Ichat groups and OD Master

I have had a look and seen that from information available there is either no way or no easy way to do the following. All the info I have seen is a bit dated so wanted to check if any one had come up with a solution for this now.
I want to implement ichat server or should I say I have set it up already and it works. I want all the users to be added and removed from ichat automatically and fall under specific groups such as directors, staff and so on.
I want to use the service for sending messages around the office as in things like "sandwich man is here" so that I don't have this going around the office email system.
So my question is has any one found a way to do this. I have my server setup as an OD master.

Annoying, Think apple need to get their integration sorted a little better. Any suggestions of other software I can use for this that will pull users from the OD?

  • Vendor/Customer Account Group and Master Records

    Hi Gurus,
    Please tell me during implementation Vendor/Customer account groups and Master Records will be prepared by FI Consultants or MM, SD Consultants?
    Waiting for reply
    ThankYOu

    Dear Verma
    It is the usual practice that FI consultants should prepare Account group and also maintain General data and Company code date in Vendor/Customer masters. SD and MM consultants are informed by FI to maintain Sales and Purchase organization respectively by SD and MM consultants.
    If this helps please reward with points.

  • I Cannot Add Buddies in iChat 4 and 5 - How do I fix this ?

Apple encourages you to first seek a solution at Apple Support. The following links are provided as is, with no guarantee of the effectiveness or reliability of the information.

    I Cannot Add Buddies in iChat 4 and 5
    Many people are reporting that they cannot add Buddies to either iChat 4 or iChat 5.
    The Symptoms are that the Buddy appears in the Buddy List and then does the "Brightening/Fading" cycle but fails to be anywhere in the list including Off Line Buddies.
    To Show Off Line Buddies, highlight the Buddy list to bring to the "front".
    Then go to the View Menu and Enable Show Off Line Buddies.
    (there is also an Option to display these in a separate Group).
    There can be many causes and I will attempt to deal with then in the order that they are most likely.
    A) The Contact is already in the Address Book.
    When Adding a Buddy via the use of the + Sign at the Bottom of the Buddy List (Then Add Buddy) or invoking it from the Buddies menu a drop down appears to slide down out of the Buddy List Header area
    In this slide out/drop down, you get the chance to Add the Screen Name and then the First Name Last Name details of the Buddy.
    iChat checks the Address Book and if the First Name, Last Name items do not match any contact in the Address Book already then the Buddy will be added to the Buddy list.
    As the Address Book does not allow two contacts to have the same name they will not be added to the iChat Buddy List if the name exists already.
    In iChat 3 and earlier there was an Error Message that popped up saying there was Feedbag Error
    See here for More
    Note: AIM Protocols call Lists "Feedbags". Contents (Buddies) are "Food" and of course Food is kept in Feedbags.
    The Address Book is one Feedbag in this case and the Screen Name (only) Buddy List held on the AIM Server is the other.
    The Software puts the two together for Display purposes
    The Fix.
    Either:
    1) Add them as Screen Name only
    2) Use the Arrow head at the end of the Last Name line to open the Address Book and pick the Contact.
    3) Open the Address Book and Edit their Card to Add the Screen Name, then drag them from the Name column to the iChat Buddy List.
    4) During any type of Chat use the item in the Buddies Menu to Add the person (it will display their Screen Name in Dark text if not in the Buddy List - Then item 2 can also be used)
    B) Parental Controls
    There are similar Symptoms if the Mac User Account is subject to Parental Controls.
    If the Mac User Account on the computer is not an Admin account it is a Standard or Managed one
    A Managed one has Parental Controls Enabled.
    There is a Tab for Mail and iChat.
    If it is turned on for iChat then all buddies are Blocked initially (in iChat 4 Jabber and Bonjour Buddy List cannot be used.)
    Adding AIM valid Screen Names (AIM, Those with either @mac.com or @me.com endings) to the allow List Unblocks those Buddies and they will show in the Buddy List as On or Off line
    The Fix.
    In this case if you are the Managed account you have to get the Admin account to add the Buddy to the Buddy allowed list in Parental Controls.
    Exception
    There is a very large exception.
    Due to the fact that the way Parental Controls blocks names until they appear in the Allow List there can be a problem if testing the same iChat Details in a Test Account.
    Lets say you are the Admin User on the Mac.
    You set up a second Mac User Account called Test.
    In this you set up iChat with the same details (Screen name) you use in your Main Mac User Account.
    You then test Parental Controls by turning it On and setting the iChat Limit option.
    Then you add to the allow List one or two AIM valid names.
    You check iChat and find they are the only Buddies that show up.
    It works, so you return to your main Mac User Account and discover that most of your Buddies are missing.
    On checking the iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts > Security Tab you find the Allow Specific People option is Enabled and the list only includes those Buddies you set in Parental Controls.
    Choosing allow All does not seem to bring back the Buddies even if you Log out of the Test Mac User Account.
    The Fix Here
    Is to Disable all the Parental Control Settings again (Remove names from any list) before Logging out of the Test Mac User Account.
    The cause is partly to do with the Setting in iChat > Preferences > General Section that reads "When I quit iChat, Set the Status to Off Line" which is not the default - leaving a partial login for Off Line Messaging. As a consequence your Buddy List is constantly being told to block certain Screen Names.
    A Variation on this is if you have Two Log-ins of your Screen Name from either different apps or computers.
    Altering the Buddy List in one effects the other login. The computer or app that was logged in first take precedence.
    C) Adding Buddies as the wrong type (In Buddy List - But always Off Line)
    This applies more to iChat 4 than it does to iChat 5
    At the Add Buddy Screen/Slide in iChat 4 you have to choose if the Buddy is an AIM, @mac. or MobileMe name in a drop down.
    The software shows the @mac.com or @me.com endings in grey in the Screen Name text field and adds this for you.
    This can lead to Buddies being added as the wrong type as in ralphjohnsr added as [email protected] etc.
    It can also lead to people being added with 2 @ symbols in the Screen Name ([email protected]@mac.com) and iChat not always telling you this is not allowed.
    In both iChat 4 and 5, as Jabber IDs/Screen Names also look like Email Addresses, we have to also consider whether AIM names have been added to a Jabber List or Jabber Names added to AIM valid Lists.
    D) Plain old Typos
    Here I am talking about misreading someone's Screen Name and typing that in (Such as receiving and email with a Screen Name in it and typing the letter O for 0 (zero).)
    And of course, just plain typing mistakes.
    The Fix for C) and D)
    The Buddy in this case will be in the Buddy List but will always be Off line
    Highlight the Buddy with one click.
    Do a Get Info (Apple()/Command(⌘) key and I key together) and their Info card will show up.
    Correct as Required.

    Some thoughts.
    To Show Off Line Buddies, highlight the Buddy list to bring to the "front".
    Then go to the {color:red}Show Menu{color} and Enable Show Off Line Buddies.
    (there is also an Option to display these in a separate Group).
    Do you mean under the {color:green}View{color} menu where I see Show Offline Buddies? (both iChat 4.0.8 and 5.0.3)
    A)… In the {color:red}slide out that appears from the top{color} of the Buddy list you get the chance to Add the Screen Name and then the First Name Last Name details of the Buddy.
    I kept looking for a button for the "slide out" at the top of the Buddy list. Found out it's the dialog box that appears when you click "+" (Add a new buddy…) at the bottom of the list. Yes, I can act like a beginner too
    (Slide out to me sounds like a sideways slide out, versus a Pop Up or Pop Down Dialog box).
    As the Address Book does not allow two contacts to have the same name they will not be added to the iChat Buddy List {color:green}if the name already exists.{color}
    The Address Book i one Feedbag in this case
    The Address Book {color:green}is{color} one Feedbag in this case
    B) Adding AIM valid Screen Names (AIM, Those with either @mac.com or @me.com endings) to the allow List Unblocks those Buddies and they will show in the Buddy List as On {color:red}of{color} Off line
    …     as On {color:green}or{color} Off line
    *The Fix.
    Exception*
    {color:red}The{color} you add to the allow {color:red}List{color} one or two AIM valid names.
    {color:green}Then{color} you add to the allow one or two AIM valid names.
    C)
    At the Add Buddy Screen/Slide in {color:red}ichat{color} 4
    At the Add Buddy Screen/Slide in {color:green}iChat 4{color}
    In both iChat 4 and 5 as Jabber IDs/Screen Names also look like Email Addresses we have to also consider

  • How to create automatic creation of BP from customer and vendor master data

    Hi gurus,
    can any one tell how to create automatic creation of BP from customer and vendor master data.
    Please give me the steps.
    Thanks
    Sasikanth.

    HI,
    Goto SPRO\ Cross application components \ Master data synchronization \ Synchronization control.
    Assign account groups of customer and vendors to respective BP grouping. This setting is enough to create BP in background while creating customer / vendor. But the fields groups are very much important, ensure mandatory fields should be sync.

  • Impacts in COPA of changing material and customer master data

    Dear experts,
    In my company we are considering following scenario:
    Currently mySAPerp 6.0 is implemented for all modules for the mother company.
    We have developed a new global template where there are significant changes versus the existing system, especially in the SD processes. Material and customer master also change significantly in terms of content in the tables/fields and/or values in the fields.
    The idea was to build the template from scratch in a new machine and roll-out all group affiliates, but now we are considering the possibility of making an evolutionary of the current system and try to stretch it to the processes defined in the global template.
    The scenario we want to analyze is: Keeping same organizational structure in terms of Company code, CO area and Operating Concern in existing SAP client and make an evolutionary of the existing settings to the global template processes.
    The doubts we are having are the following:
    Changing material & customer master data: Impact in COPA
    Option 1: Material master data and customer master data codes are maintained but content in the tables/fields is changed substantially, both in terms of logical content of specific fields and/or the values in the specific fields. We have following examples of changes.
    Case 1: source field in material master changes logical content. E.g. Material master field MVGR1 is currently used for product series (design line) and the content changes to be the Market Segment. The product series will be moved to a classification field. At least 5 other fields are affected by this. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
    Case 2: the source field is not changed so that the logical content of the field remains but the values change, i.e. for the same concept there will be different codifications. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
    Case 3: Characteristics where currently the source material master field is a Z field and the derivation is via table look up and where the Z field changes to a classification field. How can you convert the existing COPA line items to ensure that attributes are aligned? Should new characteristics be created or just change the derivation logic of the characteristic?
    Option 2: Material master data and customer data codes are re-created (codification of records is changed), meaning that new material and customer codes will exist and content in tables/fields is changed (as in option 1)
    Case: material and customer codes are changed. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
    Iu2019ve never phased a similar scenario and I fear that maintaining operating concern while changing source master data and also SD flows (we have new billing types, item categories, sales doc. Types, order reasons) may lead to inconsistencies and problems in COPA.
    I would like to ask you experts if you have come across a similar scenario and if from your experience, it is something feasible to do or there are many risks involved. What can be the impact of this scenario in existing Operating Concern for both option 1 and 2 and what would be the key activities to perform to adapt the existing operating concern. What will be the impact of the needed conversions on P&L reporting?
    Sorry for the long story. I hope you can help me out.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Eric

    Hi,
       First i think you will need to test if it works for new COPA documents created via billing.
      If it works fine then the issue is if you wish to apply these changes to the historical data already posted.
      Normally there are transactions like KE4S where you can repost the billing document to COPA
      However this may not be viable for bulk postings
      You can perform realignment (KEND) but this only works at the PA segment level (table CE4XXXX)

  • Pricing procedure and CIN master

    Hi MM Gurus,
         I need one simple procedure for creating Pricing Procedure.........and ......creating Excise details and relating  and can anybody show how the pricing procedure and excise (CIN) is related .
    Regards,
    Girish.C.M

    Hi,
    CIN Setting:
    Check Calculation Procedure
    In this activity, you can check and, if necessary, change existing procedures for tax calculation.
    Standard settings
    Calculation procedures containing the necessary specifications for the calculation and posting of taxes on sales/purchases have already been defined in the standard SAP system for certain countries. Every calculation procedure groups several tax types together into a condition type (for example, output tax or input tax) in the calculation procedure, and determines calculation rules for it.
    The calculation procedure determines for which amount the individual condition types are to be calculated. This can be the base amount (total of the expense items and the revenue items) or a subtotal. The entry in column FrmLvl, determines for which amount tax is calculated.
    Note
    In this activity, the condition types for the check and the possible change provided in the standard system are also displayed. Here, for example, the condition calculation rule, or for which base amount the tax is calculated is determined (= condition type).
    Recommendation
    If possible, do not change the condition types and calculation procedures provided in the standard system. Only check the standard condition types and calculation procedures regarding whether you can use them for your requirements. If necessary, make changes.
    Activities
    If you cannot use the standard settings, change the condition types and calculation procedures delivered to meet your requirements.
    Procedure (pricing, output control, acct. det., costing,...)
    Specifies the conditions that are allowed for a document and defines the sequence in which they are used.
    Example
    Procedures are used, for example, in the following applications:
    · Pricing in sales and distribution
    · Applying overhead in Product Costing (costing sheets) and for CO internal orders
    · Calculating accrued costs in Profitability Analysis
    · Output control (printed confirmations, EDI messages, electronic mail)
    · Account determination
    · Calculating taxes on sales/purchases
    · Calculating accruals in Cost Center Accounting
    · Pricing for resource planning
    Definition: condition type
    Controlling (CO)
    A distinction, in overhead calculation, is made between:
    · Base condition types, which determine the object for which the overhead is to be calculated
    · Overhead condition types, which define the percentage overhead to be applied
    In resource planning, a condition type determines the types of resource prices that are stored in the SAP System. These can be absolute or percentage values, for example.
    Real Estate Management (RE)
    An exact definition of a condition that specifies the amount paid for a specific service.
    Condition types include:
    · Basic rent
    · Advance payment for operating costs
    · Pest control
    Sales and Distribution (SD)
    A characteristic of a condition.
    For example, in pricing, different condition types are used to distinguish between a discount that refers to a net price and a discount that refers to a gross price.
    Treasury (TR)
    A characteristic of a condition used to classify financial transactions.
    Typical examples of condition types are interest, dividends, or full repayment upon maturity. The various parameters specified for the individual condition types determine how the flows are calculated in the cash flow.
    Return ->
    Definition: condition_type
    Condition type
    The condition type is used for different functions. In pricing, for example, the condition type lets you differentiate between different kinds of discount; in output determination, between different output types such as order confirmation or delivery note; in batch determination, between different strategy types.
    Access sequence
    With the access sequence you define
    · the condition tables used to access the condition records
    · the sequence of the condition tables
    · which field contents are the criteria for reading the tables
    Assign Country to Calculation Procedure
    In this activity, you enter the key for the calculation procedure which determines the conditions which are allowed per document and which defines the sequence of the conditions in the document for each country.
    Requirements
    Each calculation procedure which you enter must contain the necessary specifications for calculating and posting the taxes on sales/purchases. For more information on this, read the chapter "Create calculation procedure".
    Activities
    1. Assign a procedure for tax calculation to every country with which your company has business dealings.
    2. Make sure that the corresponding data for calculating taxes is stored for each calculation procedure which you enter here.
    Check and Change Settings for Tax Processing
    In this activity you make the necessary specifications for posting taxes. In doing this you specify under a process key the following indicators:
    · Tax type
    Output tax, input tax, additional taxes, or "not tax-relevant" can be specified as the tax type.
    · Nondeductibility of tax amounts
    For this, tax amounts are marked as not deductible.
    · Posting indicator
    Here you specify whether the tax amount is posted separately or distributed to expense or revenue items.
    · Tax not relevant to cash discount (Not discount relevant)
    This indicator is set only for Canada. If you select it, the system does not take into account the corresponding tax amount when determining the tax base.
    Standard settings
    Process keys with the most important characteristics for tax amounts have already been set in the standard SAP system.
    Recommendation
    Do not change the standard settings. Check whether you can use these process keys for your company, making changes only if necessary.
    Activities
    If you cannot use the standard settings, use new process keys and enter them in your calculation procedure. Do not change the standard SAP process keys.
    Note
    You must make enhancements to the standard settings if you want to specify a new account key in the "Create calculation procedure" activity. You must create and maintain this key beforehand in the "Settings for tax processing" activity.
    Internal processing key
    The internal processing keys are used by the system to determine accounts or posting keys for line items which are created automatically.
    The processing keys are defined in the system and cannot be changed by the user.
    Definition: posting key
    Financial Accounting (FI)
    A two-digit numerical key that determines the way line items are posted.
    This key determines several factors including the:
    · Account type
    · Type of posting (debit or credit)
    · Layout of entry screens
    Return ->
    Definition: posting_key
    Maintain Excise Registrations
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you maintain the data relating to your excise registrations.
    Activities
    Enter each of your excise registrations, specifying a four-character code for each.
    Definition: excise registration
    Financial Accounting (FI)
    An entity in India that is entitled by law to produce any goods liable to excise.

    Maintain Company Code Settings
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you maintain the data relating to your company codes.
    Maintain Plant Settings
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you maintain excise information relating to your plants.
    Maintain Excise Groups
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you define your excise groups. For each excise group, you can also control how various excise invoice transactions will work.
    Definition: excise group
    Financial Accounting (FI)
    A unit within an excise registration, in India, which keeps its own set of excise records.
    Whereas the excise registration reports to the excise authorities, the excise group is a purely internal organizational unit. Each excise group keeps records of all transactions that have to be reported to the excise authorities. When the time comes to present these records to the authorities, the excise registration compiles the information from all of its excise groups.
    Return ->
    Definition: excise group
    Maintain Series Groups
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you define the different excise series groups within your company. Series groups allow you to maintain multiple number ranges for the outgoing excise documents.
    Based on excise regulations and exemptions from the authorities you can maintain multiple number series for outgoing documents. But each of these series has to be declared to the excise authorities.
    Activities
    · Define excise series groups based on type of outgoing document
    · Assign series group to excise registration ID
    · If no financial postings are required for an Excise invoice in this seris group then you tick the 'No utilization' indicator.
    · If the CENVAT has to be paid immediately and you need not wait for the Fort nightly payment then mark the 'Immediate Utilization' indicator.
    Example
    You could define two series groups, group 001 for excise invoices, and group 002 for 57 F4 documents.
    Maintain Excise Duty Indicators
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you maintain the excise duty indicators.
    Maintain Postal Addresses
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you maintain the addresses of various customs and excise organizations that your company deals with.
    You use these addresses in the ARE Documents functions. When you create an ARE-1 or ARE-3, you enter the address of the excise department and the customs department involved in the export process. The system then prints their names and addresses on the AREs.
    You can then define a default local excise department for each excise group and a default customs department for each series group.
    Definition: ARE-1 document
    Logistics - General (LO)
    A form, in India, that companies have to fill out when they remove excisable goods from their manufacturing plants for export.
    The form exempts them from paying excise duty when they remove the goods from their premises.
    Return ->
    Definition: ARE-1 document
    Definition: ARE-3 document
    Logistics - General (LO)
    A form, in India, that allows companies to sell otherwise excisable goods from their premises without paying basic excise duty. The buyer of the goods must be in possession of a deemed export license.
    The ARE-3 states what goods are being removed and which deemed excise license covers it.
    Return ->
    Definition: ARE-3 document
    Maintain Subtransaction Type with Text
    Sub Transaction Type
    Sub transaction type is used for multiple purposes
    Subcontracting:
    It determines the subcontracting attributes and determines the accounts for the posting while doing a sub contracting transaction.
    Excise removals
    Sub transaction type is also used for determining the accounts while doing excise removals.
    With in CIN the account determination is based on the transaction type. So normally you can have a single set of accounts for Excise utilization. In case you need alternate account determination for handling various scenarios you can define sub transaction types. The sub transaction types and corresponding account assignments needs to be maintained in CIN customization
    Select Tax Calculation Procedure
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you specify which tax procedure you want to use for determining excise duties and sales taxes on input materials in India.
    · If you use condition-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINN.
    · If you use formula-based excise determination, use a copy of the tax procedure TAXINJ.
    This tax procedure also supports condition-based excise determination, so that you can work with both concurrently.
    We strongly recommend that new customers use condition-based excise determination. Note that once you have started using a tax procedure, you cannot switch to another one, otherwise you will not be able to display old documents.
    Definition: condition-based excise determination
    Logistics - General (LO
    A method that the system uses of determining excise duty in India.
    This method requires you to create condition records for each combination of vendor or customer and material (and possibly other conditions).
    When you create a purchasing document, the system calls the tax procedure assigned to India. The tax procedure finds all of the condition records that you have created for that combination of vendor and material.
    When you create a sales document, the excise duties and sales taxes are determined by the pricing procedure (not the tax procedure).
    Return ->
    Definition: condition-based excise determination
    Definition: formula-based excise determination
    Logistics - General (LO)
    A method that the system uses of determining excise duty in India.
    This method was used in the Country Version India Add-On and requires you to maintain additional data in the Excise Rate Maintenance transaction, J1ID.
    When you create a purchasing document, the system calls the tax procedure assigned to India. Each of the excise duties in the tax procedure has its own condition types, and each condition type is assigned to a formula. This formula instructs the system to calculate the excise duty using the data that you have maintained in the Excise Rate Maintenance transaction.
    When you create a sales document, the system determines the excise duties and sales taxes using the pricing procedure (not the tax procedure).
    Return ->
    Definition: formula-based excise determination
    Maintain Excise Defaults
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you define which tax procedure and pricing condition types are used in calculating excise taxes using formula-based excise determination.

    Classify Condition Types
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you specify which condition types you use for which sort of tax. Note that this only applies to condition types that you use with the new excise determination method.
    The system uses this information when you create a document from another one. For example, when you enter an incoming excise invoice from a purchase order, or when you create an outgoing excise invoice from a sales order, the system determines the various excise duties in the excise invoice using the information that you have entered here.
    In addition, when you create a purchasing document, the system only uses the condition types that you enter here.
    · For taxes on purchases, use the condition types contained in the tax procedure.
    · For taxes on sales, use the condition types contained in the pricing procedures.
    Standard settings
    The standard system comes with sample settings for the tax calculation procedures and pricing procedures.

    Specify Excise Accounts per Excise Transaction
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you specify which excise accounts (for excise duty and CENVAT) are to be posted to for the various transaction types. Enter all the accounts that are affected by each transaction type.
    If you use subtransaction types, enter the accounts for each subtransaction type as well.
    Activities
    Transaction type UTLZ is used for determining accounts only while posting excise JVs and also if the payment of excise duty has to be done fortnightly.
    The fortnightly CENVAT payment utility picks up the credit side accounts from the transaction types of GRPO, EWPO, and TR6C for determining the CENVAT and PLA accounts. There is no separate transaction type for fortnightly payment.
    Example
    Excise TT DC ind Account name
    GRPO CR CENVAT clearing account
    GRPO CR RG 23 BED account
    GRPO DR CENVAT on hold account
    Specify G/L Accounts per Excise Transaction
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts.
    When you come to execute the various transactions, the system determines which G/L accounts to post to by looking at the:
    · Excise group
    · Company code
    · Chart of accounts
    Furthermore, if you want separate account determination settings within an excise group, you can also use sub transaction types.
    Requirements
    You have already:
    · Defined the G/L accounts
    · Defined the excise groups
    · Maintained the transaction accounts
    Activities
    For each excise group, assign the excise and CENVAT accounts to G/L accounts. For most businesses, one set of accounts will suffice for alltransactions.
    Note
    You need not remit the CENVAT to the excise department immediately, so maintain the credit account for transaction type DLFC as an excise duty interim account. This will be set off when you remit the duty.
    Define Processing Modes Per Transaction
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you specify which processing modes the user can use in the various Incoming Excise Invoice transactions.
    This way, you can tailor the transaction to what your users have to do.
    Standard settings
    The system comes with three standard transactions relating to the Incoming Excise Invoices function (those that are included in the role SAP_CIN). The processing modes available in these transactions are as follows:
    · J1IEX_C
    This transaction is for excise clerks: users of this transaction can only capture and display excise invoices.
    · J1IEX_P
    This transaction is for excise supervisors: they can change, display, cancel, and post excise invoices.
    · J1IEX
    In this transaction, users can capture and post excise invoices, as well as displaying, changing, and canceling them.
    Activities
    If the standard settings meet your requirements, do not do anything.
    Otherwise, you can adjust the standard settings or you can create your own transactions. To do so:
    1. In Maintain Transaction, create a new transaction by making a copy of one of the standard transactions. Give the new transaction a transaction code of your choice.
    2. In this activity, enter data as follows:
    o Tcode: The transaction code that you have just created.
    o Proc. mode: Specify what the users of the transaction will do with the excise invoices.
    o Active: Select this indicator to activate the setting.
    Example
    You might want to create a transaction that only allows users to display excise invoices.
    Define Reference Documents Per Transaction
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you specify for each combination of transaction and processing mode which reference documents you want the users to be able to use.
    Activities
    If the standard settings meet your requirements, you do not have to do anything.
    Otherwise, add the entries that you need to the table: For each transaction, make one entry per combination of processing mode and reference document. Activate each entry for it to work.
    Definition: excise invoice reference document
    Logistics - General (LO)
    A document, in India, that you refer to when you enter an incoming excise invoice.
    If you have already posted the goods receipt, you can use the goods receipt document as the reference document. Otherwise, you can use the purchase order (or another purchasing document, such as a be a contract or a scheduling agreement).
    Example
    In the SAP System, you create a purchase order for 100 bags of sand and send the order to your vendor. Two weeks later, the vendor delivers the sand, accompanied by an excise invoice.
    When you enter the excise invoice in the system, you specify the number of the original purchase order: this is the reference document.
    Return ->
    Definition: excise invoice reference document
    Maintain Rejection Codes
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you define the rejection codes that are used in the Incoming Excise Invoices transaction.
    Activities
    For each rejection code, enter a code and a description. You can also specify whether the excise duty in the invoice is to be posted to the CENVAT on hold account, instead of the CENVAT clearing account.
    Specify Which Movement Types Involve Excise InvoicesUse
    In this IMG activity, you specify which movement types relating to goods receipts involve excise invoices.
    The system uses this information during the goods receipt procedure. When you post a goods receipt using one of the moevement types that you have specified here, the system prompts you to enter the excise invoice number.
    Note
    This option cannot be used for processing goods receipts without purchase orders.
    Maintain Default Excise Groups and Series Groups
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you specify which excise group and series group you want to appear in these fields by default. You can make separate settings for different combinations of sales organization, distribution channel, division, and shipping point.
    Activities
    This activity is optional, unless you want the system to automatically create outgoing excise invoices when you create a customer invoice.
    In this case, you must also make the appropriate setting in Customizing for Excise Duty, by choosing Basic Subcontracting Attributes
    Use
    The subcontracting attributes help determine conditions for a combination of an excise group, a transaction type, and a subtransaction type.
    The conditions such as the number of excise items per subcontracting challan, if the nonexciseable materials have to be filtered or not when the subcontracting challan is created, the movement type groups for issues and receipts and the hierarchy of determining the excise base value are mentioned here.
    Requirements
    Before you continue with this activity, work through the following activities:
    · Materials Management -> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory -> Goods Issue / Transfer Postings -> Define Screen Layout.
    For the movement type 541, maintain the field Purchase Order as an optional entry or as a required entry.
    · Materials Management -> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory -> Output Determination ->Maintain OutputTypes.

    Definition: movement type
    Inventory Management (MM-IM)
    A classification key indicating the type of material movement (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, physical stock transfer).
    The movement type enables the system to find predefined posting rules determining how the accounts of the financial accounting system (stock and consumption accounts) are to be posted and how the stock fields in the material master record are to be updated.
    Return ->
    Definition: movement type
    Utilization Determination
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you specify which CENVAT accounts are to be debited by the Fortnight Utilization of CENVAT report: When the report calculates how much excise duty you must remit, it automatically proposes which CENVAT accounts the duty should be debited to. Here, you specify those defaults.
    You can either:
    · Debit all the excise duty to one account
    · Debit the excise duty to more than one account, in which case you specify which percentage is to be debited to each account
    Example
    If you want 50% of basic excise duty (BED) to be debited to the RG 23A account and the remaining 50% to the RG 23C account, you would make the following settings:
    Acct name BED perc.
    RG 23A BED account 50
    RG 23C BED account 50
    Alternatively, to debit all of the BED to the RG 23A account, and then RG 23C account, if there is not enough in the RG 23A account, you would make the following settings:
    Acct name BED perc. +
    RG 23A BED account X
    RG 23C BED account X
    When you come to run the report, the system takes the RG 23A account because it is the first one you have entered. If this account does not cover the BED, the system takes the RG 23C account instead.
    Maintain Minimum Balances for Excise Accounts
    Use
    In this IMG activity, you can maintain minimum balances in your excise accounts. When the balance in these accounts during utilization falls below this level, the system automatically utilizes funds in the PLA account.
    Activities
    Maintain the minimum balance amount for the excise accounts. If you have more than one excise group, you can maintain different minimum balances.
    Specify SAPscript Forms
    Use
    In this IMG activity, for each of your company codes, you specify which SAPscript forms the system prints the excise registers with.
    Standard settings
    Country Version India includes a number of sample SAPscript forms and printing programs, which you can use as follows:
    Reg. name Lay. no. Form Tcode/Prog
    RG 23A Part I 1 J_2IRG23A_PART1 J_2IRAP1
    RG 23C Part I 1 J_2IRG23C_PART1 J_2IRCP1
    RG 23A Part II 1 J_2IRG23A_PART2 J_2IRAP2
    RG 23C Part II 1 J_2IRG23C_PART2 J_2IRCP2

  • How to create material group in material master.

    hi guru's
    can anybody explain me how to create a new material group in material master.
    i wantto add a material group while creating material master MM01..
    thanks
    sap-mm

    Hi,
    In this step you create material groups.
    You also have the option of using the same transaction to carry out the following activities:
    Creating superior hierarchy levels
    Assigning the superior hierarchy levels to a material group hierarchy
    Assigning the base material group to the material group hierarchy
    Assigning characteristics profiles below material group level
    Requirements
    Your R/3 System is configured as an SAP Retail System.
    Activities
    1. Create superior hierarchy levels
       You create hierarchy levels using transaction WG01 (creating
       material groups) via menu options MG environment --> Hierarchy
       level --> Create
    2. Assign the superior hierarchy levels to a material group hierarchy
       You assign hierarchy levels to a hierarchy using transaction WG01
       (creating material groups) via menu options MG environment -->
       Hierarchy level --> Maint. MG hierarchy
    3. Create material groups (base material groups) and then maintain the
       pre-defined materials (reference material/material group material)
    4. Assign the base material group to the material group hierarchy
       You assign the material group to the hierarchy using transaction
       WG01 (creating material groups)
    5. Assign characteristics profiles below material group level
       You assign characteristics profiles using transaction WG01
       (creating material groups)
    Further notes
    When creating material groups and then maintaining the pre-defined materials (reference material/material group material) you should be aware of the following.
    As these materials can be created automatically using a minimum of data, you should follow this procedure with a check and possibly further maintenance, especially of plant-specific data. The material group reference material should be defined in as much detail as possible so as to keep the workload to a minimum when you have to create more materials for this material group.
    All hierarchy allocations involving a material group (base material group) and a higher or lower hierarchy level can be carried out on the initial screen (there is no need to switch to the detail screen). All further hierarchy allocations can be defined top-down when you maintain material group hierarchies.
    Only the material groups are transported automatically!
    Reward if useful.

    Account Group Controls the Master records. It controls the number range of Master record and Field status group (Supress, Required, Optional and Display) also. SAP follows a Grouping principle all throughout SAP to handle the Master Records that may be in GL, AR AP any thing. See to create a GL Account group you define at OBD4 there itself you assign the Number Range or those groups which also controls Field Staus of GL Master Records. And for Creating AR and AP Master Records you create at OBD2 and Vendor at OBD3 which will also controls Field Status Group of And Number range of Master record. The only difference between GL and AR/AP is assigning of number range. For GL will specify at OBD4 itself but for AR/AP we need to create a number range at FBN1 then assign to AR And AP at OBD2 and OBD3 respectively.
    One more thing. Remember only Field Status group of Master recard (OBD2, OBD3, OBD4) only contain Display option but not to Posting Key or Field Satus Group (OB41 or OBC4). I am so specifing becoz I commited this mistake in one interview.      
    In summary, the account group controls:
    i) The number ranges of the accounts,
    ii) The status of the fields in the company code segment of the master record.  Since a chart of accounts contains many different types of accounts, they can be bundled into different "account groups ". Usually one account group bundles 
    accounts with the same tasks within the general ledger, e. g. cash accounts, material accounts, asset accounts, profit and loss 
    accounts,...

  • Carrier Details on Field status group for vendor master

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to make the SCAC and Carrier freight group as required fields on vendor master .
    but the standard SAP system requires/ allows three fields : SCAC , carrier freight group and Service agent procedure group as mandatory to be activated under the 'carrier details ' column in the field status group (transaction OB23 and OBD3).
    I want to know if there is a way to flag just the SCAC and carrier freight group as required fields for entry in vendor master .
    Thanks
    Naga Yarramsetty

    Hi All,
    Thanks for your reply. With user exit and validation, I cannot create mandatory mark in FS00. Actually SAP make this description always mandatory. But there is no mandatory mark in this column. I just want to create mandatory mark in this column. Need you advice.
    Thanks,
    John

  • Difference in P.account groups and Payer

    what is the difference between Payer account groups and a payer?
    Plz explain.
    Thanks

    A Payer is the individual or company who settles the invoices foa a service or for delivered goods.
    Whereas the account group determines:
    Which screens and fields are necessary for entering master data
    Whether you can or must make an entry in these fields
    How master record numbers are assigned (externally by you or internally by the system) and the number range from which they are assigned
    Which partner functions are valid
    Whether the business partner is a one-time customer or one-time vendor.
    Reward if useful.
