How to decide company code?

Experts,
When we create a company code it will be just like "GE10, GE20"
My question is why we chose number 10,20..i can understand that GE - Germany but why we go for number and also is there any namespace to use specific number...

Sam,
You can choose your company code any charecters or numerals with in the 4 charecters(as per SAP standard). It's not required to maintain 10 or 20. Also this will be decided based on the easy understanding purpose as well as some of the customer will define like this if more than one company code available in the same region e.g: as you said GE10 and GE20.
So you can choose whatever you want.
Cheers!!

How to upload company code data related to Company Code BP01?

How to upload company code data related to Company Code BP01 FOR CIN?

Hi,
First check whether all the pre-requisites are completed.
I'm assuming you have installed the Best Practices Baseline package (for country IN). If you have succeeded in actvating the buildig blocks (as per your scope) using Solution Builder, you would have populated all the company code data related to Co. code BP01. Looks like some steps are missing.
Please refer to the OSS note 1408706 in this regard. From there, you also can refer to the "Quick Guide to Implementing the SAP Best Practices Baseline Package V1.604 (DE), which is self-explanatory.
Let me know if this helps.

How to display COMPANY CODE DESCRIPTION ON THE TOP LEFT OF PAGE

How to display COMPANY CODE DESCRIPTION(Field BUTXT) ON THE TOP LEFT OF EVERY PAGE OF THE REPORT GENERATED.
Actually I have collected BUTXT using
'select butxt into table itab from t001 where bukrs = p_bukrs'
where p_bukrs is the selection screen field.
REQUIREMENT: Depending on what company code we give on the selection screen, corresponding company code description(butxt) should be displayed at the top left of every page. how would i display it in TOP-OF-PAGE EVENT.

Hi
It's very simple, but what is the need to use <b>into table itab</b> in your select query.
Rather, define a variable
data: v_butxt type t001-butxt.
Select butxt into v_butxt from t001 where bukrs = pbukrs.
TOP-OF-PAGE.
write :/ v_butxt.

How to change company code in cost center master

Hi,
Can anyone throw me the light about how to change company code in cost center master? User make some mistake. They maintained wrong company code in cost center master and there are some transactions already posted to this cost center. I would appreciate all attention and point will be reqard. Thanks much
Best Regards,
Bird

Hi,
The cost center master data fields have time dependancy. Following are the details of time dependancy.
You can maintain master data for cost centers, cost elements, activity types, and business processes as time-based. Changes to any other time interval are possible at any given time. Data storage is also time-based. In this way, you can store multiple database records for a master data record, each holding different information.
The time-based dependencies are determined by SAP and cannot be changed. The following dependencies are possible:
Not time-based
Day-based
Period-based
Fiscal Year-based
Cost Center's company code field's time based dependancy is Fisal Year Based and hence, the company code can be changed on cost center only on new fiscal year. And hence, system will not allow changing company code on cost center master data until new fiscal year if transactions are posted to the cost center.
You may have to think of work around :
1) Create new cost center with correct co code
2) Repost the cost posted to old cost center (with wrong co code) to the new cost center.
Explore the possibility of this work around on your system with the key user and then see whether this option works out.
Hope this helps. Pls. assign points if this is helpful.

Can you explain me clearly how to make company code visible in cost center

can you explain me clearly how to make company code visible in cost center master data using tcode kmlv

Hi,
There is no way to activate the company code field. If your Controlling Area and Company Code have one to one Assignment, then Company code is defaulted from the Controlling Area. However, if multiple Company Codes are assigned to one Controlling Area, then Company Code becomes a mandatory field in the Cost Center master data
Also, in case you have multiple company codes assigned to one controlling area, please check the setting of the Controlling Area in Configuration and see if have selected "Cross Company Code Cost Accounting" . Also, check if you have assigned all the company codes to the controlling area

How to copy Company Code Account data from a client to another client

Hi.
In prod system, unfortunately, we have deleted all Company Code (CC) data from the system - including accounting payable data, and we need to restore data from backup. So far we have created an new 'spare' client with all restored information.
Next step is to copy CC-related records in related tables from 'spare' client back to prod client and append them into tables were all the records referring this particular CC has been removed.
For instance we see that the prod system is missing all CC-related records for accounting tabels such as BKPF BSEG and others.
The questions are:
1) How can we do this copy?
2) If we need to do this for each single tabel manually, how can we know which tables that needs to be appended in prod system? As far as I have notised, i see this will affect table BKPF, BSEG, BSAK, BSAS, BSIK, BSIP, BSIS. Any others?
We have allready triyed transaction EC01 for this purpose. But, unfortunately, this copy function, regarding Company Code organizational object does not seem to take into account the above-mentioned tabels which I need to restore into prod.
I suppose this must have been an issue before for sombody...?
So can anybody help with a strategy to solve this issue?
Thanks.

Just to be mentioned. This is regarding a particular CC, not all have been removed from the prod system. And I only need to restore accounting information for a spesific CC.

How to add company code data to BP in SAP CRM

Hi All
I have a problem replicating BP from CRM to R3,the error coming is "Fill in the required entry fields".
While debugging the error i came to know that Company Code data is not given from CRM side which is mandatory in R3.
Actually the Company code data is kept mandatory at ABAP level due to the Client requirement.
Now how can i add the company code data to BP so that this errors is resolved.As far as my knowledge goes there is no provisions for company code data in CRM ,now even if we keep this company code data optional in R3 ,this error is coming.
Please suggest the way out.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Ashish

Hi there
Thanks for the reply,yeah i understand that there is no company code concept in CRM system.
so,we mean by Middleware exit is the user exit at R3 side,that i understand too.
But here scenario is different in the case that customer is not getting replicated due to the company code being kept mandatory at ABAP level in R3.
Actually client requires the company code data to be mandatory in R3 so that customer id does not get generated in R3 without giving the company code info.
Now due to the mandatory check on company code at ABAP level ,what happening is that we are not able to replicate the BP info to R3 because if that check was not there we would have at least pass on the BP data except the company code and company code info would have been given in R3 itself.
So,i believe the way out is to remove that check and place a user exit in R3 so that at least CRM data is replicated and company code will come automatically.
Hope this will help me,if you have any better suggestion then please provide the same.
Regards
Ashish

How to change company code in Assignment tab (CJ20n-project builder)

Dear All,
Is there any config to maintain company code in assignment tab (project builder) ? We have a problem in our project. It shows that in basic data, user put company code A (in basic data) but in Assignment tab they put different company code let say B. When we do settlement , two accounting document created to company code A and B. By right it should be only company code A. In addition, we cannot change the company code, when the status is already Release (REL).
Please help how to change the company code B to A and how to reverse the accounting document that has been created under these two accounting document.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
nies

Now I understand your scenario, you have the Requesting Company Code and the Company Code Different.
You usually use this primarily with IM module if you want to manage the asset under construction (cross company) belonging to a different i.e., company code (Requesting ) than company code on main WBS.
You can not change the company code (Assignment Tab) as you already have actual posted against it.
You've also created an AUC (in wrong company code) and even if you reverse the settlement you would not be allowed to delete the AUC or the delete the settlement rule (its grey out as its already used)
What I can suggest is to reverse the settlement, lock this WBS which was created wrongly, create a new WBS and then continue with you regular process.
Above are my views but you can expect views from others.

How to change company code address in Print form used

Hi.
I have maintained the company address under the gobal data in config. However when I used the print form to print out the invoice from AP (FBL1N -> correspondence -> Request), the address of the sender / company code is different.
How do I change the address from the form / invoice ? How to find out where the form pulls the data from ? I tried SE71 but couldn't trace out anytime.
Please help.
Thanks.
Angel

Check your configuration.
Please follow the following steps:
IMG ==> Financial Accounting ==> Accounts Receivables and Accounts Payables ==> Customer Accounts ==> Line Items ==> Correspondence ==> Make and Check Settings for Correspondence
Define Correspondence Types
Create Report Variants for Correspondence
Assign Programs for Correspondence Types
Define Form Names for Correspondence Print (even you assign your form to blank company code also)
If you complete these steps you will get the spool request get generated.
Please ask your ABAPer to change the company code address and logo etc. on the form.
You go to FB12 - request for the statement
then go to F.61
Then go to SP02 - Take print out.

How to change company code currency after psotings have been made

Hi,
Good day! May I ask for your expert advice about changing company code currency? Is it advisable? or is it at all possible? If so, do you have a procedure for this? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Peter

Dear,
no this is not advisable.when You decide to create a Company, You have to decide which kind of currency You have to use for it. This is an asset. Therefor You have to take the correct decision before going live.
Now You can think to activate a parallel currency( transaction OB22), but please have strongly a look at the note 39919.
If You strictly wants to change the currency, You could refer to SLO service into SAP Market place.
Go Service Market Place homepage or Sapnet

I hope this helps You.
