We have payment proposal created and distributed to our BU controller by business area. We are recently upgraded to ECC 6 and now planning to activate new gl with document splitting. We are having cases where one invoice belong to several business area in before new gl we enter the business area in vendor line item which has major value. But in document splitting, if we have invoice belong to multiple business area then we donot need to enter business area in vendor line item and system split it according to expense proportion but in this case our problem is that systme split general ledger view of document but vendor line will be shown without business area. In that case we will have a problem for displayign vendor balances by business area and also unable to assign the open items to relevant BU controller. Please advise
With the new GL, surely you should be using Profit centres instead of business areas? You might be able to workaround by creating separate accounts for each area, and then using Branch/HO functionality to group together?
You face one of the new G/L issues: field segment and splitting are made at the G/L level and thus are not available in AR/AP.
=> you cannot use those functionalities to face organisational purposes (analyse customer/vendor by split value - dunning, payments etc...)
==> You will have to enter the business area directly in the entry view on the customer/vendor line items (why not use a substitution rule for mono-business area invoices).
So for the multi-business areas invoices, you will have to 'manually' split the client positions by business area to fill the information... Maybe those multi-business area cases are rare...
