Hi,
Acccording to the code of the message, it's a user-defined one. Therefore, you should check your settings. Most probably, you have activated user-exit for accounts master data (SAPMF02H enhancement).

How to identify mandatory fields while using an idoc

Hi
I am new to Idocs. I want to find out the mandatory fields in the segments that are used in an Idoc.
Please help.
Regards,
Lohitha

Hi Lohitha,
I dont think there is a straight forward/documented way of knowing a mandatory field within a segment, however you can use WE30 or WE60 to identify the mandatory segments in an IDOC.
I guess you will have to use common knowledge of the requirement to know/identify a field that might be mandatory. For Ex: when you are creating an ITEM on a SO, Material is mandatory etc

Group Chart of Account Template

Dear Friends,
I want to create a template for Group Chart of Account, Operating Chart of Account and Company Code Chart of Account.
In that I have a fields related to Operating chart of account only thing is how to find the fields related to Group Chart of account.
I want to use this field to develop a auto creation of GL account.
Please help me to prepare the template related to Group Chart of Account.
Thanks and regards,
Dev Mahendra

Hello,
There are three chart of accounts will be there in the system.
1. Operating Chart of Account - for day to day activities
2. Group Chart of Account - for group reporting
3. Country Chart of Account - for legal reporting in the country
Any chart of account is a chart of account. Every chart of account irrespective of operating or group or country chart of account will have two segments.
1. Chart of Account Segment
2. Company Code Segment
Both the segments can be created through FS00.
You have create a recording through LSMW and create each chart of account.
Refer the following link for LSMW
www.scmexpertonline.com/downloads/SCM_LSMW_StepsOnWeb.doc
Before uploading data thorugh LSMW, create chart of account names in OB13.
If you assign group chart of account to operating chart of account in OB13, Group account field will appear in GL account of operating chart of account.

Ravi

Group Chart of Accounts Mainly Used for Consolidation Purpose,
Follow the Following Procedure for Config Group Chart of Accounts,
1) First Create Group Chart of Accounts in T.Code:OB13

Impact of activing Group Chart of Account alone

Dear Experts,
What if i just active group chart of account and without enabling the whole consolidation funciton, what potential impact i might get?
Thanks for any advices!

Sophie

Hi,
Consolidation function is a total different set of activiteis. Consolidation is generally done by using ec-cs on different instance with the use of BI folowing the set of procedures.
If you just activate the group chart of account you need to give respective account number while defining the Operating COA. With the help of this you can create FSV & different reports based on accounts & FSV on group coa level.

Posting in group chart of accounts

Hello,
I have assigned a group of chart of accounts to my operating chart of accounts and mapped the group GL account number in the operating GL account master.
All the doc types and number ranges are duly defined and assigned.
MY issue is when I post to GL account(in op.chart of accounts) the entry is not posted to group account.
So my question is doesn't the posting happen automatically to the group account when entry is posted to the GL in op.chart of accounts or should I run any programme to consolidate or is there any config steps I missed ?
Anil

Hi,
Group Chart of accounts or Country Chart of accounts will never have separate postings to GL.
These are for reporting purpose only.
If you mapped your group account number / country account number with the operational GL account number, then you use use them in GL balances reporting only.
Ex: While running S_ALR_87012279 - Structured Account Balances, you need to enter a chart of accounts in the selection screen. So here if you enter the group chart of accounts key, then the report will replace the operational GL account number with group account number in the output. Same will be appilicable in case of country chart of accounts are used.
This will clear your doubt.
Thanks,
Srinu

Group Chart of Account Reports

Dear expert,
I am trying to generate some Trial Balance report based on Group Chart of Accounts, but couldn't find any that works.
Example,
company code 1000 is assigned to CoA = INT and Group CoA =CONS.
When I generate Balances report based on CONS, it said " company code 1000 is incompatible with CONS".
Hence, would like to get advse how you guys generate balances report for Group chart of account using standard report. Or what other method available?
Thanks.

Dear Ruksana,
This is a standard report, I do not expect many errors. Meanwhile, please let me know what is the error message number you are getting.
The selection criteria would be:
Chart of Accounts : Enter your Group COA
Company Codes: Enter your company codes
Financial Statement Version : Enter the FSV
Reporting Year : Usually current fiscal year
Reporting Periods : 1 to 16
Comparison Year : Usually Previous fiscal year
Comparison Periods : 1 to 16
Keep other parameters as usual.
Hopefully, this should give the results.

Ravi

Issue with Group Chart of Accounts

HI All,
Good Morning. I have 2 Comp Codes, using different Chart of Accounts and have 0001 as Group Chart of Accounts. When I try to create GL Account in One Comp Code, giving Group Account Number, I am getting the below error.
"Corporate Group Accounting 200121 not defined in Group Chart of Accounts"
What I have done was that during creation of COAs for the above 2 Comp Codes, I have assigned Group Chart of Accounts 0001 to them.
Pls let me know if any configuration was missed out.
Niranjan

HI Murali,
I have done so. I have created G COA and Op COA and assigned G COA in Op COA in OB13.
During GL Creation, I have assigned G COA GL as well.
Any Configuration steps, Still I need to do?

Group chart of accounts

Hello friends,
Can anyone throw some light on this pretty small topic?
what is group chart of accounts?
what is the minimum configuration for the same?
i have a small issue..
my client is in US and is using one chat of accounts..and their head office is using a different COA..in Korea
Now they want the FIn. Stmnt with those GL account numbers ..i.e korean COA...
please tell me some way to do the same..
regards

you can define alternative chart of account(CoA). And for each account (for ex. US account) you select respective Gl account from the alternative CoA. So when you run most of the reports later, you can choose (there is check-box "Alternative accounts") and this will show you the report with the alternative accounts.
The maintenance of the alternative CoA is the same as normal CoA. The only difference is that you set for each CoA or company code which is the alternatvice CoA. You can have only 1 alternative CoA.
Hopes I helped. (if so... reward my reply)

Alex

Query About a Group Chart of Account

Hello SAP Gurus,
My client has configured group Chart of Account for consolidation as well as keeping the GL code stucture uniform throughout the Global company codes. However, in OBY3 I can see that the same COA has been assigned as "Group COA". Also to inform you that all the company codes around the world use the same COA as their operating COA. They are not using different COAs.
Please let me know how this is possible? Can the same COA is assigned as Group COA to itself? I think a separate COA is created as Group COA and assigned to this operating COA.
Please clarify my doubt.
Thanks in advance
Sagar

Hi sagar
i will tell you how the group COA works.
suppose you have 2 company codes and you maintain same chart of account for both company codes. for consolidation you will have to maintain a group COA as your company is doing already.
now we maintain same account group and numbers too but for group COA and operational COA for option 1 as i said..
now there is a configuration we do
see fin a/c -
> prepration for consolidation -
> general specification ..
thus for fetching consolidated data in the f.01 we give the global COA nd the FSV maintained for the same..
see whether your company is following this procedure if not then ask the end users how they fetch the consolidated data?
what process they follow.
regards
Rohit

Hi,
1. chart of accounts--> common set of accounts.
2. Group of acts--> group chart of acts.
Generally we use common set of acts.
For common set of A/c-->OB13.
For A/C groups>OBD4>new entries> give your chart of A/C, A/C group, name, from A/C and to A/c> SAVE.
Assigning company code to chart of accounts-->OB62.
Thanks.
