Hard Question: Item-Based Approval for Multiple Account Assignment?

Hi Vadim and community,
Possibly.. this is my hardest question for you.
We need to implement Item-Based Workflow Approval. The CC Owner should approve only the items assigned to his/her CC. We'll do this reading R3(CO) data.
Thats not the problem.
The problem is: I need to use Multiple Account Assignment. I'll distribute one time in 3 o more CC. Is it possible to have an CC-Based Workflow Approval ? I mean, The CC owner should approve partly the item assigned to his/her CC.
Anybody knows something ?
Thanks for your reply !!! =)
Regards,
Diego

Hi Diego,
In my understanding you want to define one or several level of approval depending on the CC assignement on each item.
lets take an example:
CC1 owner approver1, CC2 owner approver2 and CC3 approver3
For a SC:
-Item 1: 20% on CC1, and 80% on CC2
-Item 2: 20% on CC1, and 60% on CC2, and 20% on CC3
Then in the item level BADI, you'll define:
-Item1:
Level1 ==> approver1
Level2 ==> approver2
-Item2:
Level1 ==> approver1
Level2 ==> approver2
Level3 ==> approver3
I had this requirement on a project, and the hard part was not the BADI implementation, but the CC owner link with the SRM users (cause all approvers have to be declared on the SRM, and integrated in the SRM org plan).

GR/IR Rounding Logic for Multiple Account Assignment

We have activated business function LOG_MM_MAA_1 (EHP4 release 604), GR valuated. When choosing Distribution on quantity basis and distribute partial inv proportionally, the MIGO postings are different from the MIRO postings. For example, we have a quantity of 12 that we allocate to two different cost centers 33.3 / 66.7 %. We receive a partial qty of 5. MIGO distributes the quantity 1.665 / 3.335, respectively. However, MIRO distributes the quantity 1.666 / 3.333 respectively. Since MIRO is supposed to accept the MIGO quantities and amounts, why is the percentage allocation different? Is there a way to make the percentages equal for MIGO / MIRO? Modification of the percentage field (VPROZ) in the PO to more than 1 decimal is not an option.
Example
    PO (quantity-based distribution, partial inv is proportional: Receive partial Qty 5 of total 12
                         Net Value            Qty              Percen           MIGO           MIRO
    Item:            9,600.00 USD    12.000 pc     100.00       4,340.00      4,340.00
    Account 1: 3,200.00 USD      4.000 pc        33.3         1,446.67      1,446.96
    Account 2: 6,400.00 USD      8.000 pc        66.7         2,893.33      2,893.04
The small difference of $0.29 for this example is inconsequential, but for larger quantieis it will have a greater impact on the account allocation.

U set or U dont set system will flag the GR non valuated once u assign multiple account assignment.
But SAP is coming up with GR valuated for Multiple account assignment in enhancement package 4.

GR and GR Non Val indicator in R/3 PO for multiple account assigned SC's

Hi,
We are on SRM 3.0(EBP 4.0) and R/3 4.7.
We have implemented the BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK badi for setting or clearing the GR and IR indicators under certian conditions.
But for Multiple account assigned SC's we get an error message "06181 With non-valuated GR, please also enter GR i ndicator ".
We have tried implementing note# 872000, but this has not solved the issue.
The PO's get created only if we force the GR indicator when transferring the data into R/3.
It seems clear that while creating the PO the system is encountering the GR Non Val indicator but not the GR indicator, so its throwing the error message (we get the same error message when we create the PO from R/3 with GRnon val indicator checked and GR ind unchecked).
The proposed solution is that in the same BADI, along with clearing the GR indicator, we will also clear the GR non val indicator.
This can solve the issue if the indicators are transferred as it is from EBP.
But can anyone tell me if these indicators are also checked/changed in any FM/program in R/3 before the PO is created?
Is there any customizing setting which is affecting this particular behaviour?
Regards,
Srivatsan

Hi Srivatsan ?
In ECC, you have a configuration point :
Materials Management->Account Assignment->Maintain Account Assignment Categories
Here you can untick the indicator you want by account assignment category;
Kind regards,

Fi Document is not generating in MIGO for multiple account assignment in PO

Hi,
I have have created asset po DG set 111 quanity is 4, i have created 4 different assets and assign quanity 1 to each dg sets in account assignment. While doing GRN system is not generating FI document for this po. if i am giving one quanity or single account assignment for as 4 then it is generating FI quantity.
PLease help me out why system is not generating FI document for multiple accont assignment in MIGO.
Thanks in advance
KISHORE

Hi
There is no option if you are not on EhP4... Do MIRO and see if the FI doc is generated
Only way is to do MIRO immediately after MIGO.. OR Schedule ERS (Evaluated Receipt Settlement) which runs every hour in the background so that MIRO is posted automatically based on MIGO document.... Basically, you have to do MIRO after MIGO.. Whether you do it manually or through ERS is a matter of choice

Customizing for multiple account assignment in OME9

Hello,
We want to create a specific account category with different account assignment fields (cost center, WBS, order, etc).
This account category will be used for PO items with single account assignment or multiple account assignment.
One more information is this specific account category will be used only for PO replicated from Supplier Relationship Management. This means PO document type will not be created directly in R/3.
We use ECC6 with EhP4 with business function LOG_MM_MAA_1 active, so we make MAA for GR valuated.
According to those elements, iI would like to have confirmation regarding customizing we implemented, especially for fields:
- "Indicator: Account assignment screen" populated with value '2' (Multiple account assignment)
- "Distribution" empty (Single account assignment),
- "Partial Invoice" populated with value '2' (Apportion IR quantities to GR quantities proportionately).
While creating PO in SRM and after replication in R/3, cost distribution is done correctly for item with multiple account assignment (Account Assignment tab with Partial Inv. = "Distribute Proportionately" and Distribution = 1, 2 or 3, depending on cost distribution type chosen) whereas for item with single account assignment, Partial Inv. is "Derive from Account Assignment Category" and Distribution is "Single Account Assignment Category").
So, it seems OK. Nevertheless, i would like to have confirmation values i gave with above fields are correct in order to not have to change them later, i mean after PO were created, if problems occured.
Thank you for your help.
Regards.
Laurent.

Hello,
During PO replication from SRM to R/3, customizing from OME9 is not read and "Partial invoice indicator" is always defaulted to "1" when item has a multiple account assignment.
This behaviour can be overwritten by implementing:
- either BBP_PO_INBOUND_BADI for method BBP_MAP_BEFORE_BAPI,
- or BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI for method BBP_B46B_PO_OUTBOUND.
So, no need to take care of OME9 customizing.
Regards.
Laurent.

ERROR WHILE POSTING MIRO FOR MULTIPLE ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT (ASSET)

Hi Guys,
We created a PO for asset with multiple account assignment. And we immediately do IR instead of GR.
While doing IR it is giving error
1) Quantity delivered is zero - Warning message
2) Account 245350 requires a Transaction Type or is Invalid - Error message
what may be the problem. how can we eliminate and post it
Regards
palani

Hi,
I would assume the G/L account you used was not properly set up. Did you get the same problem if you try to change to another G/L account? Perhaps, get your FI specialist to look into this G/L account-related error and verify it.
Cheers,

Invoice issue for Multiple Account assigned PO

Hello
We are facing an issue with a Serive PO which has account assigned to cost centre (K).8 costcentres are assigned .
While booking invoice on one particular date the invoice amount got distributed among all the 8 cost centres but on some other day when invoice was booked it was allocated to only the first costcentre.
can somebody help me with the logic how the invoice gets distributed and what could be the reason the invoice amount is not distributed among all the costcentres and only one.
Regards
Sarika

Hi Sarika,
please have a look at the following notes:
568541     MIRO: Default values with multiple account assignme
457740     MIRO/MR1M: Default values, amts for multiple accou
395043     FAQ: Posting invoices using Transaction MIRO
428157 MIRO: percentage multiple accnt assgnt f. service-based IV
Please also check the customize settings to in Tr:OME9, under 'partial
invoice' what is the settings to the cost center.
Also note in MIRO, system distribute the corresponding GR quantity into
acc.assignment's items proportionately based on the indicator 'Partial
invoice' and the data 'Distribution percentage'(VPROZ) in the screening
'acc.assignment' within the PO/item.
You can change the "Partial invoice' in the screening 'acc.assignment"
as '1' (Apportion IR quantities to GR quantities one after another)
instead of using 2 "Apportion IR quantities to GR quantities
proportionately".
Please check also include LMRMKF02.

Partial invoice indicator for multiple account assignment case

In ECC, the partial invoice indicator field (TWRKZ) has to be set when there are multiple account assignments for an item. But this field is not available in SRM account assignment section. So in SRM, when a PO is created with multiple account assignments for an item and transferred to ECC, error ("06"/"437") would be displayed -
Distr. ind. and partial invoice ind. must be set for multi acct. assgt
Has anyone of you encountered such issue? Of course we can add this field in SRM PO Accounting as a custom field and map it later when transferring the PO to ECC, but it seems to be an obvious gap between SRM PO and ECC PO, wouldn't you think?
Thanks.

PO issue (for multiple account assignment)

Hi,
I am greatly in need of help from you all.
The problem is as demonstrated under.
A PO is created using the Account assignment category A (Asset procurement). The material to be procured has the Quantity 4Nos.
In the account assignments 2 qty are assigned to one asset and another 2 qty is assigned to diffrent asset. GL account in both the cases remain the same.
After this PO is saved.
GR is done using movement type 101.
now GR is cancelled using movement type 102.
Now in display PO Header- Status tab. here it is showing the quantity to be delivered is 4 but value is shown as 0.00.
I donot understand why the value doesnt get fetched in Status tab of PO header.If I dont use the multiple account assignemnt for the above condition then the values are shown in the Status tab of PO header.
Thanks in advance,
Sheetal

Hi,
Yogesh is right (as usual).
When you create the PO and assign multiple accounts to it you will be prompted to change the GR flag to either indicate NO GR or a Non valuated GR (you CANNOT HAVE a valuated GR for a PO with mulitple account assignements on the one line).
The system does not post any values for this until the Invoice has been posted correctly (or posted and blocked).
So the GR (and return if applicable) always have zero value.

GR can not printed for PO-Multiple account assignment on single line item ,

Hi!
I made a pr with single line item with 3 account assignment on percentage basis.I created a PO against .GR non valuated was automatically ticked so no account assignment was created at the time of GR posting.
Can I make a valuted GR against PO line item with multiple account assignment.
I faced another problem .I displayed the GR and after ticking out put check box in the general data page of the GR doc. the output is being saved but the update is terminated immediately.and no output page is generated in this item level.This output problem is not there at the time of single account assignment at PO line item.
Can you please let me have the solution ?
Thank snd regards,
Suranjana

> I made a pr with single line item with 3 account assignment on percentage basis.I created a PO against .GR non valuated was automatically ticked so no account assignment was created at the time of GR posting.
When you are having the multiple account assignment, then the system will force you to have GR-non valuated indicator being flagged which results in the fact there is not any FI document at GR posting stage and this is the standard feature of SAP.
> Can I make a valuted GR against PO line item with multiple account assignment.
No, not at all. The disability of GR indicator can be set in OME9 with account assignment category
> I faced another problem .I displayed the GR and after ticking out put check box in the general data page of the GR doc. the output is being saved but the update is terminated immediately.and no output page is generated in this item level.This output problem is not there at the time of single account assignment at PO line item.
In fact, it is possible to maintain multiple account assignment for each and every PO line item by selecting the 'Multiple Account Assignment' button in the 'Account Assignment' View of the Item Detail of PO. However, for such multiple account assignment selection, no accounting document will be generated upon GR maintenance. This can only be done during IR via LIV process.

Multiple Account Assignment at the time of Good Receipt for one line item

Sap Members.
We have some contracts with cost center distributions that the exact amount is not known. These Blanket Orders require a receiving confirmation.then only we can conclude the cost center, If we create one line item with total amount of contract to one cost center, is there a way can we distribute this cost to the different cost centers at the moment receiving the goods
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Urgent plz...Error: Multiple Account assignment in BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE

Hi All,
I'm using BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE to create the PR . The PR is created successfully with service lines. The service lines for PR item has to be assigned to different account assignment. My problem is that account assignment is not getting assigned to the service line for multiple account assignment cases, instead the account assignment is blank for the sevice line.
Here is part of my code.
For Account Assignment
t_requisitionaccoun-preq_item = '00010'.
t_requisitionaccoun-serial_no = '01'.
t_requisitionaccoun-g_l_acct = '0000630010'.
t_requisitionaccoun-cost_ctr = '0801112560'.
append t_requisitionaccoun
t_requisitionaccoun-preq_item = '00010'.
t_requisitionaccoun-serial_no = '02'.
t_requisitionaccoun-cost_ctr = '0801111710'
t_requisitionaccoun-g_l_acct = '0000610090'.
append t_requisitionaccoun
t_requisitionaccoun-preq_item = '00020'.
t_requisitionaccoun-serial_no = '01'.
t_requisitionaccoun-cost_ctr = '0801111710'
t_requisitionaccoun-g_l_acct = '0000610090'.
append t_requisitionaccoun
For Service account Assignment
*PR item 10
Service item 1
t_requisitionsrvaccass-pckg_no = '0000000002'.
t_requisitionsrvaccass-line_no = 2. " line 1 is the header for service
t_requisitionsrvaccass-serno_line = '01'.
t_requisitionsrvaccass-quantity = '10'
t_requisitionsrvaccass-serial_no = '01'
APPEND t_requisitionsrvaccass.
Service item 2
t_requisitionsrvaccass-pckg_no = '0000000002'.
t_requisitionsrvaccass-line_no = 3.
t_requisitionsrvaccass-serno_line = '01'.
t_requisitionsrvaccass-quantity = '10'
t_requisitionsrvaccass-serial_no = '02'
APPEND t_requisitionsrvaccass.
*PR item 20
Service item 1
t_requisitionsrvaccass-pckg_no = '0000000004'.
t_requisitionsrvaccass-line_no = 2. " line 1 is the header for service
t_requisitionsrvaccass-serno_line = '01'.
t_requisitionsrvaccass-quantity = '10'
t_requisitionsrvaccass-serial_no = '01'
APPEND t_requisitionsrvaccass.
With this code, what I get is the blank account assignment for PR item 10 and correctly filled account assignment for PR item 20.
Does anyone done this before and can give me some help. Thanks.
