Change alternative chart of account

what is the differents steps and blocking points when you want to change a lot of alternative account (create new one, replace  old account per a new account,...). What are the impacts and the blocking points in financial statement?
Thanks for your feed back.

Hi,
I have the same issue. I have to change the alternative account to some accounts that have no balance zero. In order to put the balance zero, I have to do a posting, but previously I have to set all the automatic accounts to manual accounts in FS00, and I don't know how to solve this issue for reconciation accounts. For vendor and customer reconciliation accounts, I can create a virtual customer and vendor in order to do this posting, but what should I do for asset reconciliation accounts? Should I use ABF1 in order to be able to do the direct posting to the asset reconciliation account?
Thank you very much,
Ariana

    Dear Michal,
    I'm relaxed after looking at your thread related to Alternative Chart of Accounts since I have got into same problem.
    NB: Apologies for not opening up a new thread as against forum rules. This is because I may not be able to get Michal's response in time, if I deviate from this thread.
    My Client Requirement: In Spain, for the year 2008, the Spanish Chart of Accounts (country COA) has been changed and due to this, we have to change corresponding alternative accounts of several GL accounts (range includes Reconciliation accnouts with Open Item Mgnt, Accounts managed with 'Post Automatically only' and Normal accounts). 
    Problem is quite obvious that these GL accounts have balances....
    Michal,
    Can you please forward ABAP code that you have been using to get rid of this situation? I would really be gratefully if you can do this needful.
    Regards
    Mahesh

  • 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,

  • 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

    Hi,
    Changing the Chart of Accounts code along with all General Ledger Accounts leads to complete re-implimentation of sap.
    There will be lot of integration points will need to be changed with all the modules like SD, MM, PP and Controllling. Extensive testing of all business processes is needed.
    Definitely it will take lot of time and effor from alll the module and may not be explained in sentences here.

  • Change of Chart of Account

    Dear Expert,
    Please provide me your inputs on the below question.
    Can we change a chart of account in Production Stage as well as development stage? If yes, under what circumstance can would one change it and what is the procedure of changing it?
    regards
    Sandip
    Moderator: Please, search before posting

    Technically, yes they can be changed.  In development system it is simpler as compared to the change in production environment.  There are SAP tools available for chart of accounts transfer.  See the following notes.
    https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/369036
    https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/119906
    If these are all interview questions, I'd suggest you take a good textbook on SAP configuration in Financials and Controlling modules.  This forum is really for people who face realtime issues in their projects and are looking for a solution.  If you are eager to learn, you are very welcome to read the forum threads/questions.  There is also keyword search functionality using which you can read threads/questions that interest you!

    Hi
    What Implications that may have applied reset to a company code that has been productive and has therefore are posted from FI, CO, MM, SD, PM, PP and WM.  (Reset Transaction: OBR1 for Delete Company Code Data)
    It is important to point out that the company began to operate with the modules MM, SD, PM, WM and PP without considering its effects on FI and CO and therefore the data that is in financial accounting and cost is not to relevate for the company. This is to be done with the intention to start with a new Plan of Accounts for this company code.
    thanks for the help they can give me!!!!!!

  • Update BSEG with alternative G/L account after assigning it at company code

    Hello,
    I'm facing an issue concerning the update of BSEG and other tables.
    We have started to work in Production from January 2010 without alternative chart of accounts. So many posting till now.
    Now the company wants to set up the local chart of account for some legal requirement. I know that once we have put an alternative chart of account, we can not change the local G/L account before balance at 0.
    But in my case, the local chart of account was not assigned to the company code. So I can put what I want in the group G/L account as alternative account.
    The idea is to create a local chart of account, after all local G/L accounts related to the local chart of account and after assign the local chart of account to the company code.
    The problem is that for all historical items (january 2010 to June 2010) I don't have the local G/L account in BSEG and other tables (FI)...and I need it for reporting.
    Thanks for your help

  • How to change chart of account to company code

    Dear  Guruu2019s
                                 I am new  SAP  FICO . I got the following thread  . I have configured the company code through copy the existing company code. Now I  want to change the Chart of Account to this company code.

    How to go further could anybody explain me.
    Thank you in advance
    krishna

    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.
    1. First of all you must, if it exists, reset the transaction data for this company code.
    2. 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.

  • 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.
