Automatic Account Determination for without material master.

Recently I have configured how the default G/L is fetching on PO, when we are not using any material master for PO line item.

As we know when we use material master, It brings the G/Ls from valuation class (in material master) from OBYC (from table T030).

As per accounting entry for standard PO, we need to maintain G/Ls for two transaction keys against valuation class, these are BSX and WRX.

But If we use account assignment category K – Cost center(or even any), then we need to maintain G/L account for transaction key WRX and maintain manualy a G/L account to the PO line item.

Here I am introducing, G/L can be fetched from material group, so that we don’t have to maintain G/L account in PO line item.

Configurations

Step 1: Create Material Group

Create the material group from OMSF (If material group is not maintained in system). Else continue with existing.

Capture.JPG

I have created a material group as TEST, which will be used in PO. Save your entry.

Step 2: Create Valuation Class

Go to t-code OMSK, and click on Valuation Class. Else continue with existing.

Capture.JPG

Click on “New Entries”, fill the value of valuation class and description. No need to maintain Account Category Reference. Save your entry.

I have maintain valuation class 8004 and description Testing Purpose.

Step 3: Assign valuation Class to Material Group

Please go through the path SPRO-IMG-Materials Management-Purchasing-Material Master-Entry Aids for Items Without a Material Master.

Capture.JPG

Here, maintain the new valuation class against the material group.

As I’ve maintained 8004 for material group TEST.

Step 4:Assign General Modification to Account Assignment

You have to maintain the general modification (account modification) to account assignment category, which you will use at the time of PO creation.

Go to SPRO-IMG-Materials Management-Purchasing-Account Assignment-Maintain Account Assignment Categories/OME9

Capture.JPG

Here, maintain the general modification for account assignment K (const center)

Step 5: Maintain G/L against Valuation Class

Now we have to maintain G/L account for this valuation class on transaction key GBB along with General Modification VBR

And maintain WRX for GR/IR clearing account. For WRX we don’t have to use Valuation Class, Just assign the G/L for blank valuation class.

Use T-code OBYC

Capture.JPG

Here maintain the G/L which will be expenses account for PO (as instead of Inventory Stock Account)

Maintain As per screen shot above.

I have maintain G/L account 270001 against valuation class 8004.

Capture.JPG

Maintain the G/L like above figure. As I maintain 150050.

Now Lets Create PO without material master.

T-code ME21N,

Capture.JPG

Give the all details on Header level.

In item level give the account assignment key “K” Short text (as per your requirement), Just give the Material group.

Whenever you put the material group and press enter you can see the G/L account which you have maintained in OBYC for this.

Save your PO.

Then do Goods Receive.

The accounting entry will be as below figure.

Capture.JPG

You can see the account 270001 has been debited and account 150050 has been credited.

270001 = Expenses Account ( As Stock Inventory Account)

150050 = GR/IR Clearing Account.

Here, system will bring that G/L account for transaction event key WRX, which has maintained with blank valuation class. It will take the only one G/L account with irrespectively valuation classes. You can only change the Expenses (270001) account with regards to the valuation class. There are no standard option to bring the G/L account for WRX transaction key from T030 table with regards to the valuation class. If you want to do that, then you can do that with the help of some enhancement. You can have a look into the blog post Determination of different GR/IR accounts for non-inventory procurement.

Its a supply chain as automatic account determination, whenever we create PO without material master

Material Group assign with valuation class. Valuation class assign with G/L account.

Assigned Tags

Capture.JPG

   You didnt mention how the VBR modifier came against GBB. Actually it is depending on the account assignment category. Here, you used acc assignment K. Go to OME9 transaction and go to details of the account assignment category K and check the account modifier assigned. It will be VBR. It will be good if you mention the same in your document.

    Nice document. Keep it up.

Normally we have this scenario for service PO - just fyi .Thanks for sharing

Yeah, We can use it for service PO.

Whenever we use account assignment K and material group, then we can default the G/L.

Lovely blog and I like the way you have presented.

Keep up the good work!

Hari Suseelan

Really a good document posted by you Dev.

Many thanks

We can add PVK also here for the scenario of over/under delivery tolerance when we are not using Material Master and having tolerance limit while doing MIGO.

You can do it via Info record.

Create an info record. with vendor and material group.

Maintain the PVK details in info record.

Then while creating PO you have to call up the info record manually. Then all PVK details will come to PO.

Thanks for the sharing this is very beneficial documents.

You are always very helpful.

Document is mind-blowing and Thanks for your Doc

Thanks for this document, I would like to raise one questions:

- In the case I use the valuation class assigned to my Material Group for WRX to determine an G/L account in MIGO, system will use the "blank" line in WRX instead, why?

- Imagine a case where a customer wants two different GR/IR G/L accounts for two different Non inventory Material Group ? How should we proceed ?

Best regards,

It is certainly not possible in standard.. You may can follow the blog written by Alexandre N. Determination of different GR/IR accounts for non-inventory procurement

Hi Dibyendu Patra ,

While trying to map this account determination in sandbox.. i found out that none of the above setting exist for material group but at GRN account is determined ?? How??

Correct me if I am wrong...

I believe irrespective of valuation class whatever G/L account you pass in PO that will get determine at GRN but in OBYC an entry with that G/L A/c and VBR modifier must be exist. Ex can be like below

0001 VBR 3000 400000

So if 400000 G/L passed in PO the above entry will get determine irrespective of valuation class.

In case of using an specific G/L account above setting will do best.

Hi I did same settings in my system, still it is not picking...plz help me on this issue...

What is Account Assignment Category in SAP MM, How to configure?

What is Account Assignment Category in SAP MM, How to configure?

This Blog Post will give the overview on what is Account Assignment Category in SAP MM and How to configure it within SAP system. I will explain configuration step by step in SAP configuration.

This article will guide you through step by step procedure and will give you the complete idea on usage of Account Assignment Category and Item Category.

Account Assignment Category:

It indicates what type of purchase the company is doing in Purchasing Documents, whether it is for consumption or anything relation to orders, projects etc. The nature of this also indicates which accounts it needs to be charged for when the incoming invoice and Goods Receipt are posted.

Path spro – Material Management – Purchasing – Account Assignment – Maintain Account Assignment Categories

Depending on the requirements you can create customized ones as well. Select one line item and click on the icon (with the magnifying class). Or if you want to create one Hit the “New Entries” icon.

Certain configuration needs to be maintained for a particular account assignment category and the screen selection. Below image shows the configuration and screen selection..

The above screen will pop-up to maintain the configs. For now, lets consider K- Cost Center

So, for “K” only GL Account, Cost Center needs to be mandatory i.e. user need to specify the respective value for this and for rest can be maintained as optional/hidden/display.

In the detailed Information tab, we can see certain options

assg.changeable (Account Assignment Changeable) – It indicates whether the specified Account Assignment category can be changed in Goods Receipt/Invoice Receipt or not. Consumption Posting – It specifies whether the goods that are procured are used for which purpose like for personal usage or for a project. Some options include Consumption, Asset, Unknown, Accounting via Project/ Sales Order Distribution – It is used whether we can distribute the ordered qty on Percentage basis, Amount or Quantity basis.

For example , let say you need to buy 300 chairs for IT dept but HR dept also needs 200 chairs. So, you will create a purchase order for 500 chairs with Account Assignment Category ‘K’. If distribution is configured than you can split the qty in 300 – 200 and assign them to their respective GL Account/ Cost Center in Purchase Order. Since each department would be having it’s own Cost Center.

Account Modification – IT indicates what GL account it will be posted through the Account Determination acct.assgt (Derive Account Assignment) – If this is configured for an account assignment category, then the GL account and Cost Center will be pulled automatically by the system. (Pre-requisite: In Acct Modification whatever value is maintained for that a corresponding GL account should be defined in Tcode OBYC) This can be used for both materials having MMR or without MMR. ID: AcctAssgt Scrn (Account Assignment Screen) – Defines whether it is a single or multiple account assignment.

After this we have certain checkboxes like Goods Receipt/ Invoice Receipt – Defines whether Goods Receipt will be relevant or not for the items created with this account assignment category.

After completing all the steps you can create the Purchase Orders using an Account Assignment Category.

So here we complete the configuration about the Account Assignment Categories.

Let’s move to what combination of Account Assignment and Item Category is allowed in Purchasing document.

Path Spro – Material Management – Purchasing – Account Assignment – Define Combination of Item Categories/Account Assignment Categories

It is a mapping between the Item Categories and Account Assignment that indicates what are the relevant and correct combination that can be used in purchasing document.

Okay, now you might be wondering what are item category?

Item categories are defined to provide additional control functions for the documents to meet the demands resulting from different business transactions.

Basically it has the same functions as of Account Assignment but with a different set of usage.

There are different Item categories configured in system. You can define/create them here

Path spro – Material Management – Purchasing – Define External Representation for Item Categories

The above are some standard Item category defined by SAP, but always open to create a custom one as per the requirements.

Here I complete the detailed explanation of Account Assignment,  Item Category & it’s configuration in SAP MM.

Please do provide your valuable feedback on this post in comments section, this will help me in improving my content and share more knowledge with this community, also you can follow me for more content related to SAP!

Till then Happy learning!
