Need to add multiple company codes to user accounts.

I am new to SRM 5.0. I have been asked to add all Non-US company codes for two users. Do I have to add it through PPOMA_BBP - under attributes-- select company code and add it there. If so, I have at least 35 Non-US company codes to add. I cannot select them all. Do I have to add them one by one. Or is there any other process? Please advise if I am doing it correctly.

Hi
If it is specific to the two users then you need to assign one by one this is the only why. But if it for then you can maitain that root leve.

Payroll Posting to multiple Company Codes in FI and CO possible?

Dear experts,
I need your help on the following challenging issue with respect to payroll posting to accounting.
Is it possible for a payroll that runs in one company code for all employees, to post to FI and CO for multiple CoCds?
Example:
WT 1234 exists in HR CoCd 1000 (assume an amount of u20AC 100 in the payroll results)
G/L ABC exists in FI CoCd 1000
G/L DEF exists in FI CoCd 2000
CCtr xyz exists in CO CoCd 1000 (which is the employee's master cost centre)
CCtr uvw exists in CO CoCd 2000
The wage type should be mapped as follows:
+ 100 to G/L ABC and CCtr xyz (this is no problem, is realized with standard mapping)
- 100 to G/L DEF and CCtr uvw
The challenge is in the fact that the credit amount should go to another company code than the debit amount.
How can I realize this?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Jeroen

This is from SAP documentation:
Cross-company code transactions are characterized by the fact that payables are assigned to a company code other than the one in which the corresponding expenses arose. This results in receivables and payables between company codes.
If you want to post these receivables and payables to company code clearing accounts, you must make the settings in several steps, as outlined in the following.
Note that in the case of separate HR/AC systems, posting to company code clearing accounts can only be implemented if the AC system is in Release 4.5A or higher.
For more information on cross-company code transactions and business considerations, refer to the SAP Library under Payroll -> country -> Subsequent Activities -> Posting to Accounting -> Special Business Requirements for Posting -> Cross-Company Code Transactions.
Settings for Posting to Company Code Clearing Accounts
1. In the step Define Symbolic Accounts, you must assign an account determination type to each symbolic account in Human Resources. For specific postings to balance sheet accounts, the account assign types FL and FO are used. From a technical viewpoint, these account assignments are defined as follows:
Wage types that are assigned to a symbolic account with account assignment type FL are posted in accordance with the information from the last period in the WPBP table (Work Center Basic Pay) for the current original result.
Wage types that are assigned to a symbolic account with account assignment type FO are only used for posting in the evaluation of a current original result.
2. In the step Define Posting Characteristics of Wage Types, you must assign the symbolic accounts with the account assignment types FL and FO to the corresponding wage types:
You assign the symbolic accounts with account assignment type FL to wage types that, in the case of retroactive accounting, contain the difference between old and new payment amounts. In countries that use the principle of origin, this usually involves wage types /551 Recalculation difference and /552 Subsequent clearing from previous month.
You assign symbolic accounts with the account assignment type FO to wage types that contain payments to employees and whose amounts do not change in the case of retroactive accounting. This usually involves wage types /557 Cash payment, /558 Payment of balance, /559 Transfer and other, country-specific wage types.
3. In the step Create Posting Variants, you must set the Post to company-code clearing account indicator for the variants that you use. Otherwise, payables and receivables between company codes are not posted to company code clearing accounts, and remain as the balance on the document split account for the company codes affected.

Entry Channel setup for multiple company codes

Hello,
I have a question regarding the entry channel setup (for external requirements in the Plan-Driven Procurement scenario)
In previous implementations, I 've created an entry channel below each company code (as the documentation says it should be). Now, for each entry channel, there was a EBP user assigned, which corresponded to an RFC entry in the backend system (I was connecting EBP to multiple backend systems)
Now, what should I do in the following scenario?:
1. SRM is only connected to one backend system
2. There are 50 company codes
Does that mean I have to create 50 users (for each channel) plus 50 RFC connections in the R/3 system (each with a different user in the backend system), pointing to the same SRM system?
I was thinking of creating an Org iD in the SRM structure at the top (which would be the entry channel), assign only ONE user to it and then fill attribute BUK with all the company codes. However, I don't know if this will work, because the external requirement process might need the company code defined in the "Function" tab... =/
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Gilberto.

Hi Proyecto Genesis,
I am also configuring the Entry channel (org unit) for multiple company codes.
I tried your logic of defining the entry channel outside company code level. Assigned the BUK attribute and extended attribute for plants and storage locations.
Also in my case the local Pur org and Pur group is defined outside the company code. Is it correct?
However the system fails to transfer the external requisition to SRM.
SLG1 displays following error message.
"No address found for partner function type Ship-To Address"
So if I move the Entry channel (org unit) under any one company code level then the external requisitions are transferred correctly to SRM.
But then the issue is the requirements are not transferred with the backend Pur Org and Pur grp. Instead they are transferred to the Pur Org and Pur grp of the company code under which the entry channel is defined.
Can you please share how do we need to define the entry channel, local pur org and pur grp for multiple company codes scenario, so that the ECC requisitions are transferred with the correct company code, pur org and pur grp to SRM?
Or do we need to define Entry channel for each company code and RFC user actually mapping the same backend system?
Please guide.
Regards,
Sandeep

Vendor Master Creation through IDoc with Multiple Company Codes

I am trying to create vendor masters sent from a 3rd party into SAP using CREMAS05 IDoc. I have the requirement that the vendor should be created in each of 3 company codes and the vendor number is internally assigned in SAP.
I create my IDoc with the general data E1LFA1M and multiple E1LFB1M & E1LFB5M Children. When I post the IDoc using IDOC_INPUT_CREMAS which uses Call Transaction, the vendor gets created for the first company code, but the IDoc errors on the vendor extension XK01 for the next company code with the error: "Fill all required fields SAPMF02K 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1".
In debugging through this, it appears that the vendor number that gets created in the first XK01 transaction does not get passed into the data for the second XK01 call and SAP tries to create a new vendor instead of extending the newly created one.
If I force the value in during debug after the initial call transaction into the variable h_lifnr, it works fine (Vendor created with multiple company codes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
-Larry

I cannot give you exact solution, but can guess why this is happening, below is what I believe.
I think Synchronous update is not happening in call transaction, second transaction is getting processed before the first one is saved, debugging it works fine, because we give system enough time to save while processing.
Generally in call transaction we have MODE, if we pass S - then synchronous update happens, in your case, you need to find the way to incorporate this.
Hope it helps.

Ravi Kishore.

Impact of Merging multiple company codes into ONE

Hi,
We are currently doing a study for a client, they have the following scenario where the client has got multiple company codes in SAP (due to some tax benefits they had initially created the company codes) now the tax benefits cease to exist and they are planning to consolidate/merge all the company codes into one legal entity. In the existing landscape all the company codes are in the same client. They are proposing to merge all the company codes into an existing company code.
Trying to understand the impact of merging on SD and would appreciate your thiughts/insights into what could be the important critical impacts of merging and what are the factors to watch out for from an SD perspective. Client has VC and MTO scenarios.
Thanks in Advance.
M

Hi,
It all depends on your strategy. Will you be creating a new Sales organisations? or continue with the existing one? Also, please check with the client as to how the existing plants in the subsidery company be treated in the holding company.
You will have to check the master data, open items, Z programmes & most importantly CIN related settings.
Hope this is helpful, please let me know if you require further inputs.
Thanks.

Can we assign 1 credit control for multiple company codes

hi,
sap gurus,
good afternoon to all
can we assign 1 credit control area for multiple company codes.
if yes can any body explain the pro's and cons of the assignment.
if no can any body explain the why?
its urgent plz.......
regards,
balaji.t
09990019711

Yes Balaji,
We can assign.
Here the risk categiry and terms of one credit control area will be applicable to all company code.
Credit Control Area
Definition
An organizational unit that represents the area where customer credit is awarded and monitored.
This organizational unit can either be a single or several company codes, if credit control is
performed across several company codes. One credit control area contains credit control
information for each customer.
Use
Credit and risk management takes place in the credit control area. According to your corporate
requirements, you can implement credit management that is centralized, decentralized, or
somewhere in between.
For example, if your credit management is centralized, you can define one credit control
area for all of your company codes.
If, on the other hand, your credit policy requires decentralized credit management, you
can define credit control areas for each company code or each group of company codes.
Credit limits and credit exposure are managed at both credit control area and customer level.
You set up credit control areas and other data related to credit management in Customizing for
Financial Accounting. For more information, see the Implementation Guide under Enterprise
Structure Definition or Assignment Financial Accounting and then Maintain credit control
area. You assign customers to specific credit control areas and specify the appropriate credit
limits in the customer master record.
Thanks,
Raja

Contract for multiple company codes

Hi,
The requirement is to process the Sales Contract for multiple company codes, the concern is
while creating the Contract document in VA41 we get the Sales area as mandatory.
How to achieve this? if we suppress or make it as optional with some kind of ABAP customisation (what it should it be? usereixt/VOFM routines or what?) would it solve the problem ? if yes ,what would be the impacts on the other transactions.
Kindly suggest.
Regards
SR

Hi
If it is a customer contract (SD contracts) then it is not possible to create the document without specifying the sales area. In the overview screen, even if the sales area is not specified, it takes the value from the 'Sold To' customer master record. If the SP exists in multiple sales areas, then the system displays the different sales areas in a popup and we have to select the appropriate one. To my knowledge, even if you manage to create the contract without those details, you cannot refer them for creating the release orders.
Thanks,
Ravi

Is it possible that we generate material requirement in MRP at company code level?

We want to generate material requirement in MRP at company code level, what is the possibility or any work around.
Thanx in Advance.

Hi Mirza
This is not possible on the standard system. The highest planning level on MRP is the plant.
It has been discussed on the following thread, where BAdI MD_CHANGE_MRP_DATA was proposed as a solution, however, the logic to be implemented on this BAdI is very complex:
MRP Run considering Stocks for Multiple Plants and Requirement maintained for Plant Cluster
If you want to know more about the BAdIs available on MRP check the following document:
BAdIs for MRP
Another alternative is to use flexible planning to plant at company code level, then disaggregate the planning to the plants and transfer the result to demand management and MRP.
See the following thread for details:

Merits and Demerits of Multiple company codes

Hi SAP Gurus,
Could you please let me know the Merits and Demerits of multiple company codes in ECC 6.0. Actually client asking for separate company codes for each production plant. Client having 20 plants (Client registered as one legal entity as per companies Act having 20 plants in different regions with in India) and wants to have separate company codes in SAP to have decentralized control of operations and period closing. Could you please let me know the merits and demerits of Multiple company codes with respect to Load on system, Extra activities/ load on man power on consolidation, complexities ect..
Thanks in Advance
Best Regards
Raj

Ray,
From the background explained by you, I feel that you should go for a single company code as they have one singel legal entity. The purpose of comapny code is to generate external reporting(mainly balance sheet & Pand L statement) as per the legal requirements.
As far as decentarlized control is concerned you can opt for configuring each plant as a separate profit center which will not only allow decentralized operations and accountability but also a flexibility from internal maangement point of view.
As far as configuration of multiple comapny codes is concerned, it will make the system too cumbersome and will have undesired complexity.
Hope this helps.

How to upload multiple company codes data for single vendor by LSMW Idoc

Hi ,
My requ is like this.
uploading data by LSMW Idoc method
In source file we have two company codes data for single vendor.
It should create vendor for two company codes.
But its not creating its showing error.
How to handle this?
Thanks in Advance.

have you ever see this docu:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/1a/178ac72d3011d3bc3500105a6588b2/content.htm
You can use the recording function to create a new object (or a new "import method") if neither a standard batch input program nor a standard direct input program nor the BAPI/IDoc method is available for a data object.
Recordings are static, thats why you cannot do such flexible things like multiple company codes at the same time.
But with IDOC method it is certainly possible, I have done it several times already.
Unfortunatly the creator of this thread did not say what error he got with the IDOC method. Maybe he will add this. Otherwise I dont think that anybody can help

One Credit Control Area - Multiple Company Codes - Credit Management

Hi All,
my client has a requirement to go for one common control area & with different company codes.
suppose if i have a customer in multiple company codes & i desire to have the credit control happening for individual company codes, is this possible???
can i use the individual limit field extensively for credit limit per individual company codes???
please pour your thoughts, i have a subsequent question too.
regards
ilango

in this case how can i have the FD32 screen differentiated for different company codes?
say for an european company code, i will have the document currency EUR & for the same customer in US, i will have it as USD.
can i have this segregated?
sorry, too many questions in single thread, but i dont want this to be tracked in different threads, Hope the moderator agrees too.

Currency setting in multiple company code.

Dear all,
we are having 3 company codes in one client.
and we have to set the Currency setting for multiple company codes.
Tcodes
S_BCE_68000174 - Enter Translation Rates
S_ALR_87003642 - Open and Close Posting Periods
it is not allowing us to set the values at a same time for different company codes by different users
it says " DATA LOCKED BY OTHER USER, ONLY DISPLAY MODE."
Pls assist
Thanks

Ask for access to delete lock entries. If access is provided, use T code sm12 to delete the lock entries.
@ Irfan you cannot do that. Only one user can use a table at a time.
It is like using an ATM. Only one person can withdraw money at a time.
