INHERITANCE

SCENARIO #1
Documents in entry view:
Document type AB: Derived business transaction variant 0000 (unspecified posting)
Bank 113100

Business Area 1

Bank 113110

EUR 1000
EUR 1000

The rule of the business transaction variant (unspecified posting) does not split account 113110.
Account assignment for segment A in the document is unique. In this way, if inheritance is active,
segment A is inherited by account 113110:
Bank 113100

Business Area 1 -

EUR 1000

Bank 113110

Business Area 1

EUR 1000

If not then it wont be copied to 113110. Also you then cannot take proper balance sheets based on
business area. as Balance of business area will not be = 0.

Inheritance: Indicator is not set ('UN-Select Check box ')

Lines can be left without account assignments, even if the document splitting characteristics in the
document are unique. Exception: You have set the Standard Account Assignment indicator.

Inheritance: Indicator is set ('Select Check box ')

Indicator is set('X')
If the rule-based document splitting produces lines without account assignments, these lines inherit the
document splitting characteristics.

DOCUMENT SPLITTING:
SCENARIO #2

Ex: Vendor A has raised an invoice worth 5000/- for the purchase of stationary items from him. Following
are the postings for vendor invoice

Stationery Exps., 1600 Dr CCTR1 PCTR1 SEGM1

Stationery Exps., 400 Dr CCTR2 PCTR2 SEGM2
Input Tax

320 Dr

To Vendor A

2320 Cr

SCENARIO #3
Please go trough this example

Example

Example 1: Invoice

Suppose a vendor invoice containing the following items is entered:

Posting Key Account Segment Amount

31 Payables -100
40 Expense 0001

40

40 Expense 0002 60

Document splitting then creates the following document in the General Ledger view:

Posting Key Account Segment Amount

31 Payables 0001 -40
31 Payables 0002 -60
40 Expense 0001 40
40 Expense 0002 60

Example 2: Payment

The payment for the above vendor invoice then contains the following items when entered:

Posting Key Account Segment Amount

50 Bank -95
25 Payables 100
50 Cash Discount Received -5

Document splitting then creates the following document in the General Ledger view:

Posting Key Account Segment Amount

50 Bank 0001 -38
50 Bank 0002 -57
25 Payables 0001 40
25 Payables 0002 60

50 Cash Discount Received 0001

-2

50 Cash Discount Received 0002

-3

Scenario #4

Document splitting issue

I am using standard Splitting method 12 Splitting: Same as 0000000002 (Follow-Up Costs Online). Also
all the item categories are assigned to respective account as 03000 to vendor GL accounts etc. But my
document splitting is not happening as below:

Exp 1

1000 Rs Cost centre A

Profit centre X

Exp 2

1500 Rs Cost centre B

Profit Centre Y

vendor

2500 Rs

But it is not splitting as below

Exp1 1000 Rs Cost Centre A Profit Centre X

Exp 2 1500 Rs Cost Centre B Profit Centre Y
Vendor 1000 Rs Profit Centre X
Vendor 1500 Rs Profit Centre Y

Rather than it is giving profit centre balancing error.

I have recheked the necesary settings.

What is missing pls suggest.

Ans:
Please check when you configured the docuemnt splitting then you tick the mandatory buttom of profit
centre or not.

SCENARIO #5
Before the New-GL works like this. But now, You can post

Advance Bank Receipt = $100 (segment A)

Advance Bank Receipt = $200 (segment B)
Customer XYZ
= ($300)

But now, you will works like this:

Advance Bank Receipt = $100 (segment A)

Advance Bank Receipt = $200 (segment B)
Customer XYZ
= ($100) (segment A)
Customer XYZ
= ($200) (segment B)

The inheritance will come by bank account and split the vendor line in two lines.

CONSTANT
There is one field "constant" in Document Splitting Activation screen (refer screen shot
attached). Please let me know, what is the use of this "constant" field.
What is the implication if we do not mention this "constant" value

Constant field is used for deriving the account assignment value like profi center or segment or business
area value during document splitting if the document is not able to derive value from the posted
document.

For Example.

You posted Vendor invoice with two different profit centers,

Vendor

Cr

200

Rent

Dr

100

Salary

Dr

100

Cost Center(A) Profit Center(A)

Cost Center(B) Profit Center(B)

System will split the value in general ledger view as below. Called Active split

Vendor

Cr

100

Profit Center(A)

Vendor

Cr

100

Profit Center(B)

Rent

Dr

100

Cost Center(A) Profit Center(A)

Salary

Dr

100

Cost Center(B) Profit Center(B)

When you make payment with reference to above invoice then system will derive the profit centers from
the invoice, and system will derive the profit center value as below. Called Passive Split.

Vendor

Dr

100

Profit Center(A)

Vendor

Dr

100

Profit Center(B)

Bank Clearing a/c

Cr

100

Profit Center(A)

Bank Clearing a/c

Cr

100

Profit Center(B)
