Hello friends,
These two modules FI and SD is very much integrated with MM modules. As we are
in MM module, we should know about the integration point.
Here in my blog you can get the knowledge for integration between MM-FI, MM-SD
and SD-FI.
—>When the organization make the raw material to finished material, at that time the
organization needs a subcontractor vendor, who will make the subcontracting process.
Then process from raw material to finished material, it goes to MM module. And the
organization has to pay the subcontracting vendor, this will goes to FI module.
—>When the organization sale the finished material to customer, They have to
proceed the sales process (Like as sales order, delivery, billing etc), its goes to SD
modules. At the time finish goods stock is decreased from warehouse, which is goes to
MM module. We sale the finished material to customer, so customer will pay for this
finish material, the payment terms goes to FI modules.
MM-FI Integration
In this part, we learn about MM-FI integration points. When we do a movement for a
material, if the movement is account effect-able, then it will post a account entry in FI.
Lets discuss about how the accounting entry are posted and how you can do the
configuration.
The valuation class (in accounting 1 view) is most important for automatic account
posting purpose.
We can see the valuation class for individual material from t-code MM03.
Valuation class is used to group together several material with their same attributes, so
that we can carry the same account determination for various material.
Every material has a valuation class, many materials can contain same valuation class.
As we know the valuation class is link with material type via account category
reference.
You can see the blog to understand about material type, account category reference
and valuation class.
The valuation class will be for Raw material, Semi-finished, finished goods. We can
differentiate valuation class as per our business requirement.
Valuation class and Movement type is used for the G/L determination.
Movement type is used for all types of material movement. Suppose if you receive a
material from a vendor, a movement is happens for the movement.
If we transfer a material from one location to another, a movement type is happens for
the movement.
For various movement type SAP defines a G/L account for the material movement.
When we do a goods receipt, the movement type happens is 101. And SAP designed
as per business process the account entry will
You can find the all details of automatic account determination with this
document Automatic Account Determination
For different different movement type, the account entry is done via different
transaction event key.
For example
If any movement type hits the inventory entry then it will hit the BSX transaction
event key..
If any movement type hits the off-settings entry then its hit the GBB transaction event
key.
If any movement type hits the provision entry then its hit the WRX transaction event
key.
If you noticed the transaction key GBB, then you can find the a lots of account
modifier are used for various movement type.
We can’t remember the all account modifier at all, for this purpose SAP
introduce Simulation Mode . Using simulation mode, you can easily identify the
account modifier which is used for GBB.
T-code OMWB
Set up the simulation criteria as per your requirement.
Set up the Application Area, Input Mode, Account Check. Then press simulation
You can see the all G/L account uses with all transaction event key and account
modifier for this particular movement type.
In this way when we post a movement type in MM module, its also update in FI
module.
From MM side its Valuation class and for FI side its G/L account. When we do a
movement type, the movement type finds the valuation class for the material, and post
the amount to this G/L account which is assigned to this particular valuation class.
SD-FI Integration
In this part, we learn about SD and FI integration point.
Whenever we sale a finish material to customer, then the customer have to pay for
that. We send a bill to customer.
In that position all billing document which is happens to sales and distribution module
will be posted into FI module.
The account entry of respect to the billing always have two sides
One side is Customer account and other side will be revenue account.
For example:
AS per SD module, the customer account will be picked from customer master data,
which is maintained from SD module.
We just need to configure the revenue account and if there any discount and
surcharges account.
We have to do that via access sequence, access sequence is just a SAP terminology to
determine the G/L accounts.
These are
1 Cust.Grp/MaterialGrp/AcctKey
The assigned G/L accounts are used to post the discount and revenue and any kind of
surcharges.
To configure this
T-code = VKOA
You can see the below screen and you can also see the default table and description
for above 5 ways.
First system checks the first table entry Cust.Grp/MaterialGrp/AcctKey. If any G/L
maintained here then system will go to the transaction and the particular billing
document, then system search the combination of customer group and material group.
If system will find any G/L, then system will go through the G/L, if system doesn’t
find the G/L, then it will search the next table.
Lets maintain One G/L account for material group and account key combination.
Whenever system search the table and find the combination for transaction, then
system will debit customer account and credit to this account (180033)
Press F4 on the Account Key field, you can see the all account keys.
The account keys are also maintained in calculation schema in Pricing procedure.
