Trading partner' field (ANLA-VBUND) on asset master data

Dear experts,
I have informed field Trading partner' (ANLA-VBUND) on asset master data but we have notice that, in our system, it has not got any function on an accounting level.
Trading partner is not informed in documents like:
CR - Loss
DB - Asset account (with trading partner informed on asset's master data)
We only get trading partner informed in postings like:
CR - Vendor with trading partner informed in vendor's master data.
DB - Asset account
By the way, although trading partner is informed on asset's master data, trading partner is not informed on depreciation postings.
At the end, I think that my expectations around the functionality derived on field Trading partner' (ANLA-VBUND) on asset master data are not correct. I could not found any SapNote or SapHelp regarding this question.
Does any body knows what is the functionality of field Trading partner' (ANLA-VBUND) on asset master data?
Thanks in advance

Dear Brigitte,
Thanks for your answer. Looking to the documentation you mentioned above I've found the following:
AA/Asset Accounting
    * Asset transfers between company codes: If a fixed asset is transferred to another company code, two posting documents are required - one for each company code. The trading partner of each document must be set with the company ID of the other company code, respectively.
In my understanding there is no functionality regarding trading partner on asset master data level apart of transfers between company codes. Am I right?
I understand that my initial approach was not correct.
Regards

  • Use of trading partner field in GL Master, Vendor and Customer Master

    Can anybody explain in detail  what is the use of trading partner in masters.
    In GL Master, whether it needs to be updated for all the GLs or only a specific GLs.

    The Trading partner field in customer and Vendor master is used to identify the affiliated companies involved in intercompany transactions.
    The trading partner field is copied into the account receivable and payable transactions from the customer and vendor master. The Trading partner field also appears in the line items of the offsetting clearing accounts via substitutons.
    The trading partner field subsequently can be used during consolidation to eliminate intercompany receivables and payables from the balance sheet and eliminate Intercompany sales and expense figures from the P&L statement.
    Customer or vendor invoice: Trading partner information is captured from the customer and vendor master.
    Invoice receipts against clearing account and transfers with clearing: While posting Invoice receipt during an Intercompany transaction, the invoice receipt can be posted to a clearing account instead of expense account. The selection of open items must be restricted to those with a certain trading partner when posting a transfer later on, as the trading partner is copied into the transfer line item.
    Customer and Vendor Payments: If document types for payments are configured to allow for more than one trading partner in a payment document then the trading partner is copied only on the customer and vendor line item and not on the offsetting entry.
    Assets transferred between company codes: If an asset is transferred between group company codes, two accounting documents are generated in each of the involved company codes. The trading partner of each document must be set to the company id of the other company code.
    When goods are received from group company code the trading partner is picked for the inventory and GR/IR line items from the vendor mentioned on the order. If invoices are open as on the balance key date then group-internal provisions are created from the GR/IR accounts. These provisions can later be eliminated in Consolidation system.

  • Modify fixed asset master data thru migo

    Hi experts,
    I make PO with account assigment 'fixed asset'. This asset is created during the PO creation. When materials arrive more fields of that fixed asset master data are known (ie serial number). I'd like to have a way to save those data in asset during the GR without using 2 different transactions.
    In MIGO t/c i see the fixed asset number and double clicking on it i access to display asset: master data (as i was on AS03 tc).
    Do you think a way to call AS02 (change asset master data) thru MIGO exists?
    Best regards,
    Ruben

    Hi Ruben,
    Did you find a solution to your problem? I have a similar requirement.
    I was planning on using the user-exit MBCF0005 to call a pop-up screen where the user can input the serial number and from there calling the BAPI to update the asset.
    Cheers

  • Trading Partner field (VBUND) is left blank in EC-PCA historical data load

    Hello everyone,
    I have a question regarding trading partner field (VBUND) in EC-PCA. In my company we are turning on this Profit Center Accounting functionality and we need to know how to bring this trading partner field filled when we make the historical data load.
    We have tested the transactions 1KE8 (FI docs), 1KEC (MM docs) and 1KE9 (SD docs) that are used to transfer real data for GLPCA table. Unfortunately, VBUND field is left blank when using these transactions.
    This impacts the opened journal entries for AR/AP (Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable), as the ones made prior to the go-live of this EC-PCA functionality would not have this trading partner information, and the ones made after go-live would carry the information (i.e., not matching the documents).
    Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

    I worked on your issue but it seems there is no standard option to update VBUND field apart from writing an ABAP program to update GLPCA from FI documents.
    Regards
    Siva

  • Trading Partner field not transferred to receiver line items in CO.

    Hello all,
    We were facing the problem of the Trading partner field VBUND not getting reflected in the receiver line items in CO & PCA. to get around this problem SAP note 543818 & 547387 was implemented.
    This solved the problem in CO while the problem in PCA persists. If anybody could suggest an alternative it would be great
    thanks

    Hi
    when you post a enjoy transaction like in FB50, click on "More Data" if the Trading partner is an optional field in the GL master data you can input there as well.

  • Trading Partner field in G/L creation

    Hi,
    Can someone please tell me the use of Trading Partner field used G/L creation?
    Thanks in Advance.
    Sagar

    Hi Sagar,
    In Business Terms Trading partner is your business partner within Group with whom you are doing business.In order to identify Inter Company transactions Trading partner field is used. You need to define all the Group Companies as company in SAP and all the defined Companies will be available for selection in Trading partner field.  Trading partner can be defaulted in GL, Customer or Vendor Master.  If you need you can populate trading partner at Document level too by doing settings in Document Type Master in T Code OBA7.
    Trading partner is normally used to control (payment/transaction) vendor/customer business with the group. Something like group/inter group business.  You have to go to master record. for eg, in customer master, go to CONTROL DATA tab so see Acccount Control, in which you have provide trading partner number/reference.

  • Custom Field in Asset Master Data

    Dear Experts,
    I want to ask about a problem I'm having when adding a new field in Asset Master Data ( AS01 & AS02 ).
    I'm adding new field on the Time-dependent Tab. I already create the exit & the new custom field, and with the help of the functional registered the new field.
    I'm using a new installed SAP GUI 7.3 .
    The problem is that the new field doesn't appear when I access the tcode unless I click on the new field location.
    The problem seem doesn't appear in SAP GUI 7.1 & 7.2.
    Is there any setting that need to be done or this is the problem with the SAP GUI 7.3
    Thank you.

    You can go through the steps below to customize the field u2018Planned. retirement onu2019

    Note: field u2018Planned. retirement onu2019 in asset master is connected to the function u2018Simulate up to planned retirement dateu2019 in asset reports.

  • How to add new fields in asset master data

    Hello,
    i was wonder if anyone knows how to add new fields that arent defined in the asset master data.
    Thanks.
    Pedro

    Hi Pedro,
    SAP allows entering upto 8 fields on the asset master. These fields are called 'Evaluation group'. Out of 8, 4 are four character long and others are 8 character long.
    You can configure them @ the following 3 nodes in IMG:
    Financial Accounting>Asset Accounting>Master Data-->User Fields: Define 4-Character Evaluation Groups & Define 8-Character Evaluation Groups & Change Key Words in the Evaluation Groups.
