Validation rule on Cost Object for Manual Journal Entry

Hi Experts,
We have an issue regarding General Ledger Account to be posted manually (FB01,FB50...).
For this posting the busines required only one Cost object (WBS or IO or cost center) is needed.
The problem is that I can not define a Field status group who require only one assignement, either WBS or IO or COPA.
Thus all General Ledger Account is alraedy created as Cost Element.
How can I create this validation rule ?
Thanks for help

Hi Shoeb
SAP allow only one cost object to be filled at one time in order to avoid conflicts. example- CC, WBS, IO etc. you can enter only any one of these in one particular document. how ever balancesheet items are not needed to be filled this.
Hence I guess your validation issue may be already taken care by SAP standard solution. You may keep all cost objects as optional in you Field status group so that it allow any values.
Cost elemets categoroes (primary, secondary)are different than cost object (CC, orders, wbs etc).
if you still need a validation please specify the purpose of validation. hope this helps.
best regards
Jomon

Currency conversion rule not executing for manual journal entries.

Hi,
We have currency conversion business rule set in our project. THis business rule is not converting LC to other currencies for manual journal posting entries. i.e, it is audit id with DATASRC_TYPE="M".
Can any one let me know if any specific settings are to be done for this to work?
Regards,
Swetha

Hi,
Is the currency conversion working on the other datasources?
If yes, then try to post some record through input schedule in the M datasource, run the currency conversion, and see if the currency conversion is working fine or not.

Park and Post management review step for manual journal entries

We are implementing SAP and want to discuss the best way to automate in SAP a high dollar/value (maybe $100K and above) "park and post" management review step for posting manual journal entries. I believe SAP does not offer dollar/value limits as standard functionality for defining a park & post process. If this correct, what have you seen from your other clients using SAP park & post? Is there a different way to get where we want without customizing a workflow or generating a new transaction set?

Hi you could limit the authorisation for the users only to park and then a responsible person could review it and post. You can set a tolerance limit for customers and vendors.

Audit Report Fix (Manual Journal Entries for Inventory)

Hello!
Curious if anyone has been able to fix an inventory audit report using journal entries?
For example: if an item was on inventory account 1500 based on it's item group assignment, then say 20 items are received for $1 each, then 5 are sold at $1 then the item group is switched and now it has an inventory account of 1520 and 5 more items are issued out.
Running the audit report summarizing by accounts will show $15 as the balance in 1500 and -5 in 1520. So when we go to actually check the accounts to reconcile them at the end of a period, our inventory accounts are always off.
I have identified manual journal entries meant to 'fix' a GL account, but these have made the audit report basically unusable for reconciliation.
Is there a way to journalize a change in the inventory accounts while making the change occur in OINM as well??
I have looked through several expert empowerment sessions that acknowledge this as a problem, but do not offer any solutions.
Thanks!
Mike

Hi Mike:
Changing Item groups while inventory is on hand is a problem. I have found a way to correct this, but it is a multi step process. I would try this in DEMO first to make sure you get the proper results.
Try this.
Below is the procedure for correcting the G/L Accounts on your Inventory Audit Report It is complicated and needs to be performed when no other users are in the system. Journal entries will not correct this problem.
Here it is.
1.     Review Inventory Audit Report by Summarize by Accounts for the item.
2.     Do a Misc. Issue to remove the inventory.
3.     Review Inventory Audit Report again.
4.     Change the Acct # on the Item Group for the Inventory Item to match the negative value account number. CAUTION! Make sure that users are not performing transactions on the system when you do this.
5.     Do another Good Receipt for 1 each at price shown in Negative value account number. Enter as a positive number.
6.     Re-run the Inventory Audit to confirm that the negative account has been zeroed out.
7.     Change Item Group Inventory account to remaining positive value account number.
8.     Do an Inventory Issue for quantity of 1 each.
9.     Re-run the Inventory Audit Report for the item. All accounts should now have zero value.
10.     Change Item Group account setting back to correct account for future.
I hope it works for you.

Cost object for raw material consumption posting

the raw material cosumption posting is done in the background when the goods issue is done. so where do we assign cost object for the primary cost element of raw material consumption account. since we create primary cost element for raw material consumption account, it will expect us to give cost object, so where we assign cost object for the raw material consumption cost element

hi
since the raw material cost is relevent for cost accounting u need to maintain primary cost elment accounts.When ever u confirm goods, the rm issue will take place automatically and will be debited to either product cost collector or production order. so u need not to assign any cost object for these consumption accounts why bcoz issues will take palce aganist a production order or product cost collector which is a cost object .

Authorization object for manual condition type in sale order

Hi experts
I want ask them, If exist an authorization object for manual Condition type (KOMV-KSCHL) in the sales order (VA01/VA02), that the user don' t can create neither modify the sale orden with a specific manual condition type (payment term) by stardard way.
Best regards
John Angulo

HI John,
I would be surprised to know that someone uses the Payment terms as a condition in the Pricing procedure for sales orders. The payment terms define when the customer agrees to pay, (15, 20, 45 ,....days or 5 years or 10 years....whatever it be)
this detail for what i know is in the sales order header,and ideally has nothing to do with the Item level material price conditions.
its ok, If you mean something else by payment terms.....in principle you can have a conditon type restrcited such that manual entries on the condition are not possible. this cane be done in SPRO customizing, i am sure your functional consultants would know what to do (SPRO->Sales and Distribution->Basic Function->Condition Types), in the tab "Changes that can be made" have a value that says manual Processing is not allwowed
The ABAP route mentioned above is for a different scenarion and i dont think it is necessary for your requirement

What are the possible cost objects for raw material consumption postings

what are the possible cost objects for raw material consumption postings. i want to know whether it can be work order(maintenance order).

For example, you are confirming a process order and issuing raw materials to the process order, the system in the background creates the consumption posting and will by default use the process order as a cost object.
Similarly, when you are issuing materials to a work order, you will use MB1A and with movement type 261 and the system prompts you to enter the order number. If you are using movement type 201, then the system prompts you to enter the cost center and so on.

FC - Cross-category validation in Central Manual Journal Entries

Hello experts,
At a client site we are implementing several different reporting categories. There are requirements to validate certain accounts between categories.
Within the packages this is working fine - example:
But when used in Central Journals the controls behave differently.
In our issue there is a JE posted on the Category "IFRS-ACT". We then try to post a journal on a different category (same ledger) and want to validate to make sure we are balanced between both.
The control runs OK and recognises that there is a difference between the amounts stored in the separate categories but does not bring the amount stored on the category that it is validating against:
Can anyone offer any advice on how to resolve the issue? Or is it not possible?
Many thanks!

Hello,
This is a known behavior. Controls and formulas using
external data (data from another category) are not applied to local and central manual
journal entries.

Exchange rate differences posting failed due to manual journal entries

when i run exchange rate differences and try to post the result, system shows "No matching recording found 'journal entry' (OJDT) (ODBC-2028) [message 131-183]" at the bottom panel ane the posting was failed. then i found the problem is actually from manual journal entries made to a business partner. as long as i deselect the manual journal entries, the posting was successfully done.
i am using B1 2007B with pl09. is this standard in B1 2007B that exchange rate differences posting does not work with manual journal entries of BP?

you are right! it is a bug in 2007B.
The posting has no problem if the base reference number is same as the transaction number in the manual JE document. however, if we define a numbering series which is different from the transaction serial number, then we have problem with the posting. System searchs for the JE records by using base reference number as transaction number. That is why it could not find the JE document and then report the error message.
so, where should i post the bug to SAP and let them fix the bug as soon as possible?
thanks for the help!

Manual Journal entry limitations in sap b1

Hi friends,
We are creating Manual JE in sap b1. We give the access only two users for creating Manual JE. Now we will plan one more thing . Limitation of JE . it is means, per user we will go to allow only 1000 manual journal entries only creating by the user. if they reached their limitation we block that . How i will block ? Is it possible in sap b1 ? or any store procedure is there?

Number of Journal Entries could be limited by giving user specific document numbering series for a particular user.
Hope this helps.

Is it possible to automatically trigger a Manual Journal Entry?

Hi Forum,
This could apply to any situation:
Suppose when I create an A/R invoice, I would like another manual journal entry to be created automatically. Is this possible and how could it be achieved?
Thank you.

Hi Mahendra and Gordon:
This is the situation:
Relates to DropShip Order:
1.Client create DropShip Sales Order (against drop ship warehouse).
2. DropShip Sales Order generates PO (Note no liability accounts are hit)
3. Client wants to invoice their drop ship customer immediately by emailing A/R invoice.
This mean the revenue accounts are already hit and our client has registered a revenue.
Problem : However liability accounts are not hit and our client may not receive A/P invoice for say 2 weeks. This means the books show exagerated revenue.
I suggested - A/P reserve invoice to be created immediately, but it needs to be canceled which leaves original PO in closed state in 8.8.
Second method I suggested to create a manual journal entry to hit deferred liability account to be reversed in two weeks. The client says, this is backoffice job and they do not want them to have access to journal entries.
In anycase, whatever reason, our client will change business practice, however, I thought let me check what it takes to create manual deferred liability auto reversal entry automatically.
Is there any other way to handle this situation?
Thanks.
Edited by: Syed Aleem on Jun 24, 2011 3:13 PM
As soon as A/R invoice is created, a deferred payable needs to be updated also automatically at the same time. This is the requirement.
