Organization Structure level

Hi All,
I know this is a fundamental question, so guide me if this is not the right place.
I am new to HCM and am trying to get my fundamentals right. I have been reading a lot about organization structure and organization plan. In real life scenarios when we create an organization structure, is it created at a company code level or enterprise (client) level. Bottom line, is there only one organization structure created per client or multiple?
Thank you!
Sudhir

Hi Sudhir,
Vishru and Vikrant have given you an excellent start. I believe you are confusing some terms here - Company Code is determined by the Financial organization and refers to a group having their own set of books - general ledger. There will be at least one Company Code per country but there may be more than one in a country if you have subsidiaries or divisions that keep their own general ledgers.
In HR the Organizational Structure shows who reports to whom. This may cut across several Company Codes as the CEO may manage the heads of several subsidiaries each of which has their own P&L responsibility. The structure then continues down in each subsidiary again showing who reports to whom.
The Personnel Area and Personnel Subarea (Enterprise Structure) usually look at location and function - where a person works and their function in the company. For example, all persons working at the Corporate Headquarters may be in the same Personnel Area if they are all at the same location. But they may work in Fianance, HR, Purchasing, etc. which may be separate Subareas. But each Personnel Area may be assigned to only one Company Code.
The Employee Group and Subgroup (Personnel Structure)determine the type of pay and benefits the employee may receive. Example, Salaried Employee, Hourly, Union Worker, Part TIme, Full Time, etc. These will cross Company Code lines if they have the same benefits, work schedules, pay structure, etc.
What you must remember is that every employee has an assignment in the Enterprise Structure, Personnel Structure and Organizational Structure and these are all assigned in IT0001-Organizational Assignment.

Organization structure of AA

Hi
can any one tell me what is the organization structure of Asset Accounting
Thanx in advance

Hi,
In addition to providing for the management of assets and their values, asset accounting should offer an organizational structure for assets that reflects the organizational structure of the enterprise. For this reason, the FI-AA component uses the various SAP organizational units. An asset is clearly assigned to these organizational units at any given point in time.
In addition, you need to classify assets according to various accounting criteria (such as depreciation methods). This classification assists in management-accounting-oriented tasks, and in the summarization of asset values in the general ledger.
You can assign an asset to a number of organizational units by making entries in the asset master record. These assignments are meaningful primarily in other SAP R/3 applications. However, there are also functions and requirements for Asset Accounting that make it necessary or desirable to make organizational assignments.
Asset Accounting uses the same company codes as the General Ledger. However, you need to define these company codes further with the specifications needed for Asset Accounting. An FI company code is not usable in Asset Accounting until it has been defined in this way.
In order to make a company code usable in Asset Accounting, you have to assign a chart of depreciation to the company code. You do so in Customizing for Asset Accounting. Choose Organizational Structures ® Assign Chart of Depreciation to Company Code.
The business area is another organizational criterion for General Ledger Accounting, in addition to the company code.
Features
If you specify in Customizing for the General Ledger that business area balance sheets should be created for a company code, the system requires that assets be assigned to a business area during master record maintenance. The business area can also be adopted automatically from the cost center that you entered. As long as a fixed asset is assigned to a business area, the system makes account assignment of all postings to this asset to this business area, including depreciation and gain or loss postings on asset retirement.
If you want to assign a fixed asset, which has already been posted, to another business area, you have to transfer the fixed asset to a new asset master record. The posting becomes effective at the same time in the General Ledger. If you do not create business area balance sheets, you can change the business area in the time-dependent assignments in the asset master record.
Use
The meanings of the plant and location organizational units are primarily specified in the SAP R/3 logistics components.
Prerequisites
You maintain plants and locations in Customizing. Choose Enterprise Structure.
Features
Plant
Generally, the plant is a plant location or branch. The plant has no asset accounting relevance, but it can be used as a sort and selection criterion for reports. You can assign a fixed asset to one plant for a set time in its asset master record. By changing the asset master record, you can change the assignment to a different plant.
Location
The location is handled the same as the plant. In addition to a plant, you can make a time-dependent assignment of the asset to a location.
Address
In the Customizing definition of the location, you can also specify an address. Using this method, you can indirectly assign an address to an asset. The comprehensive address data consists mainly of
Street address
PO box
Information for communication (such as telephone number)
Since the address is linked to the location, all assets with the same location must have the same address. You can obtain reports related to the address using a standard report in the FI-AA Information System. You can display the address in the asset master record, on the Time-dependent data tab page.
Use
For internal accounting, you generally need to assign asset costs to cost centers. Therefore, you can assign each asset in Asset Accounting to exactly one cost center. You make this assignment in the asset master record. At the level of the cost center, you can then
Post all depreciation and interest for the asset (see System Settings for Depreciation Posting )
Plan all future depreciation and interest (for primary cost planning, see Primary Cost Planning )
Statistically post gain or loss from the sale of assets (see Additional Account Assignment )
Prerequisites
If you want to use cost accounting across company codes, then you have to set this up in Customizing for Asset Accounting. Choose Master Data->Specify Cost Center Check Across Company Codes.
You define the necessary clearing accounts for this for the different company codes in Customizing for General Ledger Accounting. Choose Business Transactions.
Features: The cost center assignment of a fixed asset can be set to begin on a specific day. If this date changes over the course of time, the system distributes depreciation and interest, according to the appropriate period, to the different cost centers, whereby costs are always allocated to the cost center valid at the end of the depreciation period. The history of the cost center changes can be managed in the system as long as you wish. A cost center can also be assigned to a business area as an asset can. In asset master record maintenance, therefore, the system ensures that the business area of the cost center matches the business area of the asset.
If you assign assets to more than one cost center at the same time, you have to do one of the following:
Distribute the costs within cost accounting using a distribution cost center.
Post depreciation and interest to an internal order and then settle the order
Hope this helps. please assign points.

What is Organization structure in IS Utilities

Dear Experts,
I'm new to IS Utilities, Can any one explain bellow concepts:
1. What is Organization Structure in IS Utilities and How it helps?
2. How and Where can we configure that?
3. any Building Block for this concept?
Kindly provide me the relavent links/Docs for further understanding... many thanks in Advance
Srujan

Org, structure defn can be different for different industries, but in general it can be defined as mentioned below.
Org. Structure is:
You use the organizational structure to represent and process
disciplinary assignments, remuneration flows and statistical aggregations.
As asked by you 1 example for this is:
In an insurance company, the organizational structure models the
hierarchical picture of an organization (generally sales and distribution), in particular for
the derivation of overriding commissions.
One more definition for Org. Structure which can throw more light in understanding this is:
"A hierarchy in which the organizational units in an enterprise are arranged according to tasks and functions.
The organizational structure differs from the administrative enterprise or personnel structure, whose
structural elements are relevant to payroll accounting and accounting."
Please mark thread as answered if you get satisfactory answer.
Thanks,

Defining Organizational Structure

Hi
When we are implementing SAP HR in an organization, we have to define Org Structure and Enterprise Structure. I am kind of clear about the Enterprise Structure but I am little confused about the Organizational Structure. What are the things or parameters to be kept in mind while talking to the customer for defining the Organizational Structure? I am very much comfortable with the concept of Org Units, Jobs, Positions, Cost Centers and the different relationships. What I am looking for is the functional viewpoint. How do we decide what will be the Org Unit and how do we build the whole tree?
Thanks in advance for the answers.

Hi FS
Usually in SAP HR an Organisational Unit is a department,
Position is very specific to a person's profile (fr e.g.: Personnel Manager)
A Job is a generic term like Manager.
So in simple terms as per the SAP standards also while discussing with client we need to conside all the reporting relationships between department to department (O-O) position to position. Job is a supporting element in the Org Structure,
It may be possible that in the clients schenerio some dotted line reporting structures will be there
so we need to consider this also while designing the structure.
But If you consider departments as Orgainsational units then this will be very easy for client to understand also
Thanks

Enterprise Organization

Hi,
What's the use of creating enterprise organizaion?
Why is enterprise organization(KEO2/ KEO3) falling under CCA ?
Can some explain me whats the difference Enterprise Organization & Std Hierarchy of Cost center?
Thanks In advance

hi
In enterprise organisation you actually map the physical organization to the organization structures in the System.
For example if you are implementing SAP for a group company having two company codes in multiple currency, each company code having manufacturing units. Such mapping needs to be done in SAP. Each manufacturing unit would be mapped to 'manufacturing plants' . And individual legal entities would be mapped as Company Codes. Since the management wants central control of the company codes, they would be linked to the Company.
Going further each manufacturing unit may have many cost center and some common cost centers.
Also these manufacturing plants need to be treated as profit center so that the management will need to monitor and measure the profitability of each of these plants.
Thus Company> Company Code> plant --> location (business area) could be one organization structure in FI, however the business areas would be independant of the company code .
For CO the organization structure would be operating concern--> controlling area --> Cost centers/profit centers.
In the Standard hierarchy we basically group the Cost Centers (for example) into various cost center groups thus enabling the organization to groups similar cost centers into one group.
Alls cost centers & profit centers have to be assigned to the Standard hierarchy.
hope this helps.
thanks

Integrating EC organizational structure with SAP OM

Hi experts,
Do you know if someone has successfully integrated EC Organizational Structure with SAP HCM OM Structure? I mean cases when the organizational struture is created and maintained in SuccessFactors and then transferred to SAP HCM OM (organizational units, positions, holders) in order to avoid double maintenance in SAP. Is there for instance an iFlow delivered by SAP to help with the integration? Just wondered if this kind of integration is worth trying or if it would too complicated.
Thanks,
Anna

You should read the EC to SAP ERP integration handbook (found at http://service.sap.com/ec-ondemand) as there are certain caveats regarding field lengths, etc. Ensure that your enterprise structure in Employee Central makes sense from an SAP perspective, because certain objects (e.g. a Department) can be shared by multiple parent objects (e.g. Divisions) and you need to ensure it will make sense in SAP in terms of workflows etc.

Error while creating the Organization structure.

Hi,
I am trying to create an Organization structure in SRM 5 sytem, I have created a Root for the structure and when i try to click on the Attribute Inheritance or the Check tab below i am getting an error "Start program BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_ALL first (see note 563180 and long text)" but i have replicated one plant from the R/3 system using BBP_LOCATIONS_GET_SELECTED and the material groups and all the other relevant datas from R/3. I can see in the table BBP_LOCMAP the plant been associated with the relevant company code. I am now struck in creating the organization structure. I am not sure where i am going wrong while creating the Org model.Please give me your valuable inputs to overcome this error.
Regards
GGL

Go to transaction SM30, table T77S0
Add an X to the following entry:
Group = EBP
Sem abbr. = LMIGR
Val. Abbr. = X
Description = Locations Successfully Migrated
This tell the system that the locations have been replicated and the error indicating location get all needs be executed will go away.

Problems assigning BP to a position in the organizational structure

I tried to assign a bp to a position in the organizational structure,
but I receive this message "Object cannot be assigned to object CliC
Agent in the period 21.12.2006 - 31.12.9999".
Also, I notice that in the screen, the checkbox where i can select for
the business partner is missing.
However, I can assign a user to the org structure.
Before upgrading, it was working. This is the support packages that it was in.
SAP_ABAP: Level 9
SAP_BASIS: Level 9
PI_BASIS: Level 9
SAP_AP: Level 6
BBPCRM: Level 6
After the upgrade to the following,
SAP_ABAP: Level 10
SAP_BASIS: Level 10
PI_BASIS: Level 10
SAP_AP: Level 7
BBPCRM: Level 7
The assigning of business partner to a position no longer works.

Hi,
we're facing exactly the same problem, it was all going well until we went on production.... we applied note 997009 which results in a different error... did you manage to find a solution yet ?

Organizational Units and Basic Settings
Definition
Elements of the SAP System logical structure, important for Financial Accounting.
Organizational units are used to structure business functions and for reporting. The organizational units of Financial Accounting are used for external reporting purposes, that is, they fulfil requirements that your business is subject to from external parties, for example, legal regulations. The financial statements for example, are created based on the organizational units of Financial Accounting.
Basic settings in Financial Accounting are Customizing settings that you have to make in order to be able to carry out processes in Financial Accounting.
Use
You create your company-specific organizational structure in the SAP System by defining the organizational units and making the basic settings. Defining organizational units for Financial Accounting is obligatory, that is, you have to define these units in order to be able to implement the Financial Accounting component.

Integration
In the SAP System, you define the relevant organizational units for each component that you are implementing. For example, for Sales and Distribution, you define sales organizations, distribution channels, and divisions (product groups). Similarly, for Purchasing, you define purchasing organizations, evaluation levels, plants, and storage locations. The organizational units are independent of one another at this stage.
Components and Organizational Units

Sales and Distribution
Sales organization, ...
Logistics
Purchasing organization, ...
Financial Accounting

Controlling

Human Resources
Employee groups, ...
To transfer data between the individual components, you have to assign the organizational units to each other. You only need to make these assignments once in the system. Whenever you enter data subsequently, it is automatically transferred.
For example, invoices that are posted in SD are transferred to FI.

ALE: e-recruiting organizational structure transfer

Hi friends,
I want to transfer the organization structure or the organization plan with O,S,C object types from one SAP system to another SAP system.
I have done the ALE configuration and using PAFL transaction to do the same.
I would like to know that model view i should use for the distribution also i would want to know the screen parameters in PAFL transaction.
I am doing the same for E-recruiting separate instance.

Points would be given

Hello,
We are still having a problem with failing iDocs everytime we pass over IT0105 Sty 1 records from our SAP system to E-Recruiting.
Would anyone happen to know where I should start looking to troubleshoot this error message?
"Password is not long enough (minimum length: 6 characters)"
Currently both systems require that your password be at least 6 characters long, which makes this message even more perplexing.
Having a better understanding of how RBDAPP01 processes inbound IDOCS in status 64 would help. We are using message type HRMD_ABA. Our data filter looks like....
Infotype: 1000
Object Type: C, O, S
Infotype: 1001
Object Type: C, O, S
Subtypes: A002, A007, A008, A012, B002, B007, B008, B012
Infotype: 1001
Object Type: O, S
Subtypes: A003, B003
Infotypes: 0000, 0001, 0002
Object Type: P
Infotype: 0006
Object Type: P
Subtype: 1
Infotype: 0105
Object Type: P
Subtypes: 0001, 0010
So the question is how is IT0105 Sty 1 being processed when RBDAPP01 runs?
Thank you for your help!

Calculation of minority interest in matrix organization structure

Hello-
We are currently implementing sem-bcs and have a matrix organization structure in place. We use company code and profit center as consolidation units. Company code being the currency carrying unit.
We are facing an issue in minority calculation-
Let us take the following example -
Investee A - books equity in pc A
Holding entity B books investments in pc B
The above information were entered in AFD and was also pulled in BCS as RFD..
The first consolidation happens as per our expectations.
For subsequent consolidation, the retained earnings account (additions movement) could have multiple profit centers. The system calculates minority interest correctly for combination of retained earnings addition @ PC A. However for all other combinations (I.e retained earnings for PC other than A), the system treats the entire amount as minority interest (even though that's not the case)..
Kindly advise.
Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for your reply...
The PC hierarchy is already in place..I maintained Additional Financial Data for the other combinations (of Cons Unit and PC) with 100% share and zero value. The system considered that and calculated minority interest correctly.
I wish to know if the above approach is ok..
Thanks

Organization structure in extended classic scenario

Hi All
I am trying to configure extended classic scenario on SAP SRM 7.0. I have made the following settings for the same:
1. In SPRO->SRM Server-> Technical Basic Settings -> Define backend system from product category, I have specified target system as SRM system and not ECD system
2. In SPRO->SRM Server->Cross Application Basic Settings-> Activate Extended Classic Scenario, I have selected all the options including "Back end purchasing group responsible"
I have a few doubts.
1. In organization Structure (PPOMA_BBP) Comapny code is corresponding to company code in back end but do I have to create local purchasing organization and local purchasing group i.e. in Functions-> Corresponds I'll have to leave blank. plz suggest
2. Also is IPC configuration mandatory for extended classic scenario
Plz give your suggestion on above mentioned issue
Regards
Pawan Keshwani
Edited by: pawankeshwani on Mar 18, 2011 8:33 AM

Hi Pawan,
No you should mention Purch Org & Purch Grp also wrt your backend (ECC).
IPC need not be configured separately from SRM 5.0 onwards. To ascertain if IPC is working fine just run the report : RSVMCRT_HEALTH_CHECK. You should see 4 success messages. Else get in touch with Basis to enable Virtual Machine Container (VMC)
