Comments · 460 Views

In this series, I would like to present a bunch of quick 4 Tips related to FI/CO/AA that may come handy to you. I can't claim you will find all of them to be new, but there will be something for everyone, to a great extent

Tip -1

Steps to activate Budget Check for assets (without IM) more on SAP IBP Training

  • Activate order management in controlling area
  • Activate commitment management in controlling area Order type
  • Enable Budgetary control in Internal Order
  • Create statistical IO with “Object class – Investment”
  • Assign the statistical IO in asset master in the “Origin” Tab – “Investment Order” Field
  • Create asset recon account as statistical cost element (Category 90)
  • The FSG of asset recon account must allow IO (OBC4)
  • Activate the investment order as the additional account assignment object for asset acquisition (ACSET)
  • Enter budget for the statistical internal order (KO22)

Tip -2

Settle Production Variances by Cost Component Structure in COPA

  • Create PA Transfer Structure with as many assignments as Cost Components in Cost Component Structure
  • Choose the Option “Costs / Revenues” in each assignment, instead of “Variances”
  • Assign each assignment to a different value field by practice on SAP Training

Traditionally, variances are settled to COPA as per Variance Categories. But this is also an interesting way of doing the Variance Settlement

 

Tip -3

Track Origin line items of an AUC asset

  • Activate “Settlement By Cost Element” in the Allocation Structure
  • Assign the Allocation Structure to Settlement Profile of the Internal Order and the Co. Code
  • Use Program RAHERK02 to see Origin line items

Tip-4

Display Cost Center Accounting and Internal Order Accounting reports in Multiple Currencies

  • Using RPC0 and RPO0 respectively, you can switch between Controlling Area currency and Object Currency (Co. Code Currency)
  • These settings are per SAP User
