ACCENTURE SAP FICO INTERVIEW QUESTIONS

1. What is IBAN Number in SAP? What does it works?

IBAN stands for "International bank account number" while creating bank accounts in FICO we can use this . Most of the time IBAN is used for foreign currency payments time.

2. How can we block, a particular payment term for a particular vendor.

We have Two Mothods for Vendor Block in APP

1. Vendor Master data : Block under Automation Payment Transaction2. APP Run : Edit Proposal Button in APP

3. Document level: (FB02) in Change mode we can block the

4. Terms of payment ( Payment terms ) OBB8

3. I run my app and I printed my check and after that I find that I made a mistake of wrong payment to related vendor…. now what can I do…. can I stop app.. And can I stop payment and can I delete proposal and payment in app???? And can I run new app towards new vendor…..

You will not be able to delete proposal after payment run. If you want to delete proposal then,

First you have to manually reset & reverse the posting generated FBRA.

Second, You have to delete payment run from EDIT > PAYMENT > DELETE OUTPUT.

Third and then you will be able to delete proposal EDIT > PROPOSAL > DELETE.

For e.g. It is like you have executed the third step and then you want to reverse the second step. So, you have to reverse or delete the third step and then you will be able to delete the second step.

4. I have two companies one is parent company & another sister company. Both companies have same vendors & customers. Can I assign dunning procedure for both companies?

U have to assign a dunning procedure seperately for each customer and vendor in their respective master record in company code level.And then select company codes both

parant and sister concern.then select cust and vend in parameter maintain.

5. What is internal number range? What advantages & risk?

if we assigne internal num range it picks up automatically like 1,2,3, that of douctment numbers

If we assinge extrnal num range to system then we can assigne any number in between the range. if given 10000 to 199999. we can pick up 100000 num then 100020 100030 100007 like that.

6. We have a company with 4 branches and one factory. How do you start configuring

if this is the case first we need to define a company code in FI(OX02), AND Define business areas as given 4 branches in questionary.

Define plant that to be assigned company code. 

7. Can u explain what is the purchase life cycle and with entries?

1. When PO is created :

---- No Entry -----

2. When GR is posted

Inventory Account dr (Transaction Key BSX in OBYC) To GRIR account (T.Key WRX in T-code OBYC)

3. When Invoice is posted

GRIR account Dr. Vendor account Cr.

4. Payment made to Vendor

Vendor A/c Dr To Bank Clearing A/c Cr. 

8. What is the t-code to see the error message list in sap?

1 You can see the SAP error message details through SAP transaction code: SE91

2 In SAP FI Module, you can control the SAP error message number through SAP transaction code: OBA5

3 Normally SAP message numbers are issued like AA1654 First two digits (alpha) is called application area next digits are called message number5 Sometimes, you may not be able to see the SAP messages in SAP transaction code:

OBA5, in such case you need to go to OBMSG transaction code and include the message number to your application area, then you need to come to back to OBA5 to make it information / warning / switch off / error (as the case may be).

9. What are the alternative g/l accounts?

The account number from your legacy system or2. Account number from a country chart of accounts if your corporate group uses a standard chart of accounts.

10. What is the entry date, document date, posting date, value date, and next run date.

Entry Date - System Date on which document is entered

Document Date - Date of the supporting document ie PO/invoice/ Bill date

Posting date - date on which entry is posted to the ledgeror accounting date

Value date - the date on which doc is valued. ie for forexvaluation the value date is needed for calculating theexchange rate difference

Next run date - this is for payment run. what the next dayfor calculating the payment due document and discountcalculation 

11. How a ticket (run time problem) comes to a junior sap consultant (at support level)? In which server he solves the ticket (run time problem)?Tickets will be receiving from Production Server. Solutions should be depends on client service desk. We have to give the answers through emails.

If it is configuration change we have to ask Change Request form from the client. Then we have to do configuration after that it moves to testing server. Once consultant checks if there is no error it will be transported to

Quality server, there user has to check and give User Acceptance testing. Then only the requests move to production server.

12. How to find particular G/L accounts relate to Cost center.

The cost centre will be assigned to Cost element (GL account) by default in t.code-Ks02 or if automatic default account has to be assigned fro GL account maintain in tcode-OKB9.

If not cost centre related to company code can be manually entered to nay GL account.

.

13. Brief about g/r I/r clearing. Can’t v avoid this a/c? Process?

Quantity differences between goods receipt and invoice receipt for a purchase order result in a balance on the GR/IR clearing account.

If the quantity invoiced is larger than the quantity received, the system then expects further goods receipts for this purchase order to clear the balance.If the quantity received is larger than the quantity invoiced, the system then expects further invoices for this purchase order to clear the balance.If no more goods or invoices are to be received, you must clear the balance manually.

This can be done in different ways:

You can return the extra goods to the vendorYou can cancel the invoice.You can clear the GR/IR clearing account manually. 

14. Disadvantages of Distribution in Controlling

distribution can not be used for the allocation of secondary cost

15. Can we create P.O.for multiple vendors? How can we create it?

yes you can create p.o. for multiple vendors by using "ME21N"Only one p.o. number can belongs to one vendor. same p.o.number (same p.o.) can not belongs to multiple vendors

16. What is the T-code of transferring gl balances from one fiscal year to another fiscal year?

GL balance transfer    F.16/FAGLGVTR

Vendor/Customer balance transfer F.07

17. How to upload asset balances in the middle of the year from legacy to SAP? Let me know full process,?

There are 2 steps :-

Previuos year :-

1. Take dump of Assets with aquisation value ,Accumulated depreciation values and capitalization dates.

2. Take assets up to previous closing and make sure acquisation and accumulated balance must be tally with GL balance.

3. Create LSMW for AS91 > Create assets with upload values. Check AR02 report where you can get asset class wise aquisation and accmulated depreciation total.

4. Go to OASV make JV as Asset GL account .........Dr & Initial balance ...........Cr  & Inital balance ........Dr and Accumulated Asset GL account..........Cr.

5. Make sure FS10N balances and AR02 balance must be match.

Current year process :-

1. Take dump of current year acquisations with asset value date / capitalization date and amounts

2. Create assets with using of AS01

3. Create LSMW for F-90 / FB01 with posting key of 70 & 50. 70 Asset number getting debit and 50 is Inital balnce getting Credit.

4. Then Run the Depreciation through AFAB.

18. if a document parked in one fiscal year can be posted in next fiscal year.?

No it is not possible to forwardthe parked document into the next fiscal year because parked document means if any adjustments can be happend in the future days, for that purpose we have temporarily saved that document. After doing the complete transactions in that we will save that document.

19. if customer is a vendor in this scenario how u customize ?

If a vendor is also a customer, or vice versa, you can have the payment program and the dunning program clear the vendor and customer open items against each other. You can also select the customer line items when you display the vendor line items for this account.

Before you can clear items between a vendor and customer account, you must:

1. Create a customer master record for the vendor who is also a customer.2. Enter the customer account number in the Customer field in the control section of the

general data in the vendor master record.3. Enter the vendor account number in the Vendor field in the control section of the general

data in the customer master record.4. Select Clrg with vend. and Clrg with cust. in the company data in both the customer and

vendor master records. In this way, each company code can decide separately whether it wants to clear the customer with the vendor.

20. WHAT IS FREE SELECTION?

Free selection tab in F110

is to

"include" or exclude the values in your payment proposal.

When you press F4 or drop down list in this tab, you get

Document

Vendor master record

Customer master record

Select the relevant field, then fill the field values.

If you select "Exclude values", those values will be excluded, otherwise they will be included.

You cannot select more than 3 fields

21. What do you mean by Procurement to Cash & Order to Cash?

Procure to pay (purchase to pay or P2P) is the process of obtaining and managing the raw materials needed for manufacturing a product or providing a service. It involves the transactional flow of data that is sent to a supplier as well as the data that surrounds the fulfillment of the actual order and payment for the product or service. According to the Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply, procure to pay should be a seamless process from point of order to payment. Technology can assist this process.

The goal of a procure-to-pay software system is to automate processes by introducing efficiency controls. For instance, to enforce buying controls, the software might cross-reference purchasing budgets to ensure compliance with pre-defined buying limits. A requisition that was within pre-defined limits would be programmatically routed for approval, converted into a purchase order once approved and immediately sent to the correct supplier by email.

A sophisticated procure to pay system is capable of extracting invoice and payment data from a general ledger, enterprise resource planning (ERP) or customer relationship management (CRM) systems while also accepting transaction data from banks, vendors, shipping and other outside sources and reconciling complex and multiple supplier statements to payments and good received.

Procure to pay is sometimes looked at as a subsystem of supplier relationship management

Order to cash (OTC or O2C) is a set of business processes that involve receiving and fulfilling customer requests for goods or services.

An order to cash cycle consists of multiple sub-processes including:

Customer order is documented Order is fulfilled or service is scheduled Order is shipped to customer or service is performed Invoice is created and sent to customer Customer sends payment /Collection Payment is recorded in general ledger

22. Bank Master Key is created at client level or Company code level? Illustrate with examples & your prior project experience?

Bank Keys can be created at country level in FI01 T-Code not at company code level. Here bank keys are different from House Banks.

23. Can I know what are the T.Codes for calculating Tax Procedure.AND Assigning tax procedure to Country of our Company Code.?

for calculating tax procedur we use t.code obyzhear we give procedure for tax

24. What is enterprise structure? What all comprises an enterprise structure?

Enterprise structure is the base of configuration of anorganization. Here we have to configure Company Code,Business areas, fiscal year variants, controlling area,chart of accounts.

25. How are controlling areas and company codes related?

The controlling area is the central organizational unit of the Controlling (CO) component. You use the controlling area to carry out cost accounting.

If you implement the Controlling component, postings are forwarded from Financial Accounting to Controlling. During posting, you can specify any additional account assignments relevant for cost accounting (for example, cost center or internal order). You must assign a controlling area to your company code to ensure that this data is forwarded to Controlling for further processing for cost accounting.

The company code and controlling area do not have to exist in a one-to-one relationship. You have the following options for this assignment:

The company code can correspond to exactly one controlling area (see the following figure, 1).

Several company codes can correspond to one controlling area (see the following figure, 2).

26.What is the difference between Business Area, Profit center & Profitability Segment?

Business area is an organisational unit which corresponds to the specific business segment or area of responsibility. Identification of business area helps in segment reporting of a company in its financial statements. Business areas can be identified based on the products of the company or based on geographical area.

Profit centers are internal areas of a company that have the responsibility for achieving target profits or productivity goals.

The objective of business area is more for reporting purposes whereas profit center allows to analyse areas of responsibility and to delegate responsibility to decentralised units (eg., the various divisions within a company). Thus, profit center are basically treated as "companies within a company" and ensures effective control.Profitability Segment corresponds to market segment. The market segments can be defined as products, product groups, customers, customer groups, geographic areas, etc. For example, a company may wish to analyze profitability for a specific group of products that the company sells to a particular customer (or group of customers). When setting up CO-PA, the company will have broad flexibility to choose whichever characteristics are relevant for defining the company's market segments. Each unique combination of characteristic values (e.g. sales of product A to customer X) defines a profitability segment.

Another viewpoint:

27.Difference between Profit Center and Business Area

Business area will have many profit centers. For example Vehicle is a business area in a company. Vehicle can be cars and Bikes etc. Here Vehicle is business area and Cars and Bike are profit centers. In broad Vehicle is a profit center. But as it has sub areas those are profit centers. So profit centers cannot be replaced with business area and vice versa. We can replace business area by Profit centre, only condition is that it should be in same controlling area. The business area is more like a business unit of a company. You can have multiple profit centers within a business area.

Main distinguish factor is that distribution and assessment is possible in profit center but not in business area.

One more distinction is that Business area need not be attached to any organization structure. But profit centres can be created only under the controlling area. Business area can be across controlling area.

Business area concept is used for making strategic decisions by the management whereas the primary purpose of profit centre accounting is responsibility accounting.

what data is required for automatic a/c determination for tax amounts?

Rules, Posting keys, Tax Code, Country, Tax Type (Input Tax / Output Tax), GL accounts for Tax & TAX Condition Type or account key/Transaction event key i.e. MWST, VST.

What is the difference between depreciation and accumulated depreciation?What is the journal entry?

They are related. Depreciation is the amount of fixed assets used up during an accounting period. It is reported in the income statement as an expense. Accumulated deprecation is a contra asset account in which all past depreciation expanse for an asset is recorded. Let's look at an example.

You buy equipment (an asset) for $10,000 with a useful life of 10 years and no salvage value. The equipment account is debited $10,000 and cash is credited. Each year that passes 10 percent of the equipment is used up. The equipment may appear the same, but its useful life is shorter. You have gotten 1/10th of the benefit from your investment.

Using up an asset is an expense. To record the expense, you debit an expense account and reduce the cost of the asset by the amount used up. with equipment however, we don't reduce the $10,000 cost directly. We create a contra-asset account called accumulated depreciation, to that the cost is maintained in the asset account. At the end of the first year of use the entry is

dr - depreciation expense..........1,000 cr - accumulated depreciation ...................1,000

The expense is reported on the income statement. The

accumulated depreciation account now has a $1,000 credit and is reported on the balance sheet right after the equipment account. The $10,000 debit in equipment less the $1,000 credit in accumulated depreciation shows that the book value of the asset is $9,000.

Next year the process is repeated, and accumulated depreciation will grow to $2,000. The equipment will have a book value of $8,000, and so on year after year. Each year the depreciation expense is $1,000 and the book value of the equipment declines.

Remember that the income statement accounts (temporary accounts) are closed at the end of the year, while the accumulated depreciation (a permanent account) keeps growing.

acquisition and production costs (FI-AA)

Asset Accounting (FI-AA)

The upper limit for valuation of an asset in the balance sheet.

For external acquisitions, acquisition costs include all expenses for the acquisition including incidental acquisition costs, minus reductions to the purchase price.

Incidental costs include:

Freight charges Forwarding costs Commissions Costs for building a foundation, and so on

Reductions in purchase price can be:

Rebates Cash discounts Bonuses Price reductions because of defects Subsidies granted by a third party, and so on

For in-house acquisitions, production costs include:

Direct and indirect costs, including materials handling overhead

Direct labor costs, including payroll overhead Special production costs Fair administrative expense (can be included)

Disadvantages of Using Business Area

Here the disadvantages:

1. while doing Automatic posting (E.g)Input or Output Tax

it will not update in business area. (not only tax whatever

automatic posting will not update in business area).

2. In Assets - Deprication also diffcult.

3. In Equity Capital & Share Capital - is diffcult to

update in Business Area.

How due date of a document is calculated?

Due date of a document is calculated according to the terms of payment and the base line date. Terms of payment tell us what rate of discount (if any) is entitled on various time lines. Baseline is the date from which we start calculating the due date. Meaning if we allow our customers a 14 days credit period and the sales were made on the 1st of June, the baseline would be 1st June and Due date would be the 15th June. (1st - 14th credit period, Due on 15th).

What does document header control?

document date, posting date, company code, fiscal year, document type,

Which dates are taken into consideration while running a payment run?

while runnig a payment run we need to consider three dates

1. Payment run date

2. Documents entered upto date &

3. Next payment run date.

What are the documents require for Born in sale in relation to sales tax?

TAX INVOICE, ALONGWITH DELIVERY CHALLAN IN LOCAL STATE SALES "g" FORM OR INTERSTATE SALES "c" FORM ISSUED BY SATE SALES TAX DEPARTMENT

What is sub ledger? How is it linked to GL?

Sub Ledgers are A/P , A/R and Asset Accounting to FI Module.All the Postings to these sub modules must reflect in general ledger.1)All the postings of A/P and A/R will reflect in general ledger through reconciliation accounts.Reconciliation accounts must mentined in customer and vendormaster records(XK01 and XD01.2)All the postings of Asset Accounting will reflect in general leder through Account Determination.Account Determination mentioned in Asset Class.Asset Masterrecord is created using this asset class.All gl accounts are assinged in "assing gl accounts config step(AO90)

Reverse a cleared item to repost.

Simply reset the clearing document, do not reverse it. Upon resetting clearing document AUGBL, all 100 invoices will become open in vendor ledgers ,choose the one you want to reverse and reverse it in MM then FI using MR08 and then FB08 respectively. There is not risk of duplicate payment of invoices since the remaining invoices can be cleared manually in F-44 against their payment document or in APP. Please note that if the goods procured through PO have been consumed then wrong MIGO done can not be reversed ...

subsidiary ledger

Special or supporting ledger (such as cost ledger, purchases ledger, sales ledger) that provides more detailed information about individual accounts than a general ledger. Used by firms with

larger number of customers (or creditors), these ledgers divide masses of financial data into more manageable parts. Total of all individual accounts in a subsidiary ledger equals the balance of the corresponding summary account (called control account) in the general ledger.

Group of chart of account- It is purpose of Consoildation of G/L Account7. Block- It is indector for when you creat account group, No other company can copy your account group until is finished.OB13

Activity Types

The activity type classifies the specific activities that are provided by one or more cost centers within a company.

If a cost center provides activities for other cost centers, orders, processes, and so on, then this means that its resources are being used. The costs of these resources need to be allocated to the receivers of the activity. Activity types serve as tracing factors for this cost allocation.

In an internal activity allocation, the quantity of the activity, such as the number of repair hours, is entered into the R/3 System. The system calculates the associated cost based on the activity price and generates a debit to the receiver and a credit to the sender for both the quantity and costs. Internal activity is allocated using secondary cost elements , which are stored in the master data of the activity types as default values.

You can restrict the use of the activity type to certain types of cost centers by entering the allowed cost center categories in the activity type master record. You can enter up to

eight allowed cost center categories, or leave the assignments "unrestricted" by entering an asterisk (*).

The activity type category is used to determine whether, and how and activity type is entered and allocated. For example, you can allow some activities to be allocated directly, but specify for others that they are either not allocated, or allocated indirectly only.

Statistical Key Figures

Statistical key figures such as number of employees or length of phone calls, are statistical values that describe cost centers, profit centers, and overhead orders. They can also describe a value for a particular activity provided by a cost center, such as the number of employees who make repairs at the transport cost center (an activity-dependent statistical key figure).

You can post both plan and actual statistical key figures. You can use statistical key figures as the tracing factor for periodic transactions such as

distribution or assessment, and for key figure analysis. You define statistical key figures as a fixed value or as a totals value: The fixed value (such as "employees") is carried over from the period in which it is

entered to all subsequent periods of the same fiscal year. You need enter a new posting only if the value changes. The fiscal year total is the average of the period totals.

You post the totals value (for example "telephone calls") only to the period in which it was entered. For totals values, the fiscal year total is the total of all period values.

You can transfer statistical key figures from the Logistical Information System (LIS) by assigning a key figure from the LIS to a statistical key figure in Cost Center Accounting.

what is document flow? and in which table document flow data wil be store?

Document Flow shows if a document is open, being processed or completed. It also show references for a document.You can check the document flow if you go to "Environment" tab and click on "Check Document flow"Sales Document flow is stored in VBFA table.

What are the authorization objects which are always present in user master record?

For user master record as u must be knowing that different tabs of UMR..So as per my understanding As UMR stores information of users...Like his name, roles assigned to him, Licence data.Objects which are always present for UMR are:S_USER_AGR,S_USER_GRP,S_USER_AUT,S_USER_PRO and each of this object has its own importance...bcoz S_USER_AGR helps to maintain roles assigned, S_USER_GRP helps to maintain Auth. group in Logon Data and S_USER_AUT AND S_USER_PRO helps to maintain set of Auth. profiles and different Authorizations included in each profile....

what is the use of system field 'SY-LOOC'? when will we use it?

Search Help Exit

Use

A search help describes the standard input help process. In exceptional cases it may be necessary to deviate in some points from this standard. You use a search help exit to implement such a deviation from the standard.

The input help process must look as much the same as possible throughout the entire system. This is why search help exits must be used only for exceptions.

Features

A search help exit is a function module that has a predefined interface. A search help exit is called at certain times by the help processor. The administrative data of the help processor is passed to the search help exit using the interface.

You can store your own program logic that manipulates this administrative data in the search help exit. Individual steps of the input help process can be skipped with a search help exit.

Defining Withholding Tax Types and Withholding Tax Codes

Use

Define all types and codes that you require for the countries whose company codes you wish to change over to extended withholding tax.

Note that when you convert the withholding tax data, you must assign a withholding tax type and a withholding tax code for extended withholding tax to each withholding tax code for classic withholding tax (see Assigning Withholding Tax Codes and Withholding Tax Types). This enables you to assign several different withholding tax codes for classic withholding tax to one withholding tax type, as long as the following settings for the withholding tax codes for classic withholding tax are the same:

Tax base net Withholding tax on payment posting

SAP recommends assigning withholding tax codes for classic withholding tax where the above settings are the same to the same withholding tax type for extended withholding tax.

If, in the future, you want to post several kinds of withholding tax in one document, you need several withholding tax types.

If you require functions that were previously not provided by classic withholding tax, but that are covered by extended withholding tax (for example, accumulation), after the withholding tax changeover, you must define a new withholding tax type for each function required.

Procedure

Defining withholding tax types (required)

1. In the Implementation Guide for Financial Accounting, choose Financial Accounting Global Settings à Withholding Tax à Extended Withholding Tax à Calculation à Withholding Tax Types à Define Withholding Tax Type for Payment Posting.

2. Define the required extended withholding tax types as described in the table below, otherwise the system cannot assign them to the corresponding classic withholding tax codes.

Screen area Select... If...

Calculation/Base amount Net amount Net base for tax contributions is selected in the corresponding classic withholding tax code

Gross amount Net base for tax contributions is not selected in the corresponding classic withholding tax code

Do not select any other fields in the withholding tax type.

Defining withholding tax codes (required)

1. In the Implementation Guide for Financial Accounting, choose Financial Accounting Global Settings à Withholding Tax à Extended Withholding Tax à Calculation à Withholding Tax Codes à Define Withholding Tax Codes.

2. Define the required extended withholding tax codes as described in the table below, otherwise the system cannot assign them to the corresponding classic withholding tax codes.

Screen area Field Must contain...

General data Off. w/tax key The value of the Withholding tax code field from the corresponding classic withholding tax code.

Base amount Percentage subject to tax

The value of the same field from the corresponding classic withholding tax code.

Posting Post. indic. The value 1

Calculation With/tax rate The value of the same field from the corresponding classic withholding tax code.

W. tax. form. Select this field if the same field is selected in the corresponding classic withholding tax code.

Reporting information

Region The value of the same field from the corresponding classic withholding tax code.

Prov. tax code The value of the same field from the

corresponding classic withholding tax code.

Income type The value of the same field from the corresponding classic withholding tax code.

If, in classic withholding tax, you have made an entry in the field Reduced rate in the withholding tax code, you must define this information in the vendor master record in extended withholding tax.

Make the required Customizing settings after the withholding tax changeover.

For more information about the system settings required for withholding tax exemption, see Carrying Out Postprocessing for the Withholding Tax Data Conversion

.

If, after the changeover, you wish to post withholding tax with reunification tax, note that reunification tax is not explicitly defined in the extended withholding tax function, but can be reflected by a separate withholding tax type.

Make the required Customizing settings after the withholding tax changeover.

Suppose I have one asset. I want to post depreciation for first 6 months 2 shifts and second 6 months 3 shifts. How do u configure this in asset accounting? explain me?

Yes you configure shift depreciation in the system. First you need to activate the Shift factor field in the asset master data. Here you can define the shift with proper time interval.

Secondly you need to set variable depreciation portion in the depreciation area to 100%.

Thirdly You need to derive the shift factor based on the rate specified in the key assigned to the asset.

for example -

Rate for single shhift - 10%Double shift 15%Tripple shift - 20%

Let us say you have assigned single shift rate in the asset then

Shift factor for single shift => 1Double shift - 15/10 => 1.5Tripple Shift - 20/10 -=>2

Is Profit Center is created before Cost Center in CO ? if yes, then why?

yes u can, bcoz cost center has to assign with profit centers.

: My company has 2 mode of payment method. 1- is resudial method and 2. is partial method. Now the scenario was I have to clear the customer, which haven't made payment within the specified time, in that case I have to charge interest on that customer. Now, the question is that which mode of payment should I follow to clear that customer.What will be the appropriate payment method inrespect of company rules? and plz. give the reason.

Normally in the company's when the are clearing the payment they will use standard payment so in your company if u dont have that option or else rights then payment need to pay like last partial payment bcoz residual payment will use when agreement will closed, so at last residual payment will use for reagreement not for payment clearing.

Activity Type Planning 

Use

Normally, each cost center provides a portion of the services in the activity process of the whole enterprise. This does not apply to cost centers that were created for allocation purposes only.

This portion of the activity process can be quantified into one or more activity types, depending on the cost center category. Activity types are used as a synonym of "Allocation base" as used in business publications.

Activity types are used to determine the quantity-based output of a cost center. The plan activity quantities of production and service cost centers must be reconciled with the master production schedule in logistics. This determines the required plan activity quantity, as well as the plan capacity.

Activity types are used primarily to control the activity quantities on the cost centers. This enables you to measure the operating rate or the rate of capacity utilization of a cost center.

The following examples describe how to plan measurable activity quantities. You can enter or confirm these activity quantities in the actual data. Valuating the activity quantities with either iterative or manual prices leads to secondary costs on the receivers (for example, cost centers or orders).

Production cost centers can usually measure their portion of the activity process exactly. The production cost center SF1 4210 manufactures semi-finished parts to produce machines that are sold to the external market. To do this, it uses the Lathing and Welding activities. These activities can be quantified and measured exactly so that each semi-finished part is to be lathed for 30 minutes and welded for 5 minutes. This means that the activity of this production cost center can be measured using the activity types Lathing minutes and Welding minutes.

Administrative cost centers cannot usually measure their portion of the activity process in the same way as the production cost centers. For example, the personnel cost center hires new employees for production, carries out payroll accounting, and conducts appraisals. Many administrative activities are performed on this cost center that cannot be quantified directly in terms of end products (= cost objects) sold to the external market.

what is the 'o' and '9' level dunning? can any one please specify the names of each 9 dunning level?

Every time you can dun a customer you are crossing one level of dunning. Though you can dun upto a maximum of nine times , you would normally resort to legal help after dunning three or four times, at the most. The number of dunning levels you need can be configured and theoretically it ranges from 0 to 9 levels ( 0 if your company is run by an inefficient management which does not bother to collect 

money on time and 9 if your management is too liberal with your customers.

Version Management 

You need version management if you want to adjust objects that are not supported by the Modification Assistant. Place your cursor on the object concerned and choose Version management.

You can use the version management function for Repository objects when making modification adjustments.

SPDD and SPAU need three versions for an adjustment:

1. Version of the new release (active version)2. Version that existed before the object was modified by the customer3. Version that existed after the object was modified by the customer

For Which Objects Can Versions Be Created?

Report RSVCDI00 provides an overview of the objects for which versions can be created.

Creating Versions

The aim of version management is to keep track of all changes made to a Repository object. Therefore, the system automatically creates versions:

Before a Repository object is modified

Each object modified is added to a change request. If the newest version in version management is not identical with the active version, the system saves the object status that existed before the change was made in version management. Such backup copies are identifed by an S or I in the version overview.

When a change request is released

When you release the change request containing the objects modified, the system creates versions. The request number is displayed in the version overview together with the respective version.

To avoid impacts on runtime, no versions are created when objects are imported. In fact, this is not necessary because the change history of the object was completely recorded in the development system. The system nevertheless creates a note in the version overview when an object has changed as a result of an import.

If required, you can also create versions when importing objects. This makes sense, for example, if the development system is reinstalled at regular intervals and the versions recorded there are consequently lost.

As a prerequisite, you must set the    profile parameter  VERS_AT_IMP to ALWAYS in the Transport Management System (the default value is NEVER ).

The system then additionally creates versions:

Before the import

If the newest version in the version database is not identical with the active version, the system creates a backup copy immediately before the import. These versions are identified by an S in the version overview.

After the import

After the import, the system creates a version of every object imported. The number of the request imported is displayed in the version overview together with the version created. If an object is contained in several requests which are imported simultaneously (using tp import all , for example), the system creates only one version of this object after the last request has been imported.

In a production system, these versions then tell you exactly which status of an object was active at a particular time.
