Balance carry forward not happening for new entity

Hello Gurus,
We added mid 2009 a new entity to be consolidated.
The balance carry forward assigns the last year results to retained earnings, this is the same accross all entities.
When executing the task in the monitor, there is no error message but it does no work, results end-up on a difference elimination item.
For all other entities, it works fine.
I wonder if there is a configuration that I overlooked.
Many thanks for you inpput.
Alex-

So you are saying that for all other consolidation units, the Balance CarryForward (BCF) was successful?
but for only one unit is was not successful?
- I suggest to you that one of the following has occurred;
1. there is no data against the balance sheet items for that unit (go to totals records to confirm YTD balance last year for all Balance Sheet items for that cons unit)
2. there is only data against a specific item that has been set to carryforward to the "elimination" item that you mentioned (check the BCF items to be carried forward confgiuration)
3. there is only data against Balance Sheet items that have been configured NOT to be carried forward (check the BCF config)
4. you have configured some items incorrectly as Item Type; Income Statement or Statistical instead of Balance Sheet.
5. You have missed the consolidation unit from the hierarchy for p1, 2010 (please also check the combinations if it is a matrix consolidation unit) so the BCF is not running for that unit at all
Checking these 5 should get you closer to the answer

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.

Thanks in Advance.
Saravanan(EKS).

Hi Saravanan,
Kindly check the following steps for automatic batch determination.
1. First check the material is maintained with batch in the warehouse management.
2. Maintain new entry for search procedure for batch determination with the new created doc type.
3. Maintain new entry for automatic batch determination for sales order or automatic batch determination for delivery ( This depends on the business process of our client, whether they want to determine the batch with sales order or at the delivery level. check this and make new entry)
4. Create Batch using T.code MSC1N with proper date of manuf. and SLED.
5. Create Batch Search Strategy using T.code VCH1 with proper strategy type.
6. Maintain stock with active batch. check this with t.code LS26 or LS24.

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.
Best Regards,
Madhu

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

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

GL balance carry forward special period 13 to new fiscal year and Rec acct

Hi,
would like to seek for your advice as below question/problem.
a) User now is doing the year end closing. Normally the closing is up to the period 12 and for the purpose of track the adjustments made by the management and auditors user post to period 13 2008 from the pervious financial year. Our concern is when perform the GL Balance carry forward to new fiscal year which is 2009 does the system carry forward the GL adjustment figure from period 13 to the new fiscal year on top of that when we perform the GL balance carry forward to new fiscal year 2009 and later on find out there is an audit adjustment that need to done and user post in the period 13 fiscal year 2008 can the adjustment auto post to the new fiscal year?
b) Can we change the Rec account in the vendor master as currently user need to change the vendor from difference Rec account which from joint venture to subsidiary account code? If involve the SPRO configuration how where should we configure? After we change the configuration does all the posting from one Rec account subsidiary will auto post to another Rec account Joint venture?
Kindly advice.

Hi,
Thank you for the prompt reply.
a)could you provide the path/T-code to view the vendor master activity screen layout configuration field status for reconciliation account should be Optional.
b)Beside,what the impact of change the reconciliation account from one to another? It is neccesary/must to do the balance sheet adjustment for change the reconcilation account?
Can we post the balance through the manual JV (F.02)with the document type is ZD(Debit Note) to post the balance of old reconciliation account to the clearing account and then change of the reconciliation account to the new account then reverse the posting of the JV? By doing so what is the impact in the system? In this scenarion do we need to do the balance sheet adjustment?
c) You mention balances from the old recon will not be posted to the new reconcilation account unless I do a balance sheet adjustment it is mean after I run the balance sheet adjustment the balance from the old reconcilation account will auto post to the new reconcilation? What other impact will effect the system?
d) If the company never run the balance sheet adjustment before and due to the scenerion mention above they run the balance sheet adjustment for the first time what are the impact in the system for the company that only have one business area and also for the company which have more than one business area?
e) What are the prerequisite step/configuation/setting need to be setup in order to run the balance sheet adjustment as the company perviously never run the balance sheet adjustment before? Kindly provide reference/document/guide.
e) Change of reconcilation account does it related/impact to the account group of vendor master?

Hi,
When the balances are carried forward, the net of all values of the P&L G/L Accounts are transferred to the Retained Earnings Account. There is no real accounting posting done in the system for this. But when you go to the new year, the P&L Accounts are shown with zero opening balance as their balances have got transferred.
For Balance Sheet Accounts, the balances have to be carried forward to the new year and for P&L they have to be set to zero. Hence the balance carry forward transfers the net of all values in P&L G/L Accounts to the retained earnings account which is a balance sheet account.
This values can be seen in G/L Balance Report as carried forward values for the retained earning G/L.
Hope this helps.

Balance Carry Forward in New GL - Substitute RMVCT

Hi,
We have assignet the Consolidation Scenario to our main ledger in New GL, so that the field RMVCT is part of the FAGLFLEXT table.
We would like to have a unique movement code in the balance carry forward, for example F00.
We can map any filled movement code to a specific carry forward movement code, that's fine (table T856 allows that in the definition of the movement code).
But, and that is the issue, for balance sheet account without movement code, the balance carried forward has also no movement code, and I don't see the way to substitute the value to get F00 also for these account (there is no BSEG entry for the balance carry forward operations).
Thanks for an anwser.

Balance Carry Forward with New GL

hi,
I am trying to do balance carried forward using the new GL and I expect to see retained earnings splits by profit center and segment. I was able to run the program and see the revenue and expenses roll into Retained Earnings account split <u>by profit center</u>, however it did NOT split by segment. The balance in retained earnings account shows split by profit center with BLANK segment.
I have setup my configuration as:
- Turn on the business scenario to use Partner Profit Center and Partner Segment
- Specify the account range in the document split. I specified retained earnings account as balance sheet account
- I have setup segment as mandatory field in the document splitting configuration
- I setup the activate the document split and setup default profit center/segment
Can you tell me if I am missing something in the configuration or there is something wrong with the system.
Thanks, Tony

Hi ,
You can't run for One GL but I believe You can either for Balance sheet or P& Laccounts .
Otherwise there is no harm in running GL balance carry forward for all GLs .
SAP says you can carry forward balances as many time

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.
Regards
Siddique
