Hi,

My Client has 2 Units. Accordingly 2 Account segments have been generated. Now for these 2 unit should we have different Items Codes and BP Master Code in the same Database? Pls throw some light on this.

Dear

You need to maintain BP master data as per unit wise.(thats means two BP master in your case)

other wise your Balance-sheet is not showing you your Expected result.

Hi Kalli,

I don't know whether you want to post transactions to different BP Control Accounts? If you want to maintain different control accounts, you will have to. This is not best practice, because all Balance Sheet accounts usually go to only ONE segment (The balance sheet segment example: 111150-JHB-BAL. If you spilt Business Partners, each Business Partner will receive 2 Statments.....) Therefore only one BP Master Data record is needed.

Usually it is only your P & L Accounts that are split between the different segments (example: 454240-JHB-000).

Hope it helps.

Hi,

Yes, that is if your Account Determination is set per Item Group. In my opinion, it is better to set the Account Determination per Warehouse. You can then only maintain ONE item and manipulate to which segment you want to post to, by selecting the Warehouse.

Kind regards
