Inter-Company Matching

Dear Experts,
I want to know, WHat is the use of Inter Company Matching?
How is it different from Inter Co. Elimination?
Any Example where we can use inter Co Matching with its implecation.?
Thanks
Ritesh

Hi Ritesh,
The Inter-Company matching and reconciliation process provides the users with the ability to analyze reported Inter-Company balances in advance of actually running the consolidation and posting of inter-unit eliminations. The inter-company matching process support the identification, follow-up and potential resolution of Inter-Company out of balance situations prior to the actual posting of the inter-company eliminations. The result will be more accurate consolidated financial results.
Here is the link for the How to Set-Up Intercompany Matching -http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e081e99f-87b1-2b10-448a-a31b1c7a91e8
Hope this helps.

Three way match inter company Stock transfer orders

Hello All ,
     For Inter company Stock transfer orders our client for is planning to copy the net value from the billing document to Invoice receipt and Good receipt. Having that said , the PO price will be different from good receipt and invoice receipt. What will it be having the effect on Three way match.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the input . I have one more quick question
At my client PO condition Type is ZSTO and Billing Condition type is ZV01 , both value are maintained in table.
One process they want to check where ZSTO is not equal to ZV01 as per example below.
1 .P O Price based on ZSTO = 450
2. Good Issue (based on material standard   xyz)
3. Billing document based on ZV01 = 350
4. Invoice receipt ?
5. Good receipt ?
Can you please let me know what would be the IR Price and GR price and if the IR and GR value is 350 will it effect 3 way match .
Thanks in Advance

Intial upload of Stock in Transit Material with in plant / Inter company

Hi Friends,
How can we do Intial upload of Stock in Transit Material with in plant / Inter company.
In this case accounting entries has already completed while doing post goods issue (thru SD route) or in 1st step 301 mov. type.
Now the material is in transit. While we go to new system how can do this without hit of aacounting entries.
I tried 565, it Intial upload of stock to Blocked, so accounting entries took place.
Regards
Sai Krishna

Hi,
What I am proposing is:
At this juncture both plants accounting has been done in legacy.
Coming to new system whatever stock we upload that much value only updated in receiving plant. In reality there is difference between legacy & new system in this case. In legacy stock in transit value also added in receiving plant (since we did PGI). If we do stock upload with 565 mov. type .. intial entry to blocked stock i.e value of inventory is matching the legacy.
Actual receiveal of material do transfer posting from blocked stock to unresticted stock.
What is your opinion.
We won't upload the G/L inventory, it will come thru stock upload for kishore infor.

Inter-company Clearing Process

Inter-company sub-ledger is cleared manually using F-30 on our current process. The steps are as below:
There are 4 steps to the process
Step1. FBICS3 Select Document (SAP)
Step2. FBICA3 - Assign document automatically (SAP)
Step3. Spreadsheet for manual analysis (Outside SAP)
Step4. F-30 Transfer with Clearing (SAP Manual clearing)
Step 2 FBICA3 will assign and match the reconciliation items automatically but it does not cleared the items automatically. Therefore, further analysis has to be done and reconcile items will be manually cleared using F-30.
May I know is there a way to clear all the reconciliation items automatically during step 2 as FBICA3 has already assigned and matched the reconcile items? If this is not the case, what are the other options apart from F-30 and ABAP program?
Thank you.
Francis

IN the due course of buisness the companies has to either make a payment or make a Journal entry manually eliminating this.
If you have implemented consoldation these entries will automatically get eliminated at Group level.

Importing inter-company transaction data from SAP (BPC 7.5 NW)

Hello,
For our legal consolidation application, we would like to import inter-company data directly from SAP R/3 and match / eliminate the amounts at the transaction level (i.e., it would not be enough to import balances only from SAP).
Is there any guidance available on how to do that? All of the information that I have seen so far either assumes that the data is being loaded via a flat file or focuses on the import of data for the Finance / Consolidation application. The import of data for the Finance application is not relevant as that imports balances only, not transactions.
Thank you.

Hi,
To my understanding, concurrent locking only locks the intersection for the time the data is being sent to the database, which is not enough in this case.
We would need to have the lock utilized the whole time the user is inputting data for a specific dimension selection on the input schedule:
1. User selects values for dimensions
2. The input schedule is refreshed/expanded <-- LOCK ON
3. User inputs new figures etc.
4. User sends the data to database <-- LOCK OFF
The point is to prevent multiple users from working on the same set of data unintentionally.
Is this possible?

Credit memo for Inter-company billing

Hi
We are trying to create a credit memo with reference to an inter company billing document. The business requirement is to create a credit memo to adjust the invoice value due to wrong value posted in the original inter-company invoice. Hence we do not want to use the sales returns route for this.
So, we are trying to create a credit memo request (ZCR) in VA01 with reference to the Inter company billing document (ZIV). We have maintained the copy control between ZCR and ZIV.
However, when creating a credit memo request (ZCR) with respect to the intercompany billing document, we get the below error in the sales order.
"Item category ZNLC is not defined" and "Check Item copy" with Message No: V1324.
ZNLC is the item category that we used in the intercompany delivery document.
We are able to ignore this message in sales order screen and save the credit memo request in VA01 and also create credit memo (ZG2) in VF01.
Pl provide your inputs on whether we are missing any other configuration.
Regards,
John

Hi
I have maintained the item level copy control settings as below.
In the copy control (VTAF) between ZCR (Credit memo request) and ZIV (Inter company billing) at the item level for ZNLC (Inter company item category coming source document), the following setup has been maintained
Copying requirements : 303
Copy schedule lines : Blank
Pos / neg qty : Blank
Pricing type : D
Update doc flow : X
Do not copy batch : blank
Pl let me know if there are any other settings to be done in config.
Thanks,
John

Questions on Inter-company and Cross-company sales ordering process..

I understood the delivery plant and the sales org. is not in the same company code might be the process, but i want to know some details especially in SAP system how it is realized and processed, hope could kindly help me on below questions!! thanks!!
1)what is the difference between inter-company sales and Cross-company sales??
2)What is the general document flow and config. when in below 2 cases:
Suppose the 2 company code under same sap client system, then what kinds of company code,plant config within the system for inter-compan and cross-company, and finally what kind of document flow will it be in the system.

Thank you very much!!!!

Hi,
Basically there are totally Three types of scenarios
1. Intra Compnay Stock Transport Order
In this type of scenario, the stock is transfered between Two Plants which are under the same Compnay Code. The document type used here is UB. Here in this scenario the owner ship on the stock is not changed thats way there will not be any Invoice. The process as follows
a. Create Purchase Order with document type UB - ME21N
b. Create Replenishment Delivery with Document type NL - VL10B
c. Picking and PGI - VL02N
Now stock will be shown in Transit, you can check this using T.Code MB5T.
d. Do MIGO to receive the stock into ordering plant.
2. Inter Compnay Stock Transport Order
This is called as Cross Compnay STO. Here the stock is sent from one plant to another plant which are in two different Compnay codes. That means the Ownership on the stock is changed in this scenario, that way there will be Intercompnay Invoice IV is reaised. Here the stock is just moved to one plant to another plant but not to any customer.
The Process is as follows
a. Create a PO using type NB - ME21N
b. Create a Cross Compnay Replenishment delivery using type NLCC - VL10B
c. Picking and PGI in VL02N
d. Inter Compnay Invoice IV is raised by Supplying Compnay code to the Ordering Compnay Code - VF01
for this a customer created in Supplying Compnay who represents the Ordering Compnay and the invoice is raised against to that customer.
e. MIGO to receive the stock in Ordering Plant
f. MIRO to do invoice verification and do Vendor account update. This also can be done by EDI triggering, to update the Vendor Account. That means with this step, ordering compnay will update into its vendor account that he has to give certain amount to the compnay who supplied the stock.
3. Inter Compnay Customer Sales
This is similer to the 2 process, but here instead of sending to Plant we will send the stock directly to Customer of other compnay code.
The process is as follows
a. Customer raises normal sales order in another compnay code of type OR - VA01
b. But if the plant of that compnay does not have stock, then in the order the plant is changed to other compnay code plant.
c. Delivery is created in supplying Compnay against this Order - VL01
d. Picking and PGI is done - VL02N
e. But the stock is sent direclty to customer from supplying plant.
f. Ordering compnay will raise normal invoice F2 to the customer
g. Supplying Compnay will raise Intercompnay invoice IV to the Ordering Compnay.
But for all these process there are some configurations can be done, like
the material should be extended to both the plants
a customer is created in supplying plant who represents the ordering plant so that IV can be generated to that customer.
Supplying Plants should be linked to ordering Sales Org and Distribution channel. etc.
Hope this is clear.
Thanks

Plz check this link for tht information.
So, basing on this: I have customer 1 and vendor 1 for CC1......
--> Customer 1 is assigned to the receiving plant with sales area1 in setup STO configuration.
--> Vendor 1 is assigned to the supplying plant in the vendor master.
--> My question for u is:
1) In ME21N, in the vendor field u assign the vendor from CC1 or CC2 (Because it says the vendor - external supplier if u read in F1 in tht vendor filed)
Company code , Purc Org, plant all this will be from CC1 in ME21N, right?????????
Material exists in both the plants P1 and P2.......right?????
2) How to configure the inter - company accounts for the billing in sd for this STO scenario.???
Please clarify these things.....
You will be appreciated and rewarded too.

Error while creating inter-company invoice for stock transport

Hi ,
I am facing following errors while creating inter-company invoice for STO order.
We have scenario where standard PO is created in company code A & then replenishment delivery is created in company code B.While raising inter-company invoice to company code A, we are facing problem.
In replenishment delivery we have 10 line items. But when we try to do inter company invoice through VF01/VF04 we get following log
XXXXXXXXXX(delivery Number) 000000 Customer XXXXX: Customer master table KNVV is missing (VF-022)
XXXXXXXXXX (delivery Number)000010 The bill-to party could not be determined (VF-047)
XXXXXXXXXX (delivery Number)000010 The payer could not be determined (VF-048)
With this first line item from delivery is not flows to invoice & if we saves this invoice then it is get saved with account determination error as some of the data does not comes into invoice header like account assignment group for customer, Payment term, destination country,region, tax classification for customer etc. That means invoice gets created without first line item from delivery with account determination error & so,no accounting document gets generated.
I checked customer master for all SP,SH,BP,PY they are correctly maintained.This was working fine few months back, but not working now.
If anybody had come across such kind of scenario, your valuable inputs will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & kind regards,
Ganesh Palatshaha

Order related inter company credit memo - Order status 'Not Invoiced'

Hi,
We have recently created 'Order related inter company credit memo' process for return Stock Transport Orders(STO). For this, we used order related billing (billing relevance = C i.e. Relevant for ord.-related billing - status acc.to target qty) with standard item category 'G2N'. The issue is even after invoicing, sales order item status is 'Not Invoiced' and header status is 'Open', hence these orders are picked up multiple times during background invoice run and multiple invoices are being created.
How do we control the 'Completion' status in order related inter company billing? VBUP-FKSAA is not changed even after billing document creation and remains as A i.e. Not yet processed. Do i need to check VBUP-FKIVP since this is inter company billing.
I have also tried with TVAP-FKREL as 'B' i.e. Relevant for order-related billing - status according to order quantity but of no use.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ganesh

Check too the Note 308989 - Consultant note for cross-company transactions

The customer credit memo is created for the returns request and the
