Fund Management change in ECC 6.0

Hi,
Could anybody give me any input regarding the change of FM module from 4.6C to ECC 6?
I will migrate FM module to ECC 6.0, I might have to reconfigure the module again, but I have a question, how can we activate FM Module in ECC 6? It seems a lot of path is also change..
Really appreciate if anybody could give me any insight.
Thanks.
Rgd,
Lea

Hi,
You can see the release notes in http://help.sap.com. The paths are indeed a little bit different, but the idea is the same.

Funds Management-Replication to ECC-FPO Bdoc Error-Not known in CO

Hi All,
We have configured sap crm funds management integrated with sap crm campaign management.Below is the flow.
a) Create Fund Plan & Release it
b) Create fund for the fund plan above, post some budget, have some attributes like marketing org to determine in campaign & release it.
c) Assign the fund plan & fund to a campaign. Allocate some amount in the planning profile and release the campaign to create fund usages for the budget allocated. These fund usages will have some fund usage items which tracks how much amount each fund has been assigned.
d) Create some purchase requests and settle them in ECC and download the actuals to CRM which will create the appropriate fund usage for the same campaign as in c, capturing the settlement.
e) Run the accrual calculation program to calculate the accrual & then run the accrual posting program to post the accruals to ECC.
After step e, system creates fund postings with "posting transaction" as "accure" and which in turn creates CRM_FM_FPO Bdoc which gets transferred to ECC.
We are getting issues on this BDOC with error as " Object not know in CO". This error is being raised from ECC and when we debugged we found out that the external object id [Fund usage items, in the fund posting transaction or in the items of the BDOC] doesn't exists or not being created in controlling table iaom_ext_obj_inf.
By seeing these, in my opinion we seem to be missing some configuration or some important settings in either in MW or in Controlling in ECC.
Can anyone in the group please let us know what we are missing here ?
Thanks for your time.

PSM-FM-Reversal of funds management document after change in acc.assignment

Good day we recently went live with a component of Funds Management i.e. Availability Control on Cost centers and cost elements. We update BCS with the plan values and actual/commitment items in Finance/CO. We do our planning in CO.
The solution is working reasonably well but we have encountered a problem for which we are unable to find a solution. The problem is best illustrated with an example;
1. Create purchase requisition with Account Assignment Category "K" = Cost Center with transaction ME51N
2. Account assignment = cost center and cost element. A funds management document is created upon saving of the transaction.
3. Purchase Req. is released with a release strategy (transaction ME54N)
4. After purchase requisition release the account assignment for the cost element is changed by the user. This occurs sometimes during the execution of the business process.
5. When a purchase order is created with reference to this purchase requisition with transaction ME59N the system references the original funds management document which means when the account assignment was changed the funds management document was not reversed and a new funds management document created for the changed account assignment.
6. The BUDCON report transaction FMRP_RW_BUDCON thus displays the commitment under the incorrect commitment item as the change in account assignment is not reflected in Funds Management. We have a one to one relationship between cost elements/commitment items and cost centers/funds centers as per the derivation strategy.
My question is;
Is this normal standard SAP standard behavior or are we missing some configuration that will enable the creation of a new funds management document and if so where do we configure such? I must mention our solution is completely SAP standard.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Mike, nice to meet you.
I think u should do an entire test with TRACE on, and u will find the problem, and how to fix it (at FMDERIVE of course).
First: Have a look at note [666322|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/666322], go to FMDERIVE and turn ON the trace.
Then, run all the process ... from ME51N to the end...
I agree with Eli, u must allow overwriting of existing values at FMDERIVE rule...

Fund managment period change

How to change fund managment period from existing (APRIL TO MARCH) TO OCT TO SEPTEMBER.
WE ARE TRYING TO CHANGE THAT USING
public cector mgmt
fund mgmnt govt
basic setting
fiscal year setting
define fiscal year setting
there we have v3 as april to march and
v9 as oct to sept
originally we had assigned v3 to Financial year and to fund mgmt period both.
but now we want to assign v9 to fund mgmt period.
But system is not allowing us to do that. How can we achive it and what are the reasons for errors.

Hi,
If you already post to FM then you can't change the FY variant. The only way I see is:
A) Delete all posting.
B) Change the setting
C) Reload by "subsequent" transactions.
In case you direct post to FM (E.G budget) you have to reenter. Alternativerly, if you have mass data you entered, write a small program that download the line items and reload after the changes (you can use CATT or ECATT to load the flat file you create).
Hope this help you.

Migration Funds Management from 4.7 to ECC.6.0

Hi,
The company is migrating the system from v. 4.7 to ECC 6.0. We have the module FM (Funds Management), but we don't know if this module is still active in ECC 6.0.
Do you have any information about this? And any documentation to do this migration?
Thanks in advance

Hi Lluisa,
See note[669764|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/669764]:
as of release R/3 enterprise, Funds Management is delivered as an add-on, i.e. EA-PS.
Suggest to check all the release notes for PSM including the ones for EA-PS 110,200,500 and 600
https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/releasenotes
As you are an Spanish Public Sector customer, I am also including the link to the available documentation, but if you did not have IS-PS nor ISPSe before, I think most of the specific upgrade tools will not be relevant for you. No matter, just have a look for your information:
https://websmp201.sap-ag.de/sectorpublico

Funds Management and Fiscal Year Variant Change

Hello !
We are configuring a new fiscal year variant.
Currently, the system is on a CALENDAR YEAR FY variant and we are doing the following:
1. creating a shortened FY of Jan 2009 - Mar 2009
2. new fiscal year from April 2009 - Mar 2010
We are trying to change the FY variant for Funds Management via OF15 but receive the error FI674.
FI674:
You must not change the fiscal year variant in Cash Budget Management or Funds Management for FM area FM01 if actual data already exists for FM area FM01, or if one or more of the company codes assigned to FM area FM01 is active.
We have found oss note 719597 which details how to change the FY variant for Cash Budget Mgmt, but it does not apply to Funds management.
I could find no other supporting documentation.
Can anyone guide us as to how to deal with this issue?
Thank=you !

Hello Patti,
The point is that it is not possible to change fiscal year variant if actual values exists.
You are trying to do a change in January. You probably have some postings in 2009 already.
In the area of PSM-FM there is no note like 719597 of TR-CB.
Only if no actual values exist, this customizing change would be possible and reasonable.
If you are doing this setting in your customizing client, you can delete the postings (please DO NOT do it if you are in production) that exist in 2009 and try again.
SAP do not recommend to change a Fiscal Year Variant that has already been assigned to a company code and has already some postings. This may create database inconsistencies.
You can create another Fiscal Year Variant with the information that you want to be customize, and this variant you will be able to assign to a company code. Before you assign this new variant to a company
code please be sure that none of the information that you already posted in this company code will be affected, this information you may review it with your consultant on-site.
Also please review/apply note 173636, 202687, 10945, 193713, 123026, 210861 which may happen in your system.
The fiscal period is related to the posting date via the fiscal year variant. E.g.: I you do a posting on 5.5.2009 it will be posted e.g. in period 5 for fiscal year variant 'A'. This period is not only used in the document header table (BKPF,VBRK,MKPF ...) but also in several balance table (GLT0, KNC1 ...) not only in FI but also in SD, MM, CO .... If in the new fiscal year variant 'B' this posting date is related to another period e.g. 7 the relation between documents and Periods and balances will be destroyed.
The problem will be enhanced if the posting-date would be related to diffrent fiscal years.
In addition several reports in AP/AR and GL reread period-depend data by selecting the posting-date regardless of the period in the document because it's not normal practise to change the fiscal year variant of a company code.
Some of the involved issues are:
- FM actuals and commitments may need to be reconstructed if their period- (or even fiscal year-) assignments is changed.
- FM actuals/commitments can not be reconstructed if fiscal year change activities have already been performed (commitment carry forward, FMJ1, FMJ2).
- Budgeting data and assigned values may principally be concerned as well, especially if you are working with period values in budgeting.
The change of fiscal year variant has several implications and should be analyzed very carefully.
Please check note below for more information:
Note 672255 Shortened fiscal year / changing fiscal periods
I hope it helps you and good luck

Vanessa.

Down payment in fund management

Hi,
When i am posting a down payment in reference to purchase order, budget is carried back by system automatically which was committed at the time of creation of Purchase Order. It may lead to actual procurement exceeding the budget as budget is reduces.
For example:
Purchase Order created - 100 USD (Budget is committed by 100 USD)
Down payment created against PO - 100 USD (Budget commited by purchase order is carried back automatically)
It means another PO can be created for for 100 USD till the time down payment is not cleared.
Can anybody guide me to stop reversal of budget commitment at down payment.
Further, standard update profile 350 is used where down payment & down payment request are marked as 'Statistical Update'. SAP version is ECC 604.
Thanks
Manish

Hi Mar,
I had seen this SAP note before posting thread.
I have some doubts in regard to implementing above note which are as follows:
1. In update profile Down payment request & Down payment is marked for statistical update then why it is impacting funds
2. SAP Note says that it is a modification & SAP will withdraw support after implementation of note. What are the changes take place once note is implemented:
      a. Whether I would not be able to make down payment against purchase order line item?
      b. If i can not make payment then this note is of no use as i want to track down payment against purchase order.
      c. If i can make the down payment against purchase order, will it not impact purchase order history?
                                                                                OR
      d. this change will only impact fund management & down payment document will not impact fund management
Thanks

Hi All
I am also facing the same problem. Has anyone found the solution for this? I have gone through all the relevant actions for activating FM.
The steps i took are :
a) Create a Funds management area
b) Assign the FM Area to company code
c) Activate Global FM Function
d) Activate Global FM Budgetory control check
e) To a FM area assign the currency,Budget profile,Fund profile ,Fiscal year variant
f) The master data to be created
1. Fund centre
2. Commitment item
Funds are not relevant at my scenario so it is not relevant.
g) Made budget entry for a FM area at Fund centre,Fund,Commitment item level.
h) Created derivation rules for the posting.
i) Assign Commitment item to GL accounts
j) After checking the postings, I tried to activate FM.
At this point the FM is giving me the same error:- Read Access Only
Please Help
Points will be rewarded.
Thanks.

Funds Management - Online Payment Update

Hi -
I am trying to have payments updated in FM.
"I have used update profile 101 -Pmt Bud, Pmt basis, Posting date ( earlier I have used 102 then changed to 101). I have cheked the box for "" Payment Update online"" in settings for payment transfer.
We ahve New GL activate with FAGLFLEXT with document splitting.I made VOBELNR and KOBELNR as additional charcteristics for document splitting with clearing account 'zero'.
I have read in some treads that we have to make FMGLFLEXT totals table attached to leading ledger, but I have not see in any of the SAP help or SPRO texts that we have to do this way ?.
My Bank account GL is assigned to 90/1 commitment item and the Vendor GL is assigned to 60/3.
After all this Payments are not getting updated in FM. Do i have to do something at the time of payment with respect to account assignment ...
Currently working on ECC 6.0 Sand box with EA-PS lvl 11.
Thansk in Advance
Chris"
Edited by: Chris Farr on Feb 11, 2009 2:47 PM

My Problem is solved now, there were inconsistancies in my commiment item categories. My vendor GL was wrongly assigned to a commitment item with 40/3 instead of 60/3, thats why payments were not updated. Now I can see payments getting updated.
Settings required were -
1) Tick for Online Payment Update ( FM- Actual and commitment update - Integration - Define settings for online payment transfer)
2) The online payment update requires the use of the new general ledger and suitable Customizing for document splitting in Financial Accounting (new) -> General Ledger Accounting (new) -> Business Transactions -> Document Splitting. Here you can use the standard splitting procedure 0000000012 as a basis. You must also define the fields KNBELNR and VOBELNR as document splitting characteristics of the general ledger.
check this tread also - Funds Management - Online Payment Update
I have one more question - I have a PO with multiple FM account assignments (e.g two items with Fund center1 and Fund center2) and the same is invoiced. When I do the partial/Full payment Payments are only getting updated in one FM assignement i.e Fund center1. I think the payment has to be split among the FM account assignments. Can spmebody please clarify.
check this tread also
Thanks

Funds Management - Wrong Account Assignment getting cleared in PR

Hi All,
We are working on Funds Management implementation at our workplace and we are facing a problem relating to account assignment. (SAP ECC 6.0)
We have defined a Account Assignment Derivation for a material as
Material Number = A100 assigned to Commitment Item = ComItem1 and Funds Center = FunCen1.
Now during the creation of a PR for A100, where the Funds Center and Commitment Item fields are mandatory, the wrong commitment item is automatically getting populated (ComItem2 that was defined under a different Funds Center, instead of ComItem1 ;but the fund center field in the PR is alright) and they are also getting passed right up to the MIRO stage, where I get the message "No Commitment Item entered in Item" (here too the wrong funds center and commitment item from the PR are getting populated automatically)
What's worse is that the budget document contains the new commitment item ComItem2 created under FunCen1.
I am not clear as to where the assignment to the funds center and the commitment item in the PR happens - and given that the assignment is given as required, how are the wrong values getting populated and then allowed to proceed upto MIRO ?
Regards,
Wy

Hi Eli Klovsky,
Thanks for the suggestion - was helpful to find out the target fields through the trace.
We went to the details column for the target field in the rule definition structure, and activated the "Overwrite with New Value" field, and in this case, the new values of fund center and commitment item are getting over-written.
However, one problem I have faced is that for materials which have no assignments, when we create the PR on the same line as that of the previous PR (By changing the material number), the old values are not getting replaced. They are however getting replaced once we come back and create a new PR, or add the material on another line.
Have to explore this better - there might be some human errors, where the material number is changed on the same line as that of the previous material PR, in which case, the existence of the previous commitment item and fund centers can result in wrong allocations to other divisions..
@All,
Really sorry to be continuing this discussion here, is it possible to move this to the appropriate Public Sector group ?

Funds Management cut over of Open PR and PO

Hi,
In case of cutover, we are using following link to update FM account assignment in open PR/PO.
SPRO>Funds Management Government>Actual and Commitment Update/Integration>Internal Data Transfer to Funds Management>Supplementary Account Assignment-->Select Documents
and
SPRO>Funds Management Government>Actual and Commitment Update/Integration>Internal Data Transfer to Funds Management>Supplementary Account Assignment-->Convert Worklist
1) But in this case, for open PO of which GR is not done FMRP_RW_BUDCON report is not updated after doing above mentioned process. when I make GR, commitment get updated in FMRP_RW_BUDCON report. This does not show actual status of budget consumption as budget consumption is shown at the time of GR only.
2) If GR is already done for PO and after doing above mentioned process, if GR get reversed then Negetive commitment shows in FMRP_RW_BUDCON report and after deletion of that respected PO, commitment of PO gets zero. But negetive GR commitment remains open which leads to wrong status of budget consumption. e.g. GR of Rs 5000 is reversed. Then report shows two documents as -5000 for GR reversed and 5000 for PO commitment getting open. IF I reversed this PO then PO commitment of 5000 become zero. but GR reversing amount -5000 still remains open. So it shows less consumption of budget by Rs.5000.
Do I am missing any process. Suggest.

Hi,
Firstly, after you convert the open commitments, you'll need to run FMAVCREINIT to reconstruct AVC. FMRP_RW_BUDCON will then reflect the converted commitments.
Secondly, based on your posting, it seems that you do not want PO commitments (VT 51) to be counted as budget consumption. You can achieve this in the ledger 9H configuration:
Public sector management > Funds management government > BCS > Availability control > Settings for availability control ledger > Define filter settings for commitment/actual values. You will want to exclude both value type 50 and 51 from ledger 9H. After you change the setting, you will need to run FMAVCREINIT again.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ming

All very interesting notes :P
But... I couldn't find the solution
I try to TRACE from FMDERIVE too, but when I go to KO88, FMDERIVE's trace doesn't track anything.
Any help to throw some more light on this thread, would be very useful.
Thanks a lot!
