Specify Account Assignment Types

Hi all...
Document split is active.
I am re-examing Account Assignment Types..
Additional Account Assignment Objects - Specify Account Assignment Types
So far I have only entered TT 100 for KOSTL for the relevant Depreciation areas
BUT retirement and depreciation transactions have all worked as expected despite not having TT entered.
IE TT 200 has not been entered in Specify Account Assignment Types but the Retirement transactions complete as expected.
So my question is whether it is necessary to enter all required TTs in the Specify Account Assignment Types?
If it is "correct" to enter them, how are the account assignments types used.
Would a rule of thumb be:
Balance Sheet accounts = APC Values Posting
Depreciation accounts = Depreciation Run.
Thanks...

Hi Thom,
no, you only need a generic transaction type " * ".
Example for KOSTL:
KOSTL Cost Center * Generic Trans. Type#Periodic Posting
KOSTL Cost Center * Generic Trans. Type#Account Assignment for Deprec

No error message when incorrect account assignment type K in PO

Hello,
When creating a PO with any raw materials, I can either enter K in the account assignment type, either let the field blank.
If there is no assignment the system will use key EIN to make the posting, if there is an assignment K (compulsory for services for instance), the system will use key VBR.
In this case (raw material), I do not want the users to be able to save their PO if the account assignment has been entered in the item (only blank account assignment type for materials dealt with in stock and value).
Does anyone have a solution?
Best regards,
Ronan

Hi,
This means ERS is active in your system.
What this means is that when you do a GRN, an ERS flag is activated in the PO header. The ERS is then settled using the PO data in SRM.
If you have not settled this (at least this is what is indicated from the message), then uncheck this flag in the PO header and then try and archive.
Cheers.

Cost Distribution in Shopping Cart for different account assignment type

Hi friends,
We are at SRM Server 5.5 at level SAPKIBKT07. Business scenario is extended classic.
User is creating a shopping cart with single line item and distributing the cost to multiple account assignments (say Cost Center and Order). Shopping cart has a valid source of supply. System creates a PO in SRM and tryu2019s to replicate the PO in ECC backend, however fails to replicate.
My understanding is that in ECC backend it is not possible to combine two different account assignments while distributing cost at item details.
Solution would be to create separate line items for different account assignments (distribute between similar account assignments).
Is my understanding right?
Thanking you in advance,
Sandeep

Sreedhar,
Thanks for your update.
I am also MM consultant, so as far as MM goes we can only maintain one account assignment type per line item. In MM we have provision of multiple account assignment but it works only for single account assignment type per line item. Which means if account assignment is "k" then we can split between multiple cost centers, but we cannot split between cost center and WBS element in one line item.
You said it is possible to split between multiple account assignments in one line item. Will it be possible for you to try at your end and let me know how PO/PR are created in backend?

SRM7 - Account Assignment Type

Hi,
We are finding the account assignment type field to be a bit problematic when creating the PO. First it defaults to "Unknown", even when we select cost centre. There is no default set in PPOMA_BBP,
We have to select it twice, then sometimes we cannot edit it at all and other times if we delete a line it still checks the value.
Anybody else experience this? I notice each time its changed it seems to run the CHANGE badi, can we disable this.
Thanks
Tony

Hi Tony,
If you are not using "Unknown" account assignment, it is better to grey it out through webdynpro development. Please check the following:
Webdynpro component: /SAPSRM/WDC_DODC_SC_I_LIM

W and F account assignment type PO

1) What is W account assignment type PO and how the network number is defined?
2) What is F account assignment type PO and how the order number is defined?

Hi
For network - SAP defined account assignment category is N. I hope W is a customized one on your system.
In PS - we have WBS (work breakdown structure) which splits the work into WBS elements and further down as networks - activities (networks comes under WBS element). If you want to create PO with reference to network then use account category as N or W. IF you want to post directly to WBS element (as consumption) then use P. Similarly Q (project stock) is also there which is similar to P, but it is for project stock not for consumption like P.
Thanks

Additional Account Assignment not working

Dear all,
I implemented Functional Area as additional account assignment. Then I entered Functional area in asset master record. When I post depreciation using AFAB, I can NOT see functional area. What would be the reason?
Best regards,
Onur

Hi Onur,
It is necessary to activate the accounting object FKBER in customizing.
CU
->Financial Accounting
-> Asset Accounting
-> Integration with the General Ledger
-> Additional Account Assignment Objects
-> Specify Account Assignment Types for Account Assignment Objects
-> chose Company code and area
Here it is necessary to enter one additional entry for object FKBER, transaction type * and assignment type 02 (depreciation run). Please do not forget to activate the flag AcctAssgnt!
With these settings the functional area can be derived early during the creation of the documents and will be shown in the list of RAPOST2000.

Meaning of error AA449 Auxiliary account assignment to asset not possible

We are having problem posting asset entries created by GJT3 - JVA Asset Retirement. Entries process successfully through cutback GJCB but post of asset entries fails with error AA449 - Auxiliary account assignment to asset not possible.
KOSTL is activated for account assignment via Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Integration with General Ledger -> Additional Account Assignment Objects -> Activate Account Assignment Objects.
I added KOSTL for all TTypes in Specify Account Assignment Types for Account Assignment Objects (ACSET). This did not fix the problem.
Can anyone help please? I have searched all forums and OSS on error AA449 and have found no solution.
Steve

Hello Steve
I am not currently accessing SAP system, so mentioning specific T codes is difficult.
However, in SAP menu, go to SAP>FI>Asset Acctg>Master records>display
Now when u check the record, you can make out if cost assignments are completed
Now coming to dep area checking, you need to go to IMG > FI>AA>Lean implementation> depreciation area settings.
I amy be wrong, but pls recheck
assign pts if useful

How to default an account assignment in a STO?

Hello,
We have a customised account assignment type "Z"
We would like this type to be defaulted in STO's for some receiving Plants only.
Do you know if this is feasible to force the system to trigger this account assignement for a defined list of plants?
Thanks a lot in advance

It is not possible to define default Acct Assgmt cat for particular plants in STO. Instead you can make it default at client level (irrespective of doc type) for particular users.
For doing so you need to just maintain user parameter KNT with value equal to your Acct Assigmt cat. You can maintain user parameter in SU01/SU3. This means whenever this particular user run the transaction which includes act. assigmt cat will have default act assigmt cat.
Hope it might help you somewhat.
