Alt Chart of Accounts: Change of GL Assignment

Hello Experts,
We have implemented Alternate Chart Of Account (CoA). Balances have been posted. Now during the middle of the Fiscal Year, Government has changed the numbering of few of the local chart of account numbers.
SAP gives error message and does not allow to change the Alt G/L assigned in the master data of the main CoA.
Is there any way out to change the G/L assignments, some SAP program to run or likewise?
We don't want to create new G/L accounts in the corporate CoA in this case and redo the new assignment.
Please let me know if you have come across such a situation.
Regards,
Kshitij J

Hi,
Try this:
remove the COUNTRY COA assigned
replace Alt G/l ...
Again asssign COUNTRY COA
If it helps then pl points as a way to say thanks..

DTW for Chart of Account changes

Experts,
I need to use the DTW for importing changes and new accounts to the standard Chart of Accounts.
When I run the DTW, nothing is imported, even though this is successfull.
Here is teh fields that I have populated:
Header: Code, Name, Cashaccount, ActiveAccount, FaterAccountKey, Account type, AcctCurrency, ForeightName, FormatCode.
Values: 1, COANew1, tNO, tYES, Cash and Equiv, at_Other, $, 12345, 111111110100101.
What do I need to populate in the Code field? Is this different when I update or import a new account?
Thanks,
Marli

Gordon,
Thanks, this worked for the new accounts.
The update of old accounts still give an error "Cannot find this object..." I believe this has to do with the 'Code' field, as there is a note in the cell:
"This field serves as the key of the record in SAP BusinessOne system and it is mandatory. This field is used as a reference in the child template. When adding new data, the value of this field is user defined (e.g., 1,2,3, etc.). When updating existing data, the value of this field should be the real record key in SAP BusinessOne."
What is the real record key in SBO?

I have not created any assignment of company code to controlling area, plant, sales organization, etcu2026 While removing this it says Reset company code data before changing the chart of accounts. Screenshot is attached.

Should I delete company code & then retry the same?
Please suggest how to reassign chart of accounts to company code as no data like customer, vendor or sales transaction is made.
Pl advise solution THANKS

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the answer. I have not copy any company code to my co. code 4040. Just as new entry I created 4040 company code. In Org object Check everything about table found OK. No seprate G/L A/C is created by me for co. code 4040
To see if company code is productive means Active? In "Enter Global Parameter? Tab-->Cost of Sales Accounting ACTV is 2. When I tried to make it Inactive (Blank), it is not allowing me and showing error msg as below.
You do this in Customizing as follows: Cross-Application Components -> Bank Directory -> Change Message Control.
I checked this but asking for Application Area to put & I do not know hwat area I should put.
Am I going right as suggested by you?
I had deleted G/L accounts earlier but Sales Actg is active so sould not go ahead.
As per Venkat I had decided to delete company code, But I want to solve without deletion.
I am SD guy so asking many Qs of FICO as I am learning now.
Thanks
Reason why you are not able to delete the assignment is that, you have already created GL accounts for the COA. I hope you have not done any posting using those GL accounts.
First of all please make that you company code is not set as productive. if set prodictive you will not be able to delete any master data. So please remove the productive check(if any).
Then you try to delete the GL account that you have created for the COA. once you delete the GL account the system might ask for the deletion of the account group. After that you should be able to change the assignment.

Country chart of account

Hi experts,
please tell how to create country chart of account, and how to assign where do all posting and where we see all transaction and business process, same group chart of account where i have to make ,see all process.
thanks
Arti singh

Definition:
Country Chart of Account is created similar to operating chart of account in the transaction Code : OB13. It will also have set of Account Groups and GL Accounts created seperately.This is normally created based on the local statutory/reporting requirements and standard operating chart of account is used globally.
Assignment:
After creating a Country Chart of Accounts you need to assign the same to a company code at the 'company code Global Data' in the Country Chart/Accts field.
Financial Accounting -> Global Parameter for Company Code -> Enter Global Parameter
Once you do this assignment while creating a Account for the operating chart of account system will prompt you to enter the Alternative Account Number in the Control Data Tab in T.code FS00.
Note: you can assign one Country COA Account to morethan one Operating COA Account.
Usage:
Once you link the operating chart of account and countr chart of account using Alternative Account No. system will allow you see report both at Operating COA and Country COA.

Assign chart of account to a new company code

Dear all,
I have created a new company code in system(copy an existing company code data). When I am going to a new chart of account to the new company code, system display an error message as follows:
Reset company code data before changing the chart of accounts
Message no. FC140
Diagnosis
You have selected a different chart of accounts for a company code.
You must, however, reset the company code-specific data for the old chart of accounts beforehand.
Procedure
If you really want to allocate a different chart of accounts to the company code, first of all reset
the company-code specific data for the old chart of accounts.
First of all you must, if it exists, reset the transaction data for this company code.
Finally, carry out the resetting of the company code-dependent G/L account master data
(without the general master data).
Note:
When dealing with large quantities of data, resetting the master data or transaction data can be very
time-consuming. In this case, it is advisable to schedule the running of these reports as a batch run.
Do anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
I think you have copied the co. code using Trcode , When you have copied the co code all the gl master records from the source co code is also coiped to to the target company code. these gl masters use the COA(Chart of accounts) used by the source co. code.
If you want to assigna new COA now to the target co code then you have to delete all the gl accounts from this new co code you can do this by executing TR Code OBR2. Select the gl accounts, Select the check box for "with general master data" and provide the company code and execute. Now you can assign a new COA to this new company code

Change chart of accounts in Controlling area

Hi all,
How can I change the chart of accounts in controlling area?
I've already changed chart of accouns in FA CoCode Global data, and I have to change chart of accounts in controlling area; In OKKP chart of accounts is in display mode

I get the message; where I have to assign Chart of acc to Controling area in OKKP is not possible
Differing charts of accounts: INT - CAXX
Message no. KT299
Diagnosis
The system makes consistency checks during assignment of a company code to a controlling area as part of assignment control.
The same checks take place if assignments already exist and you change the basic data in the controlling area, or if you define the controlling area and company code as a 1:1 structure.
If the check finds an error, the system cannot execute the function ("Assign" or"Change basic data"). If you do not maintain the required data for the consistency check (such as currency, chart of accounts, or fiscal year variant in the company code), this also results in an error message.
Chart of accounts INT, controlling area XX01, does not agree with chart of accounts CAXX, company code XX01.
System Response
Processing is terminated.
Procedure
Ensure that the same chart of accounts is assigned to controlling area and company code.

Change of Chart of Accounts

Hi SAP Experts
I hereby would like to know what the posibility is to change a company Chart of Accounts.
The company was linked to a Chart of Accounts and operated for couple of months (year). As this Chart of Accounts are also assigned to other company codes, the said company wants it own (new) Chart of Accounts.
Is it possible for a company that was operative to change its Chart of Accounts?
Theo

Hi,
We cannot change simply the Chart of Accounts. There is mandatory process to follow.
If you are trying to change system will prompt you error message, reset the transactionl data.
1. Create a seperate Client with the help of Basis People
2. Copy the Transactional Data in separate client.
3. Now reset the data in Original Client
4. Now change the COA.
5. Now copy/migrate the Transactional Data to Old Client.
Note: Before resetting the data, actual Transactional Data should be copied in to another client without loosing your Business Data.
Thanks

Changing chart of account by DI API

Hi,
Is this possible to change a Chart Of Account by the DI API and if so what does it do. Does it change it everywhere that the old chart of account was used ?

ChartOfAccounts is a business object that represents the General Ledger (G/L) accounts in the Finance module.
This object enables you to:
Add a G/L account.
Retrieve a G/L account by its key.
Update a G/L account.
Remove a G/L account.
Save the object in XML format.
Source table: OACT.
Object Model
Remarks
The Chart of Accounts is an index of all G/L accounts that are used by one or more companies. For every G/L account there is an account number, an account description, and information that determines the function of the account.
You have to assign a Chart of Accounts to every company. This Chart of Accounts becomes operative after you carry out posting for these businesses in your daily business.
After choosing the most suitable Chart of Accounts, you can customize your choice by adding, adjusting, and changing. However, once posting were made to Chart of Accounts you cannot delete it.
Mandatory fields in SAP Business One: Code or FormatCode (when working with account segmentation), and FatherAccountKey.
To display the form in the application:
Select Financials --> Chart of Accounts (or Edit Chart of Accounts).
In the SDK I don't se any mention if the change is made in all the documents that were posted, I mean, its important to be sure that if I change the COA that it effectively changes it everywhere.

Hi adamsfly,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you changed your email address and iCloud is looking to sign in with the old Apple ID email. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Is it possible to change the chart of accounts in Oracle Financials?

Dear Colleagues,
Is it possible to change the chart of accounts in Oracle Financials?
Thank you in advance.
Andrey

It is not an easy change. Oracle typically recommends against it but sometimes company structure or processes change so much that you are forced to do it.
Take a look at http://www.vantagesolutions.com/media/SCOUG_May_2004.pdf as well as http://www.erpstuff.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6381.
If you google "change oracle chart of accounts", you will find some more hits as well. This is a big project.
If you other business reasons to do a reimplementation, then changing COA as part of that will be very easy.
For a lot of companies debating between reimplementation and upgrade, a need to change COA becomes the last straw in favor of reimplementation.
Hope this helps,
Sandeep Gandhi
