OKP1 - period lock on company code level

Hi all,
I wonder if anybody can help me with this issue.
Is there an alternative transaction (or any other way) to OKP1 for locking period only on company code level?
In standard, OKP1 locks on controlling area level.
The only way which comes on my mind is to set a new validation rule.
Thanks a lot
Regards
Peter

Hello Peter,
we are very interested in this issue.
For our project we also plan to have an assignment from 7 company codes to one controlling area and we also want to control the closing by company code.
Now we read your thread about this issue and try to work out how you have designed the validation step (OKC7) to check if one business transaction is only allowed for postings in a single/specific company code at the time.
We are looking forward to your reply!!
Kind regards
Udo

  • CO-period lock for planning on company code level

    Hello,
    I would like to ask you for assistence.
    We would like to have the possiblity to lock the CO-periods on company code levels. For actual values, it is possible to arrange this within the validation. However, for plan values the validation is not active.
    I have read about possibility to enhance an user exit for paritcular planning transactions (KP06, KP26 etc.), but I can't find it anymore.
    Does anybody from you have experience with this, eventually is there another option?
    Thanks in advance
    Peter

    I have had a similiar problem and contact to remote consulting from SAP. They offered a modification (10-15 days if I remember correctly) to make CO period lock company code depending.
    If I remember correctly, his name was Valentin (in Germany).
    However: if newGL is active with real-time integration and also plan transfer, I think it should be possible to lock in FI.

  • Material Ledger activation at Company Code Level

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement where Material Ledger need to be activated at Company level and not at single Plant Level. We are about to implement ML and would like to have periodic unit price calculated at company code level  (e.g. 1 material, 4 plants, 1 company = 1 periodic unit price).
    I went through the customization , it only refers to Plant level (Valuation area level)
    Could anybody throw light on this.
    Regards
    Barbara

    Hi,
    What is the valuation level?
    If the valuation is at plant level you can maintain different views at different plants of these company codes.
    If only name is different i think you would do better with the same material code, and if you still want to differentiate please create two different materials

  • KPSI (RKNMABTC) on company code level

    Hello,
    I would like to ask, if somebody of you have already tried following:
    We would like to run the KPSI (Plan reconciliation / target = actual-IAA) on company code level. It is possible e.g. if create an appropriate cost center group. The problem is, that if the KPSI already runs for other company code, error message KI718 appears.
    Error message KI718: "Planning locked by user &1. User  is planning in controlling area XXXX, version XXX . Thus, plan reconciliation with update posting is not possible."
    That means, that it is not possible to run two or more parallel plan reconciliations, it they refer to the same controlling area and version.
    In my opinion this possibility should be offered by SAP, as you can have many companies within the same controlling area, which process their planning for their cost centers independet from the other companies.
    Can anybody of you offer some solution?
    Thanks in advance
    Peter

    Hi Greta
    My interest in this thread has increased, seeing you are from SAP
    Peter was not ref to KSPI, but to KPSI...
    The design of OMIK is such that, you can not execute LTP and KPSI for 2 company codes simultaneouly in all circumstances...
    You have to maintain the parameters in OMIK for one Plant, Run LTP, Delete the entry in OMIK and then again repeat the steps for 2nd company code.... You can refer the OSS msg 1015121 / 2008 that I raised to SAP and the Development Request (DR)  No that I provided earlier in my reply
    In My case, it was one Contr Area and 14 comp codes, so obviously, not possbile to run LTP for all of them at once....
    My only point is when SAP allows and recommends to have one contr area and multi company codes - Then all other transactions including OMIK should permit me to maintain the required parameters at both KOKRS and BUKRS level...
    I would be thankful if you can let me know any updates on the DR no that I mentioned
    Regards

  • F.01 & FBL3N amounts mismatched at Company Code Level

    Hello Gurus,
            At Client side, we are facing problem of mismatch in FBL3N & F.01 Report for some GL accounts and this is at Company Code level not Profit Center or Segment Level.
            I have also verified the Master Data of GLs which are having problem but these accounts master data are same as that of GL accounts having tallied amount in both reports, I have already check on all the posts as this is frequently asked Question but all the replies for those are not given proper solutions.
    Please suggest me for this Error.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rajdeep.

    Dear Randeep,
    If you are on profit center accounting ECC 6.0. Then Fbl3n cannot be matched with F.01( which runs on profit enter level).
    you need to match F.01 with FAGLL0(Zero)3. provide profit center in dynamic selection and give open item as on as per the period you have provided in F.01.
    This will certainly match.
    kindly provide points, This would solve your issue.

  • Classic profit centers reporting full b/s  below company code level

    Dear Experts,
    we are using classic profit center. How to get Profit center wise balance sheet below company code level.
    Facing issues for balance sheet GL accounts as at 3KEH one profit center i can choose...my requirement is to get 2 balance sheets for two profit centers.
    any suggestions ?
    Regards,
    Sekhar

    Hello Sekhar,
    With Classic profit center accounting correct balance sheet cannot be ensured at Profit center level.
    This is due to following reasons
    1. Vendor/ Customer line items -
    No assignment of Vendor/Customer recon accounts to Profit center in 3KEH.
    But in period end you have to execute F.5D and 1KEK to transfer this values to Profit center accounting based on the offsetting line items.
    This also might create problems if you don't clear the open items on period end as your Sales/Purchase will go to one Profit center and Payment will go to other (defaulted for Bank/Cash). Cleared items are not transferred
    Also, Transaction between Vendor and Customer will lead to some values posting in Dummy profit center.
    2. Asset line items
    Profit center will be determined by Asset master
    3. Tax accounts
    Mostly it has to go with Default Profit center. SAP has given option for re-determination of Tax line items profit center based on off-setting line items during period end (Tax account should be assigned to Dummy profit center in 3KEH). But this will work only for Sales/Purchase transaction, as payment will go to default profit center used for Cash/Bank. Again it might lead to confusion.
    4. Material accounts
    Profit center assigned in Material master is used.
    5. Other Balance sheet accounts
    These accounts like Bank, Cash, loan etc has to be assigned to default Profit centers using 3KEH. Else, user has to enter the correct Profit center during entry. If missed out, it will go to default profit center. Remember, balance sheet accounts not included in 3KEH (except for Vendor/Customer) will not be transferred to Profit center accounting itself.
    Hope it helps..
    Thanks & Regards,

    hi geeta,
    ClientA Client is the highest unit within an SAP system and contains Master records and Tables. Data entered at this level are valid for all company code data and organizational structures allowing for data consistency. User access and authorizations are assigned to each client created. Users must specify which client they are working in at the point of logon to the SAP system.
    A CompanyA Company is the unit to which your financial statements are created and can have one to many company codes assigned to it. A company is equivalent to your legal business organization. Consolidated financial statements are based on the companyu2019s financial statements. Companies are defined in configuration and assigned to company codes. Each company code must use the same COA( Chart of Accounts) and Fiscal Year. Also note that local currency for the company can be different.
    Company CodesCompany Codes are the smallest unit within your organizational structure and is used for internal and external reporting purposes. Company Codes are not optional within SAP and are required to be defined. Financial transactions are viewed at the company code level. Company Codes can be created for any business organization whether national or international. It is recommended that once a Company Code has been defined in Configuration with all the required settings then other company codes later created should be copied from the existing company code. You can then make changes as needed. This reduces repetitive input of information that does not change from company code to company code as well as eliminate the possibility of missed data input.
    Business Area Business Area is optional and is equivalent to a specific area of responsibility within your company or business segment. BA (Business Area) also allows for internal and external reporting.
    Another configuration requirement for set-up in SAP are the Basic settings consisting of the following:
    Chart of Accounts(COA)
    Fiscal Year Variants.
    Currencies
    The COA(Chart of Accounts)
    The COA(Chart of Accounts) lists all General Ledger accounts that are used by the organization. It is assigned in configuration to each company code and allows for daily General Ledger postings.
    Fiscal Year configuration
    Fiscal Year configuration is a must and can be defined to meet your companyu2019s reporting periods whether Fiscal (any period combination that is not calendar) or Calendar( Jan-Dec).
    Posting Periods are defined and assigned to the Fiscal Year.
    Within the periods you specify start dates and finished dates.
    SAP allows for 12 posting periods along with specially defined periods that can be used for year-end financial closing.

  • F.01 - extract to consolidation on company code level

    Hi everyone
    We're trying to do an extract to consolidation on company code level (1). When popup dialog "Filename for extraction file" appears we can choose between presentation server or application server.
    When choosing presentation server and logical filename ECCS_FILE we get error GC027 (Error opening file c:\temp\EXTRACT_CS_CO.txt).
    Doing so choosing application server however works (whereas path isn't the same).
    We already checked and double-checked settings of logical file name and logical path in transaction FILE.
    Any suggestions what to do or isn't it supposed to work via presentation server?
    Thanks in advance and best regards to all
    Renaud

    I have not seen anything that you have mentioned to enter file path?
    Is this being customised for your Company?
    How did you download this before?

  • Addition of a field in vendor master table at company code level

    Hi Champs,
    My requirement is to add a field in LFB1 table.
    I have added the field in the table using append structure, that was fine.
    I need to add the same for input/output on the screen 215 of program SAPMF02K (for the screen of Payment transaction Accounting at company code level).
    As far as I know there are only screen enhancements for Vendor master(no screen exits). The screen enhacements are  "Prepare Modification-Free Enhancement in Vendor Master Record". But using that i need to create a subscreen, but in my requirement I need to add the field on the same screen.
    Is there any solution for that???
    Please let me know if my doubt is not clear.
    Regards,
    Nishant

    Hi Krish,
    I am not able to find the screen exit for my requirement.There is only screen enhancement for Vendor master.If you have any idea of the same pls let me know.
    I am ok with the solution that i need to change in the standard screen using access key,  but do i need to code anything in the PAI or PBO of the screen or it will be taken care automatically. Details of the program and screen is already given.
    Thanks

  • Manage vendor bank account in company code level - Best practice

    hi,
    we have on our client several company codes, and we are thinking how to manage the vendor bank accounts in company codes level or in centeral level.
    our problem with company codes level is that the vendor bank accounts define in a centeral level so technically with sap standard it is not possible. if anyone can tell me that this is possible i will be very happy to know.
    in centeral level our problem is with the business process because of we do not have a person (functionalism ) that can be responsible for all the company codes, basically every company shoule be responsible for her vendors
    please advice what is the best practice to manage vendor bank accounts in enviroment of several company code
    regards,
    meir

    hi Raghu,
    i know that but this is not my qusition.
    which company code will be responsible to enter the bank account in the vendor master data? as i say the vendor bank accounts manage in centeral level and not in company code level and this is our problem and i like to know how other companies with the same situation handle with this issue
    and also after we have the bank accounts in the vendor master data what happend if for one vendor has several bank accounts one for every company code? how the payment program F110 could know automaticaly which bank account to take (i know that there is an optoin to use Partner bank type in the vendor master data, and enter this PBT when posting the invoice of the vednor, but this is not good because of we do not want the the accountant will be responsible from which bank the vendor get his money).

  • Material valuation at company code level

    Hi,
    We have the valuation at company code level and when we transfer material from one plant to another (Two step stock transfer) the system dont post  fi document. When the profit center of the material is assign an fi document is posted. Somebody knows why?
    Thanks
    Edited by: Elisabete Cuellar on Jul 27, 2010 11:56 AM

    you have valuation at company code level.
    both plants are in same company code, so same valuation level, so no FI document created , the FI docuement not required here
    For profit center, FI document will be ceated for that profit center.
    This is standard process only

  • MRP at company code level

    Dear Experts,
    We required MRP at Company code level.
    We have 33 plants for MRP run , While running MRP system has to consider Finish Goods stocks of all plant's location should be consider for Availiblity check
    MRP run carried with scope of planning , in this scope of planning all the
    required plants are assigned , during planning Run , the stocks at other
    plants are not consider during NET requirement calculation.
    In turn it creates the planned independent requirement directly.
    So kindly suggest where we are going wroung. 
    Thanks 
    Material with scope of planning for all required plants.
    1. material with MRP type --- PD
    2.procurement type --- F and X (since planning external )
    3.Planning strategy --10

    Don,
    We required MRP at Company code level
    SAP PP does not explicitly support this requirement.  Since each plant is owned by a single company, you can run MRP against all plants owned by a specific company.  This will at least select the right materials for processing.
    While running MRP system has to consider Finish Goods stocks of all plant's location should be consider for Availability check
    MRP is not related to availability check.  FYI, if you are actually talking about availability check, and not MRP, there is no availability check available in ECC that will check inventory across plants.
    the stocks at other plants are not consider during NET requirement calculation.
    Yes.  This is normal.
    In turn it creates the planned independent requirement directly.
    MRP does not create Planned independent requirements.
    In short, you are doing nothing wrong.  This is the way that it works.  If this is unacceptable, then you will need to create a customized solution with Enhancements or BADIs.
