if you want to change the currency of thiscompany code , you must first delete all cocuments in the company code (This is only possible if the company code is not productive)

As Deepak suggests, the SAP standard for this situation would be to use 4 separate Company Codes. By definition, Company Codes are to be used for individual Legal Entities. This greatly facilitates producing the required financials and the consolidation of them.

Consolidations can be accomplished in a number of ways, including the built-in ECCS module.

Your company may have some very compelling reasons to not use separate company codes, but it should look for ways that it can make the standard work in this case, instead of ways it can make the single CoCode scenario work. This could save lots of headaches down the road.

I am an accountant, and the company which I work for are proposing to integrate four separate legal entities in to one company code on SAP, rather than setting up multiple company codes in an effort to save cost and time. They are suggesting setting up separate cost centres and sales orgs for the new companies, and to amend all current reports to run by cost centre. My gut feeling is that it is a bad idea, and that it would create big problems when it comes to creating separate Financial Statements for the entities. However I do not have enough SAP experience and knowledge to back up my view point.

What is your opinion on this?

A good rule of thumb, and probably the right rule of thumb, is that if you have separate legal entities, you should use separate company codes.

We have subsidiaries which are separate legal entities that are owned by our parent corporation. We have created different company codes for all of these. They use the same chart of accounts because none of them are actually on SAP. Even our Canadian sub has the US chart in SAP. They do their accounting in their system and send the books to us in a spreadsheet, which we use to load into our system.

I highly recommend going with separate company codes if you have separate legal entities. There may be some exceptions to that rule, but I am unaware of them. But if anyone is, please speak up.

If you don’t have separate legal entities, I don’t know of a reason that you would want to use separate company codes. You could very likely accomplish anything you want in either PCA or using one of the other structures.

Cheers!

Can you help me with some input.

What is the error message you are getting? If I can’t help, maybe somebody else might be able to.
