Changing G/L account number

The FI guyes have changed G/L account numbers and we are getting ready for Go- Live. I want to understand what would be the best way to handle where there is inventory against G/L accounts which is changed. Do I need to transfer the invenotory to a buffer account and then change G/L and put the inventory back using 561 or something like that.
Is there a "mass transaction" or it must be dealt with individually?
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
you could use the 562 movement type to remove the stock, then change the GLs and then and then use the 561 movement type to add it back again (or simply cancel the material document that was created when the 562 movements removed the stock).
I would use a LSMW to do this and it should be relatively easy to achieve.
Firstly choose a time when nobody else in on the system, produce a spreadsheet of the materials and stock quantities (by storage location), then use this spreadsheet in the LSMW and then again when you want to write the stock on again.

Changing the alternative account number

Hi all,
Is it possible to change once assigned alternative account number that has already been posted to?
Thanks!!
D.

Hi,
Please see the solution given by Brendan O'Brien for the thread "GL Alternative Acct Number - error message FH007" in this forum.
Anyway, I am copying the text from the same thread. Hope this should be useful to you.
If you have a "Country-specific chart of accounts" assigned to the GL Account then it is correct that you cannot change the alternative Account number.
However if you do not have a "Country-specific chart of accounts" Assigned and yet you still cannot make this change
See note 305203. This note will prevent this message where no "Country-specific chart of accounts" is assigned.
If you do have a "Country-specific chart of accounts" assigned then unfortunately you cannot change this error message, as FH007 is hardcoded as an error.
However, a possible workaround which you may like to try could be:
Deassign the country chart of accounts from OBY6,the company code global settings. Then it is possible to enter an alternative account number on the G/L master record irrespective of whether there is a balance on the account or not. Once the alternative account number is saved, reassign the country chart of accounts to the company code.
However, as displayed, your account balancee is infact zero.
The note will prevent the error message FH 007 where no "Country-specific chart of accounts" has been assigned to the corresponding company code. However, in your case, it sounds like you have a "Country-specific chart of accounts" assigned to the company code. Hence the error message.
I hope that this information helps.
Thanks,
Ravi

Regarding change in the account number for an existing service number.

Hi,
Here the scenario is as it goes:
A customer with an account number(20xxx) has a service number(4206xxxxxxx) mapped to it.
In the month of September. Till 28/09, the account number is mapped to this service number. For the next two days. It has been moved to another account number(22xxx)
Now in the Billing Summary/Account Summary when I select the month of September, it should show me both the account numbers one contains some data and some contains the other. But it is showing only the old account number in the drop down.
select * from
select unique
'false' checkbox,
ad.account_key as account_key,
ad.account_num as account_num,
ad.contact_name as contact_name
from

select

from
select
xr3.CHILD_KEY,
xr3.OBJECTURI,

and ad.ACCOUNT_NUM like '%' || ? || '%'
and ad.contact_name like '%' || ? || '%'
order by
account_num asc
order by
account_key asc;
Please let me know how to edit this query.
what I have done was: I removed this part " and ad.ACCOUNT_NUM like '%' || ? || '%'" and it was giving me all the account numbers in that month. But it was user specific and it may affect some other users.

Can you post some example data and expected output in a way we could use it?
And please edit your post to format the code using {noformat}{noformat} tags.

Vendor Master Bank Account Number Changes

Hi,
Where are the changes of bank account number (New and the Old one) in vendor master data Reflected , is there any Table.??
Regards,
Archit

You can see the bank account before and after values in vendor master display or change. Call up the vendor master (XK02 or XK03), go to the Vendor: Payment transaction screen, and then select the menu path Environment -> Account Changes -> All Fields. The bank account changes will be listed under the change screen heading "Vendor Master (Bank Details)". You may need to click the button "Entries" to see the Vendor Master (Bank Details). Double-click that line and you will see the before and after values for ever bank number change.
Example:
Entry Vendor Master (Bank Details)
Date                          Chgd By              Co Bank Number    Acct/IBAN
11/30/09         ??????????       US 043318092      987654321     NEW
11/30/09         ??????????       US 043318092      123456789     OLD
Hope this helps.

ME52N: Purchase Requisition Change GL Account Number

Requirement: ABAP auto-change the GL Account field number in a Purchase Requisition after the Material Group is changed.
Background: This custom logic has been successfully applied to all types of Purchase Requisitions using BADI ME_PROC_REQ_CUST, with the exception of a Purchase Requisition type that is called a 'Service Limits'. There are differences that are important to note between a 'Service Limits' Purchase Requisition and the other Purchase Requisitions that had custom code added without any problems.
1)This type of Purchase Requisition uses a item category of 'B', and the logic has a tendency to flow through SAP differently.
2)This type of Purchase Requisition's GL Account number is under-intensified on the 'item' subscreen, and cannot be changed manually on that screen like the others..
3)In order for the GL Account to be changed manually, or for the GL Account to be changed once my code has changed the GL Account Number, the user must select the 'Limits' tab and select the Account Assignment arrow, then a popup appears where the GL Account can be changed manually, or, my coded GL Account number change then occurs.
Problem: I want the custom code to be able to change the GL Account NUmber without having to go into thge 'Limits' tab, where the icon has to be selected. I believe the problem is that the field is protected, because it displays as under-intensified, thus, preventing my new GL Account NUmber from displaying. I also have the subsequent SAP code below that appears to reject set_exkn because protect is set to 'X'.
CODE1: Is my custom code.
CODE2: Is the SAP code that my will flow into where this field appears to be unchangeable.
My question:
I am thinking that this GL Account field is protected and cannot be changed because it is under-intensified on the subscreen on the Purchase Requisition. Can it be changed with custom code, a way to 'unprotect it'? Or, are there settings that should be changed in SPRO for the Purchase Requisition to allow this functionality to change the GL Account number.
   Thank-You

Changing GL Account Number

Hi All,
Do you know the transaction code, if available to change the GL account number? I'm not talking about GL account description change through FS00.
If the existing gl account number is 123445, I want to change it to AB12345. Is it possible?
Regards
Prabin

Hi,
GL Account number being the primary key in the table, you cannot change the GL Account number.
You might however, create a new GL account and transfer the balance/line items from this GL Account into the new one.
But, if you can be more specific as why you want to change the GL Number, we might give you a better suggestion..

Bank Account Number length

Hi All,
I need to update a bank account number in transaction FI12. Reducing the number of digits from 11 to 10 digits, but every time I do it I got the error message:
Bank account number or bank number are not of valid length - AR212.
I already made some tests in transaction OY17 changing some country specific checks, but I still get the same error message.
Does anybody has an idea what the problem can be?
I already delete the bank account and try to recreate it, also did the same creating a new house bank, but also get the same error message.
Thank you so much for any help.
Amarildo Rapaci
Sealed Air Corp

If the issue is related to "bank account number" length, you should change the "bank account number" length in OY17 as per your requirement. You mentioned in your previous replies that you tried changing the "bank number" length in OY17, which will not help.
You are correct; post bank acct no. is in some European countries (Switzerland, for example), so changing that will not help MX.
Please also take a look at the following SAP Notes.
1. Note 1573150 - Check of bank account number for Mexico

Regarding Bank key and Bank account number

Hi All,
I have a query regarding Bank key and Bank account number.
I want to set bank account number length as 9 digits. so I set it @ below path
SPRO -> SAP NetWeaver-> General settings -> Set countries -> Set country specific checks.
I tried to change the bank account number length to 9 digits from existing 10 digits using transaction FI12.
But while changeing the bank account system throws an error like "Bank account number or bank number are not of valid length".
Can any one suggest solution on this?
Thanks in Advance!
Regards,
Nidhi

Dear Nidhi,
It seems that earlier bank account number contained 10 digits and then setting was changed to 9 digits that may be the cause of the error. Do one thing, go back to country setting and restore the bank account number digit to 10. Then make changes to bank account number to 9 digits. Make similar changes to all bank in your company code which has 10 digits.
Then go to country settings and make account number digit to 9 digit which will prevent bank account number to be 10 digits created in future.

Mass change of Vendor Bank Account Number

Dear Friends,
We have installed the new STS software from Standard chartered Bank for transferring payments to suppliers. This software needs some changes to the vendor bank account number (specific prefix depending on the vendor bank account currency).
Is there any standard utility available to do this? Or canthis be done using LSMW?
Thanks
Ravi

Are the changes being brought in only the prefix for that vendor and to reflect the same in table LFBK and see the field in Lifnr getting updated with the new Prefix value .
then check this Fm ..
BAPI_VENDOR_EDIT
May be can write a bdc for that particular vendor(s) in XK02 or can proceed with LSMW.
Im not sure clear with what transaction you are trying to change the prefix value cause u need to maintain that range for the vendor in the settings Spro.
regards,
vijay.
