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,
Armelle Rolland

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 :
-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?
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.

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.

Block Purchaisng screen for one time vendor acount group

Hi Experts,
Hope everyone is doing good.
How can we block purchasing screen for one time Vendor account group.
User requirement:
He wanted to maintain only Accounting data for one time vendor but not purchasing data.Though I have suppressed all the Purchasing related fields in Screen layout for Vendor account group but still at the time of creation of one time vendor "create Vendor:purchasing screen is coming"
Is there any option to suppress/Skip this screen "Create Vendor:Purchasing Data" ?
Regards,
Uzair

- Account group is just one of the four factors influencing the field status. (If all the fields are suppressed in a screen the screen will not appear during the creation of the VMR).
- Company Code, Transaction Used and Purchasing Organization are otehr influencing factors.
- Since the field status depend on several influencing factors, Link rules are necessary which determine the instance of the field status if different influencing factors have different effects.
- Hide has priority 1, Display 2, Mandatory 3, Optional entry 4
- Say for e.g. you want a field to be suppresses due to account group but a mandatory entry due to purchasing organization. Instance hide has the highest priority. If a field was suppresses by account group what was specified by purchasing organization becomes irrelevant.
- Display overrides Required & Optional Entry
- Required entry overrides Optional entry

One customer / vendor used to share by two company codes

Hi experts,
is there any possibility to share same vendor or customer in two different company codes?
my client have two company codes 8000 and 9000 and that two company codes sharing the same customer /vendor XXXXX.
now they want to post the two company codes transactions to one customer/vendor.
means when we open the customer /vendor line items we should able to see two comapny codes transactions of that customer/vendor.
plz advice.
Thnaq,
sandhya.

yes it is the same way the SAP suggests- provided address is same.
SAP vendor / customer has got two segments -
General data - which is common for all company codes and is at client level data and stored in table KNA1 (customer) and LFA1 (vendor)
Co code data- which is specific to company code - create as many views for each co code which are specific to co code decisions and accounting - and is stored in KNB1 (customer) & LFB1 (Vendor)
In the same way Sales organisation and Purchase Organisation also stored separately.
For creating Co code data, enter existing customer/vendor code and type co code and it will allow u to create both data.
Hope this is of help to u

F110 - Mass change house bank for one time vendor

Hello,
Is it possible to make mass changes for payment program for one-time vendors? I would like to change bank account from where do I want to pay something to one-time vendor. As far as I know, it isn't possible to change it that way, it is possible only one per one.
Does anyone have Idea how to resolve this issue?
Thank you in advance!

I can do it but one per one in payment proposal. I can't do it mass. The issue is that I have huge number of one time vendor payments per day and some of them should be paid in one house bank and some of them in some other house bank.
I tried to change it with FBL1N but I couldn't do it.

International version for one-time vendor

Dear all,
is it possible to bring out the international version screen when booking the one-time vendor invoice?
Thanks and regards

Hi Tao,
I am facing the same problem. I maintain the international address versions for TW (language ZF - Chinese tranditional). It works just fine for regulat vendors, however when it comes to a one-time vendor (account group CPD), I can only enter either the English or the Chinese name in the one-time vendor screen, during the invoice entry.
I checked the international version is maintained in FK02 of the one-time vendor. Where and how do I enter the vendor name in EN anf ZF in the same document?
I also am struggling with the account holder field, which is unavailable for one-time vendor.
Please advise.
Thank you,
Inna

Steps:
1.     Need an account group: SPRO-FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING-Vendor accounts-master data u2013 preparations for creating vendor master data-define account group with screen layout for vendors. Here we need to give the account group code, and name and also need to select the one time vendor check box. Once we select the check box the field status are set for the one time vendor
2.     Create number ranges u2013SPRO-FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING-Vendor accounts-master data u2013 create number ranges for vendor accounts. Give the number range or we can also select any exisiting number range and assign to the vendor account group.

Reconciliation account ready for input

Dear All,
While creating GL, if it is a recon account, then it is picked up form the Account Type (ie) either vendors/debtors/assets.
What is the use of 'Reconciliation account ready for input', Will there be any other recon items other than vendors/debtors, etc.
Please clarify,
JEERI

Dear,
Reconciliation account ready for input at time of posting - Indicator which determines that the reconciliation account is ready for input when posting a document. The indicator is used in Financial Assets Management like when you make initial load of the asset balances the balances are being posted to Asset Sub-Ledger but not to the GL Account.
Hence, in such cases, you are required to Reset the Reconciliation Accounts in OAMK and post the same entries into GL Account that you have loaded to Asset Sub-Ledger and then again make them as Reconciliation Accounts.
Note: On the other hand Reconciliation Accounts are only mean for posting by the System, but when you select the "Recon. account ready for input", it would become like a normal account, it will allow you to post directly, this would invalidate the integrity of the data. Therefore, you should never put the check box Reconciliation Account ready for input for RECONCILIATION accounts.

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

Vendor down payments for one time vendor

Hi There,
I am not sure why this is happening, but when we try and post a down payment to a one time vendor, it comes up with the error F5 265.
When we do this for a normal Vendor it is OK.
Has anyone come across this?
Is there some special config required to activate one time vendors for Down payments?
