Inventory value difference between SAP and leagcy system

Hello Gurus,
My client has inventory value difference in SAP and Legacy system during cutoff activities due to following reason.
a. Rounding off
b. GRN done
C. Goods issue done
Can I do the manual posting for Value difference?.if yes then how?
Please guide me on the same.
Regards
SAP FI

Hi
It is not just difference in Valuation...
1. If GRN is done in Legacy system, you will have to upload stock in SAP also
2. If Goods issue is done in Legacy system after you got the stock file, then you will also have to post Goods issue in SAP
The Qty uploaded should match between Legacy and SAP systemj... If the qty matches and difference is in value, you will have to decide which value is final i.e. Legacy value or SAP value.... Accordingly, you will have to pass a JV in Legacy system (If SAP value is Final) or in SAP system (If legacy value is final)

Can you tell me some differences between R2 and R3 systems?

Hi,
Can you tell me some differences between R2 and R3 systems?
I guess R2 is used only for mainframe systems some time back. But i dont know why we prefered R3 over R2.
Please clarify this!
Thanks,
Venkatesh.R.

SAP R/3 is
Client server
3 tier
Presentation
Application
Database
Relatively hardware and database independent
ABAP/4 applications runs on application servers.
Dispatcher, shared memory, gateway, work processes are major components of an application server.
SAP R/3 offers
Comprehensive suite of integrated applications meeting the needs of most business
Best practice process design
Ability to configure to
Industry sector
Unique business requirements
In a R/2 System - it is a 2 Tier System based on Mainframe Systems with Intelligent terminals
R/3 is based 3 tier Client Server architechture and supports the R/2 system as well.
R/3 Middleware -
Client server
Uses underlying relational databases
Oracle
SQL server
Ingress
Sybase
Its graphical user interface
Sap GUI
hence R/3 is preffered over R/2 systems because they support Client Server Architecture which is easily configurable,scalable and can integrate with ERP systems and integrate with SOA or Web based Apps.

Standard XML schema for Vendor data exchange between SAP and other system

Is there a SAP standard way of XML schema that we exchange between SAP and other system? Please let me know.
Thanks.

See SAP Interface Repository (http://ifr.sap.com).
My proposal is to leave old SAP connectors staff and use SAP Exchange Infrastructure. There is a support of industry XML standards in XI 3.0 like xCBL.

Report - quantity and value difference between delivery and invoice?

Hello experts,
My client use u201EProof of deliveryu201D t-code: VLPOD. There is always quantity and value difference between delivery and invoice.
Do you know any report which will show this differences between delivery and invoice?
Best regards,
Maciej

Hi,
Note 867678 - Proof of delivery (POD), delivery and billing document will help you to understand POD flow.
You have the tcode VLPODF/VLPODL/VLPODA, but perhaps they will not help you. So, as the before note suggests you, you can use the tables VBFA, LIKP, LIPS, VBRK, VBRP, TVPOD and TVPODG to do your own report.
I hope this helps you

Key Configuration differences between SAP and ORACLE Financials

Hello,
After spending good 7 years in SAP related projects recently I started working in ORACLE Applications. I used to be an ORACLE programmer years back. To my surprise the same ORACLE Forms are still very much the heart of the ORACLE UI.
Then I thought what will be the key differences between ORACLE and SAP in terms of configuration elements. While I know a bunch of configuraion items in SAP , I am not sure about the same in ORACLE world. I am not even sure some of the configuration items that are available in SAP exists in ORACLE.
Does anyone know both sides of the coin ? The terminology and design ?
SAP has
Client,Company code, Business area, Functional Area, GL, Posting Key, Document Type.
I am trying to get the details of the equivalents of these in ORACLE.
Does anyone know it ?
For e.g , when you post to AP or AR in SAP , GL is updated automatically. In ORACLE you post to a AP Book or AR Book then Run a batch to move them to GL Book.
ORACLE uses SQLLoader to load data . You can write a PL SQL and update the tables directly, which is not the case in SAP. For dataloads and conversions, SAP uses BDC's ( though XI can be used but its slow).For ORACLE its the good old SQL and PlSQL combo.
What are the equivalents of the configuration elements in ORACLE world ?
Also what are the major differences between these two in terms of designing a financial system.
Does any one know ?

Genie,
I agree that a case is made on how well these two ERPs solve the day to day tasks before a company chooses one of these two. But my question is aimed at finance to begin with. You are going to need a general ledger for any company or government regardless of ERP. And how well you can drive the ledger to map your business is the key here.
The way ledger is built is around a business area ,company or country and is very tighly designed in SAP. I would like to know if there is any equivalent of the configuration items in ORACLE. I am more interested in terminology of ORACLE.
For example ,
SAP ====> ORACLE
GL ==> Book In ORACLE
Document Number ===> Invoice Number
Posting Period in SAP ==> Posting period In ORACLE
Most of the terms are finance terms , so they are common ( eg. an account number is an account number in ORACLE and SAP ) between two systems. I am interested in any specific thing that is available in ORACLE but not in SAP and vice verse.
thanks for the link you have provided.
Its very useful.

Acknowledgements between SAP and Webservices systems

Hi , I have integrated a SAP and legacy system ( with webservices ) . I woul dlike to know how i can enchance the integrations with acknowledgements . It would be nice if both the systems know what happened to their sent message. I have gone through the document 'how to handle IDOC acknowledgements' . It only talks about sender and receiver systems being sap systems.
Any design ideas with acknowledgements ? The Syncronous calls are fine cos they get back a response. I would like to know how to deal with IDOC acknowledgemnts and the response from the webservice interface.
Thank you
Sudheer

>>It only talks about sender and receiver systems being sap systems.
No it doesn't talks only about SAP-SAP system.
the last section(i guess last 2-3 pages) explain acknowledgment in case of legacy-SAP system
Please check the last section of that .pdf
Thanx

Adjustment of inventory between SAP and Legacy system

Hi Gurus,
Here is the scenario:
1) One plant within a company code is in SAP and the other plant in a same company code is still in legacy. Since both of them are Not in SAP, I cannot do an STO. But, ROH materials need to be moved from the legacy plant to the plant in SAP. I cannot treat the legacy plant as a Vendor, since we are Not paying them. But, still, we should make sure that the inventory needs to be devaulated by the monetary value of the goods taken out and the other inventory (plant in SAP) needs to be enriched by such monetary value.
2) Similar situation as above, but between 2 Company Codes of same controlling area. Here one Company Code is in SAP, other is in legacy, but, when the other company code will be in SAP, it will be under same controlling area. The two companies are under one business. Some type of intercompany transfer (netting) needs to be done. Here, I have to treat the legacy company as a Vendor.(but modifying bank details)
I understand, that it may not be possible in standard SAP, but what type of custom developments should I put up ? Any type of custom movement types? How should I set up the Vendor Master (in case of second scenario, the bank details to involve the netting thing).
Any type of information is very valuable and I would be indeed very grateful.
Thanks,
Kumar

For requirement 1, I suggest you keep track of the inventory acct for legacy and SAP system as separate acct to simplify reconciliation. Once this is done, you can use transaction MB1C movement 561 (or a copy of this movement type). This movement allows you to enter transaction amount in local currency as well; if this is not available, you can customize this through configuration for field selection of movement type (OMJJ). So through this posting, you can enter corresponding material, plant, quantity, and transaction amount that's passed from legacy system. In the account determination, you can set the opposite entry for inventory acct as the inventory acct from legacy system.
You can then setup an interface that periodically extract GI txn on legacy system, and another interface that performs BDC or call transaction on movement 561 (or a copy of this movement) on SAP system

Timing difference between Macbook and WIndows system

I uses a web content management system for my website which was developed in windows, IE and firefox compatible. I notice that if I open up the website in a Macbook Pro, the system time is always 8 hours ahead of Singapore time although the Macbook time settings is set locally. I use firefox, safari, IE5, same result. Which means whatever contents I saved only appears 8 hours later. I use Windows IE or firefox and it works just fine. I don't think is the CMS system problem. I thought it might just be on this Macbook, I got someone to try it out using another Macbook, same result, 8 hours ahead. So it it something about the Macbook settings?
na Windows XP Pro

Hi Keonigt,
There are definitely hardware differences between the MacBook and its bigger sibling the MacBook Pro. You pointed out the first difference of screen sizes. Another perhaps obvious difference is the MacBook Pro's external construction is aluminum as opposed to "plastic". Another difference which may affect performance is that the MacBook Pro utilizes dedicated Video RAM as opposed to the MacBook's sharing it's VRAM with its RAM. This will affect gaming and other graphic intensive applications.
Depending on your needs and objectives - these differences will affect your decision. Of course, both are fantastic machines.
Good luck.

The interface between SAP and Banking system

Hi gurus,
Now we want to integrate SAP system and Banking system.I have some questions need to ask you.
First, do we have any PI Content regarding that?I failed to find any content in service market
Second,which kind of adapter techniques I can choose to configure?
Currently I think the possible solution may be as follows:
1. Create custom ABAP program to generate txt files,then use XI FTP adapter to translate those files to another location,where banking system can dispose accordingly.
2. The similiar techniques as 1,but to use ABAP proxy on SAP side.Through this way no txt files are generated,so it's more secure.
3. Using idoc techniques.I'm very interested in that,but can we implement this scenario by using idoc?How?
Any info or tips regarding banking data integration will be appreciated.

When it comes to functional view,do you know what kind of data need be tranlated?
This is again something that only the Bank can answer. There are many standards which are in use with various banks. e.g some banks use EDI for all types of processes. You have to confirm from the bank about the format in any case. It is also possible that the bank uses proprietary format. You may use both file or jdbc adapter.
it seems XI supports FTPS protocal, right?
Correct
But some files may be need to be installed on WAS.

Synchronization between SAP and Legacy system for Equipment Master

Hello Experts
We are moving Equipment master from our legacy system to SAP system using LSMW direct input. After moving the data into SAP, legacy system will be there for a while like 6 month or a Year. So we need to setup a process which can sync Equipment data back into SAP for this period on daily basis. What would be the best method for doing this synch on daily basis??
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance
-Harkamal

One method is to create a report which will select all the new entries created and create a file with the decided fields and send it to the legacy application.You can schedule this report to run every day or based on the freequency both parties agree.In the program store the last run date of the program in TVARVC table and pick up the equipment master records created after the last run date,
so that the program sends only new records every timr.
If you have XI/PI in your landscape , depending on the capabilities of this legacy system you can change this file into inserting the data into a JDBC table , web service etc

Material Value difference between FI and MM

Dear Experts,
The balance of perticular material not matiching with my FI gl balance (MC.9 and FBL3N). I am getting FI balance from FBL3N amd sort it by the meterial.
Now how I reconcile the difference amount.
Sourav
FICO Consultant

Dear:
We once faced the same issue and were manged to resolve it. We first sorted all GLs in which postings are routed through MM. No direct entry is allowed in these GLs. Documents types are set by default e.g WE for good receipts e.t.c. Then we executed these GLs in FS04 to track the changes made in their GL master for checking post automatically tick removal . We found some GLs in which post automatically tick was removed for sometime and some manual adjustment were posted into them by CO module. If you find any such changes in GL master record ,then select these GLs and execute them in FBL3N , look for any abnormal posting with different document type like SA e.t.c. In this way you can do the reconciliation between material ledger and FI ledger.

Hi Friends ....Difference between SAP memory and ABAP memory

Hi Friends,
I faced a interview and they ask this question
What is the difference between SAP Memory and ABAP memory..

conti
SAP Memory
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters can be set either for a particular user or for a particular program using the SET PARAMETER statement.
Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement. The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens.
ABAP Memory
ABAP memory is a memory area that all ABAP programs within the same internal session can access using the EXPORT and IMPORT statements. Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data to a program which you are calling, the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made. The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program. The program called can then read from the ABAP memory. If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse.
A simple example of ABAP memory is using the EXPORT/IMPORT statements.
Here in this program, I get the data, export it to memory,
clear out the internal table in my progam, then reimport the data into it and write out the data.
You probably wounldn't do this in a normal program,
but this is how you can pass data from program a to program b when A Submits program B.
report zxy_0002 .
data: it001 type table of t001 with header line.
select * into table it001 from t001.
export it001 = it001 to memory id 'ZXY_TEST'.
clear it001. refresh it001.
import it001 = it001 from memory id 'ZXY_TEST'.
loop at it001.
write:/ it001-bukrs, it001-butxt.
endloop.
SAP Memory
SAP memory is a memory area to which all main sessions within a SAPgui have access.
You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session,
or to pass data from one session to another.
Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters).
These parameters can be set either for a particular user
or for a particular program using the SET PARAMETER statement.
Other ABAP programs can then retrieve the set parameters using the GET PARAMETER statement.
The most frequent use of SPA/GPA parameters is to fill input fields on screens
ABAP/4 Memory
ABAP memory is a memory area that all ABAP programs within the same internal session can access
using the EXPORT and IMPORT statements.
Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data
to a program which you are calling,
the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made.
The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program.
The program called can then read from the ABAP memory.
If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse.
SAP memory
The SAP memory, otherwise known as the global memory,
is available to a user during the entire duration of a terminal session.
Its contents are retained across transaction boundaries as well as external and internal sessions.
The SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETER statements allow you to write to, or read from, the SAP memory.
ABAP/4 memory
The contents of the ABAP/4 memory are retained only during the lifetime of an external session
(see also Organization of Modularization Units).
You can retain or pass data across internal sessions.
The EXPORT TO MEMORY and IMPORT FROM MEMORY statements allow you to write data to, or read data from, the ABAP memory.

Integration between SAP server & External System

Dear all,
would you explain the pros and cons of integration between SAP and external system. what types issue i can face on SAP and external system respectively.
regards,
diya

Hi,
I don't know what is a COSMOS system and I don't know your company....
You will never get meaningful answers on an internet forum for questions so dependent on your specific environement and requirements. If you know your ECC6 system, then read the COSMOS documentation and ask the COSMOS vendor.

What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product

HI Friends
What is difference between SAP R3 And SAP IS Mills Product
What are the futures are availables in IS MIlls
Regards

Hi,
SAP R/3 is the central enterprise version. It is not specifically designed for any inducstry sectors and it can cater many of the industry types.
Is is developed for specific industries an for SMB's (small and medium business). It will have components specifically for the industry.
The SAP Mill Products component adds sector-specific functionality to an ERP system to satisfy the complex requirements of mill industries (e.g. metal, wood, paper, textiles, construction materials, and cable sectors).
These industry segments differ from others primarily in that the materials used have a large number of characteristics and variants. The materials in the segments listed above are also predominantly area-based (e.g. paper, textiles, plastic film) or length-based (e.g. cables, piping). Account must be taken of these material characteristics throughout the entire supply chain.
To cater for the particularities of these industry segments, SAP Mill Products features processes and functions that cover the entire supply-chain cycle from product design and configuration, through planning, order processing, capacity planning and production, to final delivery. Additional functions are available in costing and inventory management. SAP Mill Products are also integrated into Quality Management, Financial Accounting, and Controlling.
