Tip: Keep Source Company Code Intact When Copying New Company Code

When copying from the source company code to create a new company code, make sure that the G/L accounts of the source company code have no values for House Bank and Account ID. In other words, ensure that you have not used SSCUI Manage G/L Account Master Data to assign the House Bank and Account ID information to the G/L accounts before copying the source company code.

SAP’s recommendation is to keep the source company code intact, so that it can be used as the template for your own company code. Otherwise, activation issues may occur. Once you have created your own company code by copying the source company code, you can then use SSCUI Manage G/L Account Master Data to assign the House Bank and Account ID information to the G/L accounts of your own company code.
