Dear Ramesh

The link between Account Key and Posting Key is G/L Account. You can see this in OB40 and OBYC where you can see for a Transaction, couple of G/L Accounts would have been assigned. If you place your mouse on any G/L Account and click on Posting Key, you can see the assignments there.

thanks

So, account key will point to GL accounts and GL accounts will point to Posting keys via Transaction. am i right?

I don't know much of Transaction in the screens you mentioned.

Any more explanation will be hilgly appreciated.

Hi Ramesh,

Yes you are right.

We are going to define the G/L account determination from "VKOA" T.Code.

Which is very much based on AAG of customer and material for your sales organisation.

These are related to G/L acccounts.

Thanks. There are two fields with same name GL A/c in VKOA. What is the differance between them?

What is AAG mean?

Hi Ramesh,

AAG means Account assignment group.The same field you can find in CMR(customer master data) and MMR(Material master data).

You can find the field in Customer master data in sales area data,under billing tab , the account assignment group.

Similarly in materialmaster data also under the "Sales:Sales organisation data,Configurable material" view in grouping items tab , the account assignment group.

Based on these two fields you maintained here the G/L account will be identified.

For example:

In CMR the AAG is "01". and in MMR the AAG is "G1".In our case in "VKOA" for the first condition table i.e. customer grp/material grp/account key for these two the G/L account "2231000" is determined as Application as "v",Condition type as "KOFI",Charts of accounts as "NGA" and Sales organisation as "1000" and account key as "ERF".

Regards,

Krishna.

Hi G Lakshmipathi.

I created one account key for TCS. Account key is ZT7. I assigned it to scrap sales pricing procedure in front of FI TCS condition type. I assigned posting key and GL account to ZT7 in OB40.

Now system is giving error "Tax Code    in procedure TAXINN is invalid"

It does not tells which Tax Code.

Please help what needs to be done further.
