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.

Hi,
If you are purchasing as well as selling to the same party i.e. customer and vendor are same, you can do following.
1) Create Customer Master Data for the Party.
2) Create Vendor Master Data for the same Party.
3) Go to tranaction for Change Customer, go to Control Tab and specify the Vendor No in Vendor field.
4) Go to Payment Transactions tab, select the indicator "Clearing with Vendor".
5) Repeat steps 3 and 4 for Vendor Master data change as well. Specify Customer No in Customer field of Vendor Master and also select the indicatro "Clearing with Customer".
This will help. Pls. assign suitable points.

Returnable packaging-vendor and customer sides

Dear Experts,
I have searched through the internet as well as on this forum but I was not able to find the information I am looking for.
I have the following issue concerning the Returnable packaging process in SAP:
I need to gather overall information concerning the returnable packaging.
The process is as follows:
My vendor provides me with some materials that come with returnable packaging (e.g.Pallet01) -> Assuming I am just a middleman, I sell the goods to my customer and also send them on the same Pallet01 (one day my customer must return the pallet to me and I must return it to the vendor).
- What are the settings I must set in customizing and in material master?
- How would the process look like in the system (for example are there specific settings I must make to be able to see the packaging per customer in MB58 (I have set item category group LEIH in material master - is this the only setting to assure this, plus I am not sure if the field where I should put LEIH is General item category group or Item category group - both on Sales: sales org.2 tab in material master; Plus is there any way I can control what settings does item category group have? When I go to SPRO Sales and Distribution->Sales->Sales Document->Sales Document Item->Define Item Category Groups - there is no option to click inside the certain group))?
- In what report I can see how many Pallets I owe to the vendor and how many Pallets each customer should return to me (is there one report that would show everything or do I have to use separate reports)?
- How do I proceed if the vendor decides to invoice me for the pallets or I decide to invoice my customer (I would like to know the best practices)?
I tried to enter packaging from vendor to special stock type M (with move 501 M added to the goods receipt for PO), than it's working to see it in the stock report assigned to that particular vendor. But what if (and this is the case) I am selling the goods on the same packaging to my customer? Cause I am not able to add the pallets from special stock M to the outbound deliver.
Thank you in advance,
Krystyna

Dear Vikram Shukla,
In fact, my question is more related to how to link the returnable packaging with the vendor - raw materials combination (PIR), which for my understanding is more related to sourcing part.
Anyway, could you please advice how could I transfer my question to MM forum?
Many thanks in advance and best regards-
Mengyu

Invoice image in vendor and customer document

Hello,
We have got following requirement.
Currently we are storing pysical invoice copies of vendor and customer in a pysical file. But now we want to see the image of invoices in vendor and customer document respectively.
It means, if it is possible to have an attachment button or some icon available when we see vendor and customer document.
Please advise how can we link the pysical invoice with SAP document. And is this something related to DMS or Archivieng Link.
Please suggest.
Best Regards,
Tapan

Hi Tapan,
At my company we are currently doing just this.
We have a server outside of SAP that stores our images. We did not want to store the images within SAP.
We use the SAP document number to link the image to the SAP document.
We do all our AP input from images. After an invoice is entered, and the document number is generated, we forward the image to a
e mail address for the server using the document number in the subject line. The image gets attached to the document. Then the image can be viewed by clicking on the Services for object icon.
I am sure there is some more techical stuff that goes this, like an RFC connection. I am sorry I am not technical. I am the functionala AP person. We also have a program that takes the image and attaches it to the cross company document if there is one.
Hope this gives you some ideas.

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.

Ageing wise vendor and customer report

hi....
Where i can get ageing wise vendor and customer report?
Thanks & Regards
Rekha shrama

Hello
First configure credit management & customise.
A/R Summary
Degree of ageing
You can set the allowed degree of ageing in Customizing for Sales, under Basic Functions ® Credit Management/Risk Management ® Credit Management ® Define Automatic Credit Control.
Under Checks in financial accounting/ old A/R summary, you can enter the permitted degree of ageing for the A/R summary, in the fíelds Permitted days and Permitted hours. Here, you can define how old the A/R summary can be, in order to be called up for a check. If the permitted degree of ageing for the A/R summary is exceeded in the credit check, then the document is blocked.
Fields allowed days and allowed hours are only available for entry if you have entered an X in field Read A/R Summary in Customizing. The path is: Accounts Receivable and Accounts ® Credit Management ® Credit Control Account ® Make basic settings for credit management.
Updating
The A/R summary is either sent periodically (with the help of the report RFCMCRCV) from central Financial Accounting to the decentralized Sales and Distribution units according to ALE distribution model or, if an obsolete A/R summary is presented, updated for the credit check by the system per remote function.
In order that the system is burdened as little as possible, SAP recommends you stick to the following order:
Program run: Incoming payments in central FI
Program run: Distribution A/R summary from central FI to decentralized Sales and Distribution units
Program run: Renewed credit check for blocked sales documents in decentralized Sales and Distribution units
Status Management for Obsolete A/R Summary
If the A/R summary is obsolete, the credit status Credit data obsolete is set. This means that the document is blocked, and appears in the credit representativeu2019s worklist. In Customizing for Sales, in the section Automatic Credit Control, for the single, aforementioned checks, for which FI data is necessary, you can define whether a warning appears in the obsolete data, or whether a status is set.
If you are working with the A/R summary, and would like to re-process obsolete data, it is recommended that you set a status.

Same person as vendor and customer

Dear
I have to create the same person both as a customer and vendor.
I have done the following settings: Added the number of vendor in customer master & customer in vendor master. Also checked the indicator for clearing in both.
I just wanted to know if now i do a sale to this person, will the Vendor Outstanding Amount get updated? Are there any more settings?
thanks

It's not mandatory to use the same ID for vendor and customer if they are the same entity, you can use different IDs w/o any problem.
It might be difficult, if you are using internal number assignment. It may occur that the ID is already occupied by a vendor or customer.
You can link your customer to your vendor both in XK01/XK02 (LFA1-KUNNR; control tab) and XD01/XD02 (KNA1-LIFNR; "Control Data" tab). One assignment is enough.
In this case you can always see, which customer belongs to which vendor.
Sometimes plant vendors, customers are defined via external number assignment, to have the same ID as the plant, but this should be decided in advance...(separate account group is used generally, with separate number range)

Vendor and Material group

Hi Experts
How do we transfer the Vendor and material groups from ECC to SRM

Hi SAP MAN,
We do replicate vendors from backend system to SRM via transaction code BBP_GETVD, and products are replicated through middle ware settings.
These middleware settings are maintained in both ECC and SRM systems.

Create items by vendor and customer on Foreign Currency Valuation

When we execute Foreign Currency Valuation, we would like to create items in a document by vendor and customer.
Can we handle it a 'Corp.group-vendors' flag(Evaluate Accounts According to Group Definition) ?
Can you help with this issue please?
Thanks,
Sato.Ishikawa

HI,
With the report SAPF100, you will be able to valuate foreign currencies
from customer and vendor accounts.
It is not possible to post a foreign currency valuation directly to a
vendor or customer account. This is only possible for g/l accounts.
You can refer to the following workarounds:
From the technical point of view you can use FB01 to post such a posting
You have to enter a exchange rate manually in the first screen. In this
case this exchange rate is used instead of the exhange rate of table
TCURR (transaction OB08).
You have to choose a exchange rate which transfer the amount in local
currency to 0,00 in foreign currency.Another possibility is to use
RFBIBL00 in transfer type direct input for FB01.An amount of 0 in
foreign currency should work.
The system is designed not to post documents with 0 amount in foreign
currency to vendors/customers.

Can I use one Business Partner repository for Vendor and Customer?

Can I use one Business Partner repository for Vendor and Customer? or do we have to use Vendor and Customer Repository separately. How can we do that? What are the pros and cons? can any one provide some examples:

Hi Deepak
The key purpose of SAP "enabling" the facility of multiple main tables in a repository is to primarily "manage" those master data objects that are related to each other. Typical examples will be a) Customer - Material, b) Supplier - Material, etc.
While, it is pretty easy to add multiple main tables in a repository, it is also important to understand the purpose of doing so based on the business requirements.
Besides, you got to be aware that in case you are "fixing" any issues with one main table (master data object) for which you have to unload the repository, the users will not be able to use the repository that has a main table defined for other master data object. Hence, there are pros and cons of using this capability of multiple main tables.
So, it is really important to understand the "W's" - What, Why, When, Where, Who of Data modeling before actually working on the "H" - How to in the SAP MDM tool.
Hope this helps.

Profit Center population in the Vendor and Customer Line items

hello
our client is asking for getting profit center in the vendor and customer line items where in the view FBL5n and fbl1n we are not getting the profit center populated - in the new gl i understand that there is a standard report based on the gl account.
but our business is not satisfied with the report and expecting report at profit center level.
Can any one suggest any way of doing this.
regards,
Vijay

Dear Vijay,
Let me provide you my view of solutioning for this. This is an enahcement that needs to be done
1. You can get the profit center from the given vendor and customer line item at the time of posting, using an enahcement you will be able to capture it.
2. Existing the profit center field is not populated in the BSIK,BSAK,BSID and BSAD tables
3. Hence, in the same enhancement once you capture the profit center , you can write the code that profit center is updated in these tables also.
4. This will help you to do the vendor line item wise selection in the FBL1N, FBL5N profit center wise.
Constraints of this solution:
The only constraint remains where in the for a given document if there are multiple profit center, then the system will do the splitting profit center wise for a vendor line item, which will not populate the profit center in those tables as there is only one field available in the bsid etc.. tables.
This basically would be the one the soltuion where in as seeen from the end user ther eis no change in the front end interface , the way they are doing always they can do.
You need to also take care the % of document splitting means cross profit center postings /cross document splitting charactericstics postings and the volume involved in this. so that you can suggest this to your client.

Bharathi.
