Reg: Controlling Area

Hi,
Controlling Area has been set a default value and to be mandatory in Customization by Functional guys. Now i need to make that controlling area to be optional to record for bdc. Please tell me the way to do it.
Regards,
Akshaya

Hi Akshaya,
   It is better to write the BDC along with controlling area. Just check how many controlling area is being used in the business, if it is only one you can even hardcore the value in your program

  • Assigning CoCd to Controlling areas

    Hi,
    I have 4 company codes in 4 different countries with different currencies. Should i have 4 controlling areas or can i have just one controlling area what is more benificail.
    Appreciate any response
    Shine

    Hello
    One common controlling area is advised for all the 4 company codes. Maintain the controlling area currency as acceptable to global standards.
    Although the data from different company codes is flowing to controlling area, reporting is uniquely done.
    There is no need to maintain seperate CA with seperate currencies.

  • Controlling area currency - urgent

    Hi,
    In a project we are using Controlling Area Currency as INR. As our group company is europe based they want us to change to EUR. We are also using PCA where currency is INR. I want to know the pros and cons of changing the same to EUR from INR.
    Bye,

    Hello
    Check this if it could help you
    When you create a controlling area, you specify whether the controlling area currency may differ from the company code currency, and which particular currency is to be the controlling area currency.
    You can use the company code currency or the currency of a different organizational unit recorded as a parallel currency in the company code. You can also use a separate controlling area currency not dependent on the company code currency.
    Cross-company code cost accounting can therefore be performed for company codes that use values recorded in different currencies. SAP recommends that you specify a consistent parallel currency for the company codes, and use this as the controlling area currency. In this case, postings in Controlling are made that are relevant for Accounting.
    The following currencies are valid in Controlling:
    · Controlling area currency
    The system uses this currency for cost accounting. This currency is set up when you create the controlling area. It is based on the assignment control indicator and the currency type.
    (see:  Specifying Controlling Area Currency )
    · Object currency
    Each object in Controlling, such as cost center or internal order, may use a separate currency specified in its master data. When you create an object in CO, the SAP system defaults the currency of the company code to which the object is assigned as the object currency. You can specify a different object currency only if the controlling area currency is the same as the company code currency. There is an object currency for the sender as well as one for the receiver.
    · Transaction currency
    Documents in Controlling are posted in the transaction currency. The transaction currency can differ from the controlling area currency and the object currency. The system automatically converts the values to the controlling area currency at the exchange rate specified.
    The system always translates actual data with the average rate (exchange rate type M).
    You store the exchange rate type for each currency. You can specify a different exchange rate type for planning data in the version.
    All three currencies are saved in the totals records and the line items. This enables you to use the different currencies for evaluations in the information system. This is only possible if you specified that all currencies should be updated for the given controlling area (see: Maintain Controlling Area).
    The transaction currency is USD, the controlling area currency is EUR, and the object currency is SFR (Swiss francs). The system converts the amounts as follows:
    1.) From transaction currency to controlling area currency (USD ® EUR)
    2.) From controlling area currency to object currency (EUR ® SFR)
    The following additional currencies may also appear as controlling area currencies in Controlling if you use cross-company code cost controlling:
    Local Currency:
    Company code currency (country currency) used for local ledgers in external accounting.
    For each company code you can specify one or two parallel currencies (= second and third local currencies) which are stored in the documents and updated parallel to the local currency in the general ledger.
    Group Currency:
    Currency in which the group balance sheet is displayed.
    You can specify it as a parallel currency (additional local currency) for a company code.
    Hard Currency:
    Secondary currency for countries with high inflation. You can specify it as a parallel currency (additional local currency) for a company code. You need to specify the hard currency in the detail screen for the corresponding country.
    Index-Based Currency:
    Country-specific, fictitious currency stipulated in certain countries with high inflation for tax returns. You can specify it as a parallel currency (additional local currency) for a company code. You need to specify the index-based currency in the detail screen for the corresponding country.
    Global Company Currency:
    Currency used in a corporate group. In the CO application component you can create companies to represent divisions, regions, or product groups.
    You can specify it as a parallel currency (additional local currency) for a company code. You need to store the global company currency in the detail screen for the corresponding company.
    For more information on defining parallel currencies, see Customizing under Financial Accounting ® FI Global Settings ® Company Code ® Parallel Currencies ® Defining additional local currencies.

  • Problem in Crdit control Area

    Dear Team,
    We have an issue with credit control .
    We have as same customer for which is common for 2 countries (example spain and Italy).
    Italy has the credit limit  20000 EUR and Spain has the credit lime 150000 EUR
    In the FD32 screen Status table business is changing the Credit representative group for credit management  from Spain to Italy but the value in the credit limt (Credit limit data) is not changing its showing the value 150000 (its not changin).
    How can set this , we have to set manuval of some other way? please advice.
    And second question is
    In the Central Data tab (Maximum permintted credit limits)
    what are the values we should set for the customer italy.
    Total Amount  --- ?
    Individul amount ---?
    Please guids us how can we do these settings.
    Thanks & Regards,
    MK.

    Hi MK,
    For ur first question: You cannot have mutiple credit limits for the same customer based on country wise, unless u have more than one credit control areas. For this issue, you have to create country specific credit control areas only. By doing this, you can define multiple credit limits for the same customer.  
    For the 2nd Q: Again in the central data tab, the Total Amont represents the Total credit limit of this particular customer across all the credit contrl areas (if u have more than one credi contrl ares(say,Italy & Spain) for this same customer).
    Indiv. Amt represents the Credit limit of this customer on a particular cre.contrl area (say, either Italy or spain).

  • Controling area issue

    Dear expert
               our client want one new company code .so we copy exiting company code ( new g/l without document spiting) . in my new company code i have activated document spiting functionality  &  with spiting characteristics  segment & profit center & we are using same controlling area ( i have read 702854 deactivation of classical profit center ) . if  i can do this configuration please suggest me
    Example
      2100 company code  - 2101  company code  - (same controlling area)- here i can use classical profit center & with document spiting characteristics with new company code 2011
    Regards
       Ajeesh.s

    Hi
    I think you should not have both new and classic in one client for long run
    The implementation of a new company code and the transition from the classic General Ledger to the new General Ledger are two different projects which you must schedule at different times.
    You perform the migration from the classic General Ledger to the new General Ledger at client level and it affects all company codes in this client.
    Because the new General Ledger is activated at client level, the new General Ledger would be active for all company codes, not only for the new company code. This would mean that the new General Ledger is active in the old company codes, but there was no migration from the classic General Ledger to the new General Ledger. This is not possible.
    Therefore, it is not possible to start with a new company code in the new General Ledger while the classic General Ledger is still active in other company codes in the same client.
    First implement the new company code. Then set up the project for the transition from the classic General Ledger to the new General Ledger.
    Alternatively: First set up the project for the transition from the classic General Ledger to the new General Ledger and migrate the data to the new General Ledger, then implement the new company code.

  • My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management

    I have recently purchased a Mac computer (updated to Maverick) to go with my Epson Stylus Photo RX500 printer which has given excellent service with my old Windows computer. However, when trying to print pictures or photos via Photoshop Elements 11, the best results I can get are using the Colour Management and Epson Colour controls in the printing options box.
    My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management, The only way I can reset the controls is to shut down the printer and computer and restart.
    Could there may be a setting somewhere that I need to adjust please?  I have been in touch with Epson and they say that the Epson Colour controls are part of the Photoshop Elements software but a post on the Adobe forum brought no results and I am unable to contact Adobe.
    <Edited by Host>

    Hello Garry. Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have used a different title from "How do I post a question?" That should come after trying to resolved the colour settings first. However, to answer your question, after experimenting with all the different settings in Photoshop Elements and Epson software, I now start with PSE11 Colour settings then click "no colour management" then after clicking Print, I choose "More Options/Colour Management/Colour Handling/Printer Manages Colour" then I choose "Page Setup/Layout/Colour Matching" which then shows Epson Colour Controls but I also choose "Layout/Colour Management" which then shows "Colour Controls/Mode" I then of course choose an Epson printer profile depending on the paper I am using. I get good results but as I said, the Colour Matching and Colour Controls are then greyed out. Hope that makes sense.

    We have got a situation that we need to de activate the existing controlling area and create a new controlling area as per the mutual agreement between our co & the client.
    and we have got 1:1 ratio between controlling area & company code
    Now the system will not allow me to delete the company code assignment from the controlling area as the master data exists for this particular company code.
    how do i proceed with this kind of situation.
    My concerns are
    1. How do I assign the company code to a new controlling area which has already been assigned to a particular controlling area.
    2. Now if i go with the new controlling area which i have created then how does the system respond to the old open item data which has been entered for old cost centres,profit centres.
       What will happen when i start clearing this transactions how does the system responsd to this kind of situations.
    Kindly advise
    Regards
    Sunil

  • How could i Integrate (merge) 2 different Controlling areas into one?

    Hello gurus,
    The client i am working for had defined, from the beggining (during SAP Implementation), one Controlling area for the entire company.
    This definition was correctly done, as a way to centralize every operation and transaccion made.
    After some years, this company merge with another one, that had the same implemented controlling model, but asociated to another Controlling area.
    The problem is that we need to integrate both Controlling areas into one, in other words, every operation saved or transaction made linked to the new Controlling area (the one of the second company), must be converted to the code of the original one.
    Is there an std. way to erase the second Controlling area and asociate all its records (saved in every table) to the orignal one, as if they were one from the very beggining?
    Thanks very much!.
    Pablo.-
