HI,
No, It is not possible. Even though u are doing STO process u need to mainatin two different plants. More you can not assign the same plant to two company codes.but u can assign more than one plant to one company code it is like N:1 relation ship..
Please create one more virtual plant for stock exchange for other company code. Because Material valuation will happen at plant level only..

One vendor for two company codes

Hi Frds,
I have two company codes and i create a vendor which is applicable to both the company code.Is it required for me to create separate Payable reconciliation GL account for each company codes or creation of one common recco account is enuf.
Please elaborate on this as am new to this..
Thanks,
Rashmi Ravi

Dear all,
SAP allows You to create a customer / vendor master data that contains information that is valid for all the Company code --> into General data.
Then there is a part, Company Code data, where You can define specific details for each Company Code.
The transaction is the same FD01 or FK01.
I hope this helps You.

Different Bank charges GL account for two company codes with same COA

Hi,
While configuring OBXK ( Automatic GL account for bank charges) , I see there is provision to enter only one GL account per chart of accounts.
We have two company codes using same chart of accounts but different bank charges GL account. Please tell me how to configure this.
Thanks,
suresh

Hi,
Thanks Krishnan and Chandra.
I agree with you it could be the same GL account for bank charges, but the business requirement is such that in one of the two company codes, bank charges are required to be tracked separately to be subsequently transferred to the other company code. This means two separate GL accounts are required for two company codes which needs to be configured in OBXK.
Hope this clarifies my query further.
thanks,
suresh

Same material master in two company codes with batch management

Hi,
There are two company codes in one client. In one batch management is already active. But in another company code batch management is not required. Is it possible to have batch management active in one company code and inactive in another company code where both the co. codes are in the same client? The same material master to be used in both company codes.
Thanks,
Satya.

Hi Satyabarata,
As far as you dont want to move the same materiel i.eStock Transfer with Inter comapy billing scenario then it will be fine.
If you try to Transfer a Batch manged material into a non batch manged CC it will work fine. But on the other hand when do via-versa the system will ask for the Batch information where the Batch management is active.
If you want to use same Material Master for both CC then its not advisable.
Please let me know if you need any other information.
Thx.

STO between two company codes

Hi,
we are doing the inter company process between two company codes.
i have one reference document,
1) how can we find the supplying plant sales area and receving plant sales area.
2)In spro settings "Assign sales organization - distribution channel u2013 plant" which one we need to assign here(supplying plant sales area or receving plant sales area).
3)In customer master record sales area tab which one we need to assign as a Delivering plant(supplying plant or receving plant)
please tell me anyone.
thanks,
pandu

Hi,
1. Are you referring to the config area of transaction area?
If config, then you can find the configured sales area of the supplying & receiving plant in IMG --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Set Up Stock Transport Order --> Define Shipping Data for Plants (here you assign the relevant sales area to the relevant Supplying Plant and the created Customer number (in XD01) to the Receiving Plant. Thise customer number is used in SD shipping processing to identify the ship-to party if provision has been made in Customizing for a stock transfer to be carried out with an SD delivery). This sales area is to subsequently trigger the shipping point (based on shipping point determination) for delivery.
You also assign the supplying plant to a vendor. To do this, from the SAP menu choose Logistics --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Master Data --> Vendor --> Purchasing --> Create; on the screen for purchasing data, choose Extras, and you assign the supplying plant here.
2. In the SPRO, you assign the Supplying Plant to the relevant sales organization and the distribution channel in IMG --> Enterprise Structure --> Assignment --> Sales and Distribution --> Assign Sales Organizationu2013Distribution Channel-Plant.
3. This is not required, as this delivery plant in the "Sales" tab is relevant when you create a Sales Order to automatically populate the delivery plant for the particular customer. For cross-company STO, the customer number is used to identify the ship-to-party to carry out the shipping processing. You would instead need to ensure that the shipping condition etc. in the customer are maintained properly for the shipping point determination.
Hope the above helps.
Thanks.

WBS for two company codes

Dear Experts,
This requirement is for an IT service project.
The process is - I have two company codes Comp code 1 & Comp code 2, In which Project is created in company code 1. Employees are assigned to project to onsite & offshore from company code 2. This means the employees are created in the company code 2. But working for the project in Comp.code 1. Comp code 2 get revenue thru intercompany billing based on number of hours/days the employee worked in the project created by the com. code 1. The employee books the timesheet in comp code 1 against the project id.
To acheive this
1) i need to maintain same project for two company codes?
2) Or same project, one wbs for one company code & other wbs for another company code?
Will the above two possible to work in SAP? or
anyother we i can workaround this
Please advise
Regards,
Deepu Pillai

Hi,
This is possible through Resouce Related billing in PS.
For e.g. Consider business scenario, where we have created T-10006 as a customer project.
Now this project is mapped using a work breakdown structure that contains activities.
The activities define the flow of the project and form a quantity structure for determining costs and payment data automatically.
The project cost plan is used to create quotations.
When the sales order is received, it is assigned to the project. This means that it can be used to plan revenue and then post this revenue.
Actual costs are entered when activities are confirmed, components are purchased and when invoices are assigned. Actual revenue is posted to the project by means of milestone billing.
Two companies are responsible for executing project T-10006.
Company 'A' is mapped using company code 1000 and performs all services except for those planned in WBS element T-10006.1.2.
Comapny 'B' is mapped using company code 2000 and performs some of the engineering services. (WBS element T-10006.1.2).
Here Comapny 'B' bills its services to Company 'A' on a resource-related basis.
A results analysis is carried out for the billing elements T-10006 und T-10006.1.2 in the project.
The results analysis values are settled to the profitability segment.

Automated Sale cycle within two company codes

Hi to all,
i have a requirement:
there are two company codes A and B. A transfer goods to B through sale/purchase cycle and B sells goods to the customer.How can the system be automated?
to be more specific:A sells goods to B which is intercomapny sales and B finally sells to customers.requirement is as soon as B generates delivery and billing ,automatic order delivery and billing should happen from A to B with different prices.
Waiting for the response.
thanks
Nakul

Hi,
you can solve this with 2 schedule agreements and douplicate of the idoc´s, if you work with idoc´s
or you can work from A to B with a purchasing and B to customer with a sales order.
For the second process, you can work with a message EDI into purchasing document, which create autom. the sales order for B. EDI-Type = ORDERS with type Orders05. Definition for WE20 must be logistic system.

One trial balance out of two company codes

Our clinet has two company codes in legacy system, now we are implimenting SAP.
In legacy system, company codes are combined into one overall trail balance. Once in SAP they will there be two separate LEu2019s. Will they be required to apply transfer pricing methodology for intercompany movements between themselves ?.
Please advise how to configure this?
How to have a one trial balance out of two company codes?

Please note you have a few questions - I would recommend a single post per question to make it easier for others to answer.
Please note - people will not share config guides or notes so you may want to ask a particular question around transfer pricing.
If you have 2 Company Codes in ERP 6, that have the same controlling Area, FSV you can produce trial balances for more than one company code by activating the new GL.
It seems your client is new to SAP, therefore the new GL will be activated as standard. The standard transaction F.01 allows for a single trial balance for 2 company codes, that have the same CoA, Controlling Area and currency.

Subcontracting b/n two company codes

Hi friends
i have caome across the subcontracting scenario which takes place between two company code with their respective plants, Please Provide best way to map the scenario
Thanks
Regards
Deepak.Goura
SAP-Consultant

Sub Contracting Cycle
(1) You have a material that can be procured externally, and you have maintained BOM with components. Any waste generated and received during subcontracting process can be maintained as component with negative quantity.
(2) You create a subcontracting PO (PO with Item Category L). You can also maintain Purchase Info Record for Subcontract category for material and subcontractor.
(3) You make a transfer posting to issue components for SC PO. Material is sent to subcontractor. As material remains under your ownership, system does not make any value entry. But quantity is shown as "Material Provided to Vendor"
(4) You receive finished material against SC-PO. You also specify components consumed in manufacturing of finished goods. Additionally, if you have negative components in BOM, now you'll also receive subcontracting by-products. There are three events, so three accounting entries are generated:
DR FG Stock/ SC By-Product Stock
CR Change in Stock (FG/ SC By-Product )
(for finished goods received)
DR Subcontracting Charges
CR GR/IR Clg
(for moneys payable to Subcontractor)
DR Consumption (Components)
CR Change in Stock (FG/ SC By-Product )
(material provided to Vendor is now charged to expense)
(5) You do the IV for SC Invoice, and the process is complete.
Process of Subcontract in MM
Sub-contract business process:
You want to buy material from the supplier (processed material/ assembled item) , but for some reason (quality of certain item / price ) you will give some component to vendor .
Vendor shall process the item / use the item provided & supply the final item.
SAP process:
1.Create the finished goods material code.
2.Maintain the BOM for the material.
3.Create PO with item category as "L" .
4.Issue material to vendor with movement type 541
5.Receive the material against the PO with movement type 101.
6.MIRO to account for vendor's invoice for the service charge& material used by him.
Can anybody tell me how a process has to be given to subcontracting?
Suppose, I have 3 operations 1)weaving 2)dyeing 3)cutting & packing
if no 2 process (i.e Dyeing) has to be given to subcontracting, what process should i follow ?
Vijay
The following process to be followed for subcontracting.
1. Item code(material master) to be created at the stage of before dyeing.
2. Item code(material master) to be created after Dyeing as subcontracted item.(F30)
3. Bill of material to becreated for the material(2) calling for material(1)
4. Inforecord and source list to be created for material(2) with the corresponding vendor
5. PO to be released for material (2)
6.Along with PO the material(1) to be issued to vendor
7.On receipt of material when GR is made the stock with vendor will get updated.
B.N.Rao
How to Create a Subcontract Order?
To create a subcontract order, proceed as follows:
Enter the material you want to order and the item category for subcontracting (L) in the order item.
Press ENTER to display the screen for component processing.
Enter the components that the vendor requires to manufacture the product.
Please note:
You do not need to enter the date required for the components. This date is proposed by the system when you press ENTER.
It is calculated as follows:
Delivery date of the item - Planned delivery time
If you do not want the quantity of the components to be changed if the order quantity of the end product is altered, set the indicator Fixed quantity (column F).
You can determine whether the components are available on the date required by selecting Edit -> Availability check.
If you entered a bill of material as the material in the subcontract order, the components are created automatically.
If you want to determine the components in the bill of material at a later date (for example, if the bill of material is subsequently changed), choose Item -> Component -> New BOM explosion. The existing components are deleted and redetermined in the bill of material.
Save the purchase order.
When you print the purchase order, the components are printed per order item
Subcontracting - Key Points
Special Procurement Process.
Item category: L
Order type: NB
In info record vendor should be maintained as subcontractor.
Vendor (Subcontractor) receives the components used to manufacture a finished product directly from your company or through third party.
Your company should place a purchase order for the finished product. In this manually you can enter the required individual components or it can be determined via the explosion of BOM (if exists).
Stock check at vendor level: ME2O
Company stock check: MMBE
GR for individual components through movement type: 501 or 561 (if with out PO or without reference).
GI to subcontracting vendor: through movement type 541.
GR from sub contracting vendor: through movement type: 101
Movement type 543 is displayed to cancel the material cost account.
If the subcontracting order has to be generated through materials planning,the special procurement key has to be set in MRP 2 screen.

Editor Note:
- To create the Subcon Info Record : Tcode ME11 - Info Category - Click Subcontracting
- To create Material BOM : Tcode CS01
- With the Info and Material Setup, you can then create the Purchase Order in Tcode ME21N

Subcontracting- with two company codes.

Hi PP Gurus,
We got two company codes say company code 1000 and company code 1100. We're having plants 4000 in company code 1000 and 5000 in company code 1100. Manufacturing of all SFG and FG take place at plant 5000 in company code 1100.
Now the requirement is all Raw materials are supplied from plant 4000 in company code 1000 to plant 5000 in company code 1100.
Client want all the RM cost to be captured in company code 1000 and plant 5000 will only invoice for Services that are utilized for manufacturing....
How could we map this scenario? Either through making BOM and Routing in both plants 4000 and 5000. and in Routing of plant 4000 need to activate operation subcontracting and material to be supplied to plant 5000 and latter service cost to be captured through Service entry sheet. OR MRP area or Special prcurement key to be configured in plant 5000 to suffice the requirement?
Please reply with your prompt comments.
Thanks and Regards,
Abu Arbab

Hi,
This you can handle through the special procurement. Both the plants you need to maintain the material master. In Plant 4000 is your supplying plant. In plant 4000 the raw materials you need to maintain as external procurement. Plant 5000 you need to maintain this materials as special procurement as withdrawal from alternate plant. Since your production plant is 5000, you need to maintain the BOM in this plant. In Plant 4000 you need not maintain the BOM. When you run MRP in plant 5000, the planned orders will be created in Plant 4000. This you can see in MD04 screen as planning plant as 5000. But the planned order number will be same in both the plants.

Production order on two company code

I have two company code A110, plant p110 and A111, plant P111.
My requirement: I want planned order in P110, production order in P111, goods receipt in P110, goods issue to plant P111.
I setup material code 200201 for both plant, in plant A110, I use special production, receiving plant A111. besides this, what should be configured to meet with my requirement, thanks

SivKumr,
First, a technical question. You mention A110 and A111 as company codes in the first statement, then you mention them as plants in the second statement. Can you elaborate?
Actually I don't know what you want from us, you haven't mentioned yet what your problem is. Exactly what do you want to happen that currently does not happen?.
In your original statement you have described your desired solution, which I must say is...ah....odd. How about also enlightening us with a statement of your business requirements? I personally am at a loss to conceive of any business reasons why a company would wish to implement such a solution.
You might also want to refer to SAP help, to see what special planning processes are available.

Will there be any authorisation issues (ie getting the information of other company code date) in Co reports (z reports, standard reports, report painter)?
Any thoughts on this is helpful for me.
Thanks

Can I create a single PO for two company codes

Hi
Can I create a single PO for two company codes. Though I know that Company code is assigned at header level but still I know there is a setting in controlling which when activated two company codes under same controlling area can procure the goods under the same PO.But i forget from where to activate that message or control in config.
Thanks

Hi Lekhram,
I'm just beginner so maybe I got the wrong end of the stick.
If you order something that something must belong to a definite company > plant. How could possess two company the same thing at the same time (totally)?
(companies are at the same organisational level - none of them is subject to the other).
Maybe I'm mistaken.
So I <b>guess</b> you can use only one company code for one PO.
Controlling area & company code
