Group Company Scenario -- Vendor Or Customer

Hi Experts ,
We are Using SAP R/3 ECC 6.
Our Group consists of three Different Companies ( Say A, B, C) . We have Implemented SAP in one of our these Companies (Say A) within Group .
Now the Issue is how to deal with other Companies (B / C ) from which we neither Purchase nor sale anything but yet we pay this company for its Expenses and Some time it return back us money & also issue Shares to Us .However it always carry a Debit Balance.
Now Please guide whether we should use this Company( B / C ) as our Vendor Or Customer or there is some other provision in SAP??
Regards
Honey

Hi,
You can treat them as a seperate Vendor or Customer and both to your existing company A.

How can i clear the vendor and customer open line items at a time same vendor as a customer of the company (same vendor same customer and equal invoices )

my vendor and customer are same . purchase invoice due100000 and sales invoice amount is also 100000 at a time with any manual action , have any setting for cleared both vendor and customer line items at a time ...........

X Ltd. will be Vendor & Customer.
Purchase Invoice is booked under Vendor SAP number & Sales Invoice is booked under Customer SAP number. Then you can transfer amount from Vendor to Customer or vice versa with T-code F-04.
Then if you have transferred amount from customer to Vendor (F-04), Vendor account will have two entries Debit & Credit. Then go for clearance with T-code F-44 clear Vendor.

Filter groups for outbound Vendor master , customer master idocs

I need to create Vendor , Customer IDOCS CREMAS and DEBMAS only when the user changes the company code . I do not want the IDOCS to be produced when any other fields change.
I am able to achieve the same using filter groups for Cost Center but not for Company Code.
Thanks,

Vendor and Customer Hard and Group Currency balances

Please let me know the table names of Vendor, Customer and GL balances for Hard and Group currencies (Ex KNC1 for Customer balance in Company Code Currency)
Ramesh

I don't think they are available.
But if you have any requirement in the customization report, you can convert the values of KNC1 with TCURR table rates based on the posting date.

Vendor as customer and viceversa

Hello,
My scenario is that i have several vendors that are customers at the same time. And viceversa, several customers that are vendors too. I have made the customizing, into the customer I have put the vendor nr and the check 'clearing with vendor', and into the vendor the customer nr and the check 'clearing...'. I have anyway two problems:
1) When i execute f-28 (incoming payments) or f-53 (outgoing payments), i see the items of the customer/vendor both. No problem. But i can't clear different amounts. I have:
Customer: +232 EUR
Vendor:    -136 EUR
And i can't clear these.
2) My second problem comes when i execute F110 (automatic payments). At the end of the process i see the payment to make to vendor and one exeption for the customer incoming payment.
> Bank details are being checked
>   System reads house banks and checks if they are allowed
> Our bank DUMMY is being checked
> Bank different from the specified bank AA in master record or items
>   House bank is selected ...
> No permitted payment method exists
Information re. vendor 1 / customer 2 / paying company code 01 ...
... payment not possible because of reported error
Thank you all the experts.

In the example you have a payment will need to be received sent - therefore a payment method needs to be applied to the customer and vendor master.
If you want to offset the customer invoice against the vendor invoice - you can clear it via F-32, and then add other items "K" for account group and then the Vendor number.

Prevent creation of a PO to a non company code Vendor

Hi,
We have had a scenario where we have been ableo to create a purchase order to a vendor that doesnt exist in that company code. The purchase order will let you Goods receipt this also and will only cause a problem upon invoicing it.
Since a Purchase order is considered a legal document we believe we should be able to prevent PO being saved if the vendor used does not exist in the company code selected in the PO header data.
I can see why sap allows it as you put in the vendor before the company code is entered but can we prevent this being saved or a message coming up on the system when this combination is entered?
Thanks

Hi Tracey Sparry,
This can achieved as below.
An organizational unit in Logistics, subdividing an enterprise according to the requirements of Purchasing.
A purchasing organization procures materials and services, negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors, and is responsible for such transactions.
You specify the form of procurement by assigning purchasing organizations to company codes and plants.
Possible forms are:
Enterprise-wide: One purchasing organization procures for all the company codes of a client - that is, for all companies belonging to a corporate group
Company-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one company code
Plant-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one plant
In this way you can assig purchase orgnization to company code which is not necessary but in you case it is necessary so when you are creating vendor with purcahse org and company code it will establish link when you are creating purchase org and company code it will not not allow to proceed further it gives error that xxx vendor id not defined in company code and purchase org and stop further to save PO.

Use of Vendor and Customer in 'Define Shipping Data for Storage Location"

Under the stock transfer order configuration, there is a IMG step "Define Shipping Data for Storage Location".
In this at storage location level, we can assign, sales org/distribution channel, division and VENDOR and CUSTOMER to storage location.
The customer number is used a sold-to-party in outbound deliveries.
But I am not able to figure out what's the use of VENDOR number we are specifying in this step.
If I am assiging the VENDOR Number here to every storage location, then when I am creating cross-company code Stock transport order, which vendor code I will select the one assigned to PLANT or one Assigned to Storage location.
Also I need to know what vendor account group I will use for creating this storage location vendor. I have more than one storage locations) under one plant. Soif I used account group as "0007" plant, SAP doesn't allow me to assigne one plant code to 2 vendors and in vendor master on 'additional purchasing data' screen I am not seeing storage location field, it has only 'PLANT' field.
So I need to know-
1. Which account group to use for creating storage location vendor
2. What's the ultimaye use of this vendor code
3. What vendor # I will use while creating cross-company PO (one for plant or one for storage location.
Thanks

Hi,
Define Shipping Data
Here in this step you maintain the customer number of the receiving plant. This customer number is used in SD shipping processing to identify the goods recipient (ship-to party) if stock transfer to be carried out with an SD delivery
A goods receipt can be planned in the receiving plant.
You can enter a vendor (transport vendor) in the stock transport order
In IMG step "Define Shipping Data for Storage Location".
You can assign sales org/distribution channel, division and VENDOR and CUSTOMER to storage location through Plant only.Means this Vendor is created for entering in the STO .This vendor is created for the the Plant (Supplying Plant)so as u can create STO.

Use of trading partner field in GL Master, Vendor and Customer Master

Can anybody explain in detail what is the use of trading partner in masters.
In GL Master, whether it needs to be updated for all the GLs or only a specific GLs.

The Trading partner field in customer and Vendor master is used to identify the affiliated companies involved in intercompany transactions.
The trading partner field is copied into the account receivable and payable transactions from the customer and vendor master. The Trading partner field also appears in the line items of the offsetting clearing accounts via substitutons.
The trading partner field subsequently can be used during consolidation to eliminate intercompany receivables and payables from the balance sheet and eliminate Intercompany sales and expense figures from the P&L statement.
Customer or vendor invoice: Trading partner information is captured from the customer and vendor master.
Invoice receipts against clearing account and transfers with clearing: While posting Invoice receipt during an Intercompany transaction, the invoice receipt can be posted to a clearing account instead of expense account. The selection of open items must be restricted to those with a certain trading partner when posting a transfer later on, as the trading partner is copied into the transfer line item.
Customer and Vendor Payments: If document types for payments are configured to allow for more than one trading partner in a payment document then the trading partner is copied only on the customer and vendor line item and not on the offsetting entry.
Assets transferred between company codes: If an asset is transferred between group company codes, two accounting documents are generated in each of the involved company codes. The trading partner of each document must be set to the company id of the other company code.
When goods are received from group company code the trading partner is picked for the inventory and GR/IR line items from the vendor mentioned on the order. If invoices are open as on the balance key date then group-internal provisions are created from the GR/IR accounts. These provisions can later be eliminated in Consolidation system.

Confirmation of Vendor and Customer General Data

Hi,
I have a following scenario. we want to allow the person with specific company code to confirm the vendor and customer data of his own company data.
User1 with Company Code C1
User2 with Company Code C1
User3 with Company Code C2
User4 with Company Code C2
Suppose User1 creates or changes the vendor data. Now only User2 with company code C1 should be allowed to confirm the changes using T-CODE FK09(for vendor) and not any other user 3 & 4 with Company code C2. and vice versa.
Is there any user exit in FK09 that will allow me to add these checks or any other possible solution.

Vendor Warranty & Customer Warranty determination

Hi,
in my scenario I need to be able to determine eithin a transaction either a Cutomer or a Vendor warranty (the warranty linked to my iObject could have been sold by my Company or by a Third Paarty Insurer).
By the way, from standard it seems to be possible to associate to a transaction type a profile which allows the determination of only one of the typologies of warranty.
Could anyone suggest me a way to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Andrea Ricci

Hi Hrishi,
In warrenty tab in a Warrenty product (Transaction: COMMPR01) you have a field named 'Warrenty Category'. It could be either Customer warrenty or Vendor Warrenty.
Any warrenty thus can be classified as vendor or customer warrenty and those can certainly be determined in the transaction.

Additional field Profit Centre for vendor and customer

Hi All,
We have created a web Dynpro application for posting documents for one of our client. The application is designed to park the document and has various level of approval before it is posted.
The issue we are facing now is that they have done a screen enhancement for the customer and vendor line item where they included an additional field for profit centre for cross profit centre posting, which could be only posted directly.
Since the Web Dynpro application is designed to park and post we are unable to store the profit centre value passed in the customer or vendor line items. Someone please let me know if we could store the value temporarily till the document is posted. We do not have profit centre field in the standard table for the vendor or the customer.

Prashanth
