How to change business area on posted FI documents

Hi Friends,
There are documents got posted with a incorrect business area.
Background:
The issue is in one company code XXX, plant XXXX a non-sap location.
Users follow a separate process and generate a file and place on Unix.
There is a batch job that picks this file from the unix and post the documents in SAP (f-43 transaction).
There are some vendor invoice documents (Doc type KR), posted with the business area 5000 in this company code XXX. BUT
The actual business area to be posted is 5300.
This problem is happening only from Oct mid as per the user
Requirement:
Requirement is , we want to change the business area from u20185000 to u201C5300u201D on all the posted documents.
ALSO is there any program to change the business arae on all the posted FI documents.
Please help us.
Thanks,
Raghav

Dear all,
no there is neither a transaction nor a report to change an already posted Business area.
Due to data consistency even if You insert the field GSBER into TBAER, You cannot change the BA value.
The only thing You can do is to reverse the document and to post it again with the correct BA.
I'm sorry but this is the sap standard System design.
I hope this helps.

Change business are in cost center

Hi
How to change business are in the already created cost center ???? Pls advice
Thanx

Hi
SAP note 62716 covers this process to change BA if data already exists:
I have copied below in case you dont have access to notes:
Symptom
When you attempt to change the company code or the business area in the master record of the cost center, the system displays message KS020 or KS134 because dependent data already exists, or the system displays message KS021 because the change interval is not set to the year limits.
Enhancement: As of Release 4.6C the report RKACOR06 is enhanced so that you can also change the master data from business processes (CO-ABC, Activity Based Costing) correspondingly.
Reason and Prerequisites
For actual postings, the company code is updated in the document. It is therefore not possible to change the company code of the participating account assignment (for example cost center) later on.
The checks for dependent data, however, are carried out on year level. For this reason, it is not possible to change the company code or the business area during the fiscal year.
Solution
Using report RKACOR06, you can also make changes to the company code and the business area in the master record of the cost center during the fiscal year if the following requirements are met:
1. The change interval is set to period limits
2. There is no dependent actual transaction data in the change interval or afterwards.
3. There must already be an analysis period for the respective cost center which starts on the first day of the chosen period. If this is not the case, you can create one with 'Change cost center' - KS02 (for example, by changing the cost center manager).
If the system contains dependent planning data in a plan integrated version, any respective profit centers and extended general ledgers that exist must be restructured. For profit center accounting, you can use Transaction 1KE0 for this purpose.
Caution! If you change the company code of a cost center, a reversal of a posting in a different period can no longer be carried out if the cost center is assigned to another company code in the reversal period.
Report RKACOR06 is contained in the standard system as of Release 3.1I.
For prior releases, you can download the report from the FTP server sapserv3 from the directory /general/R3server/abap/note.0062716.
Report RKACOR06 does not generate any change pointers. Thus, if you want to send the change of cost centers via ALE, use Transaction BD16.
If you cannot change the BA for some other reason, please provide details.
Regards, Elaine

How to Update Business Area Field in Posted Document?

Dear All,
Pls tell me how to update Business Area in documents which are posted without entering Business Area field. Pls tell me how to achieve this without using Validations & Substitutions. Any table entries can be maintained for this? Kindly guide.
Regards
Abhijeet

Hi,
I think, you need to post mannually if you have the list of documents posted with out business area.
ex:
1.Before posting of accounting entry as below, you should deactivate business area component in OB65 againest your co.code
2.Post accounting entry as below
40 123456 without business area 100
50 123456 with business area ABC 100
3. Goto T.Code: OB65 activate the business area component.
4. After posting of accounting entry like above you should run transaction F.5D and F.5E again, make sure that above entry not come again while executing F.5D.
First you can try this process in dev client, if you are comfort with this process then follow the same in quality and production.
Note: You can do this transactions in production client, only when there were no users working on the system.
all the best

Prasad

Changing business area on a cost center

We mainly use HR, but we use some FI/CO for accounting. (I am no expert in FI/CO whatsoever - so please excuse any incorrect terms).
Our users have entered incorrect business area to a cost center.
This business area is now registered on employees, and payroll/posting has been run up unitil October 2010.
If I try to change business area from 01.11.2009 (realize it is probably not good to change earlier due to postings); I get the following error message: "Field change Business Area is not possible (transaction data already exists)"
In addition, the message says: If you still want to change the object, select a suitable change interval by choosing "Edit -> Analysis period...". However, trying to change the analysis period I am told I have to choose year end.
My questions are:
1. Is there a way I can change business area from 01.11.2009 ?
2. Is there a way to change area earlier - and if so, what are the impacts+
I appreciate any help
Kirsten

Hi Kirsten,
Normally, it's not possible to change business area during a fiscal year once there is already postings in this Fiscal Year.
The reason is to make sure that there is no change within the fiscal year since you then would have different postings - cost center belonging to different business areas within the same fiscal year. Meaning that it is possible to change the business area for the next fiscal year like described in the long text of the error message KS134. The reason is that it is to avoid inconsistency update of the table (COSS, COEP, or COSP).
Although, If the following requirements are met, than it is is possible to change the business area during a fiscal year with the
help of the note 62716:
1. The change interval is set to period limits
2. There is no dependent actual transaction data in the change interval
    or afterwards.
3. There must already be an analysis period for the respective cost
    center which starts on the first day of the chosen period. If this
    is not the case, you can create one with 'Change cost center'
If the requirements are met, you can run the report RKACOR06 in SE38
safely. I recommend you to execute the report first with Test Run on
your test system.

Greta

Discoverer Report: How to find Business Area name from Report Name.

Hi
I opened a report in Disco Desktop 4 -> Resonsibiolity --> Report Name.
So I know Report name but don’t know which Business Area it belongs to.
How to find Business Area Name from Report Name?
Cheers
Vijay

Hi,
There is no relationship between reports and business areas. Each report can be built from many folders. Each folder can be in many business areas.
However you can try the following SQL which may give you the result you want for an v5 EUL. You will have to modify for Discoverer 4 EUL:
select distinct doc_name, obj.obj_name folder_name, bas.ba_name
from eul_us.eul5_documents doc
, eul_us.eul5_elem_xrefs xref
, eul_us.eul5_expressions exp
, eul_us.eul5_objs obj
, eul_us.eul5_ba_obj_links bol
, eul_us.eul5_bas bas
where xref.ex_from_id = doc.doc_id
and doc.doc_name = &your_report
and xref.ex_to_id = exp.exp_id
and obj.obj_id = exp.it_obj_id
and bol.bol_obj_id = obj.obj_id
and bas.ba_id = bol.bol_ba_id

F8BS- Business Area: Offsetting Posting is empty

Dear Expert,
When i execute F8BS- Display Payment Request. Field Business Area: Offsetting Posting is empty.
Could you tell me where i can put the offsetting business area ?
Thanks and Regards,
YL

Hi YL
If you intend to have a default business area for your bank clearing account:
You may switch on the flag 'separate payment per business area' (via transaction FBZP) so that business area will be updated in the bank (cash account) line.
Path: FBZP > all company codes > (choose your cocode) > field XGBTR

How to make Business Area as the reqd file on the Account Assignment level

How to make Business Area field as the required field on the Account Assignment level?
Thanks!
Mrudula Patel

You will have to be a little more specific about account assignment. Not sure what kind of document you are concerned about.
For G/L accounts, the account assignment (Field Statu groups) is done in customizing under SPRO -> Finacial accounting -> Document -> Line Item -> Maintain Field Status Variant. The settings for the fields to be displayed can be maintained here.
You need to know the field status variant used for the account. This can be found in transaction FS00 under the create/bank/interest tab. You can also reach the maintenance transaction for the variant by double clicking on it.
Hope that helps!

How to default Business Area

How to default Business Area at line item entry to particular GL accounts
Satish
Points assured

hi,
for getting finer records u can have user exist programme which will give you finer reports as in other standard report u might face clearing account problem. but user exit can be defined at the miner level of details u required . this is generally used fr multilocation multi business area configuration to which u can also attach SECTION CODE and get those reports in same programme by assigning business place.
user exit is more useful becuse u might be using same chart of account for all the business area and it is not convinient to have business area at entry level or assigned at company code level, instead by using user exit u can assign it to user at specific business area.
Warm Regards

How to fill empty business area in posted documents?

Hi SAP Team,
My Client need to fill the field "business area" for documents already posted. However, today all posted documents, have a rule + validation or substitution for this field.- fill business area to be filled in. For year 2013, my client want to re-assign business area at balance sheet accounts but the problem is how to that at customers, vendors account that are reconciliation accounts. Do you have any sugestion?
For balance accounts, for eg:, if my total in a gl bank account is in debit (no business area at this gl account level), my client idea is to credit that bank account without business area and debit it again but filling the business area. For Customers/Vendors, is not that easy because that gl account does not allow directed posting.
Do you have suggestion to handle this?
Thanks a lot,
Kind regards
Antónia Farias

For vendor / customer postings you have to create reconiliation account wise dummy sub ledgers.
E.g. 1.You have 3 recon. a/c's for customers then you cretae 3 dummy customer codes.
       2. Post a consolidated entry using this dummy accounts(one line item with B.A and the second
           line ietm without B.A)
       3. So at any point of time these subledgers should have zero balance.
       4. Please block these sub-ledgers once your postings have been finished.
