Hi experts
I have a question regarding cross company code postings. I am aware of the following steps to be performed to configure cross company codes postings in FI:
1. The document being used should be activated for inter-company postings (OBA7)
2. GL or customer/ vendor accounts should be created in cross company codes
3. Cross-company code transactions should be enabled among those companies by defining posting rules (OBYA)
4. Necessary configuration for manual postings (OB60) or automatic postings (FBZP) has to be done.
After doing that configuration I have entered some inter-company transactions which are apparently working fine when I enter postings for different companies in a single document and cross-company document are created. However, the system is not creating cross-company document in the other company if I enter items relating to one one company code in a document.
For example, if in my company I book a receivable from the other group company by debiting that company as my customer (customer code already created in my company and my company already created as vendor in that company during my above config steps) and credit a revenue item, entry is posted in my company successfully but simultaneous entry not automatically created in that other company. Of course cross-company document is also not being created.
I want to know whether automatic cross-company document should be created in this scenario and corresponding document should be created in that other company or not. I understand that cross-company functionality is meant for this purpose i.e. to save time in manually creating corresponding document in the other company.
Any help/ guidance would be appreciated.
