PO report by account assignment

Hi!
There is this report ME2K to display PO's by account assignment, but I cannot find to make it work without cost center. I would like to find PO lines by account assignment "E", but don't see this report suitable for that.
ME2K is called "Purchasing Documents by Account Assignment", however it works only with Cost Centers. Am I missing something? Can you please help?
Thanks,
Maris

Hi,
This is standard in SAP, that you can include the WBS element regardless of marked as a billing element or not.But system will not allow you to do billing using those WBS elements which are not marked as a billing element in project system.
The facility to include the WBS (not maked as a billing element ) in the sales order is for the tracking of project revenue. For example: You can create a sales order including WBS elements , so that there will be tracking of the material and planned revenue ( which is to be billed to the customer to generate revenue ).
And if you have to start billing those material items to the customer then you have to mark them as billing elements in the project.
Or if you really want to restrict the WBS element in sales order as per your requirment then you can use different user status or can create a ABAP program to be triggred at the time of saving the sales order that should display a error message like these many WBS elements cannot be included in the sales order as they are not marked for account assignment.
Thank's
Raj.

  • Open PO commitment report, for non-account assigned line material.

    Hi expert,
    Where can i find a report that gives me the open PO commitment, without any account assignment on the PO?
    Meaning it is a warehouse material, but at the end of the period, I need to know wha`t is my commitment, and compare that to my budget.
    I know I can get this information at the time of goods receipt, but my point is that I haven`t received the goods yet, and need to know what are my commitments.
    I hope I was clear.
    Thanks
    Fotso

    Hi Eli,
    When i do exactly what you mentioned above, the system just add a new report which is "Range: Actual/Budget/Commitments
    ", which comes to the tcode.
    So the drill-down lead me to the tcode again.
    When I pressed "Configure" in the section Report/report interface, I saw there was already the receiver report "Cost Center: Actual Line Items".
    So I guess I should add something similar to "Cost Center: Commitment Line Items". How can I do that?
    Thank you

    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.

  • Reporting on Operation Level costing / Operational Account assignment data

    Hi folks,
    Please can anyone here with experience in dealing with extracting Operation Level costing (OLC) / Operational Account assignment (OAA) data for Maintenance Orders share their experience.
    We have done some basic checking around this and Account assignment at activity level has been enabled.  Been trying to use 0PM_OM_OPA_2 extractor to get this Operational Account assignment data but no luck.
    Perhaps PM Consultants familiar with OLC/OAA solution can help answer this. What are the tables to look at for getting to this Operational Account assignment data?
    Any clues will be appreciated.Thanks for your help!

  • Profit center at GR IR Clearing Account - MIGO (Account Assignment Q)

    Dear all,
    We are implementing SAP into a Real estate business client and based on requirements from the Finance we have agreed to have profit centre level balance sheet for each of tower
    Hence lets take an example
    There is a project with PC1 (Common Costs) and 3 buildings (PC2, PC3 and PC4 for each building). We have one plant for one project and hence in material master plant is given as PC1.
    If we procure Raw materials specific to each building (account assignment Q) with WBS element of tower one and PC2 defined in account assignment of WBS master data, below is the mentioned entry which I am getting
    Inventory A/c Dr. PC2
    Clearing A/c Dr. PC1
              To GR IR Clearing PC1
               To Clearing A/c     PC2
    Profit center document splitting and zero balancing is active in my scenario
    My issue is that GR IR Clearing should not take profit center from MM master, however it should override profit center of WBS element if procurement is done with account assignment Q
    Request you to give your thoughts
    Thanks
    Nishu

    Hi Kavita,
    The purpose of creating profit center for each tower was to identify vendors / customers balance from Finance through profit center reporting
    As mentioned in above scenario it does not makes sense to have inventory at tower profit center and GR / IR or vendor at HO Profit center
    Any method available with which we can bypass material master profit center through document splitting or account assignment setting in material master.
    My MM team is also working on it and they are not keen to have one plant for one profit center. Hence we are looking to find a workaround for the above situation
    Thanks

  • Enter a true account assignment object with revenues while reversing FB08

    Hi All
    When I am reversing the document through FB08 I am getting the warning messege "Enter a true account assignment object with revenues"
    Message no. KI166
    Diagnosis
    You made an account assignment for 31211100, a revenue element, in controlling area 1000 to a cost center or profit center.
    System Response
    Cost centers and profit centers can carry revenues in the SAP system as statistics only. To ensure reconciliation between FI and CO for revenue element 31211100, a CO account assignment object must record the revenues as a real value. This object type is used for updating to the reconciliation ledger.
    In principle, it is possible for the SAP system to automatically derive this CO account assignment object, the reconciliation object. However, all postings made in CO for costing-based Profitability Analysis are logged in the reconciliation ledger under "reconciliation object". In this manner, the reconciliation ledger identifies the exact values flowing into the operating profit. If you post reconciliation objects during revenue postings to cost centers or profit centers, you must do so while keeping the interpretation of the reconciliation ledger reports in mind. The sums of revenue postings to profitability segments, cost centers, and profit centers cannot be broken down further.
    Procedure
    To avoid posting to reconciliation objects, make account assignments to a real CO account assignment object.
    If you want to post to reconciliation objects, you can change this message to a warning or a note for future users, or deactivate the message entirely. Use the Implementation Guide under "Controlling: General" and choose Change message control. Enter area KI and message number 166. If you do not enter an individual user here, the change is valid for all users.
    It is not allowing me to reverse the document already posted.
    Please guide
    Thanks in Advance
    Sonal

    Hi,
    Do you have this cost element maintained in OKB9 with a reference to an internal order or profitability segment? If yes, please look at the note 373823.

  • Getting PO account assignment on both sides of the GR/IR accounting doc.

    When the GR/IR accounting document is created in our system for a PO item that is account assigned to an order, network or cost centre, the following occurs. On the Goods Receipt, the GR/IR account does not capture the cost assignment on the GR/IR posting.  On the Invoice Receipt, the GR/IR account posting does include the cost assignment on the GR/IR posting.
    For Example:
    MIGO posting generates this accounting entry
    Debit Expense account, Order 12xxxxxx          $100
    Credit GR/IR account                                          $100     (no order on GR/IR line)
    MIRO
    Credit Vendor                                                    $100     
    Debit GR/IR account, Order 12xxxxxx              $100  (order is posted with GR/IR line)
    Although the GR/IR account is a balance sheet account, is it useful, for a reporting task, to have the cost assignment included in the financial posting for both GRu2019s and IRs, but it only appears on the IR side.
    Is this something that can be solved by MM configuration?
    Comparing posting keys 86 (IR) with posting key 96 (GR) u2013 the cost objects we used are set as optional for both those keys, so it doesnu2019t appear to be posting key configuration.
    Note: When the PO item is assigned to a material (GR to inventory) the material appears on both sides of the GR/IR postings in Accounting, which is what we want for items account assigned to orders, networks, and cost center too.
    Thank you. Alvin.

    Thanks, but we still get the account assignment posted to GRIR during MIRO (as shown in Alvin's original post) so the full explanation cannot be the fact that GRIR is a balance account.
    Essentially, we would like GR and IR-events to pass the same account assignment string to GR/IR, except posting key.
    Thanks for helping.

  • Budgeting thru Internal Order with Account assignment category 'A'

    Dear All
    I want Budgeting thru Internal Order with Account assignment category 'A'
    i.e

    Created Internal Order and assigned budget amount to IO with Tcode KO01 and KO22
    Created Purhcase Requisition with Account assignment catg as 'A' i.e asstes. Also given Internal Order No and Asset code in PR.

    Created Purchase Order with Account assignemnt catg as 'A' i.e asstes.  In Purchase Order it displays Internal Order No. and Asset code which i have given in PR in Account assignemnt tab on Item level
    Released Purchase Order.
    Now i am checking budget detail in Tcode : S_ALR_87013019  -> List: Budget/Actual/Commitments ,  Here it gives message , "No line item were selected " in Commitment line items.
    Actually  my requirement is , i want budgeting thru internal order and want to use Account assignment category as 'A' (Assets) in PR and PO.
    Why it's not showing detail in report S_ALR_87013019  .
    What is solution for my requirement. Is it possible with some configuration or by other options.
    Thanx & Regards
    Swati Shah

    Hi Swati,
    You can do this in Asset Accounting. By standard MIGO Posting Date is taken as capitalization date for asset. You can configure to make it 'Document Date'.
    So, whenever user is posting thru MIGO, he will have better control on deciding capitalization date by inputting appropriate date in Document Date Field in MIGO.
    Check this thread..

  • How to determine value of PO account assignment item

    G'Day,
    Simple question: I'm after a cost breakdown of a PO at account assignment level. For this I need to determine the value of an account assignment item in a consistent manner. e.g. if a PO item has an account assignment split across multiple cost centers then I need the value against each cost center. Very straightforward in theory, however in practice the value field in EKKN is not always filled. Some account assignment categories use percentages, others use quantities and others use values or combinations thereof.
    I can code this quite easily, but the examples I've seen for different account assignment categories are a bit too random for my liking. I don't know if I will catch every option so I would prefer some SAP function module or something similar, which I have thus far been unable to find. Does anyone have a method using standard SAP?
    Input appreciated,
    Mike

    Dear Mike,
    Try report ME2K with Cost center using *, account assignment K, plant and posting date restrictions.
    This report will give you the purchasing document - cost center wise quantity distribution details (irrespective of either Quantity or Percentage distribution in Purchase order).
    Only part missing is - in this report you will get ordered price / per unit and cost center wise allotted quantity, the value (Price per unig X cost center wise allotted qty) you didnt get. This can get if the data transferred to excel.
    I hope this will help the requirement.
    Regards,
    Syed Hussain.

    Dear Kumar,
    According to the document principle. a document must be generated and stored in the system for every transaction/event that causes a change in stock.
    When posting a goods movement in the SAP System, the following documents are created:
    <b>Material document</b>
    In the Inventory Management system, when a goods movement is posted, a material document is generated that serves as proof of the movement and as a source of information for any applications that follow.
    A material document consists of a header and at least one item. The header contains general data about the movement (for example, its date). Each item describes one movement.
    <b>Accounting document</b>
    If the movement is relevant for Financial Accounting (that is, if it leads to an update of the G/L accounts), an accounting document is created parallel to the material document.
    In some cases, several accounting documents are created for a single material document. This might be the case, for example, if you have two material document items with different plants that belong to different company codes.
    The G/L accounts involved in a goods movement are updated through an automatic account assignment.
    For goods receipts for purchase orders, goods movements for stock transport orders and consignment withdrawals, business partners may have different local currencies. Therefore, as well as the local currency, the accounting document must also contain another currency for processing and postings. For this purpose, accounting documents created as a result of these goods movements will automatically be managed in the local currency and in the document currency. You can switch between both currencies by choosing Settings -> Currency display.

    <b>General Ledger Accounting:</b>
    The central task of G/L accounting is to provide a comprehensive picture for external accounting and accounts. Recording all business transactions (primary postings as well as settlements from internal accounting) in a software system that is fully integrated with all the other operational areas of a company ensures that the accounting data is always complete and accurate.
    The SAP FI General Ledger has the following features:
    Free choice of level: corporate group or company
    Automatic and simultaneous posting of all sub-ledger items in the appropriate general ledger accounts (reconciliation accounts)
    Simultaneous updating of general ledger and cost accounting areas
    Real-time evaluation of and reporting on current accounting data, in the form of account displays, financial statements with different financial statement versions and additional analyses.
    Essentially, the general ledger serves as a complete record of all business transactions. It is the centralized, up-to-date reference for the rendering of accounts. Actual individual transactions can be checked at any time in realtime processing by displaying the original documents, line items, and transaction figures at various levels such as:
    Account information
    Journals
    Totals/transaction figures
    Balance sheet/profit and loss evaluations
    Account postings form an integrated part of SAP accounting. All transactions entered in the sub ledger accounts end up as general ledger postings in SAP. Thus, a posting to sub ledger account say account receivable, account payable will have an effect on the general ledger. As a rule, any accounting transaction, which affects the general ledger invariably results in a GL account posting.
    But how does SAP recognize the correct GL account to be posted based on the sub ledger transaction entry. SAP recognized every transaction or entry in the sub ledger as a line item. Having said that, each line item has a unique account number, amount, and posting key. SAP FIGL uses this information in identifying the account to be posted. Similar to account postings, documents created in other modules such as production planning, sales & distribution, materials management, controlling, also get posted if they affect the general ledger i.e. SAP GL. A user in SAP does not even have to manually post a document / line item. SAP can be configured for automatic posting though an option is available for manual posting as well.
