Separate data from two company code

Hello,
We have a 4.6C R3 system running from 2003. We have two company codes in this system.
For many reasons, the management decided that this system to be copied in other system, and the data from one specified company code to be deleted.
Is there any easy way to do that ?
We've thought of archiving the data, or use some mass deleting programs from FI or CO. But in logistics we didn't find any such programs.
Have you ever deal with such problems ?
thanks!

This cannot be a very simple case, and not very good idea to delete the whole company.
Think about the cross company postings, which documents are based on bot companies, etc...
Anyways, that cannot be solved with a few mouse click will be a though work, even if it possible...
Best regards
Tamá

Copy data from 1 company code to another company code

hi friends
my client has 3 company codes but now they want to close one company code for that they want to copy data from one company code to another company code after copying the data they want to delete that company code
i am fresher to sap(fico) please tell me the solution for this,
1) what is the process of copy from one company code data to another
2) what is rules and integrations for that

Company Codes are the individual identity and we have to give accounting details (Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss account) to statutory bodies so deletion of Company code or coping data from one to another is not posible and not suggested too.
Expalin your client to block all the transaction in one company code and transfer all the closing balance as per trail balance, open Purchase orders, open Sales orders, inventory valuation to another company code and start doing trasaction there.
This is the only solution as per my knowledge.

AP - One Check for Vendor from two Company Codes

Our Company would like to issue one check for a vendor in two company codes.
Configuration has the paying company code = sending company code.
So the payment proposal will want to create two checks, one for each company code.
Question --- Is there a way to generate one check for the one vendor in two company codes.
Thank you,
Jeffrey

Dear Jeffrey,
Let say there are two company codes 100 and 200, in the config, you will need to make paying company code for company code 100 = 100 and
Paying company code for company code 200 = 100.
you will need to set the Intercompany balancing account in Tcode OBYA.
Once you do this, the other process remains the same. Should you have questions, let me know.
Thanks

Copy Transactional Data from One Company Code to Another

Hi Gurus,
I have a peculiar requirement. Searched thru the forums but did not got any clue.
My client wants an Existing Company Code (ABCD), that is in use since past 2 years and have sizeable chunk of Transactional Data to be stopped for use. The requirement is to stop using the existing Co Code ABCD and Transfer all the Transactional Data to a New Company Code (WXYZ).
Any clues how to achieve this.
Many Thanks...

Thanks for your revert.
is there an easier way to de-associate the Co Code from the Chart of Accounts. I will have to convince my client on using the Same Co Code with different CoA, hope they should be fine.
I believe I will have to go thru the detailed process of Resetting Transactional Data for Co Code, even this would be massive.
What would you advise?
Thanks Again...

Hi, Paraschand G
Thank your very good solution as BC Sets. I had general knowledge on Rollout and BC Sets now.
How ever, I have a problem on creating my first BC Sets. Should I creat a BC Sets as my template via copy existing customizing data? I seen some existing BC Sets which arenot I want. We implemented big5 modules for some company codes. I want to copy one of them as my BC Sets template. I won't create it manually because I worried about I will miss some data if I select these data one by one. I cannot find out a Full-BC Sets template contains all customizing data. Could you please give me some guide. I cannot ensure my understanding of BC Sets. Please correct it if I have wrong idea.

Copying sales order from one company code to other

Hi,
I am trying to copy one sales order data from one company code to another, all the details should be same other than the company code and some fields , for this I am using std BAPI Getdetail to get all the details of sales order and passing to BAPI, CREATE FROM DAT2 , so that I create new order.
When I check the new order, I see everything same but CANCEL DATE value in the ITEM Overview is not copied, I checked the original order , it has cancel date value. The order is an AFS order with AFS tabs.
I Checked the BAPI GET Detail FM, it doesn't retrieve that information, moreover it doesn't have that field ( J3_ACADA) in the ITEM structure. I can see cancel date value in VBAP. The ITEM structure in CREATE FROM DAT2 also doesn' have that field.
I can populate using USER_EXIT but I need to get the value from original order.
How to copy the cancel date value to new order.It should happen only for the orders which I run through this report.
Any suggestions let me know.
Thanks

Hi Uma,
As my understand, the couple Tcode FS15 and FS16 is used to copy GL master data from in same client or different client.
The file attract from FS15 will be stored in SAP, not in your local computer.
And when you run FS16, the system will file this file and upload it.
Here is selection screen in FS15, you can determine the file name, and keep the batch input name as default.
After executed, the file is generated with message like below
Then, go to tcode FS16 with parameter:
You can untick "Check file only" for Production run.
When you execute it, the batch input RFBISA20 is generated.
After that, you go to tcode SM35 to check the batch input RFBISA20, excute this batch input here and check the log.

Can I transfer Time Machine data from two separate hard drives into one new one?

I'm using a MacBook Pro as my primary computer. My 500 gig Time Capsule filled up a year or so ago, so I stopped using it with Time Machine for awhile so I could keep the data from those old back-ups. There were a number of things I deleted from my computer's very limited hard drive after they were backed up to the Time Capsule. I got a 1T external USB drive last year to use as my "filing Cabinet" to store files I didn't necessarily need all the time or that were filling up my small laptop hard drive--including my iTunes library--all organized in a way that made it relatively easy for me to find what I needed, even if I didn't remember exactly when I'd filed it or what I'd called it. I got another 1 terabyte external (portable) drive last July and dedicated it to TimeMachine backups and labeled it "TimeMachine".
Over the last couple of weeks, my friend has been helping me upgrade to Yosemite and clean up my laptop hard drive. Last week he cloned my laptop hard drive to a new 1T hard drive and I exchanged it for my old drive in my computer today. All good.
Here's the issue. We replaced my Time Capsule hard drive with a 1 terabyte drive with the idea of transferring the data from the old Time Capsule (500G) drive and the newer USB 1T "TimeMachine" compact drive to the new 1T Time Capsule drive and beginning using the latter for my Time Machine backups going forward. Originally he thought we could copy everything from each of my external drives (the old 500gig drive from my Time Capsule, the USB "TimeMachine" drive I've been using since July, and the "file cabinet" files) to my computer in their own folders and then start regular TimeMachine backups to the new Time Capsule drive, thus preserving all my old data and making regular backups going forward. The "file cabinet" data was no problem at all, but when I tried to copy my USB "TimeMachine" data to my computer, I was unable to. My friend found instructions for transferring old TimeMachine data to a new TimeCapsule, but I don't know if I can transfer the data from two separate disks to the new TimeCapsule drive. I'm afraid that one set of data will supersede the other and either my newer backups or my old ones will be lost if I try to transfer both.
Are my fears justified or is there a way to insure that no such problem will occur? Of course, my data will still be on those two older drives, but that won't do me a lot of good if I can't access it when I need to. Also, the 1T drive now belongs to my friend; he used a brand new drive he'd bought for himself for my new internal hard drive and plans to take my 1T "TimeCapsule" drive in exchange, once the data has been transferred, so he will, of course, erase that drive.

Should we be able to bring up the old (500G) Time Capsule Drive to rename it using a SATA to FireWire harness and then copy the whole thing to the new Time Capsule drive?
You can copy a whole sparsebundle from one drive to another. That is not a problem. Whether you can access the sparsebundle is something you should test before you even start though.
If it's on the Desktop and I don't tell Time Machine to exclude it from backups, will it just automatically back it up?
All drives you plug into the Mac are excluded by default.. you must include them. So no problems there.. but I hope I am understanding the question.
Will both volumes or directories (which is the right term?) show up when I open Time Machine?
No, Time Machine will only open what it is told to open... or its backup default location.
You can force Time Machine to open alternative/old/no longer used backups by (now I have a problem as things have changed somewhat in Yosemite and I consider it alpha release software at this point in time). The old method was to right click on the TM icon and select a different TM backup. easy. Yosemite seems to have made easy stuff harder.
Here it is on my current computer.. clearly not Yosemite.. Right click on the TM icon in the dock.. select Browse Other Time Machine Disks.. And supply the info of where that is located. Easy. If you cannot figure it out one of the other posters here (with more patience than me for Yosemite) will help you.
Or will we have to partition the new drive somehow--is that even possible?
I am getting more lost as I go down the list.. but the TC disk cannot be partitioned.
If you have included all those USB drives in the new backup on a Time a Time Capsule.. you have made life rather hard because now your files are stored another layer deeper than they were.
So to open a file from a disk you need to open the sparsebundle.. then dig down to the drive in question and then dig down to the backup.. and all of this means Time Machine has to work perfectly which is Yosemite is a very big ask.
I thought you wanted to just backup your old drives to central location.. which means copying the files to a separate folder on the Time Capsule.
One correction I need to make to my post, which will make my strategy make a bit more sense: my new Time Capsule drive is 4T
It makes it much harder.. and I have to pose a real question of long term .. if you have put a 4TB drive in a Gen1 TC.. did you also replace its power supply because I can assure you the drive might be ok but the TC itself will not last forever.. and what happens when it dies. The Gen1 power supply is already well beyond its normal life span and the vast majority are dead. When the backup device is unreliable and the backups on it are made that much harder to get access to.. is this a great plan??
If you are going to consolidate all your old files on one disk.. a task I find understandable. I have done much the same albeit the usefulness of files made on emac running OS9 may be questioned. A disk lying in the bottom of a draw is a more appropriate place for them.
You want those files as easily accessible as possible (at the point of recovery) and not buried inside a sparsebundle.. particularly not a sparsebundle from the old TC disk buried inside a new sparsebundle.. keep files as accessible as possible as you can run searches.. and that is best done on a USB 3 (or faster ie thunderbolt) drive plugged into a new(ish) computer.. not network. And since the files are not being accessed on a daily/weekly or even monthly or yearly basis.. keeping them in actively running TC network storage.. I would say is a waste of space. That is only my opinion of course.. you might consider it highly important that files you will never look at are available any time of day or night when the urge comes to track down that elusive pimpernel email you sent 10 years ago... but I find it hard to justify. What the case.. the problem with TM and things like Mail is you cannot search it.. you must restore the whole library/files/program even before you can access it.. that makes file recovery out of a sparsebundle double step process.
So.. summary.
If you want to store files on the 4TB drive in the TC.. that is not a great strategy but it can work.. simply create a folder named.. OldFilesEMac for instance.. and do a simple copy and paste of all the file to that location. Do not use TM.. Since you have already used TM.. and from what I am reading you have already done the backup with the external drives included.. then you are going to end up needing to erase the TC and start over.. which you may not be prepared to do.. which is fair enough. (I am coming across as overbearing school master.. apologies).
TM is to backup your main OS and current files.. not files from 10-20years ago.
Please do read the issues involved in Pondini..
See his FAQ. I recommend you read through Q14-17 so you understand what is involved in recovery.
http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I also recommend you read the first couple of articles here. http://pondini.org/TM/Home.html
Particularly so you understand the complexity of Time Machine.
And the articles here. http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
Particularly Q3 on mixing data and backups on a TC.
I wish I could spend an hour or two face to face and work it out.. the whole strategy to do this.. !!

Copy Master Datas in FICo from 1 Company Code to Another --- Very Urgent

Hi Peers
I want to copy all the FI & CO master Data like G/L a/cs , Vendor Master, Customer Master, Cost Centers, Cost Elements, Commitment Items, Funds Center & Assets from one company code to another company code. Both the company codes will have same Chart of accounts. Is there any t.Code by which i can just extend these masters to my company code. Plz help. its very Urgent.
Expecting a reply ASAP.

Hi
In customization, Assign Chart of A/cs to company code there u will get the path for copying one company code to another company GL Masters.
And also the CCtrs u already assign to the first company code. Once u copy the data for one company to another automatically it will copy to another company code.
Hope this is useful to u.

Migrating 3 company codes data to 1 company code.

Hi all,
We are one legal entity, imparting educational training and operating its activities at three locations namely Gurgaon, Dehradun and
Rajamundary. In addition it has two administrative offices at Delhi and Mumbai besides a few other rented premises.
The implementation team has created one company as XYZ and created three separate company codes for each of the operational unit at Gurgaon, Dehradun and Rajamundary. All the existing company codes have been assigned to one Chart of Account. The operating units are neither independent legal entities nor are required to generate location-wise Final Accounts.
However the existing system is not meeting our requirement and we wish to operate thru one company code only.
Accordingly we plan to generate one more company code and migrate all the data from existing three company codes to this new one on a pre fix
cut off date. After that we will record all the transactions in this new
company code only and the existing codes would not be used further.
In this regard please advise us the steps required to be followed to migrate the combined data of three company codes to one company code.
Kind Regards,
Sudhanshu

please find some info on SAP SLO
Sell-off of parts of the company
A company group sells the portfolio of one of its divisions to another company. As a result, the data that relates to the sold company division must be removed from the groups SAP system, and transferred to the new owner.
With the "client separation service, SLO offers two possible approaches to the solution. Either the data that the sold part of the company needs is migrated to a new client using one of the data transfer methods (Legacy System Migration Workbench or Migration Workbench), or a client copy is created for the sold part of the company, and the data that the parent company no longer requires is removed from the client copy using the SLO service "delete company code.
Company merger
A company buys or takes over another company. The acquired company uses a different material numbering system than the buying company, for example. However, from the point of acquisition on, the same material numbers must be used, and it is therefore necessary to change the material numbers of the bought company.
With the SLO conversion service "material number conversion, the material numbers of the bought company are changed so that they correspond to the naming conventions used in the parent company. This is done using the Conversion Workbench.
Reorganization/restructuring in the company
A company was previously organized according to regions, and based its SAP system on this structure. However, an analysis of business processes reveals that a central, function-based organization would considerably increase efficiency in controlling. As a result, the controlling areas used to map the structure of the company in the SAP system must be adjusted accordingly.
With the help of the SLO service "controlling area merge and the Conversion Workbench, the old controlling areas, which were set up on a regional basis, can be merged into central units.
Optimization of business processes
In a government department, different standard charts of accounts are used for external and internal financial reporting. The duplicate work that this entails is becoming increasingly time-consuming and error-prone. The managers responsible decide that the external chart of accounts could also be used internally. As a result, the chart of account in the government departments SAP system must be adjusted to reflect this change.
The SLO conversion service "chart of account conversion makes it possible to rename or merge accounts and cost elements in the chart of account so that they meet the new requirements. The assignment table in which the changes are defined is retained in the SAP system after conversion for documentation purposes for an external audit, for example.

One vendor for two company codes

Hi Frds,

Please elaborate on this as am new to this..
Thanks,
Rashmi Ravi

Dear all,
SAP allows You to create a customer / vendor master data that contains information that is valid for all the Company code --> into General data.
Then there is a part, Company Code data, where You can define specific details for each Company Code.
The transaction is the same FD01 or FK01.
I hope this helps You.

Testing strategy after legal merge of two company codes

Hi All,
This is my first integration project. Please help me out with my query:
My company is going through a merger and we have merged two company codes.
for e.g. company code 1 is in ABC company and company code 2 is in XYZ company. ABC is buying XYZ company. This means that company code 1 will remain and company code 2 will merge into company code 1. They are going to bring in the open line item AR/AP data from company code 2 into company code 1.
Any of you guys who have worked on an integration project before please guide me to some documents online or state some kind of testing strategy to adopt to test after the legal merge has taken place. I am mostly looking for a strategy to test intercompany process.
Thanks,
MS

Hi
There are lot of issues that you need to take care of:
1. is there any relation bwteeen the two company codes before merger. have they done any transactions between them? If yes, what wewould be the accounting treatment for the same. Would it be transferred at cost or Cost+Price (Transfer Price)
2. If you are in India, there would be effects of taxation like excise and vat calculations
3. One of the most important issue, is that of the new fiscal year. What strategy would you follow for the merged entity? In Sap, changing a fiscal year is a critical issue. Request you to refer SAP Help for the same. There are notes available for the same
4. What would be the strategy for Asset valuations? Are there different asset valuation procedures followed in the two company codes?
Thanks & regards

Merge two company codes

Hi All,
This is my first integration project. Please help me out with my query:

for e.g. company code 1 is in ABC company and company code 2 is in XYZ company. ABC is buying XYZ company. This means that company code 1 will remain and company code 2 will merge into company code 1. Currently they feed account cumulative balances from company code 2 into company code 1. But they want to stop that and move out the current balances and bring open line item data.
I want to find out some kind of strategy on how to move the current balances and bring in the open line item AR/AP data from company code 2 into company code 1.
Please help me out with this.

hi,
Check the possibility of uploading the balances of the merging company code into the existiong company code. For this you may have to to some customization like asset transfer date & have to uplaod the master data.
