Integration of FI with MM

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hi,

Under the Plant 6000, We had a valuation class 9634, Gl accounts were created assigned and moved to production.

As per the Client requirement, they want to shutdown the previous plant and start the new one.

They want to assign the same GL Account to the new valuation class 6589, which is created for the new plant.

1.Is it advisable in SAP 2. What are the implications from FI side and controlling, 3. what are the integration point we need to look out for.

In case i want to know totally how many GL accounts we had created for MM, where we can view that.

Please help me on this

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi

They want to assign the same GL Account to the new valuation class 6589, which is created for the new plant.

1.Is it advisable in SAP

Sol: :Yes . you can use same GL code.Because GL code is assigned at Chart of accounts level.It wont effect MM reporting also.

2. What are the implications from FI side and controlling,

Sol: There is no any implications from SAP Side.The reason is we are dealing with GL accounts in FICO not with Plants. If the plant is shutdown or not no problems

3. what are the integration point we need to look out for

Sol : If you want to segregate GL codes for each plant you can maintain it. But instead of going for new GL code if you use exisitng GL. that is fine. Because here you can get for these GL codes and plants seperate reporting.Only thing is how to restrict users without positng to the shutdown plant.you can do this by removing plantwise authorisation.

Thanks

Hi Anjireddy,

your inputs were great!!!!!!!! Thanks a ton!

I had some clarifications, very new to the concept of integration.

1.1 Client wants to assign the same GL Account to the new valuation class 6589, which is created for the new plant. Is it advisable in SAP?

Solution: Yes. You can use same GL code. Because GL code is assigned at Chart of accounts level. It wonu2019t affect MM reporting also.

Question: you have stated that it will not effect the MM reporting, Please help me in knowing what reporting.

2. Since, these GL accounts are already in use, will the existing balances affect in any wasy.

3.What are the implications from FI side and controlling?

There is no Implication from SAP Side (Either in Terms of FI or Controlling). The reason is we are dealing with GL Accounts in FICO not with plants. Even if the plant shutdown or not no problems.

Implication from controlling in terms of COPA, Product costing, Cost center Accounting.

The reason is we are dealing with GL Accounts in FICO not with plants. Even if the plant shutdown or not no problems.- could you please briefly explain what would be the effect in case if we were dealing with plants.

why there will be no implication if we are dealing with GL accounts?

4.. What are the Integration Points we need to look out for?

If you want to segregate GL codes for each plant you can maintain it. But instead of going for new GL code if you use existing GL thatu2019s fine. Because here you can get for these GL codes and plants separate reporting.

In the exisiting plan they have grouped the plant of similar nature using valuation modifiers assigned the same GL accounts to different plants with the same company code and chart of accounts.

As per the above statement we will not be segregating GL codes for each plant,

Too many question to answer.. Really need your help..

FI-MM happens in T-code OBYC.

1. When PO is created :

-


No Entry -


2. When GR is posted

Inventory Account dr (Transaction Key BSX in OBYC)

To GRIR account (T.Key WRX in T-code OBYC)

3. When Invoice is posted

GRIR account Dr.

Vendor account Cr.

4. Payment made to Vendor

Vendor A/c Dr

To Bank Clearing A/c Cr.

Points to know : Movement Types, Assignment of Movement types to T-keys (T-code OMJJ), Value string (I also need some information on this) , OMWN and OMWB transactions.

---

There is a close integration b/w FI & MM, actually document flows from MM to FI in the following areas such as,

1. Movement Types:

Used to enable the system to find the predefined posting rules determining how the accounts of financial accounting system are to be posted & to update the stock fields in the matrl master data.(Goods Receipt, Goods Issue, etc)

2. Valuation Class:

Assignment of material to grp of gl account, used to determine the gl accounts that are updated as a result of goods movement.

3. Transaction/Event key:

Used to control the storage or filing of documents & assignment of documents.Used to differeniate b/w various transactions such as goods movement tht occur in inventory.

4. Material Type:

Each material should assign mtrl type in mtrl master record used to update whether changes made in qty are updated in material master record & change in value also updated in stock account.

To know totally how many GL accounts we had created for MM, where we can view that ---

Goto Transaction OMWB - Automatic posting

Click on G/L accounts

Enter Company code and the valuation area (plant)

And that will give you all the accounts you are using in MM account determination.
