Intercompany elimination at legal entity and profit centre level
All,
I have a question regarding intercompany elimination. As far as I understand, BPC can only hold one Interco dimension per application. If you want to perform an intercompany elimination for two dimensions which do not roll up into each other, two separate applications are needed. Please see example below to clarify:
Data is reported the following way:
Legal entity Profit Centre Account Interco Value
The problem is that the profit centre hierarchy does not roll up into the legal entity hierarchy mainly because there are profit centres set up as legal entities. Consequently, the legal entity hierarchy and the profit centre hierarchy are two independent hierarchies.
The business requirement is to have an intercompany elimination at profit centre and legal entity level at the same time (hence requiring two Intercos at the same time). This is needed as some of the profit centres are set up as legal entities.
Can someone advise me as to how to resolve this issue? Did anyone come across a similar problem?
Please let me know if you require any further clarifications.
Marc
Hi
Try to use 2 application for the interco elimination
for the 1st appls ur entity will be the entity dimension and use intco as intco dimension
for the 2nd one use the profit center as entity and build a new intco
As per interco logic this is using the Intco property in the Entity dimension and Entity property in intco dimension
it is very impossible to do this in one application
Thanks

What is a Legal Entity and Operating Unit??
Hi,
Could someone let me know what exactly is a Legal Entity and Operating Unit. The definition or explanation in the documentation is not satisfactory or clear. What are the differences between the above.
And where in the per_all_assignments_f table is the Legal entity stored. I know that the Legal entity is stored in the Statutory information in the assignments screen. Also can someone let me how based on the company code in the organization the legal entity is linked. Where in the tables is this link maintained?
Could someone let me know the above.
Thanks
Shekar.Dear Shekar
what exactly is a Legal Entity and Operating Unit?
ANS: According the Book or user guide definitions says:
GRE/Legal Entity: Use this classification to represent the following organizations:
Ultimate Legal Entity: this represents the enterprise, and typically, the enterprise is the highest (global) level of a business organization.
Legal Entity: this represents the designated legal employer for all employment-related activities. The legal authorities in a country recognize this organization as a separate employer. In an organization hierarchy, a legal entity may report to an operating company or to the ultimate legal entity.
Consolidated Legal Entity: this organization acts on behalf of multiple operating companies that are not legally registered, or simply on behalf of the enterprise in a country.
See Shekar the Legal Entity is taken under Classification is we know that the organization is going to show the Taxation to the Government. where as if u take typical UAE countruies here every store is an LLC and they submit the taxing for every store or shop.
Where as Operating Unit is generally used for the different lines of business which are under that Business GRoup
Say for an Example:
ABC is the Company name and that has its root in UAE, Qatar and Oman
then it is like ABC Business Group > UAE Legal Entity > REtail/Property/Furniture etc are the Operating Units.
Hope this information is helpful and clear to you or else let me know if you have any concerns.
Coming to the Company Code we use the code for the Inventory Organizations so that the clients will not get confused with the existing code and the system code so generally we use the same codes for it. -

Sunil SrinivasanHi
If you have the sales document number VBELN then pass this VBELN in to table VBAK and you can get the sales document type VBAK-AUART.
Now pass the same VBELN to VBAP table here you can get the Profit Center VBAP-PRCTR
For sales Document type description you pass the VBAK-AUART values into table TVAKT table and get the values for TVAKT-BEZEI is you sales document type description
For Profit center description goto table CEPCT and enter the profit center you will get the

Cost centre and Profit centre in one query - Authorisations not working!
Hiya,
I have another problem related to Analysis Authorisations.
I have created an AA with Cost Centre and Profit centre access restricted to a certain node of a hierarchy (type 1 - this node and below). For example, the User can only run a query at Cost Centres level of Country Belgium - the query works fine. Now, the user wants to drill down by the relevant Profit centres. According to the log, the system checks for Profit centres like * and says the user is not authorised. All this, despite the fact that all Profit centres belong to country Belgium and user has been given access to see these profit centres.
What do I need to do to enable drilldown by Profit centre? I can't make a "*" access to Profit centre as the user will be able to run other queries at global level, which is not what I can allow.
Any suggestions?Hello,
I don't know if it is relevant, but I had a similar problem when I had two characteristic each with hierarchy restrictions in one authorization object.
I "solved" it by separting each characteristic into its own authorization object.

Sales Documents and Profit Centre and GL Accounts
Currently a when we create a sales document for a plant, that document is posting to a specific GL account (Cash on Hand account) and profit centre. In VKOA, the Account Assignment Group is assignment to a GL Account, and that AAG is assigned to the material master. I want to find out how SAP is currently determining to which profit centre and GL Account it is posting to. The only thing that I can get is the Plant and sales office in the Sales document. I want to know the determination factor

Assign Plant to a GL Account and Profit Centre
Where do I assign a plant to a GL account and Profit Centre.
Hi,
a plant is not direct assigned to a profit-center and not to a G/L account.
A plant is assigned to a company code (in customizing), a GL account can be created (account master data) within a company code (if its used in this CC), a profit-center is assigned to one/more company codes (profit-center master data).
In material master / costing 1 view (which is plant related) you can assign a material to a profit center, thus all postings in one plant related to this material belong to this profit center.

Division and Profit Centre Relationship?
Hi,
Is anyone able to provide a definition of the objects DIVISION and PROFIT CENTRE and also what their relationship is with each other?
Thanks,
M.Division : A way of grouping materials, products, or services. The system uses divisions to determine the sales areas and the business areas for a material, product, or service.
A product or service is always assigned to just one division. From the point of view of sales and distribution, the use of divisions lets you organize your sales structure around groups of similar products or product lines. This allows the people in a division who process orders and service customers to specialize within a manageable area of expertise.
Profit Centre: An organizational unit in Accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization for the purpose of internal control.
Operating results for profit centers can be analyzed using either the cost of sales approach or the period accounting approach.
By analyzing the fixed capital as well, you can expand your profit centers for use as investment centers. -

Automatic plan figures updates at Profit Centre level.
Hi,
I would like to know whether do we have any scenario like Automatic Plan figures updates at Profit Centre Accounting level when we do Cost Centre planning. The Profit Centre should be picked up by the system automatically from the Cost Centre master.
Of course, here the Cost Centre to Profit Centre relationship is 1:1.
If anybody come across the above required scenario, please let me know how to achieve it.
Thanks for your inputs well in advance.
Note: I know we can copy the Cost Centre plan figures to Profit Centre level by using copy function.
Regards.
ChandraHi
In version maintenance, you need to tick integrated planning....
In PCA, create the doc types for planning and maintain no ranges...
Also, if you are on New GL and you want to use New GL planning, you need to do settings in new GL menu for the same... assign version to ledger, fiscal year , etc
last month there were couple of threads on it .. Refer this link for new GL planning settings

Legal Entity and Operating Unit Setup
Hi,
we are in a process of implementing Oracle Financials R12.1.3 to a group of company (Ex:"A").
That parent company ("A") associates with another three subsidiaries (Ex: A1, A2 and A3). All these four companies can share the same ledger and operating in one country.
So I'm with bit confusion whether It can use One Legal Entity with four operating units or do we have to create four legal entities?
Awaiting for clarifications and Thanks / LathikaHi All,
You have to think beyond application functionality, if there these 3 subsidiaries are registered with different name under local governance law then you should create separate Legal entity for each company or subsidiary.

SagarHi
A good way to make this Check compulsory in case Document Splitting is active in your system.
Follow the path
IMG>Financial Accounting (New)>General Ledger Accounting (New)>Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Define Document Splitting Chracteristics for General Ledger Accounting.
Here you can make splitting active for Both business Area and profit center.
If any where in the posting system does not find either of Business Area or Profit Center, it would give an error
Thanks & regards
