Document splitting enables a complex display of documents.
Line items are split here for selected dimensions. This
ensures that you can draw up complete financial statements
for the selected dimensions at any time.
Using the document splitting procedure, you can also create
a segmented display of a (partial) balance sheet according
to a legal requirement (for example, IAS) or according to
areas of responsibility.
In addition, you can allocate at the time of posting
additional costs (such as realized or valuated exchange
rate differences) to the CO account assignment objects that
incurred the costs. Assets can also be subsequently
capitalized at the time of posting.
Implementation Considerations
You need to make settings in Customizing and other
preparations for document splitting.
Integration
Document splitting has an effect on subsequent processes
such as closing operations and on processes in Controlling
(CO).
Features
You can use the document splitting procedure to split up
line items for selected dimensions (such as receivable
lines by profit center) or to effect a zero balance setting
in the document for selected dimensions (such as segment).
This generates additional clearing lines in the document.
Document Splitting Process
For document splitting to be possible, the system
classifies individual document items and the documents.
This takes place using your settings in Customizing. Each
classification corresponds to a splitting rule in which it
is specified how document splitting is to occur and for
which line items.
SAP delivers a set of standard splitting rules. You can
also define your own rules.
For an example of the document splitting process, see
Overview of Document Splitting Process.
Subfunctions of Document Splitting
The following functions are part of document splitting:
· Passive document splitting: Clearing and similar
processes
The system creates a reference to existing account
assignments. These account assignments are used as the
basis for line items to be split. The system applies all
account assignments that you have defined as document
splitting characteristics in Customizing.
If you have set the Zero Balance Setting indicator for the
document splitting characteristic, the system then ensures
that the characteristics produce a balance of zero in each
document by creating clearing lines.
· Active document splitting: Splitting a document
In this subfunction, the line items are split according to
the settings in Customizing (the classification and
assigned splitting rule).
· Subsequent processes
¡ Clearing, for example, realized exchange rate
differences
In this subsequent process, you can also post resulting,
realized exchange rate differences with the CO account
assignments that incurred the costs.
¡ Closing operations, for example, foreign currency
valuation
You can carry out closing operations according to the
defined document splitting characteristics.
Displaying the Split Document
You can display a document as follows:
· In its original form in the entry view
· Split from the view of a ledger in the general
ledger view and with the generated clearing lines
How the document is displayed in the general ledger view
depends on whether the ledger to which you want to post
contains the document splitting characteristics to be
applied in document splitting.
Constraints
You can only use document splitting for documents that can
be uniquely assigned to a business process. The relevant
correlation is unclear when there are multiple business
processes within one document (see also active document
splitting).
