FI document summarization is active / the results may be incorrect in MB5B

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am using transaction MB5B .Input fields are Material ,Plant, Stock posting date.I am inputting Stock Type as VALUATED STOCK.

I am getting the warning message:

FI document summarization is active / the results may be incorrect In this system, document summarization is activated for accounting documents. On the initial screen, you set the indicator Valuated Stock.

This can mean that report MB5B for valuated stock results in incorrect values for the start or end date. During document summarization, the system does not generate all entries in the index table BSIM between the material numbers and the accounting document items. However, these entries are required by report MB5B in order to display a complete list. This means that report MB5B cannot process all relevant accounting document items for the material.

Procedure

You should only set the Valuated Stock indicator if document summarization is deactivated for accounting documents.

Can you please explain the meaning of FI Document Summarization?

I have tried the following option:

IMG>Financial Accounting>General Ledger Accounting>Perodic Processing>Integration>Material Management>Perform Document Summarization for Materials Management>Ref Transaction -MKPF

Table is BSEG and Field is MATNR (Material): This table and field is there in ref.transaction MKPF.

Also, I have tried running MB5B report after removing BSEG-MATNR and still I am getting the same issue.

Is it really a FI issue or this is something needs to be done from FI side.

Thanks

Dear,

FI Document summarization would take place, all documents pertaining to MM and SD integrated with FI (I.e. Accounting document generated at time of GR, MIRO etc..) would be summarized based on GL, Profit Center and tax rate level. It is maily done to decrease the line items thus avaoiding storage space issues.

In summarization, you define the fields you do not explicitly want to see in FI documents for postings to be made via the accounting interface.

You define document summarizations depending on object type, for example, for invoicing, orders or invoices received. You cannot take all fields for summarization, but rather only those for which account assignments are made.

Now ur error might have come coz, earlier u might have been getting material at line item level, but not after doc summerization

Pls check if you have activiated document summarization. The path for the same is :

IMG>Financial Accounting>General Ledger Accounting>Perodic Processing>Integration>Material Management>Perform Document Summarization for Materials Management>Ref Transaction -MKPF

Dear Hussain,

This doesn't answer my question. What exactly I need to do to solve this message. I have read this answer before somewhere on SDN, but this doesn't tell me what I need to do.

Please tell me what I need to do exactly.

Thanks,

I want the opposite: to add fields like the account key or condition type to separate the lines in the financial document. How do I do that?
