Answer / devendar

In some industries, branches of a company sell their goods independently but the accounting for these sales is performed centrally (at the head office). You can represent this type of organizational structure in the R/3 System by using head office and branch accounts.

The head office account can be any vendor account except one-time accounts or branch accounts themselves. Branch accounts and head office accounts must belong to the same company code.

You must enter the number of the head office account in the Head office field in the branch account master record. This field is contained in the company code area of the master record.

Head office field is maintained in Vendor Master, it can used to link vendors and to transfer entries from HO vendor to regional/citywise vendor..

For E.g vendor like airtel/vodafone request payment to be done circlewise (mumbai/delhi/chennai) bank account.

1. Create and HO Vendor VODAHO
2. Create citywise vendor VODAMUM,VODADEL,VODACHEN and maintain the HO vendor in their master.

Everytime you post a entry in the circlewise vendor it also gets reflected in HO vendor line item display.

Note: the actual posting is done for Circle vendor only.

Link between Branch Accounts and Head Office Account
To link branch accounts to a head office account, you must enter the number of the head office account in the Head office field in the branch account master record. This field is contained in the company code area of the master record.
The head office account can be any vendor account except one-time accounts or branch accounts themselves. Branch accounts and head office accounts must belong to the same company code.
Line Item Display
When you are entering the parameters for line item display, you should note the following: for head office accounts, enter the key
004 in the field Sort key. This instructs the system to display the line items for the head office account sorted by branch. This key is defined in the table for allocation rules.
For more information on line item display and the Sort key field, see
