Hi Suraj,

It's not in company code level.

Here are the ways to maintain the field status group:

1. Execute via tcode OBC4

a. highlight the field status name by click the 1st box button beside Field Status Variant

b. double click field status group in "dialog structure" screen

c. double click field status group u want to change

d. double click "Additional account assignments" in group screen

e. in "additional account assignment" u choose/set/click "Req.entry" radio button for sales order since u want to make it mandatory right?

f. save

g. transport the number if u have 2 server (development server for testing and production server for "live")

Hope this will answer ur question.

TQ

Hi thanks yaar

We have 3 feild status groups.

One at Account group Level which controls the master data.

One at posting key level which controls,

a. To which side of the accuount it should post

b. The feild status for the line item.

The other at the GL level by assigning the FSG to GL.

For your question the later 2 are relevant.

Posting key FSGs are at client level.

when it comes to the GL level, it is the feild status variant that controls. If all the company codes under the same client are using the same FSG, then you can say in such a case it is at client level. But ususally these are specific to company code.

If all the companies under the client are using the same FSG and in one company code as you said the order as mandatory, then if you change this then all the company codes are effected.

So check before making changes whether all the company codes are using the same Feild status Variant or different? If different the go and make change to the one that is needed.

Hope you understood the concept.

Hi,

let's assume in one filed status group like G001 in that you made the business area filed as requried filed and this filed status group you have assigned in G/L account , once you go for posting the entry in that G/L account , entry can't be post without giving business area , like that it will work filed staus group ,

Field status group is at the client level and not company code level....

another thing in OBC4 u have the different groups in field status groups.. u choose the group in which u want to make the field as mandatory..

u can also control the field status through posting key.. also check whether ur requirement is fulfilled from there or in OBC4.

hope it helps u

Hi,

In OBC4 already u hav ur company Field status Group.. select the field status variant and double click on field status groups...

and all ur feilds like g001,g002 etc will be available there and double click on G001 and when go inside in select group tab ...

general data ,account assignment,payment transactions groups etc will be there....and double click on that then select which ever feield u want 2 keep REQUIRED,SUPRESS,OPTIONAL....

nother easy way is Select ur gl which ur going 2 use and open that gl in fs00 and check the feild status group ...and goto OBC4 and then directly u can select ur field status group and change as required...

if useful assign points.....

Hi

field status variant are client-level settings. You can edit the status of the field status variant fields as you wish from suppressed, optional, display or hidden. According to this setting, it will be available at the time of posting.
