Equipment with no location or account assignment data

Hi experts,
In our solution, we are using equipment records without functional locations or account assignments. Yet I still see records for each equipment in ILOA with a new account assignment number (ILOAN). Is this standard SAP or is there a way (in config maybe) to avoid the automatic creation of these records in ILOA.
EQUZ contains a record for each equipment with a difference ILOAN as well.
Thanks,
Paula

Paula,
A new ILOA record is created for the equipment each time you change the Location data. This then used as part of the equipment history (usage list, change logs, etc).
Certain fields can be configured (via IMG) to create new records.
If you don't change these fields, then it won't create new ILOA records. Therefore you will have one ILOA record for each EQUI/EQUZ record.
There is nothing much you can do about this without modifying SAP standard code. And in any case it would be unwise since we do not know the knock-on effects. Nor do you know if you may need this functionality in the future...
Many clients have millions of equipment records, each with multiple ILOA records. This should not affect the system if it is "sized" correctly...

Copy of Account Assignment Data from PR to PO in ECC 5.0

Hi,
In our ECC 5 instance, Account assignment data from PR to PO is not getting copied when we create a Purchase Order in ME21N transaction. Where as the same is being copied when PO is being created with ME21 transaction.
Ex: PR created with Acc Assignment Q, when we create PO with reference to PR in ME21N transaction, this account assignment data is not getting copied to PO. Where as this is no so, when we create PO in ME21 transaction.
Can you please specify any pointers for this copy control problem.
Thank you,
Regards,
Ramakrishna Mangena

hi,
please check for the following points:
1. check in ME21N, are referncing properly or not...
You have to reference it via using the document overview ON or directly entering the PR as source document for the PO...
2. check whether is getting properly saved in the table EBAN/EBKN...check it in SE16...you can check as per the document number...
3. If nothing is helping you from the above two points check with the ABAP and BASIS consultant...

Reporting on Operation Level costing / Operational Account assignment data

Hi folks,
Please can anyone here with experience in dealing with extracting Operation Level costing (OLC) / Operational Account assignment (OAA) data for Maintenance Orders share their experience.
We have done some basic checking around this and Account assignment at activity level has been enabled. Been trying to use 0PM_OM_OPA_2 extractor to get this Operational Account assignment data but no luck.
Perhaps PM Consultants familiar with OLC/OAA solution can help answer this. What are the tables to look at for getting to this Operational Account assignment data?
Any clues will be appreciated.Thanks for your help!

PO with hundreds of multiple account assignment lines on service line level

Hi, experts,
I want to create a external service PO with multiple account assignment.
However, in the service line item level, when I click on the multiple account assignment, I could only enter 97 lines. But I need to create around 1000 account assignment lines for a single service line.
Is it possible to extend the no. of account assignment lines inside the service line level? May I know how to do so?
Thanks & regards,
James

I'm facing a similar error.
What I think it's happening is that for technical reasons the program involved only delivers 99 line items... To make things worse, When you try to create an invoice for that full item you are going to get an error bc the invoice reserves line 99 for unplanned account assignments.
The suggestion from SAP is to create further items with 98 account assignment items or less.
Have a look at these notes: 486808, 651784

Nelson

Problem with stock transport order account assignment

hi gurus,
I've a situation in ECC 6.0 environment in regard to STO that I hope you can shed some lights.
We're doing an upgrade from 4.6 to ECC6 and I'm doing some preliminary tests in the new box and I'm getting KI235 error message "Account xxx requires an assignment to a CO object", when I try to posts goods issue from the delivery document. When I assign a dummy cost center to the cost element, I can post the document and I get a CO and SPL accounting documents. In 4.6 there is no accounting document generated as the result of goods issue and this is what client wants. I've checked the release notes and OSS as well checked the setting for automatic account assignment in MM but I couldn't find any difference. I need to add that the material that I use is non-valuated but there is an accounting view for the material with valuation class. I'm just baffled that the goods issue for the same materials in 4.6 works without producing accounting documents but it doesn't work in ECC.
Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Hi
If the material is non valuated then the accounting view should not be present, by mistakenly may be you have maintained the accounting view for the material type & maintined the accounting view in Material master.
If you dont want the accounting document generated, then you need to first de-select the accounting view for the material type & make the material as non valuted by removing the flag on Value update for the Plant.
now create anew material & test the transaction, if you want to use the sam eold material then make the Moving average price of the material to zero first & then change the Price control to S. & Test the transaction.
Thanks & Regards

Access Account assignment data inside custom search help

Hi Experts,
I have faced with a challenge and I am stuck. Need some expert advise. I am developing a custom search help for GL account. Inside the search help exit I have to know what is the account assignment category of the accounting line i am currently accessing in WEB UI. for example i have one item in SC and there is a cost distribution between cost center and WBS element. Now i want to access GL account search help from second line in the account assignment ( ie from line having WBS as Acc Assignment).
one approach that i can think of is Enhance Accounting WD component and capture the details in a static attribute of a custom class and access them inside the search help exit. I know this will work. But i am looking for more clean approach.
I saw below code in WD comp method GET_BO_INFO of component controller.
lo_task_container = /sapsrm/cl_ch_wd_taskcont_fact=>get_task_container_instance( ).
   CHECK lo_task_container IS BOUND.
* Get the BO type
   ev_bo_type = lo_task_container->get_bo_type( ).
* Get the BO mapper, BO GUID, and item GUID of the lead selection
   CASE ev_bo_type.
     WHEN /sapsrm/if_pdo_obj_types_c=>gc_pdo_shop.
       lo_bom_sc ?= lo_task_container->get_bom_sc( ).
       ev_hdr_guid = lo_bom_sc->/sapsrm/if_cll_bo_mapper~get_bo_guid( ).
       ev_item_guid = lo_bom_sc->/sapsrm/if_cll_bo_mapper~items_get_lead_selection( ).
I am not sure if this works. But even if this works I can not get the exact accounting line that the user is currently processing. Any ideas????
thanks
sankar.

Hi,

Account Assignment data in Shopping Cart not visible after upgrade of R/3

Hello,
We are currently working with SRM 5.0 and R/3 4.6 Backend system.
We are now upgrading our R/3 system from version 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
When we try to create a shopping cart, the account assignment Tab is not visible.
We checked the RFC (SRM-R/3 and R/3-SRM) and they our working fine.
Now we think the problem is caused by a configuration setting in which one defines the Backend System. In this configuration, the system category is still set to 4.6C (for the logical System of the Backend System)
We want to change this but in our list of system categories, the ECC 6.0 option is not present!
Questions:
1. Is this configuration setting the cause for our account assignment tab problem?
2. How can one add the System Category ECC 6.0 so it will appear in the configuration setting "Specify Backend System" ?
Anyone had experience with this? Please give us a clue.
Thanks in advance.
Aart

Hello Aart,
You can choose the ERP_2.0 option. It contains the correct structures for the new ECC 6.0 system.
You can change it and retest.
Kind regards,

Aseet Data maintenance with out G/L Accounts

Hi ,
One of our clients is moving out from SAP to Pepolesoft. But they still want to maintain all the Asset Data with values in SAP only. They also want to run depreciation in SAP, but nothing should get posted in SAP. After running AFAB, system should interface to PS.
Is it possible to maintain Master in SAP with out G/L Accounts( But values should be captured in SAP ) and run AFAB with out G/L Account assignment in the Asset Masters ?
Thanks & Regards,
Sajan

Hi all,
Thanks for the valuable inputs. But there are few more clarifications in this regard.
a) Interface to peoplesoft is secondary thing. We will be interfacing all the data including G/L, AR, AP, Assets to PS at later point of time. Hence this is not to be a concern at this point of time.
b) Now that, we have already posted entries in Asset Accounting in 2008 & 2009, we need to continue Asset Accouting for year 2010. But unless we close 2008, we cant use 2010.
Hence my concern is how to open 2010, with out cloising 2008. or can we run dcepreciation for 2008, with out posting any entries in SAP, so that once we run depreciation for all the periods in 2008, we can close that and open 2010.
Thanks & Regards,
Sajan

Account assignment issue with service PO

Hi all,
I'm uploading service PO's via BUS2012. With a certain item I use Account assignment category P and item cat D. For that same item I entered the limits and the account assignment data in the appropriate structures .
When I try to upload the system gives me an error: "In case of account assignment, please enter acc. assignment data for item".
The other items in the PO don't have an account assignment category.
Anyone an idea what is wrong?
Edited by: Tom Lismont on Oct 23, 2009 1:27 PM

how do you run a BAPi upload in foreground?
You generate the Idocs and process them via either BD87 or directly in the lsmw transaction.
Is there an option to process in foreground?
