Account Assignment

Former Member

Hi,

We are working with SRM and R3 as backend. In R3 we have already defined account assignments categories that we are using in our business process. For example we are using:

F Order

K Cost center

P Project

Q Project make-to-order

U Unknown

Now we want to configure the account assignment in SRM for our shopping cart. In SRM are different categories defined and maped by default (preconfiguration) for example.

CC Centro de coste K

OR Orden F

WBS Proyecto de Servicios P

As we can see above the categories U and Q are not defined by default. what do we need to do???? Do we need to create both U and Q in SRM???????

The category U is used by us in R3 in the SP if we don't know the account assignment for a material, what happend in the shopping cart???? how can we add items with account category U (Unknown).

In the shopping cart, how can we define items without account assignment?????? that's because in R3 we can create a SP without account assignment, how is this in SRM???

Thanks!!!!!

Hi Claudia,

Implementation of these Badi's is not mandatory, unless you have any of the below menationsed specific requirements:

1. Note that for each product category that you work with, you have to enter all possible account assignment categories and a G/L account. You can use the Business Add-In BADI BBP_DETERMINE_ACCT if you want to implement a different logic for determining the G/L account.

2. You can use the Business Add-In BBP_ACCCAT_MAP_EXP to change the account assignment category you create a backend purchasing document from a shopping cart (in the Enterprise Buyer system). Meass if you want to change the account assignment category in the follow-on document of the SC.

e.g. SC (SRM) to PO (in backend system)

3. Using the Business Add-In BBP_ACCCAT_MAP_IMP you can control how the account assignment category of the backend document is mapped to the account assignment category in the Enterprise Buyer system, when importing documents with reference to the backend system

e.g. PR (in backend system) to SC (in SRM)

Hi Claudia,

Be careful with account assignment 'U'. As far as I know items with this sort of Account Assignment are not synchronized from ECC to SRM by the BBP_EXTREQ_TRANSFER program.

True!

we also tried to code ECC BADI BBP_EXTREQ_OUT for AAC=U

but could not succeed.

So put a validation that a PR item with AAC=U can not be submitted for transfer programme.

to add,

once you define yr custom AAC in the path mentioned

IMG --> Supplier Relationship management --> SRM --> Cross-Application Basic Settings --> Account Assignment --> Define account assignment categories

you can define further manadatory details for this AAC

eg. for AAC=Asset, you can define asset class is mandatory

for this you need to select the AAC created and go to the detail area in the left of screen

since i don't have system now can't give you exact syntax

i have not worked on this scenario but logically think you will have to map the custom AAC defined in SRM to the available one in ECC in BADI BBP_ACCCAT_MAP_EXP

in the further step for SRM config you can define the GL wrt to prod cat

but if you want a real time budget check with FI budget during SC creation

then you will have to determine the real time ECC GL with BADI ..... DET_ACCOUNT

Hi Claudia,

You can define new account assignment categories in SPRO:

IMG --> Supplier Relationship management --> SRM --> Cross-Application Basic Settings --> Account Assignment --> Define account assignment categories.

You need to assign those new account assignment categories to attributes in Organizational Structure.

You can also define G/L accounts here in the next node.

Also check following Badi

BBP_ACCCAT_MAP_IMP

BBP_ACCCAT_MAP_EXP

BBP_DETERMINE_ACCT
