Hi,
1. chart of accounts--> common set of accounts.
2. Group of acts--> group chart of acts.
Generally we use common set of acts.
For common set of A/c-->OB13.
For A/C groups>OBD4>new entries> give your chart of A/C, A/C group, name, from A/C and to A/c> SAVE.
Assigning company code to chart of accounts-->OB62.
Thanks.
If this helps you please reward with points.

Group Chart of accounts in Consolidation
Hi All,
In one scenario there are three company codes and all the three are using the same chart of accounts as operational COA. My question is for consolidation purpose it is necessary to maintain the same COA as group COA and assign it operational COA? Thanks in advance.
Srinivas.Hi Adi,
Thanks for the reply. Is it compulsory that we have to maintain a group COA for consolidation purpose? even though all the three company codes uses the same operatinal COA. If it is cumpulsory, in OB13 can we maintain the operational COA as Consolidated/Group chart of a/c? In our case for ex:OCOA.

Group Chart of Account Reports
Dear expert,
I am trying to generate some Trial Balance report based on Group Chart of Accounts, but couldn't find any that works.
Example,
company code 1000 is assigned to CoA = INT and Group CoA =CONS.
When I generate Balances report based on CONS, it said " company code 1000 is incompatible with CONS".
Hence, would like to get advse how you guys generate balances report for Group chart of account using standard report. Or what other method available?
Thanks.Dear Ruksana,
This is a standard report, I do not expect many errors. Meanwhile, please let me know what is the error message number you are getting.
The selection criteria would be:
Chart of Accounts : Enter your Group COA
Company Codes: Enter your company codes
Financial Statement Version : Enter the FSV
Reporting Year : Usually current fiscal year
Reporting Periods : 1 to 16
Comparison Year : Usually Previous fiscal year
Comparison Periods : 1 to 16
Keep other parameters as usual.
Hopefully, this should give the results.

In AB Group, we have 2 companies PERU and JKRY
We have some confusion about the structure of COA in SAP, we are setting Operational Chart of Accounts for PERU and JKRY and will assigned Group chart of Accounts for AB Group then is it possible to assigned AB Group to ABC Holding Group by using ABC Holding group (Group chart of Account)?
ABC Holding Company (Group Chart of Accounts) Assigned AB Group COA
AB Group (Group Chart of Accounts) Assigned PERU and JKRY Operational Chart of Accounts

Query About a Group Chart of Account
Hello SAP Gurus,
My client has configured group Chart of Account for consolidation as well as keeping the GL code stucture uniform throughout the Global company codes. However, in OBY3 I can see that the same COA has been assigned as "Group COA". Also to inform you that all the company codes around the world use the same COA as their operating COA. They are not using different COAs.
Please let me know how this is possible? Can the same COA is assigned as Group COA to itself? I think a separate COA is created as Group COA and assigned to this operating COA.
Please clarify my doubt.
Thanks in advance
SagarHi sagar
i will tell you how the group COA works.
suppose you have 2 company codes and you maintain same chart of account for both company codes. for consolidation you will have to maintain a group COA as your company is doing already.
now we maintain same account group and numbers too but for group COA and operational COA for option 1 as i said..
now there is a configuration we do
see fin a/c -
> prepration for consolidation -
> general specification ..
thus for fetching consolidated data in the f.01 we give the global COA nd the FSV maintained for the same..
see whether your company is following this procedure if not then ask the end users how they fetch the consolidated data?
what process they follow.

Hi Guys,
I have to configure a Group chart of account and Consolidation Group from R/3 FI to implement the SEM BCS. Currently we are not doing any configuration in ECCS.
I guess the Group chart of Account can configure in FI-GL. Is that right?
Please give me a step - by -step guidance to configure Group chart of account and Consolidation Group in FI-GLHi,
1. chart of accounts--> common set of accounts.
2. Group of acts--> group chart of acts.
Generally we use common set of acts.
For common set of A/c-->OB13.
For A/C groups>OBD4>new entries> give your chart of A/C, A/C group, name, from A/C and to A/c> SAVE.
Assigning company code to chart of accounts-->OB62.
Thanks.

Group Chart Of Accounts and Group Account Number
Hi SAP Gurus,
For the sake of consolidated reporting, we are planning to create group chart of accounts and assign a Group account number to the GL account master. The structure is going to be like this:
Operating Expenses (Group Account : 461000).
Air Conditioning Exp (GL account 461000001)
Elevators (GL account 461000002)
Coffee and snacks (GL account 461000003)
This is being done to achieve a detail level reporting at the company code level and a consolidated reporting at a group level where the reporting would be based on group account or FSIs. We would define a financial statement version based on FSIs.
My question is : do we need to activate the consolidation (EC-CS) module to push the data to the FSIs or the data would flow automatically to the group account if we assign this to the GL master. If we go to fetch the data from the ECMCT table, do we need to have a consolidation unit?
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
thanks
sriHi,
There are certain preliminary steps to be carried out in ECCS. You can find them under SPRO->Enterprise Controlling->Consolidation->Integration: Preparation for Consolidation.
You need to choose the type of consolidation, create Company, link it to Cons Unit in ECCS, Creating/Copying FS Items (each account in Group COA will have an FS Item; 1:1), etc.,
After the setup, you actually need to carry out Rollup or Flexi Upload for importing FI data into ECCS FS Items. This is done to Data Monitor - CXCD.
In ECMCT, typical selections would be Dimension, Cons Unit, Cons COA, FS Item.
I suppose these preliminary steps are requried for the data to flow to FS Items.
Hope this clarifies.

Impact of activing Group Chart of Account alone
Dear Experts,
What if i just active group chart of account and without enabling the whole consolidation funciton, what potential impact i might get?
Thanks for any advices!
Br
SophieHi,
Consolidation function is a total different set of activiteis. Consolidation is generally done by using ec-cs on different instance with the use of BI folowing the set of procedures.
If you just activate the group chart of account you need to give respective account number while defining the Operating COA. With the help of this you can create FSV & different reports based on accounts & FSV on group coa level.

Group Chart of Account Template
Dear Friends,
I want to create a template for Group Chart of Account, Operating Chart of Account and Company Code Chart of Account.
In that I have a fields related to Operating chart of account only thing is how to find the fields related to Group Chart of account.
I want to use this field to develop a auto creation of GL account.
Please help me to prepare the template related to Group Chart of Account.
Thanks and regards,
Dev MahendraHello,
There are three chart of accounts will be there in the system.
1. Operating Chart of Account - for day to day activities
2. Group Chart of Account - for group reporting
3. Country Chart of Account - for legal reporting in the country
Any chart of account is a chart of account. Every chart of account irrespective of operating or group or country chart of account will have two segments.
1. Chart of Account Segment
2. Company Code Segment
Both the segments can be created through FS00.
You have create a recording through LSMW and create each chart of account.
Refer the following link for LSMW
www.scmexpertonline.com/downloads/SCM_LSMW_StepsOnWeb.doc
Before uploading data thorugh LSMW, create chart of account names in OB13.
If you assign group chart of account to operating chart of account in OB13, Group account field will appear in GL account of operating chart of account.

Purpose of Group chart of Accounts
Hi,
Can anybody kindly let me know what is the purpose of having a group chart of accounts for all company codes having a common operating chart of accounts. How is this used in consolidation.HI,
Group chart of accounts is used In this scenario we assume that
for the data transfer in your group, you only use the realtime update and/or the rollup
the operational accounts do not agree 1:1 with the FS items of Consolidation, therefore you require the group accounts for the transfer of operational accounts into FS items
Please assign points if it useful

Posting in group chart of accounts
Hello,
I have assigned a group of chart of accounts to my operating chart of accounts and mapped the group GL account number in the operating GL account master.
All the doc types and number ranges are duly defined and assigned.
MY issue is when I post to GL account(in op.chart of accounts) the entry is not posted to group account.
So my question is doesn't the posting happen automatically to the group account when entry is posted to the GL in op.chart of accounts or should I run any programme to consolidate or is there any config steps I missed ?
AnilHi,
Group Chart of accounts or Country Chart of accounts will never have separate postings to GL.
These are for reporting purpose only.
If you mapped your group account number / country account number with the operational GL account number, then you use use them in GL balances reporting only.
Ex: While running S_ALR_87012279 - Structured Account Balances, you need to enter a chart of accounts in the selection screen. So here if you enter the group chart of accounts key, then the report will replace the operational GL account number with group account number in the output. Same will be appilicable in case of country chart of accounts are used.
This will clear your doubt.
Thanks,

Issue with Group Chart of Accounts
HI All,
Good Morning. I have 2 Comp Codes, using different Chart of Accounts and have 0001 as Group Chart of Accounts. When I try to create GL Account in One Comp Code, giving Group Account Number, I am getting the below error.
"Corporate Group Accounting 200121 not defined in Group Chart of Accounts"
What I have done was that during creation of COAs for the above 2 Comp Codes, I have assigned Group Chart of Accounts 0001 to them.
Pls let me know if any configuration was missed out.
NiranjanHI Murali,
I have done so. I have created G COA and Op COA and assigned G COA in Op COA in OB13.
During GL Creation, I have assigned G COA GL as well.
Any Configuration steps, Still I need to do?
