Regarding Two Account Receivable for One customer

Hi all,
Can I set up two A/R receivable for one customer .For example :
Equipment sales - A/R----
Part sales -
A/R
However,A/R receivable can be set only at business partner level.
Is there any work around .Please suggest me
bishal

HI,
Suda is correct, that it is not possible.
Even if it's possible that a system can split a Sales transaction to multiple receivable accounts, how upon payment?  With an accumulated-multiple receivable on one customer's account, the customer will not tell us that this much go to this A/R account and this much go to another A/R Account.
In order to address the multiple A/R requirement of your accountant, try to study the following options
OPTION #1
I would suggest that you create multiple Customer Records in order to provide the multiple A/R Account .
Implement a coding standard on the Customers with multiple A/R Accounts, such as
C10023 - Customer with A/R Equipment
C20023 - Customer with A/R Parts
Since there will be issue on Payment for this option, create a UDF in the Incoming Payment module and assign an FMS with a query displaying the amount due for A/R Equipment and A/R Parts so that payment can be manually splitted between Customer Accounts.
OPTION #2
Maintain the standard of SAP Business One, and focus on the reporting part of the Balance Sheet.  You can create your own Balance Sheet report in order to futher split the A/R into 2 or several A/Rs depending on the transactions posted to A/R Invoices.
Hope this help.

  • Several reconciliation accounts possible for one customer/vendor

    Dear experts,
    I am starting with FI-CO module.
    I have a question regarding G/L reconciliation accounts
    -Are they only linked to subledgers AP-AR in the customers/vendors master data?  I mean for one customer i only have 1 reconciliation account (receivable from customers), i can' t have more than 1 reconciliation accounts (except Special G/L indicators such as down payments, or bad debt etc.)?
    ex : what can i do with the following exemple?
    I have customers who are my policy holders (we are an insurance company).
    I can pay them sometimes commissions and sometimes a profit sharing.
    So i have 2 G/L accounts :
    -Payables to policy holders -direct business
    -Payables to policy holders - profit sharing
    in my customers master data I can't affect these 2 accounts at the same time to my customer...So what am I supposed to do?
    Affect the first one as default in the master data, and define the second one as a special G/L indicator?
    I currently have quite a lof of detail in my operational Chart of a account and I don't know how to manage this?
    Is there only the special G/L indicators solution?
    Do you know if there are some recommandations regarding the special G/L indicators use? Can we create easily as many special G/L codes (and accounts) as we want? Or do you have a best practice?
    Many thanks in advance for your helps
    best regards,

    Dear Armelle Rolland
    Answer your questions below:
    1.Are they only linked to subledgers AP-AR in the customers/vendors master data? I mean for one customer i only have 1 reconciliation account (receivable from customers), i can' t have more than 1 reconciliation accounts (except Special G/L indicators such as down payments, or bad debt etc.)?
    answer>yes.  But their is alternative reconciliation account functio that reconciliation account can be changed manually when posting.
    2.ex : what can i do with the following exemple?
    I have customers who are my policy holders (we are an insurance company).
    I can pay them sometimes commissions and sometimes a profit sharing.
    So i have 2 G/L accounts :

    Affect the first one as default in the master data, and define the second one as a special G/L indicator?
    answer-> using alternative reconciliation account functionality or special G/L Function.
    3.Do you know if there are some recommandations regarding the special G/L indicators use? Can we create easily as many      special G/L codes (and accounts) as we want? Or do you have a best practice?
    you can use A--Z; 0-9. If not enough, some customers are using "=, <, (, !, $, &, -" ect.
    In you case,suggest you to use alternative reconciliation account function.
    Alternative reconciliation account can be maintained in Tcode:OBXY), and in FS00, tick the u201Crecon. acct ready for inputu201D flag for reconciliation account which is maintained in Tcode:FD02, then go to Tcode FB01, when you enter customer line items, the reconciliation account can be changed.
    Hope above information can help you solve your issue.

  • How to configure to generate two accounting documents for Mvt 645

    Dear Experts,
    I read all documents related to STO one-step procedure (mvt 645). They said that the system generate two accounting documents for 2 company codes (receing and issuing company codes) after goods issue reference to DO.
    However, after configuration one step procedure and test my system, the system only generated one accounting document for receiving company code, not for issuing company code. In Material document, I saw 2 Mvt 645 and 101. In the lines having Mvt 645, I saw G/L account of cost-of-goods-sold.
    Could you please to show me how to generate two accounting documnets automatically after goods issue referent to DO with Mvt 645?
    Thank you so much,
    Best regards,
    Anh Duong

    My configuration steps are:
    Step 1: preparation:
          create customer and vendor master
          extend sales & purchasing views for material master
    Step 2: Assign customer number and the organizational units (sales organization, distribution channel, and division) to the Supplying plant and Receiving plant
    IMG --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Set up Stock Transport Order --> Define Shipping Data for Plants
    Step 3: tick on column "One step" for the line of supplying, receiving plant, and PO type cross transport order
    IMG --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Set up Stock Transport Order --> Assign Document Type, One-Step Procudure, Underdelivery Tolerance
    Step 4: assign delivery type NLCC for PO type cross transport order
    IMG --> Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Set up Stock Transport Order --> Assign Delivery Type and Checking Rule
    These above steps are in MM module.
    Please help me,
    Thank you,

  • Invoice Posting with two accounting documents for Service PO

    Hi Gurus,
    We have created one service (GR based Invoice verification) PO for which we have assigned a costcenter which has been created for different company code(rather than what company code we have mentioned in PO).
    Now during Invoice creation out of 6 invoice entries only one Invoice has been created with two accounting documents for two different company codes, when we found this and canceled the same only basic entries has been reversed.
    I just wanted to know how this single invoice has been created with two different accounting documents for two different company codes.
    Please guide me in this regard.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ravindra C.M

    Hi Aasif,
    Thanks for your reply, if that would have been case then each Invoice created for that PO should have two accounting documents but out of 6 invoice created only one invoice has been created with two accounting documents.
    I am completely agree with you that it has posted as inter-company transfer but why only one invoice has been created with two accounting documents.
    In addition to the above I just wanted to know if for GR-based invoice verified PO if we create a Invoice before creating service entry sheet whether two accounting documents will be created as we have mentioned different company code costcenter.
    Please guide me in this regard.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ravindra C.M

  • API for loading Bank account details for the Customer

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me what is the API that needs to be used for loading bank account information for the Customer?
    Thanks
    GM

    Hi,
    Were you not able to achieve your requirement with Customer Interface Program?
    There is a interface table 'RA_CUSTOMER_BANKS_INT_ALL' which is used to store customer bank account information. Run the program after inserting the records into this table.
    I guess, there is no public API.

  • Two Mobile Server for one Backend ?

    Hi,
    we need two Mobile Server. One for internal access and one for external access.
    Is it possible to have two Mobil Servers for one backend system and can I sync all the config between this two servers ?
    Regards,
    Gerald

    Hi
    Yes, you can mirror on the hardware,DB and OS level.
    This is not possible with your mobile server.
    <i><b>One for internal access and one for external access</b></i>
    For external access you can expose one of the IP's as a static IP and for internal Access you dont need to expose it.
    If you are planning to have two Servers then you will have to get as many licenses from SAP.

  • Two deliveries required for one sales order

    Hello Friends,
    I have a quirey , I have two types of goods in one sales order, one is dangerous goods and other one is normal. How ever we are thinking to make two seperate deliveries even they are in one sales order. How can two diff deliveries gets created.
    We are planning to create new shipping point with new loading group for the dangerous goods .
    Will the above decision works or is there any simplest way to create two auto deliverys for one sales order.
    Reg.

    Hi all,
    I have yet another proposal - using copy control and adding there dangerous goods profile LIPS-PROFL as split criterial. This field is populated originally from material master MARA-PROFL field.  You can check for example routine FV50C201. Split criteria are defined in likp-zukrl field.
    I think that is better solution then introducing new shipping point. Because there are some determinations and dependencies related to shipping points. So the more shipping points you have, the more additional config you have. If it is needed by business to have separate shipping points - then fine. But if the goods are shipped from the same place, then I would rather modify copy control instead of multiplying config and master data. I say duplicated effort in master data - because with 2 shippiong points you would need to maintain DG profile field and additionally loading group.
    Kind regards

  • DIFF SALES GROUP FOR ONE CUSTOMER

    Hi All,
    i want to know in CMR v can maintain only one sales group for one customer then how can v possibly maintain 3types of sales group for one customer, for its condition records to be differentiated for pricing.
    Thanx for reading

    hello again.
    actually, you can.
    let's say you have 3 sales areas...(sales org + dist chnl + div)
    1000 + 01 + 01
    1000 + 02 + 01
    1000 + 03 + 01
    you use VD01 or XD01 to create CMR for customer nr A1001, in sales area 1000 + 01 + 01.  you use the same t-codes to extend the customer A1001 in 1000 + 02 + 01 and 1000 + 03 + 01.  so 3 CMRs using only 1 customer nr.
    let's say further you have 3 sales groups (which you assign to sales office and sales area).  these are:
    A01
    B01
    C01
    you can then have the possible arrangement below:
    1000 + 01 + 01  =  A01
    1000 + 02 + 01  =  B01
    1000 + 03 + 01  =  C01

  • I have two accounts and for both accounts I use the same emails. I cannot verify my email on my main account because of this. Help? Can I just cancel my other account to avoid confusion?

    I have two accounts and for both accounts I use the same email. I cannot verify my email on my main account because of this. Help? Can I just cancel my other account to avoid confusion? I am totally stuck now.

    By the sounds of it you have linked Email Accounts, if so this means that you will both recieve the majority of the same Emails, and if you do and you read them on your account (which is linked with your husbands) then they will appear to read on the both of them because they are linked. With the majority of Email providers these days they're Emails are (simplified) in the cloud you could say, meaning that if you read or delete shared Emails then it will do the same on both accounts rather than just the yours.
    I hope all that made sense, sorry that I couldn't be of anymore assistance.. If you havent already try googling your problem - you may find some answers on there

  • Bank Transfer file: generate two outgoing files for one pmt method?

    Hello Experts,
    Two files (header and item) are expected from the hungarian bank for each payement.
    It's possible to generate two outgoing files for one pmt method using DMEE tree? If yes, can you tell me how?
    If not, there is an other solution? Use a classic program (copy and adaptation) for example?
    Thank you in advance.

    Are you sure you need separate files file header and items.
    Usually both header and items are placed in the same file. Please reconfirm or get the formats from the Bank.

  • Import Two Price Lists for one item

    Hi all,
    How we can import two price lits for one item and how to link it.
    For eg.
    Suppose Item A is having price 100 Rs today at 11 am
    and its price changes to 150 RS at 1 Pm.
    how we can do this.
    We also want to see the last price of that item.
    Reply
    Thanks,
    Neetu

    Neetu,
    What do you mean by changing?  Does the Item price flactuate throughout the day every day..if so you need to create a routine to import/update the pricelist constantly.
    If the 11 am and 1 pm are constant times when the prices change then you can maintain a pricelist for each one of them.
    Shooting for a solution without knowing the business background can be a bit wasteful.  If you might want to throw some light on the type of business and what the prices are for..
    I also see you have posted the same question earlier..Price Updation
    I would suggest that you post only one thread for one question.

  • Two item renderer for one datagrid column?

    hi

    karthik.k

    Hi,
    I think your requirement can be completed by using ViewStack you can pass selected index to it according to requirement.
    See:
    <itemRenederer ...
         <viewstack selectedIndex = 0 ...>
              <vBox id="vBox1" >
                        Your 1st itemrenderer will come here....
              </vBox>
              <vBox id="vBox2" >
                        Your 2nd itemrenderer will come here....
              </vBox>
         </viewStack>
    </itemRenederer>
    You have to just toggle selectedIndex.
    Thanks
