Account key is not triggering only accrual key posted

[Former Member]

Hi,

           In MM pricing procedure for a condition type both account key FRE and accrual key FR1 maintained, but system is posting at the time of GR and IR with accrual key only. Why system is not triggering account key FRE at all, Please through some light

When both keys will be triggered ?

GR

---

Accrual key FR1 GL account credited

IR

------

Accrual key FR1 GL account Debited

Hi

account key will be considered based on condition type settings. you can check your condition type settings via SPRO --> MM -> Purchasing --> Conditions --> Define Price Determination Process --> Define Condition Types.

Hi Srinivas,

             Thanks for your reply.

Yes Accrual check box is selected in my condition type.

1.You mean if accrual check box is not selected then only system will trigger both Account key and accrual key ? Please confirm

2.If Accrual check box is selected then no need to maintain account key , only we can maintain accrual key. Am I right?

3.If Accrual check box is not selected ,if we maintain only Accrual key ,will system throw error?

4.In standard pricing procedure for condition type FRA1 , I removed accrual check box and tested then system is picking only Accrual key FR1,  Next in the pricing procedure statistical check box also deselected and tested its picking only Accrual key FR1 ? not picking account key at all , please check

Hi

below link will give you clear idea on fright. normal account key will be updated at the time of billing. when you do PO or GR this cost will be treated as accruals. coz, later stage this will be charged to customer.

so, from MM point of view this will be treated as accruals.
