DBM - Split tab in Order engine

[Former Member]

Hi All

I have created a split for the order. In split type, 2001(warranty order) is used as order type.

I want to maintain AAC (account assignment category) but this filed is blanked out..

Can anyone suggest anything is missing in the customizing...

Dear Ashutosh,

If you want that AAC to be filled out, you should have maintained values in this node:

SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> DBM -> Order -> Account Assignment -> Internal Order Account Assignment -> Define Account Assignment Categories for Internal Order

and maintain entries in the node below that is: Assign Account Assignment Object for Internal Order

I hope this helps.

Hi Harsha

Thanks for the reply...

The settings mentioned by you are maintained.

When i m selecting order type 4000 - internal service value increase, the AAC filed is populated but when i m selecting

2001-service warranty order type , the AAC field is grayed out (in Split tab).

This should not happen...this is my concern......

HI Ashutosh,

Can you give me the rationale as why you would like to give an Account assignment category for Warranty order type?

AAC's are used for internal orders types(order type 4000, 4001, 4100, etc) not for standard orders as 2000, 2001, etc

If you can give me the reason why you are looking for having AAC, I can try to help you with the info.

Hi Harsha

I agree with you that for internal order type we use the AAC.

For eg. Warranty (2001) split is between Vendor (80%), Dealer (15%) and customer (5%).

In this case dealer has to bear 15% of the cost himself which should be passed on to his own cost centre.

Thats the thinking.

HI Ashutosh,

Even in this case, you do not need to split that 15% as 2001 split, you can select 4000 and pass on to Dealer.

Thats the best practice.

If you still want to change the process, here is the way out..

SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> DBM -> Order -> Account Assignment -> Internal Order Account Assignment -> Assign Account Assignment Object for Internal Order

Go to that node above and add values related to 2001 and its combinations of AAC's then, you should be able to add an ACC for 2001.

I would still suggest you to split it to 4000 if Dealer is taking a portion of it as that makes complete sense to split it to the internal cost center using 4000 than adding a new ACC to 2001.

Thanks Harsha..

I also think it is better to use 4000 and pass it to this cost centre.

thanks for your help...
