Business function requiring activation in addition

JVA

You can use this business function to:

  • efficiently check all cost objects within a user-specified set, for items such as goods receipts or invoices which have yet to be cleared. This is particularly useful if, for example, you wish to find items which should be blocked against further posting but are prevented from being so because of open items remaining. Selection fields such as Company Code (range), Cost Center (range), Order (range) allow you to focus the report, reducing runtime and irrelevant results. The report produces a list of all open items within the specified terms. You can then click an individual item for more detailed information.

  • trace the original account during cutback. This new function allows you to monitor original account details during the cutback process, a new document line being created for each original account.

  • set the system to check for billable, uncutback or suspense records remaining against a cost object before a user changes venture information. You may choose to have the system respond by issuing a warning message and allowing the changes, or issuing an error message and denying the changes.

Prerequisites

You must have activated the current Business Function, which automatically activates the customizing switch JVA_EHP_3. You must have activated Joint Venture Accounting (JVA).

Features

  • The open item list for cost objects functionality allows you to identify cost objects that are supposed to be blocked against posting but which still have open items to be cleared. The user can define a set of cost objects against which to run the report using a combination of the following criteria: Company Code is a mandatory field, and may be coupled with Venture, Equity Group and least one of the cost object options Cost Center (range), Order (range), WBS Element (range).

  • It is now possible to shadow the original account during the cutback process carried out in the cutback account.

  • The new masterdata validation function alerts a user attempting to change venture information if open billable, suspense or uncutback records remain by checking whether such open records exist and issuing an appropriate warning or error message.
