ECC FI and BW Reconciliation

Hello Gurus,
Im in FICO guy, im facing reconcilation problem with BW, the GL account balance in ECC doesnt tie up with BW GL account balance. Here the data extraction starts at 1:00 am GMT and we are in CST time zone. im not sure how to reconcile the daily data upload balance with ECC.
For example the data extraction starts at 1:00 am GMT, does it mean that i should take the ECC balance sharp at 1:00 and then compare with next day after data upload. Is it a right way of doing. or is there some other approach.
Another question is when i look at the extraction timestamp table it should 1:00 am GMT, does it mean, that whatever documents posted upto 12:59:59 is taken for data upload or how.
Im quiet confused can somebody helpme out.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
GJ.

First You can execute the BI query in background and you can program it for execution like a job and you can see the execution up to date.....but the GL extractor always receive data from all the contable posts.....the only way to have the exact match between two systems is executing the balance query for a closed period january or february.....try this and you can reconcile your data....
I hope this help you
Regards

What is the difference between ECC 5 and ECC 6.0

Dear Experts,
Can any one tell me in detail the difference between SAP R/3 versions ECC 5 and ECC 6 functionality wise in MM mdoule?
To be specific what are the new features in MM being added in ECC 6.0 when compared with ECC 5.
Request your help in this regard.
Rgds,
Uzair

Hi,
Refer following link;
[SAP ERP Solution Browser|http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/]
Following are the basic differences as far as MM Module is concerned;
Pickup list - Batch where-used list display in transaction MB56
u2022 Until release 4.7, the top-down and bottom-up analyses in the function pickup list for batch where-used list (transaction MB5C) were displayed only in the form of simple output lists. As of release 6.00 of SAP ERP Central Component, the function pickup list for batch where-used list branches to the batch where-used list itself (transaction MB56).
u2022 In addition, user can define how the data in the batch where-used list is displayed, in the initial screen.
u2022 User can use all the settings available in the batch where-used list. For example, he can expand transfer posting or display vendor batch. However, it is not possible to limit the selection to valid plants in the initial screen of the pickup list.
Usability enhancements for transaction MIGO for the posting of goods movements
u2022 For goods movements that refer to purchase orders as reference documents (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, subsequent adjustment), user can specify the ordering plant as an additional selection criterion directly next to the purchase order number and the item number.
u2022 There is a new default value: "copy account assignment fields." When entering other goods receipts, user can copy existing account assignment data from the previous item to use as the default values for a new item. To do this, user has to set the copy account assignment fields indicator in the default values.
u2022 User changes the default values in the menu path "Settings -> Default Values."
u2022 Goods movement is monitored with reference to a material document. When you enter the following goods movements, it is possible to specify a material document, such as the following, as the reference document:
- Goods receipt
- Goods issue
- Transfer posting
- Remove from storage
u2022 Note that these material documents must be documents that have arisen from a goods movement without reference ("Others") and that are not reversal documents.
New report : display list of invoice documents (MIR5)
u2022 Logistics invoice verification offers a new report display list of invoice documents (RMMR1MDI), w hich user can use to display such a list (Transaction is MIR5).
u2022 As an addition to the existing program invoice overview (transaction code MIR6), user have extended selection criteria and display options. For example, on the initial screen user can make selections by one-time customers, invoice gross amount, and entry date.
u2022 User can also show an expert mode, which enables him to select at plant level by FI document, GL A/c posting, and Material Posting.
u2022 In the output list, the report shows both posted and held invoices.
u2022 It does not show invoices without a corresponding FI document; such as invoices planned for verification in the background or which the software has already verified as containing errors.
Requirement prioritizations in materials management
u2022 With Requirement Prioritization functionality user can assign requirement urgency at item level in purchasing and reservation documents.
u2022 The software determines the relevant requirement priority (overall priority) of a material requisition from the combination of requirement urgency group and organizational priority.
Mass maintenance of outline agreements
The following two transactions available:
u2022 Mass maintenance for contracts: transaction code MEMASSCONTRACT
u2022 Mass maintenance for scheduling agreements: transaction code MEMASSSA
Commitment plan for purchase contracts
u2022 With the function of the commitment plan for purchase contracts, it is possible to pre plan value consumption for a purchase contract.
u2022 To this end, a commitment plan is generated for each document item of the relevant contract.
u2022 This commitment plan itself can have any number of items.
u2022 User can define a value and a validity date for each commitment plan item.
u2022 This enables user to pre plan different values for different periods of time.
u2022 The software generates an earmarked fund document for a defined commitment plan item.
u2022 This earmarked funds document can in turn contain several different items with different account assignments.
u2022 The software adopts these account assignments from the item account assignments of the commitment plan.
u2022 If a purchase requisition or purchase order references this contract, the earmarked funds document is copied into the purchase order, and the account assignment is adopted from that document.
u2022 Account assignment to a different account assignment object is then no longer allowed.
Availability check in "Enjoy purchase order and requisition"
u2022 Display and checking of availability are invokable separately in the "Enjoy purchase order and requisition" function, in line with the software behavior on the sales side.
u2022 User invoke the display and checking of availability in the "Enjoy purchase order" function (transaction code ME21N) and the "Enjoy purchase requisition" function (transaction code ME51N) as follows:
- To display the availability overview, choose the menu path "Environment -> Availability." - To check availability, choose the "Check Availability" icon.
- Until this release, if user carried out the availability check for an item of a stock transport order, the software adopted confirmations as per the desired date/time only.
u2022 Two settings are possible with availability check:
- Confirmation as per desired date/time (this is the standard setting and corresponds to previous software behavior)
- Delivery proposal - Full confirmation
External services: putting service items in the purchase order on hold (changed)
User can put purchase orders with service items on hold if these items do not contain any errors. Purchase orders with service items can also be put on hold if errors occur only at header level or as a result of the availability check.
Customizing transactions OX18 replaced by view
The assigned customizing transactions have been replaced by the following view in the following implementation guide activity in customizing for the enterprise structure: Assign plant to company code: transaction OX18 replaced by view V_T001K_Assign. One will find this activity in the implementation guide under the menu path "Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Logistics General -> Assign Plant to Company Code."
Goods receipt: new movement types in inventory management
The following new movement types are available in inventory management:
- 107: Goods receipt to valuated goods receipt blocked stock
- 109: Goods receipt from valuated goods receipt blocked stock
Prepayment of invoices
This functionality is characterized as follows:
u2022 User can trigger prepayment of vendor invoices in logistics invoice verification.
u2022 User use the prepayment function for vendors with whom organisation has a good, long-standing relationship.
u2022 The function enables payment soon after issue of the invoice and full exploitation of the date of required payment and existing cash discounts, by posting the vendor liabilities, taxes, and cash discounts in financial accounting in advance.
u2022 The software executes the payment of the invoice regardless of the relevant goods receipt and the outcome of the invoice verification check.
u2022 Most logistics invoice verification standard functions are not affected by the prepayment function.
u2022 When the software posts invoices, it continues to execute the standard checks.
u2022 If the software has already posted the prepayment document, user can make only restricted changes to the header fields of the invoice.
u2022 To ensure adequate and orderly financial accounting postings, a prepayment clearing account has been added to SAP ERP Central Component.
u2022 Upon prepayment, the software debits this account and then settles the account again after executing the check.
Purchasing accounting information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse
u2022 With the transfer of the purchasing account information to the former SAP Business Information Warehouse component (whose functionality is now part of SAP Net Weaver), it is now possible to maintain Info Cubes, reports, and queries that can determine how and where the costs from purchasing documents have been assigned and controlled.
u2022 As part of the software, a new data source (2LIS_02_ACC) has been created and the purchasing extraction process extended to cover the account information for purchasing orders, schedule agreements, and contracts.
Automatic settlement of planned delivery costs with evaluated receipt settlement (MRDC)
u2022 A new report (RMMR1MDC), available within the logistics invoice verification, can be used to automatically settle planned delivery costs.
u2022 To invoke the report, from the SAP easy access screen, choose the menu path "Logistics -> Materials Management -> Logistics Invoice Verification -> Automatic Settlement -> Automatic Delivery Cost Settlement" (transaction code MRDC).
u2022 Functionality for report RMMR1MRS is enhanced.
u2022 User can use the report RMMR1MRS, "Evaluated receipt settlement with logistics invoice verification (LIV)" (transaction code MRRL), to settle planned delivery costs in addition to goods and service items within logistics invoice verification.
u2022 To do so, set the relevant indicator on the initial screen of the report.
Parking service items
It is now possible to put service orders without errors or with commitment errors on hold.
Report MB5B : Stock on Posting Date
u2022 This Report is available with u201CNon-Hierarchyu201D display option which provides details of Opening, Receipt, Issue and Closing balances of Stock with quantity and value both for a given period.
u2022 This functionality is not available in Release 4.7.
Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations
u2022 Function of stock transport orders between storage locations is available from ECC 6.0 onwards.
u2022 As a result of which user can input issuing storage location with supplying plant.
u2022 Facility of using different delivery types for different issuing storage locations is available.
u2022 Shipping Point data can also be determined based on the issuing storage location

Thank you very much!

Hi Holger.
this issue is related to the RFC but not the one which is communicating from BI to R/3 rather the one which is communicating from R/3 to BI follow these steps.
1. check your BI system logical name from the myself source system.
2. go the ECC and run the transaction sm59
3. go the ABAP Connection folder and search for your RFC which name would be by default as per your BI logical system name.
4. double click it and edit it now check whether the Target hostname or ip is OK.
5. In the logon tab check the client number User and password settings.
Save it and test it with both Connection Test and Remote Logon.
if every thing work fine i hope your problem will be solved.
kind regards,
Zeeshan

Internal and External Reconciliations

I am looking to find out what the differences are with Internal and External Reconciliations.
I am not sure if I need to use Internal or External when doing Manual Reconciliations in banking.
Thanks!

I am trying to figure out how to use the bank reconciliation process. I keep seeing reference to an "expert sesion" and a link to it. However I get an Access Denied message when I try the link.
Help. ? If this "expert session" is on the Partner Portal, how are we lowly Customer to get it?
"External reconciliation is used for bank reconciliation , however when you go in detail , you have to use internal reconciliation for Business partner and Vendor .

FI and FM reconciliation

When the reconciliation analysis report is generated, there is a difference (in negative). Please provide me an explanation as to the cause of the difference and the possible solutions from FI and FM reconciliation tool perspective. Thanks.

Hi,
FM is not subsidiary of FI, therefore reconciliation between them is not obvious and depends on specific definitions made in FM update profile, budget consumption logic, etc. For example, you might have entries in FI with no FM documents (only update in totals) and, on the contrary, you can have consumption in FM (e.g. PO, EMF, etc.) with no impact on FI. Only if you use budgetary ledger functionality in FM, the reconciliation becomes more structured. Otherwise, you have to perform complete analysis of your postings in FM and take(or exclude) some entries depending on your customization.

Eli

Trusted and Target Reconciliation

Hi All,
Can we do trusted and target reconciliation from the same resource.I have to get email id and few attributes from ad on user profile and I need to do target recon for existing AD ids for further reporting and attestation. Can any one make recommendation for best possible way.
Regards
Nitesh

For trusted recon: do you only have to fetch some attributes from AD to be populated on the User Profile only one time for e.g. contracter end dates are normally stored in AD and after the users have been reconciled in OIM, the end dates need to be updated on the oim profile from AD for the users. Is this the scenario or do you need to do this on an on-going basis, meaning when those attributes change in AD you need it propagated in OIM?
If it is a one time thingy all you need to do is write a ST that will be run only once, to populate the required fields on the oim user profile of all users after day 1 recon has been completed.
if you need this on an ongoing basis, you can configure only an app recon and on recon update recd write an adapter to see what fields have changed on the process form, see if those are the fields that you need to propagate to the user form, if so then simply update the user form with the value that is there for that field on the process form.

Reconciliation and alternative reconciliation

Hi all.
Can any one tel me what is purpus of Reconciliation and alternative reconciliation.
what are all the banefits for creating them in sam.
please explain me clearely...
Thanku

Recon account: Every customer and vendor account will be assigned to a Recon account. You cannot post to a recon account directly. When ever a customer/ vendor account is posted in sub ledger , recon account is also getting posted in GL.
Consider the following entry:
Customer     Dr (Sub ledger ) 10000 USD
REcon a/c Dr (GL)                 10000 USD
Revenue    Cr (GL)                 10000 USD
While recon account will give you the total receivables or payables at any point of time, the individaul account will show you the details of the customer account. Recon account will always be in summarized form.
Alternate recon account:
There are some reporting requirements like down payments received or paid. These transactions should not shown along normal transactions and they need to be shown separately. They are called in Sp GL transaction in SAP. Every recon account is assigned to a alternate recon account with Sp GL indicator in the configuration. Whenever a transaction using the Sp GL is posted to the customer/ vendor a/c, they will be posted to the alternate recon account instead of normal recon account.
Special G/L transactions are special transactions in accounts receivable and accounts payable that are displayed separately in the general ledger and the subledger. This is achieved by posting to alternative reconciliation accounts, instead of posting to the reconciliation accounts for receivables and payables

External System Handling Units to SAP ECC System and Pack Outbound DO

Hi Guru
Packing Is done in External System for SAP ECC Sales Order Before Outbound Delivery Creation.
How to capture External System Handling Units in to SAP ECC System and Pack Outbound Delivery Line Items.
Please help
Thanks In Advance
SR

Bit of a cart-before-the-horse situation here.
Lets assume that your business process goes ahead and creates a delivery note, but leaves it unpicked and unpacked. Picking and packing will occur with the inbound IDoc from your external system.
Map the external system data into a basic IDoc type DELVRY0X. I think the current one is DELVRY07.
Use an inbound IDoc message type SHPCON to carry the external system data into your ECC system.
The process code DELV works well with DELVRY0X inbounds. It has lots of user exits. You will need them because you will need a determination process to know which delivery note to update with the external system data.
When you map the handling unit data correctly into the IDoc, the process code will create the handling units on your delivery. The external handling unit numbers should end up in VEKP- EXIDV.

SAP RAR - Best Practice ECC,CRM and BW systems

Hi All
i have the requirement to configure RAR for the systems ECC,CRM and BW systems . Each system has only one client . whats the best practice regarding using the rules against each system . i am assuming the rules will be the same irrespective of the system but when i see the names of the initial files , they are system specific . can anybody elloborate around this . thanks
Regards
Prasad

Prasad,
To build on Chinmaya's explanation, make sure you use a logical system for CRM, BI, and ECC for the basis portion of the rule set (and only the basis portion). This will keep you from duplicating your rules to meet your basis requirements. The other rules should be attributed to the individual systems (or additional logical systems if including mult landscapes, ex. Dev, QA, and Prod ECC merged into one ECC logical system).

XI Dev. connected to ECC Dev and ECC Qas

Hello Folks,
I have a question -
We have 2 XI systems: Development, and Production (no QAS)
And 3 ECC systems: Dev, Qas and Prd.
Now we have the XI Dev connected to the ECC Dev.
I'd like to know if it's possible to also connect the XI Dev System to the ECC Qas system.
I mean, to create the RFC dest. in both systems, a new Business System for ECC QAS; and all the necessary config.... and if it won't take problems when we have to transport the Interfaces from DEV to PRD.
Thanx in advance.
Juan

Hi juan,
just be carefull when you add you QUA config in ID and then when you will transport...
1. in your ID, when will define the config with QUA, do NOT ADD the object to your Scenario.... if for the transport you choose the option "Transport all objects of my Scenario"... else you will have a problem in Prod because of the system QUA. Indeed with transport DEV become PROD but your ECC QUA cannot become ...
2. when you will transport to your PI prod :
- check my first point or use option "Transport by selecting each objects" and choose only object linked link to your DEV.
- delete also the Condition option (if you have one) in the Receiver Determination if in th receivers list you have DEV and QUA.... because after the transport the ECC QUA become nothing.
So yes we can. There is no technical issue.... if you do properly the things !!
Regards.

SAP ECC, SRM and SNC integraton

Hi everyone,
I want to know if we can integrate ECC, SRM and SNC. We don't want to use SUS, we want to use SNC. Is it possible to have this implementation? If yes, what is the correct technical scenario for SRM (Classic or Extended Classic)?
Thanks,
Ivá

Hello Iván,
Regarding your first query, "What kind of changes we can do in SNC " --> As a vendor we can modify the PO quantity and PO delivery date only and update the same as POR. We cannot add any items in the PO.
Regarding your next query ," changes cannot be send to PO if we are in extended classic?" --> i think we can send the changes to the SNC even in the extended classic scenario , but we need to then customize our system accordingly with regards to the document types used , vendor classification , idoc and xml mapping , etc.
We will be using some sort of SRM - SUS integration here in the extended classic.
Also changes can be synched between SRM - ERP - SNC. and we can have the extended classic with ASN creation in SNC.
Best Regards,
Rahul

Advice Bank Statement and External Reconciliation Report

I am looking for suggestion on how to prepare a Bank Reconciliation Report for Checks in Crystal Report. I have short listed Tables ORCT and RCT1 for Incoming Payments and OVPM and VPM1 for Outgoing Payments. My main concern is how to differentiate between Reconciled and Non Reconciled Checks. As Seen under Banking -> Bank Statement And External Reconciliation-> Manual Reconciliation Under cleared column.

You can go to Administration> System Initialisation>Company details> basic initialisation> (check) Bank Processing.
Also, you need to do a few set ups before you start using the bank statement facility. You can find this in SET Up> Banking> Bank Statement Processing.
When you check this, you would be able to see the Bank Statement Processing Form in the banking module.
all the information that you might need for the Bank Statement Processing for versions A and B can be found in the Portal under the following path:
SAP Portal -> Support -> Documentation Resource Center -> Modules and Features -> Bank Statement Processing (BSP)
Hope the documentation helps you.
