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.

Dwarak.

  • Document Splitting Profit center not filled in.

    Hi All,
    I wanted to check one scenario:
    I have document splitting activated on profit center field.
    I am trying to post a document as under:
    Line items as in <<<<entry view>>>>>
    Expense    Act     Dr  100         (CC1) (assigned to PC1)
    Expense    Act     Dr   200        (CC1) (assigned to PC1)
    Expense    Act     Dr  300         (CC2) (assigned to PC2)
    Balance sht Act   Cr  400         (PC1)
    Balance sht Act   Cr   500        (PC1)
              To Vendor Act     Cr   1500
    When I am posting this transaction system is giving me a error as Balancing field PC not filled in document splitting.
    My doubt is whether this error is correct in given scenario or can we determine a different profit center for the vendor line item in GL view in the given scenario.
    I already have defined a clearing account for document splitting.
    Your comments /feedback are highly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sameer

    i have doubt in your balance sheet items, what is that items are meant for?
    Elaborate the scenario so that help us to answer to your question.

    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.

  • 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!

  • Document Splitting issue - Business Transaction

    Hi SDN,
    I would just like to seek advise on our issue for Document Splitting, specifically on the business transaction.
    We understand that you assign this business transaction to document types.
    For our case however, we do have intercompany transactions, wherein we post to an Intercompany AP and Intercompany AR.
    That means we both have AR and AP items in one document.
    My question now is which business transaction should we assign to this Intercompany Document Type?
    I've checked the selections and these are the only business transactions that we can use.
    0000     Unspecified posting
    0100     Transfer posting from P&L to B/S account
    0200     Customer invoice
    0300     Vendor invoice
    0400     Bank account statement
    0500     Advance tax return (regular tax burden)
    0600     Goods Receipt for Purchase Order
    1000     Payments
    1010     Clearing transactions (account maint.)
    1020     Resetting cleared items
    I would like to seek advise from those who has implemented Document Splitting before.
    Thanks!

    Dear,
    I have never tried to consolidate both IC AR and IC AP document type.
    Ideal it should be bifurcated as AP and AR because for One company it will be Sale and other will be Purchase.
    Please bifurcate the same and then do the configuration related to Document Splitting.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Document split of a paymnt doc. for an invoice wit more than 999 line items

    Hi all,
    my question is . what steps should we take care of in the system, to make the the document Split automatically on a payment document when we post an Invoice with 1001 lines items in it. is it some thing in the config or do we need to update a table or???
    any kind of Input would be really appreciable, as i know this would be the same problem with all other clients too. who ever has more than 999 lineitems on their invoices.
    thanks in advance
    Jay

    The only option is to create a clearing account and post this first entry to this temporary account and in the second entry clear this temporary and complete the transaction posting. Example:
    Entry 1
    Account 1   Dr.  Line 1                        100
    Account 2  Dr   Line 2                          100
    Account 3  Dr.  Line 998                       100
    999 split Account  Cr.                                           300
    Entry 2
    999 split Account Dr.  300
    Account 4    Dr.  Line 1000        100
    Account 5    Dr.  Line 1001          100
    Account 6                        Cr.           500
    It is generally advised to split the transaction after 900 lines if document split is active in your client. Hope this helps. The same logic could be used for all interfaces and ABAP programes.

  • 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.

  • Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting

    hi all experts,
    could any one give me the path to Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting
    in sap 4.6 environment.
    kindly answer this queston urgently
    anil

    Anil:
    SAP Customizing IMG -
    > Financial Accounting ( New ) -
    >General Ledger Accounting (New)----> Business Transactions----> Document Splitting -
    > Classify GL accounts for document splitting
    Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting
    Each business transaction that is entered is analyzed during the document splitting procedure. In this analysis, the system determines for each line item whether it is an item that remains unchanged or an item that should be split.
    In order that document splitting recognizes how the individual document items are to be handled, you need to classify them. You do this by assigning them to an item category. The item category is determined by the account number. In this IMG activity, you need to assign the following accounts in the system:
    Revenue account
    Expense account
    Bank account/cash account
    Balance sheet account
    The classification of all other accounts is known to the system, so you do not have to enter them here. You can enter an account interval since the system recognizes SAP-specific classifications and does not allow SAP settings to be overwritten by your own settings.

  • Document Splitting is not displaying in GL view

    Hi All,
    I have done all the Configuration for Document Splitting.
    First question regarding document splitting is that why system is not allowing me to assign the item category 01001 for any GL in ECC 6.0 EHP 5, it is giving the following error.
    The (technical) item category 01001 is not permitted
    Message no. GLT1170
    secondly while posting a vendor invoice it is not showing the document splitting in GL view but in the Expert view it is showing the document splitting. my Question is why it is not showing the Document splitting in GL view while simulating..
    i am using only leading ledger, i have not configured any parallel ledger, is this error due to that.
    Please guide me as soon as possible.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hello,
    Some information for you regarding the item cagatory 01001 in relation to NewGL splitting:
    This catagory is reserved for line items which are "Zero-Balance Clearing account" line items. These are basically balancing line items in New General Ledger that are posted to balance particular document by the mandatory zero balance fields, ie. Profit Center, Segment, Business Area etc. When splitting is configured these mandatory fields required to be balancing to zero, the system posts line items of type 01001 to the specified Zero-Balance Clearing account automatically.
    In SPRO you can see the Zero-Balance Clearing account for your specified Chart of Accounts with the following path:
    Financial Accounting (New) > General Ledger Accounting (New) > Business Transactions > Document Splitting
    ...the select "Define Zero-Balance Clearing account". On the next screen select the line item and double click on the "Accounts" folder. Next you will need to enter your Chart of accounts and then you will see the specified account.
    In addition, Zero-balance clearing line items posted in a document have line item number "000" in the NewGL view of the document in transaction FB03.
    Kind regards,
    Declan

  • 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 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,

    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

    Ok Think I should put my question differently
    I have activated document split.....
    Leading and Nonleading Ledgers are also in use
    Now when i post a document it is split on the basis of Profit Center on the "OL" Leading Ledger view
    While in the "NL" it is not split.
    Is there a seperate setting for achieving document split in the Nonleading ledgers
