Log_MM_SIT - cross company cross controlling area

We have a scenario where we would want to implement the SIT enhancement between :
1. Company A under controlling area A with ML activated
2. Company B under controlling area B with ML activated
Is it possible to use the LOG_MM_SILT functionality across two controlling areas ?
Thanks
Sanjeev

Hi Sanjeev
Refer to the link below for the Business Function LOG_MM_SILT
MM, Stock in Transit and Actual Costing - Business Functions (SAP Enhancement Package 5 for SAP ERP 6.0) - SAP Library
In this link, in the opening para it states "This business function allows you to control goods movements both for sales to external customers and for stock transfer processes between plants belonging to the same or different company codes within the same company"
So going with this statement, even if company codes are assigned to different controlling areas, yet if they are assigned to same Company in OX16, then you can use the above Business Function.
So to answer to your query, Yes, it is possible
Hope the above information is useful
Regards

  • Changing company code - controlling area assignment

    Hi
    For one of our company code  controlling area set up is "Controlling area same as company code"_ and the currency type 10 i.e. company code currency.  We are unable to assign another company code to contolling area because of the current set.
    I would like to know whether there will be any impact if I change the set up to "Cross company-code cost accounting" and currency type to 30.
    Thanks

  • Changing controlling area from single company code to cross company code

    Hi,
    Due to my client requirement, in the middle of the year, we need to change the controlling area from being same as company code to cross company code controlling area. Although the currency is same. We are going to create a new company code. Is the changing controlling area settings possible to do? what are the precautions and changes need to be taken?
    One more question, we need to change the company code when the new company code is created in the system in Cost Center Masters in the middle of the year. Is this possible after changing controlling area from single company code to cross company code. Right now company code is not appearing in the cost center master.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,
          If both companies having transaction data its not possible,Normally before defining Organisational Strucutre only we have to deside both companies is assigning same controlling are or have to maitain separately for this we have to compare the Fiscal year,Operating chart of accounts ,if both having same then we will assign both the company codes to one controlling area if these two companies having different currencies also its not a problem.When we creating Controlling Area we have to choose option of controlling area as same company code (if one company code one controlling Area) for example if you assigning two companies then we have to use cross company code cost accounting.If u need any further information let me know.

  • Cross co. code controlling area - CO Real time integration with FI

    Hi all of you,
    We are in to New GL, and implementing one controlling area for all the company codes (cross company code cost accounting) with group currency  "30". And my client requires the CO - FI Real time integration to take the segment reporting / profit center (new) FI reporting.
    My basic doubt is, when we are implementing one CO area, we taking all the company codes as cost center groupings and creating the overhead cost centers. When doing Repost CO line items in CO, how system arrives the company code since we are not referring the FI document or Company code, how system will create the FI document in the company code.
    Do we have any separate transaction to do the repost CO line items to hit the CO - FI real time integration?
    Please give me your valuable suggestions to use the CO-FI real time integration with cross controlling area assigned to multiple company codes.
    Thanks & Regards
    Ramki

    Thanks for your valuable reply Mr. Christian.
    So you mean to say that, when we are maintaining the cost center groupings (per company code), same will be maintained for profit center and will be assigned to the individual company codes, right.
    In CO - FI real time integration , I need to select the objects - company code and segment. Whenever any repost happened in the CO module, system will create one FI document referring to the real time objects. We have more than 12 company codes located in different countries. In this way, system is fulfilling the cross company code postings in CO and will generate the FI documents, right.
    Please give me your valuable suggestion and when I am looking the note in Market place (91055), it is showing the CAD Interface.
    Regards

  • 2 Controlling areas - Intercompany postings

    Hello Experts,
    Our client is looking at the possibility of having more than One Controlling area and Chart of Accounts. Say for instance, the Production Plants are in different Controlling area and using different COA, whereas the Sales companies located in different countries having a Separate Controlling area and Chart of accounts.
    I do certainly understand that the system will be very very complex. However, we would like to know if there would be any issues while doing Intercompany transactions like delivering from Production plants to Sales companies / Delivery directly to the customers located in sales company's country.
    I came across some write ups saying Cross controlling area costing is not possible.. But would that restrict the Intercompany billing as well?
    I do not understand this clearly. Can anyone please explain the Pros and Cons of following the above Org structure.
    Thanks
    Prasad

    Hi
    I dont have any doc as such.. But, it will be the usual inter co billing scenario which I am sure, your SD guy would be aware of.. there is no spl process for your case..
    In Inter co scenario, you have 2 choices
    1. To follow the sale-purchase route
    2. To use an inter company STO
    in (1), you create SO in seling company and PO in purchasing company... Using IDOCS it can be automated... I am not detailing it here
    (1) is used when the Material No is not same in both the companies.... Another drawback of this is that you cannot see Stock in Transit when your goods have been despatched from A but have not reached B
    (2) is used when Mat No is same in both the companies... Adv is that you get to see stock in transit till the time B posts Goods receipt in his system
    The no of transactions are also less in this case
    I personally prefer (2)... Your SD/MM guys wud be aware of both.. I guess you should not worry on that front

  • Posting Across Controlling Areas

    Hi,
    We have 3 Controlling Areas for 3 geographical regions. US, EU and APAC. However, now we want to move the valuated stock items from one plant in the US region to another plant in EU region. Obviously we do have some cost associated with these materails and also, some transportation costs as well. Do we know how we can get this sorted out in SAP please. SAP OSS note clearly says that the cross-controlling area posting in SAP is not supported.
    Any inputs please, always appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Subash Krishna

    Hi,
    I am not sure what you meant by that. I have 4 controlling areas linked to the same operating concern. The movement of valuated materials with their transport charges is between regions (Each region has separate controlling area). Somewhere on one OSS note we read that SAP does not support cross-controlling area posting as it is against the normal design of the SAP system. Are you saying that the derivation in CO-PA would help to get over this limitation?
    Please could you throw some more light on this issue?
    Thank you,

  • Profit center assign in Copany code and controling Area

    where Profit center assign in Copany code and controling Area ?

    Hi,
    Company code, Controlling Area, Profit centre, Cost centres are created by FI/CO functionals.
    Pl. discuss with your FI/CO counterpart.
    My suggestion is that, don't create yourself, because it integrates to lot of other areas.
    Just for learning purpose, you can go to SPRO-Controlling-Profit centre accounting.

  • Controlling area does not exist in assignment ?

    Hi,
    I've created & assinged controlling area to the company code , But then When I used PPOME to create org unit and assign the Controlling area , It did not exist in the list ? How can i configure this
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Check in V_TKA01_GD table (assign company code to controlling area) whether controlling area is assigned to company code properly or not. If it is assigned properly then in PPOME Tcode in Account Assignment tab once you enter your company code Controlling area will be selected automatically.
    If controlling area is not assigned to company code properly then you will not able to see that in PPOME. In this case you can take help from FI consultant as they only create Controlling area and assign it to company code.

  • Can We Two Different Credit Control Area to 1 company code using cross comp

    Can We Two Different Credit Control Area to 1 company code using cross company code assignment.Tried but giving error at the time of bill release.Experts Can you help?

    Hi,
    It is not possible to have more than one credit  control are for a single company code.

  • Restrict cross CO area postings and allow cross company code postings

    " There are two Controlling areas CA01 and CA02, for the controlling area CA02 the field CO code validation is inactive to allow cross company code postings ie., (Cost center created in one company code can be used as cost object in other company code ) Also this allows any WBS element created in controlling area CA01 as cost object in any of the company codes assigned in controlling area CA02,
    Due to usage of WBS element which is created in CA01 controlling area as cost object in company code belongs to controlling area CA02, business is facing problem while doing the settlement run with error message " Document data for list of origins does not exist"
    So, I have activated the field Co code validation in the controlling area CA02, which stopped the usage of WBS element between controlling areas. Also this had restricted usage of cost object between company codes with in controlling area CA02.
    Now is there anyway to allow cost object usage between company codes assigned in one controlling area (CA02) and restrict usage of WBS element created in controlling area CA01 in any company code assigned in controlling area CA02.

    Hi,
    As you have already activated the Co Code validation you cant restrict that only to WBS. But you can have another option
    Use the validation process to restrict these errors
    This may help

  • Cross company codes CO area

    Hi,
    What are the pre-requisites to be taken care seriously for a setup where more than one company codes will be assigned to a single controlling area (business in europe and India). The assigned company codes will have different currency and different fiscal varinat. One company code in europe so it has Jan to dec month in fiscal year with 12 posting periods. Other one (Indian business) has Apr- march (next year) in fiscal year variant with 13 posting period.
    Thanks

    Hi
    In addition to the points highlighted above, I would like to highlight a few points/gaps
    1. Asset closing is linked to Leading Ledger only.. You wont be able to perform any closing for the parallel ledger
    2. If you plan to do LTP, you will face challenges... At one time, you can do LTP for one company code only... OMIK settings dont allow multiple company codes as the option.. I have also raised a development request with SAP a couple of years ago for this
    3. With regards to planning in CO module - If you choose single controlling area, One of your companies will have to adopt the planning period as per the other company i.e. Either the Indian company will have to adopt Jan-Dec as planning period OR the European company will have to adopt Apr-Mar...Because, Planning in CO happens purely at the controlling area level
    4. Period control in CO is also at Controlling area level and not company code..
    5. If controlling area currency and comp code currency is different, you face challenges in using IM module as well... I dont recollect this very strongly, as I faced this problem a long time back
    My personal choice is to have a separate controlling area when your geographies are different and fiscal year is different...Though the new functionalities of New GL and Parallel ledger are popularized enough, but one needs to look at the flip side of the same as well
    Having separare controlling area gives you the flexibility and I dont see any drawbacks of it... You can very well draw the reports together because all report painter/BW reports allow you to customize the reports as you wish

  • Company code Vs controlling area.

    Hi Friends,
    Please let me know if i can assign one company code to multiple controlling areas.
    If no how do i know which company code aviliable to assign.
    Regards,
    krishna.

    Hi,
    It is not possible.
    CONTROLLING AREA:Controlling Area is a Organizational unit that represents a closed system for Cost Accounting purpose.
    To this purpose you need to maintain Controlling Area. To this Controlling Area you need to activate the components of
    Controlling for a fiscal year.          
    To this Controlling are you have to assign your Company Code. A Controlling Area may be used 2 or more Company Codes.
    That is called CROSS COMPANY CODE COST A/C. If you are using common Controlling Area for 2 or more Company Codes then you
    need to maintain consistency of the following.I.     
      CHART OF A/C                : must be same for all Company Codes.II.    
    FISCAL YEAR                  : must be same for all Company Codes.III.   
    PERIOD & CLOSING              : must be done at the same time.
    currency                      : it may be different.   
    for one controlling area you can maintain multiple Company Codes but for one Company code you can maintain only one
    controlling area.
    let me know if u need more information.

  • Company code problem in Controlling area Tcodes

    Hi All,
    We are following role based authorisation for creating roles for FI/CO module and we are seggregating roles as per the company codes.We are assigning Tcodes like KO01,KO02,KO03(Internal order) and KS01,KS02,KS03(cost center) which are connected with Controlling area in one role.We have 5 company codes and we are trying to create 5 roles with the above Tcodes for 5 different company codes.
    The problem we encountered is when we entered the Tcodes in the role, and we get to the 'Change authrisation data' option in the 'Authorisation' tab in PFCG, the system is not prompting for the Company code organisational level. Hence in this case, a user will be able to access the above mentined Tcodes for all the company codes. But we need to create a role in such a way that a user who is assigned this role is only able to access Tcode like KO01,02,03 etc for his company code only and should not be authorized to access these Tcodes for remaining 4 company codes.
    Can anybody please help me with a way to restrict these Tcodes to a particular company code in our scenario.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Abdul Khyoom A.

    Hi Ashok,
    Thanks for the response.
    Here in my case, when I insert the Tcodes related to conrolling like(KO01,KO02,KO03 etc) in a role, then I dont find any authorization objects(bukrs) which is related to the company code in the authorization genaration area in PFCG. So there is no way I can maintain values in them.
    Please suggest any alternate solution.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Abdul Khyoom A
