Accounting rules

• Fixed assets supplier debt is recorded in SAP monthly through the transaction Z1F_CAP_Monthly_Post.
• The debt is cumulating invoices and good receipt accruals NOT YET PAID linked to assets acquisition.
• The amount considered as debt have to reflect exactly the amount in fixed assets expenses meaning without tax and reevaluation.
• The amounts are recorded in BFC L40800 split by CGU – the split is insured based on BW AP data but sent through SAP/ BFC Interface.
• The CGU is the one included in the profit center linked to the WBS for WP1 or business area for PF1 in the P&L posting.
• The amount recorded in L40800 is offset by Trade payable L40100.
• Assets Down payment have separate account are recorded separately in A40170 in BFC and are not part of the posting.
• All intercompany debt will be eliminated at trade payable level L40100, they are not included in L40800.

Operational schemes

...

• CAPEX Suppliers Data Collection
  • Capex Fixed Asset Expenses Selection in the program
    • The selection is based Check cost object is classified as Investment, i.e. will only be considered if the object in the PO \ Invoice is an Order that settles to an Investment type WBS or directly an Investment WBS.
    • The program will select the accruals and reconciliation accounts based on the Z1F_SEL_ACCOUNTS in SM30 according to automated accruals, and automated transport accruals as well as vendor reconciliation accounts.

• • Impacts in adjacent tools
    • Changes to the SAP program Z1F_CAP_Monthly_Post
      • Performing changes in this program and structure should take in to consideration informing the team managing the BW structure as well as the interface in SAP tables to BFC and BW extraction accounts.
      • Specific transactions are executed in the background by IS to feed this transaction. In case of any changes or disruptions assessment of the impact on the tables below should be reviewed with IS.
        • Z1F_CAP_PO_I_BSV
        • Z1F_CAP_PO_I_PLV

...

• CAPEX Fixed Asset Expenses

...

• • Without VAT, Specific Withholding taxes or other Discount
    • Reasoning is that amount assigned to the FXA Expense account and hence settled to the Investment is net based on the Accrued Good Receipt.
    • At the moment of reconciliation of Good Receipt \ Invoice Receipt if any price difference exists, it will be assigned to the FXA Expense and consequently settled to the Investment.
      • This is also applicable to the Subsequent Debits to the Good Receipt, i.e. the foreseen or Additional Transport costs.
    • Invoices and all the additional items within: VAT, Specific Withholding taxes or other Discount
      • These items will not be taken in to account as not considered in the capital expenditure.

• • Without Revaluation – Treatment of accruals \ Invoices in foreign Currency
    • • Good Receipts (General Rule) are not valuated at month end on the assumption that at moment a GR is issued and settled to the Investment it is at the moment of acceptance and at actual rate.
      • Invoices Receipt (General Rule) are valuated at month end under the General Suppliers heading whilst open for payment. For Capex Supplier (L40800) the reclassification of the Revaluation portion will not follow.
      • The reclassification of Vendors to Vendors to Fixed Assets takes place at historical rate at company code currency.
        • Risk: in a company where the majority of the suppliers are CAPEX and there is a strong devalue of the local currency.
          • Consequence the Valuation impact in the L40100 will be a debtor.

However by use of BW query:

Result:

In this case we see there are differences:

A Positive in 23*2001 - means we debit L40100 and Credit L40800
A Negative in 23*2001 - means we credit L40100 and debit L40800
A Positive in 232*2001 - means we credit L40100 and debit L40800
A Negative in 232*2001 - means we we debit L40100 and Credit L40800
The origin of the differences could be:
BW – Delta not justified - SAP posting with possible adjustment based on BW
SAP - Delta not justified - Big variance (more than 5% or 50K) - Posting based on BW
If we should perform the adjustment via BW:

1. Request via e-mail ticket to IS RtR Management (Pierre-Eric Pontonnier or Sandrine Micollet the values from BW):Management 

Example WP1WP2:

Example PF1PF2:

• Postings are performed by Profit Center (WP1WP2) or BA (PF1PF2)
• The posting should be done by FBS1 to allow reversal by F.81
• In the link below you will find an example for PF1 PF2 and to WP1WP2.
