Use

Integration between Sales and Distribution (SD) and Funds Management (PSM-FM) components enables you to assign FM account assignments to the sales order in Sales and Distribution.

This means that revenues that are posted in SD can be assigned to FM account assignments (combination of commitment item, funds center and fund). This way you can also assign the FM account assignments to procurement transactions that are triggered by a sales order, as well as goods issue postings that arise in conjunction with the delivery of materials.

You assign the FM account assignments when processing a sales order. You can enter the FM account assignment elements for each order item. When you are entering an order item, the system first of all tries to derive the FM account assignments from the valid derivation strategy for your client. If you have maintained assignments of FM account assignments to Controlling objects (profit centers, WBS elements) in a derivation step and the order item has been assigned to a profit center or WBS element, these FM account assignment elements appear as default values that can be overwritten.

In the follow-on documents of the sales order (purchase requisition, goods issue, billing document), the FM account assignment elements are not ready for input. The FM account assignment is automatically derived from the sales order.

Prerequisites

The fields for the FM account assignment elements only accept input in SD order line items, if their field status is set as optional or required entry. You make the necessary settings in the Customizing of Funds Management Government by choosing  Actual/Commitments Update / Integration Integration Maintain Field Status for Assigning FM Account Assignments.

To enable the FM account assignment to be derived automatically in the follow-on documents of the sales order, you must transfer derivation step Sales and Distribution Assignment (Table FMZUOB), which is provided by SAP, to your derivation strategy. You define these settings in the Customizing of Funds Management Government by choosing  Master Data Assignments to Account Assignments from Other Components Choose Derivation Rules .

For further information, see the documentation on the IMG activity Choose Derivation Rules .

If you want to derive the funds center and fund from a Controlling object, you must have defined the corresponding step in your derivation strategy, in which the funds center and fund are assigned to Controlling objects.

For more information on this topic, see Deriving FM Account Assignment Elements from CO Account Assignments .

SAP recommends that you derive commitment items from the G/L account or the cost element. You must have also defined an appropriate step in your derivation strategy for this derivation.

For more information on the derivation of commitment items from the G/L account, see Deriving Commitment Items from G/L Account .

Process Flow

When processing a sales order, you assign FM account assignment elements by choosing  Item Account Assignment Funds Management .

If it is possible to derive an FM account assignment element from the derivation strategy when you make a posting, you do not need to enter it manually.

The FM account assignment elements that you must enter depend on the field control. SAP recommends that you set field control in such a way that you must enter the funds center and, if necessary, the fund. In follow-on postings, the commitment item should be derived automatically from either the G/L account or the cost element.

As long as the FM account assignment from the order item is not complete according to this field control, this is displayed in the incompletion log for the sales order.
