posting keys has given morthan 1 for other than gl acconts . why they have given like that?..

Answer / ayesha

The Subledger accounts do not have field status group. So
they are differentiated mainly via posting keys. Therefore
they need many posting keys to identify the nature of the
trasaction. But with G/L transactions the differentiation is
mainly done through Field Status Group.therefore they need
only two posting keys, one for debit and one for credit.

Posting keys given morethan one because of

Posting Key 50 is credit
That why they given more then one

In SAP 40,50 using for General Ledger Posting

etc
etc

why we have more posting key means the posting entry data
will sit in different Table.

Answer / uma sankar

There are two reasions are there...

1.Main ledger has only one Document Type so that it has
only two posting keys(SA=DR 40 and CR 50).But it is not
like that for Sub ledgers.Sience Sub Ledgers having
differnt Document Types.Those are like......

A/P== KA,KZ,KR,KG
A/R===DA,DZ,DR,DG..SO that these doc types having different
posting keys..

2.The Subledger accounts do not have field status group. So
they are differentiated mainly via posting keys. Therefore
they need many posting keys to identify the nature of the
trasaction. But with G/L transactions the differentiation is
mainly done through Field Status Group.therefore they need
only two posting keys, one for debit and one for credit.
