SAP BW-BPS Company Code Security

Hello Everyone,
In BPS have an issue where the security team has to give users wide open access for company code, for loads to work. When the user is restricted to there 1 specific company code, get authorization issues. Is wide open access required, with BPS restrictions on the company code variable to limit users?
Any help is appreciated.
thank you,
Mike B

Hi
If the user should be authorized for 1 company code than the access has been restricted for that company code only. Please check the value maintained for the characteristic of "Company code" and check whether teh comapny code value is maintained or not. You may want to run a trace through transaction ST01 or RSECADMIN to check for teh Authorization checks where the user is failing on.
Thanks.

Yes,you can do subcontracting between plants of same company code.
You need to to treat respective plants as vendors.
SAP process may be
1. Create a subcon p.o (sending plant as vendor)
2. Issue material using MB1B
3. Raise challan using J1IF01 if it is excisable or else print material document(step-2) as delivery challan for reference.
4. Receiving plant will raise sales order based on p.o
5. GR material from issuing plant - MIGO
6. Process material
7. Do Delivery / PGI from receiving plant
8. Do billing or proforma invoice
9. Receive processed material based on p.o
10. Challan reconcillation(not needed if material is non excisable)
11. Invoice for subcontracting work(optional)

Company Code creation for non SAP transaction company

Hi Expert,
Need your advice.
The user requesting to create customer/vendor master data for a new inter company for their AR/AP posting.
However this inter company do not have full setup of SAP configuration (eg. GL/Cost center/Profit center).
So, could we just create a new company name for this inter company in Enterprise structure without activate the company code in SAP : Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Setting > Company Code > Set Company code to productive ?
We even adviced the user to use the 1 time vendor/customer code for the AP/AR posting (due to transaction is not frequent happen in the inter companyu). But they reply prefer create as a new company code for their inter company, for better tracking purpose.
How can we handle this kind of situation ?
thanks.
rgds,

Hi,
if you want to use the new company as an intercompany business partner / trading partner (to assign the company in customer/vendor master data) just maintain the COMPANY in SAP (not the company code). This is done in
IMG: Enterprise structure / Definition / Financial Accounting / Define company. Each company defined here can be used as trading/business partner in customer/vendor master data to create postings where BSEG-VBUND contains the IC-number.

How to identify all the information for a given company code?

Hi,
Our company provides data migration services for SAP and other ERP applications. Our customers provide us the specifications for extractions and conversions. We use one or more 3rd party tools to extract data from legacy systems into text/Excel files. Customers use LSMW to load generated files.
We just got an unusual request. This customer wants to get ALL the data from SAP for a given company code and dump into Excel. They would do some manual editing on the data and load it into a new SAP client.
In the past, customers would be more specific in their requirements. For example, they will mention Materials, Customers, Inventory, etc. In this case, the customer simply wants ALL the data for a given company code.
Q1. Is everything in SAP related to company code, either directly or indirectly? For example, can materials be filtered by company code?
Q2. The tools that we use let us extract data from SAP using SQL-like queries. How do I identify ALL the tables that I would need for a given company code?
My feeling is the customer themselves are not clear on what they really want. Perhaps they are expecting us to guide them.
I would appreciate any thoughts that you may have.
If there is a more appropriate forum for this question, please let me know.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Peter

Payroll Posting to multiple Company Codes in FI and CO possible?

Dear experts,
I need your help on the following challenging issue with respect to payroll posting to accounting.
Is it possible for a payroll that runs in one company code for all employees, to post to FI and CO for multiple CoCds?
Example:
WT 1234 exists in HR CoCd 1000 (assume an amount of u20AC 100 in the payroll results)
G/L ABC exists in FI CoCd 1000
G/L DEF exists in FI CoCd 2000
CCtr xyz exists in CO CoCd 1000 (which is the employee's master cost centre)
CCtr uvw exists in CO CoCd 2000
The wage type should be mapped as follows:
+ 100 to G/L ABC and CCtr xyz (this is no problem, is realized with standard mapping)
- 100 to G/L DEF and CCtr uvw
The challenge is in the fact that the credit amount should go to another company code than the debit amount.
How can I realize this?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Jeroen

This is from SAP documentation:
Cross-company code transactions are characterized by the fact that payables are assigned to a company code other than the one in which the corresponding expenses arose. This results in receivables and payables between company codes.
If you want to post these receivables and payables to company code clearing accounts, you must make the settings in several steps, as outlined in the following.
Note that in the case of separate HR/AC systems, posting to company code clearing accounts can only be implemented if the AC system is in Release 4.5A or higher.
For more information on cross-company code transactions and business considerations, refer to the SAP Library under Payroll -> country -> Subsequent Activities -> Posting to Accounting -> Special Business Requirements for Posting -> Cross-Company Code Transactions.
Settings for Posting to Company Code Clearing Accounts
1. In the step Define Symbolic Accounts, you must assign an account determination type to each symbolic account in Human Resources. For specific postings to balance sheet accounts, the account assign types FL and FO are used. From a technical viewpoint, these account assignments are defined as follows:
Wage types that are assigned to a symbolic account with account assignment type FL are posted in accordance with the information from the last period in the WPBP table (Work Center Basic Pay) for the current original result.
Wage types that are assigned to a symbolic account with account assignment type FO are only used for posting in the evaluation of a current original result.
2. In the step Define Posting Characteristics of Wage Types, you must assign the symbolic accounts with the account assignment types FL and FO to the corresponding wage types:
You assign the symbolic accounts with account assignment type FL to wage types that, in the case of retroactive accounting, contain the difference between old and new payment amounts. In countries that use the principle of origin, this usually involves wage types /551 Recalculation difference and /552 Subsequent clearing from previous month.
You assign symbolic accounts with the account assignment type FO to wage types that contain payments to employees and whose amounts do not change in the case of retroactive accounting. This usually involves wage types /557 Cash payment, /558 Payment of balance, /559 Transfer and other, country-specific wage types.
3. In the step Create Posting Variants, you must set the Post to company-code clearing account indicator for the variants that you use. Otherwise, payables and receivables between company codes are not posted to company code clearing accounts, and remain as the balance on the document split account for the company codes affected.

PO vendor not in company code

Hi,
We have two company code in SAP, these two company codes share the same purchasing org. For one vendor exist in company code:A, not exist in company code:B, it is still successful of using this vendor to create a PO of company code:B.
It is stranger, is this a SAP standard behaviour? Any customizing to stop this?
Thanks

Yes, because at the time of PO creation, it just checks the purchasing organization data in vendor master.
In your case, same purchsing organization is responsible for both the company code, so PO creation allows for both company code
If you want to restrict the PO creaion for other Company code then create a seperate Purchasing Organization for other company code.

Dummy company codes have bank accounts and a bank statement is uploaded in to SAP for them for few entries monthly.
Now the rerquirement is>>>>We need to create couple more dummy company codes only for financial entries(loan adjustment entries) like existing one's where the bank statement upload has to happen like existing one's.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW

Hello,
1.Which is the simplest&best way to create new dummy comapny codes?
Copy from the existing company code
IMG ==> Enterprise Structure ==> Definition ==> Financial Accounting ==> Edit, copy, delete, check company code
2.Is there any precautions we need to take when creating new company codes,so that exsiting company codes functionality is NO WAY disturbed?
If you company in a proper way, it wont disturb your existing company code, unless you disturb existing config.
3.What settings I need to make for bank statement upload?
Manual Bank Statement Upload: IMG ==> Financial Accounting ==> Bank Accounting ==> Business Transactions ==> Payment Transactions ==> Manual Bank Statement

Some of the key points you need to consider are:
1. Will the new co code share the same Chart of Accounts and Controlling Area
2. Will there be parallel reporting required in the new co code
3. Will the Tax Proceduire be same?
4. Will there be consolidation between the new co code and previous three co codes
5. Will there be any sales/purchase transaction between the new co code and the other three co codes? If yes, how will they be accounted?

7. How will intercompany transaction should be posted?
8. Wiill the chart of Depreciation be same for the new co code as the previous co codes

How to use Cross Company Code document number as Reffrence.

Hi
Actually user wants to post the same debit credit line items with Editing the amounts which he has posted last month
So i suggested him to use post refference of the previous month document number.
Since that is Cross company document number. There is no source to give in T.Code FBR2. There is a fecility to give only document number of a company code not cross company code.
Assume that there are 3 company's involved in that document.
company X --- 25 line items
company Y -- 75 line items
Company Z -- 100 line items
Since he given in header data X Co code it has generated the Cross company code document number 1000X 08 ( which means 1000 is doc.number X is company code 08 is year. This is sap standard cross company code doc number format)
and individual document number is
X - 1000
Y- 2000
Y- 3000
If he post with the reffrence of X company only 25 lines will come remaining 175 line he as to post manually.
If he take Y Doc number only 75 lines will come
If he take Z Doc number only 100 lines will come
To bring all lines there is no provision to give Cross company Doc number.
Please advice how to use cross company doc number as refference.

Document splitting issues in Cross company code scenario

Hi
We have the following business scenario:
(Please note : Document splitting with Real time CO-FI integration is active)
1)one company(say, Co.code X) purchases on behalf of another group
company(Co.code Y)
2)the cost center of Co.code Y is given in the 'Account assignment' tab
in the Purchase order created in 'X'.
3)The PO is created in foreign currency
4)So, when the Goods receipt happens, the expense posting is happening
in Co.code Y and the GRIR entry is in X.
5)When the invoice is posted in co.code X, the Vendor Open item (in
foreign currency) gets created in X.
6)The problem occurs when Forex.valuation is done for the Vendor open
item. The Forex.gain/loss is getting posted in Co.code X by deriving
the Cost object from the expense posting in Co.code Y. Now, the system
is giving an error message 'CO object doesnt belong to X co.code'
I beleive this is the way document splitting normally works by deriving
the CO object form the original expense posting onto the subsequent
documents but I guess, it is failing in this scenario. Please let me
know if there is a work around to resolve this issue.
Regards
Ravi

We normally do the independent splitting of documents in respective company codes (This being the limitation mentioned by SAP for cross company code postings).
In the document split configuration, for Define document splitting rule, check for the leading item for cross company code transactions, and check for the item categories to be edited. The following two entries will be there
1100 Company Code Clearing CC = CC of leading item
1100 Company Code Clearing CC <> CC of leading item
In case of independent splitting, remove the first entry and check.
Thanks and Regards,

Valuation at company code level

Hi friends! How to configure valuation at Company code level?

use t.code: OX14
You define the valuation level by specifying the level at which material stocks are valuated. You can valuate material stocks at the following levels:
Plant level
Valuation must be at this level in the following cases:
If you want to use the application component Production Planning (PP) or Costing
If your system is a SAP Retail system
Company code level
The decision you make is valid for the whole client. You are recommended setting material valuation at plant level.

Defaulting Business Area on IT0001 based on Company Code

All - My company wants this field ( GSBER maintained in Table TGSB) to default on IT0001 based on the Company Code. Is there a way to do this, since I see no table in SAP that links Company Code to Business Area. Additional Requirement is that all non-employees ( EE Groups) will not have a Business Area mapped to their IT0001, instead it should default to "not assigned".
Can a custome feature be built in this case based on Molga>Company Code>Employee Group or can you experts provide some recommendations.
Thanks a milion.

Hi Niti,
For PBAS0001 enhancement - EXIT_SAPFP50M_001 function - ZXPADU01 include, write a code like the one below:
IF INNNN=INFTY EQ '0001'.
DATA: wa_P0001 like P0001.
CALL METHOD CL_HR_PNNNN_TYPE_CAST=>PRELP_TO_PNNNN
EXPORTING
PRELP = INNNN
IMPORTING
PNNNN = wa_P0001.
CASE wa_P0001-BUKRS .
WHEN '0001'.
wa_P0001-GSBER = 'B001'.
WHEN '0002'.
wa_P0001-GSBER = 'B002'.
ENDCASE.
CALL METHOD CL_HR_PNNNN_TYPE_CAST=>PNNNN_TO_PRELP
EXPORTING
PNNNN = wa_P0001
IMPORTING
PRELP = INNNN.
ENDIF.

One accountant process several company code

Hi,
Previously, our SAP server has only one company code, so all accountants do not need to switch between company codes.
Now, we will have another company code set up, but the accountant is same, which means whey will do transaction in SAP for two company codes. They need to switch between company code, and may enter doc to wrong company code.
We cannot limit by authorizaiton object-comapny code, as all the accountant will process for two company codes.
Do you have any advice how to prevent accountant enter doc to wrong company code?
Thanks.

Hi,
if a SAP-User is allowed to work within differnet organizational units (company code, controlling area, plants,...) there is not authorization check possible.
The accountants I know which are working for several company codes plan their tasks company code wise. That means (example) first they post all incoming invoices for comp. code A, after that comp. code B, on monday they make payment run for comp.code A, on tuesday for B,...
Nobody of them has problems with documents posted in the wrong comp. code.
Best regards, Christian

Multiple dispute case types for one company code

Hi Experts
I am trying to design a solution for external system interfacing with SAP FSCM. Requirement is to create dispute cases for short pays automatically using program FDM_AUTO_CREATE (which is normal standard SAP process). We are also creating complaints in third party system based out of our data from SAP. When these are getting created in third party, we need to interface back into SAP and create Dispute (against compalint created in third party). I am thinking of using program FDM_AUTO_CREATE to create disputes based on company code/document number/fiscal year/line item etc.
To differentiate between disputes and complaints i am proposing to create new case type (other than dispute case type) and have its own number range assigned to it, so that it can be easily recognised in SAP. But as per standard SAP setting one company code can have only one default case type assigned to it and whenever i create cases using FDM_AUTO_CREATE, system always picks up only one case type.
Is there any standard setting so that system can create complaint cases in SAP with different case type (other than default dispute case type) while using auto create program?
Thanks in advance
Aleem

This is an common question when implementing SAP TCM for trade promotions where claims/ disputes go to CRM for approval.
We have overcome this by leaving the standard dispute case type in the default settings. We then activate a BAdI - FDM_AR_DEF_CASE_TYPE. We create a Z table that we linked to in the BAdI - that had company code and reason code - and put the additional case type in the table linked to a reason code. By adding a reason code (FI-AR) to the specific items, when you create the dispute it will call the BAdI and table and use the extra dispute case type as opposed to the standard one.
