Cross-company postings in DMBE3 only

[Former Member]

Hi, dear colleagues!

We need to create cross-company postings in local currency 3 (DMBE3) only.

Transaction FBB1 doesn’t contain fields NEWBK and BVORG. Is there standard tool for such postings?

As one of solutions may be 2 steps posting - entering 2 transactions FBB1 separately and then fill cross-company code document number (BKPF-BVORG).

Anyone has faced such kind of questions before?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Kind regards,
Mariya

Dear Mariya,
Mainly FBB1 is for adjustment postings for foreign currency valuation. The foreign currency valuation program is run based on single company code, not for cross company code,  Hence there is not function like FB01 to post cross company code document in FBB1.
The alternative solution is as what you have mentioned that split this cross company code document into 2docs, and post it separately in FBB1.

Dear Gladys Xing,

I also chose an alternative solution with 2 separate documents. To communicate these documents I need to fill cross-company code document number in both documents.

To use as close as possible to the standard approach, I think to fill the field "Cross-CC no." (BKPF-BVORG), but I can't find a bapi for this. May be you know?

I can't use substitution or open-fi because on this stage, each document is processed separately, and I need the second document to specify the number of the first.

If I still fail to fill BKPF-BVORG, I will have to fill in another text field, available on the change in FB02, but this option isn't very convenient for further work with documents, because we will not be able to benefit from the convenience of FBU3.

Kind regards,

Dear colleagues,

In addition to FBB1 I tried to use ABB1, this transaction would solve my issue, but when I simulate the posting in it, I get the error F5560 'Company code offsetting cannot be posted automatically'.

I checked notes:

316176 - My company codes have the same local currencies and T003-XGSUB = X for document type in posting.

2181835 – This note puts the ban on the creation of transactions ABB1 in the same way as for transaction FBB1. Does anyone have some information for what purpose is this ban?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Kind regards,

Mariya

Hi,

why do you need cross-company code document number (BKPF-BVORG)?

As an option you can create substitution for instance with prerequisites Document type = X and delete Amount1 and Amount2 and use FB01 for posting
