FICA: FPO2 Outages

[Former Member]

Hi Group,

Our ISU/CCS system has differences between FICA and FIGL balance. These differences or outages are for reconciliation GL accounts and are reported via FPO2 report (RFKKOP10).

One of the reasons for these outages is - corruption of FICA document amounts after FICA documents are transferred to FIGL.

So we ran FPT1 on entire system to find out all inconsistent or out of balance FICA documents which are also responsible for FPO2 outages. It helped us in identifying few inconsistent documents however we could not find out inconsistent FICA documents responsible for all FPO2 outages.

It would be helpful if you can share any thoughts on - what else can be done to find out inconsistent or out of balance FICA documents? Or any experience or inputs on dealing with FPO2 outages would be helpful.

Thanks,

Hello,

One of the reasons for these outages is - corruption of FICA document amounts after FICA documents are transferred to FIGL.

I did not get your point. Can you please elaborate?

I suggest you use FPO2,FPT5 & FPT7 for recon data.

Alternatively you can compare the data between data base tables DFKKSUMC/DFKKSUM with BESG/BKPF.

Hope this helps

Explanation for '" One of the reasons for these outages is - corruption of FICA document amounts after FICA documents are transferred to FIGL. " ->

Due to some custom code issues in our system, FICA document amounts got corrupted after those were transferred to FIGL.

a) For example, let us say, a FICA document has following entries:

DFKKOP table: Debit $100

DFKKOPK table: Credit $100

________________________________

Total doc. balance: $0 (correct)

b) Let us say, recon. key for this FICA is transferred to FIGL which means that at this point, FICA and FIGL will be in balance. Also, summation of 'amount' column in FPT5 will be zero. And dfkksum/dfkksumc will match with bseg/bkpf.

c) Later on, let us say, due to custom code issue, document amount only in DFKKOP gets corrutped from $100 to $150. Then document will go out of balance by $50 and system will have following entries -

DFKKOP table: Debit $150

DFKKOPK table: Credit $100

___________________________

Total doc. balance: $50 (incorrect)

d) As recon. key of this doc was already closed and transferred, FIGL balance will continue to be $100 for this recon. key.

e) this will result into an outage of $50 between FICA and FIGL which can be checked via FPO2.

So we are trying to find out all such inconsistent documents from our system and we want to know if there is any other way apart from using FPT1 transaction which will give us a list of 'our of balance' FICA documents (because it compares total records with FICA documents)

a very complicated prblm

Have you tried with FPTIM?

Yeh, it is certainly complex. We have already tried FPT1 and believe FPT1M would be same as FPT1.

[Former Member]

FPT1 is for indvidual procressing where as FPT1M is for mass processing. Suggest you to explore the benefits of FPT1M.

Do you know if we need to implement any SAP note to have FPT1M in system? We are using 4.71 and we dont have FPT1M in our system.

[Former Member]

It is available in ECC. In your case I'd suggest to use CATT script.
