HI Steve,
A Customer and Vendor have to defined as two seperate Business Partners. In SBO 2007 the reconciliation feature has been enhanced where a Customer and Vendor could be reconciled easily.
In your case, you could use an interim G/L to reconcile Customer and Vendor. Or Create a JE crediting the Customer and debiting the Vendor

Mass Write Off - When Funds Management is active

Hi All,
I am working for ISU project and we have a business requirment to do Mass Write Off. We are not able to do it as Funds Management is active.
We had to activate Funds management as we need to send fund related information to Peoplesoft, which is the reporting engine for the client.
We are encountering this error:
Write-off over several fiscal years
Message no. FKKFMCHK038
Diagnosis
You are posting a document similar to a write-off that writes off documents from several fiscal years. This is not possible with the transaction used if Funds Management is active.
If anyone can throw some light on how to slove this, it would grealy help me.
Thanks,
Lalitha

Hi Lalitha,
The reason can be a commitment item with a wrong financial transaction. Therefore please check
the relevant bank clearing account and the assigned commitment item.
The commitment item should have financial transaction 90 in transaction FMCIA.
In the long text of SAP note 686383 you'll find more information regarding this topic. The point 3 under limitations is very
important for the described situation.
I believe this will help you.
Best Regards,
Vanessa.

Write off FICA documents with no segments after New GL has been activated

Hi Gurus,
The scenario we are facing is as follows"
The client had already implemented FICA as part of its legacy, but SAP FICO was not implemented. As part of the new framework, we are implementing SAP FICO as well, while at the same time New GL is now being activated.
All ancillary configurations have been maintained for deriving profit center/segment information on main and sub transactions through use of CO Account assignment key.
Issue:
The issue we are facing now is that, while writing off (FP04) any FICA document which has a profit center/segment information, we are able to write it off. But any FICA document which does not have segment information, we are getting the error "Segment Missing"
Probable Solutions:
1) Tried maintaining the value as "2" (Account Assignment) at the following node:
FICAIMG-->Business transactions--> Define specifications for Write-offs
This solution did not help us in writing off the FICA document
2)Custom logic in event 5030?
Custom logic can be maintained in the FM at event 5030, where we should be able to derive the profit center/segment info. based on the business area
Please let me know if any other options can be tried and also if the custom logic at event 5030 should help us resolve the write off issue?

Hi, I have the same laptop and had the same problem.
I have solved it by adding the following arguments to the kernel command line:
acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor
Note: acpi_osi only did the trick, but then the backlight service fails. acpi_backlight fixes the service.

Hi,
not understanding customized installation instructions , customized means tailored by user , what does the meaning of customized context here?Some times before patching you need to back some custom files and/or customization done to some files.
Using PAA, You can put these custom instructions.
You said "when you run adpatch with preinstall=y, it checks if all the pre-requistes are met or not" but the same from above link says.You are right, the preinstall=y is used "during an upgrade or consolidated update".
Pre-install Mode
Pre-install mode is generally used during the upgrade process to update AD utilities,
apply family consolidated upgrade patches, or work around other patching issues.
AutoPatch asks all startup questions except those relating to the database.
To run AutoPatch in pre-install mode, include preinstall=y on the AutoPatch command
line. It performs the following actions:
■ Compares version numbers.
■ Copies files.
■ Relinks FND and AD executables.
■ Saves patch information to the file system.
It compares vesion numbers, meaning checks for pre-req and does the required copying.

Project Billing "write-off" options

I'm attempting to determine the best method of "writing off" transactions on direct projects that have been reported as billable, accrued revenue but will never be billed. Please consider the following narrative as an example:
A consultant (consultant x) charges April time and expense to project 10001 in a billable capacity (charged transactions to a billable task). The transactions are cost distributed, revenue distributed and an invoice is subsequently produced. All cost and revenue transactions are produced, interfaced and ultimately posted to the general ledger in April. The month of April is closed in PA and the invoices for the April billing cycle are produced. Project 10001's draft invoice includes those charges reported by consultant x and is distributed to the project manager for approval. The project manager reviews the invoice review and determines that consultant x's transactions will never be billed and instructs the accounting group to write off the transactions.
Challenge: we need a way to "write-off" (reduce revenue and change billing status) transactions that will allow for consistent reporting and measurement. Specifically, we need to be able to determine all write-off's (revenue/billing reductions) in a given period that relate to original transactions from an earlier or different period. In short, we want to establish a policy and procedure for consistently processing and reporting these types of conditions.
Proposed Options:
1) use the "special" non-billable adjustment option from either expenditure inquiry or invoice review to change the billing status from billable to non-billable.
Pros:
a) transactions will remain on the project in the capacity they were reported by the employee
b) an adjustment record will be created in the PA_Expend_Item_adj_Activities table which will include the adjustment activity code (i.e. Billable Reclass, Non-billable reclass, billing hold, billing hold release, etc.)
c) history of who created original transactions and adjustments is available (full audit trail)
d) a reversing revenue entry will be created in the PA_Cust_Rev_Dist_Lines_all table which will allow us to track the dates (gl period) of the revenue adjustment and compare it to the original transaction dates.
Cons:
a) to the average users the transaction on a billable task flagged as non-billable with no corresponding revenue may look unusual because there is no description explaining why the adjustment existed. the only way to determine that revenue existed and was subsequently reversed is to look at item details- revenue details.
b)The revenue write-off will be charged to the same accounts (revenue and inventory) that the original transaction was booked to but in reverse. we don't have the ability to deflect the "write-off" to a bad debt account versus a direct write-off of revenue.
c) The employee's utilization calculations will be impacted by changing the billing status of the transactions and reducing the corresponding revenue. we may need to update the utilization report to reflect these types of transactions differently.
2) use the "special" transfer adjustment option to transfer the transaction from the originating billable task to a non-billable destination task on the project in question.
Pros:
a) the average user will easily see that the transaction in question has been reversed and b) the revenue subsequently written off by the negative revenue on the reversal transaction
c) an adjustment record will be created in the PA_Expend_Item_adj_activities table which will include the applicable adjustment activity code(s) (Transfer Back-out, Transfer Originating, Transfer Destination).
d) history of who created original and adjustments is available.
a reversing revenue entry will be made via e) the negative reversal entry created in the PA_Cust_Rev_Dist_Lines_All table.
Cons:
a) the original transaction is being altered (transferred) by accounting. the integrity of the transaction as it was submitted by the source employee may be compromised.
b) there is no easy way for the average end user to know where the transaction was transferred to. the information is available via ad hoc reporting from database tables but looking at expenditure inquiry for a given project you will not be able to determine where the transaction went if it was transferred to another task and many tasks exist or if it was transferred to another project entirely.
c) The revenue write-off will be charged to the same accounts (revenue and inventory) that the original transaction was booked to but in reverse. we don't have the ability to deflect the "write-off" to a bad debt account versus a direct write-off of revenue.
d) The employee's utilization calculations will be impacted by changing the billing status of the transactions and reducing the corresponding revenue. we may need to update the utilization report to reflect these types of transactions differently.
e) As a common practice, each project will need at least one "non-billable" task to capture such write-off transfers.
3) use a write-off event (both revenue and billing) to reduce the project by the aggregate amount of all transactions in question.
Pros:
a) employee specific transactions and ultimately utilization results will not be impacted by the independent event transaction.
b) by modifying our autoaccounting rules we will be able to book the "write-off" to an account other than a revenue account. (I believe, more research necessary)
Cons:
a) No link back to actual transactions.
b) original transactions will remain untouched and will appear as though they were billed and will show up on the invoice and detail reports to the client along with an aggregated event for the total write-off amount.
Any thoughts or opinions you can provide about the best practice in Oracle will be greatly appreciated.

Diana,
Here's another response from a (very) senior Projects consultant. Her comments are in CAPS, so they can be dinstinguished from your comments:
"I recommend following the approach she outlines in Section 2, with the following additions:
SECTION 2) use the "special" transfer adjustment option to transfer the Transaction from the originating billable task to a non-billable Destination task on the project in question. CORRECT.
A) SET UP THE WBS TO HAVE A TOP LEVEL NON-BILLABLE TASK, ON EVERY PROJECT, WITH A TASK NUMBER OF :"WRITE-OFF".
B) WRITE AUTOACCOUNTING RULE , BASED ON TASK NUMBER, TO ENSURE THAT ANY TRANSACTIONS CHARGED (TRANSFERRED) TO "WRITE-OFF" TASK WILL BE POSTED TO A "WRITE-OFF/BAD DEBT" ACCT IN GENERAL LEDGER.
C) CREATE A DFF AT THE EXPENDITURE ITEM LEVEL WHICH CAN BE POPULATED AT THE TIME OF TRANSFER, TO INDICATE WHERE THE TRX IS BEING TRANSFERRED TO. IT IS TRUE THAT TRANSFER ACTIVITY REPORT WILL TELL YOU THIS AS WELL, BUT IF YOU
WANT TO SEE IT ONLINE DURING EXPEND. INQ, THEN DFF IS FINE.
D) AS TO CONCERNS ABOUT "THE INTEGRITY" OF THE TRANSACTION AS IT IS SUBMITTED BY THE EMPLOYEE BEING COMPROMISED, THIS IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE, BUT IF THIS IS A SERIOUS BUSINESS CONCERN, THEN I WOULD CONSIDER CREATING AN ALERT TO THE EMPLOYEE WHO ENTERED THE ORIGINAL TRX, ADVISING THEM OF THE CHANGE AND REQUESTING THEIR REVIEW AND OR APPROVAL OF THE TRANSFERRED TRX. I CAN SEE THIS BECOMING QUITE CUMBERSOME THOUGH, AND, OVERALL, ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENTS MANIPULATE TRANSACTIONS FOR ACCOUNTING PURPOSES ALL THE TIME AS STANDARD PRACTICE, SO I'M NOT SURE WHY THIS IS AN ISSUE HERE.
E) AND LASTLY, IT IS TRUE THAT AS A COMMON PRACTICE, EACH PROJECT WILL NEED A
'WRITE-OFF" TASK AS A STANDARD PART OF IT'S WBS-- SO WHAT? IT'S JUST ONE MORE TASK IN YOUR WBS. BUILD IT INTO YOUR PROJECT TEMPLATES, AND MAKE IT NOT CHARGEABLE UNTIL WRITE OFFS BECOME NECESSARY. AS TO UTILIZATION, THERE IS NOT ENOUGH INFO IN THE CLIENT QUESTION TO ADDRESS THAT ISSUE PROPERLY.
THAT'S ABOUT IT. HOPE THIS HELPS.
BEST REGARDS, PAT"

MR11 Write-Offs (KP doc type) not clearing

A maintenance adjustment transaction (MR11) was executed to 'write-off' the open receipts on a purchase order. All purchase order items have the same accounting (Profit Center, GL Acct, Comp Code). The MR11 transaction creates a KP (account maintenance document) which is posted against the PO line and is cleared against the receipt accounting document(s).
A clearing document should be created to offset the receipt/invoice document with the maintenance document.
For some reason, part of the items that were 'maintenanced' on the PO did not get cleared, while other items did get cleared. Our internal SAP GL super users have reviewed the documents and cannot understand why some of these did not clear.
Thoughts?

Hi
Please check whether there are "quantity differences" in those POs. If not, then MR11 will not do. Also please check whether the account assignment of those POs are "order". If so, settlement is the way forward to close the PO.

AP Accrual write off

Hi,
Kindly help to me to understand under what situation we need to write-off the AP accrual ?
Wouldn't we want to accrue all univoiced Receipts ?
Thanks

Here are some resons:
1. What PO warehouse has received may not be the one finance/accounting has invoiced. Hence you PO remains open as if it is not invoiced.
2.Sometimes finance may invoice without matching and pay vendor.Hence vendor may not question and procurement is also not questioning because they have received material.
3. Lot of times finance creates invoice for freight with accrual account with no reference to PO.this gets qualified for writeoff.
4.Invoicing for more quantity than what has been recvd. On the similar note invoicing in advance but never received.
Actually if you look at the reasons for the accrual build up you will find answers.

Asset Write-off after retirement

Dear Masters in Asset Accounting,
I have a situation where I have to write off the asset in secondary ledger (Ledger A2). The problem is that the asset retirement (ABAVN) was done in the past so I can't write-off the same by using T-code ABSO. Also, we are posting the depreciation to that asset since last 5 months, so I can't write-off by using FB01 / FB01L.
Is there any other way I can write off the asset after retirement only in secondary ledger?
Thank you for reading this and your help.
Jay

Hi Bernhard,
Why you can't make a write-off?
A: Because it gives me an error message. When I try to use ABSO, it gives me an error message saying Asset retirement has alredy been posted so transaction not possible. I am using ABSO because I want to make changes only in ledger A2 (secondary ledger / US GAAP). I can't ABAVN again because it will affect both the ledgers which I want to change only US GAAP.
Is the asset deactivated after ABAVN?
A: No, the asset is not deactivated. It is still active and in use.
Thank You,
Jay

Write off using Dunning

Hi All,
I want to write off open items during dunning run in FICA using transaction code (FPVA/FPVB).
Can anyone let me know , which function module i should assign in Dunning Activity for write off.
Thanks
Puneet

Hi Puneet,
The FM that you can use for performing a write-off is BAPI_CTRACDOCUMENT_WRITEOFF.
However, the import parameters for the FM may not get all the values during the dunning activity.
So I would recommend you to develop a custom FM and assign that to the corresponding dunning activity. In the custom FM, retrieve all the necessary parameters and then pass them in the FM BAPI_CTRACDOCUMENT_WRITEOFF
Hope it helps..
Thanks,
Amlan

Prepayment write off

application :11.5.10.2
We have received prepayment from OM through credit card payment type and it appears in our unapplied receipt register and also in our aging bucket report as credit amount against the customer.
In OM the lines are cancelled due to business reason but there is no impact on receipts and still it is showing as prepayment.
Now we want to write off those amounts from RECEIVABLES.
Can you please suggest any standard or work around process to write off ?
As a part of stardard functionality it cannot be written off as the status shows prepayment.it can be written off only for unapplied receipts.

Hi,
Did you set the currency to USD?
The error message means that in the currency you are clearing in, the balance is not nil.

Write Off Several Commitment Balances

The case is that we have lots of deposit invoices of various customers amounting not more than 5 Rupees, and the commitment balance is due to be applied on transactions.
One way to do this is that I would create lots of transactions for each and every commitment balance which is a very hectic activity. Is there any provision in R12 to write off several commitment balances in one go, like Auto Adjustment.

Hi
See Note 1150062 - FS-PP: Customizing settings for Clearing of Trivial Amounts.
I hope this helps you
Regards
Eduardo

Stock Write-off Report

Dear Friends,
Is there a transaction or Report available to see the write-off stock by plant or through any movement types ? Please suggest
the requirement is as fallows:
Report needs to be selectable by IPC or ICC. Or plant
The report will need to show the stock that has been written off in Quantity of the item, the cost of this stock. And where the stock was written off.
The report should provide a total cost per plant and a total cost per item. At that plant. Where multiple locations are viewed the total cost sum for the plants should be provided.
Regards
Prakash

Hi Prakash
Could you please clarify the following
1. Is this write-off stock means stock posted to scrapping (551 mvmt)?
2. What do you mean by IPC and ICC?
If you can able to bifurcate the write-off through mvmt 551 (or any other) you may get all your requirements in MB51 report itself.
Thanks/ GVRR
