Legacy Trial Balance - best way to get totals into SAP

Hi Folks,
I have a query relating to the data migration of Finance items.
What is the best process for updating the new SAP system with the legacy trial balance?
Do you journal in the Opening Trial Balance posting sub ledger items to a Data Load account?
Load the AR / AP sub ledger items via the standard load routine RFBIBL00 which will in the case of customers Debit the customer account and Credit the Data Load Account / Vendors Credit the Vendor and Debit the Data Load Account.
Could anyone please give me a step by step guide as to how to go about this?
Thanks

Hi,
The upload of GL Balances have to split into several steps:
1. Normal GL Accounts: In this case line items are not required and totals are to be updated in SAP. This can be done using GL fast entry if the number is not too high.
2. Open Item Managed GL Accounts: All the open line items are required to be uploaded in SAP from Legacy in order to clear them. Hence, a LSMW / BDC program has to be developed to upload the line items.
3. Customer & Vendor Open Items: All open line items in Customer and Vendor Accounts have to be brought in into SAP. For this also a LSMW / BDC program needs to be developed and upload the line items.
4. Asset Accounting: In case asset accounting is implemented the individual balances of each asset (Gross Value and Accumulated Depreciation) have to be uploaded using transaction AS91. For this also you need to develop a LSMW / BDC program. Further, you also need to update the GL Accounts related to Asset Accounts with totals for each asset class T.Code OASV.
5. Further, material values are also to be updated - Material wise and this should tie with the GL Balance.
In addition, one more point to be noted is the use of Dummy / Conversion accounts for bringing in data from legacy to SAP. It is better to create five or six conversion accounts like for Assets, Liabilities, Revenue, Expenses, Materials etc. The sum of all these conversion accounts should be ZERO after completing the conversion. This way the reconciliation will become easy.
Thanks
Murali.

  • Panasonic HMC150-Best Way To Get Footage Into FCS2, etc.

    I've just ordered a new Panasonic AG-HMC150, to replace a Sony V1U.
    A couple of questions while I'm waiting for it to get here: First, for anyone using this camera with FCS2, what's the best way to import footage? Should I connect the camera with the SDHC card mounted to the Mac via USB, and then use Log and Transfer? Or, is it better to use a separate SDHC card reader? Also, is it better to copy the files off of the card to an external HD first, and then use Log and Transfer?
    Finally, in another forum I read that shooting in 720p (30 or 60?) yields better looking SD DVDs after using Compressor than 1080i; does anyone have any experience with this?
    My current workflow is to shoot in 1080i with my V1U, capture to Pro Res, edit, and export with Compressor. For a 1 hour SD DVD, around 12-15 hours in Compressor (using the frame controls)
    would be required.
    I'm not concerned about any speed increases; my goal is just to have the best looking letterboxed SD DVDs I can get. Thanks in advance for any advice anyone might have. And to Shane, David S., and others: thanks for helping me choose a new camera--it seems to be highly recommended everywhere.

    1. My practice is to copy the intact SDHC card to my media drive, and L/T from there. I copy is by write protecting the SDHC card first, and then mounting it with a SDHC compatible card reader.
    2. 720 is the sweet spot for this cam. I shot 720/60 and usually encoded from there.
    Hope this helps.
    Note: Always format the card in the cam first. ALWAYS

  • Best way to get .mp4 into FCP

    My camera captures in an mp4 format that is unreadable by final cut pro. These clips are in 720p. I have played around with visualhub, ffmpegx, and mpeg streamclip trying to find the best setting to convert these clips to a usable format.
    Converting to DV downscales the video, but is fairly quick.
    Converting to xvid diminshes the quality, but is failry quick.
    Converting to quicktime takes forever and produces enormous files.
    Converting to mpeg2 or mpeg4 with h.264 works okay, but FCP has a hard time handling these files quickly (ie I can't even use the jog dial)
    I have yet to find a setting or format that retains quality, is relatively quick to convert, and plays nicely with FCP. Anyone have any ideas?

    mpeg and h264 are delivery formats so that is why they don't work well in FCP. They were never designed to be used that way even though it happens. You best bet is to convert to ProRes. Excellent quality even over a couple of generations, decent bandwidth and file size requirement considering today's cheap and large hard drives. But if you still thing it's too large or too time consuming then I would say welcome to HD video. It's not as quick and easy as DV. If ProRes is too much then try DVCPRO HD. Smaller files, less bandwidth.

  • Best way to get text into li elements

    Originally I was using CSS to add text over a background in
    position. In IE7 it went haywire. I put the elements in an UL as LI
    but now I don't know how to get the text in there. I'm sure I'm
    overlooking the obvious. Much appreciated.
    http://hipnoticinc.com/howard/index.ul.html

    You can't do it this way at all. What will happen when the
    text is resized?
    Blammo.
    I'd make three divs, each with three images: an image slice
    for the top and
    bottom of the box, and a third as a repeating background for
    the middle.
    You can see a good and simple example of this here -
    http://www.murraytestsite.com/shadow.html.
    It shows how to use those three
    images.

  • What is best way to get video into my iMac for recording?

    I have a HD camera that outputs both HDMI and Component Analog video. What do I need to be able to get one of these signals into my iMac so I can record/edit it?

    What kind of media does it record to? iMovie will import many types of media and formats. I would be using the video from the media if possible not the Video output sigal.

  • Best way to get DVD into Front Row?

    I have a some non-copyrighted DVD's that I would like to get into Front Row without losing the image quality.
    Any suggestions?

    I just found a used hi8 camcorder locally with a dv connection so would I be better off
    1)transferring 8mm cassettes into imovie as dv
    or
    2) transferring 8 mm cassettes to my standalone dvd recorder and then ripping them on mac, i have done this with one and takes about 2 hours to rip and encode however when dragging the mov file after dvd conversion into imovie I am getting a reading that it will take up to a day to import into imovie.
    I know doing dv to mac is easier then #2 but this will cost me money since I would have to buy this 8mm recorder with a dv connection, will there be a difference of quality.
    My goal in the end is to have these 15 home movies that are on 8mm tapes on an ext hd edited and as big as possible or good as possible in quality, then I would probably do more serious edits to them and save as smaller files for viewing either via front row or maybe even burning to dvds.

  • Iphone 4s coming friday, what is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across.

    What is the best way to get the notes content from iphone 4 to 4s without doing a restore? i want the new phone to be totally new but not sure how to get notes content across. If I do a restore as I have when previously from one iphone to another it has shown (in settings, usage) the cumulative usage from previous phones so all the hours of calls on all previous iphones will be displayed even though its brand new. Anyone know how I can get my notes (from standard iphone notes app) to my new iphone 4s without restoring from previous iphone 4. Thanks for any help offered.

    First, if you haven't updated to iTunes 10.5, please update now as you will need it for the iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
    Once you're done installing iTunes 10.5, open it. Connect your iPhone to iTunes using the USB cable. Once your iPhone pops up right click on it. For example: an iPhone will appear and it will say "Ryan's iPhone."
    Right click on it and select "Backup" from the dropdown menu. It will start backing up. This should backup your notes.
    Please tell me if you have any problems with backing up.
    Once you backup and get your iPhone 4S, you must follow these steps. If you don't follow these steps, you will not be able to get your notes on your new iPhone 4S.
    Open up iTunes again then right click on your device (iPhone 4S). Once you do you will see a dropdown menu. It will say "Restore from Backup..." Select this and it'll ask for a backup, select it from the dropdown menu. For example "Ryan's iPhone - October 12, 2011." Pick that and it will restore to your backup. Do this when you get your iPhone 4S so you will not lose anything. Even though you're restoring, you're getting back, since you're getting the previous settings, notes, contacts, mail and other settings from your old iPhone. You'll still have Siri though! So, restore when you first get it. Also frequently backup your device, as it will be worth it. You can restore from a backup if something goes wrong or save your data for a future update.
    Once you do that, you should have your notes on your new iPhone 4S and iOS 5.
    Please tell me if you need any help.
    I hoped I answered your questions and solved your problem!

  • The best way to get 5.1 sound out of Mac Pro

    Hello. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but could someone recommend me the best way to get 5.1 sound of a Mac Pro. Since I don't require hi-fi -level sound, just simple directional audio for gaming and such, I wouldn't like to pour a lot of money to this. As I see it, I'd need an external sound card, internal PCI-E soundcard or speakers that have an optical input. I would like for the cost to be in two digits, euro or dollar.
    Any suggestions about hardware?

    Once again, the issue of 5.1 w/Apple comes up.
    Here is the bottom line.
    You will only get 5.1 audio if the following conditions are true:
    - You are using the OPTICAL output on your Mac
    - You are playing a DVD with a 5.1 soundtrack
    That's it. The simple truth is, that even if you have a Z-5500 setup (like I do), you still will not get 5.1 surround in ///any/// applications other then while playing a DVD.
    There is no way to get 5.1 out of a game on a Mac Pro. No matter how much money you throw at it. The support simply is not there. It is not a software issue, it is not a driver issue. It is the game developer's issue (sort of), and it is a //lack of hardware// issue.
    The complex truth, and I will attempt to explain, isn't that simple.
    Your Mac Pro or Macbook only has a single line-out, that supports 2 channels at the maximum. Optical audio will only handle 2 channels as well- it's the same signal (in two channels) on a different medium, basically.
    All PC soundcards that support proper 5.1 (save for a select few) have //multiple// line-out jacks for Front Left/Right, Center/Sub, and Rear Left/Right (3 plugs total for 5.1). Since your Mac/Mac Pro doesn't have this, you can't hook up a 5.1 speaker set and expect true 5.1.
    You do have optical audio, however, this only works in 5.1 when a Dolby Digital signal is piped through the optical cable.
    Dolby Digital works by encoding a 5.1 signal as a data stream, sending it to a receiver, where it is decoded and played back as 5.1 stereo. DVD's have this audio pre-encoded on the disk.
    If you wanted 5.1 output from your games, they'd need to ether have the sound/audio data encoded as Dolby 5.1, or support encoding on the fly to take a 5.1 signal, encode it, and pipe it out the optical audio plug. Xbox360 does this, because they've licensed the technology from Dolby- as have the game developers.
    Unfortunately, none of the developers for Macintosh gaming have yet to include live Dolby 5.1 encoding (I think Doom 3 had a beta patch that did- I could be wrong).
    If the game doesn't support the above feature, then you only get basic 2 channel audio.
    *Do not buy a Fireface 800.*
    This is a professional audio interface (like an external soundcard). While it supports 5.1 output via 6 individual outputs, you need SPEAKERS that have +built in amplifiers+ (called a Studio Monitor). Not just one amplifier- all the speakers have it built in and take a balanced stereo input.
    You're looking at $1300 for the Fireface 800, and another $200 per speaker. This is not cheap, is not meant for gaming, and is not consumer grade equipment. It's pro audio, designed for Logic 8 and similar.
    Even if you did spend the money, trust me, I'd know... I have a 5.1 setup running through an Apogee Ensemble (a $2000 "soundcard"), and I do not get 5.1 support from Quake 4, C&C 3, or any other game. I only get 5.1 surround from my audio production in Logic 8.
    To recap, since this has been asked many times- and I don't want you wasting your money here (just trying to be helpful!)...
    *There is no simple or cost-efficient way to get 5.1 from your Mac, other then while playing a DVD movie.*
    I would highly recommend that you buy a very good pair of 2.1 speakers with a Sub woofer. Maybe even a pair that takes an optical input for audio. If you really want to spend the money to *watch a DVD in surround sound,* then you can... And it'll work wonderfully, but gaming will not give you surround sound at all.
    *Again- There are no games out that support 5.1. Just because you technically support Dolby 5.1, doesn't mean the applications are aware of it and can utilize the 5.1 surround.*
    Edit: I may have neglected to also mention that the Firewave unit will support 5.1 properly through 3 separate plugs (much like a PC soundcard does), however the only game I am aware of that supports this is Unreal Tournament 2003 for Mac (or was it 04?), with an experimental patch for 5.1 via OpenAL. Last I heard, it worked okay, but crashed occasionally.
    Most of the other games out there just don't support 5.1, period (probably due to the lack of hardware on the Mac computers from the factory).

    Find My iPhone is good for misplaced iPhone but not good for thief and it was never meant to be.
    You chance of getting it back is very small.
    There are a few things you can try.
    Try remote lock/wipe your iPhone through Find My iPhone.

  • What's the best way to get user testing of our app (we're based in the UK)

    Hi all.
    We've just developed our first app for Palm and would really like to get some feedback from Palm users (our app allows users to take photos and send them as real printed postcards. We'd be very happy to give users free postcards in exchange for feedback).
    The problem we have is that Palm users are pretty sparse in the UK. We've found that user testing with non-Palm users becomes handset testing rather than app testing. We have to teach them how to use Palm ("Where's the back button?") and so the testing mainly focuses on the particularities of Palm rather than our app. Plus, we don't benefit from the user being able to compare to other Palm apps.
    Any advice on the best way to get feedback from Palm users? Especially as they'll need to download the SDK and install our app using it in order to get it onto their phones.
    If any of the users of this forum are interested in giving the app a go and sending us feedback, I'd love to send you the IPK and then chat. Just send me an email using [email protected]
    Our app is available for Pixi+, Pre+ and Pre2.
     Thanks,
     Freddie.
    Post relates to: Pixi Plus p121ueu (SFR)

    Hello freddie:
    Welcome to the Palm Forums. Thank You for the offer. I highly suggest offering it up
    to our many enthusiasts on Twitter as a beta with the #webos hashtag or joining
    the Precentral.net community and list it in a topic there, homebrew beta. You would
    get better beta response if you Package your app and put it in an ipk to simplify
    the install.
    Hope that helps... Best of luck with your app!

Are you deliberately excluding PC owners so we cannot use ituens on our computers???? I have selected a community but have no idea what community I should be working with. Can somone explai these communities to me? Also. you don't allow much time to go thru the sign up process. I had to start over SEVERAL times as you kept timing me out. Jesus...when people are signing up for the first time, we have no idea of the questions that will be asked. Give us a break and give us time to sign up. Not everone is disability free and able to go thru your process quickly...you are NOT user friendly. You should be for people who are wanting to join your community. I used to want an Apple product but now that  I have had first hand experience with your web page, I think I will probably stay away from Apple products. VERY DISAPPOINTING

  • Starting Fresh With iTunes 9.0.1...best way to get music back in/import?

    Had some library troubles with iTunes 9, and decided to do a clean install of not only the program, but of Snow Leopard itself. I was waiting on an iTunes update to come out before I decided to re-load my library in, since I didn't want to risk repeat problems (I've always been one of those bleeding edge-ers, and this is the 1st time I've ever had a problem/held back...guess I learned my lesson). 9.0.1 is out and seems to address the problems I'd been having, but I caught the "start fresh" bug and I want to start over with iTunes. No playlists, play counts, etc need to be saved.
    I do have a full backup of my previous system (thanks SuperDuper!), and I'm wondering what the best way to get all of my music back into iTunes is.
    -Do I use the Finder to simply drag the contents of my old "iTunes Music" folder into the new "iTunes Media" folder?
    -Do I drag the whole folder and drop it onto the iTunes window? (I'm worried this method won't put iPhone apps, ringtones, audiobooks and podcasts in the right place).
    -Do I use the import function?
    Notes: prior to making the backup, I did upgrade to/select iTunes Media Organization
    I did see THIS article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451 but it says it's old and I wonder if it applies to iTunes 9.
    Thanks for any help!

    You might want to check that your certificate that you made has been applied to iTunes.app
    try this code in Terminal"
    codesign -dvvvv /Application/iTunes.app
    Does the name on the certificate match the one you created?
