Reconciliation Account determination in SD/FICA interface

[shah_viraj]

Hi...

While posting some charges other than security deposit from SD to FICA, every time it picks up a single reconciliation account for all the contract accounts irrespective of account determination id attached to that contract account. As I know, it picks up reconciliation account from OV64. Here we have maintained Condition type, Chart of acc, Sales org, Dist Chanl. On these basis it is picking up reconciliation account. Due to this, it picks up single GL account for all domestic, industrial, commercial consumers(We have separate account determination id at contract account level for each domestic, commercial, industrial).

How can I config to pick up different reconciliation accounts, for different account determination id ?

Thanks

Viraj.

Viraj:

The account determination is done totally via SD.  The account determination id from FICA is not relevant for the process there.  If you maintain the price group or the customer group in the SD sales area data, you might get the result you are looking for.  Otherwise, using the ADID would require some custom logic within the SD VOFM routines.

Hi Viraj,

The main/sub transactions related to SD are determined from posting area 1200, based on billing type, Item category, Account assignment gp and Account key.

In addtion to Bill's suggesstion, you can use substitution rule as well, to point the transaction to a separate reconciliation GL A/c based on certain conditions.

Morover, if you want to have AD ID as an addtional parameter, then you have to  enhance event 4030.

The function module is called in the event for transferring the billing document

to Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable.

Hope it helps...

Thanks,

Amlan

Be careful with substitution - it is not generally supported with FICA since it creates an inconsistency between FICA and FIGL which results in challenges with the standard FICA-FIGL reconciliation programs.
