If you really want to allocate a different chart of accounts to the company code, first of all reset the company-code specific data for the old chart of accounts.
1. First of all you must, if it exists, reset the transaction data for this company code.
2. Finally, carry out the resetting of the company code-dependent G/L account master data (without the general master data).
Note:
When dealing with large quantities of data, resetting the master data or transaction data can be very time-consuming. In this case, it is advisable to schedule the running of these reports as a batch run.

When I tried to assign 4040 chart of accounts to my company code in Fin Actg Global Settings, I notcied that automaticlly CACA (Chart of accounts Canada was already assigned. I tried to replac CACA by 4040 But error message "Reset company code data before changing the chart of accounts"
I tried to delete G/L accounts Tnasaction code OBR1 & OBR2 But nothing changed.
I wish to assignment of chart of accounts in company code in Global settings & wish to re-assign different chart of accounts. I have not created any assignment of company code to controlling area, plant, sales organization, etcu2026 While removing this it says Reset company code data before changing the chart of accounts. Screenshot is attached.
1) When I am trying to remove assignment of K4 fiscal year to company code it does not allow me. SO how to solve this problem.
Should I delete company code & then retry the same?
Please suggest how to reassign chart of accounts to company code as no data like customer, vendor or sales transaction is made.
Pl advise solution THANKS

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the answer. I have not copy any company code to my co. code 4040. Just as new entry I created 4040 company code. In Org object Check everything about table found OK. No seprate G/L A/C is created by me for co. code 4040
To see if company code is productive means Active? In "Enter Global Parameter? Tab-->Cost of Sales Accounting ACTV is 2. When I tried to make it Inactive (Blank), it is not allowing me and showing error msg as below.
You do this in Customizing as follows: Cross-Application Components -> Bank Directory -> Change Message Control.
I checked this but asking for Application Area to put & I do not know hwat area I should put.
Am I going right as suggested by you?
I had deleted G/L accounts earlier but Sales Actg is active so sould not go ahead.
As per Venkat I had decided to delete company code, But I want to solve without deletion.
I am SD guy so asking many Qs of FICO as I am learning now.
Thanks
Reason why you are not able to delete the assignment is that, you have already created GL accounts for the COA. I hope you have not done any posting using those GL accounts.
First of all please make that you company code is not set as productive. if set prodictive you will not be able to delete any master data. So please remove the productive check(if any).
Then you try to delete the GL account that you have created for the COA. once you delete the GL account the system might ask for the deletion of the account group. After that you should be able to change the assignment.

Transport of Chart of Account at Company Code Level

Hi,
I see in IMG, we can only transport the whole Chart of Account(COA). Is there any way to transport the COA at the company code level?
Thanks,
CW

Hi,
OBY2 is copy form company code for chart of accounts. What I need is to transport chart of account at company code level from one client to another client.
Rgds,
CW

Client level, chart of accounts level, company code level

Generally what are the areas under client level, chart of accounts level, company code level.
For Ex. document types are client level, number range company code level
like the above does we have any list which is falling in the above levels.

1. Generally during customising when co code data is not asked , then settings are client level.
Country, Currency, Document types, all variants of diff types, chart of accounts, etc
2. Every master is having data - General data level (client level) for use by all co codes, Co code data level(basically for accounting purposes) and so on.
These are applicable to GL, Vendor, Customer, Asset, Matlerials, etc
For particular application we have more information at another object level also- Vendor- Purchasing, Customer-Sales, materials-Plant- controlling, etc
3. Chart of accounts level assignments are done for all automatic posting definitions-which is applicable to all company codes which are using same chart of accounts.
4. In material setting- valuation can be grouping level, co code level or plant level as these are related to costing and product costing.
Hope the above will give some idea.
In the above nothing is written about CO as you have not asked-

Diffrence between Master Chart of Accounts and Company Code Chart of Accoun

Hi,
what is the Diffrence between Master Chart of Accounts and Company Code Chart of Accounts?
Regards
Divya

HIi
Mater chart of accounts is nothing but the main account that is created at the client level.
we have 3 COA
1. Group chart of accounts
2.country specific chart of accounts
3. Operating chart of accounts
we can have maximum 3 chart of acocunts assigned to each company code
Company code chart of accounts is can be operating chart of account which contains the group of account used by that company...
If some specific requireement is there for the country reporting purpose than we need to use that and maintain that ,
Group chart of account is used for the consolidation purpose.
like we have 6 company codes under one company in differnet countries.. so here they will have one common COA which will consilidate the business of all 6 company codes...
Hope u understand wht u wanted..

Extend chart of account to company code

Hi Experts,
I have created a chart of account. I want to extend all accounts to particular company code, as mare assignment of chart of account to comapny code (OBY6) does not allow to use these accounts for this particular company code.
Please guide me how can i do that.
Best Regards

I think you can't just extend accounts from CoA to a company code. Because CoA and Company code sections of a GL account is always different. And there are certain fields at Co code levels like Field Staus Group which is a required entry and this doen't exist in the CoA segment at all, then how can you extend CoA to a Co Code directly?
Standard practice is to
-create a chart of accounts by copying a SAP standard CoA (e.g CAUS for US) t-code OBY7
- Extend this CoA to a specific company code by copying from a SAP sample Company Code (E.g. Co Code 0001 which uses the CoA CAUS) t-code- OBY2
- Do mass update for the Chart of accounts to have the description and other changes (T-code OB_GLACC11)
-Do mass update for the Chart of accounts (Company Code data) if required (T-code OB_GLACC12)
- Then copy the GL accounts from one Company code to Mutiple company codes (FS15)
Since you have already created the CoA accounts, you can possibly create all GL accounts manually in a specific company code (T-code FSS0) and then copy to other Company codes (T-code FS15)
Or You can use LSMW to create the GL accounts in one company code and then copy to other Company codes (T-code FS15)
Thanks

Account config in Chart of Accounts Vs. Company code

I am in a self study mode and had a question that may be very simple for all you experts yet confusing for me. What is the main difference? I know that any GL accounts that are to be used at Company code level are to be setup at CoCd level and the Chart is an exhaustive list of all available accounts. Do I HAVE to set it up at company code level to use the account, or do I have to set it up at company code level only if there is an account that is in addition to the COA thats relevant for that CoCd only?

Hi
CoA contain two segments:
1 Chart of account segments
2 Company code segement
Chart of account segment informatio is common and same across all company codes. So u can create GL accounts which will contain whether it is a PL or BS account, account group and Short and Long text which will not change across the company codes.
All GL accounts created in CoA may or may not contain in all the company codes. Some GL accounts would have been created specifc to certain company codes to meet certain accounting requirements. Company code relevant information may not be same across the company codes. For example currency. field status group, tax relevant accounts. For a company code situate in India, the currency may be INR where for the same account situated in US may be defined as USD. Hope it is clear now.

How to change posting period for a company code

Hi Gurus,
In MIGO while doing goods receipt i get this error " Posting only possible in periods 2006/05 and 2006/04 in company code 3000"
How to change the posting period.
I have serched in SDN, i tried transaction MMPV, and OB52 but i am not able to change as i dont know the basics of the screen as i am ABAPER.
Can u tell me how to change. or give sme link with some snapshots.
Thanks

hi
I think you need to check your fiscal year varian before you do the MMPV. Fiscal year is set up by the FI consultant and it is deciding in which fiscal year period your current month belongs to.(Transaction -OB29)
Ex:
if you use K4 fiscal year variant then this october month is treated as 2010-07 period. Because the fiscal year starts from April and 2010 fiscal year starts from 2009 april.
Calendar Year                 Fiscal year
2009 april                =       2010 - 01
2009 may                =       2010 - 02
2009 Oct                 =       2010 - 07
So first get the fiscal year and period accurately (I suggest get it from your FI guy) and put it in the MMPV
If you accidentally close a wrong period dont forget to follow these notes too.

Change chart of accounts in Controlling area

Hi all,
How can I change the chart of accounts in controlling area?
I've already changed chart of accouns in FA CoCode Global data, and I have to change chart of accounts in controlling area; In OKKP chart of accounts is in display mode

I get the message; where I have to assign Chart of acc to Controling area in OKKP is not possible
Differing charts of accounts: INT - CAXX
Message no. KT299
Diagnosis
The system makes consistency checks during assignment of a company code to a controlling area as part of assignment control.
The same checks take place if assignments already exist and you change the basic data in the controlling area, or if you define the controlling area and company code as a 1:1 structure.
If the check finds an error, the system cannot execute the function ("Assign" or"Change basic data"). If you do not maintain the required data for the consistency check (such as currency, chart of accounts, or fiscal year variant in the company code), this also results in an error message.
Chart of accounts INT, controlling area XX01, does not agree with chart of accounts CAXX, company code XX01.
System Response
Processing is terminated.
Procedure
Ensure that the same chart of accounts is assigned to controlling area and company code.

How to change my iCloud account with only access to the Apple ID

Hello everyone
Im using my previous company ipad and i dont have access to the registered iCould account.
How to change my icloud account to a new email account that i own.
I have access to the Apple ID Account but i dont have access to the iCloud account in it.
The Security Question was made by the tech admin of the company not by me, so not even that way its possible.
Thank You in advance,
Frederico

I wish Apple improves this Security measures so that it lets remove features with both logins, Apple or iCloud credentials.
Also the iCloud needs improvements, it should use the Apple ID not some other different login. The email part of icloud should be in iCloud but most people don't use iCloud mail so the rest of the features should be in the same email credentials as Apple ID.
This way im not sure if i take the risk on Restoring the iPad, i could end up beeing locked out of my own device.
All this hierarchic credentials are confusing. I would only need the Apple ID that is being used on the iPad to clean it up or turn off options like iCloud account currently on the device.
