Document Splitting - Some doubts

Hi,
I have activated the Doc splitting but have some doubts:
1. I can see the vendor item getting splitted into different Profit center in the General ledger view. But in FBL3N it shows as DUMMY ( which i believe is Entry view). Now whats the Tcode to see the vendors Profit center wise.
2. Moreover if i see my FSV in F.01, its not as per the Profit centers.
So where to see it Profit center wise.
ON whole, i am interested in see the PCA wise my all balances without running all those F.5D & F.5E programs....SO how to meet the objective
regards

Have you run those reports.
The first one, gives you the total of the Vendor and then you can add to the drill down the Profit Center. This is a new GL report so it takes the data from FAGLFLEX and not BSEG, where the PC is Dummy.
if you want to know how and why your entry view is Dummy and your general Ledger view is different, this is due to the rules you have set in document splitting.
You will probably have a default Profit Center and you can also add in Profit Center, Master data config default values for GL accounts and Profit Centers, i.e. the recon account of the Vendor.
Lastly in terms of the PC in the general ledger view, it will be derived, i.e. from the P&L entry, however it will use the Cost Center, that is linked to a Profit Center and use that for the splitting.
Hope we are moving in the right direction here.

New GL document split-doubt

Dear all,
We are planning to configure New PC functionality on ECC6 system.
Segments are the locations/regions in which we have plants
Profit centers are product groups.
Now all the CC , PC and segments have been derived. Document splitting characteristics are based on Profit center and segment fields which are mandatory field and zero balance check also being activated. All the postings are happening correctly.
I have a doubt now: since bank and cash accounts are defined at Company code level if I have to make a contra posting how does the sytem derives profit center and thus segments?
In such cases where amounts cannot be assigned to any particular profit center or segment how is it possible to get complete balance sheet at segment level?
Please clarify.
Points will be awarded for useful answers
Thanks,
Vamsi

Thanks Marc for that Info.
Yes the only alternative in such cases is to assign a default PC and then adjust to segments later on.
In that case we will not be able to reconcile the balance sheet values for segments against the company code, since there will always be some amount left unposted on segments.
If you can throw some more light with some real scenarios that would be much more helpful.
Here is my mail id: [email protected]

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

Problem with document splitting and zero balance clearing account

Hi SAP Gurus,
We've already configured the document splitting functionality in our project, however we still encounter some issues with the outcome of posting documents. For some scenarios, the document split functionality seem to work. Below is such example
Scenario # 1
Entry View:
40 Expense (cost ctr 0001)
31 AP
GL view:
40 Expense (cost ctr 0001)
31 AP (cost ctr 0001)
However, whenever 2 GL items are included in the document, the document split functionality acts differently.
Scenario # 2
Entry View:
40 Expense # 1 (cost ctr 0001)
40 Expense #2 (cost ctr 0002)
31 AP
GL view:
40 Expense # 1 (cost ctr 0001)
40 Expense #2 (cost ctr 0002)
31 AP (no cost ctr assignment)
40 Zero Balance Clrg (no cost ctr assignment)
50 Zero Balance Clrg (cost ctr 0001)
40 Zero Balance Clrg (no cost ctr assignment)
50 Zero Balance Clrg (cost ctr 0002)
I was just wondering how come the AP item did not split accordingly to the cost center indicated in the entry view. Can anyone please assist me on this one? Thanks in advance and best regards.

Hi Milind,
Thanks for the reply.
I've done the below configuration and assigned cost/profit center update. It now works for profit center split. It still does not split accordingly per cost center though.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Financial Accounting (New) > Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) > Ledgers >Ledger > Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers
In the below configuration, cost center is not an available option. Unlike the profit center which is available here.
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Financial Accounting (New) > General Ledger Accounting (New) > Business Transactions > Document Splitting > Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting
The profit center split looks fine now, however the cost center split still is only reflected in the expense items and not on the AP item.
Any ideas on how to actually split the AP line items according to the cost center assignments ?

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.

New General Ledger - Document splitting

Suppose a vendor invoice of 1,000 EUR assigned to 2 cost centers, CC1 and CC2 (500 EUR on each). The corresponding profit centers are PC1 and PC2.
Entry view:
PK Acct Amt CC PC
31 Vendor -1000
40 Charges +500 CC1 PC1
40 Charges +500 CC2 PC2
As a result of document splitting, the system splits the vendor line item in two parts: 500 EUR on CC1 (>PC1) and 500 EUR on CC2 (>PC2):
General Ledger view (document splitting):
PK Acct Amt CC PC
31 Vendor -500 CC1 PC1
31 Vendor -500 CC2 PC2
40 Charges +500 CC1 PC1
40 Charges +500 CC2 PC2
We now enter a partial (manual) payment of 500 EUR relating to only one cost center (CC1).
The following is the result of document splitting:
General Ledger view:
PK Acct Amt CC PC
25 Vendor +250 CC1 PC1
25 Vendor +250 CC2 PC2
50 Bank -250 CC1 PC1
50 Bank -250 CC2 PC2
But if we draw a report by vendor by profit center, this is not correct. So, what I would like to have as a result of document splitting is:
PK Acct Amt CC PC
25 Vendor +500 CC1 PC1
25 Vendor 0 CC2 PC2
50 Bank -250 CC1 PC1
50 Bank -250 CC2 PC2
and the system geenrates then two additional clearing line items in the document:
40 Clg line item -250 CC1 PC1
50 Clg line item +250 CC2 PC2
Does someone have an idea on how to have the amount of 500 on only one cost center (with new GL customizing or else)?
Many thanks
Vincent

Dear Vincent,
You are way ahead of me, I am caught up at the below basic level
Entry view: ( basic data entry - FB60)
PK Acct Amt CC PC
31 Vendor 1000
40 Charges 500 CC1 PC1
40 Charges 500 CC2 PC2
From the above how to get the doc split as you have correctly shown below. I have done complete Doc split config, Controlling config etc in my co code, but some ever some settings are not done, hence perhaps I cannot see the doc split.
Your advise would be of immense help to me.
Cheers

Report for document splitting GL account

Hi
In legacy, when there were accounting entries across two profit centers (like HO transfer amount to its plant) then it would routed through Inter Division account. By doing this, HO would come to know amount receivable and payable from other plant.
But in new GL accounting in SAP ECC6.0, such entries are routed through Document Slitting clearing account. So my doubt is how will i come to know how much amount is transferred between two profit centers. Is there any standard report for analyzing document splitting account.

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.
best regards, Lawrence

Withholding Tax on Advance paid having issues with Document splitting

Dear Experts
Our client deducts TDS on the Advance amount paid and on posting of Invoices from the Vendors. The documents are posted with withholding Tax types configured for these purpose in F-48 and FB60 respectively. Document splitting has been activated in the system with all required configuration.
The problem arises when we try to clear the advance amount against the Invoice along with the balance payment in F-53 if the invoice has more than one expense line posted to different Cost Centers in FB60. The system gives an error message " Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 004 not filled ". Please follow the example given below for better understanding.
Advance posting:
vendor a/c....dr (Profit center 3)
To bank Clearing (Profit center 3)
To TDS on payment
Invoice:
Expense ....dr (Cost Center1 / profit Center 1)
Expense ....dr (Cost Center 2 / Profit Center 2)
To vendor a/c
To TDS on Invoice
Up to here the document splitting works fine with Profit Centers and segments getting displayed in all line items in GL view. The issue comes when we select both the documents in F-53 and try to pay out the balance amount.
Please note the issue does not crop up if we do not populate the withholding tax code while posting the advance entry. The system automatically posts to the relevant profit centers and segments in F-53. But this is not the business scenario.
Please let me know if somebody can throw some light on the above issue.

Resolved at our end by tweaking the splitting rule to match the Business requirement.

Document splitting issue plz..

hi all,
i have an issue here ;
we are using document splitting based on profit centers.
I posted vendor invoice in a company code 1 and clearing the invoice using company code 2.which will create a cross company posting and in both company codes the documents are posted.
I.E CLEARING CO.CD 1 INVOICE USING CO.CD 2.
IN company code 1 all the profit center assignments are proper.But for the co cd 2 line items the profit centers are not being assigned with the right one.It is defaulting to a default profit center.All the rules are good.But i think iam missing some thing.
Did any one ran into similar situation or any special settings to take care of ???
help me with this.
Regards.
Sai.

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 by profit center

Hi,
We are in a re-implementation scenario.Client is using the older version of SAP and the new version is ECC 6.0.The requirement is to activate the document splitting with profit center and segment as scenarios.(Charecteristics for splitting).As on the cutoff date we take the balances and upload the same in the ECC 6.0 system.The question is how these balances will split.How the customer and vendor line items will split.
Please clarify...let me know if you need further info.

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.

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.
