Restriction of Spl. GL indicator A for fixed asset advances

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

Can we restrict the usage of Spl. GL indicator A (for current assets) for Capital POs while processing advances (down payments) through F-48.

ie. While making advances for capital assets throug F-48, only GL indicator M (for capital assets) should be chosen.

It should not allow us to choose Spl. GL indicator A.

Kind Regards,

Anita

Hi Payal

The only solution which seems feasible is writing a validation for special GL and transaction code.

Hi

Use the following validation in GGB0

Prerequisite

Check whether the T-code is F-48

Check

Indicator for Down payment = M & G/L account is not equal to = (Reconciliation account assigned to Indicator "M")

Message

Use the Special G/L indicator "M" only for capital asset advance.

Hope this will help you

Let me know if you need more details

Dear Friends,

Thx for your reply. But in our scenario we have assigned the Recon a/c for both the indicators.

ie. My Recon a/c is assigned for indicators M and A. So here the users are free to choose any

one of these.

So, kindly advice how can we restrict this.

Any enhancement is available for the Tcode F-47 & F-48.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

If you can identify the vendors against which Capital POs can be raised, you can maintain a separate reconciliation account to those vendors. And in transaction code OBYR, create an indicator M and assign this reconciliation account to the Special Gl to which it can be posted. Do not assign this reconciliation account with any other indicator.

Please revert in case of any clarification.

Thanks and Regards,

Anit
