Kindly guide me how can define rules for document splitting.
Kindly send FI new gl configuration guide to [email protected]
Thanks,
Ravi Vruddhula
Hi,
As per my knowledge SAP suggest we should follow the splitting rules as defined by SAP.However we can define our rules. U can copy the standard rules and modify it to suit ur requirement.The configuration path is as folloes.

Creation of new document types for document splitting rules
Hi experts,
We have copied from existing SA document type to new document type.
In standard SAP SA document type - define document splitting rule, we have select "NO INHERITANCE OF ACCOUNT ASSINGNMENT", when posting the GL document SA document type without mapping partner profit center,system is control the derive the partner profit center.
Our requirement is copied from existing SA document type to create a new document type - we have created the new dusiness transaction variant and we have map the "classify document type to document splitting rule " and we have selet the "No inheritance of account assignment" while posting in FB01 GL document with out mapping partner profit center system is not control the " derive partner profit center".
Could you please assist us as soon as possible
Thanks ,

In order to create a document type for a purchase requisition use the path
spro-materials management - purchasing--purchase requisitions --define document type
in that screen you select the document type you want to copy to create your document type and perform the action.
if you want to change the screen/field selection for your document type select the field selection key (if you select the document type as NBB the field selection key will be NBB.,and go to the screen and change the field status.
Hope this will be suffient for your requirement.

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

hi all
What is Document Splitting Rule?
regards
ch.sureshDocument splitting allows to display documents using a differentiated representation. In the representation, line items are split according to selected dimensions. In this way, one can draw up complete financial statements for the selected dimensions at any time.
Using the document splitting procedure, one can also create a segmented display of a (partial) balance sheet according to a set of legal requirements (for example, IAS) or according to areas of responsibility.
In addition, one can allocate at the time of posting additional costs (such as realized or valuated exchange rate differences) to the CO account assignment objects to which the costs relate. Assets can also be subsequently capitalized at the time of posting.
Document splitting has an effect on subsequent processes, such as closing operations, and on processes in Controlling (CO). One can use the document splitting procedure to split up line items for selected dimensions (such as receivable lines by profit center) or to effect a zero balance setting in the document for selected dimensions (such as segment). This generates additional clearing lines in the document.
For document splitting to be possible, the system classifies the individual line items as well as the documents. This takes place using settings in Customizing. Depending on how a document is classified, the splitting rule selected for a document specifies how the document is split and for which line items.
In the Implementation Guide, choose Financial Accounting (New) ® General Ledger Accounting (New) ® Business Transactions ® Document Splitting.
For more information on all the Customizing settings, see also the IMG documentation of the relevant IMG activity.
1. Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting
One needs to classify the individual document items so that the system knows how to handle them. One can do this by assigning them to an item category. The item category is determined by the account number. In this IMG activity, one needs to assign the appropriate accounts.
2. 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. To enable the system to determine the splitting rule, one needs to assign a business transaction variant to each document type.
3. Define Zero-Balance Clearing Account
Here one defines a clearing account for account assignment objects for which you want to have a zero balance setting when the balance is not zero.
4. Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting
Here specify to which document splitting characteristics document splitting applies, for example, profit center or segment. The characteristics that are specified should be maintained in at least one of the ledgers. one determines which characteristics are maintained in ledger by assigning scenarios or customer fields to ledgers.
5. Define Document Splitting Characteristics for Controlling
Here specify which additional characteristics are required to be applied in document splitting. The additional characteristics are not relevant for General Ledger Accounting. Instead, they are relevant for components in Controlling that use documents transferred from General Ledger Accounting.
The selected characteristics are only transferred to the specified line items when the account to which the postings are to be made can also take the characteristics.
6. Define Post-Capitalization of Cash Discount to Assets
Here define whether the cash discount that is applied in the payment of an asset-relevant invoice should be capitalized to the asset. When one selects this setting, the cash discount amount is not posted to the cash discount account in the payment document, but instead directly to the asset.
7. Edit Constants for Nonassigned Processes
Here define default account assignments (for example, a default segment) for specific line items in processes for which it is not possible to derive the correct account assignments at the time when the document is posted. This is the case if the required information is not yet available when the posting occurs.
8. Activate Document Splitting
In this IMG activity, activate document splitting. The splitting method used is that delivered by SAP as standard, which contains the splitting rules for the different business transactions. If this splitting method does not meet requirements,first define and then select own method in Customizing for document splitting
9. Settings for Extended Document Splitting
Here define own rules for document splitting and make the necessary settings so that the system applies the rules defined and not the SAP standard rules.
9. Define Splitting Method
Here define own method for document splitting. A splitting method contains the rules governing how the individual item categories are dealt with.
10. Define Splitting Rule
Here define the splitting rules for document splitting.Assign one or more business transaction variants, the account key for the zero balance setting, and the leading item categories for cross-company code transactions to a splitting method.
11. Assign Splitting Method
Here assign the splitting method to be used for document splitting after activation. If one wants to activate own splitting method, replace the standard method with own method.
12. Define Business Transaction Variants
Here one can define business transaction variants for the business transactions in document splitting -
Document Splitting at the time of Payroll Postings
Dear All,
I am getting a document splitting error while posting the accounting document from Payroll to FI. In my system the zero balance splitting is active for profit centre and business area. In the Hr Personal record using t-code PA20 we have maintained the cost centre and business area in each record. The payroll runs perfectly but at the time of posting the accounting document to the vendor we get the error "Balancing Field Profit Centre Not filled in item 001".
We are using the standard document splitting rule 00000000012, document type KA, Business Transaction- 0300, Variant 001.
The error is due to the document splitting but where to change in the splitting rule i m not getting the same. Can anybody help me with this.
Reagards,
Anurag GuptaHi,
Are you booking expenses of 2 or more cost center that belong to different profit center.
As per your example you given
There is no need of splitting the document
If there is more then 2 expenses line item and having diff profit center in that case only system split Vendor.
Kindly check and let us know.
Just for confirmation check below thing also.
1. Vendor Reconciliation account assignment to Item category (Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting)
2 Expense Reconciliation account assignment to Item category (Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting)
3.Document Type which you are using. and Business Transaction & Business Transaction Variant assigned (Classify Document Types for Document Splitting)

Document Splitting problem while posting asset acquisition using F-90
Hi,
We are using ECC 6.0 with document splitting functionality and are facing problem while posting asset acquisition using F-90.
The transaction entry details are as below:
Document Type - KR
Vendor Line Item PKey - 31
Amount - 10000
Asset Line Item with PKey - 70, Transaction Type - 100
Amount - 10000
The Document Splitting Rule - 0000000012 is used and the Field Status Group for the Vendor Reconciliation Account and Asset Reconciliation account have Cost Center, Profit Center and Segment as "Optional" field.
The Balance Sheet Item - Asset Reconciliation Account has been created as
Secondary Cost Element - 90.
The Profit Center and Segment field have been made mandatory and zero balancing is also set in the settings for Document Splitting.
While posting asset acquisition using F-90, we are getting the error message - "Balancing Field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled"
The first line refers to the Vendor Line item.
Please let me know how to overcome this error.
Regards,
RamanandPlease follow the below path and do config :-
IMG>FA>Asset Accounting>Integration with the General Ledger>Additional Account Assignment Objects>Specify Account Assignment Types for Account Assignment Objects
here you have to put KOSTL (Cost center) for both against APC and Dep run for each Dep area.
Thanks

My Finance Team requires automatic split up in bank based on vendor profit center.
We are using Business Transation 1000 (Payment) for document Type - KZ & DZ.
Regards,
LokeshCan 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 error..?
Hi Experts,
When i am posting with same exp with differenent profit center i am getting error as " profit center is not filled for line item 001"
Exp:-
Exp PC 1 Dr 500
Exp PC 2 Dr 500
Vendor Cr 1000
With the above details when i am posting getting error as "profit center is not filled for line item 001". Which i have not entered profit center in the vendor line. But as per my understanding, system should divide the vendor line item based on the profit centers given for the Expenses once i simulate. but system is not dividing the vendor line item.
Please send your inputs where i missed the configuration..?Hi,
Profit center should be populated for Vendor based on base item category (Expense) which is maintained in Document splitting rule config.
Please make sure the below configuration settings in Document splitting.
1. Use Document type KR to post the document.
2. Check whether KR is assigned to 0300 and 0001 as Business transaction and variant respectivelly in "Classify Document Types for Document Splitting".
3. Document splitting rule:
a. Check whether the combination of 0300 and 0001 is maintained
b. Check whether 03000 (vendor) category is maintained in "Item categories to be edited" with processing category - Splitting based on base item categories.
c. Check whether base item category - 20000 (expense) is maintained for 03000 (vendor).

Document splitting issues in Cross company code scenario
Hi
We have the following business scenario:
(Please note : Document splitting with Real time CO-FI integration is active)
1)one company(say, Co.code X) purchases on behalf of another group
company(Co.code Y)
2)the cost center of Co.code Y is given in the 'Account assignment' tab
in the Purchase order created in 'X'.
3)The PO is created in foreign currency
4)So, when the Goods receipt happens, the expense posting is happening
in Co.code Y and the GRIR entry is in X.
5)When the invoice is posted in co.code X, the Vendor Open item (in
foreign currency) gets created in X.
6)The problem occurs when Forex.valuation is done for the Vendor open
item. The Forex.gain/loss is getting posted in Co.code X by deriving
the Cost object from the expense posting in Co.code Y. Now, the system
is giving an error message 'CO object doesnt belong to X co.code'
I beleive this is the way document splitting normally works by deriving
the CO object form the original expense posting onto the subsequent
documents but I guess, it is failing in this scenario. Please let me
know if there is a work around to resolve this issue.
Regards
RaviWe normally do the independent splitting of documents in respective company codes (This being the limitation mentioned by SAP for cross company code postings).
In the document split configuration, for Define document splitting rule, check for the leading item for cross company code transactions, and check for the item categories to be edited. The following two entries will be there
1100 Company Code Clearing CC = CC of leading item
1100 Company Code Clearing CC <> CC of leading item
In case of independent splitting, remove the first entry and check.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi ,
can some one explain me the concept of document splitting when it comes to cross company code..how does document splitting work when a document has two company codes or for a cross company document..pls give a small example..
*help me out...looking forward for some inputs and appreciate your help
Thanks in advance.

Edited by: fico sap on Mar 3, 2008 5:52 PMHi,
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 Gurus,
I have the following issue at hand:
We posted several general ledger documents, however, the document splitting rules were incorrect and thus a great number of the documents were split incorrectly.
I have corrected the document splitting rules but need to correct the historical data.
Is there a way of correcting the new G/L Tables (FAGLFLEXA, FAGLFLEXT etc) based on the entry document view related tables (BSIS)?
Is there a standard program that compares the account assignments in entry view and the general ledger view?
Please also suggest how best I can correct the errors.
For a clearer understanding look at the following scenario:
Entry View
Line Account Amount Profit Center Segment
1 482000121 100 10234009 023
2 Account B -50 10014009 001
3 Account C -50 10014009 001
SAP Settings
In SAP Document splitting is active, Zero Balance Clearing per profit center.
The profit centers are attached to segments for segment reporting, however, since balance per profit center is active, the balance per segment was not activated. Please comment on this logic so that I can correct myself if the logic will not fly.
Based on the defined document splitting rules, the following was posted in the General ledger view
General ledger view
Line Account Amount Profit Center Segment
1 482000121 100 10234009 001
2 Account B -50 10014009 001
3 Account C -50 10014009 001
Note:
The profit center was inherited from the base item number 3. Which makes the profit center and subsequently the segment reporting incorrect.

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
DDHi
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.
You can alsi check the link
