In this step you can create companies. A company is an organizational unit in Accounting which represents a business organization according to the requirements of commercial law in a particular country.
You store basic data for each company in company definition. You only specify particular functions when you customize in Financial Accounting. Company G0000 is preset in all foreign key tables.
In the SAP system, consolidation functions in financial accounting are based on companies. A company can comprise one or more company codes.
When you create a company you should bear in mind the following points relating to group accounting:
- If your organization uses several clients, the companies which only appear as group-internal business partners, and are not operational in each system, must be maintained in each client. This is a precondition for the account assignment of a group-internal trading partner.
- Companies must be cataloged in a list of company IDs which is consistent across the group. The parent company usually provides this list of company IDs.
- It is also acceptable to designate legally dependent branches 'companies' and join them together as a legal unit by consolidation.
Recommendation
SAP recommends that you keep the preset company ID G00000 if you only require one company. In this way you reduce the number of tables which you need to adjust.
Activities
Create your companies.
Further notes
All company codes for a company must work with the same operational chart of accounts and fiscal year. The currencies used can be different.
