Hi Salvator,

Thanx for the response, do you perhaps have derivation rules documented in a configuration rationale?

Can you avail that document to me, with a sample of derivation rules for ECC 6.0?

epost address is on my business card.

Kind Regards,

HiAll,

In 4.7 we used to derive Warehouse fund centre from the combination of CoCode, Plant & Valuation Area in Tcode OFBW.

How is it done in ECC6.0?

I tried setting up a derivation rule, deriving a fund centre from exactly the above charecteristic i.e. plant, cocode & valuation area but the system gave me errors.

Can anyone help?

from ERP5

The following customizing is now obsolete:

The settings "Unassigned Purchase Orders" and "Goods Issue" in Funds Management Updating Control (Transaction OFUP)

The setting "Assign Warehouse Funds Center" (Transaction FMLF)

The setting "Select Transaction Types" (Transaction OFBW)

Now you use a derivation rule in FMDERIVE

To ensure full compatibility with the old functionality the derivation tool provids three additional flags :

FLG_INVNTRY_PSTNG : Indicates that the current posting is an inventory posting

VAL_CLASS: Valuation Class

MOVE_TYPE: Movement Type (Inventory Management)

But you should know before the warehouse concept you need in your company as SAP proposes 4 warehouse concept.

But you can create warehouse funds center as a normal funds center and after create a simple derivation rule to link Plant, valution class to funds center

And another one to derive the stock commitment to the fund and the funds center

And another one described here

And of course don't forget the customising under integration of maintain field status for assignment FM account asignments for purchase requisitions and for purchase orders.

best regards
