Number Ranges

In configuring JVA, you must specify the following three types of number ranges:

  • Number ranges for JVA documents created by the JVA process Cutback and for documents created by the other JVA processes
  • Number ranges for the processing master data objects (joint operating agreement (JOA) and joint venture (JV))
  • Number range for the billing record number index

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

JVA Document Number Ranges

During JVA configuration, you must define a number range for JVA documents produced by the period-end process Cutback, which takes amounts booked gross to the venture and equity group and rebooks them as net amounts to the non-operating partners and the operator.

JVA also produces some additional automatic postings related to such processes as cost calculations, CI/NPI processing, and non-operated billing. You must define a number range to be used in assigning numbers to these documents as well.

For both Cutback and other JVA documents, the number range object number must be set to 01.

JOA and JV Number Ranges

Two of the key objects used in assigning expenses to joint ventures are joint operating agreements (JOA's) and joint ventures (JV's). You will set up these objects themselves in JVA processing, but you must define number ranges for them and indicate whether the numbers for the objects will be determined by the system (internal) or the user (external) in JVA configuration.

Billing Record Number Range

The first time a JVA billing extract is run it generates an index record for the billing record in table T8JIX. This index is assigned a number based on the number range assigned here for billing record numbers.

On subsequent runs of the JVA billing extract in later months, the index entry in T8JIX is checked against the new extract to identify changes. If the new record differs from the previously indexed record, a new index entry is generated in T8JIX.

The indexed record in T8JIX is also used in billing follow-on processes, such as to support supplemental billing, drilldown reporting, and generation of the JADE (Joint Interest Auditing Extract) report.

Recommendation

Activities

These number ranges are used within JVA, but the format and procedure for specifying them conforms to that used for number ranges in standard SAP. That is, you assign a unique numerical identifier to the number range. You then specify the beginning and ending numbers in the range and indicate whether the numbers in the range should be assigned internally by the system or externally by the user.
