Help! Business Area/Report
Hi all,
I am wondering if it is possible to create this scenerio:
To have 1 business area with Object A
To have one report with object A available to end user
To have another report with object A hidden to end user
I know this is possible to do by having two business areas, and am familiar with cloning but am trying to keep business areas organized. Is this possible?
Add an extra where clause :
select * from objects
where object_id in (<some subquery that indicates which objects user can see>)
Or you can use virtual private database:

Hi Chandu,
You may wish to try checking to establish if the document splitting box is checked or not. You can do this through IMG/Financial Accounting (New)/ General Ledger Accounting (New) / Business Transactions / Document Splitting / Activate Document Splitting.

Dear Friends,
Is there any report, which displays the document no along with business area. If there is no business area, that should also be display.
All the help will be greatly apprecaited.
Regards
SridharTo get the information, I would use SE16 and use table BSEG. After clicking on table contents, I would go to settings and click on fields for selection and add business area GSBER. This will give you the information. FBL3N can also be used in a similiar fashion.

Business Area - Reports - Urgent
Hi,
I have encountered a problem with business area wise document splitting. I have selected business area wise document splitting after posting values in the cost centers. now I need to assign business area in the cost center master data. Because of the cost center is having values, it is not allowing me to assign business area in the master data. Now i want assign business area in the cost center master.
Pls help me out in this regard
Thanks in Advance
RavindraHi Raveendra,
Try to modify your cost center (KS02), and then, press the botton "Other period analisys". Create a new period of vality (Example: Valid From today until 31.12.9999). You can put your Business Area without any problem.
I hope that´s help you.

Using more than one Business area in the same report
Hi,
Is it possible / recommended to use more than one business area in the same report.
For example, I have a sales (business area sales) report on one tab and a rebates(rebates business area) report on a second tab.
ThanksHello
Possible: yes
Recommended: no
This can certainly be done and Discoverer will not prevent you from having reports that use different business areas as you describe.
However, for management and security purposes it does not make for ease of use. As you know a user has the ability to share a workbook with another user. If they do this then ALL reports within that workbook are shared. If the receiving user does not have access to one or more of the business areas then some reports will run and some will not. This can be very confusing to an end user and a possible nightmare to administer.
My recommendation would be to have a workbook per business area and not mix.
If there is more than one business area per functional area, for example sales and returns, then so long as the users have access to both business areas then you could use a common workbook.
Personally I would not even do this, so my strongest advice would be to have all reports in a workbook written against the same business area.
Hope this helps

To be able to report by business area at a header level
Business area reporting at a header level in Procurement/AP Subject Areas
At present client is doing a large number of manual lookups in Excel to add Business area detail to certain OBI procurement reports. Reasons for why we are having to do this includes that the report is written at a header level but the business area detail is stored at a distribution level or the document has no distribution lines.
What client would therefore like is for us to devise solutions that would allow us to include the business area detail. Possible solutions that I can think of include doing a join between the employee name, preparer name and requestor name to the HR business area detail, and the way that the ‘Procurement and Spend - Employee Spend’ joins the employee name and approver name to the business area fields maybe something that you can review as a solution.
I am hoping that you can come up with a number of solutions which we can then explore in further detail.
The key subject area that we would like this business area detail to be available in is the ‘Financials - AP Transactions’ area but if would certainly be beneficial to have in the ‘Procurement and Spend - Purchase Orders’ and ‘Procurement and Spend - Purchase Requisitions’ subject areas as well if it is feasible.
Can any plz.. guide the possible soultions we can do with this CR

Je suppose vu votre prénom que vous parlez français lol bien que l'anglais ne me pose pas de problème.
En fait, il s'agit de plusieurs factures (avec différentes business area) pour un même fournisseur.
Au moment de la F110, le système comptabilise le paiement via une seule pièce mais avec plusieurs postes (un par business area) et la contrepartie le compte banque.
La case n'est pas cochée pour le champ T001-XGSBE donc je ne pense pqs que le problème provienne de là.

Business Area should be defined
Hi
I proposed that each location (branches) of my client should be defined as an profit center (for getting trial balance at business area level).
But my client is insisting for creating location as a business area and not profit center.
But i think business area concept is obsolete in SAP ECC6.0. I believe that the SAP has stop providing support for business area.
I want to show the OSS note or some link on the basis of which i can tell that it is better to use profit center than business area.
Please help where i can get this link or OSS noteMeenu,
I can't speak for what SAP will support/improve in the future. You can raise a message with SAP if you have doubts. ECC6 has improved functionality that reduces the need for Business area reporting, but I have never heard that SAP does not intend to support.
Use of Business Area is optional, but it is definitely supported in ECC6. And, ECC6 will be in 'standard' maintenance until end of 2015, extended maintenance until end of 2017. Will your consulting contract last longer than that?
At the end of the day, if the client wants it, and it solves his business requirements, and it is currently available, then why shouldn't you accommodate him?
Best Regards,

Business area Vs profit centre
hi,
can any one tell me what are the main differences between business area and profit centre.Hi Shanker
Business areas are used in external segment reporting (over and above company codes) based on the significant areas of operation (for example, a particular region, a branch, product lines) of a business enterprise. Financial statements from business-area wise cannot be drawn up for commercial and tax law. Business area reports (e.g balance sheets and income statements for specific area) are used only for internal reporting purposes.
Profit Centres on the other hand are internal areas of a company that the responsibility for achieving target profits or productivity goals.
The objective of BA is more for reporting purpose whereas PC allows to analyse areas of reponsibility & to delegate reponsibility to decentralised units.
Thus PC are basically treated as companies within a company & ensures effective control.
I hope this helpls.

Kavitha

Change cost center business area in one year
HI,
Our user create a cost center and wrongly key in a business area value. The cost center valid from Jan 13 2010 to Dec 31 9999.
And already some transaction data post to this cost center.
Now i want to delete the business area in the cost center master data, SAP will give error message.
Do you know any way to delete the business area for the cost center?
Or if i debug to change the business area (i do it successfully in quality system), whether it will have some other problem?
Thanks.Hi David,
You are right. It looks like you can only change business area on a cost center master for the period starting from next fiscal year.
You can just create a new cost center with correct business area and use transaction KB61 to transfer the postings from the old cost center to the new one. If you have NewGL turned on for business area reporting, GL-CO reconsiliation is automatic. Otherwise, you will need to run KALC after executing KB61 or at the end of month. Of course, after all is done, you would block the old cost center from any transaction and delete the cost center for the period starting from next fiscal year.

Now we want to group certain business area under some group and for that Consolidation of business area functionality is given, we have grouped them , But no standard reports are available wherein we can enter the field consolidates business area as input field.
Please let me know that is there any more activation or further configuration required for getting consolidated business area reports
What is the procedure to activate consolidate business area in ECC 6.0, so that we will be able to see consolidation business area as input field for future reports.
PavanHi:
Try this report for business area wise

Hi,
Is it possible to activate Business area balance sheet in mid of the fiscal year.
Please reply.

It is possible to activate business area balance sheet in midst of the financial area. You have to note the following points in this regards-
1.Business area balance sheet will not be available for whole year as it is activated in midst.
2.Any business area report will also be available from the creation date of business area only.
3.If you are using many business area with specific user assigned to specific business area you can use user exits to have accurate posting & reporting for each business area.

Structuring a Business Area for Reporting Periods and Points in Time
Dear all,
I'm in the process of designing my first business area for discoverer.
The database is for people staying in accommodation over various periods.
(Anything from individual days to periods of 15 years!!)
The reports I'm producing fall into two categories:
(a) Reports on periods of time such as:
Accomodation days during a year broken down by Region
Trend of accommodation days per month during a two year period
(b) Reports on a particular point in time such as:
Number of people in accommodation on a particular day
I'm trying to work out how to structure the business area.
If I think about requirement (a), I'm inclined to create a view which
splits up periods into one month chunks (the smallest period I think I need).
By this I mean having a view which gives me a row for every month for which any period of accommodation is active. This makes reporting on a monthly basis fairly easy.
If I think about (b), I'm inclined to create a view which leaves the accommodation periods as single rows and then calculate a boolean field which indicates whether that accomodation is active on the date in question.
It seems that these two requirements need different structures in the business area. Maybe it's best to create two folders which draw on the two different views.
Any thought would be appreciated.
Regards
SuhadaHi,
As you would probably expect, it all depends on your requirement and the table design.
You can create a date hierarchy in Discoverer that contains the day, month, year levels and this will make it easy to create reports with totals aggregated at these levels.
However, if your table contains, for example, the start and end dates when people move in and out of accommodation, then you will need to have a period table so that you can report on the months between the start and end dates. The period table will list all past and future months and you can join this to your data to obtain totals for all the periods.
If you need to have reports that display zeros or nulls for periods where there is no data, then you will need to outer join your data with a period table.
The decision on whether to use views or folders and joins in the EUL depends on the complexity of your data model. If you need to join many tables together to produce a single report, then you should consider putting some or all the joins into database views.
Hope that helps,
Rod West
