Change FM Derivation Reassignment Docs already posted

[Former Member]

Hi! Mar,

Currently, we maintained the relationship between Cost Centre and Fund Centre in the FMDERIVE table. If the Fund Centre of a Cost Centre has been changed, we have to repost all the actuals and commitments, point to the correct Fund Centre.

For Purchase Requisition, Parked Document, PO, there are standard SAP transactions to repost the commitment as you suggested.

However, Do you have any idea on how to repost the document for Travel Commitment ? Thanks in advance for your input.

Hi,

For reconstruction of Travel documents, you can use RPR_CORRECT_COMMITMENT.

Its behaviour is similar as reconstruction tools for Earmarked Funds, PO's and so on..

I hope it helps

Kind regards,

Hi! Mar,

Before I run the RPR_CORRECT_COMMITMENT program, there is a Business Trip Commitment of -300.00 to old_fund_centre.

First of all, I changed the Fund Centre via FMDERIVE.

Then I ran the RPR_CORRECT_COMMITMENT program for selected Personnel No. and Trip No. (selection of trips : Post Explicit Trips Subseq. or Trips with zero reimbursement)

I would expect there is still a Business Trip Commitment of -300.00 to the new_fund_centre instead of the old_fund_centre.

However, it is not the case, in FMIOI table,

- the TC amount and FMAC amount is now 0.00

- the DelIndictr is "X"

- the Fund Centre is corrrect : the new_fund_centre

Have I missed out anything ? Are there any program I can run to reconstruct the Business Trips Commitment - map the commitment to the new fund centre ?

THANKS again for your help.

Hi KL,

indeed, there are not many tools to repost Trip commitments.

You can also do the following:

- Delete commitment data from this trip by using t-code FM_DLOI

- Repost the trip via RPR_CORRECT_COMMITMENT.

As a result of FM_DLOI, you will loose the PBET change history, but you will get the total amounts (original+reductions) in FMIOI. You should get all commitments in the new account assignment and 'nothing' in the old account assignment.

You will also need to reconstruct the assigned values by running FMBV (if you are using former budgeting) or FMAVCREINIT (if you are using BCS).

I hope you achieve a good result!

Regards,

Mar

Hi! Mar,

THANKS a lot for your valuable advice.

After running Transaction FM_DLOI, the commitment data of the trip was deleted.

However, nothing was re-created in FMIOI after running RPR_CORRECT_COMMITMENT. Do you have any idea what went wrong ?

If I resaved and approved the trip again, the commitment was recreated in FMIOI table.

THANKS Again for your help.

Hello KL,

Well...honestly I cannot give you a good explanation...Maybe a program error in RPR_CORRECT_COMMITMENT.

I have found these notes:

1067856 Error in RPR_CORRECT_COMMITMEN with separate systems

925840 Business trip commitments not updated when you approve or de

657569 Business trip commitments not deleted for postings into FM

I am not sure about your release, but they might be useful.

Nevertheless, should you feel the question is answered, you may close this thread.

Hi! Mar,

Would you please help me to close this thread ? It is because I am unable to close it, no option is available for me to mark it as answered.

I would like to reward 100 points for your PROMPT and HELPFUL suggestions. THANKS AGAIN.

Hi KL,

it was me who made the mistake: I created this thread as an split of a previous one and I did not do it in the right way. This is why we cannot close it nor reward any point.

Thus, please leave this thread as it is and do not use it anymore...

Thanks a lot for your positive comments!

Regards, Mar
