GL Account Balance Difference

Hi All,
We recieve GL Account Balances from some other system (different SAP landscape) and the balances in the file are compared to the GL Account Balances in our system. For this purpose, we are using a standard BAPI :->BAPI_GL_GETGLACCCURRENTBALANCE. This BAPI calculates the current GL Balance in our system and the program them matches both the balances (one in the coming feed and other calculated by the BAPI).
Starting this year, the BAPI is not performing correctly. It only calculates the period balance and does not add the cumulative balance of the previous year and hence there is a difference in the GL Account Balances in both the system since the feed coming in contains the total balance till date (i.e. Period Balance + Cumulative balance of last year).
Can somebody suggest another BAPI that adds both the Period Balance + Cumulative balance of last year for all the GL Accounts till date.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi
As the documentation for that BAPI showing the ending balance for the fiscal year. As you can see the balances for the B/S accounts only & if those balances carried forward to the current year - then it should show the total cumulative balance. Check whether balance carryforward program done or not.
Below is the help :
Short text
Closing balance of G/L account for current year
Functionality
The method provides the ending balance of a G/L account for the current fiscal year.
The user decides whether the balance should be provided in the transaction currency or the company code currency. Exceptions are G/L accounts kept in various transaction currencies. In this case, only the company code currency can be used.
The system provides the balance and currency determined.

Balance differences in FBL3N &FS10N for same G/L account

Hi all,
I am facing the problem in differences in balances for bothfs10n & fbl3n for same g/l account.This difference not for a single account total 9 accounts are there.what i observed was they started sap in 2000 for some g/l accounts i found balance in fs10n for all 12 periods in the year 2000 but there were no line items.in fbl3n also no balances for 2000 year.but they carry forwarded balance to 2001and so on up to 2007.
If i go for balances in fs10n and fbl3n as of 2007 the balance is different from fs10n.
In fs10n when i click on lineitem display in total balance colomn = all items for 01/01/2000 to 31/12/2007 balances in fbl3n.
when I click on line item in fs10n incumulatibalance colomn <>(is not equal to) all items for 01/01/2000 to 31/12/2007 balances in fbl3n.
Pls help me on this issue they were starting auditing for 2007 so they found the differences.
Thanks to all

Dear Chandra,
Kindly check for inconsistencies, if any through the program SAPF190. This report will help you to know the status. If there are no inconsistencies, please look for the following :
- "Open item management" or "Line item display" in the G/L
master check boxes, if handled improperly, read the documentation of the report RFSEPA01.
- If this is not the reason, another one could be the report SAPF011 which you might not have run for the respective G/L accounts.
- If this does not help, please ensure if you have activated the New GL functionality. If so, you have to upgrade the Serive Patch levels through required SAP Notes.
Hope this information helps.
If all of the above does not help, I suppose, you can raise a ticket with SAP under inconsistencies component.

Difference in asset report & g.l account balance

Hi All,
we have 3 assets in assets report (AW01 & S_ALR_87011994) whose balance is not matching from gl account used for asset posting in AO90.
Could you please suggest how there can be difference in asset report & gl account balance.
Regards
Deepak

Actually you need to analyze this scenario deeply as there are so many reasons why the assets are not matching with the GL account.
1. Legacy assets
     if this is a legacy asset make sure that the GL account balance is equal to the asset balances as of the transfer year
     to do this you can compare AHS (AR02) and GL balance (FAGLB03) as of the year of transfer
     if there is a discrepancies between the GL and asset, then there is a problem during migration
2. Manual Adjustment
     Make sure that there is no manual adjustment posted on the GL accounts as manual adjustments or postings will only reflect to GL and not in asset
     to check this go to GL line item report and analyze all transactions and make sure that there is no adjustment posted on asset GL accounts.
3. Human Error
     It is possible that you are comparing values in asset history sheet to your gl accounts not correctly.
     to make sure check again the mapping of your asset classes to account determination and then to the GL accounts.
Thanks!

Difference in GL account balance & Balance showing in Trial Balance

Hi,
Actually we found that in balance of a Gl account in FBL3N and balance in FS10N as well as in F.08 ( Trial Balance ) not matched with each other.
Can anybody suggest how can it be possible.
I have checked there are two documents which are affecting the Gl account balance in FBL3N but not affecting the same in Trial Balance due that there are diffference in Amount showing in Trial Balance and Amount showing in Gl account.
Pls suggest the reason.
Thanx,
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
After running the T/Code F.08 i.e. for Trial Balance if there is a difference then run the T/Code F.03 - GL Account Summary. This report will show you the GL's because of which there is a difference in the Trial balance.
Also if you find particular GL who is showing the differences in the Line Items" (i.e. FBL3N report) and in GL Balance (May be FS10N - Master Data) then see the Master data of that GL in T/Code - FS00 - to find out the changes done in that GL . One of the change could be "Line Item Display". If we disselect this option then transactions get posted but will not get reflected in FBL3N (Line item display) . Final Amount (of FBL3N) will not match with the GL Balance (FS10N or Master Record)
We are also facing same problem. Finding the solution (ABAP Program) to identify the entries made in between the disselection & again selection of "Line Item Display".
If you know the solution pls. share
Assign the points if useful

If you are using ECC use T. code FAGLGVTR - Balance Carryforward (New)
F.07 - Balance Carryforward for Vendor/customers
then only it shows the correct picture.
when FBL5N is line item report it is no way relavent to balance carry.
this may solve your problem

Difference between G/L Account Balance and PCA Balance

Friends,
After executing KE5T for the period 6 we are seeing a difference in the G/L a/c balance figures and the profit center figures for 2 balance sheet accounts. In one case the PCA balance figures are greater than the G/L a/c balance figures and vice versa in the 2nd case.
What is the procedure to be followed in such cases? Is there any standard program that can identify the postings that are causing the differences?
Please confirm at your earliest.
Thanks & Regards,
Sameer S. Gupte

Eli,
Thanks for the reply.
However, the note 126910 specifically mentions that it is not to be used for balance sheet account balances transferred to PCA using 1KEK.
Can you please advise about reconciling differences between PCA and balance sheet accounts.
Thanks & Regards,
Sameer S. Gupte

GL balances differences between Year end closing and opening balances

Hi friends,
One GL account balances showing differences between year end closing & year opening balances.
Example: 2006 closing balance is 250000 $
2007 opening balance is 150000 $
difference is 100000 $ . why should coming like this. already completed balances carryforward (F.16) in 2006 & 2007 year.
any programe for this solution ?
One more point is just 2 days back i posted 2 entries for 2006 year equal to 100000 $ . after this entries shall we need go for F.16 (carry forwarded balances).
please do the needful. It is very urgant issue.
Raj

HI,
There shouldn't be any more postings to a GL Account once Balance carry forward has been executed.
If postings have been made then you should execute the Balance carry forward again, otherwise you will see difference in opening and closing GL balance (as mentioned by you).

GL Balance difference in FS10N and FAGLB03

Hi,
I have an issue, GL account balance for an inventory account is not same when compared bettween FS10N and FAGLB03
I checked the totals table GLT0 and FAGLFLEXT and both have different balances.
I have performed Balance carry forward using
FAGLGVTR
F.07
F.16
Please advice, how can we rectify the difference.
Thanks

hi
FBL3N transaction is used for GL account line item display for Open items , clered items or all items and the total balance of the all items should be equal to the balance of the same GL through transaction FS10n which is using to display balance of GL.
FAGLB03 is used for balance display of GL if you have new GL activated. Blance of the same is as same as FBL3N through all items total for the GL. But, FS10N (tableGLT0) can still be updated - if you have Classic GL activated.

GL Account balances in F.08

Dear Friends,
We are working on 4.7v.
Using T.code F.08 - Gl Account balances, I entered
Chart of Accounts,
Company Code,
Fiscal year
Business area
Reportng period
There is a huge differences in the totals of debit and credit amount and total credit balance showing huge diffence amount.
Please let me know, how to check the dfferences of gl balances and since business area is also there, how to check the differences based on businessd area?
Thanks and regards
Sridhar

Hi,
My suggestion is to check whether the debit & credit is tallying by either giving the Business Area or the Company Code.
If it is tallying, then you will have to extract the balances business area wise/ company Code wise & then to locate the difference. This may be because of inter-company tranasactions.

Amit

KE24 Report comparison with FI GL account balance report

Hi Friends,
I'm comparing KE24 transaction code COPA actual line item balance with FI GL account balance report, but I'm not able to match it/not sure how to match it.
Could you please let me know how to compare these two reports mainly to know whether all the balances in FI are moving to COPA properly. Also please let me know how the values are being extracted for this KE24 transaction code.
Thanks & Regards,
Dwarak

This comparison can only be done with a thorough knowledge of the config that was made to transfer information into the COPA system. It is COMPLETELY implementation specific. It generally is grouped into several areas - Revenue, Cost of goods sold @standard, cost of goods sold period based adjustments (E.g. variances) and overheads.
Here is some VERY broad guidelines:
Revenue method will depend on whether you are using "vanilla" sales of inventory from SD, or whether you use resource related billing in PS. Further you will need to know which condition types post to which GL Accounts, and to which value fields.
Cogs method will depend on the sames differences, also whether you are using material master price (VPRS), or whether you are using standard cost estimate. If you are using standard cost estimate, you need to know the cost components used, and which value fields they post to.You also need to know which GL account(s) is posted to. This is based on the valuation class in table 30. Alternatively, for resource related billing you have to know how the DIP profile was set up.
You need to know how your production variances are posted, your purchase price variances and your overhead variances on production cost centres.
Overheads can be posted directly from FI, from MM, or settled from an internal order or project. Alternatively, they are assessed from cost centres, to PA using assessment rules.
You also need to know whether there are any statistical value fields, which should be excluded from the reconciliation.

FSI0 - Drill Down Reports for Account Balance Analysis

Any orientation on this issue will be greatly appreciated.
These are the steps I did to create a new Drill-Down Report for my customer.
1. Created and modified a new Form based on the Form for the Financial Statement Analysis 0SAPBLNCE-04 (Periodic Actual vs Actual) using Transaction FSI4 (Create) and FSI5 (Change)
2. Created and modified a new Report with reference to the Form I just created using transactions FSI1 (Create) and FSI2 (Change)
3. I select "Expand: Completely" to see all Account Balances
3. All the totals match between the Original Standard Report and the new report I just created.
4. On both reports, when I select a Balance and then select the GOTO \ Line Items to get the list of documents I get the following results:
==> Most of the cases (I would say probably 80% of the cases) the Account Balance I selected matches with the Total of Line Items that is displayed when I do the GOTO \ Line Items
==> In some cases (just a few) the Account Balance does not match at all with the totals of Line Items that is displayed when I do the GOTO \ Line Items
Can somebody explain why ? Shouldn't the totals match all the time since I am specifically selecting a balance to see all its line items? Where are the missing line items?
Since these are just a few cases my customer is okay with it but he would like to hear a logic explanation why the Account Balance and its line items do not match on this report.

Hello,
There is a possibility that you have activate line item display for some of the accounts at a later stage. Meaning that earlier postings were not be shown for the earlier postings but only totals will be made available. Therefore, obviously there is bound to be difference between line item report and totals report.
You need to identify which accounts are being changed with line item display at a later stage.
In case if you forget to keep GL Line item display for an account, but the posting are already made the following steps you would required to get the line item display retrospectively.
1. Note that you are NOT required to make the balance of that GL account to ZERO. Please do not confuse with Open Item Management.
2. Put the check box line item display for the account in FS00. Make sure you are entering right company code.
3. Block the account for posting in COA Segment and Company Code Segment in FS00
4. Go to SA38 and run program RFSEPA01 (Give correct GL Account and Company Code)
5. Now, remove the block you kept on the GL Account in FS00.
This will reset the line item display retrospectively.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Regards,
Ravi

GL Balances Difference

Hi All,
There is a GL balance difference in the Cenvat Payable account for the fiscal year 2007.
The balance in the FAGLB03 (GL Balance) and the balances in the FBL3N(Line item display) are different.
The FBL3N, GL line item balance is showing as u201C0u201D, whereas the GL Balances in FAGLB03(FS10N) is showing the credit balance of Rs. 22676/- as on 31-03-2008.
I believe that there should always be the same balances reflecting in both the Transactions.
Any one please help me in this regard as to why and how these differences are existing.
Thanks and regards,
SAP Prod

Hi,
Also find the additional information as below.
Option:1
Check the following notes:
Note 1168430 - FS10N: Display 'classic' balances when new G/L is active II
Note 1021174 - FS10N: Drilldown -> differences despite Note 970096
Option:2
please check your support pack level. If your support pack level is greater than or equal to ten(sp>=10) then follow the below procedure in your dev/quality client.
Execute the t.code;FAGLF03 : It will give you the list of documents not updated properly to NewGL
To solve these issues, you will have to run RGURECGLFLEX in update mode, and it will post the documents to the NewGL and also update the balances accordingly for the accounts in the document for the respective year and periods
Also check the OSS note 878281.
all the best
