Posting Level 01 documents allow cross company postings - unexpected
hi,
Previously users could not enter a PL01 document that crossed companies.
Now they can.
I had previously thought that this was not possible for PL01 but what is happening is
when they enter cross-company postings (2 lines, one each to a different cons unit)
the system creates 2 documents,
with 2 balancing entry lines (one to each unit) to the clearing item
- just as can happen when a PL20 or PL30 manual posting is to the same company but cross-profit centres.
So my question;
is this normal behaviour in BCS?
was this always possible but the users just hadn't achieved it until now
NB they are adamant that this was not possible previously, until the Support Packs were implemented sometime last year
Finally, is there a way to stop it from happening?
Concur with Dan.
Most likely, that you've met the 2nd case: the DocType with configured clearing ConsUnit was attached to manual entry task. It might be not easily seen. Just check it out and remove if find.

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

Dear All,
I am having a doubt regarding the cross company postings. The issue what i am facing is
I am having two company codes let it be A & B, now that co.code A had purchased from the vendor V and the payment to vendor V has to be made through the co code B.
But while posting the document it is giving an error stating that "maintain a unique company"
for that i had checked
1. two co.codes are assigned to the same trading partner(company)
2. checked OBYA configuration
3. checked OB60 configuration
4. doc type is allowing the inter company postings and trading partner
In which all the settings are perfectly done. But finaaly i am unable to post the document it is allowing me to simulate(even at the point of simulate i am getting 4 line items excluding taxes) but i am unable to post the document.
Hoping the guidelines for resolving the issue ASAP
with regards
Praveensure ravi from next time i will correct my self
the error i am getting is
A unique company code has not been assigned to company number XXXXXX
Message no. GLT0001
Diagnosis
Document breakdown is active in your system. In certain cases, a company code is derived from the company ID number, and this must lead to the assignment of a unique company code.
A unique company code could not be assigned to company number XXXXXX.
System Response
You cannot carry out the required posting.
Procedure
Assign one company code to company number XXXXXX. -
Invoice verification with reference to billing document in cross company

Checking cross company postings
Hello Gurus,
I was trying to manually post a cross company code transaction just to check the process. I have assigned GL accounts (In txn OBYA) in both the company codes and when i was trying to post i am not able to see the cross company transaction happening. Am i missing any configuration or is there anything that iam doing wrong?? Kindly suggest me !!
If there are any particular steps that i need to follow please let me know?
Thanks,Hi,
T code to set up cross company code configuraiton is OBYA.
Enter Company Code 1 and Company Code 2.
Enter Posting Key and GL Acct in Company Code 2 for Posting Made in Company Code 1 and to be cleared in Company Code 2 (for both payables and receivables).
Enter similar configuraiton for for Posting Made in Company Code 2 and to be cleared in Company Code 1.
Cross Company Code Transactions
A cross company code transaction involves 2 or more company codes in one business transaction. For a cross company code transaction, the system will post a separate document in each of the company codes involved.
Examples for cross company code transactions are:
One company code makes purchases for other company codes (Central Procurement)
One company code pays for other company codes (Central Payment)
One company code sells goods to other company code
Steps:
Create Clearing Accounts in each of the company codes.
The Clearing Accounts may be GL Accounts, Customer or Vendor Accounts.
Configure the Automatic Postings for Cross Company Code Transactions by assigning Clearing Accounts for both the company codes.
Creation of Clearing Accounts in both the Company Codes (FS00)
Then at the time of entry in second line item you give in "new company code" field.
it will work

Bank statment cross company postings
Hi,
we want some of the items in bank statement post to bank clearing account in another company code. How we achieve that
Following are the details
Company code = ABC
House bank = def
In bank statement from house bank Def there are items that needs to be posted to Company code = GHI
Dr Bank def company code ABC
cr intercompany ghi
cr Clearing company code GHI
Dr intercompany ABC
kindly advise
UmangHello,
The SAP note 124655 explains the following:
The electronic bank statement is not designed for cross-company code
postings (this also applies to the manual bank statement). You can,
however, create these postings manually, for instance by the
subsequent processing of BI sessions or using Transaction FEBA.
However, this can lead to unwanted results in the document display
of Transaction FEBA. In this case, this is not caused by any errors
but missing system functions.

Document Splitting Cross Company Code
Hello
In our company we are using business area for internal reporting. For cross company code transaction we have assigned vendor and customer in the configuration. In the document splitting settings for cross company code transaction we did a setting that every company code should have document splitting separately (Split each document in each company code separately.
In this case there should be only one entry in the splitting rule for the item category to be edited - 01100 CC <> CC of leading item.)
We normally received vendor invoice where expense belong to several company code but invoice belong to one company code.
Example Invoice amount 1200
vendor liability in company code SA02
Expense 200 for company code SA02 and 1000 in company code SA03
When we simulate the document in general ledger view, system create 4 line item in company code SA02 one Expense Dr, Vendor Credit and two line item with zero balance. In two line items system showing no business area. We want system to post only two line item and none of the entries should be without business area
Thanks and best regardsHi
System is simulating the following entries
C>C PK Account Amount
SA02 1 000001 31 311001 T/P - 3rd Party 1,200.00- SAR 4449
SA02 2 000002 40 515011 External Persl-NonOR 200.00 SAR 4449
SA02 3 000003 01 146501 Claims/Bchar,ABB SBA 1,000.00 SAR
SA02 000004 50 999001 BA Clearing A/C 1,000.00- SAR
SA02 000005 40 999001 BA Clearing A/C 1,000.00 SAR 4449
SA03 1 000001 40 515011 External Persl-NonOR 1,000.00 SAR 2880
SA03 2 000002 31 326001 Non T/P - ABB SBA 1,000.00- SAR 2880
Now if you see in company code SA02 for receivable form SA03 system is not deriving the business area and in order to balance this entry by BA system is creating zero balance entry

Transfer Posting of Tax for Cross-Company Code Transactions
Hi Experts,
I am posting a cross company (vendor invoice) document. Expenses in both the company codes involved are taxable. But in case of cross company code documents, taxes are posted and displayed in the first company code only.
In certain countries you have a requirement to display the tax amounts separately in each company code For which you need to run RFBUST10 program in SE38.
I have executed this program for couple of documents but, it is still not clear how this program works. I tried to execute the batch input sessions created after the program execution but does not show any thing related to the tax.
While processing the batchinput session I get a message Field BSEG-MWSKZ. does not exist in the screen SAPMF05A 0301. (Tax code field is not available in the screens that are processed by the batchinput session). Document posted by batch input is debiting the customer and crediting the vendor (mainitained in OBYA), to the extent of the expense amount including its tax amount.
Can anybody who has worked on this scenario tell me what exactly happens to the tax amount fo the cross company expense.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards

Prevent CO cross company postings - cobl-bukrs ?
Hi,
the last time I created a CO validation to prevent cross company CO postings is so long ago, that I can not remember. But i remeber something like "sender comp code <> receiv comp code".
I am trying to creat this again, but do not find the cobl field for receiving company code.
The I fould KM 0120025231 0000491809 2006 (KB21N does not check company code for intercompany posting)
where the solution is to be:
Prerequisite: "No precondition necessary" TRUE
Check: COBL-BUKRS <> COBL-BUKRS
Message: own created message ZZ 010 as a Message type 'E'
1. this prevents now all postings not only cross company
2. I dont get the idea of COBL-BUKRS <> COBL-BUKRS (like if 1 <> 1 which could never happen)
Hints highly appreciated
BjoernHi Bjoern,
Eli is right. I just had look at the old message. Basically she was right...you might have overlooked that she was refering to event "2"...hence the validation rule is:
COBL_RECEIVER-BUKRS < > COBL_SENDER-BUKRS

Cross-company code postings - FI validation
Hi,
We start using the cross-company code postings (transaction OBYA) between company code A and company code B and have to give authorizations both company codes to the Finance users. The idea is to have a set of G/L accounts which are allowed to be used when company code A and B are posted via cross-company code posting.
SAP recommends to implement a validation in FI to restrict the Intercompany scenatios. I attempted to create a FI validation for complete document (call-point 3) with no success:
1)
IC Rule: BSEG-BUKRS = A and BSEG-BUKRS = B and BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
Prerequisite: TRUE
Check: IC rule
Message: E- Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
When I test it, the Intercompany clearing account configured in OBYA, and which is in ACCOUNTSET, shows up in the error message, which unwanted.
2)
IC Rule 1: BKPF-BUKRS = '0017' AND BKPF-BUKRS = '0005'
IC Rule 2: BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
Prerequisite: TRUE
Check: IC Rule 1 --> IC Rule 2
Message: E- Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
No error message is issued at all, even if the G/L account is not in ACCOUNTSET.
Please advise what I am missing.Hi Nitin,
Thank you for your feeback.
I just wanted to clarify that the cross-company code posting is when company code A can intitiate a posting to company code B simultaneously (for example Intercompany re-charge, cash concentration, etc.). The trigger for cross-company code posting is the company code field on the line item. If company code A is in the header (BKPF-BUKRS) and at least one document line item filled up as company code B, the system created two documents for each company code, offsetting the Intercompany clearing account, configured in OBYA.
For example:
Posting via FB50: Leading company code = company code A (BKPF-BUKRS)
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200; Company code A (as a default)
Item 2: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100; Company code B (manually changed)
Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2; Amount 300; Company code A (as a default)
The systen creates two postings:
Posting 1: company code A
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200;
Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2; Amount 300;
Item 2: Debit ; I/C Clearing Account; Amount 100;
Posting 2: company code B
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100;
Item 2: Credit;I/C Clearing Account; Amount 100;
The only connection between the two is the cross-company code number (BKPF-BVORG), which assigned by the system once posted, as a logical connection.
I guess we could use a dedicated document type. If that's the case, how would the validation work then?
Coudl you please share more details on the BTE option?
Thank you,

BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST- Cross Company-Code Posting problem

The document gets posted and uploaded in SAP but the posting result i.e
for clearing accounts is incorrect.(clearing accounts of post in company is not generated)

ERROR DURING T.CODE F-53 ( cross company transaction error)
Hello ,
I am clearing two documents , in which one is cross company code transaction and another is vendorinvoice through t.code f-53.
while saving the document I am gettting the following error.
Consolidated companies 1000 and ' ' are different
Message no. F5080
Diagnosis
The number of the affiliated company must be clear for the selected document type for all line items. In this case at least two different companies or a company in connection with a business partner who does not belong to a company are stated.
Procedure
If you selected the correct accounts, you must enter the document with a document type that allows cross-company posting. Otherwise, please correct the entered account.
kindly help me to solve this issue
thanks and Regards,
muscanHi,
Please check if in the control data of the vendor master "Trading Partner" is populated.
If yes, then if you remove the trading partner then you might not get this error.
If a trading partner is there, the system check the document type for Intercompany posting control and if its not there then the system gives such an error.
Changing a document type might impact all the business transactions relating to the document type that you are using.
However this might not be required in your scenario.
Thanks,

Edited by: Murali Mikkili on Jul 28, 2008 11:49 AMHi Daniel,
Both the company codes should be assigned to the same company.
Clearing accounts must be defined in every company code before a cross-company code transaction may be carried out. The clearing accounts may be G/L accounts, customer, or vendor accounts.
In the configuration you must assign clearing accounts to every possible combination of two company codes to allow cross-company code postings between these combinations
To reduce the number of clearing accounts, you can use just one company code as the clearing company code. In this case, you only have to assign clearing accounts to every combination of the clearing company code
In T-code OBYA
For ex: company code 1000 clearing account 12345 is same for Debit and credit
Company code 2000 Clearing account 67890 is same for debit and credit
Posting keys must be assigned to the clearing accounts to identify their account
types.
Hope this helps you to solve your probelm.
Regards,
Mir
