Trading Partner field in GL entry

We are in ECC6.
We want to enter manually the 'Trading Partner' field in certain GL postings.
But when we enter the GL document using F-02, this field is not appearing for input. We looked in additional data fields also. But not available.
We are using a document type with 'enter trading partner' ticked.
Still the field is not visible in the GL line item for input.
Do we need to make any enhancement for bring this field in document entry ?

Dears
We got it. We had not set the tick on 'inter company postings' in doc type.
Now it is working OK
Thanks

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.

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.

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.

Trading Partner Derivatoin

Dear SAP Gurus,
I have posted debit note (DR) with journal entries:
DR Customer (Trading Partner defalted from Customer Master)
CR Sales
When I saved the document, Trading Partner in the Customer Line Item is defaulted from Customer Master.
However in the Sales line item, I can't see the Trading Partner being populated.
I understand that by allowing the document Type DR and Posting Key 50 to input Trading Partner field during transaction
entry is possible.
I would like to seek clarification, if there's any way that the system can automatically populate the Trading Partner field
in the offstting entires using standard sap feature such as substitution or validation rules, or any other kind os methods.
I appreicate your help in this.
Thanks!

Hi,
Check if your document types have been customized correctly (OBA7):
- Box 'enter trading partner' : for document types that allow intercompany postings
- Box 'Intercompany postings' : for document types that allow the posting of several trading partners in one document => the trading partner has to be entered in each line item that require it. This box should not be activated for invoicing document types (an invoice is mono trading partner)

DOCUMENT SPILTTING ON BASIS OF TRADING PARTNER(VBUND) FIELD

Dear Friends
We are on ECC 5.0, we have activated document splitting on BUSINESS AREA basis..
As for new requirement for consolidated financial reports, we have also added TRADING PARTNER(vbund) field for document splitting ..
We have define companies(trading partner), assign them to relevant customer and vendor master.
Also have tick INTER COMPANY POSTING AND TRADING PARTNER field in document types(OBA7)
in documents, with vendor and customer relevant line items trading partner is coming automatically..
for G/L related line items we want that trading partner should come automatically through document splitting ..
please note that we cant assign trading partner with G/Ls in chart of accounts as same G/Ls can be used with different different trading partner at the same time..
Kindly help me in this issue..
Regards
Expertia..

Document Splitting is too complex a concept for Substitution. If you have to just copy the Business partner to the missing lines, then you can use substitution. But if you have more than one BP in any entry and the transaction has to generate entries accordingly to balance it, substitution cannot do that.
If you are trying to split on any field other than Business Area, Profit Center and Segment, it involves a lot of work in terms of configuration and development. You have to develop your custom routine to enable splitting on your selected field (VBUND) in your case.
If I remember right, there is a consulting note which explains a brief summary of what is to be done for having Document splitting on custom fields. You can try searching Service Market place.
