This chapter covers the functions related to the global assignment of orga-
nizational entities in Financial Accounting, with major emphasis on com-
pany codes and controlling areas.
Organizational Structure2 :
Denition and Assignment
In this chapter, we discuss the denition and assignment of the organizational enti-
ties relevant to Financial Accounting. The rst section focuses on how to dene
these entities, and the second section focuses on how to assign them.
Definition of Organizational Entities Relevant to 2.1
Financial Accounting
In this section, we explain how to dene the following organizational entities rel-
evant for Financial Accounting:
Company
Company code
Credit control area
Business area
Consolidation business area
Functional area
Controlling area
Operating concern
Note
For information about segments, please refer to Section 3.6.7; for information about
prot centers, refer to Section 3.6.8.

A company (also known as an internal trading partner ) is an organizational unit
used for consolidation purposes. In general, you don’t post directly to a company;
instead, you assign a company code to a company and then post to that company
code. By assigning a company to a company code , the company inherits the post-
ings of the other company codes assigned to that company. In addition to being
assigned to a company code, a company can also be assigned to customers and
vendors, which helps you keep track of the transactions against your business
partners. (Company codes will be discussed in more detail in Section 2.1.2, Com-
pany Code.)
Company Data RecordFigure 2.1
You can create or change companies using Transaction OX15 (Figure 2.1). To cre-
ate a new company, select the New Entries button, and then specify the name,
address, language, and currency. (In general, the naming convention of the compa-
nies is de ned by the parent company , the holding company of your group; if you

don’t know it, check with your accounting department.) Then save. No additional
activity is required in this step.
Companies in a Global Special Ledger
If you use companies in a global special ledger, you have to assign the company to the
ledger. (We discuss this in more detail in Chapter 8, Special Purpose Ledger.)
If the company is used in non-standard tables (i.e., tables that start with a Z or a
Y), you may need to update them when you create a new company. You can search
for non-standard tables that use the company by following these steps:
Run Transaction SE111. .
Select the Data Type option, and specify the RASSC value. Then select 2. Utilities
Where-Used List.
Select the Table Fields option, and click on the Search Area button.3.
In the Object Name eld, specify the values Y* and Z*. Conrm the selection, 4.
and click the Continue button (
). The system then displays a list of the non-
standard tables that use the company.
Searching the Usage of Company in Tables
In some tables, it’s possible to use a data type different from RASSC. To see all similar
data types, specify the RASSC data type, and then click on the Display button. In the
following screen, the domain to which the data type belongs is displayed; double-click
on the domain (for RASSC, it’s RCOMP). From Utilities
Where-Used List, select Data
Elements. The system displays all of the similar data elements.
The company is also used to keep track of transactions that are performed against
a subject that belongs to the same consolidation group. For this purpose, you
can manually specify a company in the Financial Accounting document. Alterna-
tively, you can specify the company in the following types of master data (if you
do this, the documents that use these master data will automatically contain this
information):
Assets (Table ANLA)
General ledger account (Table SKA1)
Customer (Table KNA1)
Vendor (Table LFA1)

Transactions: OX02 (edit company code), EC01 (copy, delete, check company code)
Table/view: T001/V_T001
You can create a company code in two ways:
Copy an existing company code and then change the necessary settings (e.g.,
the company code description, the currency, etc.). The system automatically
performs most of the necessary customizing settings, copying them from the
reference company code.
Create a company code from scratch; in this case, you need to perform all of the
company code customizing settings step by step.
When you run Transaction EC01, the system presents two alternatives (Figure
2.2):
Copy, Delete, Check Company Code
Due to the large number of customizing steps needed to congure a company
code from scratch, we highly recommend using this method. To copy an exist-
ing company code to the new one, select the Copy Org. Object button (
)
and specify the reference company code (From Company Code) and the com-
pany code to be created (To Company Code). Conrm. The system asks you two
questions:
Do you want to copy the general ledger accounts from the reference com-
pany code? You should always answer “No” if the new company code must
have a different chart of accounts. However, you can always copy the accounts
from a reference company using Transaction FS15. In general, we recom-
mend not copying the general ledger accounts.
Do you want to create the new company code with a different currency? If
yes, specify the new currency.
After the copy is done, review the company code customizing with the transac-
tions listed in Table 2.1. All of the relevant settings are described in detail in
subsequent chapters.

Deleting and Renaming Company Codes
In the screen where you copy the company code, you can also perform two additional
activities:
Delete the company code: If you incorrectly created a company code, and you’ve
never used it in a production system, you can use the Delete button ( ) to erase all
of the customizing settings that refer to the specied company code.
Rename the company code: If you created a company code with an incorrect ID, and
you’ve never used it in a production system, you can use the Rename button ( ) so
that all customizing settings that refer to the specied company code are transferred
to a company code with a new ID. (The old company code will no longer exist in the
system.)
Edit Company Code
Data
Use this transaction to start the creation of a company code with the step-by-
step technique. Specify company code ID, name, and address. Then perform all
of the needed customizing settings; you can use Table 2.1 as a checklist. Note
that many of the listed transactions may not be needed in your SAP
implementation.

If you need to add the company code to non-standard tables and you want to know
which tables must be updated, follow the procedure described in Section 2.1.1, Com-
pany Code, using the data type BUKRS.
Table 2.1 can be used as a checklist for creating a company code from scratch. Note
that only the customizing that involves company-code-specic entries is included.
If the new company code belongs to a country for which no specic conguration
is already available in the system, you must perform additional steps (e.g., the
denition of VAT codes in the new country).

or comprise more than one company code. (See Section 2.2.2, Company Code
to Credit Control Area, for more information about the relationship between the
credit control area and the company code.)
Use Transaction OB45 to create a new credit control area or to check the settings
of existing ones (Figure 2.3). Specify the credit control area code (four digits) and
the description.
The following additional customizing settings are available for each credit control
area:

update the credit exposure of the customer, which is compared to the credit
limit when a new transaction is carried out. The credit exposure is recorded in
the customer credit master (Transaction FD32) and is broken down into the fol-
lowing four values:

When a sales order is delivered, the sales order exposure is reduced, and the
exposure for the deliveries is increased. The same happens for the other steps
in the sales chain. The Update eld species whether the credit exposure is
updated when you receive an order from a customer, or when the goods are
delivered. Four options are available:

The business area is an organizational unit that you can use freely for internal or
external reporting to depict segmentation of you business within or across com-
pany codes. The business area is available in general ledger reporting (in both the
classic General Ledger and the new SAP General Ledger), and can be set up in the
special ledger tables.
You create a business area using Transaction OX03 (Figure 2.4). Specify the busi-
ness area code (four digits) and the description, and save your entries.
Business AreasFigure 2.4
If you use the consolidation business areas , you assign the business area to the con-
solidation business area; see Section 2.2.3, Business Area to Consolidation Busi-
ness Area, for more details about this.
The business area can be assigned to the following nancial and controlling
objects:
Asset classes (Table ANKA)
Fixed assets (Table ANLP)
Cost centers (Table CSKS)
Internal orders (Table AUFK)
Investment program positions (Table IMPR)
Project de nitions (Table PROJ)
WBS elements (Table PRPS)
If you need to add the business area to non-standard-tables, and you want to know
which tables must be updated, follow the procedure described in Section 2.1.1,
Company, using the data type GSBER .

With the functional area, you can keep track of the macro-departments where costs
and revenues arise, for example:
Administration
Production
Procurement
Sales
Human Resources
This type of accounting (i.e., accounting by department) is called cost-of-sales
accounting .
You create functional areas using Transaction FM_FUNCTION (OKBD in older
releases). For each of them, specify the functional area ID (16-digit maximum)
and the functional area description (Figure 2.6).

Functional area transaction data are updated in real time in the ledger 0F (Total
Table GLFUNCT , and Line Item Table GLFUNCA). The functional area can also be
used in your general ledgers and special ledgers.
You can assign the functional area in the master data of the following objects:

It’s also possible to use substitutions for the functional data update:
Transaction OBZM for functional area substitutions
Transaction OBBZ for assigning the substitutions to company codes
Note on Functional Area Activation
To use the functional data in the master data specied previously and to have the trans-
action data updated by functional area, you need to activate the cost of sales accounting
in customizing. Go to Financial Accounting

FAQ and Troubleshooting Tips2.1.9
Next we answer some frequently asked questions and offer helpful troubleshoot-
ing tips.
FAQ
Question:1. Are the company and the trading partner the same object in SAP?
Answer: Yes. The terms “company, “trading partner, and “internal trading
partner” are synonymous and all refer to the same organizational unit in SAP.
Question:2. What is the difference between the company and the global com-
pany code?
Answer: The company is used in your system to keep track of the company
code transactions and intercompany transactions from a consolidation point of
view; the global company code is needed to exchange information between
SAP systems with ALE (Application Linking and Embedding) interfaces.
Question: 3. When I copy one company code into another, what happens to the
number ranges?
Answer: The number ranges are copied from one company code to the other
but not recorded into the transport request. For internal number ranges, the
last number used is also copied.
Question:4. I’ve changed the update mode in the credit control area and trans-
ported to production. What should I do to have the new settings applied to all
of the existing customers?
Answer: If the update mode is changed, the system has to re-read all of the rel-
evant SD and Financial Accounting documents to get the credit exposure
updated. Run Transaction F.28 for the reconstruction of the credit limit.
Question: 5. I haven’t specied any default data for new customers (Risk Catego-
ry, Credit Limit, and Rep. Group left blank). I expected that the new customers
would be set up with a credit limit of zero; instead, there is no data in FD32,
and the credit control doesn’t work at all for the customer. What’s wrong?
Answer: If you don’t specify any default value in the credit control area set-
tings, the new customers are automatically set up as irrelevant to credit control-
ling (in technical terms, the record in Table KNKK, where the credit control
information is stored, isn’t created). To make the customer relevant for credit
controlling, you must manually process the customer using Transaction FD32.
If you want to ensure that new customers are automatically set up for credit
313_Book.indb 62 4/7/10 11:22:38 AM
63
Denition of Organizational Entities Relevant to Financial Accounting
2.1
controlling, make sure at least one entry in the Default Data for Automatically
Creating New Customers area (refer to Figure 2.3) is supplied. This guarantees
that the customer is automatically created in Table KNKK.
Question: 6. If I put a default value for Risk Category and/or Rep. Group, but I
don’t specify any default credit limit, will the new customers automatically
have a credit limit of zero?
Answer: Yes, exactly.
Question: 7. What is the relationship between the business area and the com-
pany code? Can I specify the possible business areas for each company code?
Answer: There is no hierarchical relationship between the company code and
the business area; as such, there is no standard customizing activity to assign
a business area to a company code, or to assign a company code to a business
area. If you want to limit the possible business areas in one company code,
you can create a validation. If the control requires a complete mapping
between several business areas and company codes, it may be worth creating
a non-standard table. In this case, you must use a user exit in the validation to
use the table for control purposes.
Question: 8. Can I still use the business area in SAP General Ledger?
Answer: Yes, the business area can be used as a dimension in SAP General
Ledger. If you look at the standard total table for SAP General Ledger, FAGL-
FLEXT, the eld RBUSA (Business Area) is included, so you don’t need to
enhance the SAP General Ledger tables using Transaction FAGL_GINS. How-
ever, if you are planning to upgrade from the classic General Ledger to SAP
General Ledger, you should consider using prot centers and segments
instead, as SAP is focusing its development on these two dimensions for seg-
ment reporting.
Question: 9. Is table group GLFUNC* still available if I use SAP General
Ledger?
Answer: Yes, it can be used as a dimension in SAP General Ledger. If you look
at the standard total table for SAP General Ledger, FAGLFLEXT, the eld
RFAREA (Functional Area) is included, so you don’t need to enhance the SAP
General Ledger tables using Transaction FAGL_GINS.
Question: 10. If I change the assignment of an object to a functional area, does it
affect the old postings or only the newly created postings?
Answer: In general ledger accounting tables and in the GLFUNC* tables, the
system updates the records with the functional area available at the time of
313_Book.indb 63 4/7/10 11:22:38 AM
64
Organizational Structure: Denition and Assignment
2
the postings. The reporting that reads these tables reads the historical assign-
ment to the functional area, not the assignment at the time the report is run.
Question:11. In my SAP implementation, SAP General Ledger isn’t active. I’m
trying to run Program RFBILA00, but I can’t get the functional area in the
output.
Answer: The functional area isn’t updated in Table GLT0, where the transac-
tion data is read from Program RFBILA00. The function isn’t supported.
Question:12. What does the generation of the COPA environment mean?
Answer: The COPA tables are specic to each operating concern; in other
words, the COPA table names include the name of each operating concern.
Therefore, the COPA tables are created by you, online, after you have com-
pleted the COPA customizing. The COPA environment generation is the cre-
ation of the COPA operating-concern-specic tables.
Question:13. Why is it possible to create the operating concern with Transaction
KEP8 with minimal settings (operating concern code and ID)? Wouldn’t it be
better to create an operating concern using Transaction KEA0, where a com-
plete COPA setup is possible?
Answer: The system allows the creation of an operating concern with mini-
mal settings so that the user can build up the enterprise structure, including
the assignment of controlling areas to operating concerns, in an early stage of
the SAP implementation project. At this point, it’s likely that high-level deci-
sions on the structure of the controlling have been made, but all of the details
about the building of the COPA module (characteristics, key gures, etc.)
aren’t yet dened.
Troubleshooting Tips
Issue:1. The extended withholding tax customizing isn’t copied.
Solution: Create the customizing manually. Maintain views (Transaction SM30)
V_T001WT and V_T001_EXT with the company-code-relevant data.
Issue:2. I receive error message TK455, “Enter numeric values only,” when copy-
ing the company code.
Solution: The error and the relevant solution is described in SAP Note
494490.

Issue:3. I receive message FC125, “Certain data was not copied,when copying
the company code.
Solution: This is just an information message. The following assignments aren’t
copied from the source to the destination company code:
Assignment of company code to company. Perform this assignment using
Transaction OX16
Assignment of company code to FM area. Perform this assignment using
Transaction OF18.
Assignment of company code to cross-system company code (or global com-
pany code). Perform this assignment using Transaction OBY6.
Assignment of company code to controlling area. Perform this assignment
using Transaction OX19.
Issue: 4. I receive error message FC158 when copying the company code.
Solution: If the source company code is assigned to prot center ledger 8A, the
destination company code inherits the same assignment even though the
assignment to the controlling area isn’t copied. You can’t use prot center
accounting in a company code without assigning the company code to a con-
trolling area; to avoid this error message, make sure this is done.

The SAP Credit Management module allows you to keep track of the credit expo-
sure of customers and also to set credit limits. You can also issue warnings or error
messages if the credit exposures overrun a certain percentage of the credit limit.
The credit management isn’t performed at the company code level but at the credit
control area level, and you must assign each company code to a credit control area.
The same credit control area can have one or many company codes assigned to it.
Each time a transaction relevant for the credit control is performed in the company
code, the credit exposure in the connected credit control area is updated, and the
credit limit set in the connected credit control area is checked.
You assign the company code to the credit control area in customizing using Trans-
action OB38. The system presents all of the company codes, and you specify the
connected credit control area in the relevant column (Figure 2.10). In addition,
you can specify whether it’s possible to use a different credit control area in the
document itself by selecting the Overwrite CC Area ag in the last column of the

Note that the consolidation business area has a very limited use in the SAP envi-
ronment; as such, you should make an in-depth investigation before deciding to
use this organizational unit in your SAP implementation. For example, unlike the
business area, the consolidation business area isn’t updated in the general ledger
total tables GLT0 and FLAGFLEXT, so it’s not available in most of the standard

You can assign several controlling areas to one operating concern using Transac-
tion KEKK (Figure 2.12). The system displays all of the controlling areas available
in the system and allows you to assign them to the operating concern in the OpCo
column. That’s all you need to do under the Enterprise Structure de nition.
In assigning a controlling area to an operating concern, you also indirectly assign
the company code to the operating concern. Refer to a Controlling manual to fully
understand the consequence of this assignment; a more thorough discussion is
beyond the scope of this book.

Assignment of Personnel Area to Company Codes
Table/view: T500P/V_T500P
The personnel area is an organizational unit used in SAP Human Resources Man-
agement (SAP HRM). Each personnel area must be assigned to exactly one com-
pany code. Because the assignment requires an in-depth knowledge of SAP HRM,
we strongly recommend that this customizing activity is performed by, or in coor-
dination with, an SAP HRM consultant. A more thorough description of this pro-
cess is beyond the scope of this book.
FAQ and Troubleshooting Tips2.2.9
Next we answer some frequently asked questions and offer helpful troubleshoot-
ing tips.
FAQ
Question:1. What happens if I change the assignment of a company code to a
company when the company code is already productive?
Answer: You shouldn’t change assignments when a company code is already in
use in a production system. If you do, all of the tables (e.g., global special led-
gers) that derive the company from the company code master data (eld T001-
RCOMP) will adopt the new assignment from a certain point in time, which
will result in data inconsistencies. Reports that read the assignment from Table
T001 will present one result (all of the data will be presented with the new
assignment), while reports that read the line items or the total record will pres-
ent the historical assignment (some data on the old company, and other data on
the new company). The investigation and correction of such inconsistencies can
be very time consuming, and you can never be certain that they have all been
reconciled. Therefore, we strongly recommend not making this type of change
in a production system.
Question:2. Can I change the assignment of a company code to a controlling
area?

Organizational Structure: Denition and Assignment

Answer: You can’t change the assignment of a company code to a controlling
area after the company code is productive and has postings. If you need to reas-
sign a company code to a different controlling area, you have two viable options.
The rst is to create a new company code and perform a traditional data migra-
tion; the second is to use the services from the dedicated SAP team (contact the
SLO [System Landscape Optimization] service reference from SAP). In any case,
the reassignment of a company code to a different controlling area is a complex
activity that should be managed as a dedicated project.
Question:3. Can I change the assignment of a plant to a company code?
Answer: You can’t reassign the plant to another company code if the plant is
productive. If you need to reassign a plant to a different company code, you
have two viable options. The rst is to create a new plant and perform a tradi-
tional data migration; the second is to use the services from the dedicated SAP
team (contact the SLO service reference from SAP). In any case, the reassign-
ment of a plant to a different company code is a complex activity that should be
managed as a dedicated project.
Question:4. Can I assign a controlling area to an operating concern for which the
environment generation hasn’t taken place?
Answer: Yes, this is possible. Transaction KEP8 allows you to create an operat-
ing concern with just the ID (four digits) and the description, without any gen-
eration of the relevant environment. This allows the assignment of the operat-
ing concern to controlling areas.
Troubleshooting Tip
Issue:1. I can’t assign a company code to a controlling area.
Solution: This means that the Controlling area has the Controlling Area Same as
Company Code option selected; see Section 2.1.7, Controlling Area, for more
details. If you want to assign more than one company code to the Controlling
area, change the setting in the Controlling area using Transaction OX06.
Issue: 2. Can I change the assignment of a sales organization to a company code?
Solution: You can’t reassign the sales organization to another company code if
the sales organization is productive. If you need to reassign a sales organization
to a different company code, you have two viable options. The rst is to create
a new sales organization and perform a traditional data migration; the second
is to use the services from the dedicated SAP team (contact the SLO service ref-
erence from SAP). In any case, the reassignment of a sales organization to a dif-
