Intercompany Sales in Planning

73 Views

Hi,

Has anyone implemented planning on Intercompany activity in Planning. I have come up with 2 approaches and see some cons with both the issues.

I am hoping someone has a better approach than the 2 listed below.

Thanks

Approach 1 : Each company code plans for its intercompany activity. Trading partner is used as a tag to denote intercompany activity. Move the data to BCS towards the end of planning cylce, execute elimination. BCS will list all the elimination errors.

Problem : This may produce a huge reconciling activity towards the end of the cycle.

Approach 2 : Each company code plans for its intercompany activity. Trading partner as a tag to denote intercompany activity. Planning function creates the reverse entry in the partner company (use a different Planning item to avoid locking problems. This planning item should not be allowed for user entry).

Problem : The reverse entry in the partner company would affect its Finanacial statements
