Hi Mohini 1. You could create a Balance Sheet related General Ledger Account for *Prepaid Rent* and a profit and loss account related General Ledger for *Rent paid*. ( T Code : FS00) 2. You could create a *vendor *account for your landlord to whom you pay rent. ( T Code: FK01) 3. You could post a Purchase Invoice (no matter whether your vendor could gives you a bill or not ) *debiting Prepaid Rent* and *Crediting Vendor*. This could be for the large value you mentioned. (T Code: FB60). The impact of this invoice would be to treat the prepaid rent as an asset in your balance sheet and book a vendor liability for the entire sum. 4. You could create a recurring entry schedule in IMG by creating a variant and pre-assigning the payment dates to this variant ( Path : IMG > FINANCIAL ACCNTG. > FIN. ACCTNG. GLOBAL SETTINGS > DOCUMENT > RECURRING ENTRIES......Actually you would see two subnodes ....one for defining your schedule and the second for creating monthly duedate schedule). Define your schedule (am assuming 12 month schedule, for ease of understanding). Am also assuming that you make a lump some payment of the entire invoice value to the vendor . 5. You could create a template ( it is just a template which works as a cue and has no accounting impact ) for reversing one Equated Monthy Installment -EMI. If your prepaid rent is Rs. 120000 per annum you could make this template debiting Rent and crediting Prepaid Rent with Rs. 10000. Please use posting keys 40 and 50 respectively. Please note that you must have defined an internal number range interval *X1* with numbers *9000000000* to 9099999999 for the fiscal year you are accounting. However, this document posted would serve as a cue and has no accounting impact. (T Code : FBD1). This is a single time activity. 6. You could periodically view this Recurring Document to see how many equated monthly installments have been reversed ( You would see a number starting with 1 and progressing up to 12 (and ending with an X mark) each month when you post a reversal. T Code: F.15 7. Each month you could reverse an EMI ( viz. Rs. 10000) by keying in your company code,the schedule variant name, month for which you are reversing the prepaid rent. T Code: F.14 But please note that this would create a session with the name SAPF120 which you need to process from the backend. You could see that the system automatically reverses one EMI by debiting Rent Account ( Rs.10000 each month) and crediting Prepaid Rent. At the end of the 12th month Prepaid Rent becomes zero and your rent is equally allocated to the 12 months @ Rs.10000 per month. That is just all about recurring entries. Try it out.....please Regards VidhyaDhar On Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 4:11 PM, MohiniJ via sap-acct < sap-acct@groups.ittoolbox.com> wrote: > Posted by MohiniJ > on Jul 10 at 10:18 AM Hi > PRakash, > > Thanks a lot for your reply. > Could you please tell me how can we map Accrual postings like pre-paid rent > in SAP. > > Waiting for reply. > > Thanks > Mohini > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: SAP_FICO_certified_Consultant via sap-acct > To: MohiniJ > Sent: Fri, 9 Jul 2010 18:09:00 +0530 (IST) > Subject: Re: [sap-acct] can we assign B/s a/c in PO? > > > > > > > > > > > Posted by SAP_FICO_certified_Consultant > on Jul 9 at 8:35 AM > Mark as helpful > > > > Hi, > You r doing creating PO with Account Assignment object K , which is > compatible for PL GL only.
