi Rajesh,
thank you for your answer. I am not familiar with field exits and had not thought about it.
I found this link on the forum : http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/enhance/fexits.htm that gave me additionnal info on field exits.
I will have a look on monday to see if it solves my issue, but it seems to be a very suitable solution.
I'll reward your answer as soon as I know wether it solved my problem or was only helpful :).
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Damien.

Consolidated companies 1300 and 001100 are different
The number of the affiliated company must be clear for the selected document type for all line items. In this case at least two different companies or a company in connection with a business partner who does not belong to a company are stated.
If you selected the correct accounts, you must enter the document with a document type that allows cross-company posting. Otherwise, please correct the entered account.

Umesh

Hi Umesh,
In two of the documents you are clearing one document must have the trading partner assigned to it and the other one will not have the trading partner. To clear the document either both the documents should have the trading partners or both should not have trading partners.

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!

Document Split for Manually Cleared Items

Hi SDN,
Is there a way to inherit the document splitting characteristics for manually cleared items? To give you an example, please see below scenario in General Ledger View
Invoice
Dr Expense                 Cost ctr 10001
Cr Trade Creditors      Cost ctr 10001 (inherited from expense item)
Payment
Dr Trade Creditors       (no cost center assigned)
Cr Outgoing Bank          (no cost center assigned)
Manual Clearing of vendor items via F-04
Dr Trade Creditors        (no cost center assigned)
Cr Trade Creditors        Cost ctr 10001
Dr Zero Balance Clrg    Cost ctr 10001
Cr Zero Balance Clrg    (no cost center assigned)
This scenario happens since the company has instances where payment comes first before the actuall invoice. In this instance, the document split function won't properly reflect the correct cost center assignment.
Is there a way for this to be inherited even for manual clearing (just like the one for bank reconciliation process wherein the cost/profit center assignments are inherited on the clearing items)
Thanks

Hello,
Yes, you can have profit center as a characteristic for splitting and inheritance too. Your scenario will work as below:
Invoice:
Dr Expense 1000 CC1   PC1
Cr A/C Pay   1000          PC1
In above invoice PC1 will be inherited from the expense line in which the user will need to enter the cost center, and profit center will be derived from the Cost Center master.
You make a payment:
Dr Vendor 1000      PC1
Cr Bank      1000    PC1
In above scenario, user needs to give a profit center in bank line manually or it can be automatically derived using FAGL3KEH setting for bank accounts. From bank line the profit center will be inherited to the vendor line.
Finally when you try to clear the vendor items using F-44, following entry will be passed:
Dr Vendor 1000 PC1
Cr Vendor 1000 PC1
Only if the profit center entered during the payment and invoice are separate, zero balance clearing lines will be hit.

Sam

Document split for previous year open item

Dear All,
We have upgraded from 4.6 to ecc 6.0 .I have a problem of document splitting .
Suppose there is open item of previous year i.e vendor and after 1.4.09 the liability is transferred to another vendor the system gives me error that' profit center field in line item 001 is not filled' which seems correct as open item before 1.4.2009 does not have profit center.If the same liability is paid through bank than bank a/c is maintained in 3kei and document gets posted.
Also when salary is paid ,some salary is deducted for paying lic premium so salary payable account is credited on 31.3.09 and after 1.4.09 the same a/c is debited and credit is given to LIC OF INDIA.
Both payable a/c and lic of india are balance sheet items and system gives me error while posting the documents.
If the same transactions are after 1.4.09 the system inherits prctr from previous transactions but since in above examples there is no prctr in previous documents the system throws error message
'profit center field in line item 001 is not filled' .
Kindly provide me suggestions
Thanks and regards
vijay

Hi,
Thanks for your reply,
Yes we have migrated on 1.4.2009 and test migration have been performed .
But my client is to close books of accounts so it is having the said requirement of vendor to vendor transffer,kindly suggest me other alternative

Document splitting for customer collection

I have a problem about document splitting, when we post customer collection on F-04 that is 1 check for different invoices (with different profit centers) the system is looking for a profit center.
I think this is because the document was charged to different profit center that's why there is an error on splitting.
Is there a way of resolving this issue? Please help, thanks a lot.

We have 2 invoices that are charged to different profit center:
inv#1 - Profit center 10003 $500
inv#2 - Profit center 10003 $100
we have a check collection of $600 posted this as special GL.
Then when we are about to clear this check to the invoices the system is prompting "Balancing field 'Profit Center' in line item 001 not filled.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
For reconciling associated companies, you can access these from the SAP application menu as follows:
SAP menu -> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable or Accounts Payable -> Periodic Processing -> Closing -> Check/Count -> Cross-System Intercompany Reconciliation
These programs provide more functions and flexibility, and they enable you to reconcile data across different systems.
You carry out the Customizing for these programs in the SAP Customizing Guide under:
SPRO> Financial Accounting or Financial Accounting (New) -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable Accounting -> Business Transactions -> Closing -> Count -> Cross-System Intercompany Reconciliation

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.

Deleting a Specific Agreement for Trading Partner

Hello Gurus,
I want to know that if i want to delete a specific agreement from the B2B console how can i achieve this, When i purge the Metadata or the Instace data all the agreements are getting deleted, Can anyone suggest that is this feature available in 11g.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Sandy

Sandy,
To delete a specific agreement, you will need to login to B2B console and navigate to the Administration-->Manage Deployments tab. Search for the agreement by specifying Name, Responding Partner, Initiating Partner etc. When the search returns the result, select the agreement in question and select "Inactive". Once the agreement is "Inactive", you can select it again and click "Retire". Select again and click "Purge". Note: Don't forget to select the "State" value (Active, Inactive, All etc.) before performing your search.
One other option is to select the active agreement and click "Inactive". Navigate back to the "Partners" page and select the trading partner. Next, click on the agreement name below on the "Agreements" pane and click the "X" (delete) icon.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Additional condition for document splitting for general ledgers

Hello,
I need to add another condition in GL, to split invoice by KBLNR. Is there any program that will adjust system to do this? I mean to expand FAGL* tables, and enable this condition (KBLNR) to be used in customising document splits of GL in SPRO?
Best regards!
Marcin

OK, problem solved. Some developer made a modification with developer key to standard. After patching his code was overwritten.
