In the FI General Ledger system, you can control which fields are contained in the entry screens of posting transactions. You can also specify whether these fields are required entry fields (setting the field status). You need to make specifications of this type if you plan to use statistical automatic posting of asset transactions to internal orders or WBS elements. You must make sure that the field "internal order" or "WBS element" is defined as available for input for the field status group "asset accounts."

The field status is controlled by two settings:

  • You can assign a field status variant to each company code. In the field satus variant, you specify the status that certain fields should have in certain account groups (field status groups). You define the account groups yourself.

    You assign the G/L accounts to field status groups in the master records of the G/L accounts.

  • In addition, you can define the field status as dependent on the posting key used for the given posting.

Standard settings

The field status variant 0001 is entered for company code 0001 in the SAP standard system. Field status groups are already defined for this field status variant. The standard field status groups and company codes for asset accounts and asset posting allow additional account assignment to orders and WBS elements.

Note

When you carry out the basic customizing for the FI system (Financial Accounting Global Settings), you assign a field status variant. Therefore, you should not change the assignment of the field status variant in this step. Instead, you should only display the field status variant.

Activities

  1. Check the field status variant that is used in your company code.
  2. Specify that the field status group "asset accounts" allow the field "WBS element" or "CO order" as additional account assignment in the field variant.
  3. Specify that additional account assignment to WBS element or CO order is possible for the posting key for asset acquisitions.
