Intra company / different business area service jobs flow

Dear all
The business process is below
The Machinary plant which is providing the repair/services to its parent plant. All the incoming materils from parents plant will be non valuated for repairing thro notification. After receipt of the services ,machinary plant will create the service order. All the costs will be booked. The serviced materail is despatched to the parent plant with out inventory account. While services all the materails, activities are performed in machinary plant account.
The service order which has expenses costs it should settle into the parents company cost center, order. But this one has separate business area.
For above this shall we follow the process as _Maintenance Notification (by parent plant)---Non valuated materail reciept( at service plant) -- Material or equipment master creation -- service Notification creation - Service order creation & process Settlement into parents cost center.*-- Despatch of service Product---Receipt with out Purchase order-.*_
Here i am not understanding how the parent plant will get the maintenance cost of the equipments since of non valuable material.
For above process any one explain please

Hi,
The TCodes for the Transfers are as follows:
ABUMN: For intra-company or Inter-plant transfers
ABT1N- For Inter-company transfers.
If you have only 1 company code,then there is no need of using the TCode ABT1N, You can use ABUMN.
Regarding the excise invoices,you can post the same once billing is done,by using TCode:J1IIN,but of course it will depend at which point your client would do the excise invoice.
Hope this is useful.

Number range based on different business area for same document type

Hi All,
The scenario is my client wants to give the different number range for a particular document type based on different business area.
Is there any user exit by which I can restrict the same.
Regards,
Meenakshi

Hello,
Document number ranges are created per company code and fiscal year. You cannot create / restrict the document number ranges per business area.
Business areas a independent of all organizational values, they cut across all company codes.

GR/IR Automatic Clearing for Different Business areas items

Hello All,
we have different business areas, and some times we create a PO for all business areas and invoice it in a specific business area
in F.13 automatic clearing:
for GR/IR account
Documents with different business area cannot be cleared.
any idea to solve this issue is appreciated,

Thanks for your reply,
I've tried such a solution with more parameters ( EBELN, XREF3 and EBELP)
but in F.13 :
- the document cannot be cleared when >>> selecting GR/IR account special process.
if we treat GR account as a normal GL account, I mean without selecting GR/IR account special process.
the document can be clear
i want to be able to clear the document with selecting GR/IR field ( is it possible )
and if it is not allowed, do we will face a problem by clearing GR account without selecting GR/IR parameter ??
Many Thanks

Different Business Area in Customer line item while Billing

Dear Friends,
We are on Ecc 6.0 and We have a requirement of Different Business Area in Customer line while billing. Since we had defined Business area location wise and requirement is Sundry Debtors should always book to Location as maintained in delivery plant field of sales area data in customer master.
Requirement:- Our material is assigned to Plant 115.In customer master, sales area data -> shipping tab -> Delivery Plant (KNVV- VWERKS), we are maintaining "112", Now while billing and while generating Accounting document account entry is
Customer 1000.00 (Business area=115)
sales 1000.00 (Business area=115)
But our requirement while accounting document after billing is
Customer 1000.00 (Business area=112), system should check and derive the same from TABLE KNVV - VWERKS(DEL PLANT)
sales 1000.00 (Business area=115).
Please revert.
Regards,
Sandeep

Dear Friends,
One can do the same via using a userexit.

Business Area is not flowing to Billing Doc Line item

Hi,
Since recently we have observed that in some billing document creation, the business area in sales order line item is not flowing to the billing document line item.
VBRP-GSBER remains blank due to which we face problem in J1IIN txn.
This is not happening in all the cases. There are very few instances where business area is becoming blank in billing document line item.
But when the same billing document is reversed and new billing document is created, the business area flows properly to billing document line item (in VBRP).
Can anybody suggest why such erratic behaviour? And how to resolve the issue?
Thanks and Regards
Ratna

Dear Shiva Ram and Srinath,
Thanks for your reply
I had checked the settings in SPRO. These are OK. The sales order line item is deriving business area properly. But in some cases (not in all the cases) the business area is not flowing to Billing Line Item during billing document creation. It is happening in production server and not in development server.
I intend to use user exit userexit_fill_vbrk_vbrp to fill the VBRP-GSBER col with VBAK-GSBER if VBRP-GSBER is blank during saving the sales bill thro VF01..
Pl. suggest.
Regards
Ratna

Document Splitting with Different Business Area

HI
I have a situation, where i need to create a new document type and it needs to be configured in such a way that vendor invoices and credit notes can be booked with the correct doc splitting and using different Business Areas.
I like to know if this is possible, and if yes how.
Earlier the client used to post the transactions, with different business areas, as we get only a warning message to reset the business area of the vendor.
Now that we have activated New G/L accounting, with document splitting we get the warning message,
but then the profit center will not balance, so we have an error.
The client requires that they need to post to a different business area, and the document splitting should happen.
Any suggestions on this will be great.

Hi Srikanth,
In my config setting under Document Splitting i have the Zero Balance ticked for it.
My Scenario is as an Ex. I am debiting a G/L account for 1000, and giving Business Area X, with a cost Center which is assigned to Business Area X.
And Crediting a Vendor for 1000 with Business Area Y.
Will this scenario work with Document Splitting enabled, i am doubtful on this, but my client needs this.
Can you tell me if this is a possible scnerio.
If yes then how?

Proper use of one table in different business areas

Hi
We will be using certain DB tables in several business areas and we are more than one person to define them.
If a table is loaded from the database for each of the business areas it will be numbered 'table 1, 2...' which does't seem very desirable. Also I'd rather define hiearchies only once and for all.
If a table is loaded only once and used for all the business areas all the joins which are necessary in the different business areas are shown. This will be confusing. If one of us considers a certain join unnecessary he might accidentially delete the wrong one belonging to a different business area.
Exporting the business areas including the joins regularly is probably not a great help if afterwards new joins for other business areas were added.(?)
Am I misunderstanding the concept of Discoverer?
How do you handle such a situation?
Advice appreciated

Hi Michael, et al,
I'm just planning my EUL and your comments in the last post seem relevant.
My general plan is as follows:
(1) Create a BaseMaster BA which is used to bring and tables/views from the database into disco. The folders in here will be created with "New Folder from database" and be fairly straightforward, with only very simple calculations and no aggregations in calculations. The joins will echo the joins in the underlying database. This is not shared with Users.
(2) Create a CustomMaster BA which contains Custom Folders which consist of various SQL views of the database. The SQL in these may use have some more complex calculations and these calculations may include aggregation. This will not be shared with users.
(3) Create a CentralMaster BA which contains Complex Folders which are assembled from items from the BaseMaster BA and the CustomMaster BA. These folders may include more complex calculations and the calculations may include aggregated items.
(4) Create a number of User BA's. Using Manage Folders, share the relevant Folders from the Central Master.
I've got a few questions relating to this.
(a) Custom Folders based on Folders
It would seem nice to me if it were possible to create Custom Folders which were based on other Folders, rather than Database Views. Then, even if you need a view and a complex transformation of that view in your business area, you still only have one place where the EUL brings that view into disco. My understanding is that this is not possible. Am I right? I suppose there could be an argument that complex transformations should be pushed back to the DBA but it seems reasonable to me that sometimes this sort of thing could be within the remit of the disco admin?
(b) SQL Efficiency
Am I right in thinking that generally a complex folder is usually not much less efficient than using a base folder because the SQL interpreter ends up optimising the SQL?
And a last question which has turned out rather complex - by all means ignore it if you like - it's me getting to grips with the process.
(c) Nested Complex Folders
I presume that if a transformation is needed which would in a normal database environment would need a mainquery and a subquery, then this could be done in a
number of ways (adhering to the above methodology) by:
(i) Get the DBA to write a view which does both mainquery and subquery and then bring into the BaseMaster and then straight into the CentralMaster folder.
(ii) Get the DBA to write the subquery, bring this into the BaseMaster and then implement the mainquery in the CentralMaster.
(iii) Create a Folder in CustomMaster which implements both mainquery and subquery and then bring this into the CentralMaster folder.
(iv) Create a Folder in the CustomMaster which implements just the subquery and then implement the main query in the Central Master.
If you've got this far - thankyou for baring with me.
Perhaps there's something written about this sort of thing or maybe it's just a matter of practice!
Any thoughts on all this would be much appreciated.
Kind regards
Suhada

Same folders in different business areas

Hi,
Is it possible to access folders across business areas?
I was not able to do the above so I created (New folder from database) the same folder into 2 different business areas. But I cannot have the same names. Why? I see some folders created previously with the same names in both the business areas. Is there some other way?
Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone
Business area names, folder names, and join names are unique across the system. It is possible to have the same folder in multiple business areas and this is not uncommon. It is also possible to reference the same object using multiple folders, making sure the identifier and folder names are unique.
If you have a folder that you want to duplicate, rather than share between business areas, you can highlight the folder in one area, copy it using CTRL-C, and the using CTRL-V paste it into the other area. Doing this gives you a copy of the folder pointing at the same underlying object. This is useful if you want to reference the same object several times, say for aliasing purposes or for ease of querying. I do this all the time when working with fiscal time folders and it works like a dream.
Hope this helps
Regards
Michael

Cross Company - Different Sales Area - Intercompany

Dear Gurus,
My client having the following requirement and having one issue while I am processing this.
My company book the provision of rebate at company code 1000 sales area 1000+10+10, and customer lets say 12345,
When create manual rebate payment in the rebate agreement system automatically create credit memo request, plus there is a provision to change the sold to party.
So when I change the sold to party there that is created on company code 2000 sales area 2000+10+10 and lets say customer is 7777, system give the error message that "Sold to party not maintain for sales area 1000+10+10"
I have assign the document type to both sales area, plus If I separately choose this document type and create credit memo request for customer 7777 system cant give me any error message...
Please suggest the reason and required action so that system can facilitate this.
regards,

Both customer account group are same, basically its not only one customer, the behaviour apply to thousands of customers.
I have the following observations that's why system give the message and looking for any option for this.
when in manual payment of rebate I input the value of rebate and save it, system automatically create the credit memo request, and the same customer is saved along with the sales area at header level, like 12345, 1000+10+10,
when I use va02, and change the customer system cant change the header data sales area to 2000+10+10, so its simply give the error message, and document type also assign on both sales area, system basically cant re-determine the sales area.
So is there any possibility for this.
regards,
