Hi,

Technically, almost any field in COBL structure could be added in FMDERIVE; this goes for vendor/customer as well. But would you do such a thing?

Dear Eli Sir,

In the current project we have a Z - Development for the expenses booking..

In this case requirement is : single G/L is used for expenses booking, however several commitment items are there for the same G/L in FM

Whenever Z- Program is executed .. it will post entry always as .. Expenditure A/C Dr.

                                                                                                       Vendor A/C Cr.

In this case I need budget check...

Hi,

Vendor, even if you bring it to FMDERIVE, will be relevant for FM objects derivation on that line, not on expenditure. Second, how would you base your rule? Basing it on a single value of a vendor is not making sense, as you might have thousands of vendors.

Dear Eli Sir,

Sorry for late reply... many thanks for reply

My assumption is can't we base a rule based on the each vendor number wise for a single G/L number...?

Kindly suggest..

Please suggest how to add a new field in FMDERIVE through COBL structure.. do I need to take ABAPER help?

Yes, you would require a help of ABAP. You can find information about adding a field to FMDERIVE on this forum: I have answered to similar question on several occassions. Basing a logic on a vendor number doesn't make much sense to me, though... Unless, you have some sort of a pattern, based on which, you could build ranges.

Dear Eli Sir,

Kindly suggest..

Actually we are planning to add "SUBTYPE" = Subsidy type is stored in the (Z-table: ZTM_SUBSIDY) this is custom development program for Sugar Cane Procurement

This is an expenditure to the company.. there are several subsidy type are there and all these are going to posted to one Expenditure G/L account, but budget check is required for each subsidy type wise

Entry for each subsidy will be : Subsidy Dr./Vendor Cr.

My intention is to write a derivation as : Source will G/L (single g/l expenditure for subsidy) and Subsidy types (several subsidy types) and taget will be FC/CI for many combinations

Can I suggest abaper for addition of subsidy type as per this link: http://scn.sap.com/thread/2077732

Hi,

In the thread you are talking about, I explained about a possibility of enhancing FMDERIVE with a field from COBL strucutre. However, your SUBTYPE is a z-field: if it's not a part of COBL (or it's include), then you wouldn't be able to pass it to FMDERIVE either.
