Invalid Control Account Error in DTW Import

Hi Experts,
I am trying to Update the Existing BP Master Record with New Receivable Control Account. But while processing DTW system throws an error message says that
Invalid Control Account Type Application-defined or object-defined erroroBusiness Partners.
I am using Segmented Chart of Accounts and i have defined the account as _SYS000002300 in Template.
I have created that account as Control Account in Chart of Accounts.
I have mentioned these account in GL Determinations.
There is no customer with foreign currency
Environment
SAP B1 8.8 PL 12
SQL Server 2008
Windows 2008 Server

I have been through this and you can import these updates by using the OCRD template and only having the CardCode and DebitorAccount columns..this will allow you to update those records. The deposit field if you need it is called DownPaymentClearAct
Hope this helps.

Can't post JE to control account

I am trying to import my clients historical month end balances for 2008 (Jan, Feb, March etc...). However, my imports are erroring out with the message "Cannot perform transaction in controlling type account 1210-310-00." This is my client's A/R account. If SAP isn't going to let me post to any control accounts how can I upload my client's historical GL balances?

You do need to split the opening balance between the actual debtors. This can also be achieved using the Opening Balances form, and keying the data for each business partner.
It will make it more difficult when receiving payments against the however, so, we generally import open documents as service based documents with the GL account for "revenue" offsetting to an Opening Balances account. This should all reconcile to nil once all the Gl Opening balances have been entered.

Change GL Account Type from Balance Sheet Account to P&L Statmt Account

Hi Experts's
We have mistakenly defined the GL account as type Balance Sheet Account type and Some postings are done on this GL, we need to change it to P&L Statmt Account, When we do that it's throwing message FH602, as below.
Change balance sheet control in spite of account balance
     Message no. FH602
Diagnosis
     You have changed the G/L account from a "balance sheet account" to a
     "P&L account" or conversely.
     The balance of the account is, however, not zero.
Procedure
     Check your entries.
     If the G/L account was already posted in the previous year, execute the
     balance carryforward again for the current fiscal year. (program
     SAPF011).
Please let me know the procedure to do this change, or do i have to run any report.
Thanks

HI
If you are mid-year please try this:
Balance sheet having 10000 credit balace
try to post like this manually
Balance sheet account dr 10000
to Profit and loss account 10000
now tick the Profit and loss account and reverse the entry
try this in test environment first
Thanks & Regards

Account group and Account Type.

Hi all,
Could you please tell me the diferences between GL Account group (by example cash, expense, revenue ....) which we define in IMG - Financial Accounting - General Ledger Accounting - G/L Accounts - Master Records - Preparations - Define Account Group and Account Type (by example: Vendor, Customer, Material, GL Account) which is in the screen "create account type" IMG - Financial Accounting - Financial Accounting Global Settings - Document - Document Header - Define Document Types ?
Thank you very much.

Hi
Account Group Controls the Master records. It controls the number range of Master record and Field status group (Supress, Required, Optional and Display) also. SAP follows a Grouping principle all throughout SAP to handle the Master Records that may be in GL, AR AP any thing. See to create a GL Account group you define at OBD4 there itself you assign the Number Range or those groups which also controls Field Staus of GL Master Records. And for Creating AR and AP Master Records you create at OBD2 and Vendor at OBD3 which will also controls Field Status Group of And Number range of Master record. The only difference between GL and AR/AP is assigning of number range. For GL will specify at OBD4 itself but for AR/AP we need to create a number range at FBN1 then assign to AR And AP at OBD2 and OBD3 respectively.
One more thing. Remember only Field Status group of Master recard (OBD2, OBD3, OBD4) only contain Display option but not to Posting Key or Field Satus Group (OB41 or OBC4). I am so specifing becoz I commited this mistake in one interview.
In summary, the account group controls:
i) The number ranges of the accounts,
ii) The status of the fields in the company code segment of the master record. Since a chart of accounts contains many different types of accounts, they can be bundled into different "account groups ". Usually one account group bundles
accounts with the same tasks within the general ledger, e. g. cash accounts, material accounts, asset accounts, profit and loss
accounts,...

What is Control Accounts? What is C/A for A/R and A/P?

I have US COA set up automatically by SBO. So all accounts are already set up there.
When I go to: Administration > Setup > Financial > G/L Account Determination:
In Sales (general) tab, I noticed Account Receivable with (...) next to it.
When I clicked it, it will bring window of Control Accounts for A/R.
In Purchasing (general) tab, I noticed Account Payable with (...) next to it.
When I clicked it, it will bring window of Control Accounts for A/P.
1. What is this Control Accounts?
Can I leave it blank as it is? If I left it blank, will it affect financial result? If the answer is it is OK to leave it blank then no need to answer my questions below. If I need to fill it out, then I need help with questions # 2 and # 3 below.
2. Inside this Control Accounts for A/R: (note: we do business Domestic only)
What will be the correct Account Code for Down Payment Receivable? (My guess it is A/R Domestic)?
What will be the correct Account Code for Open Debts? (My guess it is A/R Domestic)?
3. Inside this Control Accounts for A/P: (note: we do business Domestic only)
What will be the correct Account Code for Down Payment Payable? (My guess it is A/P Domestic)?
What will be the correct Account Code for Open Debts? (My guess it is A/P Domestic)?
What will be the correct Account Code for Assets Account? (My guess it is A/P Domestic)?
Thank you.

Hi Tom
You can define a G/L account as a control account.
A control account links the business partner accounts to the general ledger. You must enter a control account in every business partner master record. Whenever you post a document to a business partner account, the system automatically adds a journal entry to the general ledger, which posts the receivables or payables to this control account.
Some transactions, such as transactions with bills of exchange, must be posted to special control accounts. Therefore, you can assign these special accounts to predefined transaction types, such as
Open Debts, Assets Account, Down Payments Receivable/Payable or other (country-dependent).
You can also enter default control accounts under Administration  Setup  Financials  G/L Account Determination. These accounts appear by default whenever you create a new business partner.
The system displays the total account balance in the business partner master record. From there you can navigate to the line item display of the account. In the line item display, the system displays the debit values in black and the credit values in green and in parentheses.
If you are working with several control accounts, the system can display the business partner balances separately for every control account. To activate this, choose Administration  System Initialization  General Settings and select the Display Accounts Balance by Control Accounts indicator on the BP tab.
You must have the proper authorization to view the accounts and balances.
Hope this helps.

In B1 Import of G/L history does not go to Control Account? How then?

Hi Forum,
I have tried it myself and read through the forum to know, when we import transactions such as A/R and A/P G/L history, we can not import the renovations to the A/R or A/P Control Account.
If we make the control account, non-control, then it can not be made Control again after transactions are entered? Call these accounts that contain A/R and A/P history as 1111 and 2222.
Some customers may have many control accounts for A/R and A/p depending upon their warehouses etc.
The question is?
Going forward all current transactions from A/R and A/P will go to a different control account say 1000 and 2000, and all old transactions related to that customer from previous months is in a different account - 1111, 2222.
How do you handle this situation? What do customers of SAP B1 do? For getting history of Business partner, other statistics etc.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Son Tran,
I tried tried your suggestions the best I could in my setting, but I failed again. The DTW keeps complaining about Control Account can not be used. Here are my Journal Entry import header and lines that work (that is without control account).

In the above JDT1 Lines all account codes are non control accounts. There is only one A/R account that I want changed to control account. That is 12350000 will be changed to 12110000 (this is a control account).
When I do the change to control account, the above DTW import fails with the error - 1000415 Cannot perform transaction in controlling type account JDT1 - 1211000 error 65171.
Look forward to your help.
I also tried many other combinations and failed.

For account 199999, the account group is Recon. account and acct type is Vendors.
Can anybody let me know the solution to this issue? Thank you all in advance!
Best Regards!

Hi Eli:
Thanks for your reply. But if I delete the account in OBYC, I will get another error message: "Account determination for entry TDCC BSX 0001 ___ ZZXX not possible". If I maintain the entry: "0001 ZZXX 19999" in BSX in OBYC, I will get the error above.
Do you know how to resolve that?

Test script logic file - Errror "Invalid Dimension Account"

Hi BPC Experts,
I am a new bee in BPC and have developed HCM applicaton in BPC 5.1. The Appset contains Finance, Rate & HCM applications.
I am working on HCM and wants to write a script logic file for HCM and it is giving an ERROR "Invalid Dimensin Account".
I have following dimensions in HCM Application:
account_hc --> type A
category_hc --> type C
company_hc --> type E
time_hc       --> time t
costcenter_hc --> type u
datasrc_hc      --> type d
employerole_hc --> type u
geography_hc --> type u
rptcurrency_hc --> type r.
I had defined Dimensions in system_cnstants file as mentioned below.
// application constants
*FUNCTION CATEGORYDIM         =CATEGORY_HC
*FUNCTION TIMEDIM =TIME_HC
*FUNCTION CURRENCYDIM =RPTCURRENCY_HC
*FUNCTION ENTITYDIM =COMPANY_HC
*FUNCTION ACCOUNTDIM =ACCOUNT_HC
*FUNCTION INTCODIM =INTCO
*FUNCTION CATEGORYDIM         =CATEGORY
*FUNCTION TIMEDIM =TIME
*FUNCTION CURRENCYDIM =RPTCURRENCY
*FUNCTION ENTITYDIM =ENTITY
*FUNCTION ACCOUNTDIM =ACCOUNT
// This part is needed when a RATE cube
// is associated to the application
// (FX = single or multi currency)
*FUNCTION THISAPP =HCM
*FUNCTION RATEAPP =RATE
*FUNCTION RATEENTITYDIM =RATESRC
*FUNCTION RATEACCOUNTDIM =RATE
*FUNCTION INPUTCURRENCYDIM =INPUTCURRENCY
*FUNCTION RATEENTITYMBR =RATEINPUT
*FUNCTION RATESRCCALCMBR =RATECALC
*FUNCTION AVGRATEID=AVG
*FUNCTION ENDRATEID=END
I tried to validate and save standard default script logic. But it gives me an error " NO match defined for lookup dimension Category"
So I could not use default logic file to write my script logic. Hence I have created HCM logic file. and Given the following script logic.
*XDIM_MEMBERSET ACCOUNT = XYZ_INC_RetPlan
*WHEN ACCOUNT
*IS XYZ_INC_RetPlan
*REC(FACTOR = 1.1, ACCOUNT)
*ENDWHEN
*COMMIT
While validat & save, I get an error "Invalid Dimension Account".
I do not understand why these errors occuring.
I have checked Category & Account dimensions checked. Every thing is ok. I have created Input schedules and they are working ok. It means the dimensions are fine.
Then why the error ?
Can you guys please guide me.
Appreciate your kind help.

Eswara,
try to close down BPC for ExCEl in case your IS/Reports are trying to access the APPlication.And also any other BPC ADmin screens accessing the same Application/Dimension.
1)try to only do a "process " on the account dimension without including the processing for Applications...
2)then try to do a process on the application.
Now your script should be able to recognize Account dimension and validate fine..
hope this helps...

Maintaining different values for Accounting Type (KOART)

Hi experts,
I have several accounting tcodes such as FBV0, FB03, FB08, FV65,FV60 in one parent role.
FV60, FV65 are added to this role as FBV0 is checking internally for this authorization object.
All these tcodes share a same object F_BKPF_KOA which differ by activity and the accounting type (KOART).
The KOART field is an org level field defined by SAP and I have entered D,K,S as values.
But the auth object values should be different for the accounting types.
i.e 03 for D,K,S
01,02,03,77 for S
03,77 for K
All the derived/child roles for this parent should also have the same document type as the parent. How can I achieve this as this object is maintained at the org level.
I could not delete this obj from being an org level element as it is defined by SAP.
Appreciate your response.
Thanks
Kee

> If KOART is an org field you cannot differentiate between authorized activities for each of the KOART values in one role. Whether you maintain values in the parent or not only matters if you're planning to assign the parent roles to users or if you just use them as templates.
>
Parent Roles should not be assigned to any users. It should only be used as Template to grant and control Non-Organization Level authorizations centrally (you can see these option in Parent roles). Concept of Parent-Child role is to avoid creating same roles where all authorization field values are exactly same and differs only for Organization Values (different Site / Branch Office specific constants). So we can maintain the Org. levels as different sets for a single Parent role as I already explained.
For more details: Note#314513 - PFCG: Maintaining individual organizational levels
Note#532695 - PFCG: Incorrect organizational level values in derived roles

> Please elaborate on this one. I think we're running into an urban myth here....
>
> Organizational levels are only instruments to assist in building roles. For the final profile it does not matter whether a field is organizational or not. It will not influence the behaviour of the authority-check.
For the final profile it matters during loading of User authorization data to User Buffer. Think about the Parameter values stored for a particular user. How it behaves for all Objects containing a particular Auth. Field and providing default assignment for that user whenever he tries to perform any action where this field is required to populate.
If we delete any Object from SU24 proposal then it doesn't mean that the check will not be carried out or the Org. Field contained in that object will not be populated with it's values. I tried to make this clear to the requester.

G\L Account types

Hi,
what are the types of G\L Accounts? What is the T.code to create the g\l account at the chrt of accounts level?
what is meant by Group account?
Thanks.

Hi,
G/L accounts can be devided by the following account types: Assets, Liabilities, Fund Balances, Expenses, and Revenue
Asset, Liability, or Fund Balance Accounts
If the request is for an Asset, Liability, or Fund Balance account, establish the account in SAP and establish a corresponding Balance Sheet Account in the Classic system. Also maintain the mapping between the G/L Account and the Balance Sheet Account.
Revenue or Expense Accounts
If the request is for a Revenue or Expense Account, set up a corresponding Primary Revenue or Cost Element in the Controlling module (CO) of SAP and an Object Code in the Classic system. Also maintain the mapping between the G/L Account and the Object Code.
Employee Benefit, Allocations, or Overhead Expense Accounts
If the request is for Employee Benefit, Allocations, or Overhead Expense accounts, no SAP G/L Account is needed. However, set up a Secondary Cost Element in SAP Controlling and an Object Code in the Classic system. Also maintain the mapping between the Secondary Cost Element to the Object Code.
You can create it with T code FS00.
Thanks

How to create more control accounts by BP ?

Hello,
When dealing with some advances given to a BP (let say to an employee), there is the possibility to post it onto the account called down-payment receivables / payables.
But let say that my unit wished to handle more than one single advance like :
Advance in salary
Advance in car rental
Advance in house rental, etc....
If i keep as such, i can only follow one type of advance by employee.
Is there any way to handle more advances, that is to say managing more control accounts by business partners ?
Thank you
Stephane

Stephane,
The way I see Employee Advances being handled generally is by creating a Vendor Record for Each employee. So, every employee is a BP (Vendor).
Create an A/P Invoice (service type) and add a row for each type of Advance with the respective G/L Account. Continue and Process the Outgoing Payment. This way each type of Advance is seperately recorded.
If the Employee repays the advance, create a A/P credit memo and process an Incoming Payment (from Vendor).
The other option would be to create a A/P Credit Memo with the appropriate Advance G/L Accounts. Make an Outgoing Payment to Vendor without referencing the A/P Credit Memo.
When the Employee repays, Reconcile using link invoices to Payments (outgoing).
There are few other ways to handle this but it all depends on how you want to track these in your business.
