G/L Balance carry Forward

Hi All,
If I do G/L balance carry forward using F.16 (SAPFGVTR), is it going to forward balances of P & L accounts also or else only balance sheet accounts.
Thanks in Advance !

Hi,
you can transfer the balances using F.16 where the balances of the G/L account will be carried forwarded into the new fiscal year.
But the financial statements for the closed years have to re-stated which is a big deal (especially if the company has gone public). You might want to check this with internal audit in either case before you do that in production
automatically and move the amount to The retained earnings account OB53
Thanks,

Balance carried forward for New GL

Hi Expert,
I would like understand about the balance carried forward for AP and AR in the New GL.
When executing the program in test run mode, user will download the balances and try to tie to the recon accts in trial balance. The openning balance generated by the program should tie to the last fiscal year closing balance. But apparently, it is not. There is a difference. And after checking, the difference seem to the opening balance that aready exist in the new FY.
So, when executing the carried forward program, is the system transferring only the difference ? New posting or items not yet carried forward ?
Thanks.
Angel.

Hi,
FAGLGVTR - Balance Carryforward (New) for GL carry forward
F.07 - Balance Carryforward for AR/AP carry forward
When you execute these programs system will carryforward all closing balance to subsequent year opening balance. Any postings happened in previous year will dynamically carried forward to subsequent year after executing this program. If you find any mismatch, you can again execute this program. It will not create any impact.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.

Balance Carried Forward problem

Hi Experts,
when running the Ledger for one range of posting period, the customeru2019s line items and cumulative balances are separated into 2 different reconciliation accounts.
While running for the next yearu2019s posting period , the Carry Forward Balances of Customers from previous year are aggregiated into one G/L account ,other account 0 balance is carried forwarded.
My program is fetching from table KNC1 which will have Balance carry forward of the two combined accounts which is going to 1st account.
Please let me know any table or FM where I can get Balance Carry Forward with passing Fiscal Year, Customer Code, GL Account_.( KNC1 table doesn't help in my case)_
Please let me know.
Thanks and Regards,
Kiran.

First look at [Fiscal Year Change Documents|https://websmp105.sap-ag.de/fiscalyearchange]
Then look for those BAPI
- BAPI_AR_ACC_GETCURRENTBALANCE Closing balance of customer account in current fiscal year
- BAPI_AR_ACC_GETKEYDATEBALANCE Customer account balance at a key date

Financial reporting and balance carry forward at Line item level

Hello
We are in the process of implementing a new GL and using it to create Balance Sheet and P&L statements in BW.
We have installed the new datasource for GL line items 0FI_GL_14 and loaded the data to a DSO. Installed the 0FI_GL_10 (totals infosource) as well.
Also we created a custom infocube on the line items DSO and want to use it to report against a Financial Statement Version. In order to do that we created a
virtual cube with the FM and added the necessary Financial Statement Item and other key figures in the virtual infocube.
Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports?
Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube? Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
How do we address the Balance Carry Forward on the Line items cube? Since the balance carry forward is done on totals only, and the cube I created is a detailed cube is it possible to carry forward balances at that level?
Also can someone let me know what is the best approach to create financial reports and give drill down capability at the document level?
Thanks in Advance
Raju Kosuru

Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports?
NO .. Its not.
Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube?
NO
Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
Yes.. SAP has delivered C10 for Totals and O14 for line items... No point in creating cube for line items i.e. on top of O14.
Balance carry forward can be done on totals only (that is how totals extractor _10 is designed), U can not do that on the Line items. Pls contact functional consultant for clarification
Best approach is RRI (Jump targets) for _10 report to _14 report to give drill down capability at the document level.

Customer line items with balance carry forward no opening balance

Hello FI Experts,
We have ticket where the user is using a Z* Report for Customer line items with balance carry forward. In 31.01.2007 user has posted some legacy data, latter he was executing this Z* report then user can see the values posted on the same day (31.01.2007) as line items. But he was executing the report on 01.02.2007 then he was not able to see the line item as well as the values posted on 31.01.2007 as opening balance as on 01.02.2007. But if we run the report as on 01.01.2008 then we are able to see the values which are carry forwarded as opening balances. Did anyone have worked on this type of scenario?
Requirement Here Is: The values that have been posted on 31.03.2007 which are still open line items should get displayed as opening balance as on 01.02.2007.
Thanks for helping on this issue.

Hi,
Any report will get data from Tables. Please check whether the table you have used to develop this report has opening balance.
Balance will be carry forwarded only when you run the balance carry forward program. Check whether this was run for the date you have specified. This can be done in the year end.
If you are checking in the middle of the year, then the balance will not be carry forwarded.

B. Radhika.

How to know whether balance carry forward has happened or not

How to know , whether balance carry forward has happened or not for a perticular GL account or for the company code as a whole?

If the account is a balance sheet account, you can merely look at the beginning balance for the same balance sheet account for the beginning of the next fiscal year FS10N. The beginning balance will equal the previous year's ending balance. Since this does not happen automatically, you will know that carry forward has not been done if a balance sheet account has no beginning balance in the following fiscal year.
If you are talking about For P&L GL accounts, you can check the acvitity in the retained earnings accounts to make sure that they have been updated for the P&L activity. You can identify the retained earnings account by looking at the master data for the account in the section "P&L statmt acct type" and pulling up the menu to see the actual retained earnings account number.
You can perform carry foward (GVTR) as many times as you want but normally once it has been ran, any postings to a previous fiscal year are automatically carried forward to the current year after that initial run.

Migration cockpit of new G/L- balance carry forward

Hi,
I have a question regarding the migration cockpit for new G/L. This a prepaid service of SAP and we are at test stage of migration cockpit. Before migration to new G/L, we have
posted year-end-postings t-code
F_TR_01 for Turkey , program RFSUMB00
for all P&L accounts and balance sheet
accounts for year 2007. Thus, all G/L
accounts give a balance of zero for
year 2007. Among the migration cockpit
activities ,do we still need to
execute transfer balance carry
forward step?
Kind regards,
Gökçen.

Hello Gokcen,
In your case, you can execute the ' Transfer balance carry forward' step of the GL Migration cockpit, for two reasons:
1. Since the migration cockpit moves data consistently from the classic GL database tables to the (New) GL database tables, this step needs to be executed.
2. The cockpit has steps synchronized so that there is no harm in executing a step that may seem redundant. So, better to execute the step than not

Internal Order Residual Balance carry forward.

Hello Team,
I am new dealing with Internal Orders, but I would like some guidance on the following:
1- We created an internal order las year in Nov. 2007, but when I did the balance carry forward it appeares that the residual balance for I/O did not transferred. I noticed that by running report S_ALR_87013019. At the time of a creation of PO the system wll give me a msg of budget exceeded. So how do I Carry forward the residual budget into the new year? the only way I was able to resolve the issue for now is by deactivating the I/O T-code T-code K032 but then this defeats the purpose of I/O
2- How do I set-up tolerance leve for each I/O. I would ilke for user to get a warning 10% before teh budget is about to be exceed and a hard stop 10% after it has ben execeed.
3- How can I configure I/O to send e-mails to managers when budget hits the tolerance level.
Thank You,
Frank F.

Hello and thank you for your reply. But I encoutered the following:
1- I already have budget profile set-up in OKOB
When I went to the menu path that you gave me
(Controlling> Internal Orders> Budgeting and Availability Control-->
Define Tolerance Limits for Availability Control)
Under availability control I only show activate- K030 and deactivate K032. I did not see Define Tolerance Limits for Availabilty control.
So I am still at a stand still. as to how to set-up Tolerance levels and how to assign it to I/O.
but, you answer the e-mail notification, we do not have workflow set-up so it will not work.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Frank

SEM: BCS Balance Carry Forward - Concept of Period 00

Gurus:
Wants to clear a concept with you. Say for example at the end of Period 12, 2006,
B/S Account 1: $100,000
Retained Earnings: $ 200,000
And only for the Period 1, 2007:
B/S Account 1: $200 (this is a periodic value)
And Net Profit: $15
Now lets assume the Retained Earnings of Current Month = RE Last Month + Net Profit.
Now if we dont do a Balance Carry forward after Period 12 close and before Period 1 close, I will be getting this only for Period 1,
B/S Account 1: $200
Retained Earnings: $15
But if we do a BCF after Period 12 close and before Period 1 close, I will be getting this only for Period 1,
B/S Account 1: $100,200
Retained Earnings: $200,015
So the BCS gets the value in period 00 and in backend add it to period 1 to give a cumulative period 1. Period 00 is a virtual place holder for this and not be available for reporting.
Am I correct?
Thanks for your time spent,
Regards,
Arpan

Thanks Eugene!
I am sure you are correct, but not able to understand the answer for my this question from the thread you mentioned. Was thinking of BCS & period 00 concept and trying to confirm my understanding. Sorry for not able to pick up the loose thread. Still open..
Sincerely,
Arpan

Balance Carry Forward issue

When doing a balance carry forward, the retained earning accounts carryforward is appearing under the P&L carryforward as opposed to the balance sheet process. Due to this, the retained earnings carryforward is only happening at the GL account + Co Cd level (and PCA if doing a PCA carry forward). WE need it to be in the Balance Sheet carry forward so it can be rolled over at a more detailed level (namely Trading partner, Transaction type etc).
Since retained earnings account is a Balance sheet account, it would be safe to assume that it would appear under the Balance Sheet carryforward process. However, because that is not happening and its being included in the P&L carryforward, manual reclass entries need to be posted with the correct code block elements.
Does anyone know if this is something maintained at a configurational level? Any help would be highly appreciated.

At the year-end, you "roll over" all of your P&L account balances to the retained earnings account (which is a balance sheet account) so you could show the P+L result in the balance sheet in the equity section. It is very logical that you see the retained earnings account in the P&L carryforward. In FS00, all of your P&L accounts have a retained earnings account type (X, e.g.) that is linked to a GL account (which is the retained earnings balance sheet account). Balance sheet accounts in FS00 are not assigned to any retained earnings acct type.

Balance Carry-Forward Problem for Subledger Accounts

Hi Experts,
We are doing the Balance Carry-Forward this Year 2012 and we are having problems with the amount to be carry-over of AP/AR Subledgers for this year. We checked the C/F Balance for G/L and there are no problems.
When I go to tables KNC1 or LFC1, I see items for both years 2011 and 2012 with a Balance Carry-over value. So during my Balance-Carry Over calculation during debug, it gets the value in KNC1 or LFC1 for 2011 then subtracted with the value in KNC1 or LFC1 in 2012. Why is this happening? Supposedly the 2012 entry on KNC1 or LFC1 should not exist yet right?
Also the entry on 2012 C/F Balance should only be under the 2011 Posting as the Document Entry has the Posting Period 12 2011. Right now the Posted Entry is in C/F Balance 2011 and 2012 as well. Is this how the Balance C/F Posting works?
Please enlighten me on how SAP works on this one.
Thank you so much!

Hi,
Why you need to do debugging for F.07?
If you have inconsistancy in your opening bal and closing balances, you can anyhow run the carryforward program again sequentially for 2010, 2011...for GL/AR/AP
Now check closing balance for FY 2011 and compare the same with opening bal of FY 2012.

Srinu

Balance Carry Forward

Hi Gurus,
We have just executed the balance carry forward to 2011 ( AP, AR, GL )
AP and AR - F.07
GL - FAGLGVTR
But after we have executed the balance carryforward, we can no longer view the actual line items of 2010 in some reports like KE5Z.
It says that no data was found. But if you check in FBL3n the data can be displayed.
Thanks,
Ellicec

We are operating two company codes. Company A and B. We followed the same steps in executing the Balance carry forward for both the company codes but in Company A we cannot display the actual line items.

BPC10NW: Error while running Balance Carry Forward

Hi,
I am trying to run 'Balance Carry Forward' (COPYOPENING) to copy opening balances from 2010.DEC to 2011.JAN.
The 'Opening Balances' package fails with "RUN_LOGIC:Cannot find document/directory" error.
The Copyopening.lgf is available and is been validated successfully.
We have refered to the below link but still the opening balances is failing with the same error.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/70657540-106d-2e10-8393-d702056767a4?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
Any suggestions?
thanks in advance,
M.S

Hi,
I have found similar issues with business rules in v10.
Can you just try to include this in Default logic and see if you can get it to run from a sent record. I know that this is not necessarily the nicest approach as you would normally like to run the package from DM, but I could not get certain things to run from DM.
If (like me) you can get it to run via Default, you could then trigger this by sending a dummy record to a dummy account.
I know it's not ideal but until this is fixed (I think it may be a bug) then this could be a solution.
Let me know if this helps at all.

Profit Centre Accounting Balance Carry Forward

Hi
I used report painter to create my own report to show the TB by profit centre. But the when you drill down on certain balance sheet account the actual line items date back to as far as 2004. Is it because we have done a balance carry forward? How can we correct this? If we do a balance carry forward at year-end will that correct the problem or can we do it now?
Points will be awarded.
Thanks

Dear Noz

F.07 customer balance carry forward doubts

Hi folks,
i have some concerns about T-code F.07.
1. Can we run this Tcode more than one time for a particular customer account for the same fiscal year? If it's allowed what will happen?
2. For the record in KNC1 table, if we run the F.07 twice, what will happen? will the system created two records, or the second run will update the first run. eg. the first carry forward have the amount 400. and after carry forward this is another invoice posted wit amount 100 with the posting day in the previous fiscal year, so will this 100 carry forward automaticly? or need to run the balance carry forward again for this customer ? and what's the records looks like in table KNC1 for these three phase?
thanks in advance

Mr. Dave,
If after the balance carry forward from the Previous year to the current year (whether AR/AP/GL) and an entry is passed in the previous year... if the balances are not getting updated, what could be the reason.
For example, if a GL Account has a balance of 400 and the balance is carried forward to next year. Then another 100 is passed to the same GL Account but in the previous year. Then according to you (and as per logic), the last year closing balance and the current year opening balance shall become 500. But, after posting this new entry of 100, both the balances remain at 400. and we are again having to do a balance carry forward. What could be the reason for this and how we can avoid this.

Siddique
