Cross company codes payments with F111

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I am trying to process payment requests between two (2) company codes using transaction code F111. For example, a transaction is recorded in company A and company B is paying (paying company and sending company).

Company A is NOT defined as a paying company in customizing, only company B.

When processing payments of company A with F111, I receive a short dump error: company A should be defined in table T042A as a paying company which is not my requirement. I thought that F111 would do exactly as F110 with paying and sending companies.

Is F111 supporting this functionality like in F110? If so, how?

I appreciate receiveing your comments.

F111 is used for bank to bank transfer thru FRFT_B, in other words you can post and pay between GL accounts.

If you want to pay vendor or customer you must use F110 (fbzp)

If you want to pay GL accounts you must use F111 (spro)

May be the problem with payment method.

Can you check bank determination step in FBZP.

Thanks for your help!

All configuration is done in FBZP a while ago since we are using F110 for a long time for interco payments with appropriate payment methods.

My understanding is that F111 does not read the configuration in FBZP when trying to pay company A with company B as defined in FBZP.

Is In House Cash the tool to use for this requirement?

I really appreciate your time

I think help for you?

You can only set up one OBYA entry for each pair of company codes.  You cannot set up different entries for different applications.  The entry set up for the pair of company codes applies to all cross-company transactions posted between the two company codes.

For example, one company might receive an invoice that contains expenses for multiple companies.  The invoice would be entered into the system as:

    Cr. Vendor Co.Cd. A

Dr. Expense Co.Cd. A

Dr. Expense Co.Cd. B

When the document is posted, 2 documents will be created - one in each company code.  The documents need to be balanced in each company code, so the system fills in the receivable and payable accounts from OBYA.

Co.Cd. A

   Cr. Vendor

Dr. Expense

Dr. Cross-company receivable

Co.Cd. B

    Cr. Cross-company payable

Dr. Expense

For a bank to bank transfer from a bank account in Co.Cd. A to a bank account in Co.Cd. B, the system is trying to make the following posting:

    Cr. Outgoing cash Co.Cd. A

Dr. Incoming cash Co.Cd. B

This posting will result in 2 documents:

Co.Cd. A

    Cr. Outgoing cash

Dr. Cross-company receivable

Co.Cd. B

Dr. Incoming cash

    Cr. Cross-company payable

To view existing entries, go into OBYA, fill in 2 company codes and Enter.  If an entry exists for the pair, SAP will display the details of the entry - if no entry exists, it will display a blank entry.  To see all entries, select Goto -> List (or click the List button).

OBYA is found in the IMG under Financial Accounting -> General Ledger Accounting -> Business Transactions -> Prepare Cross-Company Code Transactions.  You can read the IMG documentation to learn more.

Hi,

Hope you have configured Cross Company Code Transactions between Company A and Company B. Secondly, both the company codes i.e. A and B should be assigned to a single Company for such inter company code transactions.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, intercompany is configured and A is assigned to B. The issue is that F111 still requires that company A be defined as a paying company. F110 works perfecly for interco payments.

Is InH House cash the only way to handle cross company payments ?

Thanks,
