FI data validation in shopping cart

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are using SRM 4.0 (Server 5.0) and ECC 5.0 in the back end.

We enabled the FI validation in back end system in SRM configurtion. While creating the shopping cart it is validating only the cost elements and G/L account are available in SAP. But it is not validating whether the combination of cost element is allowed in backend.

For example: G/L account x can be used only against cost center. If we are using that G/L account against WBS element it is not giving any error message at the time of creating of shopping cart rather it gives an error while creating PR after approval.

After the shopping cart has been approved it is not creating the PR. Using SRM monitor we need to change the G/L account to the correct one and retransfering it.

Is there a way by which we can validate the above scenario at the time of creation of shopping cart itself.

Hi,

Please check the setting in cross application basic setting customization

Cross application basic setting----->Account assignment----->Define the G/L account to be used based on prodcut category and account asiignment catgory

There select new entries

Enter = prodcut category ID

Choose= the account assignment category

Enter = GL Account

Execute

The above setting determines which G/L account based on the combination of Product Category ID and Account Assignment Category

Hope it helps.

Thanks

Hi

Hope that you review the cart in cost assignment before you order the cart.

check all KNT attributes are correct or not in the PPOMA_BBP.

Otherwise you can use BBP_DETERMINE_ACCT Badi for this purpose.

refer this Note 815849 - FAQ: Account assignment system
