Intercompany case

At our case we have two company codes (Company Code A and Company Code B). Both have domestic and export sales organizations. The owners of the two company codes is the same. In fact, Company Code A is usually the one which manufactures the products, Company Code B is usually the one which exports. Company Code B gets the customer orders and Company Code A gets the orders from Company Code B. As a result Company Code A sells the products to Company Code B and Company Code B sells the products to the customers. There should be something such as items of the Company Code B's customers' orders should be requirements for Co0mpany Code A or when Company Code B creates purchasing order Company Code B just makes goods movement (not entering a customer order at its company code). What and how should we do? I'll be happy for the brief explanations...
Also how is intercompany sales carried out and which customizations should I do for the intercompany process? Can anybody explain step by step?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Yasar,
As of my opinion your problem will be resolved by using intercompany standard functionality.
In Intercompany procedure company code B receives order from customer.
1. Company B creates sales order using transaction VA01.
2. Checks Item Availability in Plant B.
3. Change plant manually to Plant A.
4. It automatically checks item availability in plant A and if item is not there requirement will be passed to production planning.
5. Save the Order and create delivery on availability of item.
6. Shipping point is Plant A.
7. Company Code A will bill to Company Code B.
8 Company code B will raise bill to end customer.
Configuration for Intercompany
1. Billing Type IV is maintained. It is available in SAP. - Assigned this billing type to Sales order type in T-code VOV8 or IMG- SD- Billing-Intercompany billing-Define order types for Intercompany billing
2. Material has to be created in both plants(Plant of ordering company and plant of delivering company)- MM01
3. Plant of company code B to be assigned to Sales organization of company code A- T-code -OVX6 or IMG- SD- Billing-Intercompany billing-Assign organizational units to plants
4. Define Internal customer number by sales organization- It means that in supplying sales organization/company master data records ordering company has to be created as Internal customer in T-code XD01.
5.Assign Internal customer no IMG- SD- Billing-Intercompany billing-define internal customer no by sales organization to order company code/sales organization.
6. Pricing - in this case we have to have two pricing procedure - RVAA01 and ICAA01- Tcode- VOK0
RVAA01- is assigned to order sales org/dist/div/doc.type and customer.It is normal pricing procedure; as per business requirement of the order company for the customer.
ICAA01- Pricing procedure is assigned to supplying sales org/dist/div/doc type and order company code customer. Conditions PI01 or PI02 are maintained in RVAA01. Since it is intercompany business process PIO1 or PIO2 represent cost of the material and statistical only.
PIO1 and PIO2 represents IVO1 and IVO2(in ICAAO1) respectively. Condition record for PIO1 or PIO2 have to be created in VK11.
It is assumed that standard SD configuration is in place.
Revert for further clarification.

Issue with Intra and InterCompany STOu2019s

I have a issue with Intra and InterCompany STOu2019s
I have a Intercompany STO, which Delivery and PGI is not done.
When I tried to post the GR against STO then GR is posted without any problem.
Now If I tried to do the same with IntraCompany STO i.e. tried to post the GR which delivery and PGI is not done.
Then it gives error messamge as u201CDocument does not contain any selectable itemsu201D
Can anybody suggest me about the above discrepancy between Intercompany and InteraCompany cases.

Thanks a lot Jürgen,
So As I understand, This is SAP Standard as.
1. In the IntraCompany case: GR can not be posted without posted Delivery and PGI.
2.In the InterCompany Case: GR can be posted wrt. PO, while Delivery is not posted.
Pls. confirm the above and if you have any idea for controlling the above intercompany case,
pls. let me know?
Thanks in advance...........

STO Intracompany in one step

Hi all, I've searched the forum for this specific answer and I havent found it. My problem is NOT about shipping data determination in the PO
At this point we run 1 step Stock transfers between plants in different company codes. Movement type used is 645 - all works great.
We are trying to implement the same concept between plants on the same company code, but without any success so far. Can this be achieved? Which movement type should be used? Any particular config needs to be considered? We are trying to use 645 with the same item category as in the intercompany case, but we are getting a "deficit in stock in transit at destination plant" error.
Thanks!!

Thanks for the replys. I did check the schedule line and redirected the item category so that it picked up that one. Still no luck (647 determined). I went into a sandbox and created the whole thing from scratch:
1) Copy UB into new PO type
2) Configure stock transfer (assign delivery type, checking rule, source plant). Set 1 step transfer check
3) Created STO and determined shipping tab. Created delivery and picked 647.
When posting GI for the delivery, I get "in transit deficit at destination plant". My understanding is that it's trying to post GI without success and it continues into the 101 only to find that there is no in transit stock.
Any ideas?

Removal of stock in transit in case of Intercompany STO

Hi Gurus,
Problem : User was not able to set the delivery completion flag in the Intercompany STO because the goods issue qty is greater than that of goods receipt qty at the receiving plant. For that solution is given in the SAP note 167795.
I am yet to implement the note but wanted to know how to clear the stock in transit (after setting the del. completion flag in PO) in case of IC STO, because it is considered as virtual stock in transit.

Hi Sandip,
the stock in transit for CC STOs is virutal as you said. It's always calculated from the GI and GR quantities. The actual formula is EKET-WAMNG - EKET-WEMNG. Until the GR and GI quantities ain't the same, it won't be cleared. You may want to have a look at SAP note 100690, too.
Cheers,
Attila

Excise Returns in case of intercompany

scenario in which goods are delivered from a factory plant and the delivery results in an inter company invoice (IV) ánd an normal customer invoice, so TWO company codes are involved.
We register the order in CoCd IN01; delivery will be done from a plant belonging to CoCd IN02; Goods Issue in IN02 results in an intercompany invoice (IV) AND an excise invoice in IN02 last document is the customer invoice created in IN01. When returning goods we create returns order in IN01; delivery in IN02, where we receive goods and then trigger IC credit billing document (IG) and we want to trigger the excise document (credit). The question now is how to create that credit, and to which document should we refer to when creating that excise correction (the original excise doc; the credit IC billing doc..?)

Intercompany invoice not getting created in third party processing

Dear Gurus !
I am facing a problem in creating the intercompany invoice in case of third party order processing.
In our organisation , for any type of sale two billing documents are creared :
1) Commercial Invoice under the co. code for which sales org. is maintained at the sales order bookin level .
2) Intercompany Invoice under the co. code in which plant is maintained which is used at the sales order level as delivering plant.
So, as per the configuration req. for third party processing , i have created Sales order ( with automatic Purchase requistion generated ) , Purchase order creation with reference to the Purchase requisition , goods reciept ( MIGO ) and invoice reciept ( MIRO ) , then billing doc. or commercial invoice ( VF01 ) with the generation of accounting document and finally the intercompany invoice ( VF01 ) .
But i am facing the problem in final stage , that is , intercompany invoice creation .
Error Message : No open billing quantity has been determined .
I have checked the copy control for sales order to intercompany invoice and still not able to resolve it .
Please reply which setting needs to be done for this .
Awaiting your response , that what copy control settings is required .
Thanks .....

Hi Buddi / Mahesh / Kiran ,
It ' s good to see all of your opinion . But my problem has not been resolved .
I am implementing third party processing in my organisation , where the customer is an export customer ( outside India ) . Hence , this is a merchant export .
All the configurations / Customisations have been done for this process .
The process is running fine till commercial invoice , but the problem is in intercompany billing doc. creation.
I am again repeating - Error message : No open billing quantity has been determined.
Explanation of the process :
1) The order has been booked with item category TAS alongwith the item cat. group as BANS for the material used in the order .
2) The sales area is 1020 / 30 / 35 . Here , 1020 is sales org . under company code 0079 , 30 is export's distribution channel and 35 is the division for components .
3) The delivering plant used in the sales order is 1009 which is under co. code 0077. The price / condition record maintained for this material is in USD / EUR as it is a case of merchant export .
4) The purchase requisition is generated automatically when the order is saved . It can be seen at VA02 - > Item details - > Schedule Lines .
5) With the help of this PR no. , i have created a purchase order for vendor which is maintained under co. code 0077 asking for material in plant 1009 which we need to export / supply to the customer.
6) The value of material per piece in the P.O. is coming from the material master record -> Accounting 1 view - > Moving av. Price .
7) Now, the Purchase order is saved . With the help of this P.O. no. , goods reciept ( MIGO )is done .
8) After MIGO , Invoice reciept or MIRO is done under company code 0077.
9) After MIRO , customer ' s invoice is created through VF01 .
Remember : This is an order relevant billing , no delivery or PGI will happen here because the material is not coming into the plant 1009 .
10)The billing document ( order - related billing doc.) is created and the accounting document is also created under co. code 0079 in USD .
Till this stage , everything is running successfully as per business requirement , but i am facing the problem in the final stage , that is creation of intercompany invoice under co. code 0077 which is in INR .
In all other sales document types used in our industry , the process is same , that is : a) Sales order creation b) Delivery and PGI c) Billing doc. creation with accounting doc. under co. code 0079 and finally d) Intercompany invoice with accounting doc. under co. code 0077 and excise invoice creation with reference to intercompany invoice.
In the above, problem is not there becuase orde is delivery relevant , hence copy control is maintained for interco. billing to delivery type.
But in the new process , that is , third party processing , sales order relevant billing is done . so i suppose there will be a copy control for intercompany billing and sales doc. type , but i am not able to resolve it .
Hence , please understand the process before suggesting .
Thanks and awaits reply........

Transfer of Intercompany sales orders using LSMW

Hi
I have to Transfer the open intercompany sales orders using LSMW. Consider a scenario where customer places an order on sales org A with plant A. sales org A raises purchase order on Sales org B with plant B. The material moves from Plant B ie supplying plant to delivering plant A. THen it is delivered to custome from plant A. Can u please tell me whether i have to pass the suppying plant or it will be determined automatically. Similarly what about the purchase requisition no. Is it created automatically.
Thanks
regards
Tushar

Hi,
The purchase requisition is going to automatically created incase of a intercompany order (ie nothing but the third party order). In this case of orders the line item category in the sales order would be TAS. The intercompany sales order nothing different from a normal order during the creation of the order, after that the operations will be different from the normal standard order. You can use the same LSMW which you have used for transfering normal standard orders.
The configs are going to be different in the system for intercompany sales orders compared to the standard sales orders. That is the problem of the functional consultant to take care.
Thanks,
Mahesh.

ABT1N Intercompany Asset Transfer error: AA390   T type 230 not possible

Dear experts,
I am trying to post an intercompany asset transfer with trx code ABT1N but when simulating the error code
Transaction type 230 not possible (posting to affiliated company) appears. This is the explanation of the error:
Message no. AA390
Diagnosis
     For the current document, you specified either implicitly (via the
     customer/vendor), or explicitly (with a manual entry), that this posting
     is to an affiliated company. In this case, Asset Accounting requires you
     to use special transaction types. This enables the system to separately
     identify such transactions.
I do not understand the error because TType is "Retirement to affiliated company with revenue" so should be correct.
Does anybody know what could be wrong?
Cheers

Hi
Firstly, check out Note 209643.
Secondly, please read the long text of the error message again. The
transaction type must be set as "post to affiliated company". And
you must check back the followings :-
1. Please execcute function: SAP IMG -> FI -> asset accounting ->
    transaction -> specify default transaction type.
    You can find the default transaction type for "retirement from
    inter-company transfer" and "acquisition from inter-company
    transfer".
Then check in their definition whether they are relevant to
    affiliated company.
If they are NOT RELEVANT to affiliated company, you can
    substitute them with other transaction type Relevant to affiliated
    company.
2. Please check the definition of transfer variant. In the transfer
    variant, you have assigned the transaction type for both retirement
    and acqusition for relation type 1. Both transaction types should be
    set as "post to affiliated company" .
Please note that the abovementioned points must be checked because
the system logic will check the validity of the default value in
Point 1.
Then the transaction type in the point 2 will be used instead and
re-checked again.
Have you try to use 'No Reveune' in the specification for revenue?,
I think if it is afflicated companies, you are not allowed to use
revenue.
This error can also be produced because a wrong definition of the trans-
fer variants. Please have a look on note 327088 for further details.
Most of the issues on this matter were solved with this last Note.
Cheers, Blaz

Intercompany Stock Transfer issue

Hi experts ,
I have one issue for customer/vendor creation for intercompany STO. Scenario is as follows-
There are 2 companies Comp1 & Comp2. Comp 1 has three plants P1,P2,P3. Comp2 has 1 plant P4.
Now all the plants P1,P2,P3 of Comp1 can send materials to P4 of Comp2.
My question is
1. how many vendors and customers need to be created to map this STO scenario .
and
2. what should be the plant assignment to each vendor and customer.
Your solution will be appriciated with points.
Regards,
santosh

Hi
First,
Follow the below steps to to make STO between two plants ( different company company codes).It is also called as Inter Company STO.....
1)Create one Customer Master in XD01 with respect to Supplying Plant Sales Area and assign this Customer no with Receiving Plant in OLME->PO-> set up STO->Define shipping data for plant and for the supplying Plant assign the above sales area.( Make sure,In Customer Master,sales Area Tab: you are maintaining shipping condition)
2) For Receiving Plant Pur. Org and Co.Code Combination create Vendor master in XK01 and in this vendor master assign the Supplying plant in Pur.Org.Data screen->Extras--> Add.Pur.data
3) OLME->PO-> Set up STO------>For your supplying plant assign document type NB, Delivery type NLCC and Checking Rule RP
4)then For your supplying Plant and receiving Plant assign Document type NB
5)Make sure you are maintaining Sales View for the material at supplying Plant and in Sales /Gen plant Data view maintain Availability check, Loading group and Transportation group.
6) In SPRo-->Logistics execution> Shipping->Basic shipping functions->Shipping point Determination>assign shipping points-> For your Loading group,Shipping Condition and Supplying plant combination,Assign shipping point
these are the configuration settings you have to do in background.
Then Create STO from Receing Plant in ME21N with document type NB.
Based on that STO, Create Delivery in VL10B from supplying Plant
Do PGI in VL02N from Supplying plant
Do GR in MIGO at Receiving Plant keeping Outbound delivery as a ref. document.
Now your STO bet. two plants belongs to diff. Co.Codes will be completed.
Now come to your case....
1. how many vendors and customers need to be created to map this STO scenario
For your Receiving plant Pur.Org. and Company Code combination....create 3 diff vendors in XK01 and in each vendor maintain each plant separately as a Supplying Plant....
2. what should be the plant assignment to each vendor and customer.
If all your plants P1,P2 and P3 of Company 1 is assigned to One sale area....then create only one Customer master for your Supplying Plant Sale area and assign this Customer no to the Receining Plant...
Reward if useful

Intercompany Stock Transfer Order Returns

Our company uses plant-to-plant stock transport orders to record the movement of stock. We are on SAP R/3 version 4.7. When the two plants in question are in different company codes, an intercompany billing (type IV) results from the supplying plant (Plant 1) to the receiving plant (Plant 2). Our pricing procedure for intercompany sales includes a markup on the standard cost (Plant 1 has a small profit, and Plant 2 has a higher standard price).
My problem is that sometimes Plant 2 has to return some of the stock to Palnt 1. I cannot just process an STO from Plant 2 to Plant 1, because it would process as a sale from Plant 2 to Plant 1, with a markup on the already higher standard price in Plant 2. What I need to do is process a return on the original STO PO, which would generate a return credit billing from Plant 1 to Plant 2.
I tried to enter a PO return Delivery using TCode MBRL, and I got the error message that "There are no Open Items on the PO". Since, on a regular PO to an outside vendor, the MBRL transaction creates the open item, this indicates there is something about the intercompany process that prevents this from being the solution in this case. How can I process a return on an intercompany STO, that will generate a Return Credit Billing (type IG) from Plant 1 to Plant 2)?

Hi Laura,
If you are processing with delivery, you shd check the delivery indicator in MBRL Transaction.
In your scenario if Plant A has shipped to plant B and Plant B return to plant A on a return PO. Plant A raises the crdeit memo on plant B.
Typically returns are done with as you create a return purchase order with Return indicator create an outbound delivery and do 161 movement and subsequent PGR on the outbound delivery.
Thanks

Intercompany Stock Transfer - without clearing accounts

Dear all,
I have configured in one client machine the Intercompany stock transfer process, following the indications of the different messages posted in the forum (vendor allocated to supplying plant, customer associated to receiving plant, NB purchase order, define shipping data for plants, assign delivery type and checking rule (NLC), deliveries items, schedule lines, etc).
The process works correctly (purchase order, outbound delivery in supplying plant, inbound delivery in receiving plant, and interCo billing). In the outbound delivery posting, BSX and GBB operations are used.
After that in other client machine I have configured the same process, with the same master data and so on. But in the outbound delivery posting, BUV operation is called and it is compulsory to fill in clearing accounts in Tx. OBYA. This leads to two account document creation.
I have check:
- Movement configuration --> the same in both client machines
How can I deactivate the last behaviour. I don't want to use this automatic clearing. I would like to achieve the outbound delivery posting like in the first case (BSX and GBB).
Any ideas?
Thank you very much in advance.
Alberto.

Hi Jürgen,
I also tried this option but then the following error appeared:
"Message no. F5598: Posting keys for account determination for transaction BUV do not exist".
Some point is forcing the PGI to ask for BUV operation (Tx. OBYA).
Thank you for your contribution.

Moving Average Price---Intercompany sales process

Hi,
I have a special requirement in Intercompany process..
I want the Ordering company to be charged with Moving Average Price of the Material instead of the Normal Price.
Can some on help me out with this?
Thanks,
Challa.

Hi,
In general i hope, system will not copy the moving average price from the material master through VPRS Condition. In case its not copied then you need to write the logic in alternative condition coloum to copy the moving averate price.
Please confirm whether VPRS is working for moving average price, if not then develop the logic as below -
based on Material and plant, go to table MBEW with selection as MATNR and WERKS bring the value from the field VERPR where VPRSV=V.
Plese confirm for my knowledge also
