Activate Elimination of Internal Business Volumes

IBV_ELIM

* from Allevo version 2.7 (extended in 3.4.33)

The elimination of internal business volumes is activated by entering X in column Value from.

During selection of data, all data records where sender and recipient of an allocation are the selected elements, are then ignored for the row definitions F, G, I and J (secondary costs, reading by cost element); this concerns the reading from table COSS, in current versions also the Allevo object with table /KERN/ACOSS). Relevant rules during reading:

· With value type 4, data records for value type 9 are selected as well

· With value type 1, data records for value type 8 are selected as well

Data records are being ignored (excluded from selection) if one of the following conditions is fulfilled:

· The debit/credit indicator is “H“ and the relevant object is also entered as partner object (field PAROB).

· The debit/credit indicator is “S“ and one of the objects to be selected is also entered as object of origin (field USPOB).

This also applies if e.g. reading along orders has been activated as well.

Note:

In some cases of the internal business volumes (especially when allocating activity through order settlement), a special situation is represented by credit posting since the final partner object is not yet known at the time of posting, but is only defined once the settlement is completed. Moreover, the cost elements for the debit and credit posting fall apart. No information about the partner is thus contained in the data record of the credit posting. It will only be generated by SAP at the time of the settlement via the additional posting through an individual value type. In order to eliminate the internal business volume for the credit, value types 8 (correction rate internal business volume plan) and 9 (correction rate internal business volume actual) must be activated both for the column definitions as well as for the above- mentioned row definitions.

* New from version 3.0.7

By entering X in column Value to, elimination of internal business volumes is now available also in profit center planning. Example:  if, for example, a cost center delivers an activity allocation (or another secondary posting) to an order in the same profit center, this relation will not be displayed during reading from the profit center.  

The function is available for row definitions C and D in profit center planning, and P in profit center integration. Technical meaning: A data record is ignored if

· the selected object (field RPRCTR) is also contained in field EPRCTR of GLPCT or

· if both partner profit centers are members of the current group in an 1:N group

The same rules apply when using the new general ledger (see constant PC_READTABLE); however, the comparison then relates to the corresponding fields of FAGLFLEXT.

Important:

If the elimination of internal business volumes is active, the constant SELECT_TURBO may not be used for accelerated reading. Respecting the rules for the elimination of internal business volumes requires a more complex selection than usual in the Allevo standard. The number of simultaneously processed objects should be limited in order to prevent runtime problems.

* New from version 3.1.4

The elimination of internal business volumes is now possible also in profit center planning via row definitions A and B.

* New from version 3.4.33

Activation also for Allevo object via /KERN/ACOSS table.
