ICR: FBICS1

Hi Ralph
I've made the analysis and what I'v found was that only one position of the document had the "X" on the field "OI management (XOPVW)". And the partner field was empty as the Partner information has just been added in August 2008 and the document is from January 08.
Any other idea why the process doesn't find the document?
Kind regards,
Isabelle
Hello Isabelle,
The quickest way to figure out whether ICR can find the document at all:
o Check that the company code is assigned to the correct company (OX16).
o Go to SE16N.
o Specify table BSIS.
o Specify the following selections:
Company Code      <company code assigned to company ID>
Fiscal Year       <whatever year the document was posted for>
Document Number   <specify document number>
o Choose function Execute (F8)
o Double-click on the line that you are expecting to have selected.
Make sure that the following is true:
1. The posting date is less or equal the key date derived from year and period specified on the selection screen.
2. Field OI management (XOPVW) = 'X'.
3. Field Trading Partner (VBUND) > SPACE.
If all of this is true then FBICS1 should find the document. If the document was originally posted without a partner then it will still be found if you assigned a partner in the account master in the meantime. The newly assigned partner will be transferred to ICR.
Best regards,
Ralph
P.S.: If there are more questions regarding process 001 please start a new thread. By now this one is a bit confusing to read Just prefix the Subject with ICR: FBICS1: and send me the link after posting your question...

Hi Ralph
I have opened another thread regarding process 002 (named "IC Reconciliation - questions regarding process 002").
Regarding process 001 the problem seems to be that one account booked with the corresponding document is not OP-geführt, whether the other one is. I've made another example with another account and there the data selection worked (however very very slowly!!). Is it normal that the data selections takes >10min for 1 account?
Kind regards,
Isabelle

ICR-Intercompany Reconciliations - Use of Sets

Hi ALL
We are in the process of implemeting the ICR process and have chosen to go with the Process 003 with Customer and Vendor Open items but at the same time have chosen to include GL Open items from Process 001.
Our client requires that only certain GL accounts be picked up for the ICR process.
So I went and changed the Set ID 1000 which included all accounts from 000000000 - ZZZZZZZZZ and added just the accounts that we needed. Is that good enough?
Do I have to change the sets 2000 for Customers and 3000 for Vendors?
And after those changes do I have to run the select documents FBICS1 and FBICA1 again or does that only impact FBICR3?
And does anything need to be done to the Object Group and Subgroups - Trn FBRC009.
Any help in the matter will be greatly appreciated
Regards
Satpal
Edited by: Satpal Narang on Oct 21, 2009 10:22 PM

Hello Satpal,
There are 2 ways of limiting the GL accounts to be reconciled in process 003. The first (and in my opinion more efficient) way is to implement BADI method RESTRICT_SELECTION and implement a logic for restricting the account numbers there (e.g. based on a custom table for maintaining accounts to be selected). That way runtime of data seleciton can be reduced since open items you are not interested in are excluded from selection. You can use the example implementation in CL_IM_FB_ICRC_001.
The second way is to do what you have set up to exclude certain GL accounts from your object groups. However, in that case you will probably end up seeing them in the object group "Data records not contained in any object groups" - unless you specify the object groups to be processed on your selection screen. The downside to this solution is that you use the unwanted open items during data selection and automatic assignment - therefore increasing runtime and data volume. The good thing about it is that you do not need to bother with a BADI implementation.
Either solution will work. You will have to decide which one is better for you...

ICR: FBICS3 selects cleared documents and old documents

Hi, I have just gone live with ICR functionality (processes 002 & 003) and I have notice that FBICS3 transaction is not working as I expected:
1/ "Old documents": If I set in the program FBICS3 "year = 2010" & "month = 01"" I expected that the program would select document posted on period 1 year 2010. The reality is that the program has selected data from 2007 to now. I am surprised but probably the problem is that I did not understand how FBICS3 select data. I assume It is correct and was my error. Since fiscal year and period are used to determine the key date of open items (open items "opened" at mm yyyy).
2/But my real problem is that FBICS3 has selected cleared items and shows them on FBICA3 which I am sure is not correct.
Does any body know if there is a SAP note that applies on this issue?
Thanks a lot

In order to give more information:
I have already implemented following SAP Notes
1159776     ICR: Select data from newGL     FI-GL-GL-G
1235689     ICR: Runtime error TSV_TNEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED     FI-GL-GL-G

ICR process 03 with GL open items and

Hi gurus
do you have any idea about ICR with process 03 with GL open items and GL account reconciliation.
thanks in advance
best regards

Hello Lucio,
I am afraid you will have to be a little more specific in your question
It is possible to reconcile GL open items using process 003. In FBIC032 you need to specify data source Documents of Other Process. If you want to only read GL open items for a specific company then you create only 1 entry in FBIC032 for this company and specify data source Documents of Other Process. If you want to read both AR/AP open items and GL open items you have to create 2 entries for this company with different SEQNRs. For one you have to specify data source Documents of Current Process, for the other you have to specify data source Documents of Other Process.
I hope this helps,
Ralph

How to extract non-sap data (A/R Invoices from Legacy system) into SAP ICR

Hi
We are trying to bring A/R invoices from a legacy system into SAP ICR special ledger so that ICR tool can be used these items for intercompany reconcilliation. Could you please let's know the way to load these legacy AR invoice items into ICR data base using any function moduels.
Regards,
Eswar.

Hello Eswar,
In what form do you have these "external" open items? If they are contained in a file you should simply import the file in ICR during data selection using the File Upload functionality. There is no need to store them in a special purpose ledger first. Actually you would have to create a BADI implementation to extract the data from that special purpose ledger during data selection. Please consider using File Upload standard functionality.
If for some reason this cannot be used you could implement a logic calling RFC enabled function module FB_ICRC_ADD_DATA_RFC which will take the open items you are supplying in your logic and push them into the ICR database. This strategy could be used to include these external open items without them being processed during data selection.
Best regards,
Ralph

Questions on ICR reconciliation process 002 (behaviour 2)

Dear all,
I am implementing ICR reconciliation process 002   and I have some questions regarding process's behaviour and functionality. I have set u201CDefine Rules for Document Assignments" as following:

10     RTCUR     Transaction currency     = Equal     RTCUR     Transaction currency
20     TSL     Transaction Currency     -1 Opposite Amount (Only for Value Fields)     TSL     Transaction Currency
3/ If I am reconciliating company A with partner B in FBICR2, when I assign manually items and reconcile all accounts for this Company A/Partner B I expected that status for Company B and Parther A would be updated but transaction do not seems to work as I expected. Is this the correct behaviour or am I doing something wrong?

4/I need to reconcile accounts (process 002) not only for GL accounts w/o
open items but also Open Items GL accounts and vendor and customer GL
accounts (reconciliation accounts).
I do not need to manage open items nor vendor customer items (which would
be supported with processes 001 and 003); I just need to reconcile these
accounts as if they were GL accounts. I have tested in my test client and
seems to work. Is it possible?
Cheers

Hello Rafael,
The advantage of using process 001 or 003 is that you get a clear overview of the unpaid receivables and payables taking key date information into account. This is why the recommended procedure for dealing with payables and receivables is to use process 001 or process 003. You basically have a different angle when analyzing open items...
Having said all this it is possible to include any type of account in process 002. All you need to do is to not be quite as restrictive in your ledger selections. Then other line items will be posted to your ledger and can be analyzed within process 002. If this is what you need then go ahead and do it. Just make sure that you are sure your customer does not want to analyze receivables and payables on a different level...
Hope this helps,
Ralph

Ralph thanks for your answer that was very helpful.
I reviewed table FBICRC002T and as you said, there were lines with RTYPE = 1 and TSL NE 0; but they were wrong, I mean not "real" since the amounts (totals amounts) were bigger than the sum of the individual line items documents involved in FBICRC002A.
Then I run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' and totals were recalculated and then I run FBICA2 and all lines in FBICRC002T with TSL NE 0 had RTYPE = 2 so gropus appear as "green" in FBICR2 now.
I think that I understand now how program derive group's status.
Then I did the following steps:
- I went to FBICR2 and unassign all items in "green" groups.
- FBICRC002A was updated with status 1 but FBICRC002T remains with status 2
- Then I logoff transaction FBICR2 and login transaction FBICR2 again. Since table FBICRC002T did not change (remains with status 2) groups appear "green" again although items were not assigned in FBICRC002A.
- Then I run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' again FBICRC002T was updated now with status 1
- After doing that, I log in transaction FBICR2 again and groups appear "yellow" as expected.
- Then I manually assign in FBICR2 all items so they changed to status "2" in FBICRC002A but FBICRC002T remains with status "1". Groups remains as "yellow" since FBICRC002T is not updated yet.
- Once again, If I run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' table FBICRC002T is updated with status "2" and groups are "green" in FBICR2.
If you are still keeping reading this thanks you. I think all of this sounds a bit tricky but my question is: how and when is table FBICRC002T updated? Is necessary to run 'FBICRC002_DATA_TCAL' after any manual change (assign or unassing) at FBICR2? Is this regular behaviour? Sound a bit strange by the way, I think I am doing something wrong or have misunderstood somethingu2026
Thanks a lot in advance for your help and patience.

ICR Process 3 - FBICR3 Reconciliation Display

After upgrade to ECC 6.0 reconcillation process is not working as it should. We upgraded from 4.6 to 6.0 and didnot turned on New GL functionality. We applied all the necessary notes 863630, 1062292, 1164059, 1172591, 1180060 and now we are able to execute all the necessary transactions for reconcillation such as FBICS3, FBICA3, and FBICR3. But after executing FBICR3 we are only seeing one company code information. e.g there are three company codes and so CC1, CC2, CC3, and we have three companies C1, C2, C3 and we have vendor and customer set up for each combination. After executing the final step of ICR I only see CC1 information and not others. In other words if CC1 is equal to C1, I m only seeing C1 documents. I m unable to reconcile documents manually.
I m able to see company information but not the partner.

Ralph,
No I havent used RFICRC00 before. We are on ECC 6.0 Release 600 , Level 0013. After some more digging from my side I start looking at each transaction to see where is the problem. When I select data for companies in Transaction Code FBICS3, I was only getting data for 1 company. If I enter any other company then I will get "0" results. I went into T-Code FBIC010, even without changing anything I m getting an error " Ledger OL is not a valid sender Ledger" "You have specified ledger 0L as sender ledger for process 003. For process 003 the sender ledger must use totals table FBICRC003T. Ledger 0L uses totals table FAGLFLEXT". I think this came out of Note 1172591, and I believe we can get rid of this error by implementing these 2 notes: ( 1). 0001159776 ICR: Select data from newGL, (2). 0001161993 ICR: Customizing Checks.
If this is the problem, and if we implement note 1159776, can we still use totals from table FBICRC003T instead of FAGLFLEXT by entering I3 in a sending ledger. (New GL is not activated and table FAGLFLEXT is empty) Or the problem I m having with TCode FBICS3 is tottaly something else.
Thanks for your help.

Hello Rafael,
Apparently you did not generate the customizing using FBICC. If you have not invested much effort in customizing settings I suggest that you implement note 1172591 and generate the customizing via transaction FBICC. After you run this and make sure that the transaction data tables are activated the programs should run (provided the customizing for the companies in FBIC032 is correct). Please go through the generated customizing settings and make sure that everything looks OK...
I also recommend implenting note 1161993. Whether you run FBICC or not it will help when going through the customizing settings. The most likely cause for the error messages is that there are some incorrect settings in your field catalog and due to this also in the display hierarchy setup.
I hope this helps you in your efforts,
Ralph

ICR Process 003 Month-End Cut-off

We have implemented ICR process 003 in the 5.0 system. It seems that "posting period" relates to the period that the document was posted in ICR not necessarily to the customer account. How can we get a good month-end cut-off when new documents are posted all the time. For instance, when we run FBICS3, FBICA3, and FBICR3 after the new period begins, it will pull in documents created in the new period and all still open before in previous periods.

Hello Staci,
The period and year you enter on the selection screen is combined with the fiscal year variant maintained in your process customizing to derive a key date for open item selection. The open items are then selected in the sender system and stored in the year and period specified on the selection screen in the ICR database. This is also explained in the first message that is displayed in the log of data selection.
Best regards,
Ralph

ICR Process 003 - question about data selection (table FBICRC003A)

Hello, I am implementing ICR process 003. We are doing several test and we I have some questions that I hope you can help me:
1 - If I run transaction FBICS3 - Customer/Vendor( Select Documents) and then FBICA3 - Customer/Vendor (Document Assignment ) several times (the same selection criteria) will the same documents be selected redundantly and will be stored redundantly in table FBICRC003A? I expected that this will not happen but It seems to happen in my test environment. (?)
2- If I need to delete the data stored in ICR '003' functionality I need to use transaction GCDE. The problem as I am using ledger '0L' for '003' process I cannot "delete data of one ledger" functionality -that allows to set selection data- and I have to "delete the data of an entire data group" that deletes all data stored in FBICRC003A & FBICRC003T tables. Should I set another ledger for '003' process in order to delete data using selection criteria? Is it recommended to not to use '0L' and create a new one?
I have read in reference documentation that "is not necessary to set up a SL", but since all my productive companies are running in the same client that is the ICR cliente I am wondering if could be better to create and set a SL.
Thanks in advance

Hi Ralph,
we have created a RFC in order to get data from client B to client A (where ICR system is placed). The summary is:
I need to import vendors/customer data from Client B that belongs to a certain company code "0001". The company is called "X" in both clients A & B although it only exists as a company code (FI) in Client B and just as a company (and trading partner) in client A.
Client A:
1- have set company "0001" as a "Company to be reconciled" at FBIC032:
RFC destination = ""
RFC destination for data selection = "ZRFC0001"
Local company= ""
Data Source="Documents of Current Process"
Separate Selection Process= "X"
Data Transfer Type="Asynchronous via Direct RFC Connection"
Sender field for reference number = "XBLNR"
Client B:
1- I have created the companies (V_T880) that I will need in order to inform trading partner on vendor's master data.
2- I have assigned company code '0001' to company "X"
3- I have assigned trading partners created on step 1 to vendors
4- I have post few FI documents with trading partners informed.
Then I run FBICS3 - Customer/Vendor: Select Documents in background but the programs takes a lot of time and do not select any document.
Do you think that I am missing something?
Thanks very much in advance.
