According to recent statistics, SAP Material Ledger topic is becoming the most viewed one...)

Okay, so below is the list of t-codes of Hellenization standard solution:

SAP PY and FI-AP, PA30 t-code issue when maintaining Bank Details infotype

When trying to create Bank Details (InfoType 0009) via PA30 t-code for ABCD employee, following error occurs: 

Please do not enter bank data for payment method Cash Payment 
Message No. RP568 
Diagnosis 
The bank data cannot be processed for the payment method specified ('). 
Procedure 
Please use a different payment method or delete the entries for bank key, bank account (and bank control key, if applicable). 

Basically solution here is to maintain payment method for bank account,which is very straightforward APP setting, but according to statistics of my posts, APP posts are the most viewed ones..? 

Anyways solution is as following:

FBZP t-code -Pmnt method in Country 

Following entry to be added: 

Country: XYZ

Pymt Method: ABC 

Description  Bank Transfer 

Description  Bank Transfer 

Payment method for: 

‘Outgoing payments’- checked 

Payment method classification: 

‘Bank transfer’- checked 

‘Allowed for personnel payments’- checked 

Required master record specifications: 

‘Street, PO box or PO box postal code’- checked 

‘Bank details’- checked 

‘Account number required’- checked 

‘IBAN required’- checked 

Posting details: 

Document type for payment: [  ]         

Clearing document type: [  ]              

FBZP t-code -Payment methods in Company code

Following new entry to be added:

Paying co. code 1234   CoCd Description

Pymt Method     ABC     Bank Transfer

Minimum amount                                 LC

Maximum amount    999,999,999.00   LC

Distribution amnt                                  LC

SAP PS, Project Budget Tolerance Limit

This post will be short and straightforward one and will be covering PS basics, but in case you find it useful, GOOD! :)

So, assume, you've set project budget tolerance limit to 15% for the Group and now certain entities are willing to change it to 10%, i.e. you they wanting system to hard stop any Project/WBS related activities, when budget exceeds 10%.

I'd do the following in this case:

(a) create additional Project Profile in V_TBPFD_P view (SM30 or check for configuration t-code in SPRO), you should be having something like following:

AS IS:

CoAr.    PROF.  DESCRIPTION            TR.GRP     ACT.      USAGE:
XYZ 0 General budget profile ++               1 105,00
XYZ 0 General budget profile ++               3 115,00

TO BE:
CoAr.    PROF.  DESCRIPTION            TR.GRP     ACT.      USAGE:
XYZ 0 General budget profile ++               1 105,00
XYZ 0 General budget profile ++               3 115,00
XYZ 1 General budget profile ++               3 110,00

(b) create new substitution step that is valid for Project System via OPSN t-code, substition to be something like following:

(c) activate the new substitution for all of the Project Profiles in following way:

And this is it. Now that you'll be creating new WBS element, system will be defaulting 'Budget Profile' field value to '0' initially, but once you save WBS element, 'Project Profile' field value will be replaced with '1' ,hence new project tolerance limit will be applied.

SAP FI, Defaulting of 'Tax Reporting Date' (BKPF-VATDATE) in FB01 t-code

As per SAP standard, Tax Reporting Date in Document Header section of FB01 t-code is being defaulted with Posting Date. Let's assume, you're required to enhance it so that it stops defaulting the value in Tax Reporting Date field or ,as an example, you want it to be defaulted with Document Date field value.
Note that below described approach is not supported by SAP standard, so I'd advise you to discuss the approach with your ABAP people.

SE18 t-code:
Enhancement Spot VATDATE_RULES with the BADI definition VATDATE_VALUES.
A default implementation: VATDATE_VALUES_DEFAULT_SAP

Create Z* enhancement implementation:

And add the following logic into it:

IF BKPF-BUKRS= 'this and that' then BKPF-VATDATE to be equal to BKPF- BLDAT when posting document through FB01, FB60, MIRO and VF01 t-codes.

That's about it :) 

SAP MM, Material Ledger, post New G/L migration issue with J* reports

Suppose New G/L migration is happening in FY 2020, and ,out of the blue, J1GGL report stops displaying data for the specified ledger(s) for G/L accounts, which is linked to GLT0 table update post New G/L migration.
When asking SAP, they might advise you to take a look at the following SAP note # 923946 with some correction instructions provided in it, which ,in fact, is not solving the issue with J* reports. Programs that can be affected are as following:
J_1GALTB Ledger Trial Balance (Official)
J_1GALTL Update A/L (FI) from SPL
J_1GGL000 Detailed Ledger
J_1GJR_ROUTINES Document Journal
J_1GSL000 Summarized Ledger
J_1GTBAC0 Ledger Trial Balance in ASCII file
J_1GTBGL0 Ledger Trial Balance (Unofficial)
J_1GVL_ALPOST_DI Analytical Ledger (A/L) postings for Materials
J_1GVL_WHBT05 Read actual values for given WHB column

In reality workaround to the issue is as simple as below:

(1) Execute J1GGL for ALL of the the prior to FY 2020 fiscal years (i.e. all of the FYs prior to New G/L migration). I believe, some FM is being re-generated at this step. If you know FM technicalities, then just re-generating it via SE37 should be enough (and share FM naming in comments section!:))

(2) Execute J1GGL for the FY 2020 and validate whether now data is being displayed correctly. 

SAP FI, Adding of user-specific fields into Asset standard reportings (for example, Asset Balances report)

Suppose requirement is to add user- specific field Transaction Type into Asset Balances report, in order to do so, ANEP table needs to be added into OAVI t-code/or V_T086_N view, which is not possible through SAP standard restrictions.

So below approach is aimed to enhance Asset Balances report with this regards, which is ,once again, is not supported by SAP standard.

SE38: RABEWG_ALV01 program

Structure: FIAA_SALVTAB_RABEWG

Component: .INCLUDE to be copied into new ZFIAA_SALVTAB component, by using Append Structure, highlighted on above screenshot.

Component type is FIAA_SALVTAB_ALL.

Add BWASL into newly created component ZFIAA_SALVTAB:

Check whether ANEPV-BWASL will be available in ALV fields on RABEWG_ALV01 report.

Alternatively, validate whether adding ANEPV-BWASL into structure CI_REPRABEWG can be applicable.
