Hi all,

I am implementing  free of chage delivery process (order type FD)

There are five order reasons  (samples for client, samples for sertifacation, follow-up delivery and so on)

Finance requirement is to use different GL accounts for different order reason.

Could you advise how to configure the system to do it.

I know sale order cost center selection releted to order reason but here account determinaton.

Thank you in advance,

Andrey.

Hi

What would be your process and will you be using a free goods pricing for it? Pricing type B in VOV7. Are you talking about PGI account determination or billing document account determination?

Hi,

I use standard free of chage order (FD). Item category KLN,

Pricing and billing  are swiching off.

I am trying to use account determination during PGI.

I general it is enough for my scenario, we need simple accounting document from stock to costs. But costs account is depend on order reason.

Hi

We don't have flexible account determination in MM or in OBYC. At the time of PGI system determines GL accounts from OBYC. We can change G/Ls based on material valuation type or movement type etc. We can add our own fields in this account determination like we can do in SD account determination. In other words this is not possible at the time of PGI. You can determine G/Ls order reason wise in billing document and suggested by TW please see any possibility for activating price and billing relevance etc for your item category. Preferably create a copy of KLN and make necessary changes in that and cater this accounting entry at the time of billing if possible.

Hi Andrey,

Very similar i had to one of my client where we used to maintained order reason along with new customized movement type. While saving the sales order , system would replace the default movement with the new customized movement type based on order reason maintained in the custom table. And, We customized new account modification for each new movement types and maintained different GL accounts for each transaction key in OBYC settings.So, while doing PGI , It would post to different GL account based on order reasons.

Let me know if you need any info on this.

WIth Regards

For this case , we need to do some development in the user exit wherein we need to apply the logic like system should change the movement type based on order reasons. for this, we need to create multiple movement types as many order reasons we have.. Then , we need to have automatic account determination set up for different movement types. Please give ur  Text Removed :..I send you the documents what needs to be done to achieve this requirement.

With Regards

Andrey,

As you know, Revenue account determination follows the condition technique, same as pricing.

In your business process, one of the criteria is Order reason. This field AUGRU is in the field catalog. You can create a table and assign it in your access sequence.

And then create the condition records in VKOA for specifying the G/L accounts, in case of different order reasons.

Hi,

Thank you for answer.

Customizing you mention above requires billing  document. Right?

By default, billing is switched off in free of chage process.

If I can't find any option to get correct accounting document using GI, I will activate billing and follow you way.

Any idea how to do it during PGI?

Andrey.

Hi Andrey,

Yes, your reply to Moazzam made it clear that you are discussing about account postings during PGI. And my post was referring to postings after/during creation billing document.

Your configuration of free goods consists of deactivating price (no pricing - at item category level configuration). Thus for that line item, no accounting document will be created.

added: this you have suggested already in your post - Probably, an added comment, in the process further on - For this kind of free goods, billing document should not be created.

Hi,

Check in OVF3.

Hi, thank you for answer,

But OVF3 is a cost center determination according to order reason.

Looks it is not my case.
