Hi,

 

We have problem with Fiori application Revenue.

 

As config documentation specify we have add cost element group in backend SAP named REVN and we have add revenue account in this cost element group. The cost element category of revenue account is 11.

 

The problem is that the app fiori revenue display negative amount.

 

Is it possible to change the sign of revenu in FIORI or in backend SAP but we want keep revenue account with cost element category 11 because we want revenue in COPA account based.

 

Have you others solutions ?

 

Thank you for your help.

Liquidity forecast and cash position

$

0

Hi friends,

 

I'm trying to set cash position and liquidity forecast (FF7AN And FF7BN), after I applied note 2255996, in SAP Simple Finance, without success.

 

The settings performed are:

 

  1. Activation of cash management and forecast in company code (trx OT29)
  2. Definition of cash management accounts names (OT16)
  3. Definition of grouping structures (OT17)
  4. Range maintenance (OT20)
  5. Planning levels defined (OT12)
  6. Planning groups defined (OT13)

 

The tables FDSB for GL accounts, FDSR for customers and FDFIEP for vendors, aren't be filled after execute business transactions like purchase orders creation and so on.

 

In previous versions when this occurred, I execute the following programs:

 

  1. RFFDDL00 / Program for Deleting Cash Mgt Data from FI/MM/SD/TR
  2. RFFDKU00 / Transfer Open Item Accounts to Cash Management
  3. RFFUEB00 / Copy G/L Bank Account Balances to the Cash Position
  4. RFFDIS00 / Reorganization of Cash Management and Forecasting

 

When I run the last program (RFFDIS00) the system showed the message "Function is not available", like the attached picture.

 

Another way to fill the required data for the liquidity forecast, is executing FDFD transaction, but doesn't display data correction option, not like in older SAP versions (i.e. SAP ECC 6.0).

 

Somebody can use the liquidity forecast and cash position in S4Hana? Any help will be useful, thanks in advance.

 

Best regards,

Simon.

Year-end Close Process with S/4HANA Finance

Hello!

 

I'm trying to educate myself in the wonderful world of S/4HANA Finance and specifically the Year-end Close Process.

 

I couldn't find any detailed technical information regarding the Year-end Close Process.

 

What kind of entries/records does S/4HANA Finance post/create with this process?

Is it true that there are no aggregates anymore with beginning balances for a fiscal year? If so, how does that work for balance sheet accounts with lots of transactions (think inventory, cash), especially after data aging of data to cold storage?

 

Hope someone can explain this process with S/4HANA Finance.

 

Thanks!

New Asset Accounting

Hi Experts,

 

S/4 HANA Finance is installed (1511) in our system and we have set up parallel currencies in General Ledger Accounting - Local Currency INR,Controlling Area currency USD and Group Currency EUR.The General Ledger and Asset Accounting currency should be in sync in Ledger approach hence,we have created depreciation areas for both leading and non-leading ledgers for both the currencies- INR and EUR.

 

However, while processing AUC for WBS elements ,system throws  error that "AUC requires area in the Controlling Area currency USD". Error screenshot is below :-

 

After creating depreciation area for controlling currency in t codes OADB,OABC and OABD, while saving the configuration for controlling area currency in the configuration " Specify the Use of Parallel Currencies" , system does not allow to save data and throws error that "Controlling Area currency is not defined in Financial Accounting".

 

Do we need to define depreciation area for controlling area currency also though it is mandatory to keep only General Ledger and Asset Accounting currencies in sync in ledger approach ?

Or

If it is mandatory to define depreciation area for controlling area currency then is there any configuration which is missed out that has lead to error "Controlling Area currency is not defined in Financial Accounting" ?

 

Please suggest.

Thanks in advance!

What version of S/4HANA Simple Finance without Simple Logistics (SLOG)

$
0
0

Hi,

 

 

i don't know if this is the right place for this question, but here goes:

 

 

we have a SAP ECC 6.07 on netweaver 7.4 system that runs on HANA.(So this is Business Suite power by HANA)

The customer wants the system be upgraded / updated to S/4HANA Simple Finance on the latest level ,but without Simple Logistics because of a current configuration with SRM.

 

As far as I see it , it is not possible to go to S/4HANA SFin 1503 SP03 (1511) without Simple Logistics , but it is not clear if this is really the case.

I read through several notes, guides and faqs but what I assume now is that simple logistics (it isn't called that anymore according to some notes) is part of S/4HANA Core and / or Enterprise Management. And with that when you implement Simple Finance you get Simple Logistics with it in version 1511.

But.... I don't know if that is correct.

 

 

So the options I see now for our system is the following:

 

Implement 1503- SP02 (1508) , which stays on netweaver 7.4.
You don't have Slog and you can implement Simple Finance 1503.

On the downside : We don't have the latest version , we don't have the 1511 apps (HANA and Fiori) which the customer wants to have.

 

 

 

Implement 1503 - SP03 (1511) , which needs netweaver 7.5.
You can implement the latest Sfin 1503(1511) version ,BUT you also get Slog ... So you have the latest version and the latest 1511 apps, but you also have Slog which makes the SRM config unworkable.

 

 

Both are not what the customer demands.

 

Can someone point us in the right direction on this matter.

 

(We already asked our national SAP office,but they can't seem to give us a clear answer.... so far as simple goes..)

 

 

thanks!

SAP S/4HANA Finance in SAP S/4HANA

SAP Simple Finance (now SAP S/4HANA Finance) has components like: SAP Accounting powered by SAP HANA, SAP Cash Management powered by SAP HANA, SAP Integrated Business Planning for Finance, SAP Central Finance.

 

With release SAP S/4HANA 1511, it is said that SAP S/4HANA core has areas like logistics and finance.

 

So, all are components of SAP Simple Finance part of SAP S/4HANA? This is a bit confusing as SAP S/4HANA Finance is also presented as a separate LoB solution in addition to SAP S/4HANA.

 

Or it is like that only certain components of SAP Simple Finance have been moved to SAP S/4HANA core and other components are part of separate LoB solution SAP S/4HANA Finance?

Hello!

 

I'm implementing SAP in a group of companies that its local currency is MXN; in the future they will include a company with a different local currency (USD); the group currency would be MXN, so my question is, ¿Is it correct that i customize parallel currencies, 1st local currency in MXN and the 2nd currency with the group currency? i mean, i would have 2 parallel  currencies in the same currency...

 

Thanks!

Configuring CO-PA in S/4FIN

$

I am working with a client, which is service business, and they are implementing S/4HANA as a greenfield implementation. The recommendation in S/4HANA is to use account based CO-PA, rather than costing based CO-PA as all the information can now be available on the universal jnl. I understand the logic behind this, and in terms of reporting, all the analysis available from costing based CO-PA is now available on the GL, and so CO-PA and FI does not need to be reconciled. However I am struggling with how this should actually be configured. One of the main reasons costing based CO-PA was generally preferred was because it applied COS postings at the point of, and in direct relation to billing. Account based CO-PA followed FI rules and the costs were only posted at the point of goods issue or actual posting of the cost, and a subsequent allocation to CO-PA was then performed. In a scenario where labour costs, for example, are incurred to complete a sales order, how would this be shown in account based CO-PA (and in real time), when actual labour costs are posted via payroll to a cost centre, once a month? Allocating to profitability segments would likely be a complex and/ or manual assessment which would, at best, only be run at month end. Can the methods applied in costing based CO-PA, such as valuations, (either through product costing or condition types) now be set up in account based CO-PA? I’m struggling to find any clear guidance on how to set up CO-PA in S/4HANA, that clearly shows how the traditional benefits of costing CO-PA can be achieved through account based CO-PA which is now the recommended approach. Any advice is welcome. thanks

IBPF --- BPF Task --- URL to access ERP data thru External Resource!

$

Dear All,

 

In IBPF, I understand that the master data at the ERP side can be accessed thru' HTTP URL. This can be created as a BPF task at BPC end(as an External Resource task).

 

Normally, we access the ERP data thru SAP GUI, outside BPC.

 

Within IBPF, What is this URL about? Does that mean that, at ERP side, web server component has to be installed? And, access to master data needs to be exposed thru' URL? I believe, authentication/authorization has to be managed at ERP side. Can some one pls. elaborate on the ERP data access

thru' URL part?

 

Thank you,

SFIN 2.0 update to SP1 taking too long

Hello,

 

A few days ago SAP release Sfin 2.0 SP1 and we decided to give it a go.

Generating stack.xml with Mopz for it was all OK and SUM preparations went all fine.

Now in downtime phase on SUM I get to step: RUN_RUTDDLSCREATE ( Creates CDS Views ) and waiting. It`s almost 20 hours like this.

 

Tried to login to SAP - no errors.

DB via Hana Studio - no errors. ( if you go in Studio to Performance > Threads and refresh a few times you can see that it`s creating views and SQL commands are changing ).

 

Anyone experienced same issue? I`m a little bit stuck here and I believe it`s taking too long.

 

Thanks for the help!

Hi,

 

We are in an S4 HANA Implementation Project and was checking the Options available while creating GL accounts. I noticed that the Line item Display field is no longer available. I have already checked in the Field Status variant and the Field Status Groups. Its not available anywhere.

 

It makes me  wonder if the Line item Display field is still available in S4 HANA Finance.
