SAP Program RHXINLV0_LSO - Internal Activity Allocation for Courses

Description
This report lets you carry out internal activity allocation for coursesbetween the training provider and participant by means of credit anddebit memos. The participant's cost center (receiving) is debited andthe cost center of the cost object (sender) is credited with the coursecosts.
In addition, you can cancel bookings for participants for whom costshave already been allocated. You can change price or cost centerassignment data as long as costs for the participant have not yet beenallocated.

Integration
You activate integration with Cost Accounting (CO) for activityallocation purposes in Customizing for Training Management underActivity Allocation.

Preconditions

  • Attendance must be flagged as 'relevant for activity allocation'.

  • You make this assignment when you execute the function Book withFee. If you do not use this function and book particpation withoutfee assignment, the settings made for the participant type inCustomizing under Specify Participant TypeControl apply.
    • The participant may not be on the waiting list.

    • The participant's cost center assignment must be maintained.

    • The account assignment object (cost center/order/PSP element) must be
    • maintained.
      • The sender cost center must be maintained.

      • The sender cost center and the account assignment object must be in the
      • same controlling area.
        • The activity type must be maintained.

        • Note
          To be able to use the internal activity allocation functions, you mustfirst create a network of activities. You must define plannedactivities and prices and the relevant activity types for the costcenters involved in the allocation process. For Training Managementpurposes, however, it is sufficient to plan the activity price of thesender cost center together with the activity type set in Customizingin the step Specify Activity Type
          .
          The following points regarding activity typeare important:
          ACTIVITY CATEGORY = 1 (manual entry andallocation) with the corresponding cost element (see point 2)
          COST ELEMENT= secondary (internal allocationscreated by you, the customer)
          COST ELEMENT CATEGORY = 43 (internalactivity allocation)
          Planning activities/activity prices
          PRICE = 1

          Features

          Selection
          You can set parameters to determine the data output by the report:
          Course selection
          There are a number of ways to start the report:
          Enter one or more course groups. The system finds all of thecourses belonging to the specified group(s) and lists the participants.
          Enter one or more course types. The system finds all of thecourses and participants belonging to the specified type(s).
          Enter one or more courses whose participant fees are to beallocated.
          Reporting period
          Enter the exact period for which you want to determine participants forallocation.
          List output
          You can specify what data the report should output, such asparticipants, for example, not yet allocated.
          You can select the indicator Hide non-relevant to specify thatcourses for which the report finds no results (due to yourspecification, for example, do not output already allocatedparticipants) are not displayed in the list.
          Document date
          Enter a date in this field if you want to change the default date ofthe activity allocation. This date is used purely for informationpurposes. The default date is usually the current date.
          Posting date
          The date in this field indicates when costs are to be posted to CO, inother words, the settlement period. The default date is usually thecourse start date. You can overwrite this date as required.
          Example
          You want to perform activity allocation for a participant of a coursethat started on February 2 of this year. However, you want costsallocated in the second quarter rather than in the first quarter. Inthis case, you enter April 2 of this year as the posting date.
          Standard selection screen
          If you select this indicator and choose Execute, you access themore detailed selection screen of the main report RHINLV00 before thereport is run.
          Note
          On the selection screen of the main report you can search for objectsby 'status', for example. As a rule, it is not necessary to go to themain report since the selection screen of the pre-report offerssufficient selection options. If you do not want to access the detailedselection screen, do not activate this option before choosingExecute.

          Output
          The report outputs a list containing the following information percourse:

          • Course:

          • Attendee

          • Organizational assignment

          • Sender cost center

          • Activity type

          • Activity allocation price

          • Account assignment object(s) (for example, receiving cost center)

          • Document number

          • You can perform activity allocation from the list screen.
            If you select attendees for activity allocation and choose Createactivity allocation, all activity allocation data is transferred toCO.
            The following process flow takes place:
            A validation check is performed on the document items.
            If the items are validated, a reference document is generated with thestatus transfer designated.
            The BAPI/ALE for the activity allocation is called.
            The status of the reference document changes to transfer effected (yellow/amber light).
            Due to the fact that the systems may be decoupled (CO and TrainingManagement in distributed systems), confirmation of this transaction isnecessary to ensure that the transaction has actually been executed.
            For this purpose, you must call the function Compare document.The system searches for the original CO document.
            If it finds the original document, the status of the reference documentchanges to Transfer confirmed (green light).
            You can display the original document by choosing View ->Ref. <-> Original document.
            If the original document cannot be found, the status of the referencedocument changes to Transfer incorrect (red light).
            For more information on the procedure when the original document cannotbe found, refer to Error diagnosis.
            You can execute the following functions from the list screen:
            • Display the document flow for course, in other words, all of the
            • relevant allocation data that exists for the course. (The cursor mustbe positioned on the course.)
              • Display the document flow for the participant, in other words,
              • all of the relevant allocation data that exists for the participant.(The cursor must be positioned on the participant.)
                • Display document (reference document)

                • Display error log (confirmations of check/execution of activity
                • allocation)
                  • Check whether the relevant data can be allocated. This function
                  • also checks whether the settlement period is closed, in which case,data transfer to CO is not allowed.
                    • Cancel document: If activity allocation was incorrect, you can
                    • cancel the CO document and execute the function again. This process isequivalent to generating a new document.
                      • Change the fee and assignment for not yet allocated
                      • attendees.
                        • Participation list

                        • Cancellation list
                        • Note
                          If you are perfoming activity allocation in distributed systems (HR undCO in different systems), please note the information contained inSet Activity Allocation for Training and EventManagement.
