FC - Cross-category validation in Central Manual Journal Entries

Hello experts,
At a client site we are implementing several different reporting categories. There are requirements to validate certain accounts between categories.
Within the packages this is working fine - example:
But when used in Central Journals the controls behave differently.
In our issue there is a JE posted on the Category "IFRS-ACT". We then try to post a journal on a different category (same ledger) and want to validate to make sure we are balanced between both.
The control runs OK and recognises that there is a difference between the amounts stored in the separate categories but does not bring the amount stored on the category that it is validating against:
Can anyone offer any advice on how to resolve the issue? Or is it not possible?
Many thanks!

Hello,
This is a known behavior. Controls and formulas using
external data (data from another category) are not applied to local and central manual
journal entries.

Emna.

Ofter creating the journal entries i ran Accounts Payable Trial Balance, when i go through the output i did not see the Manual journal entries which are created in AP.
Please help me it is very urgent.

Pl check your 'Report Defintion' once to ensure that liability accounts that you are using in manual entries are included in report definition.

Exchange rate differences posting failed due to manual journal entries

when i run exchange rate differences and try to post the result, system shows "No matching recording found 'journal entry' (OJDT) (ODBC-2028) [message 131-183]" at the bottom panel ane the posting was failed. then i found the problem is actually from manual journal entries made to a business partner. as long as i deselect the manual journal entries, the posting was successfully done.
i am using B1 2007B with pl09. is this standard in B1 2007B that exchange rate differences posting does not work with manual journal entries of BP?

you are right! it is a bug in 2007B.
The posting has no problem if the base reference number is same as the transaction number in the manual JE document. however, if we define a numbering series which is different from the transaction serial number, then we have problem with the posting. System searchs for the JE records by using base reference number as transaction number. That is why it could not find the JE document and then report the error message.
so, where should i post the bug to SAP and let them fix the bug as soon as possible?
thanks for the help!

Audit Report Fix (Manual Journal Entries for Inventory)

Hello!
Curious if anyone has been able to fix an inventory audit report using journal entries?
For example: if an item was on inventory account 1500 based on it's item group assignment, then say 20 items are received for $1 each, then 5 are sold at $1 then the item group is switched and now it has an inventory account of 1520 and 5 more items are issued out.
Running the audit report summarizing by accounts will show $15 as the balance in 1500 and -5 in 1520. So when we go to actually check the accounts to reconcile them at the end of a period, our inventory accounts are always off.
I have identified manual journal entries meant to 'fix' a GL account, but these have made the audit report basically unusable for reconciliation.
Is there a way to journalize a change in the inventory accounts while making the change occur in OINM as well??
I have looked through several expert empowerment sessions that acknowledge this as a problem, but do not offer any solutions.
Thanks!
Mike

Hi Mike:
Changing Item groups while inventory is on hand is a problem. I have found a way to correct this, but it is a multi step process. I would try this in DEMO first to make sure you get the proper results.
Try this.
Below is the procedure for correcting the G/L Accounts on your Inventory Audit Report It is complicated and needs to be performed when no other users are in the system. Journal entries will not correct this problem.
Here it is.
1.     Review Inventory Audit Report by Summarize by Accounts for the item.
2.     Do a Misc. Issue to remove the inventory.
3.     Review Inventory Audit Report again.
4.     Change the Acct # on the Item Group for the Inventory Item to match the negative value account number. CAUTION! Make sure that users are not performing transactions on the system when you do this.
5.     Do another Good Receipt for 1 each at price shown in Negative value account number. Enter as a positive number.
6.     Re-run the Inventory Audit to confirm that the negative account has been zeroed out.
7.     Change Item Group Inventory account to remaining positive value account number.
8.     Do an Inventory Issue for quantity of 1 each.
9.     Re-run the Inventory Audit Report for the item. All accounts should now have zero value.
10.     Change Item Group account setting back to correct account for future.
I hope it works for you.

Manual Journal entry limitations in sap b1

Hi friends,
We are creating Manual JE in sap b1. We give the access only two users for creating Manual JE. Now we will plan one more thing . Limitation of JE . it is means, per user we will go to allow only 1000 manual journal entries only creating by the user. if they reached their limitation we block that . How i will block ? Is it possible in sap b1 ? or any store procedure is there?

Number of Journal Entries could be limited by giving user specific document numbering series for a particular user.
Hope this helps.

Park and Post management review step for manual journal entries

We are implementing SAP and want to discuss the best way to automate in SAP a high dollar/value (maybe $100K and above) "park and post" management review step for posting manual journal entries. I believe SAP does not offer dollar/value limits as standard functionality for defining a park & post process. If this correct, what have you seen from your other clients using SAP park & post? Is there a different way to get where we want without customizing a workflow or generating a new transaction set?

Hi you could limit the authorisation for the users only to park and then a responsible person could review it and post. You can set a tolerance limit for customers and vendors.

Is it possible to automatically trigger a Manual Journal Entry?

Hi Forum,
This could apply to any situation:
Suppose when I create an A/R invoice, I would like another manual journal entry to be created automatically. Is this possible and how could it be achieved?
Thank you.

Hi Mahendra and Gordon:
This is the situation:
Relates to DropShip Order:
1.Client create DropShip Sales Order (against drop ship warehouse).
2. DropShip Sales Order generates PO (Note no liability accounts are hit)
3. Client wants to invoice their drop ship customer immediately by emailing A/R invoice.
This mean the revenue accounts are already hit and our client has registered a revenue.
Problem : However liability accounts are not hit and our client may not receive A/P invoice for say 2 weeks. This means the books show exagerated revenue.
I suggested - A/P reserve invoice to be created immediately, but it needs to be canceled which leaves original PO in closed state in 8.8.
Second method I suggested to create a manual journal entry to hit deferred liability account to be reversed in two weeks. The client says, this is backoffice job and they do not want them to have access to journal entries.
In anycase, whatever reason, our client will change business practice, however, I thought let me check what it takes to create manual deferred liability auto reversal entry automatically.
Is there any other way to handle this situation?
Thanks.
Edited by: Syed Aleem on Jun 24, 2011 3:13 PM
As soon as A/R invoice is created, a deferred payable needs to be updated also automatically at the same time. This is the requirement.

BOFC: Error when trying to create a central manual journal

Hello everybody,
we are just in the process of setting up a new BOFC data base from scratch.
The database was created successfully and initialized as TOP.
We have created the necessary dimensions and values. Data Entry and local manual journals work perfectly.
But when we try to create a manual journal we get the following error message.
"Error when loading amounts from journal entry { ACT ..... } into the engine".
And the following details:
"Error in the data engine.
Error when loading data in the engine: cannot open a session"
We have restarted the server tasks and the server in order to clean up possible hangs of the server.
Any hints, directions welcome!
Christian

Hello,
are yur sure that you have all the dimensions in the system ?
for instance , are you able to create and fill in data packages ?
You should probably also check whether the defaults for janual entries are filled in (e.g. currency).
If these clues don't work, I'd suggest to open a Support messages (component EPM-BFC-*)

Is it possible to make the attachment icon on my journals form a compulsary step when creating a new manual journal entry?

Good day,
Our company uses EBS 11.5.10.2. The company has a policy whereby any new manual journal needs to have the supporting documentation attached to it, using the attachment icon in the task bar.
Users sometimes forget to do this, though. This has now prompted management to request that we try and make this process of attaching a document when creating a new manual journal compulsary to the process.
Is this possible on the current version we are running on?

Well, that depends on if you are using client/server or web. Currently there is a bug being investigated, which is preventing the cursor size from being altered. For client/server, do the following on the client machine (assuming Windows):
Control Panel > Accessibility Options > Display > Cursor Width
By increasing the width, the cursor will be more visible. The same is expected to work on the web, but currently is problematic and being investigated.

How to identify manual journal entries

Hello,
In the GL tables, GL headers and GL Lines, how can we identify if a journal entry is an automated entry or a manual entry.
That is, entries can be made into the General ledger through Interface programs or other import methods. We describe them as Automated.
And if journal entries are made directly into the GL, how to identify them against the automated ones.
I need to know from a backend perspective, i.e which column in which GL table specifies if an entry is a manual or an automated journal entry.
For Ex: In the GL_JE_Headers table, the JE_Source and the JE_Category mentions from where the source is.
Like, JE_Source is Payables and Je_Category can be Purchase Invoices or Payments.
Looking at the above line, we can identify that this is an automated entry from Payables.
How to identify the manual entries.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Bob

Hi Bob,
In the GL_JE_HEADERS table, column JE_SOURCE would have value as "MANUAL", this indicates that journal is created manually in General Ledger module and not imported from subledgers ....There is no indicative column for us to identify whether it is Automatic or Manual .... values such as MANUAL and RECURRING indicates entries that were created directly in General Ledger Module...
Also in the GL_JE_LINES table, for GL_SL_LINK_ID and GL_SL_LINK_TABLE coumns, the column values would be NULL/Blank, since these columns normally contains reference to the base transaction in the subledger ....for a manual transaction there wont be a reference to subledger, hence they would remain as blank ..

How to reverse a manual Journal Entry Voucher created via Custom BO

Hi All,
I have created a custom BO for triggering a Journal Entry Voucher for each and every Customer Invoice created in the system.Normally all Customer Invoice will be having a corresponding Journal Entry document ,apart from the default JE document I have created an additional Journal Entry for each CI through a Custom BO because of the Business requirement.I am using the default JE as the source document for the newly created JE for the same CI.
If a custom invoice gets cancelled only the default JE will get reversed.How to reverse the newly created JE too.I there a way to carry out this reversal process through PDI using ABSL.
Please find below the code for details.
Custom BO contains these lines.
import ABSL;
import AP.FinancialAccounting.Global;
import AP.CustomerInvoicing.Global;
var query;
var selparam;

selparam.Add(query.UUID.content, "I", "EQ", this.ZJEUUID.content);
resultset = query.Execute(selparam).GetFirst();
selparam.Clear();
if (resultset.IsSet())

Please respond ASAP
Regards,
Navin Kandasamy

Hello Navin,
There is an action "Cancel" in the Accounting Entry BO. Try calling that action from ABSL whenever the CI is canceled. But to do that you should have the reference of the created JEV through code.
Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards,

Currency conversion rule not executing for manual journal entries.

Hi,
We have currency conversion business rule set in our project. THis business rule is not converting LC to other currencies for manual journal posting entries. i.e, it is audit id with DATASRC_TYPE="M".
Can any one let me know if any specific settings are to be done for this to work?
Regards,
Swetha

Hi,
Is the currency conversion working on the other datasources?
If yes, then try to post some record through input schedule in the M datasource, run the currency conversion, and see if the currency conversion is working fine or not.

Use Journal Vouchers instead of journal Entry.
For Ex :
1.User Enter Journal Vouchers.
2. Finance manager or Accts manager open the
Journal vouchers and convert it to Journal Entry.

Validation rule on Cost Object for Manual Journal Entry

Hi Experts,
We have an issue regarding General Ledger Account to be posted manually (FB01,FB50...).
For this posting the busines required only one Cost object (WBS or IO or cost center) is needed.
The problem is that I can not define a Field status group who require only one assignement, either WBS or IO or COPA.
Thus all General Ledger Account is alraedy created as Cost Element.
How can I create this validation rule ?
Thanks for help

Hi Shoeb
SAP allow only one cost object to be filled at one time in order to avoid conflicts. example- CC, WBS, IO etc. you can enter only any one of these in one particular document. how ever balancesheet items are not needed to be filled this.
Hence I guess your validation issue may be already taken care by SAP standard solution. You may keep all cost objects as optional in you Field status group so that it allow any values.
Cost elemets categoroes (primary, secondary)are different than cost object (CC, orders, wbs etc).
if you still need a validation please specify the purpose of validation. hope this helps.
best regards
Jomon
