Hi Experts

Can we map separate GL for header discount, instead of distribution of discount to multiple line items.

For example

Header

Gross             200

Discount           15

Net                  185

Item level

                             Gross                                                          Net

Item 1                    100                                                             100

item 2                     100                                                             100

Total                      200                                                           200

The discount of 15 should go to one line item in accounting document instead of 2 separate line items.      In other words, discount 15 to be mapped from header to GL account.

Hi Rao,

The answer for your question is No. There is no separate process for posting sales values into gl account (in case of header condition). Revenue account determination is the only procedure to post amounts into respective gl.

Hope, you are aware of how account determination will happen from SD to FI.  If at all, you want to post any value to a specified G/L, the corresponding Account Key should be assigned to the condition type in pricing procedure.  Better try in your system, see how FI postings are happening and post here still if you have any queries.

The requirement is that the discount of both the items to be posted together in a single line item of accounting document, instead of per GL line item per Item in billing..

Further information -

Discount is to be maintained as header condition and the value of this condition type to be posted to GL account. This discount value is to be deducted on net value of the document (Not Item Wise)

As per my knowledge, item condition values can be posted to GL accounts through account determination. Wanted to know if header condition value can be posted to GL accounts?

If yes please suggest the process

Thanks in advance

This is not possible in standard SD/FI interface. You can try with the approach below to see if it works as you've required:

Assign account key ZHD to your discount condition type (Condition type: ZHED).

Implement exit SDVFX008 (function EXIT_SAPLV60B_008), and before the transfer, collect the item values of ZHED to one single line in accounting table and post it.

I had actually made the exact same opposite of this approach before: Customer had requested that tax lines for same tax amounts should be posted as only one item in accounting document. With some tweaks in the mentioned user exit, this can be done, so I don't see why the opposite should not work.
