Document splitting method

Hi,
We set document splitting method at the client level. what if we would liek to change it later?
Suppose for one company segment reporting is not required and they have not assigned the scenario of "segment updation". Later if company becoems eligible for "segment reporting" can we add the scenario to the ledger and updating profit centres?
thank you

Hi
Expert,
Segement Reporting:
1. Select the fields for which you require a complete balance statement and for which you cannot accept any inaccuracies through unassigned postings.
2. f the indicator is set, then all postings where no value is set for the specified field after document splitting are rejected with an error message.

Hi,
Settings provided in document splitting rules are all standard sap ones.
Please use document splitting method 0000000012 and dont change any of the base item and item category.
Only make the following updations in document splitting node in SPRO:
a) Classify G/L accounts for document splitting
b) Define Zero balance clearing account
c) Define Document splitting characteristics for General Ledger Accounting and ensure to select profit center and segment as zero balance and mandatory field as ticked.
d) Activate document splitting
Apart from these, it is not necessary to change any of the document splitting details.
Assign points if useful.

Hi,
Sounds really strange.
Can you check if table entry in FAGL_ACTIVEC is correct? If doc-split is active with split method, you should see something like:

Document Splitting - Bank and Customer Invoice

Hi Experts,
I have document splitting method 0000000012 and under that Business transaction 1000 i have created a new transaction variant for the client specific requirment
Further for this combination i have linked item category 04000 for bank accounts with all categories attached to it and 02000 for Customer accounts with revenue attached to it
Now when i pass a customer invoice for profit center A and when i clear this using F-28 giving profit center B, the system is inheriting Profit Center A form customer invoice and for the bank line item it is split according to the base row which is Customer invoice hence both item reflects profit center A and profit center B which is keyed in totally ignored
My client requires that the inheritance from customer invoice needs to be ignored and the profit center needs to be updated as per manual entry. hence the entry should like the following
Bank Dr Profit center B
To Customer Cr Profit Center B
Profit Center Clearing A/c Dr Profit Center A
To Profit Center Clearing A/c Cr Profit Center B
I have not given automatically split tick in any of the linked categories
Please advice

Hi Expert,
Go to the below Path: IMG -- Financial Accounting (New) -- General Ledger Accounting (New) -- Business Transactions -- Document Splitting Activate Document Splitting
Here you need to UN-select the Inheritance Check box.
Inheritance: Indicator is not set ('UN-Select Check box ')
Lines can be left without account assignments, even if the document splitting characteristics in the document are unique. Exception: You have set the Standard Account Assignment indicator.
Inheritance: Indicator is set ('Select Check box ')
Indicator is set('X')
If the rule-based document splitting produces lines without account assignments, these lines inherit the document splitting characteristics.

Document Splitting: Assignment of Constant

Hi Experts,
We are having an issue with document splitting for Incoming Payments:
We have configured the following:
A. Financial Accounting (New) > General Ledger Accounting (New) > Business Transactions > Document Splitting > Edit Constants for Nonassigned Processes
- Assigned a Default Profit Center to Controlling Area

- Document Splitting Active for Method 0000000012
- Inheritance is on
- Standard a/c assignment is on, and the constant in A above is assigned <<<ISSUE>>>
The F1 Help on the 'Standard a/c assignment' check box states "Do not set this indicator if you have defined it as a required entry field in the activity for defining document splitting characteristics ."

Hi,
Since you have not provided any profit center during bank statement upload (as it just a posting, not referring any line item), profit center should be derived from either default (FAGL3KEH) or from constant assignment.
I would suggest to update the profit center through EBS search string (target as 'profit center) based on any reference from bank statement instead of going for a constant only for this scenario. You may refer below link for search string set up.

Can you please confirm if the following settings exist in your system in various IMG nodes.
1. Bank G/L account is assigned to item category 04000 (IMG node: Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting).
2. Document type KZ is assigned to business transaction 1000 and transaction variant 0001 (IMG node: Classify Document Types for Document Splitting).
3. In IMG Node "Define Document Splitting Rule", under the method that is assigned to your company code, transaction 1000 and variant 0001, you see 04000 as one of the item categories to be edited.
4. If the answer for (3) above is yes, if you double-click on 04000 item category line, the processing category is set to 1 (Splitting based on base item categories).
5. Now when you double-click on 'Base item categories', you see 03000 - Vendor as one of the base item categories in the list there.
Please respond with Y / N to the above questions and we can go from there.

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.

Assign a G/L Account to a Segment for Document Splitting

HI Experts,
Do you know if it is possible to assign a G/L Account to a specific segment?. I know and have setup the splitting method and rules, we have created item categories and base categories and splitting method. Document split is active and working fine. We have defined all different segments (MXC000, MXC0001, etc) in the Enterprise Structure section of IMG. On the other hand, I have an account for automatic postings 7300001 for the exchange rate differences when documents are posted in foreign currency.
Question is, is it possible to assign account 7300001 to a specific segment MXC0000 for example?. Since the postings to the 7300001 are automatic postings, is there a place in the system where I can assign my segment MXC0000 to account 7300001, thus automatic postings hit segment MXC0000 as well?
Reward points for helpful answers, Thank you.

Use Tcode FAGL3KEH and assign a default profit center such as XXXX .
In Profit center master data you assign "MXC0000" as segment.
System derives in this case the segment via Priofitcenter assigned in FAGL3KEH.
This is one way of doing.
Revisit the classification of GL accounts for document splitting and check whether the assignment to the GL account is "40200 - Exchange rate diff account "or not

Document splitting with constants

We are working on a document splitting project on ERP 2005.
Most of the config has been done and we are now testing.
The only scenario that is not working is where a profit center value is not entered in the journal but derived through a constant.
I have created a constant Z001, for a PC in the only Controlling Area.
There is no problem with the GL account, the account type, splitting rule, transaction and variant.
At GL view PC is a required field and in the constant rule I have created I have assigned a PC say 1000. When I post my journal it says
Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled
I can confirm the splitting method has the constant in it and inheritance ticked.
What have I missed?

Hi,
In first line item you enter the Profit Center in Profit center field.
And I am trying to do this document splitting, everything i configured and posted the document, but when i view in GL a/c view it is not showing the splitting mode. So if u got the correct result then
Please send the documentation with step by step process and how to enter the data in the system.

Document Splitting-Balancing field "Profit Centre"

I am trying to post an F-02 transaction as follows:
Salary & Wages   1000     Dr.   Cost Centre(A) & Profit Centre (A)
Salary & Wages 1000     Dr.   Cost Centre (B) & Profit Centre (B)
Salary Payable    2000     Cr.
But when I tried to post it, the system is showing the error that "Balancing field Profit Centre not found in item 3.
I am expecting that the item-3 as above should be split and inherit the profit centre information. However, the document is not split and the system is showing the error.
I cannot assign a default Profit centre to the item -3 . How can I reslve this error. Document type used is SA and it is 'unspecified posting' in the Document Spitting method 0012.
Please help out.

Dear,
Nikitha.
Isn't your system asking you profit center as your mandatory field ? If it is so just put your enter your respective profit center
and simulate the entry. ( In some cases enter your cost center system will catch assigned profit center from CC try out )
Follow the following path :-
IMG --- FA NEW -
General Ledger Accounting New --- Business Transaction -
Document Splitting -
Define Document
Splitting chracteristics for General Accounting.
Here is your PRCTR is defined mandatory.
If you untick it your system will allow you to post the document. But listen if you have activated segment also with that.
Your reporting will be of no use and result void.
In the SAP best practices it is said dont untick it if you have posted documents with same activated functionality
By unticking your profit center wise & segmental reporting will be of no use.
or do one thing go to down side of the same path a little you will see one transaction as Edit constants for non assigned
process select your constant and double click on assignment of profit center maintained there default profit center or
maintained dummy profit center 9999. Now your system will pick this profit center 9999 or your mentioned one
as your default profit center.
Or one more else thing you can do is by posting key make your profit center optional through its posting key's field status
group.
Hope this helps you to solve your issue.
Please revert back for further clarification.
Regards,
Pankaj.

Document splitting during fb60 not happening even its activated

we are making a simple entry
expense dr    6000     proft center 1
expense dr   4000      profit center 2

after we post our document what we should get is

            vendor     cr     6000    profit center 1
            vendor     cr     4000    profit cente   2
but its not happening
when we simulated this doc splitted document we get
expense   dr     6000     profit center 1
expense   dr     4000     profit center 2
            vendor     cr     6000    profit center 1

where is the problem or the error due to which it is not picking up the correct profit center or correct segment while splitting up the document.

where to check for authorisation?
secondly where we have activated in doc splitting we have ticked everything
doc splitting
inheritance and std acc asignment and for constant we have filled zabc which contains business area and segment and no profit center and segment contains 9999 as default profitcenter.

NEW GL document splitting

Some documnt types like SA will not get split by documnt splitting functionality and some document types like cash posting will get split according to the partner line items.....What are the functional reasons for not applying document splitting to few document types like SA. Also could you please list all the docment types that will not get split by new gl document splitting. And the account category types that will not get split.
Appreciate your response

It all depends on the configuration in the following nodes in SPRO.
Financial Accounting (New) -> General Ledger Accounting (New) -> Business Transactions -> Document Splitting -> Classify Document Types for Document Splitting
Financial Accounting (New) -> General Ledger Accounting (New) -> Business Transactions -> Document Splitting -> Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting
The reason (in standard config.) why document splitting does not happen for document type SA is because it is assigned to transaction 0000 (unspecified posting). For transaction 0000, you would not see any item categories in splitting rule configuration. That means, we are expected to give account assignment to each line item while posting using document type SA.
Again, this is standard configuration delivered by SAP for document splitting. If it does not suit the business requirement, it can be changed.
Following is SAP's IMG Activity Documentation for the first node above.
Classify Document Types for Document Splitting
Every business transaction that is entered is analyzed during the document splitting process. In this process, the system determines which splitting rule is applied to the document. In order that the system can determine the splitting rule, you must assign a business transaction variant to each document type.
To ensure that a splitting rule is used appropriately, the relevant documents must meet certain requirements. These requirements relate in particular to certain item categories that either must or must not be available. This information is specified for each business transaction variant and is checked against the current document during posting. If the document does not meet these requirements, the system rejects the posting.
Example
The accounting transaction 0200 (customer invoice), variant 0001 (standard), is delivered. In this accounting transaction, the following item categories are allowed: customer, value added tax, withholding tax, expense, revenue, exchange rate differences, and company code clearing.
Standard settings
With the document types delivered in the standard system, SAP delivers a classification for document splitting. This classification is a proposal that you need to check against how your document types are organized. You need to check whether the classification or assignment to a business transaction variant produces the desired result in document splitting.
SAP includes business transactions in the standard system. The item categories that are allowed for each accounting transaction are also defined. Accounting transaction variants are also included. These are additional limitations of the accounting transaction.
You cannot define additional business transactions. However, you can define your own business transaction variants to the the standard business transactions.
Activities
Assign your document types to an accounting transaction and a business transaction variant.
Further notes
Document splitting is essentially controlled by the document type. You should therefore ensure that the documents used for business transactions are assigned uniquely in document splitting to a business transaction variant and in this way to a splitting rule.
You may therefore be required to introduce more document types.
Example:
The document type SA is assigned to business transaction 0000 Unspecified Posting with variant 0001.
In the methods delivered, no splitting rules are defined for the business transaction variant Unspecified Posting (with the exception of company code clearing). If an account assignment is expected in these documents, it has to be specified for all lines. This means that the system does not project any account assignments to non-assigned lines due to the absence of a splitting rule.
However, this document type is generally used for a large variety of business transactions that would also have to be treated differently in document splitting. In such cases, it is necessary to define additional document types and to assign them to the specific fiscal year variants.
