Intercompany Billing Document Problem

[Former Member]

Dear All,

We configured inter company billing and document splitting each profit center as mandatory, Once sales order places company B, PGI done from company A and sales revenue should go to profit center of company B. (No stocks maintaining company A)

when do billing, system did not create any accounting document and showing error as

Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled

Message no. GLT2201

Diagnosis

The field Profit Center marked as balancing is not filled with any value in line item 001, even after document splitting.

Setup OBYA and OBA7 - RV ticked as Inter company posting.

The error due to profit center not picking to the billing document (only for Inter company). PGI was ok and created document with correct profit center (PC) but when do billing the same PC is not flowing to billing document.

Please advice to solve this.

Thanks

Hi,

Kindly check profit center maintained at

1st Material Master -> Accounting tab

2nd Sales Order ->Header->Account Assignment tab

3rd OKB9->for respective G/L account/Cost center combination.

Thank You,

Hello RB,

Checked given 3 setup. Already done 1, 2. but I maintained OKB9 it did not work. Then FAGL3KEH - General Ledger: Default Profit Ctr has been setup , it worked. Since we maintain one GL account for all profit center that will not be applicable.

Thanks,

Madhawa

If you define document splitting criteria based on Profit Center and if your billing document contains multiple line items with different profit center, this type of error will come.

To check this, Go to IMG Path > Financial Accounting (New) > General Ledger Accounting (New) > Document Splitting > Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger

There check whether the mandatory check box is selected for profit Center. So check in your billing document, which line item does not have profit center.

Hi Lakshmipathi

Thanks.

We defined already based as Profit Center mandatory. Except IC all other subsystem entries are posting properly to the system.

General Ledger View also showing properly document splitting entries based on profit center wise.

We have noticed, till PGI profit center flowed properly but billing stage PC did not flow properly.

Thanks

Hello Madhawa,

Please do not set an account assignment in an item in which you expect an assignment to be derived from document splitting.

If you want to keep that, you will need to fill the assignments by a different method, like either constant or substituion as the

splitting will correctly not work.

In this case i think the profit center is already filled.
