SAP Note 96367 - MM-SRV: Hint G/L account determination inservice

 Note Language: English Version: 3 Validity: Valid Since 11.02.2000

Summary

Symptom This note describes the mode of operation of the account determination in

purchasing documents with service items. Since the most complex case occurs

in the service entry sheet, the explanation is based on this document. The

mode of operation in other documents is similar. Determine the G/L account

according to the priorities listed as follows.

1. 1st Priority:

If you enter planned services in the service entry sheet from an

assigned purchase order (account assignment category not equal 'U'),

the system copies the account assignment and, in particular, the G/L

account for each service line from the purchase order.

2. 2nd Priority:

If you enter unplanned services with reference to an assigned

contract, that was stored in the limits of the purchase order, the

account assignment is copied from the contract as of Release 3.1H. You

can execute this mode of operation by implementing Note 74147.

3. 3rd Priority:

If you enter planned services in the service entry sheet from a

purchase order item with account assignment category 'U', the systemprocesses the rules stored in Customizing for the automatic account

determination for the G/L account determination. The valuation class

stored in the service master is taken into account here. The G/L

account determined is copied into the account assignment data of the

service line.

The same procedure applies, if unplanned services are entered. The G/L

account determined via the automatic G/L account determination has

always a higher priority than the G/L account that may be stored in

the limit of the purchase order item, because at the date of the

service entry, actual services and, correspondingly, the information

on the valuation class which must be considered for the G/L account

assignment are available.

4. 4th Priority:

If you use the automatic repeat account assignment function, this

effects the G/L account only if no G/L account could be determined

according to the rules described above.

5. 5th Priority:

If no G/L account could be determined according to priority 1 to 4 in

the system and unplanned services are entered, the G/L account

maintained in the limits is copied in the service line in case of anassigned purchase order item.
