information
The following list shows the individual
transactions with examples of how they are used:
AG1 - No documentation currently
available.
AG2 - No documentation currently
available.
AG3 - No documentation currently
available.
- Expense/revenue from consumption of
consignment material (AKO)
This transaction is
used in Inventory Management in the case of withdrawals from consignment stock
or when consignment stock is transferred to own stock if the material is
subject to standard price control and the consignment price differs from the
standard price.
- Expenditure/income from transfer
posting (AUM)
This transaction is
used for transfer postings from one material to another if the complete value
of the issuing material cannot be posted to the value of the receiving
material. This applies both to materials with standard price control and to
materials with moving average price control. Price differences can arise for
materials with moving average price if stock levels are negative and the stock
value becomes unrealistic as a result of the posting. Transaction AUM can be
used irrespective of whether the transfer posting involves a transfer between
plants. The expenditure/income is added to the receiving
material.
- Provisions for subsequent
(end-of-period rebate) settlement (BO1)
If you use the
"subsequent settlement" function with regard to conditions (e.g. for
period-end volume-based rebates), provisions for accrued income are set up
when goods receipts are recorded against purchase orders if this is defined
for the condition type.
- Income from subsequent settlement
(BO2)
The rebate income
generated in the course of "subsequent settlement" (end-of-period rebate
settlement) is posted via this transaction.
- Income from subsequent settlement
after actual settlement (BO3)
If a goods receipt
occurs after settlement accounting has been effected for a rebate arrangement,
no further provisions for accrued rebate income can be managed by the
"subsequent settlement" facility. No postings should be made to the account
normally used for such provisions. As an alternative, you can use this
transaction to post provisions for accrued rebate income to a separate account
in cases such as the one described.
- Supplementary entry for stock
(BSD)
This account is
posted when closing entries are made for a cumulation run. This account is a
supplementary account to the stock account; that is, the stock account is
added to it to determine the stock value that was calculated via the
cumulation. In the process, the various valuation areas (for example,
commercial, tax), that are used in the balance sheet are taxed
separately.
Changes in stocks
are posted in Inventory Management at the time goods receipts are recorded or
subsequent adjustments made with regard to subcontract orders.
If the account
assigned here is defined as a cost element, you must specify a preliminary
account assignment for the account in the table of automatic account
assignment specification (Customizing for Controlling) in order to be able to
post goods receipts against subcontract orders. In the standard system, cost
center SC-1 is defined for this purpose.
This transaction is
used for all postings to stock accounts. Such postings are effected, for
example:
- In inventory management in the case of goods
receipts to own stock and goods issues from own stock
- In invoice verification, if price differences
occur in connection with incoming invoices for materials valuated at moving
average price and there is adequate stock coverage
- In order settlement, if the order is assigned
to a material with moving average price and the actual costs at the time of
settlement vary from the actual costs at the time of goods receipt
Because this
transaction is dependent on the valuation class, it is possible to manage
materials with different valuation classes in separate stock accounts.
@1A@Caution
Take care to ensure
that:
- A stock account is not used for any
transaction other than BSX
- Postings are not made to the account
manually
- The account is not changed in the productive
system before all stock has been booked out of it
Otherwise
differences would arise between the total stock value of the material master
records and the balance on the stock account.
- Revaluation of "other" consumptions
(COC)
This
transaction/event key is only relevant to Brazil. It is used if a revaluation
report is used for company codes in Brazil.
The revaluation
report uses the actual prices determined by the material ledger/actual costing
to:
- Revaluate costs on the basis of actual
prices
- Post the price differences arising from
"other" consumptions (e.g. consumption to cost center) to a collective
account
This
transaction/event key is needed to post the price differences. The account
specified here is posted with the price differences for "other"
consumptions.
No documentation currently
available.
- Small differences, Materials
Management (DIF)
This transaction is
used in Invoice Verification if you define a tolerance for minor differences
and the balance of an invoice does not exceed the tolerance.
- Purchase account(EIN), purchase
offsetting account (EKG), freight purchase account (FRE)
These transactions
are used only if
Note
Due to special legal
requirements, this function was developed specially for certain countries
(Belgium, Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, and Finland).
Before you use this
function, check whether you need to use it in your country.
- Freight clearing (FR1), provision for
freight charges (FR2), customs duty clearing (FR3), provision for customs duty
(FR4)
These transactions
are used to post delivery costs (incidental procurement costs) in the case of
goods receipts against purchase orders and incoming invoices. Which
transaction is used for which delivery costs depends on the condition types
defined in the purchase order.
You can also enter
your own transactions for delivery costs in condition types.
The transaction is
used for goods and invoice receipts in connection with subcontract
orders.
If the account
assigned here is defined as a cost element, you must specify a preliminary
account assignment for the account in the table of automatic account
assignment specification (Customizing for Controlling) in order to be able to
post goods receipts against subcontract orders. In the standard system, cost
center SC-1 is defined for this purpose.
- External service, delivery costs
(FRN)
This transaction is
used for delivery costs (incidental costs of procurement) in connection with
subcontract orders.
If the account
assigned here is defined as a cost element, you must specify a preliminary
account assignment for the account in the table of automatic account
assignment specification (Customizing for Controlling) in order to be able to
post goods receipts against subcontract orders. In the standard system, cost
center SC-1 is defined for this purpose.
- Offsetting entry for stock posting
(GBB)
Offsetting entries
for stock postings are used in Inventory Management. They are dependent on the
account grouping to which each movement type is assigned. The following
account groupings are defined in the standard system:
- AUA: for
order settlement
- AUF: for
goods receipts for orders (without account assignment)
and for
order settlement if AUA is not
maintained
- AUI:
Subsequent adjustment of actual price from cost center directly
to
material (with account
assignment)
- BSA: for
initial entry of stock balances
- INV: for
expenditure/income from inventory differences
- VAX: for
goods issues for sales orders without
account
assignment object (the account is not a cost
element)
- VAY: for
goods issues for sales orders with
account
assignment object (account is a cost
element)
- VBO: for
consumption from stock of material provided to vendor
- VBR: for
internal goods issues (for example, for cost center)
- VKA: for
sales order account assignment
(for
example, for individual purchase
order)
- VKP: for
project account assignment (for example, for individual
PO)
- VNG: for
scrapping/destruction
- VQP: for
sample withdrawals without account assignment
- VQY: for
sample withdrawals with account assignment
- ZOB: for
goods receipts without purchase orders (mvt type 501)
- ZOF: for
goods receipts without production orders
(mvt types
521 and 531)
You can also define
your own account groupings. If you intend to post goods issues for cost
centers (mvt type 201) and goods issues for orders (mvt type 261) to separate
consumption accounts, you can assign the account grouping ZZZ to movement type
201 and account grouping YYY to movement type 261.
@1A@Caution
If you use goods
receipts without a purchase order in your system (movement type 501), you have
to check to which accounts the account groupings are assigned
ZOB
If you expect
invoices for the goods receipts, and these invoices can only be posted in
Accounting, you can enter a clearing account (similar to a GR/IR clearing
account though without open item management), which is cleared in Accounting
when you post the vendor invoice.
Note that the goods
movement is valuated with the valuation price of the material if no external
amount has been entered.
As no account
assignment has been entered in the standard system, the assigned account is
not defined as a cost element. If you assign a cost element, you have to enter
an account assignment via the field selection or maintain an automatic account
assignment for the cost element.
- Purchase order with account assignment
(KBS)
You cannot assign
this transaction/event key to an account. It means that the account assignment
is adopted from the purchase order and is used for the purpose of determining
the posting keys for the goods receipt.
- Exchange rate differences in the case
of open items (KDM)
Exchange rate
differences in the case of open items arise when an invoice relating to a
purchase order is posted with a different exchange rate to that of the goods
receipt and the material cannot be debited or credited due to standard price
control or stock undercoverage/shortage.
- Differences due to exchange rate
rounding, Materials Management (KDR)
An exchange rate
rounding difference can arise in the case of an invoice made out in a foreign
currency. If a difference arises when the posting lines are translated into
local currency (as a result of rounding), the system automatically generates a
posting line for this rounding difference.
KDV - No documentation currently
available.
- Consignment liabilities
(KON)
Consignment
liabilities arise in the case of withdrawals from consignment stock or from a
pipeline or when consignment stock is transferred to own stock.
Depending on the
settings for the posting rules for the transaction/event key KON, it is
possible to work with or without account modification. If you work with
account modification, the following modifications are available in the
standard system:
- None for
consignment liabilities
- PIP for
pipeline liabilities
- Offsetting entry for price differences
in cost object hierarchies (KTR)
The contra entry for
price difference postings (transaction PRK) arising through settlement via
material account determination is carried out with transaction
KTR.
LKW - No documentation currently
available.
Price differences
arise for materials valuated at standard price in the case of all movements
and invoices with a value that differs from the standard price. Examples:
goods receipts against purchase orders (if the PO price differs from the
standard pricedardpreis), goods issues in respect of which an external amount
is entered, invoices (if the invoice price differs from the PO price and the
standard price).
Price differences
can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is
not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity. In the case of goods
movements in the negative range, the moving average price is not changed.
Instead, any price differences arising are posted to a price difference
account.
Depending on the
settings for the posting rules for transaction/event key PRD, it is possible
to work with or without account modification. If you use account modification,
the following modifications are available in the standard system:
- None for
goods and invoice receipts against purchase orders
- PRF for
goods receipts against production orders and
order
settlement
- PRA for
goods issues and other movements
- PRU for
transfer postings (price differences in the case
of
external amounts)

- Provision for delivery costs
(RUE)
Provisions are
created for accrued delivery costs if a condition type for provisions is
entered in the purchase order. They must be cleared manually at the time of
invoice verification.
- Taxes in case of transfer posting
GI/GR (TXO)
This
transaction/event key is only relevant to Brazil (nota fiscal).
- Revenue/expense from revaluation
(UMB)
This
transaction/event key is used both in Inventory Management and in Invoice
Verification if the standard price of a material has been changed and a
movement or an invoice is posted to the previous period (at the previous
price).
- Expenditure/income from revaluation
(UMD)
This account is the
offsetting account for the BSD account. It is posted during the closing
entries for the cumulation run of the material ledger and has to be defined
for the same valuation areas.
- Unplanned delivery costs
(UPF)
Unplanned delivery
costs are delivery costs (incidental procurement costs) that were not planned
in a purchase order (e.g. freight, customs duty). In the SAP posting
transaction in Logistics Invoice Verification, instead of distributing these
unplanned delivery costs among all invoice items as hitherto, you have the
option of posting them to a special account. A separate tax code can be used
for this account.
- Input tax, Purchasing
(VST)
Transaction/event
key for tax account determination within the "subsequent settlement" facility
for debit-side settlement types. The key is needed in the settlement schema
for tax conditions.
- Goods issue, revaluation (inflation)
(WGI)
This
transaction/event key is used if already-posted goods issues have to be
revaluated following the determination of a new market price within the
framework of inflation handling.
- Goods receipt, revaluation (inflation)
(WGR)
This
transaction/event key is used if already-effected transfer postings have to be
revaluated following the determination of a new market price within the
framework of inflation handling. This transaction is used for the receiving
plant, whereas transaction WGI (goods receipt, revaluation (inflation)) is
used for the plant at which the goods are issued.
Postings to the
GR/IR clearing account occur in the case of goods and invoice receipts against
purchase orders. For more on the GR/IR clearing account, refer to the SAP
Library (documentation MM Material Valuation).
Caution
You must set the Balances in local currency only indicator for the GR/IR
clearing account to enable the open items to be cleared. For more on this
topic, see the field documentation.
