CIN - Excise Opening Balances & Registers Extraction

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

                   We have configured CIN, and want to enter opening balances of Excise ie; (RG23A & RG23C) as on 31.03.2014. I have gone through the steps given in the building block of "Excise opening balance upload" and have done the steps accordingly, but when I am trying to extract the Excise Register (T.code :- J2I5) getting an error "Plant Code ----- does not exist", have checked in T.code J1ID , all the necessary assignments have been to plant i.e. with respect to Plant, Material & Chapter ID. Secondly also checked the  "Valuation Area is maintained at Plant Level" as given in  the SAP Note:- 1320593 & 1239265. Also passed a JV in T.code F-02, but still I am getting the same error  "Plant Code ----- does not exist".

Trial in second way

We even prepared an Excise P.O.

2) Posted Goods Receipt & simultaneously captured Excise Invoice and checked the G/L balance and the balances are posted.

But still we are getting the same error while extracting Excise Register - "Plant Code ----- does not exist"

Also we tried to change the Message Error as guided by some in the SDN forums.

So where I am going wrong, is there any issue related to Year - End Procedure? What steps have I missed? Our first priority is to enter Excise opening balances, so please guide me? Thank you

Regards

Mukhtar sir,

                 There is no wrong plant assigned to Excise group. It has been correctly assigned in "Maintain Excise Registrations" and secondly I have even checked in T.code J1ID and the Excise Indicator has been assigned to Plant. So where am I going wrong? Please guide. Thank you

Hi Ashwin,

On IDES

We have created two Plants

Plant 1 - PLN1 (In SAP)

Plant 2- PLN2  (In SAP)

Now PLN1 is manufacturing and Excise Indicator assigned to it is "21"

&     PLN2 is Depot (Tick Marked) and Excise Indicator assigned to it is "51"

We have made transactions on Plant PLN1 & Excise Indicator 21 respectively

When I want to extract Excise Register,

I have entered Excise Group - 21

                     Start Date & End Date

                     Selected Any Register (Tick Mark)

                     Selected Register - RG23A Part I & II

When I Execute it (F8)

I get the error as

PLANT PLN1 does not exist.

No Sir the Plant has not been deleted. I getting the same error as "Plant Code does not exist" Message no. 8I546. Problem not solved, please help

Ashwin

I believe that the message 8I 546 checks the settings from Plant settings and J1ID Excise indicator for Plant.

Just check whether Plant settings are properly maintained in CIN configuration under Basic settings and also ensure in J1ID Excise indicator for Plant is properly maintained with all the information including excise indicator for Company code.

If not maintained, please maintain it properly and check once again.

Thanks for the reply Mr.Ashok Kumar

Yes the error message no. is 8I546 and I have checked the settings from "Maintain Plant Settings" and also in T.code J1ID - The Excise indicator for plant has been assigned. But still I am getting the same error "The Plant Code PLN1 does not exist. So what more do I need to check? Please guide.

May be you are typing incorrect Plant code. Choose the Plant code from F4 list..

Is this Plant code created newly? If yes,check the CIN configuration once again and Ensure J1ID settings are all in place pertains to plant.

If you are choosing / typing the Plant code correctly, please share screenshot of J2I5 with Clear error message.

Dear Ashok Kumar Sir,

                                I am attaching screenshots of CIN done by me on IDES. Please go through it and let me know where have I gone wrong. Right now I am not attaching screenshots of transactions which I have made, the screenshots are only related to Configuration.

Attaching More Screenshots

Could you check in SPRO what is maintained in Define valuation level and revert back. It seems that you have set the Valuation at Company code level in your SAP system. That is the reason system is throwing the said error. Just check it from SPRO-Enterprise Structure-Definition-Logistic General-Define Valuation level. If yes, have implemented the below note.

Have a look at the SAP note 1239265 - Valuation area at company code level gives an error in J2I5

While debugging the J2I5 i found that the message checks the Valuation level.

Dear Ashok Sir,

                      Sorry for the delay in replying your message.

The Valuation level has been set to Plant and not to Company Code, while defining Enterprise Structure. But still I get the same error. Attaching the screen shot of the same for your kind reference.

I have gone through the Note number, is this Note supposed to be uploaded through T.code SNOTE

[former_member192897 · Accepted solution]

If the valuation is set at Plant level, then you should be able to run J2I5. Check the J1ID - Excise Indicator for Plant. Maintain all the values in the said node including Excise indicator for Company and check once again. Also ensure that Plant settings are in place in CIN configuration SPRO-Logistic General-Tax on goods Movement-India-Basic Settings-Maintain Plant settings

Sir,

    I have checked all the settings in Excise Indicator for Plant and have maintained all the values, but in vain I am getting the same error, I have even sent the screenshots in my previous reply. So Sir, is this a problem related to Basis i.e. do we need to apply the Note 1320593 in SAP by using T.code SNOTE??

Regards

Ashwin

[former_member192897 · Accepted solution]

Have implemented 1320593 and check once again. There is no harm if you implement the said note.

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Yes sir after implementing the above note I could extract the register. Thank you for your support 🙂
