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.

ICR Process 003 - FBICR3 - Display original FI document

Hello,
I am doing several test run of ICR Process 003 and I have found that, without any reason, sometimes functionality "display original FI document2 does not work when pushing the "button".
Am I doing something wrong? Is there any functional reason for this behaviour?
Thanks in advance

Hello Rafael,
There are a couple of notes available for this functionality:

ICR Process 3 - FBICA3 Reconciliation Assigning documents.

We want to match-up documents with the same assignment number field BSEG-ZUONR, I can find this field assignment in transaction code FBIC032, So I will make a change here, but I canu2019t find this field in transaction code FBRC005 > Process 003 > Rule definition. Any idea how would I assign the intercompany A/R , A/P with the same assignment number.

Hello Zameer,
In FBIC032 you specify the sender field for FBICRC00*A-REFNR. So if you transfer ZUONR for all companies (based on the settings in FBIC032), then your rule should be REFNR = REFNR.
You can also add other fields (e.g. if you have some ccode where they sometimes post the reference number in XREF1 or BKTXT) to the data model. Then these fields are simply transferred as additional fields and you could set up additional rules (e.g. REFNR = BKTXT or XREF1 = BKTXT).

ICR PROCESS 003 : FBICR3

Hi experts,
When I execute the document selection, even if I select two SL partner or more, the result is the same.
I don't understand why I have documents that are duplicated after execute selection and assignment transactions.
Is it a bug or bad selection or bad customizing.
Thanks a lot for your response
Best regards
Cédric

Hi,
To fill out my previous message, on the duplicated documents, it seems that one document was selected with the Reconciliation Account and other document with the customer or vendor account.
Why this strange selection is possible ?
Thanks a lot
Best regards

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.

ICR Process 003 - Reconcile Documents

Hi there,
I am in the process of configuring the ICR process in our system. After following the 'Intercompany Reconciliation Background Information & Customizing Guide' and implementing note 863630, FBICS3 and FBICA3 appear to be functioning as they should. When I execute FBICR3 there are no unassigned documents, which is what I am expecting. However the documents in the intercompany vendor and customer accounts are still open. Is this the expected result or is there another step or program that I need to follow in order to clear these? Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Dan Schnock

Hello Dan,
Please note that ICR is only an analysis tool. It extracts the information from the original systems and then helps you to find documents causing differences. It does not clear any open items. This is still part of the normal processes in the operative systems.
Assigning documents to each other simply means that you have identified them to be part of the same business transaction. This can help you find documents causing differences more quickly (e.g. two documents are assigned to each other; receivables posted in EUR, payables posted in USD => the payables document is not correct, reverse it and post a new one using EUR as transaction currency). Assigning them to each other does not trigger any kind of clearing mechanism (at least not within the standard functionality). You could implement the existing BADI methods to send information back to the operative systems and trigger a process there. But the standard does not contain anyhihng like that...
Best regards,
Ralph

ICR Process 2 - Parallel Recon by Trading Partner (TP) and TP Profit Center

Experts,
At my current implementation, I would like to reconcile accounts (Process 2) by trading partner, and also by trading partner profit center, essentially reconciling the same data for a period in two different ways. Instead of reconciling data the first way and then backing up the period, and reconciling the second in ICR; is it possible to run two different special reconciliation ledgers for Process two and use one to reconcile with a set of rules for trading partner and the second to reconcile with a set of rules for trading partner profit center? It appears I could create a reconciliation process 4 in the FBIC010 & FBRC7 and assign a secondary special ledger to it, but how would ICR know to look for the right recon ledger when you run FBICA2 and FBICR2?
Does anyone have experience and can chime in on this scenario?
Please Advise
Thanks!
John Scime

I needed to update the field movement in the reconcilation ledger.
The hierarchy with TP PC is showing up now but some documents are not appearing in the reconciliation display. I am going to delete the transactional data index tables and post fresh. I think that will solve the display issue as it has in the past.
I am using two sets one for all Intercompany Accoutns in the reconcilation ledger, and another for all profit centers. I am matching the sets against themselves for the object groups (ie compare all accounts against all accounts...all PC against all PC)
Is there anythign i should investigate Link[Take at the InterCo PC Recon Here|http://img717.imageshack.us/i/26681721.png/]

ICR Process 2, FBICR2, reconcilation screen not showing data records

Experts,
My reconciliation screen is not showing me any records for process 2. After posting 2 documents and running FBICA2 (Assignment Program), I can see the items be assigned. The records are also all available in auxially programs total records and list of documents. When I run FBICR2 (manual reconciliation) I get the following screen http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/8163/20395360.png
. Has anyone dealt with this issue? Why would the records be available at all steps except the last?

Ralph,
With the help of an ICR SME yesterday, I was able to get process two working! It was great, the two notes helped and we reconciled several test scenarios.
This morning, I was working on process 2 and used the auxilary program to delete the transactional data (not index tables), reactivated the data tables, posted two new documents, and now the reconciliation display is back to u201CNo Data Record Selectedu201D issue we solved this week. No configuration was changed since FBICR2 began working yesterday. I tried recalculating totals in the Aux. programs list but that didn't help either. FBICA2 is still working perfectly and when I look at the records in auxiliary programs they have been assigned a document group number, so I know they are reconciling. The issue is with the Display in FBICR2. What would trigger FBICR2 to revert back to this error? Are there any known issue with the stability of FBICR2, or known issues with using the delete transactional data program?
Please Advise.
Thanks,
John Scime

ICR proces 003: data reconciliation runtime

Dear all,
we are implementing SAP ICR process 003 for both customer/vendor open items and GL open items and have come across the following issue:
If a user runs tcode FBICR3 for a period in which no data exist (yet) in table FBICRC003A, tcode FBICR3 runs forever without producing any results.
When running FBICR3 for another period (with data existing in FBICRC003A) we get a result at least after a couple of minutes and everything is fine.
The issue only occurs in systems with a big amount of data in FBICRC003A.
Has anybody come across this issue so far? Is there any way to prevent this?
Thanks in advance for any help + best regards,
Claus

The reason was a basis issue (database statistics not updated), no ICR issue.

ICR - Process 002 - Business Area

Hi Ralph,
how can I reconcile for business area in ICR Process 002?
In the standard table (FBICRC002A), there is not present field Business Area.
Can yuo help me?
Thank you so much.
Best regards
Giampaolo

Hello Rafael,
Here is some information about the "Standard Setup" for ICR. Depending on your individual requirements you may have to vary these settings:
Field Movement
Create a new field movement using transaction GCF1.
Receiver Table FBICRC002T
Sender Table ACCHD
Receiver Field Sender Table     Sender field
DOCDT             ACCIT_GLX        BLDAT
GSBER             ACCIT_GLX        GSBER
RACCT             ACCIT_GLX        ALTKT
RASSC             ACCIT_GLX        VBUND
REFNR             ACCIT_GLX        XBLNR
Note that this will result in the field XBLNR not being changeable any more. This is SL standard behaviour because this means that if you changed XBLNR in the original document you would not get an update of your SL copy of the document. If you want to be able to change XBLNR in the FI document you could leave sender field for REFNR blank and implement an exit populating the field with XBLNR when the document is first posted.
Posting Indicator
I recommend setting this to 3. You will have to build up the initial set of data at some point using GCU1N. And you also want new postings to be transferred.
Check independent of posting
NO! You should not set this indicator. This is only relevant if you set posting indicator to 2 and you have implemented e.g. validations.
Write line items
YES!!! You need line items as the basis for your reconciliation.
Required posting
NO! You should not set this flag.
Best regards,
Ralph

ICR process for GL accounts.

Hi All,
Currently had completed the ICR process 003 for the open items, likewise we also need to do the reconciliation for the GL accounts.So kindly can you let me know the options for reconciling the GL account and the steps used if possible for the same to achieve it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Karthik

Hello Karthik,
FBICC can generate the ICR settings for process 002 as well. In addition to that you need to create a ledger where IC postings are collected in the sender system. There are several threads available which discuss the setup for this ledger and some information is also contained in the documentation attached to note 1164059 and the IMG documentation.

ICR Process 003- Adding new field BVORG

Hi,
I am hoping Ralph will see this post and grant some of his wisdom. I have searched this forum as well as OSS and can't seem to find a good answer to my issue.
I am in the process of implementing the ICR Process 003 in our development system. I have added field BVORG for the purposes of matching, but it remains blank in FBICRC003A. I have done the following:
1. FBIC006- Added BVORG with the Sender field BVORG
2. FBIC004- Reactivated the Transaction data tables and can see BVORG was added
3. FBRC008- Verified BVORG is added as a Subassignment
I even started from scratch before this by deleting all data in FBICRC003A and Ledger I3. I realize old data may not be populated, but after the above configuration and activation, the BVORG field in the line items table still remains blank on new postings.
Any thoughts on what I may have missed? I did find one OSS Note 1405114, but this seems to apply to Process 002 not 003. Is there a corresponding note for Process 003 or another solution?
thanks in advance
Nathan
Edited by: Nathan Crowther on Mar 9, 2012 5:54 PM

Hello John,
BVORG cannot be filled at the time of posting - just like the FI document number. This is why you cannot maintain this in the field movement.
This information is supplied by program FBICRC002_DOCNR_SELECT. The program is automatically executed in sender systems where data is picked up by data selection. If you post directly into your reconciliation ledger you need to execute the program yourself - a good time would be right before automatic assignment. If you have the corrections of note 1405114 applied to the program it will fill BVORG if the field exists in your ledger.
I do not understand why you would add that field to the totals table, though. This will result in a lot of additional entries in your totals table - one for each BVORG. You really should add this field to the line item table only!
Best regards,
Ralph

ICR Process 002: ledger selection

Dear experts,
We are running on ECC6 and trying to implement Intercompany reconciliation process 002. We already have successfully implemented process 001 and 003. All the data that need to be reconciled are in the same system and on the same client (ie all the company codes are running on SAP ECC6)
The problem is that everytime we launch the transaction FBICS2, no data is selected (or reselected), even though there are data to reconcile. Message: "No data selected according to the specified restrictions".
My question:
- what do I need to customize as sending ledger and receiving ledger ? Should it be the same ledger ?
- do i really need to create a SL ledger for this process ? If yes do i need to set up transfer operations ?
- what could be the cause of my problem ?
My customizing is as follows: in FBIC009, local company code activated, Data source is current process, Data transfer type is Asynchrnous via direct RFC, Sender field for reference and alternative sender field are blank.
Thanks in advance.
Steven

Hello Steven,
Sorry that it took me so long to answer...
Re #1 Yes, you have to run FBICA2 in order to have documents visible in FBICR2.
Re #2 GCU1N takes ledger selection into account. The program basically simulates posting of the document. So if a line is posted to your ledger during GCU1N it would also be posted when using FB01 etc.
Re #3 You can set up matrix reconciliation.
Add Segment and Partner Segment as fields with availability "Totals Items: Subassignment" (transaction FBIC006).
Then maintain the field catalog and choose role Secondary OrgUnit for Segment and Secondary Partner Unit for Partner Segment (transaction FBRC008).
Finally you have to choose option Use Primary and Secondary OrgUnits and Partner Units in Hierarchy Display in IMG activity Set Up Reconciliation Display (transaction FBRC003).
The hierarchy in FBICR* will look like this:
Company 1 - Segment A
   Partner 1 - Segment B
   Partner 2 - Segment A
   Partner 2 - Segment B
Company 1 - Segment B
   Partner 1 - Segment A
   Partner 2 - Segment A
   Partner 2 - Segment B

ICR Process 002: ledger selection - create a SP Ledger

Hello,
I am implementing ICR functionality in ECC 5.0.
I have implemented process '003' so far, and it is already working fine.
I have seen this question in SDN which is about exactly the same issue that I have:
[Re: ICR Process 002: ledger selection|Re: ICR Process 002: ledger selection]
I understand that I have to create a Ledger for process '002' as is said in the message above. The problem is:
- I have configured "Define Reconciliation Process Detail Attributes (FBIC010)" as following:
RC CoA SS SendLD Receiving LD
002 K4 PCGE Minimize number of RFC calls I2 I2
- When I try to create a "I2" ledger in 'GCL1' and I set summary table as "FBICRC002T" the system shows the following error message: " Table FBICRC002T is not allowed Message no. GG291"
Do you know what could be wrong?
Thanks in advance

Solved by the following information of Customizing's documentation
Before you can define any ledgers for ICR you have to make sure that global ledgers are active (transaction GCVO: IMG path Financial Accounting  Special Purpose Ledger  Basic Settings  Perform Preparation or Financial Accounting (new)  Special Purpose Ledger  Basic Settings  Perform Preparation).

Report Writer for ICR process (table group FBICRC002)

Hello Gurus,
I have implemented the new ICR process 002. It is working fine and I now want to create reports based on tables FBICRC002A & FBICRC002T.
When I try to create a library based on table FBICRC002T the system block me saying that "Table FBICRC002T is not installed in Report Writer" (message GR493).
Should I install the table group FBICRC002 to be able to use these data into report writer?
Do you know why this table group already exists and cannot be displayed?
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Pascal.
