FI Errors and Probable Solutions

These are some of the issue for which probable

solutions are given, hope they are helpful :
Scenario 1:
I have configured FBZP, Fi12 for house
bank. But when I am doing payment run in
F110 I am getting following error:
Company codes X1YZ/X1YZ do not appear
in proposal 05/03/2006 REMI2.
Diagnosis
No data exists for the specified paying
company code X1YZ and the specified
sending company code X1YZ in payment
proposal 05/03/2006 REMI2.
System response
The payment proposal cannot be edited.
Procedure
Check the flow trace and payment proposal
list in order to determine why the specified
company codes are not contained in the
proposal
Solution :
* That’s generic error for payment run, check
whether there are any due items as on date
(tcode fbl1n). You can also change the baseline
date there and rerun it. if you still get same
error.. Check the proposal log, you will find the
reason.
* Try to see first whether any open items exist.
By using FBL1N.
Scenario 2:
How to make the payment through
automatic payment program, through F-
110 .What are the prerequisites?
Solution :
For Down payments to be paid using APP we
have create a Down Payment request F-47.
Scenario 3:
While doing APP, after, " the payment
proposal has been created message " if edit
proposal is selected, I am getting the error as
"Company code ABC/ABC do no appear in
the proposal "
Solution :
This type of error comes when your Payment
proposal doesn't have any items to process.
Check the parameters and ensure invoices are
due as on run date.

Scenario 4 :
While posting customer invoice (FB70) why
system asks for G/L account? As per
accounting rules customer is debited and
Customer reconciliation a/c is credited that
ends double entry book keeping rule. Why
one more G/L account on top of Recon a/c,
which is posted automatically?
Solution :
* Entry gets posted to Customer a/c through
reconciliation account. You have to give a GL
a/c for revenue.
Your entry would be
Customer (Reconciliation a/c) Dr
To Revenue Cr
* Reconciliation is a fictious entry so you
cannot consider as an entry to be entered by the
user. This rule is derived from the fact that 'we
cannot enter/post directly to RECON account'.
That is why system needs a GL account to make
the account balance as zero. Manual entry
could be:
Customer a/c Dr
To Domestic Sales a/c
(Sales invoiced posted)
Recon entry is automatically made once you
post this entry since you have configured your
RECON in the IMG.
Scenario 5 :
I am unable to figure out how to attach my
GL Accounts to my company code [copied
chart of accounts, have my own company
code, assigned my company code to the chart
of accounts].
Solution :
You can attach the GL Accounts by just filling
the details in the company code segment of the
GL A/c. Hence you can use that gl a/c for your
co code.
But that would be individually creating the
accounts. Right?? How about creating all
accounts at one shot. Create in FS00
Scenario 6 :
Difference between Standard Hierarchy and
Alternate Hierarchy.
Solution :
Standard Hierarchy is basic structure of
company but alternative hierarchy is just for
reporting or temporary usage.
Scenario 7:
I have created depreciation keys (diminishing
balance) and assigned to asset classes
respectively. But at the time of asset master
creation the system ask for Useful Life of the
asset while my understanding is that in
diminishing balance method there is useful
life, just percentage is defined.
Solution :
Useful life is required for depreciation change.
Normally a company with WDV depreciation
may want to write off its assets which have
crossed their useful life in 2 or 3 installments.
This is achieved by depreciation change, where
after useful life, a new method takes over.
Scenario 8 :
I have some conceptual problem in Internal
Order.
Solution :
Internal order can only take a statistical posting
& cost centre shall take a true posting when the
relevant internal order is defined as statistical
I/O IN T. code KO01(CONTROL DATA ) tab.
So while making a posting in FB50 and
assigning both I/O & COST CENTRE as
relevant cost object in the transaction you shall
get the stated status of these 2 cost object.
Scenario 9 :
In fb50, in the details tab, only if I tick
'calculate tax' will the tax get calculated.
Our user wants this to happen always (by
default), i.e. he does not want to tick this for
each transaction. Is there any setup to be
done for the tax to get calculated always?
Solution :
Even now you are not clear. T_Code FB50 is
used for posting GL account only. I fail to
understand how you can calculate tax which is
generally from purchase / vendor or Sales /
Customer oriented through FB50.
In case of local distribution, if we forget to pay
taxes on certain items and we need to pass tax
entries, then such a case is needed. This can be
achieved thru default parameter id for that
particular user through transaction code SU3.
In SU3, in Parameters Tab put "XTX" in
Parameter ID column and in Parameter Value
column put "X".
Scenario 10 :
We have an issue here where by the system is
calculating the tax for an invoice with a
wrong tax base amount. How do i change the
tax base amount? I get the tax rates from
VERTEX and they are showing right. Where
does the system pull this tax base amount for
an Invoice and how can I change it.
Solution :
Kindly check this:
spro - financial accounting - f.a global setting -
with holding setting - extended with holding
setting -- calculation -- with holding tax type .
Check your withholding tax type, go in it and
check the setting.

Hello Gurus,

For a normal invoice posting in FB60, I

defined the vendor terms as net 30 days.
But when I make a credit posting for the
same vendor the transaction is posted
with 001 days. Could you please tell me
the settings of payment terms in this case
for a credit transaction to the vendor.

Hi,

1. First got to the transaction

se16 , give table T001 and give
the COA in the field KTOPL
then derive all the respective
CC(BUKRS) assigned in it.

2. Then Go to SKB1 and give

all the field values in BUKRS
which are derived above and
flag the field XOPVW as "x"
and execute

Now you are going to get all

 the OI mgmt enabled GL
accounts for a particular COA.

Definately this is going to

resolve your Querry.

Dear Gurus:
In your real implementations in the US,
how the tax configuration for sales, use
and purchase taxes is done? - Do you use
tax calculation wihin SAP or use external
tax calculation package such as vertex?
Points available for answers from real
implementations in the US.
Thanks in advance.

experience says that use the
bolt on software like sabrix is
much more convinent to use
than maintaining all the
different tax codes and
jursidcation and rates and
changing them in sap. If its in
sabrix or vertex then those
organisation provide you with
the changed information and
easier to maintain than in
sap.

Hi,

We have done GR for an Asset PO

and thereafter the asset got
depriciated.

Later, no invoice received from

vendor for this PO and hence
decided to close the open GR/IR
account.
We tried doing MR11, but as asset
already got capitalised and
depriciated, its not allowing us to post
account maintainence entry - Givinbg
error "Dep area 10 conflicts with net
book value rule"

We cannot even reverse GR as the

Asset is being used.

probable solution could be to remove

direct posting flag for GR/IR clearing
account and then to make a maual
entry by debiting GR/IR account and
crediting "gain from vendor a/c" and
later to maually clear the open items.
Please advise.

Thanks,
Pavan.
