GR/IR at the month end

Hello,
What we have to do with GR IR account for clearing at the month end.
Regards
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
GR/IR clearing is the month end activity. To do this first you should maintain gl accounts under open item managment.
the GR/IR Clearing account is used to account for Goods Receipt and Invoice entry for the vendor invoices. The GR/IR clearing account program reclassifies the entries in GR/IR account as either assets or liabilities for reporting purpose. At the period end which goods receipt has been done and for which Invoice has not been recd or goods for which invoice has been done and GR has not been done. During the time between invoice being created and delivered the goods. To accommodate this timing difference a gr/ir clearing account is maintain temporarily to record the flow
hope it will useful and pl assign points

Settlement of the month end process order KKS1 & C088

Hello all ,
we are trying to settle the variance & upadte WIP for the month end but facing some problems.
When try to Run KKS1 getting the errors for some ordera as
Only remaining var. in version 0 - no target costs for 000001003928.
Should we just ignore these errors & proceed with the settlement which is using Txn CO88.
Also if I run the CO88,I hope it just updates the WIP account so whether there is any high risk of running this transaction.
Any documentaion on CO88 will be helpful & also if you can explain what is reasons for the errors on KKS1 then it will be quite helpful .
Thanks,
AG

Hello All ,
One more question . I have done the variance calculation for my process order via KKS2 but when I run CO88 it does not settle this order . Not sure what is the criteria for order not considered for the settlement.
Order already has the delivered & Techoed status.
Thanks,

Archived Service Orders settling in the month end job!!!

Hi All,
Service orders were archived using object PM_ORDER and now the month end settlement job has settled some very old service contracts. Why is this happening inspite of running the archive pre process job which ensures that the service orders have been settled before archiving them.
What can be done to correct them? We have a list of order numbers which have got settled, but not sure how to set this problem right.
Plus need to prevent this from happening in the next month end settlement.
This is a critical issue.. so any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Janani

Hi ,
1) In general , archived Orders won't be avl in the system for process. Check whether those orders are really archived .
2) While running preprocess for archiving that is deletion process for Orders , it might have closed/deleted the linked objects ( for e.g. Purchase requisitions,reservation, etc ) . System might have settled those orders in the current settlement run

How do I pay for another month of data when the month ends?

Is there a customer service rep I can talk to? This has been nothing but a runaround so far. I want to pay this company money so that I can continue to use their service. Why do they make that so hard?

If you want to go the prepaid route, the easiest way is to sign into the Verizon web page using the phone number of your device. Add a credit card number to your Verizon account. Using a land line, call 1 800 922 0204 = Customer service. After you give the phone # of your device and your PIN #, you get the option of adding money to your escrow account. You can add between $15 and $195. It is a fully automated system.
Then, when your device runs out of time or GB, you just try to open any web page with your laptop/tablet using the MiFi or jet-pack through a WiFi connection. Instead of getting the web page you want, you will get the "pay up" portal with 3 choices. Pick the plan you want and pick "pay with account". You still have to disconnect and power down the device. After restarting the device, all should work OK.
After about 15 minutes, sign into your web page. You will see your escrow balance goes down by the amount of your plan and your jet-pack has GB ready to use. At least, that is how it should work.
Have fun,

Month end accrual posting date- Last day of the month

Hi Experts,
I have set up month end accruals for PY US by configuring posting dates, LDCD, WageType accrual processing class, Schema changes. I have also set the closing dates as the end of the month.
Now after I do the posting , there are three documents getting generated.
1. Accrual posting document with first day of the current month
2. Normal Payroll posting document with payroll period posting date
3. Accrual reversal document with first day of the following month.
My Question is: As per standard SAP configuration, the month end accrual will have first day of the month. Can we customize this to end of the month for doc#1 - accrual document?
Please do let me know your suggestion and ideas.
Thanks,
Amosha

Hello,
I have a similar question and I hope to have more details on how to change the posting date.
The point is that I have an amount of 1200 and I have to post 100 for each month.
Key Date for Accruals: 31.01.2011
I posted 100 with Document date: 31.01.2011 and Posting date 31.01.2011
Key Date for Accruals: 28.01.2011
I posted 200 with Document date: 28.02.2011 and Posting date 28.02.2011
Also I reversed the amount posted in the previous month (100) with Document date: 31.01.2011 Posting date 28.02.2011
And so on...
The problem are the dates because I need to post the amount at the end of each month (28/02) and to reverse the previous amount at the beginning of the next month (01/02).
How can I change these dates?
Thanks a lot in advance
Kind Regards,

Conditional inventory value posting once at the end of the month.

Business Scenario : Our client is a service and facility services unit where in 97% of items are expensed at the time of the GR and assigned to cost objects.
However we have a requirement to track the inventory (stock as well value once at the end of month). For e,g we will do perpetual inventory for the whole month and do a stock take at the end of the month and post the value.
Options like UNBW/NLAG/OMS2 materials does not help as the value posting will happen once in a month but stock postings can happen on a daily basis. We are able to expense still take the stock for the materials but not able to post the value after a stock take at the end of the month.
We are fine for any exits and enhancements as long as it does not disturbs standard SAP.
Kindly suggests your idea's and suggestions

Hi,
You need a custom table for storing material issue data and a custom program to run goods issue in the background at month end.
Create a custom table where store man can enter quantity of material issue with material number. Again let store manager check and correct it if anything wrong.Once store manage happy, then you can run automatic custom program ( which you can run only at the month end ) which posts the goods issue in the background taking data from custom table.

Doubt in mm, where to transfer gr/ir balance in month ending

In the month end if Gr/Ir Account is showing some balances due to pending of invoice verification. What we will do at this situation. Is there any configuration needed, to deal with the situation.
Thanks in advance.

HI G.Kiran ,
Its a normal process, if it is invoice is penditng then month end GRIR Accounts will have the balance. Need not to do any things. If you want to do manual Calaring for GRIR Clearing Account after inovice being generated then do F.13/F-44.

Delivery Block at PGI level based on GI date and Month end date

Business need a check on delivery processing based on the Planned GI date, Month end date and transit period. This transit period is a custom field and dependent on customer. Also it is not maintained anywhere in system. Business store it in some excel format.
The logic needed is: For any given month, the delivery order MUST be goods issued in the same month, i.e. once the order is delivered, the Post goods issue should ONLY be allowed if and only if , the PLANNED GI date ( as maintained in delivery ) + transit time ( at customer level ), falls within the month end date. If not, a block should be applied at PGI and only authorized personnel should be able to release that block.
Also, there will be no check at invoicing VF01 level. Once the PGI blocked is removed, there will be no check on invoicing. The month end date may vary month to month and need to in combination of Sales Org / Plant as mentioned
In addition, the business need an exception report where the information of releasing the block should appear for release date, user id of the responsible person, time sales order no etc. and it should be downloadable.
We can have a custom table to maintain the month end day in given combination.
But I need your expert inputs as-
1-     Can we add this transit period in at customer master data as it is dependent on customer and there are huge no of customers for the sales unit? If not, then how to maintain it; may be a z table?
2-     Based on this logic, what should the code/logic to be written for block at PGI.
3-     How to control the authority check for removing the block.
4-     The source fields for exception report.
Pls revert accordingly.
Many thanks in advance.

Hello,
Please refere the answers to your questions:
1- Can we add this transit period in at customer master data as it is dependent on customer and there are huge no of customers for the sales unit? If not, then how to maintain it; may be a z table?
You can either use some un-used Feild in Customer Master or maintain a Z-Table. I believe maintaining a Z-Table would be easy as you have huge number of Customers. You can also write a dmall program to Pick the Customer-wise transit dates from a excel file & store in Z-Table.
2- Based on this logic, what should the code/logic to be written for block at PGI.
You have explained the requirement well in your thread, you need to explain the same to your ABAPer & Basis person & they would do the needful.
3- How to control the authority check for removing the block.
Basis person would create & assign a Z-Authorization object which the ABAPer would use in his program.
4- The source fields for exception report.
Once you do the above development, your ABAPer will easily pick the required feild in Report as he has already used all the feilds somewhere in his development.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Settling Rebate Agreements with Validity Start Date not Start of the Month

Hello Experts,
I am currently trying to settle a rebate agreement with validity dates November 20, 2011 to December 31, 2011. However, after the credit memo is created, I noticed that the Service rendered date is today's date, but I expected it to be the same as my Settlement Date = November 30, 2011 (a month-end). Please advise if this is normal. If not, please advise how to correct the automatic entry of dates.
Thanks,
M

Direct Posting of Sales in FI and month end closing

Dear Experts
I learnt that :
Sales Direct Entries may be posted in FI without posting in SD/MM.
Sales entries must always be posted only through SD process. If this is NOT done (for example freight rate received from third party freight forwarders), then only FI people should know how to reconcile and NOT sd people. Hence I recommend posting your query in FI forum after closing this thread.
Regards,
My question is , during month-end closing how should FI or accounting address the above direct posting issues?
Apparently, such practice is not right.
There is no trace of the sales in SD MM. There is no corresponding billing doc in SD MM but found in FI .
How should this situation be handled as best practice?
I am BI person but found this issue with FI data not reconciled with SD MM.
I am not sure how the month-end closing was done when there is such data. Yes, the problem was found AFTER month was closed and I loaded the data to BI.
best regards
Pascal

Dear Sirs
What is the fastest easiest way to find out which FI direct entries were posted without corresponding Sales / Billing documents created ?
Is there any standard report or reports available in oss?
Currently, our other interfacing systems are having problem with data due to direct entries where there is no corresponding Sales / Billing docs posted. This is causing a lot of time investigating what entries caused the reconciliation problem.
Your help would make my life easier.
Thanks!

Incomplete Process order settlement at Month end.

We have issue with order settlement during the month end. We have process orders that run over the week (thus will run over the month-end), with REL, PCNF, and PDLV status at the month end. Production does not want to close/ TECO those orders, as we are not yet done. But FI wants to settle them for the month end.
1) Can FI settle those REL work orders, as mentioned before?
This is what I found:
2) The standard practice is TECO, is to set before closing the order.
3) You can only perform (business) closing for a process order if (CLSD):
The order has status Released (REL), Control recipe created (CRCR) or Control recipe discarded (CRAB), or Technically completed (TECO). To have status Technically completed, the order must have already reached status Released.
The order balance is 0.
There are no more open purchase requisitions, orders, or commitments for it.
All data related to the process order is available and correct (For example, the inspection lots for the order must be completed).
There are no future change records from the confirmation processes
2) So, if statement 1) is correct, is this correct lifeycle:
A.     Settlement at month end for all orders with REL status.
B.      TECO after settlement, and also after DLV and CNF status.
C.      Close after TECO.
Upload in your comments, if there is any link.
Thanks, points will be rewarded.

Hi Abi,
Since the Process order is in uncompleted stage and partially delivered to stock, still it has WIP to be delivered to stock.
Calculate the WIP value & settle the order in Month end.
Prerequisite for WIP calculation is order should has REL status.
In month end for Uncompleted order , calculate WIP value & settle the Order.
General steps for month end practice:
Over head calculation
WIP calculation
Variance calculation - Once the Order receives - DLV /TECO status.
Order settlement.
Order closing

Currency conversion to month end rate

Dear Gurus,
I need to store local currency amount in the cube as group currency amount . The logic of the calculation
local currency amount * month end rate
In other word the local currency amount need to be converted to group currency amount using the month end rate.
Can anyone teach me how to do this
Your help highly appreciated
Thank you
BR

Hi Sarvanan,
You can write a routine to calculate this. But you will need some reference date field, like posting date for this.
In your start routine, get data from table TCURR inside ITAB for monthend forecast rate.
In routine, get corresponding rate by looking local currency and group currency from TCURR internal table. Multiply this rate with local currency amount to get desired result.
Please revert if you need more help on ABAP code to be written.

Harpal
