How unrealised sales is handled by SEM - BCS?

Hi all,
For intercompany transferred of inventory at profit, there are two elimination involved:-
- Unrealised Sales
- Unrealised Profit & Loss
In SEM BCS, elimination of unrealised profit & loss is handled by IPI. How about unrealised sales?
Many thanks.

Renee,
You cannot post directly to clearing items. That's why you get the error. The only possibility is to do it with reclasses on 01-10 level of postings without the doc type assigned.
But you don't need it. AFAIU, you try to make entries for unrealised profit in inventory? Then  the entries you make should be as following:
DR COGS (or any other cost/expense account) in P&L
CR Inventory (B/S)
The system will automatically add:
DR Clearing item in B/S
CR Clearing item in P&L
It's how the clearing items work.
For an example of this functionality (maybe it'll help you to configure it properly) see here:

  • SEM-BCS Journal Posting for Elim.inventory

    Hi,
    I have setting for Elim.inventory as below :
    In menu "posting item", I set "Finished Good" as an inventory item. And in the folder "Offsetting Item", I set "Net Sales" for debit side and "COGS unrealised profit on inventory" for credit side.
    After that,
    I input AFD for inventory managing unit (cons unit AA) => book value = 300 USD
    for Supplying managing Unit (cons unit BB) => Gross Margin=25%.
    Then I execute tas for Elim.inventory.
    It create journal as follow :
    Dr   Net Sales                     75
    Cr   Finished Good                       75
    Dr   B/S current Year Profit   75
    Cr   P/L current Year Profit           75
    <b>Is that journal correct?</b> because my accounting user said that it should be as follow :
    Dr   Net Sales                      300
    Cr  COGS unrealised profit             225
    Cr   Finished Good                          75
    <b>The other question  is :</b>
    How to set the "freight cost"  ? and what are the journal like ?
    Thanks in advance

    For the sake of truth:
    your entries also were correct (and even more correct than I proposed).

  • How SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?

    Hi,
    I would like to find out how SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?
    Income statement
    Profit after Tax - 50
    Balance Sheet
    Retained profit (last year) - 100
    Current Year profit - 50 
    How do i configurate 'Profit after Tax' = 'Current Year profit' in workbench? Is BCS going to store the computed results?
    Balance items (ie  'Retained profit (last year)' and 'Current Year profit') by default are carry forward to next year in BCS.
    Do i need to configurate  'Current Year profit' add to 'Retained profit (last year)'?
    Pls advise.
    Thanks.
    Regards, Renee

    Hi Renee,
    By default, the balance sheet items are to be carried forward to next year. If you don’t make any settings, both items, Retained profit (last year) and Current Year profit will be transferred to themselves, that is not correct.
    You need to show the system which items are to be carried forward not to themselves.
    To force the system to make the proper transfer, in UCWB go to Consolidation Functions -> Balance Carryforward -> Items to be Carried Forward.
    Enter there the following information:
    <b>Orig. Item__________Debit Item_______Credit Item</b>
    Current Year profit____RE (last year)_____RE (last year)
    Do the similar operation for all items to be carried to other than themselves items, for example dividends of the current and last years etc.
    Hope this helps.

  • SEM-BCS how to make Consolidation Unit with Business Area

    Hi all,
    I am newbie in SEM-BCS and implementing BW-based BCS. Our situation is as follows.
    Situation
    - we have 7 companies worldwide and 4 different Business areas.
       Every company consists of at least two business areas in R/3.
    - we have sales transaction in FI among companies.
    requirement
    - we need consolidated F/S in whole consolidation group and consolidated F/S in Business area level.
    actually, we are planning to make the consolidation unit in company level.
    Do we have to break down consolidation unit in business area? or just breakdown category solves our requirement?
    If we have sales transaction even between business areas within certain company, do we have to make it in business area?

    Following are the answer to your questions…
    Q:   What to do for using this cube in BCS?
    A:    Add the business area to the cube. Generate the data basis and the business area gets added to all ODS/DSO , virtual cube.
    Suggestion: To avoid deleting the Profit center cube, since you can reduce the complication.
    Q:   Is it the problem about DATA BASIS Role?
    A:   No. Assign the role of subassignment or consolidation unit as needed. If you are giving the role of consolidation unit to business area, you need to insert the char Partner business area also in the cube.
    Q:   Is there some materials to solve this situation?
    A:   Refer the matrix consolidation material in help.sap.com from BCS portion.  As per SAP literature any relevant object can be made as second consolidation unit such as business area, functional area etc. Don’t fear. Once you start it the issue will be resolved in few days.
    Expected complication:
    If you are going to make business area as subassignment then it is simple. But if you are making business area as Consolidation unit, go for partner business area in cube.
    Ensure with your BI consultant that all BCS messages are addressed in BI infoobject for business area specifically.
    Things can get complicated only if we allow for it get complicated. But you are doing great.. Keep  posted.. Good luck.!!!..

  • How to prepare FI-GL for Consolidation in SEM BCS

    Hello together,
    can somebody tell me in a few steps how to activate the FI-GL (0FI_GL_6) that it can be used for consolidation in SEM BCS. My problem is that FI_GL_6 (and also FIGL_C10 for new FI-GL) have not all required fields for consolidation in SEM BCS, especially movement type is missing.
    I know how to use the BCS data collection functionality "load of data stream" and I also know how to activate the BI Content for FI (and how to connect the data basis from BCS with the "FI Cube" via source data basis).
    But how can I prepare the FI Cube (DataSource, InfoSource) that it concludes all neccessary informations?
    Thanks for support.

    we consolidate on the BSEG tables for actuals and GLPCP for plan data, it all depends on your business requirements, if you feel that the details out of GL_6 is insufficient find out the tables that bring the needed information and build a custom data source, but my guess is that the content datasrc's should solve the issue in most cases.

  • SEM-BCS (BW Reporting)

    Hi All,
    I would like to know how SEM-BCS stores data (balance values) in BW cube. If I have to generate a B/S report, how would I restrict the Key Figure to show balance as of the 2nd quarter?  The issue is the ranging of the Posting Period.  Is it (4 to 6) or 6(Last month of quarter) or (1 to 6)?
    Thank.

    it depends what you want. you want to show cumulative balance or non-cumulative balance from ytd.
    since it is balance sheet, i would assume u r refereing to the cumulative balance from ytd ( which also includes the balance carry forward.)
    in that you can restrict it to period 1 through 6.
    other case:
    you report only shows the monthly balances or transactions in the month. then you can go for period restriction period 6.
    hope this helps.

  • SEM-BCS Short Dump while executing Manual Posting Task

    Hi SEM-BCS Colleagues,
    I am having a peculiar problem with relation to the settings for Manual Postings. I have three scenarios for which I have defined manual document types and tasks 1) Standardizing Entry (Data Collection) 2) Manual Document in IU for adjustment 3) COI Group level manual postings. I am just creating and not changing any settings for document field properties also. I have configured monthly consolidation frequency and period category and I am posting document type 1 in Local Currency and 2 and 3 in Group Currency since they are after currency translation.
    Have any of you faced similar problem and help me please?

    Hello,
    I am also getting short dump during data collection in BCS.
    we recently upgraded the system to SP20. Is it anyway related to upgrade.
    I also checked the MYSELF as a source system, but not found one.
    Could you please let me know how you have solved this issue.

  • Inconsistent Query Result in SEM-BCS using Virtual Info Provider

    We have just upgraded to BW 7.0 and SEM-BCS 6.0. When we run an existing 3.5 BW query for BCS through the Virtual Info Provider against the basic consolidation cube, we are getting inconsistent results. Sometimes we get the correct result, and other times our results are not rolling up correctly causing an out of balance on our balance sheet query. We did not make any hierarchy changes between the query executions. Has anyone else experienced this? We cannot see the cause of the inconsistency. Everything looks good when running through RSRT DEBUG. Any help on pushing us in the right direction to solve this would be appreciated.

  • SEM BCS-BW Reports development

    Hi All,
    I need help and suggestion from your side .
    We have X -reports in SAP-BW whcih are actual & planning cubes based .
    We have  Reporting & Total cubes in separate system (SEM-BCS)
    So req is that we need to develop Y-new reports in SEM-BCS as it is the X-reports which are avialable in SAPBW.
    Problem is that while developing new Y Reports in SEM-BCS many Char Infobjects & Time Char,Key fig are missing in SEM-BCS cubes .
    Please suggest me how to proceed.
    Thanks&Regards
    Venkat

    Hi Venkat,
    I'm afraid that there is not much we can help you with. Everything in your case depends on the specifics, details.
    I can give only some suggestions. In many cases it's either impossible or meaningless to build all the reports from one reporting cube. That's why, first of all, try (yourself or with the help of functional people) separate all the reports you need to build into 1. using non-consolidated data (it might be a simple sum of all ConsUnits figures, without eliminations) and 2. using consolidated data.
    For 1st category, I beleive, you may use just BW cubes. For the 2nd one - BCS cubes. Take into account that the BCS cubes have some limitations on the key figures and time chars usage. And it's not prudent (or feasible) to insert such non-standard (for BCS) infoobjects. Insist on reasonable limitation of reports to be built from the BCS cubes by those which are really relevant for consolidation.
    Another investigation to be considered is: examine if planning, forecating and actual data are comparable -- I met such a situation when details and subassignments of budget data was significantly different from those of actual.

  • SEM-BCS configuration

    Hi Gurus,
    I am in the process of implementing SEM-BCS consolidation based on BW. I don't know where to start and how to start. Anu body can help me to do the necessary configurations

    Hi Latha,
    It is good that you are starting to learn SEM-BCS.  To do that you need to have the knowledge of Business Process.  Since you are FI certified understanding of Business Process should not be a problem.
    Add to this, it would be better to have knowledge also in BW.  As SEM-BCS is an application the storage of Data will be in BW and also the reporting.
    SAP provides enough documentation, at http://help.sap.com but initially you might not understand everthing at one shot.  Keep trying.
    Best of Luck.

  • General Questions about SEM-BCS Data Transfer

    Please help me guys ! I need a clearer picture as to how exactly the loading of data should be done to SAP SEM-Busines Consolidation
    Q1) Can I specify the Basic Cubes in my Data Basis Streams that I use for FI & CO in BCS-Workbench ? Or do I need to switch these cubes to Transactional, so it can be used in SEM-BCS ?
    Q2) or Do I have to export the data out of my FI & CO cubes in BW to a FLAT FILE, and then load the Flat File into custom Transactional Cubes ?
    Q3) Usually, for SEM-BCS would there be any direct connection to SAP R/3 or it`s via BW ?
    Please help me with these initial issues guys ! Very much appreciated!

    Hi Eugene,
       Great man! You`re back!...Nice to hear from yourself
       Anyways, I still am struggling to understand the Intergration from SEM-BCS with BW and/or R/3. If you have any material that can help me understand the intergration would be helpful.
       So, I had a look into the SAP Note 689229
       It says, all changes of master data nad hierarchies have to be made via the application layer by means of application SEM-BCS :-
      a) By Flexible Upload
      b) Manually in Consolidation Workbench
      c) In Subordinate systems from transports
      Hence, am I correct to assume that the only 2 options are permitted: Option (a) Flat File (b) Manually define the master data in BCS-Workbench ?
        So, now assuming that I need to define Consolidation Items into SEM-BCS.
      Because  there's too many, I would go with option (b) Flat File.
      So, I create a Flat File containing the Consolidation Items. Next, how do I get this loaded into BCS-Console ?
      Do I have to create a Transactional Info Cube and then load this Consolidation Items Flat File into it? Then following from there, I specify this Transactional Info Cube in my Data Stream ? or
      Is there a way, I can directly read the Flat File from SEM-BCS ?
      I use the following Info Cubes as source to my Data Basis:-
                       <b>Data Target  | Virtual InfoProvider</b>
      TOTAL RECORDS =   0BCS_C50    |     0ECCS_C05
      DOCUMENTS     =   0BCS_DS12   |     0BCS_VC12
       P/S: We don`t use the SAP R/3 ECCS Module

  • Authorizations for tasks (R_UC_TASK) / Best Practice SEM-BCS authorization

    Dear Experts,
    I am quite new to authorizations and in particular to SEM-BCS authorization. So I would be happy if you could help me with the following requirement:
    We have to setup an authorization concepts for SEM-BCS. Among others we want to setup authorizations for consolidations tasks using authorization object R_UC_TASK. With this authorization object certain tasks can be restricted to certain characteristic values u2013 e.g. for a certain consolidation group or a certain consolidation unit. We have defined a role each for certain consolidation tasks. These roles are not restricted to any characteristic value yet. We have for instance a role u201Cregional controlleru201D who is allowed to perform certain BCS tasks on a regional level (consolidation unit level). This would mean that we would have to create the role u201Cregional controlleru201D for all consolidation units u2013 see example below:
    Role 1: Regional Controller u2013 Cons. Unit 1000
    Role 2: Regional Controller u2013 Cons. Unit 1100
    Role 3: Regional Controller u2013 Cons. Unit 1200
    Role n: Regional Controller u2013 Cons. Unit n
    We have more than 400 consolidation units. So this would require a high effort. Is there instead a possibility of creating one role based on authorization object R_UC_TASK which just defines which activities can be performed (without restricting access to a certain consolidation unit). , and using second role which defines the consolidation unit access? u2013 see example below:
    A
    Role: Regional Controller
    Role: Cons Unit 1000
    B
    Role: Regional Controller
    Role: Cons Unit 1100
    C
    Role: Regional Controller
    Role: Cons Unit 1200
    In this case we only would have to maintain one role u201CRegional Controlleru201D and we only would have to assign the restriction for the consolidation unit. How could this be realized?  Or do you have any other ideas to solve this requirement in a simple way?
    Moreover I would be happy if you could tell me where I could find best practice scenarios for SEM-BCS authorizations.
    Thanks a lot in advance!
    Best regards
    Marco

    Hello Marco,
    you can enter a master role in the description tab of a role. All fields populated via program PFCG_ORGFIELD_CREATE can be maintained in the role. All other fields will be taken from the master role. So you only need to populate the field for unit with the program.
    Good luck
