We can link all AA transaction types with Cognos flow except for 3 Cognos flows:
300 Acq. Subsidaries
301 Acq. 3rd party
340 Own construction
Why this Cognos flows can not be assigned to AA transaction types:
ERP process of acquiring new assets is using investment module. This means that all acquisitions for assets are first posted on Investment order (measure) and latter settled to assets (monthly settlement on Asset under construction (AUC) and final settlement on fixed asset in use).
Standard Sap functionality always uses only one type of AA transaction to make this settlement.
In the case of settlement to AUC = 116
In the case of final settlement = 331, 336, 338, 339
(in this case we don't have control which one is used). Since transfer of values between AuC and final asset is not reported to Cognos we don't have any GAP (issue) for this.
This means that every acquiring transfer for assets gets 116 AA TTY. For the Cognos reporting this transaction should be divided in 3 parts:
1. Acq. Subsidaries
2. Acq. 3rd party
3. Own construction
Way to fill the gap :
Enhancement should be developed which should substitute AA TTY 116 with appropriate AA TTY.
This can be based on the type of posting posted to Investment order.
For the Cognos flow 301 Acq. 3rd party:
This posting can be identified in the following way. Vendor invoice was posted on Investment order for a vendor which is not affiliated company (trading partner field empty). When making the order settlement this posting should get 100 AA TTY.
For the Cognos flow 300 Acq. Subsidaries:
This posting can be identified in the following way. Vendor invoice was posted on Investment order for a vendor which is affiliated company (trading partner field filled in the posting). When making the order settlement this posting should get Z10 AA TTY (this TTY has to be created).
For the Cognos flow 340 Own construction:
This posting can be identified in the following way. The posting did not come to the investment order from vendor invoice posting but from the settlement of production order to investment order. When making the order settlement this posting should get 110 AA TTY. Note: it should be checked if there are also other postings (like Goods receipt, Goods receipt for production order�) that can be posted to investment order as part of own construction and how they can be identified. Perhaps we can just make a rule, if the posting did not come from vendor it is in house production.
Thanks for you help.
