Carve out Process in case of Intra-Company code transactions

[priyadarshan_behera]

Hello Experts,

Can any one put his carving-out project experience for the below scenarios -

There are 5 company codes. Out of the 5, one company code having two business segments ( for ex- A & B) which are being captured profit centre wise.

There are requirements to delete the 4 company codes entirely & for the last company code the areas only pertaining to segments A. B will remain under that company code & migrated to different new system which will be used individually.

What about the identifier based upon which carving out can be carried out including the impact on Inter & Intra Company transactions.

Thanks.

Hi Eli,

As per the requirement of the client (Target Co. in this case), they don't want to pass on few portion (which has not been taken over) of the data with the acquiree company. Hence the details pertaining to the target company are required to be deleted (After archival & deletion, same landscape will be copied to the new client & would be used by the acquiree company) .

Actually entire transfer is getting executed between 2 entities, which are different legal entities. The issue is, entire company is not getting transferred in this process rather few business units are, which are profit center specific.

I hope i have clarified you my requirement.

Thanks.

Well, it is quite unusual, but if this is the requirement so be it. However, I still don't get what particular problem you find in this task. So, you have to archive the data in 4 company codes, and partially do it in 5th company code, while migrating the rest of this company code to some other entity. Seems to me like a straight-forward task, time-consuming of course, but with no particular challenge in terms of SAP processing.

Hi Eli,

There is no vague or hypothetical scenarios i had mentioned here. That was the exact business scenario which we are dealing with. We need to delete few profit center data & retain other in the same company code.

Inter & Intra Company Code transactions are generic in SAP. Please refer some other link before mentioning here.

If it was known to me i would have never wasted my time rather yours.

Thanks

Why would you want to delete data from a company code? I'm sorry but this point is not clear.

First of all, you cannot just 'delete' financial official data. Maximum, you are supposed to archive it. Secondly, when it comes to 4 company codes mentioned, again I don't get the point of 'deletion'. If these entities become obsolete, simply stop all the activity there and migrate any open documents, if any.

Hi,

There is nothing techncially complicated in this requirement. What are you doubts exactly? What do you mean by inter/intra- company transactions, considering the fact that you are leaving 1 company code out of 5 available? Adn what do you mean by 'identifier'?

Anyway, your requirement seems to be a classical restructuring exercise, where some data is merged, other becomes obsolete, etc. Everything is possible when dealing with this situation, in SAP or in any other system for that matter. However, you have to understand that your real challenge would be some concrete issues with certain data and not some vague understanding whether it is possible or not.

Regards,

Eli
