Closing balance of january to be carried forward as February opening bal.

Hi Gurus,
I am looking for the script logic which helps me to carry the closing balance of a month to the next month as opening balance. Please can anyone help me with the code.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kumar,
From consolidation perspective, carry forward is a period-end activity and has to be done every period. CATEGORY dimension has a property called OPENING_PERIOD which can be used to define the source period from where you want to copy the data. The target period is defined as variable in the data manager package. So you have to run it for each period.
Normally, we bring closing balances from ECC (or any other source system) and also load supplemental movements types (F_120 etc). Then we use default logic (as shown below) to check the data integrity and post differences in error flow.
[ACCDETAILDIM].[#F_ERR] =IIF([ACCOUNTDIM].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("DIMLIST1")="L1_E", [ACCDETAILDIM].[F_999] - [ACCDETAILDIM].[F_100] - [ACCDETAILDIM].[F_120] + [ACCDETAILDIM].[F_140],0)
Say if you are loading periodic data from source systems (ECC) and want to calculate the closing balance from openings/movements then you can create a script logic for the same. You can also use transformation rules and post the closing balances.

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.

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.

How SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?

Hi,
I would like to find out how SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?
Income statement
Profit after Tax - 50
Balance Sheet
Retained profit (last year) - 100
Current Year profit - 50
How do i configurate 'Profit after Tax' = 'Current Year profit' in workbench? Is BCS going to store the computed results?
Balance items (ie 'Retained profit (last year)' and 'Current Year profit') by default are carry forward to next year in BCS.
Do i need to configurate 'Current Year profit' add to 'Retained profit (last year)'?
Pls advise.
Thanks.
Regards, Renee

Hi Renee,
By default, the balance sheet items are to be carried forward to next year. If you dont make any settings, both items, Retained profit (last year) and Current Year profit will be transferred to themselves, that is not correct.
You need to show the system which items are to be carried forward not to themselves.
To force the system to make the proper transfer, in UCWB go to Consolidation Functions -> Balance Carryforward -> Items to be Carried Forward.
Enter there the following information:
Orig. Item__________Debit Item_______Credit Item
Current Year profit____RE (last year)_____RE (last year)
Do the similar operation for all items to be carried to other than themselves items, for example dividends of the current and last years etc.
Hope this helps.

Message Document item not yet carried forward on closed lines

Situation: A PO contains multiple line items and only the open lines are carried forward. In the new fiscal year, I want to reduce the quantity or amount of the carried forward line, however, the system indicates that the closed lines have not yet been carried forward. I can open posting periods 13 and 0 and successfully make the adjustments to the open lines and the closed lines are not carried forward.
Questions: Why does the system consider the closed lines when updating carried forward lines? Is there a solution for updating open lines without opening these posting periods?

Carry Forward Balances

Hello,
Could you please explain me on the details of the F.07 transaction? What exactly happens in SAP when this is run? Also, are there any documents created when this is run or information stored in regards to it? Please let me know
Thanks in Advance!

F.07 is used to carry forward vendor and customer account balances into a New Fiscal Year.
Customer and Vendor Accounts: The balances on the balance sheet accounts are simply carried forward into the new fiscal year. Additional account assignments are transferred.
There are no prerequisites for carrying forward customer and vendor accounts.
Automatically Adjusting Balances Carried Forward
When you carry forward the balances for G/L accounts at the end of a fiscal year, the system automatically adjusts the balances when you post values to the previous year. The system uses an indicator to determine whether the balances have been carried forward. Once this has been done, the balance is automatically carried forward whenever a posting is made, even when a posting is made to the previous year. It is therefore not necessary to execute the balance carry forward again.

Best practices when carry forward for audit adjustments

Dear experts,
I would like to know if someone can share his best practices when performing carry forward for audit adjustments.
We are actually doing legal consolidation for one customer and we are facing one issue.
The accounting team needs to pass audit adjustments around April-May for last year.
So from January to April / May, the opening balance must be based on December closing of prior year.
Then from May / June to December, the opening balance must be based on Audit closing of prior year.
We originally planned to create two members for December period, XXXX.DEC and XXXX.AUD
Once the accountants would know their audit closing balance, they would have to input it on the XXXX.AUD period and a business rule could compute the difference between the closing of AUD and DEC periods and store the result on an opening flow.
The opening flow hierarchy would be as follow:
F_OPETOT (Opening balance Total)
F_OPE (Opening balance from December)
F_OPEAUD (Opening balance from the difference between closing balance of Audit and December periods)
Now, assume that we are in October, but for any reason, the accountant run a carry forward for February, he is going to impact the opening balance because at this time (October), we have the audit adjustments.
How to avoid such a thing? What are the best practices in this case?
I guess it is something that you may have encounter if you did a consolidation project.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Cookman and I have been arguing about this since the paleozoic era. Here's my logic for capturing everything.
Less wear and tear on the tape and the deck.
You've got everything on the system. Can't tell you how many times a client has said "I know that there was a better take." The only way to disabuse them of this notion is to look at every take. if it's not on the system, you've got to spend more time finding the tape, and adding "wear and tear on the tape and the deck." And then there's the moment where you need to replace the audio for one word from another take. You can quickly check all the other takes (particularly if you've done a thorough job logging the material - see below)_.
Once it's on the system, you still need to log and learn the material. You can scan thru material much faster once it's captured. Jumping around the material is much easier.
There's no question that logging the material before you capture makes you learn the material in a more thorough way, but with enough selfdiscipline, you can learn the material as thoroughly once it's been captured.

Items to be Carried Forward

Hello,
Iu2019m having a problem with the Balance Carryforward.
The values of the items I put in u201CItems to be Carried Forwardu201D are not being carryforward.
For example:
Iu2019ve defined as original item (8899000089) and as debit and credit Item (5910000000), but when I do the Balance Carryforward at Consolidation Monitor I donu2019t have the item 5910000000.
But all the balance items are being carryforward correctly.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Dan,
Thanks for your response.
Item 5910000000 is Balance Sheet type.
And if Balance sheet items are automatically carried forward, shouldnu2019t this task u201CItems to be Carried Forwardu201D be used to do the carried forward of items that are not balance sheet type, as for example income statement type? Or else, what is the purpose of this task?
Thanks for your help.

Can any one please tell me what is the hierarchy for the above transactions?
Do I need to carry CJCO, CJCF and then IM27, IM_CLOSE & IMCAOV? or first I need to carry out for IM and then do for PS?
What is the flow? Please advise me on the above.
Thanks in Advice,

Opening and closing balance mismatch for - RG23A Part II

Dear SAP Gurus,
RG23A-Part-II for the month of May 2010 and have noticed the following problems
1. The closing balance of last month is not tallying with the opening balance of current month. The balances printed in the register for BED, EDUCESS And HSEC are wrong.
2. We have utilized the CENVAT balance for the payment of duty for the month of May 2010 - J2IUN.
3.It is observed that even though we have debited duty under three headings, i.e. BED, EDUCESS and HSEC the register shows all the three debits under BED, which is incorrect
Note : The Table entry of J_1IPart2 for Accounting Document ex 200033141 does not show breakup for Education Cess and H&SEcess.
Kindly help what and where do we need to check for the setting?
Regards,
Prashanth

Its possible that some transactions are posted after you extract the report. Extract the report again (J2I5) and print them.
Have you configured different GL accounts for posting BED, ECS & HCS. From your description, it seems same GL is assigned for all three components.

Using Schedule Manager (FMDM) to manage budget carry forward for commitment

Greetings,
Using ECC 5.0, we have a business requirement to carry forward (FMJ2) some open commitments with budget and some open commitments without budget to the new fiscal year. We have attempted to use Schedule Manager (FMDM) to change the settings on open commitments (purchase requisitions and purchase orders). While the Schedule Manager reflects the change in the budget carry forward status, the application of the FMJ2 does not work as expected. Alternatively, we have changed the configuration settings and then transported changes to production environment.
I would appreciate guidance on how to troubleshoot operation of Schedule Manager so budget carrry forward status can be managed with this tool.
Regards,
Rod Anderson

Thanks, Ming.
My security team has confirmed that the FMDM is currently set up as a display only transaction. I now know where to take the issue from here.

Trial Balance opening & closing balance changing.

Hi
In this financial year, we closed the all the period upto mar-11.The closing of balance of all items is correct. But, now for april month I am running the trial balance, the closing balance of Mar-11 is not tally with the opening balance of apr-11.
I want to know changing of account type say fior eg., from. liablity to expenses, or revenue to assets in the mid of the year for account segment values, what the impact.
Can any one helping me.
Regards
Zunaitha.J

Hello.
When you say balances do not tally it is because the difference has gone to Retained Earnings account. This is probably due to an incorrect account account definition (Expense instead of Asset or something alike).
This means that you have to find which is the wrong account, set it's balance to zero WHILE IT'S DEFINITION IS STILL WRONG and then reverse the correction journal whith the account already in it's correct definition.

FM Carry Forward

Hi Experts,
We are planning to archive the FI Accounting Document and found out that archiving is not possible due to open FM Invoice. SAP recommended us to carry forward the open FM invoice to current fiscal year.
We have open FM invoice since year 2000. If we use TCODE FMJ2, do we need to perform the carry forward year after another? Is there any impact to the system if we carry forward all the open FM invoice to current fiscal year?
Thanks in advance.
Jess

Hi Jess,
The CF of invoices in FM is relevant, when you operate under payment budget. The impact of carry-forward would be the transfer of FM documents (with or without the budget which is on them - due to the customization) to the following year. Generally, this is a usual operation that should be executed every year if a payment phase of an invoice is relevant for you budget-wise. If it's not (apparently, this is the case, otherwise you should have done it every year), then the CF has purely technical meaning. So, you can CF your documents year by year if it helps you to archive FI.

Eli

Year end closing (Balance carried forward

Hi
Please help. Our company did not do a year close on debtors and vendors. I realised it now with certain debtors, that their closing balance (June 2006) do not agree to the opening balance (July 2006).
Can one do a closing on the sub-ledger (Debtors & Vendors) as well as for the GL. What affects will it be having on our books or is it save to do it.

Hi Theo,
There is probably nothing much you can do to bring the balances to what it should have been by end of June as some debtors would probably have paid amount owed before June 2006 and you may have paid some Creditors too.
Your best bet is to still go ahead and carry out the year end closure of all the various sub-ledgers that has not been done. Once you've completed this, you may then want to embark on a reconciliation process to determine the exact balances as at June 2006 by analysing all payments received from Debtors to see which ones relates to prior 30 June 2006 and adding these back to get the correct figures as at end of June 2006. You would have to do the same for all Vendor payments you have made.
Just to be sure you have not left out anything from your year-end processes, the following would be very useful and handy as a guide. (Though some of them may not be applicable to your organisation)
1. CJCF - Carry Forward Commitments For WBS Elements
2. CJCO - Carry Forward Budgets For WBS Elements
3. IM27 - Carry Forward IM Budget

6. AJRW - AM Fiscal Year Change
7. OAAQ - Check Last Fiscal Year Closed

13. 2KES - Profit Center:Carry Forward of Actual Balance
14. OKP1 - Close All Periods in Old Fiscal Year For CO
15. KSCF - Cost Centers Carry Forward

How is carry forward balance and closing balance stored in BW

Hello all,
I am working with the new G/L cube...and as per one of the reporting needs I need to display the carry forward balance and closing amount balance that comes from R/3.
Can someone tell me how can this be achieved in BW.
Thanks,

if you are in 2006 ...execute the report for 2005...and at the end of the year whatever amount shows up in your cumulative balance key figure, is the balance that has been carried forward into 2006...
assign points if it helps...
