Cons unit change at year end

Hi : )
when performing a cons unit change at the end of the year whereby the old cons group becomes unnecessary as no cons unit is part of it in period 1/2011, do I have to delete the cons group as well from the new hierarchy starting on the 1.01.2011 or do I just delete the cons units out of this old cons group?
Also, as we will have a new cons group and cons unit hierarchy starting from the 1.01.2011 will we not be having a problem displaying period 12/2010 data come January as the hierachy then used in the queries will only have the new structure, i.e. the moved cons units sitting under the new cons group??? Our queries are currently set up to select the hierachy using the default query date...
Your views would be very much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Tanja

Thanks Dan : )
The configuration document that I received mentions to deleting the cons unit in the 1st period following the consolidation group change. So because I am divesting the cons unit in period 12/2010 I interpreted that I can delete the cons unit from the old cons group in period 1/2011 including the old cons group as there are no more cons units within it.
But this will be causing us problems in January for period 12/2010 reporting as the new hierarchy starting on 1/1/2011 that is picked by the queries due to default query date will not be have the old cons group.
So I think by what you said to leave the cons unit and cons group until the year over year reporting is finished will solve our problem.
But here is the example anyway. Maybe there is a different way:
Cons unit A is the only cons unit under Cons Group A and is divested as at 12/2010
Cons unit A is acquired into a new never before existed Cons Group C as at 12/2010
So the currently valid hierachy is valid from 01.01.2010 - 31.12.2010 with Cons unit A now residing in 2 places
In period 1/2011 I deleted Cons unit A under Cons Group A and also deleted cons Group A.
This created a new hierachy that is valid from 01.01.2011- 31.12.9999
So in I am correct in assuming that if our queries use default query date that we will have a problem trying to report on period 12/2010 data in January?
Kind regards,
Tanja

Local currency change at year end - how to force LC to match GC

Ok, so to change LC at year end is no problem (change master data in the new year, assign CT method to BCF task etc)
But if your new LC is now equal to your GC, you may well have a diference between the two values.
Is there any way to force that they are the same automatically (agreeing to GC preferably)
I read it was maybe possible in EHP5 but we don't have that

I have not tried this but it may be possible to create a translation method to make the values agree with GC and then assign this method to the balance carryforward task for the year of the change.

Financial Year end Change

Dear all
The Finnancial year end for my client was changed from 31/12/09 to 31/10/09. The financial periods
was created as 12 months in the fiscal year. This has now decreased to 10 months.
I can delete the last two periods and create a new fiscal year starting 01/11/09.
but there are two problems:
1)The last two periods can be deleted but in the Posting Periods window when drilling down into one
of the remaining periods the number of periods still shows as 12.
2)A new Fiscal year with 12 periods can be created starting 01/11/09 but in the Fixed assets module
when trying to change the fiscal year I get the Following message: "There is no subsequent fiscal
year for FY09" . Also on the asset master files the depreciation is calculated for 12 months and not for
te decreased 10 month fiscal year
Please advise

Change fiscal year to 2006 in Asset Management : error in year-end closing

SAP version: 4.0B
Transaction Codes used: Year-end closing AJAB, Fiscal year change AJRW
We are trying to change the fiscal year to 2006 in Asset Management.
I tried to change the fiscal year to 2006 for the company code 0055 using transaction code AJRW. The test run has displayed an error message Fiscal year change in co. code 0055 1 possible only after year-end closing 2004 2.
I have used the transaction code OAAQ to find the out the fiscal year, the closing for depreciation area is successfully performed.
Unfortunately it is still showing 2003 which should have been 2004 for company code 0055.
I tried to close the fiscal year 2004. The test run has completed successfully. I have scheduled the RAJABS00. The program has executed successfully with no errors or warnings.
The closing for depreciation area (Transaction OAAQ) is still showing 2003 for company code 0055, which should have been changed to 2004.
I am new to Asset Management. Can you please give some suggestions on how to fix the problem and change the fiscal year to 2006.
Thank you,
Vidya

Hi,
Thank you very much for your prompt reply.
I have used transaction OAAR to check if any area is still open for previous years.
Surprisingly! The areas are closed only till 2003.
Can you please let me know what to do (transaction codes - programs) to close the areas for fiscal year 2004.
I am new to Asset Management. I think you are good in Asset Management. Can you please give some suggestions on how to close the fiscal year 2004.
Can you please let me know if I have to run any other transactions other than closing the areas before running the transaction to close the fiscal year 2004.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Vidya

Fiscal Year End change

Our current Fiscal Year variant is April March. However we have now been bought by a different company and the fiscal year end needs to change to Jan-Dec. Therefore this year will be a shortened year.
I have a couple of questions:
I can see in SPRO that the fiscal year can be changed (transaction OB29) to accommodate a shortened year. Currently our year is set up under K4 which is year dependant not calendar dependant. How do I modify this? Do I move the tick from one to another (ie to calendar year), or do I need to copy the K4 and use it as a new one. If I do this what else do I need to do, I know if I changed it I would need to allocate it to the company code.
2. When do the changes need to be in Production, is it before year end, last day after everyone has gone home, on day 1, or once the accounts have been finalised? I assume I could make the changes in Dev/QA before then and fully test?
3. I understand that I need to do something on Asset/Depreciation. Again please advise on the timing of this.

I wonder if you can answer something further. Our financial year used to be Jan-Dec, which meant the fiscal year number (i.e. 2002) would be the same as the calendar year date. Then we had a shortened fiscal year so we could move to April-March. This meant for example that this year (April 07 to March 08), our fiscal year is 2008. We have just had a change of ownership and yes you guessed it, the financial year needs to move again, so we are having another shortened year ending in December. This means that our next financial year which be 2009, which covers January 08-December 08.
My question is, how do I let people see this when running reports etc. In IMG you can specify text for the period, however when looking at reports or data in any part of the system, this does not seem to appear anyway.
How has anyone else got round this?

BCS Virtual Cube Cons Group Change

Hi,
We have a number of Bex reports that read from the BCS virtual cube for our month end reporting.
Quite recently, we prerfomed some Cons Group changes in the BCS application which has impacted our Bex reports via the virtual cube.
If we check the contents of the virtual cube with Cons Group displayed in the output, we see it is missing data (period blank) and this is the data that is being extracted to our Bex report.
If however we check the contents of the virtual cube without diplaying Cons Group, then we get our disired result.
Has anyone experienced anything similiar? Is it possible to get Bex to read the data we require?
Thanks in advance.

It is suggested you read the SAP BCS help for cons group changes.
In most cases the cons units should not be removed from the "divesting" cons group when adding it to another cons group. The cons group master data for the "divesting" cons group should simply be updated for these units with a period/year of divestiture - the period of change.
Additionally the cons group changes tasks move the balance sheet items from the "divesting" cons group to the "acquiring" group with posting level 02. 12 and 22 records to allow for reporting of pre- and post- change reporting on these cons groups.

FI-AA Impact on changing the year dependent fiscal year period from 445 to 435

Dear Friends,
May I have your comment on the impact of below change
Currently using Year Dependent fiscal year variant K5 and period end closing is *445
future we want to use the same fiscal year dependent variant K5 , however the period end closing will be *435
*445 Periods - 1st month 4th sat, 2nd month 4th sat, 3rd month 5th sat will be the closing periods
similarly for the rest of the months in a year
*435 Periods - 1st month 4th month, 2nd month 3rd sat, 3rd month 5th sat will be the closing periods
similarly for the rest of the months in a year
Impact on Asset Module and other modules will be a great help

Turkey: year end close RFSUMB00 / fiscal year variant

Hello guys,
I am wondering if anyone of you have had this requirement before.
Running RFSUMB00 on a Turkish company code will blow away the balances from all G/L accounts so that each individual account has a balance of 0.
Questions:
1. How do you manage revenue accounts (cost element categories 11 and 12). A pure cost centre is not enough as CO account assignment. You can switch off error message KI 166 (so that no COPA documents are then created), but is this really wanted?
2. If each individual account has a balance of 0 at year end, how to create a B/S and P/L for that year? Especially, for previous years? The only thing that comes to my mind is using special periods (13 to 16), but.... -->
3. ...in our system, the FI fiscal year variant is not K4, but a custom variant. The fiscal year (of the group) does not end on 31st December. I have a small FI-SL application running in the background (with K4 assigned there), and I could change the FI-SL period to 13 during the document transfer easily, but I ask myself why I do not post all of these funny closing documents directly in FI-SL then? This would save me from the usage of dummy assets/customers/vendors and the continous changes made to the "automatic postings only" flag (SKB1-XINTB).
Turkey experts, any hints welcome. What are your best practices?
Thank you,
Csaba

Yes frank,
GL closing should be carried only after all the sub ledgers are closed
for asset closing
you should open the new fiscal year first (AJRW) and then close the existing fiscal year. (AJAB)
otherwise FI-AA and Fi-GL may not reconcile (use tcode ABST2 to check this)

Sach!n
