one of the integration point between BI/IN and FICA is you define mains and sub transactions and assign them in the rates for account determinations.

thanks,

Hi Susmitha,

In your Rate configuration there are Sub transactions that are used. You are able to add new Sub Transactions in the FICA configuration ''Maintain Sub Transactions''.

The SAP-delivered Main transaction for consumption Billing is Main 0100, for Final Billing it Main 0200. For the rarely used Manual Billing it is 0300.

In the Rate Steps, you can use either existing SAP-delivered Sub Transactions and/or new Sub transactions that you might have created.

In order to allocate Revenue GL Accounts and Tax Codes to each Main/Sub transaction combination, you have to maintain the following:

in configuration transaction EK01: Maintain the Receivable (Reconciliation account) for the Billing Main transactions (0100, 0200 and 0300).

In config transaction EK02, you have maintain the Revenue (or Expense) accounts for each Main/Sub transaction combination. If you have different GL Accounts per Account Determination ID, you can assign these here as well (the GL Account and Tax code configuration can be done at the following level:

Division (this is mandatory for Billing transactions)

Account Determination ID (this resides on the Contract Account, and can also at the Contract level (note: If necessary, the Contract can have a different Account Determination ID from the Contract Account).

Main Transaction/Sub transaction

The allocation will be: GL Account, Tax Code, CO Account Assignment (which in turn can map the Profit Centers and /or Cost centers).

During Invoicing, the configurations in EK01 and EK02 are read in order to determine the GL Accounts and Tax Codes to be posted to.

I hope this helps.

Adding to what Martin mentioned...

FICA ,Billing intergartion originates at Rate level while the billing engine i.e schema is executed.

- Account determination happens at billing which is telling the system to which GL account the revenue has to be posted, this is the combination Company code, division, Account detemination ID,main transaction,subtransaction.

FICA ,Billing,DM intergartion - Rate determination

Rate determination is combination of Rate category (comming from the installation) and Rate type ( comming from the Device/Register )
