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

Hi,
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.
Suppose the 2 company code is under diff sap system, then what kind of doc flow in each sap system for inter-company and cross-company sales process???
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

Inter company billing relevancy - Question

We have one order type (A) which we want to make it not relevant for inter company billing. The order type used to use the same delivery and intercompany billing type (ZIA) other order types (B, C...) which are relevant for inter company billing.
We have removed the inter company billing type from the order type (A) definition. And we have added a requirement in copy control to stop the inter company billing from this order type (A).
Now the inter company billing doc is not created any more due to the copy control requirement. But when I run billing due list, it still shows that the delivery for this order type(A) is relevant/due for inter company billing.
I guess the reason is that since order type A shares that same delivery and billing doc type with other order types, the copy control from the delivery and billing (inter company) still shows the flow from the delivery to the inter company billing type is valid, thus still trying to create the inter company billing. (Since I cannot remove the copy control from the delivery type to the inter company type)
So my questions are: Did I missing anything else to exclude this order type from inter company billing? Do I have to use a different set of delivery type to make the deliveru due list NOT to show that the deliveries for order type A are due for inter company billing?
Thanks.

Hi,
I think that the next notes suggest a solution:
Note 209934 - Reason f rejection ineffect w intercompany billing
Note 308989 - Consultant note for cross-company transactions (and related notes)
Note 338922 - Analysis note for cross-company transactions (delivery)
Note 502877 - Delivery without reference relevant for intercompany billing
Note 301254 - Creation of billing index
Note 386370 - Check report for the billing due list (billing index)
I hope this helps you,

Inter - Company Stock Transport Order Issue

MM SAP Gurus,
When I try working on "inter company stock transport order between two company codes."
I found the errors while creating PO(using document type UB)
ie.
*1st Error -Material 1 not maintained in Plant 2.
2nd Error - Customer 1 does not exist (please check entry in plant 1)
3rd Error - Not possible to determine shipping data for material1)*
i couldnt find out the error................................
Here is the configuration done by me......
Company codes:c1,c2
Plant for c1:p1
Plant for c2:p2
I m going to create and transfer stock from p2 to p1.
Here i m using stock transport order with billing(SD)
Purchase org for c1:porg1
Vendor for c1,porg1:v1
I assigned plant p2 in additional purchase data of vendor v1.
Sales area for c2:sorg2,ds2,d2
Customer for sales area(sorg1,ds1,d1):cust1
Now i go to mm->purchasing->purchase order->setup for stock transport order
> for receiving plant p1 i assign cust1,sales area(sorg1,ds1,d1)
> delivery type for supplying plant:NLCC
>checking rule RP.
i assigned doc.type UB into receiving plant p1 and supplying plant p2.
Then, in ME21N used doc type UB, these r the errors::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
*1st Error -Material 1 not maintained in Plant 2.
2nd Error - Customer 1 does not exist (please check entry in plant 1)
3rd Error - Not possible to determine shipping data for material1)*
I already maintained all this.
The doc type NB also I tried ,,,,,,,but same errors r being shown.
Also where to create the inter company a/cs for billing?
Please check the attached file for the error and let me know.
Thanks & Regards

Business partner
● Vendor master u2013 supplying plant
Create the vendor for the purchasing organization of the receiving plant.
Assign the vendor to the supplying plant in the vendor master record.
From the menu, choose Logistics ® Materials Management ® Purchasing ® Master Data ® Vendor ® Purchasing ® Change (Current). Go to the Purchasing View and choose Extras ® Additional Purchasing Data.
● Customer master u2013 receiving plant
Create a customer master record for the receiving plant. From this, both the address and the data that is relevant for shipping point determination, such as transportation zone and shipping condition are taken.
From the menu, choose Logistics ® Sales and Distribution ® Master Data ® Business Partner ® Customer ® Create.

http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/4d/2b90dc43ad11d189410000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
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.

Inter Company Credit Memo (Internal Credit Memo)

Hi,
I have searched the forum using: 'Inter Company Credit' ' Internal Credit Memo' and 'IG'.
Found some information but still do not have full picture.
We use an inter company process - similar to cross company selling - where company code A supplies company code B via an inter company PO. Company code A then bills company code B using the standard inter co billing type (IV), this has output RD04 set up which makes the posting via an idoc into the receiving company code's financials.
This all works very well.
Although we are now at the stage where we need to issue internal credits ie company code A credits company code B - for example goods did not arrive.
Seems that this is a real grey area - searched everywhere - internet, SAP, books etc. I have not found any comprehensive information ie full process and configuration required.
I have learnt that all inter-company billing must be in relation to a delivery - is this correct?
I have 2 scenarios:
1. Goods are returned back to the supplying company code, so therefore need to to raise an internal credit memo.
Can returns order RE be used for this, using company code's B internal customer number as the account number? RE is set up with the inter-company billing type IG, so this would bring the stock back on hand into company code A.
The credit would then be processed against the rtns delivery (LR) but how would billing know which billing type to use, in other words does billing know that we are trying to process an inter company transaction?
2. Goods are not returned - just wish to process a credit.
As a delivery document is required, we still need a delivery to be created in this process.
I have found SAP note 24756 which explains the set up of new order type, doc flow, item cat etc - I think this is all required so that the returns delivery used is just a dummy delivery therefore not relevant to warehouse / PGI. Is this set up still required?
Does anyone out there have any experience in this area? I think there is a real lack of knowledge in this area......I'm really struggling!!!!!
Incidentally we require the credit to be processed via idocs same as normal billing.
We are on 4.6C.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards
Guy

Unfortunately, I don't have enough experience with intercompany billing to consult you on these questions. Also I've never worked with a release older than 4.7.
You might want to read [SAP Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/dd/5614e7545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm] and request your manager to get a consultant specifically with the intercompany experience for a few days.
When posting on SDN, I'd recommend to ask only specific questions when you run into an issue (after you've done research and tried to resolve it yourself, of course). Large "blanket" posts rarely get any response here (and for a good reason).
I'm guessing that your sales org. error is because one of these prerequisites is missing:
- Permissible combinations of plant and sales organization must be defined
- Sales area data (sales organization, distribution channel, and division) must be assigned to each plant that participates in intercompany sales processing
This is mentioned in SAP Help (see link above).
Good luck!

Inter company STO-how to reduce the stock where no physical stock is kept in receiving plant

Dear All,
I am facing one issue. Suppose if there are two plants belongs to two company codes A & B.Plant A is in TN & Plant B is in AP (both belongs to two different states). Plant B is the place where no physical stock is kept, it is a place where JJ form & other documents are given to the vehicle to move it to other state. From there it ll move to end customer.
In plant A stock reduce-- inventory credit
                                    COGS----Debit
In plant B stock increase=---Inventory debit
                                         GR/IR--credit
Now my problem is in plant B no stock is kept, my client wants to reduce the inventory automatically without any manual entry (since no stock in plant B)
Can i use MB1A to reduce the stock automatically & what would be the actual entry for that. How to offset the other account which is getting debited against inventory?.
Regards
Subbu.

Hi,
   It seems to be a combined scenario of third party and inter company STO scenario, where you want to send the send the stock directly to your customer. Standard SAP doesnt support the third party scenario for a vendor assigned to the plant. The standard design is well explained in the note: 1918552 - Third Party Purchase in Cross Company STO: error 06769
   If you dont want to update the stock in the receiving plant, use a consumption account assignment category (like K) in the intercompany STO, so that the stock will be directly consumed. But one question - how do you map the goods issue to the customer and the outgoing excise invoice? Could you please share the details.

How to assign more than one inter-company customer?

Hi
I'm new to Inter-company sales process. Recently I configured and tested the inter-company sales process in the system and is working perfectly.
My Question: How can we assign more than one customer as inter-company customers to a sales organisation? In the standard process we are only able to assign one customer at a time as inter-company customer. Could you guide why this is?Does any one ever got such a requirement in project?
Regards
Sanjay

Dear Reazuddin,
This is my client requirement. (Detail Missing in the question:: 7 Companies, 4 sales organisations, 6 Plants/facilities.)( It is involved in a lot of intercomany transactions. It wants its customers from its sales territories to be able to place order from the sales org. under that territory.) I do not know why does SAP not allow us to assign more than one inter-company customer?

Issue in Inter Company postings

Hi All,
Currently I face an issue with inter-company posting transaction. Let me explain the issue.
Using FB01 we can create inter-company postings by giving G/l and New Company code fields in the first screen. Let us say there are two company codes 0020,0040.
Giving these company codes and their corresponding G/ls in FB01 system creates 2 documents, one in each company code i.e, one document in 0020 and another document 0040. There will also be a link in the field Cross-CC no which says this is an inter-company transaction.
Following are my questions.
1.Can I create the INTER-COMPANY Postings using BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST ? We can create accounting documents in both company codes 0020,0040 using this BAPI. But these two are becoming independent entries in each company code without any link ( Like the above case Cross_CC no) between them.
2.My another requirement is that I have to give an error message to user inside a user-exit while validating data. If I give message type E inside the user-exit it is giving the message but the normal flow is halted. It is going out with a blank screen with error message and the transaction is not going further. Is it possible to give error messages inside a user-exit without obstructing the normal flow of any transaction? The transaction can also be executed in Background.
Thanks for your help.
Vinod.

For question one I'm interested in doing the same thing.
Did you get an answer on how to do INTER-COMPANY postings using this BAPI?
BR and many thanks in advance.

New Post - GR not shown in inter-company return PO history

Hi Gurus,
Below is the process we performed for the return PO process
1. ME21N, create the STO with the return indicator ticked.
2. VL10B, create the delivery note for the STO created in step1.
3. MIGO, GR against the PO created in step 1. (Mov.Type 161, not 101)
4. VL02N, GR against the delivery note created in step2.
All the transaction are performed successfully with the correct data flow. When we look into the PO history tab, we can see the delivery note, the material document of the Mvttype 161, but our problem is that we can NOT see the material document of the goods receipt at the original supplying plant - this is different from the regular STO (not the return scenario) in the normal process, the delivery note, PGI, PGR can all be found in the PO history.
(Original Receiving Plant: where the PO was created,
Original Supplying Plant: where the goods is going to received into)
Much appreciate for any post.
LJ
Edited by: Jie Lin on Jul 27, 2010 11:22 AM

Original receiving plant: where the return PO was created.
Original supplying plant: where the goods are returned to.
we dont have problem with Mvt.type 161. We do want the PO with the return indicator ticked to support the inter-company return process. I was referring to the GR against the PO (not the delivery, my mistake in original post) at the original receiving plant- which links to the movement type 161.
The question we have now is that the GR against the DELIVERY at the ORIGINAL supplying plant is not shown in the PO history tab.

Inter company posting - Accounting entry

Hi,
I need some clarification on the logic behind the inter company accounting entry.
Issue is as below:
My client tries to post an inter company accounting entry between co.code:ABC &XYZ as below
40 100000a/c(dividend payable) ABC 1000 u2013 balance sheet a/c
50 200000A/C (Investment income) xyz 1000 - profit & loss a/c - cost center 10010 u2013 profit center 10010
100000a/c(dividend payable - is a balance sheet account
200000A/C (Investment income) - is created under profit and loss group
Our client is tried to post an intercompany as above. While posting of the above entry they got a message that profit center 10010 is not assigned to co.code ABC. But my client is asking, why I should enter either cost center or profit center details in balance sheet account.
Co.code: ABC was not assigned to profit center 10010.
If we try to enter either a cost center or profit center in the first line item related to gl account 980630, we are able to post the entry.
Can someone suggest me the logic behind this entry?
My client is working on ECC 5.00 with New GL
Thanks in advance
Prasad

Hi
The issue is with the Document spliting logic.
You client should have enabled the inheritance indicator in the New G/L configuration. So by the way of the configuration he would have done (Assigning the G/L for doc splitting & the relevant document types), when he is entering the CC/PC for the revenus line item of 1 company code the system will inherit that PC to the dividend payable G/L of the 2nd company code.
During the above step the system will check whether the PC is assigned to the 2nd Compnay code. During this check the system is throwing error as mentioned by you.
Answer to your clients question regarding why to enter the PC / CC for the balance sheet Item
For the balance sheet item there is no need to enter the cost center, but when it comes to profit center,(There should be a configuration, which makes the PC as mandatory - as part of the document splitting configuration, Based on this configuration the system will expect the PC in all the line item) based on the above mentioned configuration you have to enter the Profit center.
Hope this clarifies your question. If you need further info in finding the relevat config details kindly let me know.

Inter - company Billing - Assign Organisational units by plant

Hi Experts
Im posting this since I found the same question closed, unanswered.
We are on IS - Retail and I have done all configuration for Inter-company Billing. However when I create the inter-company billing document I get the following error, "Sales organization & is not defined"
I checked SAP note 308989 in which it says the delivering plant (Site) needs to be attached to both the Ordering and Delivering companies Sales organisation, Distribution channel combination. Also this needs to be done as part of master data in WB02, which I have done.
It also says that the 2 entries maintained should be present in the table in transaction OVV9 - Assign Organisational units by plant. However, in my case the attachment of the site to the ordering companies sales org. is missing in the inter-company set up. Also it does not give the option of creating a new entry.
Appreciate if someone could help me resolve this so I could create the inter company invoice.
Thank you,
Afzal

Hi Afzal,
in all the customizing setting of note 308989 are good, then those fields should be filled.
Please check it very carefully.
Please check in customizing of sales order type (transaction VOV8) if the intercompany billing type maintained.
In case of stock tranfer order intercompany (where there is not sales order), run transaction 0VLK, display the delivery type used, and check the order type present in field 'Default Ord.Ty.' (usually it is 'DL').
Then check in VOV8 for this sales order type.
If everything is fine, then it is necessary to debug the delivery creation.
The field LIKP-VKOIV etc. should be filled in program FV50XFLK_LIKP_FUELLEN_IV in intercompany sales; program FV50XFLK_LIKP_FUELLEN_IV_UML in stock transfer order intercompany.
Best regards,
Ivano.

Segment Reporting.... What happens to Inter Company Transactions

I have 2 simple questions, please help me if you know the answers:
1. Inter Company: When we report at Segment Level (ECC 6.0) how do we eliminate Intercompany sales for company codes belonging to same segment. Is there a standard program to do this.
2. Inter Segment: Are there any standard reports for Inter Segment.
Please do share you experiences with Inter Company and Inter Segment scenarios and reporting.
Thanks

The problem is you need to create COMPANY and assign the same to both company codes in OBY6.
The following information must be useful.
You can post the cross company code postings even between two controlling areas. The system does not prevent to post documents between two company codes in two controlling area. Need not necessarily they should be under one operating concern. Provided you have to make sure that you have followed the following points:
In OBY6 - To company codes must be assigned to same Company, meaning that you mus thave created a Company and that company must have been assigned to these two company codes.
OBYA - You should maintain the clearing accounts in both the company codes. Meaning that you are posting one leg in one company code and the other leg in the other company. Therefore, it is required to have the missing legs in each company code.
Company Code1 - Posting Key 40 - Clearing Account
Company Code1 - Posting Key 50 - Clearing Account
Company Code2 - Positng Key 40 - Clearing Account
Company Code2 - Posting Key 50 - Clearing Account
OB08 - In case if the two company codes have different local (company code) currencies, you may maintain the exchange rates.
You can now go to F-02 and post a cross company code transaction giving the first leg in first company code and the second leg in second company code. Missing leg in the first company code will be posted to the GL Account mentioned in OBYA and the missing leg in the second company code will be posted to the GL Account mentioned in OBYA. That means you will have four line items overall.
The system will post three document.
Document 1 in First Company Code
Document 2 in Second Company Code
and
Document3 - Cross Company Code Document.
The cross company code document consists of the first company code document number plus company code plus last two digits of the fiscal year.
Hope this must have clarified your doubts.
Please let me know in case if you need further details.
Thanks,
Ravi
