Intercompany transaction in Purchasing

[Former Member]

We have vendor in company code A. We will create a srevice related PO in company code A. Invoice received should be in company code A. The payment will be done in company code A. The actual service is done for company code B. Therefore, the expense account in company code B instead of company code A should be debit. This is basically an intercompany related transaction. Are there anyone who can hlep me to show me how I should configure SAP in MM for intercompany related transaction?

I did the inter-company configuration by using GL account in OBYA. However, I can do the intercompany posting in FI side. I could not do the intercompany posting for the transaction code MIRO.

I greatly appreciate it if somebody can give me light.

Thank you.

Hi Frank

Does not look like a good design.

Can you explain why you want to do Txn in company A, though you actualy have the work done & expense to be debited in company B ?

Is it because, the users are located that way ?

Ramki,

We have company code A which has a bank account and can cut checks. However, there is no bank account in company code B. Company A will pay all the bills for company code B. When the service is needed to be done in company code B, we need to create the service related PO and invoice received in company code A. Payment will be run in company code A. However, the expense account in company code B will be debited and intercompany transaction will be recorded. Do you know that SAP has intercompany transaction in purchasing side which can solve our problem?

Thank you.

Hi Frank

I do not have a solution for your problem.

I strongly believe that transactions shd happen based on the operations. In your case, all transactions upto invoicing shd be done in company B.

We shd think of a way to pay from company B for company A invoices. Can you pl check with FI experts too. My instinct says, this shd be possible.

Best regards
