Consolidation group change: Balance sheet/income statement balance 14,560

Dear All,
While performing the consolidation group change task, system throws the error message :
Balance sheet/income statement balance 14,560,497.62- INR
Message no. UCD1011
Diagnosis
The document to be posted is not completely in balance.
Entries involving items of the balance sheet or the income statement must always have a zero balance to ensure that both the balance sheet and the income statement are balanced, respectively. This is not true in this case.
System Response
Entry cannot be posted.
Procedure
Correct the amounts for the balance sheet items and/or income statement items.
I have checked the COI Settings and not showing any error.
I have analysed the problem and found that system is not picking one FS item 107501 i.e Profit and Loss CY.
Can any one suggest me how to resolve this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi DAN,
i ll elaborate what i wanted to convey.
When we upload
1. TB Equal to ZERO
2. Net of BS items may not be equal to ZERO
Eg: if September 2010 (FY is April to Mar) file is being uploaded, the profit till the period September will be in PL items. so to the extent of profit element will be the difference in BS Items.
when u run profit calculation task, after data upload and validation, system will pass the following entry,
In case of Loss:
BS - Profit and loss - CY -           Dr
PL- Profit before MI         -          Cr
BS- BS Clearing A/c                     Cr
PL - PL Clearing A/c                    Dr
when u run PCC, system ll pick these two items *BS - Profit and loss - CY and BS- BS Clearing A/c. so obviously, posting cannot be done.
Please tell me if u still not understand
Thanks and Regards,
G Vinod

Balance Sheet/Income Statement Report using SSRS

I am trying to create a balance sheet, income statement report using ssrs. Due to lack of experience, I am seeking some help from someone who has already built one. For the report I am trying to built, the data isn’t readily available
in a master/detail format. I need to connect to an Oracle DB, run one or more stored procedures (in Oracle) to put data in a temporary/run-time table (reporting table) and read that data to create the financial statement.
Any help or guidance would really be appreciated.

Hi Khaga,
Adding to Vishal's reply, before we can connect an Oracle data source, the system administrator must have installed the version of the .NET Data Provider for Oracle that supports retrieving data from the Oracle database. This data provider must be installed
on the same computer as Report Builder and also on the report server. To retrieve data from an Oracle database, we can use Oracle or OLE DB data source type. For more details about the connection string, please see the following document:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-IN/library/dd220591.aspx
Besides, we can refer to the following SSRS tutorial about create a basic report in Reporting Service:

Income Statement & Balance Sheet Reporting via a single ASO cube

Hi All,
I wanted to get some perspective on industry best practices as it relates to performing Income Statement & Balance Sheet reporting via a single Essbase ASO cube. As both these areas share a lot of common dimensions, do most of the companies implement a single cube for integrated reporting or split cubes and have tools like HFR, Web Analysis etc. combine the information from those cubes for integrated cube.
Appreciate any thoughts on this.
Thanks!

You have asked this question the essbase forum :- ncome Statement & Balance Sheet Reporting via a single ASO cube
Best keeping it to one forum and seeing it is a purely essbase question.

Standardizing entries:Consolidation Group Change

Hi,
We have document type of posting level 12, to reverse the document type of posting level 10 (standardizing entries) when consolidation unit change the group or leaves the group.
When group change task is executed, the balance becomes zero.
However, when balance carryforward is executed, the Document type of posting level 12 is not carried forward to next year. This results in balance appearing in the accounts where postings were madeat posting level 10 in the last year.
Please advise.
Regards,
UR

Can you confirm you see the PL10 entries if you run a list of totals records, standard reporting logic, and the consolidation group where the entity previously existed?
If you have PL10 balance sheet activity for 00 - 03/2007 and divest in 04/2007, the system books the PL12 in 04 to write down these balances. In the "Standard" reporting logic, the system will look for all 00, 01, and 10's for company XYZ between 00/2007 and 04/2007 --> those are the dates when the company was a member of the consolidation group.
When you do a BCF to 2008, the PL12 should not carry forward. When reporting on 01/2008, for example, "Standard" logic will see that company XYZ was divested in 04/2007 and will look for any postings related to that company. The PL12's are only needed during the year in which the company was divested.
Note that you can keep feeding balances to the company and the system will keep booking intercompany eliminations, etc. But as long as you have the master data and AFD set correctly, that company should not appear in the consolidated reports.

Consolidation Group Change and Consolidation Activity

Hi Experts,
I am new in SAP consolidation, I have a question regarding the difference between the function "consolidation group change" and "consolidation activity".
If I read in the sap library, these 2 functions are separated, but if I look at the content, I saw some similarity where the consolidation group change also included the investment activity like acquisition and divestiture.
Could anyone explain what are the difference between these 2 function?
When I was a user, if the group acquiered a new cons unit, I just add a new cons unit in the consolidation group hierarchy, assign consolidation method, add the additional financial data for the ownership percentage (activity = first consolidation), enter the reported financial data, run CI function and add one more column in my report painter.
When I read SAP library, I saw the "consolidation group change" function talking about the consolidation activity, now I wonder, what are the difference? What is the business scenario for using the "normal" CI activity and the "consolidation group change"? Please anyone advise. Thank you.
regards,

Normal C/I is a regular acquisition or divestiture. Cons Group Change could be movement of a company from one consolidation group to another (i.e., parent A sells company 1 to parent B). Or you own a company 20% and purchase an additional 60% and must switch accounting technique from Equity to Purchase. BCS will need to book Cons Group Change entries to account for the acct technique change. (In the past, at 20%, you would only book equity pickup, or equitization entries, to the parent as PL30 adjustments in the CoI. Now you must bring in the complete balances of the company due to purchase method of consolidation. BCS books consolidation-group specific adjustments to do this.)
Example....
"Normal C/I activity"
New company A needs be consolidated in Cons Group 1 starting in 03/2007. Add the company to the Cons Group master data, set the accounting technique, update additional financial data w/ activity First consolidation and load data for the new company. Run COI
"Cons Group Change"
Company A is consolidated in Cons Group 1, but starting in 06/2007 they will be sold to a parent in Cons Group 2. Update the Cons Group master data...setting company A to divest in 06/2007 from CG1 and to First Consolidate in CG2 starting in 06/2007. If using Org Change logic, create an Org Change number and define a sender/receiver relationship for CG1 --> CG2. In additional financial data, create a total transfer activity w/ org change logic from CG1 to CG2. Run Org Change task and BCS will zero out balance sheet related to company A in CG1 on posting level 02/12/22. In CG2, similar postings will book "catch up" entries in 06/2007 to bring full balance sheet into CG2. In CoI, company will be transferred to new parent.
Hopefully that makes sense...

Consolidation group change without ownership change

Hi All,
I require help in resolving this particular issue.
I have a company called 1000 which is having a subsidiary called 5010. both of the fall under the same consolidiation group called CG1.
Now I have run the First consolidation as of March 2009 and carry forwarded the balances in 2009.
Now 5010 has invested in 6 more companies and has become a holding company to them.
Now I thought of two options
1. To just create these 6 companies and enter the investment details for these companies and run the COI.
2. To create a new consolidation group called CG2. Put the 5010 company along with its 6 newly acquired subsidiaries under this consoldation group.
I ma exercising the option 2 by creating a new consolidation group as it will easy to get the reports at CG2 level.
As you can observe there has been no transfer of investment happening here. How do i take care of such a situation.
I read the posts regarding the Consolidation group changes but all posts were dealing with change in ownership happening. In my case there is no change in ownership as 1000 still continues to be the holding company. But only difference is that earlier 5010 was existing as a end node but now It has to have a consolidation group of its own where in it will have the holding company 5010 along with its 6 subsidiaries.
Pl give me a solution.
Thanks in advance.
Shivaprasad

facts of the scenario
1. Did first consolidation in period 012.2008
2. There is a company 5510 which belongs to CG1 as of first consolidation which was in period 012.2008
3. 5510 has invested in 6 new companies in period 003.2009
4. I want to create a new consolidation group CG2 and put the existing company 5510 along with 6 new companies under this group (client requirement)
5. I created a new consolidation group CG2 and assigned the company 5510 to this group along with 6 new companies
6. In consolidation group CG1 mentioned the divesture period as 003.2009 (DABP ticked) for 5510 company
7. in Consolidation group CG2 mentioned the First consolidation period as 003.2009 (FCEP unticked) against 5510 company
8. The figures are not accurate at the CG2 group level.
Should I be doing anything else apart from the above steps.
Will appreciate a fast reply as it is stopping the go-live
Thanks in advance

Balance Sheet or trail balance in Calender year

Dear Friend,
In Configuration in company code fiscal year variant is April to March.
The requirement is to get balance sheet and trail balance in calender year wise.
Can it possible to get above report in SAP standard ?
Please give your suggestion.
Warm Regards,
Nrusingha

Dear,
Yes dear it is possible in standard SAP.
If you have activated New G/L functionality then use Non Leading ledger to meet this requirement.
If you have not activated New G/L functionality then use Special Purpose Ledger.
You will have to create fiscal year variant for Jan-Dec and assign it to any of above ledger whichever you use.

SEM-BCS Preparation for Consolidation Group Changes

Hi All,
Is the task "Preparation for Consolidation Group Changes" only implemented when Consolidation of Investments has also been implemented?
Does "Preparation for Consolidation Group Changes" have any value on its own?
Any comments, replies or suggestions most welcome.

Hi,
I think that prep for cons group changes is independent (but supplementary to) from CoI.
See what is said in help:
"When in the middle of a fiscal year a consolidation unit is either acquired by a consolidation group (acquisition), divested from a consolidation group (divestiture), or <b>changes its accounting technique</b> (method change), the following data must be adjusted:
- Reported financial data
- Standardized financial data
- Consolidated data with posting level 20"
As you can see, not only consolidated data are to be changed, but also Standardized and Reported.
Moreover, as is seen above, changes of accounting technique will also trigger such activities.
So, my answers:
1. No
2. Yes.
Best regards,
Eugene

COI not reading equity data after consolidation group change

Dear experts,
I am running the consolidation of investments task for a new group that has been created on 012.2009. This new group CG2 is a child of an existing one CG1, and all the consolidation units that I have in 012.2009 under CG2 were in 012.2008 under the CG1.
In my new group GC2 all the units have as first consolidation period 012.2009 and on the parent group they have as last consolidation period 012.2009.
The problem is that when I run the COI task the system does not read the equity data for these consolidation units. I have both, equity data and Investment data defined to be read from additional financial data. The system reads correctly the investment data for the parent consolidation unit, and tries to eliminate it, but as it does not read the equity data of the child so it takes the value to consolidation a difference, that is incorrect.
Does anyone know what I am missing?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Sónia

Hi Sonia
i dont want to confuse you as Dan is guiding so far. let me put my thoughts some here.
CG1 12/2008
   - CU - A    Parent    12/2008 to 999/9999
   - CU- B                   12/2008 to 999/9999
   - CU - C                  12/2008 to 999/9999
do you have any another sub node for CU-B and CU-C? as B has investment in C
New Group: 12/2009
CG1
   - CU -A    12/08 to 999/9999
   - CU - B    12/08 to 12/9999
   - CU - C     12/08 to 12/2009
   CG2 group supose to be like this
CG1
    -CU-A
    -CU-B
       I--- CG2
             CU - B   Parent 12/09 to 999/9999
             CU - C                12/09 to 999/9999
     - CU-C
Now with above scenario you can invest in C from B and system will treate as FIRST CONSOLIDATION based on AFD Investments/Equity
How did you maintain B investments in C at CG1 12/08 level?
and or    as per Dan
You have to run PREP for CONSOLIDATION GROUP CHANGE task before CT task and after Elim Taks but before COI task
thx

Diference beetwen app of ret earnings in BALANCE Vs INCOME STAT

Hi expert
Wich is the diference beetwen activate check in consolidation area settings
Appropriation of retained earnings
*in Balance Sheet
*in Income Statement
how it work? is there any issue if I select one or if I select other
Thanks in advance

Hi
ARE in the Balance Sheet
If the appropriation of retained earnings is reported in the balance sheet, no special logic applies to subsequent consolidation, since the ARE items themselves are part of the reported equity data. In a divestiture or a transfer, the adjustment to group values from the triggering equity items is also posted to the allocated ARE items.
ARE in the Income Statement
If ARE is reported in the income statement, the reclassification of minority interests is posted automatically and simultaneously within the ARE u2013 that is, within the income statement.
The entries for the statistical net income are derived from data reported for the ARE items, not from reported equity capital that affects net income.
If data from distribution of dividends items exists, the statistical net income will differ from the adjusted statistical net income, because the latter does not contain the effect from the distribution of dividends. The Distribution of Dividends activity is not reported explicitly, because the corresponding items are components of ARE in the income statement, and part of the reported equity data.
For more info searh in a SAP Help.

Consolidation Group Changes Duplicate posting

Dear Experts,
Assume we have a consolidation Unit 1000 that belongs to group 1.1.2 and Group 1.1.2 belongs to Group 1.1.1 and group 1.1.1 belongs to group 1.1.0:
1.1.0
         1.1.1
                  1.1.2
                           (1000)
We want to dispose of consolidation Unit 1000. after selecting the divestiture date and period, I run the "CG Reported Fin Data" Task:
The system reverses the BS items 3 times: First it creates a document with Group 1.1.0 reversing all the BS Items and 2 additional documents for 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 Groups.
As a result the balance on the FS item is credited or debited for 3 times instead of 1 time. The lower the consolidation unit level in the hierarchy the more documents are created.
I can't find the logic behind the system behavior and I hope someone can clarify this issue for me.
Thank you,
Jawad

Hi Beatriz and welcome to SDN!
This error message means that your net profit in P&L differs from retained erarnings in balance sheet (they are both, the special/selected items in the system settings) on this amount 12610,12. Most likely, you didn't proper define the special items.
Here is some info how the special items work:
When is 'Clearing Balance Sheet' and 'Clearing Inc Stmt item' used?
Hope this helps.

BCS - Divestiture consolidation group change

Is there a FM module that would tell me when a company was divested and what the new consolidation group would be?
I'm not a BCS consultant.

There may not be a FM for this.
When you define the consolidation units and consolidation group in BCS in the context of consolidating investments and eliminating inter comoany diviidends.
Even there, you may not get the date on which the disinvesment took place. Consolidation of investments will be carried on a "given day" on which the Balance sheet and BS are drawn.

Preparation for Consolidation group changes

Hi Experts,
I have worked on BCS but new to consolidation of investments and PCC.
I am not able to understand the Preparation for Consolidation (PCC) tasks as to why are they required. I've the following questions: -
1. SAP help says PCC tasks are supplementary to the C/I tasks. Could you elaborate on how are the suuplementary to C/I tasks?
2. What is the diff. between Acuisition in case of C/I and in case of PCC?
3. In terms of reporting what will go worng if we don't run PCC tasks after a new acquisition let say.
Thanks in advance,
SSC

1. PCC creates records to offset the balance sheet balances upon divestiture. These records include the relevant cons group values, where most BCS records do not include cons group because cons group in most cases is determined dynamically via the BCS virtual infocube function module's consolidations logic.
2. PCC records and documents only occur when there is a divestiture in the master data for a cons group. This could occur for a divestiture or transfer activity. Acquisition does not affect PCC, except when it occurs as a result of a transfer, and it is relevant to the divestiture portion of the transfer as opposed to the acquisition portion.
3. Nothing after an acquisition, it is mainly for divestitures and transfers (where a divestiture is necessary in the cons group master data).

FI doc not having effect in Balance Sheet or Trial Balance Reports

Hello All,
An FI doc which debits an G/L Account (Part of Asset side) & credits "Creditors Reconciliation account". when I see the effects thru FBL3N it has been posted correctly.
But When I see Balance Sheet Report or Trial Balance Report, such reports are not taking effect of above refered FI doc.
For Ex." GL Account 1234" is having balance Rs. 10000/- (credit balance) (If seen thru FBL3N)
One doc for Rs. 100 is posted which credits this account (included in above INR 10000)
Now when I see Balance Sheet, It only shows balance of "G/L 1234" INR 9900
Please try to resolve the problem. Waiting for your reply.
Thanx & best Regards

Issue resolved......GLT0 table was not updated
