Behaviour of GL Accounts in Hierarchy Nodes

Question

Hi experts,
We have a BI report on Financial statement version. We have a hierarchy used on GL Account.
In the hierarchy in a node, suppose in the node Assets some gl accounts are maintained.
And another node Liabilities some gl accounts are maintained.
But few gl accounts are maintained in both the nodes i.e assets and liabilities.
In the BI report output, the balance against  these gl accounts is coming under both nodes Assets and Liabilities.
But the requirement is if the balance against a GL account is Negative then it should be displayed only under Liabilities node and
if the balance against the gl account is postive then it should be displayed only under Assets node.
It should be displayed in either Asset node or in Liability node depending on the sign of the Balance.
We have only some GL accounts like this.
Please provide some inputs to solve this.

Answer 1

Hi All,
Thanks for the reply. I have loaded the data into the cube 0figl_c10. Installed the virtual cube 0figl_v10 and also the query
0FIGL_V10_Q0001( Bal.Sheet and Profit and Loss (New):Actual/Actual Comparison ) from BI content. Extracted the hierarchies
for the infoobject 0GLACCEXT.In this hierarchy for some gl account in the field BAL_DEPEND ( Balance Dependency of a
Hierarchy Node ) the value is maintained as "1" "Suppress Balance if Positive" for some gl accounts and "2" "Suppress Balance
if Negative" and blank "No Balance Dependency" for some gl accounts.
We have a gl account 60380 for this gl, in the bal dependency field the value is maintained as 1 in Assets and 2 in Liabilities(
coming from R/3).
This gl is maintained both in assets and liabilities. I executed the report.
In a business area in a period the value for this gl is both +ve and -ve. But actually assets should show only +ve values and
liabilities should show only negative values.But this gl account is appearing in the node "Assets" only and the balances have
both the values i.e +ve and -ve.
As per the setting in the field BAL_DEPEND i.e 1 in Assets, the postive values should be suppressed.
But it is not suppressing the postive values. It is showing both the values under only assets node.
I changed the bal depedencey value to 2 in the assets to see whether it suppresses -ve values but also it is not suppressing.
Any solution or explanation ?
