Key which has a different meaning depending on the procedure. It is used to differentiate account determination. The key's meaning is predefined in the SAP system and cannot be changed.

Example

For tax postings, you can enter a tax code as the key.

For tax clearing entries for down payments, you enter the modification key defined for down payments. This key was determined based on account type, special G/L indicator, and reconciliation account.

For statistical offsetting entries, you enter a two-character identification code. The first character is the account type. The second character is the respective special G/L indicator.

For offsetting entries for inventory postings, you enter the key which is assigned to the movement type and posting string.

Use

The system uses the key entered here to find the account for transactions/events with active account grouping in the table of account keys.

Account grouping has been defined for the following transactions/events:

• GBB (offsetting entry for inventory posting)

• PRD (price differences)

• KON (consignment liabilities)

In the standard R/3 System, account grouping is only active for the internal processing key GBB (offsetting entry for inventory posting).

Account grouping for GBB

For the transaction/event GBB (offsetting entry for inventory posting), the following account groupings have already been assigned to the relevant movement types:

• AUF: for goods receipts for production orders with account assignment

• BSA: for intial entries of stock balances

• INV: for expense/revenue from inventory differences

• VAX: for goods issues for sales orders without account assignment object

• VAY: for goods issues for sales orders with account assignment object

• VBO: for consumptiom from stock of material provided to vendor

• VBR: for internal goods issues (e.g., for cost center)

• VKA: for consumption for sales order without SD

• VNG: for scapping/destruction

• VQP: for sampling

• ZOB: for goods receipts without purchase orders

• ZOF: for goods receipts without production orders

Account grouping for PRD

If you also activate account grouping for transaction/event PRD (price differences) when you make the settings for automatic postings, the following account groupings are already assigned to the relevant movement types in the standard R/3 System:

• none for goods receipts and invoice receipts for purchase orders

• PRF: for goods receipts for production orders

• PRA: for goods issues and other goods movements

Account grouping for KON

If you also activate account grouping for transaction/event KON (consignment liabilities) when you make the settings for automatic postings, the following account groupings are already assigned to the relevant movement types in the standard R/3 System:

• none for consignment liabilities

• PIP: for pipeline liabilities

Examples

In a goods movement, the offsetting entry for inventory posting (transaction/event GBB) can be effected on various accounts depending on the movement type:

Movement type Account grouping Account

561 Initial entry of
stock balances BSA 399999
201 GI cost center VBR 400000

Procedure

If you use the standard setting, no further action is required.

You can also define your own account groupings for the transaction/event GBB.

Example:
If you wish to post goods issues for cost centers (movement type 201) and goods issues for orders (movement type 261) on separate consumption accounts, you could assign account grouping ZZZ to movement type 201 and account grouping YYY to movement type 261, for example. In the step "Automatic postings", you can then assign different accounts to the individual account groupings.

For transactions/events PRD and KON, the acccount groupings are fixed.
