Special G/L account

Hi Everyone,
Sorry about the newbie question, but...
Is it possible to withhold taxes (IR) at payment, and post it to a special G/L account?
Many thanks,
Douglas

Thanks for the reply Ajay,
Here is the scenario. I have a condition in a RE contract, that accounting says it has to withhold tax (IR) at payment, and it has to be posted to a special GL account. I asked around, and many consultants told me what you said, that to post taxes to a special GL account doesnt make sense, but no one was able to explain me why.
On the other hand, our FI consultant said it is possible and he did the posting manually successfully thru FI. Whenever we test it thru RE, SAP shows the configured tax at payment, but doesnt bring any values.
Im not sure if this information helps, or if I should post this in the RE forum, but... Can you help me out?
Thanks!
Douglas

One time customer - special G/L account

Hi experts,
For one time customer, it seems that cannot be used against special G/L account. For e.g., prepayment cannot be made for one time customer in the system. Why? Is it the only way to use non-one time customer, such as account group KUNA?
Pls advise. Thanks.

Hi,
Check Note 19638 - Special G/L transactions on one-time accounts, as it says:
Summary
Symptom
Special G/L transactions, such as down payments, are not supported for one-time accounts. One-time accounts should be used for one-time transactions. For down payment, bill of exchange management or similar transactions for a customer or vendor, you can assume that this is not a one-time transaction. To post this type of accounting transactions in FI, you have to create a master record for the business partner.
I hope this helps you

Withholding tax type for special G/L accounts

Hi,
Is there a way to define a witholding tax type for a special G/L account type? Up now we can define a withholding tax type for a vendor, but we need to define withholds for particulars vendors/special GL accounts type combination.
What we need is each time an invoice is posted, a withold is made for the vendor only if the posting account has a particular special G/L account type associated.
I hope reqs. beeing understandable.
Any idea is welcome.
mr.

Hi
Withholding tax type for special G/L or advance payment can be created as per tax type defined for general invoice/bill entry.
But here the description will be different and '"central invoice proportionate" radio button has to be ticked.As it will help in deducting the tax which has been paid in advance.
So that balance tax can be adjusted when invoice will be entered.
Plz assign points if it is helpful.

Assignment Number for Special G/L Account

Hello,
Doing some tests in version ECC 6.0 the field BSEG-HZUON (G/L allocation number) is not being filled while I am manually inputting the assignment (BSEG-ZUONR).
When I search items in FBL3N I cant see the assignment number because the special g/l account assignment is not being filled. This doesnt happen in version 4.6c.
What could be the reason for this?
Thanks,
Alex

HI Alex,
A distinction is between reconciliation account and non-reconciliation account. For reconciliation account:-
The sort key in the master data of the G/L account fills field BSEG-HZUON. Field BSIS-ZUONR is filled via field BSEG-HZUON here.
Field BSEG-ZUONR can be filled manually or, for example, via the sort key of a customer (if it is a reconciliation account for customers Sort key reconciliation account > BSEG-HZUON > BSIS-ZUONR
Please refer to note 334466,and 676338 on how field BSIS-ZUONR is filled?
Please assign points if it useful.

Post foreign currency valuation for special G/L accounts

Dear experts,
Our client wants to evaluate the balance of down payment account after each partial clearing with invoice.As down payments are being posted by special G/L indicators, they are not able to post to the down payment account directly.
and there is no possibility to post foreign currency valuation by SG/L indicators in F-05 and FBB1 transaction codes.
Could you please tell me how we can evaluate a SG/L account directly?
Best Regards,

Hi Rezvan,
That is not possible also this is not required.
Because unrealized gain/loss we post to Balance sheet adjustment account and Fx gain/loss accounts.
We don't post any differences directly to sub ledgers.
you can use F.05 or FAGL_FC_VAL trasanction for Foreign currency valuation.
where you can have option of valuate the Spl GL too in selection screen.
Also
When you select Vendor option in FAGL_FC_VAL, program valuates all the line items including special gl items.
And this valuation difference can be posted to balance sheet adjustment account which you maintain in OB09.

Reconciliation accounts of venor and customer.

HI ALL,
Actually I have created "sundry Debtors" account as "account number "200150"
and i have posted some amount to this account. that is "RS 2070"
now i have created another account as "Sundry debtors" account as "Account Number 200111"
now i want to transfer the "RS 2070" from "200150" account to "200111" account and i want to change the "200150" account as "advance to vendors (special g/l account).
so how can i transfer that amount as a debit amount in the new account.
in customer master previously i have assigned "200150" account. and i have done only one transaction.
now i will change the reconciliation account as "200111" in the customer.
Please let me know this process.
thanks in advance.
MR.RAO

Hi MR Rao,
Yes, what Nikitha has said above is the best option.
Since you just have one posting in the customer account, it is better to reverse the document. Then, chnage the recon account in the customer master and post the transaction again.
In OBXR, assign the GL 200150 as the Special GL account for the relevant customer recon account.

Mike

Vendor and reconciliation account problem

Hello Gurus,
we have following situation.
I.e. There's a vendor with number 300000 and it has recon.acct. 45000100 in which a special amount of money was posted.
Now weve changed the 45000100 account into 45000500 in vendor master data.
We want the amount from 45000100 to post to 45000500, but when we use the TC's FB41 or FB01 the system throws an error, which says that the account cannot be used.
Is there some way of posting the amount from one Rec.Acct into other, without creating a new Vendor account?
Best regards
Laurynas Prikockis

Hello,
Please see your OBYR configuration.
For reconciliation account 45000100 you have given special GL recon account for example 123456
Now you must see that the recon account 45000500 has been assigned with a GL account 123456 or some other special GL recon. account as per your requirement.
If yo uchange recon. account in vendor master, you are required to fun F.5D. Please go through the documentation on the transaction code.

Ravi

Error occures when posting a Billing Document to alt Reconciliation Account

Dear All,
When i try to post a Invoice, for a alternative reconciliation account, an error occures saying,
Reconciliation account 50300022 or short key 00 is not permitted
Message no. F5788
Diagnosis
The system checked the entry to see whether a reconciliation account exists with the number 50300022 and whether it can be entered here, or whether the first two characters of your entry '00' form a permitted short key. Neither of these options is applicable to your entry.
System response
Error message
Procedure
Enter either a permitted G/L account number or a permitted short key.
Please help me to sort the above.
Thank U
Yasanga

Check in OBYR configuration.
For reconciliation account xxxx you have given special GL recon account for example 22222
Now you must see that the recon account xxxx has been assigned with a GL account 22222 or some other special GL recon. account as per your requirement.
If you change recon. account in master record , you are required to run F.5D.
Just my observation likes...

PO against valuated sales order stock posting to consumption account

Hi All,
I am creating a PO with account assignment against valuated sales order stock. However the posting happens to consumption account (GBB) instead of the stock account (BSX). The following settings exist
1. The material type is both quantity and value update
2. The account assignment category used in PO is E which has special stock = E, account modifier = VKA and consumption posting = E
3. The requirement class (in SD) has account assignment = E and valuation = M (even tried with A)
4. The valuation class for valuated SO stock has been maintained in the accounting view
However the system picks up the account corresponding to GBB-VKA and not BSX. Can anyone point out any setting that may be mising here.
Regards,
Ketan

Hi,
Maintain the consumption posting as blank against the account assignment used in PO in OME9 and test the scenario again.

Goods Issue with Purchase Account Management

Hi,
in one of our foreign subsidiaries we have to run the MM-Purchase Account Management. These subsidiaries will be delivered by Cross-Company Replenishment deliveries with intercompany-invoicing. Every Goods receipt for such an replenishment delivery will be posted in the receiving subsidiary, besides the normal bookings on the u2018Goods/Invoice Received clearing accountu2019 and u2018Stock accountsu2019, on additional purchasing accounts. Now itu2019s possible that the goods have to be returned to the delivering plant due to any problems. To send back the goods we use again a SD-delivery (triggered also by an MM-IC-Purchase order) and with this SD-delivery we want also to post the goods issue in the subsidiary. But as the goods receipt has been posted on these special additional purchasing accounts, the goods issue has also to be posted on these special additional purchasing accounts (The target is to correct these purchasing accounts to the ammount of the returned goods). But it seems that this is not possible because of the MM-Account determination which doesnu2019t allow to post on these special purchasing accounts with an SD-transaction. Iu2019m no MM-expert but is there any possibility to post on this purchase accounts also when posting a goods issue in SD? If not in standard, are there any User-Exits in the account determination?
Regards
Stephan

Hello Dinesh,
Batch valuation is similar to split valuation. Here is the link on how batch valuation works.

Creation Of New Sharing Account Fails

I am trying to set up File Sharing. I have an external disk attached via FireWire. I'm logged in as an Admin user. I went to System Preferences -> Sharing and added the external volume root as a shared folder. Then, I clicked [+] in the Users list to add a user. This opened a new window, and I clicked on "New Person". This is supposed to create a special "Sharing User Account" that doesn't have an actual home folder on the computer. When I enter the User Name and Password and click on "Create Account", nothing happens, and the new user does not appear in the picker list. I tried this multiple times with different user names.
I noticed in the system.log the messages below. Has anybody else encountered this problem, and if so, is there a workaround? I'd prefer not to create a dedicated user for this.
Thanks,
Chris.

I was able to find a workaround. Instead of creating the new user from within the User picker list opened from the File Sharing preferences pane, I went back to the Accounts preferences pane, and it allows the creation of a "Sharing Only" account type.
