Hi

First Understand.....the concept of Automatic Acc. Determination....

Whenever you do one transaction in Inventory Management or Invoice verification or

Revaluation.....based on the
1) Movement Type,
2)Special stock Indicator,
3)Quantity Updating Of Material,
4)Value Updating of Material,
5)Movement Indicator,
6)Consumption Indicator....

One Pre defined Value string Will be triggered....

This Pre-Defined Value string thro Counter....Triggers the Transaction Event Key..

This Transaction Even Key...Based on Chart of accounts,Valuation Grouping Code,Valuation

Class, (Some times Account Modifier)...Triggers the Exact G/L Account....

Like this The process of the System picking up the G/L account automatically is called Automatic
account Determination.....

These relationship what you are asking , you can view in the T156 table....

During goods issue to cost center

Stock Acc. of Material gets Credited....ie) BSX ---

Consumption Acc. gets Debited... ie) GBB-VBR +

Since the TEK, GBB is assigned to so many transactions and movement types....for
eg)201,501,521,561 etc......it is necessary further we have to fine tune the postings....for this
purpose only acc. modifier is used...

Eg) For. 201 movement Type.... GBB-VBR

Eg) For. 501 movement Type.... GBB-ZBO
Eg) For. 521 movement Type.... GBB-ZOF
Eg) For. 561 movement Type.... GBB-BSA

these VBR,ZBO,ZOF and BSA and all called as Account Modifiers......

Reward if useful
Automatic account determination will takes place based on various combinations to identify the
final G/L account. Since, your querry is only limited to transaction and event key, here is the
process:

SAP has defined for each movement type, a value string such as WE01, WE02 etc., This value
string contains number of transaction/event keys (which you can see by clicking the details button
attached to it). You can see this at transaction OMJJ - select any movement type and go to tab:
"Update Control/WM movement types.

Based on the nature of the goods movement, for example GR for Purchase order and with the
combination of value updated and quantity updated, nature of consumption, movement indicator
rd PO with value and quantity updation: value string WE01 will trigger and transaction and event
keys BSX and WRX will trigger.

For offsetting entries, account modifiers (which are finer sub-division of tr/event keys) are defined
which we can assign at transaction:OMWN and accordingly the G/L account will be identified.

As you have asked in case of 201 for cost center. Pl see at OMJJ as explained above, you will
find WE03 value string and the tr/event keys assigned to it.

During GR using mvt type 101 the criteria depending on which the transaction keys will
be triggered is the Value string assigned to the mvt type in standard SAP system.In
standard SAP system the value string WE01 will be assigned to goods receipt for
standard purchase orders.

During GI to cost centres using 201: The transaction event key for consumption posting
will be GBB(Offsetting entry for inventory posting)

Because the posting transaction +Offsetting entry for inventory posting+(GBB) is used
for different transactions and events(such as goods issue,scrapping,physical inventory)
which are assigned to different accounts(For example, the consumption account,expense
due to scrapping,expense/revenue from inventory diferences) it is necessasary to
subdivide the transaction according to a further key.This is done using the account
modifier.The account modifier enables you to differentiate the assignment of G/L
accounts by transaction event key during determination.In standard system,the account
modifier is active only for the transaction event key GBB in the MM area.However,if
necessary ,you can also use account modifier for other transactions in your enterprise(for
price differences)

Hope this will be helpful
