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.

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,

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.

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

How to change chart of account to company code

Dear Guruu2019s

How to go further could anybody explain me.
Thank you in advance
krishna

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.

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.

Manage vendor bank account in company code level - Best practice

hi,
we have on our client several company codes, and we are thinking how to manage the vendor bank accounts in company codes level or in centeral level.
our problem with company codes level is that the vendor bank accounts define in a centeral level so technically with sap standard it is not possible. if anyone can tell me that this is possible i will be very happy to know.
in centeral level our problem is with the business process because of we do not have a person (functionalism ) that can be responsible for all the company codes, basically every company shoule be responsible for her vendors
please advice what is the best practice to manage vendor bank accounts in enviroment of several company code
regards,
meir

hi Raghu,
i know that but this is not my qusition.
which company code will be responsible to enter the bank account in the vendor master data? as i say the vendor bank accounts manage in centeral level and not in company code level and this is our problem and i like to know how other companies with the same situation handle with this issue
and also after we have the bank accounts in the vendor master data what happend if for one vendor has several bank accounts one for every company code? how the payment program F110 could know automaticaly which bank account to take (i know that there is an optoin to use Partner bank type in the vendor master data, and enter this PBT when posting the invoice of the vednor, but this is not good because of we do not want the the accountant will be responsible from which bank the vendor get his money).
regards,
meir

First create the country chart in OB13 and assign the same to OB62.
Then for each operational chart of account, enter the country chart of account in FS00 and this will be captured in field Alternate account number.
The relationship between operational to country chart of a/c is 1:1.

New chart of account

Hello all,
For an existing client and company code, (Without changing the company code and without creating a new company code) is it possible to create a new chart of accounts?
Best regards,
Deniz

Hi,
Changing the COA of existing company code with transaction poting will make issues.
Instead define a ccountry chart of account and assign that to your company code. This should meet your reporting requirements.
