Sort Key indicator

Hi
i am facing a problem related to sort key indicator. i am using sort key indicator 012 i.e. vendor number in TDS Gl account so that it will show the vendor number in TDS gl account line item assignment field. but the system does not show the vendor number in assignment field.
secondly when i choose withholding tax base at the time of line item display of TDS gl account, system shows blank in that field.
how i can get both the values in TDS gl account.
regards
Deepak

You will need to create a substitution rule that will place these into your fields.  Vendor is not in the GL line. You can export the values to memory and then import them to the lines you wish. If the information you want appears in your BSEG line item you can do substitutions without exports.
pls assign points if helpful as a way to say thanks.

  • Sort Key in G/L Acounts and Customer MAster Records.

    Dear SAP Guru's,
    What is the specific use of the Sort Key?How will this effect the Line item entry in FBL5N?
    In our Company The G/L Accounts the sort key is maintained As 000  Allocation Number.
    _Also In Customer Master-->Company Code Data
    The Feild sort key : It is maintained "000" Allocation Number _
    If I change the sort key Now after 1 year of several records updated Will the System sort according to the changed sort key?
    I want the sort key to be document Number Now after a year will the previous records be shown with the immediate effect.
    I have gone through this link.

    Sort key field is also known as Allocation field.
    The u201Callocation fieldu201D is populated automatically onto line items, during document entry, based on the default sort indicator set in the master record.
    When you display or change line items, they are displayed in a standard sort sequence as per sort key defined in master records.
    Sort key is defined in G/L master, Vendor master and Customer master. The key defined here is taken as the default key by the system when you want to display the line items pertaining to that account.
    The sort key determines what is populated in the allocation field upon posting.
    Changing the sort key will only change future postings not already existing line items.

  • XK01 - creating vendor - Recon. Account No., Sort Key, Older Currency

    Dear Consultants,
    In sixth screen of XK01 while creating Vendor , two fields appear ,i.e., Recon. Account & Sort Key ,
    ( 1.)    How to Create Recon. Account number , that is , GL No. ?
    ( 2.)    How to Create a new Sort Key ?
    In tenth screen of XK01 while creating Vendor, a field Older Currency appears ,
    ( 3.)    How to add Currency ? eg:- Chinese Yen

    Hi,
    Recon Account: The reconciliation account in G/L accounting is the account which is
    updated parallel to the subledger account for normal postings (for example, invoice or payment).
    For special postings (for example, down payment or bill of exchange),this account is replaced by another account (for example, 'down payments received' instead of 'receivables').
    The replacement takes place due to the special G/L indicator which you must specify for these types of postings. - Please take a help of FICO consultant it has certain financial implication.
    Sort Criterion: Vendor sort criterion for materials
    Controls which criterion is to be used to sort the delivery items of a vendor in goods receipt.
    You can use this to make the sorting of the shipping documents of the vendor identical to the sorting of the items in goods receipt processing.
    Please specify the requirement on what basis you want to sort the materials. As these are standards sorting rule.
    In this regard if need further output, please take a help of ABAP consultant.
    Order currency: SAP provides all standard currency. Please press f4 and select the required currency.
    Hope this is clear for you.

    Hi All,
    in the master data (control data) of the G/l account XXXXXX (it's a reconciliation account) I've filled in the sort key the value ZZ1 (XBLNR).

    Posting a document, I need that the Assignment number is equal to XBLNR.
    How could I obtain this?

  • Importance of the Sort key?

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    I have posted g/l transaction (gl with out sort key), In open item report assignment no only missing.
    Just clarify what is the importance of sort key & assignment no?
    In sort key I am finding different no (i.e 001,012,018) can any body tell me what the logic behind this numbers?
    While creating vendor master If give the customer sort key , in customer open items  assignment  no not updating ..other than this,   Is there is any difference ?
    Thank You
    Ramakanth

    Hi...if i am not wrong as the name specifies sort keys are used to sort the line items.... as u said there are differet options  for sort key each one sorts the line item in particular  manner ...that is one sort key tells that the line items are displayed according to the date ...in some like customer reconciliatio account the sort key sorts the line items according to  customer numbers instead of date because the sorting of line items for customer records is given in corresponding cutomer master record.... and generally customer/vendor reconciliation accounts are not flagged for open item management because in real time a customer/vendor reconciliation has a number of line items and if these are flagged for open item management this may limit the system capabilith as it utilizes lot of system resources to pull up all the line items from all the customers ... hence the accounts corresponding to each customer are displayed rather than all the line items....

  • Sort Key .... where we can see the activity in GL, Vendor, Customer mater

    Hi gurus,
    what is the use Sort key,
    where we can see that activity.  in GL Accounts, Vendor, customer master sort key where we can see effects. what is the use, how it will sort, where i can see.
    Thanks  for your reply.
    Anil

    Dear Anil,
    Sort key is the one that fills the "Assignment field" of a line item automatically.
    For example, for the GR / IR accounts, we normally give the "Purchase Order" as the sort key. This will make the line items in the GR/IR account to be filled with the Purchase order and the Item number.
    The automatic clearing (F.13) works with the assignment field. In case the net of two line items (Dr - Cr) is equal to zero and the assignment field of these two lines are the same, then the system will automatically clear these two lines. Hence "Sort key " fills the assignment field and is very useful in automatic clearing

  • EXPLAIN SORT KEY IN G/L MASTER

    Can anyone tell in detail what is the use of sort key in G/L master. When we choose to sort suppose by posting date, what is its impact on a G/L document. I am still not clear on this.
    Another question what is the field Open Item Managed used for in G/L master. Explain in detail on this one too.
    Thanks
    Lakshmi

    <b>This is the function of SORT KEY. Pl let me know if you require more info</b>
    The system uses a standard sort sequence for displaying line items. Among other things, it sorts the items according to the content of the Allocation field. This field can be filled either manually or automatically (by the system) when a document line item is entered.
    For this purpose, the system requires rules that determine which information is to be taken from the document header or from the document line item and placed in the field. The rules can be stored in the master record of an account which enables you to determine the standard sort sequence on an account-specific basis.

  • Sort Key

    in GL account we maintain sort key 010  but the line item report fbl3n not display sort key wise.

    Hi,
    The purpose of the sort key is for two purposes:
    If you maintain the sort key in GL Account:
    Assignment field in line item report FBL3N would automatically be filled with this sort key.
    Second this is you can sort or sub-total on this assignment field.
    Hope this helps you.

  • Assignment in Billing document displays different value than sort key

    Hello,
    The billing document is generated from VBRK where no manual intervention is possible. The accounting document which gets generated is directly posted in system.
    Sort key is used to fill up the assignment field at line item level. In case we have a sort key defined at the GL account at company code level & also at Customer account at company code level system will give priority to the customer sort key.
    In our case we have 2 customers where the settings are identical at both GL account & customer master at company code level.
    The sort key has been defined as posting date at GL account level & Document number + fiscal year at customer level.
    Hence system always updates assignment field with Document number, fiscal year.
    However in a peculiar case when we have generated the billing document in 1 case the assignment field has been correctly populated whereas in the other a WBS element has appeared.
    Could you explain from how & where this WBS element has appeared when other billing documents for the same customer are having the assignment field being populated correctly.
    Thanks & Regards
    Shreenath

    In addition to Ajay's suggestion,  please note three exchange rates you can find in billing document.  They are
    VBRP-KURSK = Document currency for Price determination which depends on the setting of TVCPFLP-PFKUR in copy control
    VBRK-KURRF = Document currency for FI postings. If you input manually in sale order field VBKD-KURRF, it is copied to above table / field.  Otherwise, this will be determined during invoice generation.  For more details see Note 36070 - Fixed foreign currency rate for Accounting document
    KOMV-KKURS = this is for local currency at Price condition level which will be determined based on pricing date.

  • Reg the Sort Key field in Vendor Master Record

    Hi MM Gurus,
    I have the requirement of displaying the Purchase Order number & Line Item number in the Accounting document of the Goods Receipt. i.e., in the "Assignment" field.
    I have made the necessary configuration in FS00 for the specific GL account & also specified 014 code in the corresponding Vendor master record.
    However, once I post the GR document, and checked the "Assignment" field, it displays only the Purchase Order number and not the Line item number.
    Kindly help me on this.
    Best Regards

    Have you posted the above document after set 014 in FS00 ?
    Can you test the same in your practice client.

  • Sort key in vendor master ..?

    What we have to select in sort key options screen...
    Please explain me clearly..
    Thanks
    sap-mm

    hi,
    use of sort key is basically for the Account person.
    when document is posted in MIRO it is liable to to pay for that vendor.
    now account person can see the list of that document in his report FB03.
    wherein he can see the reference of that document with the help of SORT KEY.
    e.g
    say if sort key is selected as PO no and Po item.
    then in FB03 he can see the
    accounting document with reference of PO no and item no in PO.

  • T.code FS00: changing the SORT KEY in the 'Control data'

    I need to change the SORT KEY in the 'Control data' of a G/L master data.
    Is there a SAP standard program by which the field 'Assignment' is updated.
    Thanks

    Sorry,
    i did't mean updating a field ...
    I meant:
    is there a program which changes the content of the field 'Assignment' according to the new content of the field 'Sort key'?

  • Error ORA-01467: sort key too long

    Hi. I have just come across the error ORA-01467: sort key too long .
    In the Oracle documentation, the 2 line
    description of this error basically says that there may be too many columns
    or group functions in the query, so I need to reduce the number of columns
    in the query.
    Here's the problem. The documentation does not say how many the limit is.
    The query is quite complex, I suppose, but I don't see why it should be a
    problem. In a nutshell, the main table has 3 text fields (which are the
    index) and 154 floats. The query joins one of the text fields to another
    table to get a lookup value and selects this out, along with the other two
    text fields and the SUM of the numeric fields. The query groups by the two
    text fields and the lookup.
    I guess I saw this when I was using MS SQL Server 6.5 and tried to sum more
    than 125 columns, but that went away in SQL Server 7. I am using Oracle 8
    at this point but need to support Oracle 7, too.
    I guess what I am looking for (at least) is the maximum number of columns
    that can be in a grouping/summing query. I'd also like to know if this can
    be worked around by changing a setting on the server, something to set the
    maximum number of sums to 1000, perhaps? I am fine with working around this
    in my software if I need to, as I have done previously (I took the first 125
    sums into a temp table, then the next 125, etc. and joined the resulting
    tables to get my results), but would really like to get a workaround that
    was server-based, if possible.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Sort key too long - maximum number of columns in select statement

    the sort key too long is caused by either too many group
    functions or too many columns selected. Does anyone know the
    maximum number of columns that can be selected in one statement ?

    The Oracle 9i reference states ...
    The GROUP BY expression and all of the
    nondistinct aggregates functions (for example,
    SUM, AVG) must fit within a single database
    block.
    ... and the Oracle 9i SQL Reference states that ...
    An order_by_clause can contain no more than 255
    expressions.
    You could check your own documentation, but i think it will
    be the same.
