hi
itegration is betwn FI MM SD and  PP
MM integration with SD
sales organization of a plant in a company creates sales order taking into account customer requirement of goods . sales order is then converted to purchase order in plant by the purchase organisation and it is send to vendor and vendor supplys goods. Payment is done to vendor with invoice created with respect to the purchase order as reference and goods are delivered to customer and billing is done with respect to sales order.
MM integration with FICO
MM is related to FICO in updating accounts during goods recipet,issue and goods transfer .
valuation class ,account grouping ,movement type etc . are linked to general ledger accounts of FI for account posting in a company through automatic account determination. Accounting document generated after goods reciept "MIGO" transaction gives the FICO information like accounts updated like stock or consumption account etc...once invoice verification is done in MM then payment is done in FICO considering invoice as reference for paying vendor.
The main integration between FI-MM is
1) Valuation & Account determination
main transactions are OMWB/OBYC
Material price change -- MR21
2) Purchasing -- Account assigned PO's & PR's
Tax code integration with pricing schema
3) CIN activities
J1IT India localization
for PP with others
1.With FI Module - Through Valuation Class which allows to post the material's of same material type to
different G/L Account or Which allows to post the material's of different material type to same G/L Account.
or when some confirmations are made Accounting entries are made.
2.With CO Module - Activity types are created and Activity type are linked to the cost centers in KP26 for
defining the activity rate on hour basis,so for this combination entered cost center and activity type will be
mentioned in the work center to capture the operation or routing cost.
3.With SD Module,it happens thorugh the availability concept and Requirement Class in the Planning
strategies.
4.With MM Module it happens through the various movement types & material document posting.
5.With QM,say if a particular inspection type is made active ,then the material's stock goes to Quality
inspection stock and once cleared from Usage Decision,they go the respective stock's.
For Eg: if inspection type 04 is active - Inspection lot for a goods receipt from production which means after
production confirmation the posted stock goes into Quality inspection stock and once cleared goes to
unrestricted stock.
Likewise many integrations are there which can be used as per the business requirement.
