Difference between classic G/L and new G/l

Hello friends...
Can anybody list out the difference between classic G/L and New general ledger?

Hi,
WE STILL HAVE dummy profit centers IN NEW G/L
1. Merge FI
a. Reduced data redundancy
b. Reduced error for period closing
c. Harmonized reporting
d. New General Ledger with reduced total cost of ownership (Faster Close etc.)
e. Profit Center Accounting is eliminated and is now part of New GL
f. Cost of Sales accounting is now part of New GL
g. Special Purpose Ledger is now part of New GL
h. Reconciliation Ledger is eliminated and is now part of New GL
i. Segment reporting
2. Merge FI, PCA & SL
a. Replacement of special ledger A/C
b. Enhanced audit ability
a. Better integrated reporting
b. Unified Financial & Management Accounting
c. Extensibility for customer dimension
3.
a. Document splitting
b. Enhanced reporting across Profit center and segments
4. Parallel accounting
a. More transparent COA reporting, Auditablity
What is parallel accounting and its features?
• Any number of parallel ledgers
• Online posting to multiple ledger
• Standard reporting for multiple ledger
Segment is a part of company that led to expense and revenues.
Configure New G/L
Before anything you need to activate them & make the general setting for accounting.
More, configure the ledger you use in G/L accounting with basic data you setup the integration with controlling (CO) and where applicable to parallel accounts.
assign points if useful,
Thx,

  • Difference Between Special Purpose Ledger and New General Ledger

    Dear All,
    Could any boy explain me the difference between Special Purpose Ledger and New General Ledger?
    Regards

    Hi
    General Ledger Accounting (FI-GL) (New) The central task of G/L accounting is to provide a comprehensive picture of external accounting and accounts. Recording all business transactions (primary postings as well as settlements from internal accounting) in a software system that is fully integrated with all the other operational areas of a company ensures that the accounting data is always complete and accurate. Beyond fulfilling the legal requirements, General Ledger Accounting also fulfills other requirements for modern accounting: - Parallel Accounting General Ledger Accounting allows you to perform parallel accounting by managing several parallel ledgers for different accounting principles. - Integration of Legal and Management Reporting In General Ledger Accounting, you can perform internal management reporting in parallel with legal reporting. For this purpose, the Profit Center Accounting functions are integrated with General Ledger Accounting. Furthermore, you can generate financial statements for any dimension (such as profit center). - Segment Reporting General Ledger Accounting supports the segment reports required by the accounting principles IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) and US GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). For this purpose, General Ledger Accounting contains the Segment dimension. - Cost of Sales Accounting You can perform cost of sales accounting in General Ledger Accounting. For this purpose, General Ledger Accounting contains the Functional Area dimension. Features General Ledger Accounting comprises the following functions for entering and evaluating posting data: - Choice between group level or company level - Automatic and simultaneous posting of all subledger items in the appropriate general ledger accounts (reconciliation accounts) - Simultaneous updating of the parallel general ledgers and of the cost accounting areas - Real-time evaluation of and reporting on current posting data, in the form of account displays, financial statements with different balance sheet versions, and additional analyses. In this way, General Ledger Accounting automatically serves as a complete record of all business transactions. It is the central and up-to-date component for reporting. Individual transactions can be checked at any time in real time by displaying the original documents, line items, and monthly debits and credits at various levels such as: - Account information - Journals - Totals/transaction figures - Balance sheet/profit and loss evaluations However, SAP still offers to choose between the New GL and the old Classic GL way of accounting. There are certain limitations in the new GL and clients are adopting to the new gl concept.

  • Differences between clear case 23' and new 23'

    I am having a hard time finding the differences between the two monitors. my clear case 23' is about 2 years old.

    Hi Matt,
    First off, KEEP your older ADC display. They have much more natural color
    and don't suffer from the pinkness and blue banding on the new Aluminum.
    I have followed the discussions since August of last year and there is no
    end to the color consistency complaints. In fact, Apple has deleted over 1000 messages regarding this. Why? Hmmm. They threw out a lot of helpful
    hints that could have helped their customers.
    I personally bought and returned 7 Alum Cinema 23 displays. Some from Apple, some from Fry's, and others from UCLA Apple store.
    The case is a beautiful design but the interior is different than the old 23.
    The new ones are brighter, more saturated in color and have 2 Firewire and
    2 USB ports available.
    However, they got rid of the system/start up power button and added a power brick with cables waving all over the place.
    I hopoed they would have solved the production problem by now but it seems
    that too few people are complaining ( graphic designers/video editors ).
    I gave up and just bought a one year old Plastic 23 display for $1000.
    I love it. The only thing I don't like is that the whites are a little yellowish
    due to its lower brightness specs ( 230 nits vs. 270 nits on the new one.
    The way to see the color issues with an Alum model is to set the desktop to
    a neutral gray. Or, simply drag a small image of gray (perhaps open up the little gray jpg located in Library/Desktop Pictures/Solids) across the screen.
    The left side will look a little pink and it will change to a blueish tone as you move to the right.
    Or better yet, open the Apple display calibrator, look at the Apple icon and
    move the window to the extreme left and right.
    It is only visible clearly in these circumstances but most people don't care.
    Considering the price drops it might be nice to get a new one but all I
    know is all the motion graphics studios I work at use the old monitors.
    It also is no coincidence that this past weekend Apple sold out of refurbished
    Plastic Cinema 23 in 24 hrs, while the Alum refurbs just sat.
    Take a look at the specials. They always have something good.
    Good luck to you. Hopefully, I won't be deleted for voicing my opinions.
    I'm a diehard Mac user and really this Alum 23 monitor is the first thing I
    ever complained about.

  • Differences between wireless keyboard old and new?

    I was thinking of buying a wireless keyboard and appear to have a choice of buying the current model at reduced price (MB167B/A) or wait a couple of weeks for the newer model (MC184B/A).
    This is obviously a no brainer - buy the cheaper one!
    But what is the difference between the models? Apart from the newer one requires higher system requirements (MacOS X v10.5.8 and Aluminium Keyboard Software Update 2.0).
    Many thanks for any help.
    Cheers,
    Tony

    Hi Tony:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    I have an "older" Bluetooth keyboard and it works just fine.
    For about 20 bucks, I would buy the older one. I cannot see any difference in functionality.
    Incidentally, battery use is an issue that has been discussed in these forums at length.
    FWIW, I use 2650 mAH Duracell rechargeables and a 15 minute charger. I have a bunch of rechargeable batteries and I am never longer than 15 minutes from a full charge. Rechargeables do not have the battery life of Lithium ones, but I really do not care for the reasons I indicated above.

  • Difference between BT Yahoo email and new BT mail

    I am at the moment on BT Yahoo mail and when i get an email that looks suspicious  like i did this morning from BT Billing [email protected]   I use the ACTIONS tab on the purple bar and select "View Full Header" which then displays details of the email and in this case in showed       Return-Path: <[email protected]>     which it should of been Return-Path: <[email protected]>
    My question is will the new BT mail have the same function that allows me to "View Full Header"
    Mike

    I never saw that option during the field trial, however you can view the headers if you use an e-mail client.
    edit:- I have just looked at the trial account, and there is no option to view headers on webmail.
    There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

  • Diff between Calculated key figure and new formula 6extra functions why

    Hi Friends
                  In BEx query designer we have Restricted key figure & Calculated key figure. In the case of Ristricted Key figure And new selection the difference is Global and local.
    But if we come to Calculated Key figure and New Formula the difference is same global and local. But in New formula we have 6 extra function. My question is does is there any certain reason for this or SAP AG not be able to develop those functions
    Thganks & Regards

    Hi Surendra thank you for your reply.
    But i am not asking difference between calculated key figure and New formula.
    What i am asking is in the case of Restricted Key figure And new selection the difference is Global and local.
    But in Calculated Key figure and New Formula the difference is same global and local and in New formula we have 6 extra function. My question is does is there any certain reason for this.Why not SAP AG is not included the new formula functions in Calculated key figure.

  • DIfference between TERADATA TVS technology an new TERADATA FOUNDATION Layer

    Experts ,
    what is the difference between TERADATA TVS technology and new TERADATA FOUNDATION Layer technology.
    What are the advantages and disadvantages of each
    Thanks

    Imagine I has a multiprovider that needed to look at process data from R3 and operational data from say a post office tracking system
    The post office tracking system was on a set of non R3 boxes and historically a EDW and reporting marts where built using non SAP products on a Teradata platform
    Within BW you can create a multicube on a BW cube that has the ECC data in it and have a virtual remote cube which reads teradata at run time to get the tracking data for that country etc
    BW does not store the data (why would it need to - it is already stored in the Teradata EDW system) but consumes it at run time in a query
    To read the data at runtime from Teradata you could either write your own function module or you could buy the TVAS module from teradata which does it for you (at a cost) and in teradata's words is optimised for Teradata SQL and handles hierarchies much better etc
    Teradata foundation is a whole different matter - in the case above it would involve you moving your BW box and putting it on Teradata. You coudl benefit from the massive parallel processing within teradata that your infopackges ands DSO activations within your BW LSA layers need.
    Teradata will easily handle its its normal non BW applications tens of terabytes in a very little time and it is normal to rebuild reporting marts from scratch each night rather than deltas due to the actual power of the product.
    How this integration within the  BW application is at this moment I dont know as I haven;t been updated since my last conf call with them.
    So it's horses for courses - if a client has a huge teradata platform already and a oracle BW one it is a door opener to move BW to that
    Or if its a greenfield site with huge and i mean huge data volumes that you need to model within a EDW layer then it might make sense to look at teradata or one of the other MPP database vendors.
    I notice you work in consultancy in presales - so I best leave the rest of the free advice there.. but it gives you a flavour

  • Difference between classic App and EPMA Appl

    hi,
    I am very new to hfm...
    So could you plz explain about what is difference between Classic Application and EPMA Application.
    In which cases we will create these applications.
    What is the uses of Both Applications?
    How do we create EPMA Application? Usually which application is more flexible?
    Edited by: 809370 on Dec 6, 2010 5:24 AM

    Hi,
    The basic difference is that you would be able to share dimensions across applications through EPMA.If you have a Planning application and a HFM app. and they both use a same dimension, then you don't need to create the dimension twice in EPMA. You can share the dimension across both applications. 'Dimension Library' enables youto do that.

  • Difference between classic and ECC pca

    Hi All,
    Could someone please tell me what is the difference between Classic and ECC PCA?
    Regards
    Suresh

    Hi
                Enhancement of new general ledger flexibility, that is you can enter user-defined fields  and update the corresponding totals (Profit Center / Segment / Region). Many standard reports can evaluate the information from the user-defined fields.
    Due to the new document splitting function  (Online Split) you can create financial statements, if required, at the company code level as well as for entities, such as the Profit centers / Segment.
    Using the u201CDocument splittingu201D function (online document split), you can create balance sheets for company codes as well as for further entities such as the profit center . The balance is then set to 0 for each document for the profit center.
    There are no longer any time-consuming reconciliation tasks between FI and CO  for the end of period, since in real-time in Controlling, the system transfers cross entity processes into the new general ledger.
    Transactions 3KEH and 3KEI  from the classic Profit Center Accounting for maintaining proposal profit centers for balance sheet and P&L accounts are no longer used to set the profit center.
    Display of receivables and payable's per profit center real time ( if document splitting is active).
    Detailed information for the setting the Profit Center accounting in the New General Ledger:
    Define the update of the characteristics u201CProfit Centeru201D and u201CPartner Profit Centeru201D in the ledger by selecting the scenario u201CProfit center updateu201D.
    Define the field u201CProfit centeru201D as a splitting characteristic in the document splitting.
    Set the u201CZero balanceu201D indicator again for the added field u201CProfit centeru201D and you therefore have to create balance sheets on the profit center.
    Activate the required entry field check to ensure that the profit center is set in all postings.
    EC-PCA Profit Center Accounting u2013 Profit center accounting forms an interface between the operative controlling (CO) applications and the Enterprise Controlling (EC) module It reflects the actual and plan postings from operative controlling and settlements components with which it is in targeted in real-time. It then summarizes this data according to profit centers, which reflect the internal structure of areas of responsibility within the company code

  • I did re-set my password and when I click on Install for Mavericks, I still get a box for "administrator password" and it still won't accept my new password. Is there a difference between my Apple ID and the administrator password they're asking for?

    I downloaded Mavericks and it won't install. I did re-set my password and when I click on Install for Mavericks, I still get a box for "administrator password" and it still won't accept my new password. Is there a difference between my Apple ID and the administrator password they're asking for? I never had an administrator password-- I just hit enter and have never had a problem before with previous installations. I'm on an iMac, from 2007, running Mt. Lion (version 10.8.5). I've been looking for other's posts who may be having the same problem, but haven't found any. Can anyone help?

    Ugh. The 'no password, no work' thing is a recent Apple development. I ran into it on my system and ended up having to do a clean install on a partition I fully erased.
    I suppose, if you have the ability to, go online and look up how to burn a bootable DVD image. Download the 10.8.4 image then use the Disk Utility to make a boot image of it. You'll need a dual-layer DVD or a USB drive (or memory stick at least 8GB) If you've got an optical drive, burn the disk, if you've a USB device, use that.
    Then get a pocket drive and copy your important files off the system or let Time Machine do a full backup.
    When the backup is done, insert the disk and hold down the C key until the machine boots off of the DVD. At the point you get to the start window, go to the menu and choose the Disk Utility.
    In the Disk Utility, reformat the drive. You go to the actual DRIVE (not the Macintosh HD, but the root above it that is the actual hard drive device)
    I always do this and *partition* it into several volumes, the benefit being, you can store all of your music, documents and importans stuff on that secondary storage volume you make - it will have it's own index and then the first volume is where you put the OS and it will have it's own index as well. That way, if the OS throws a wobbler and you need to reinstall, you don't lose your data.
    Depending on the size of your hard drive, it is good to give your OS partition at least 60GB and optimally 100GB, and the rest for storage.
    Name your volumes, use the little box sliders to manually size them or put that number in the size window, select for the format, Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and hit Apply and then the Disk Utility will quickly create your new partitions.
    Once finished, quit the Utility and it will return you to the OS installer. Select the volume you want to install to and it should start up and install.
    Once the installation is done, you'll get the new machine startup then you MUST put in a password for the computer. Once you're in, and to the desktop, don't bother with any Mountain Lion updates, go right to the App Store and get the Mavericks update and let it install the app to your Applicaitons folder, then do that install.
    On a side note, there MAY be a way to make a disk image from the Mavericks application and avoid the entire Mountain Lion step.. I honestly do not know, but a bit of hitting the search engines may find out if there is. I think that if you looked for "make Mavericks boot disk or boot image' you may find something.
    Good luck!

  • What is the difference between Classic and Extended Withholding Tax

    Hi,
    Can some please tell me what is the difference between Classic Withholding and Extended Withholding Tax. How can I look at the Withholding Tax deducted from a particular invoice?
    Number Guaranteed.
    Thanks.

    Dear Prem,
    Withholding tax is the basically a tax withheld during the Vendor payment. So when making the payment to vendor the amount will be deduct (i.e withheld tax)
    from the invoice and paid. The customer is actually the tax to tax authorities.
    you can visit for more info.
    Withholding Tax
    For the config steps you go to the IMG path FI > Financila accounting for the Global settings > Withholding Tax
    Withholding tax configuration is done by FI person.
    Hope this helps you

  • Differences between Classic BW and HANA on BW?

    Dear Friends,
    can we discuss here what are main difference between classic BW and HANA on BW?
    Please share your thoughts who was involved in RAMPup.
    already know some differences IMDB DSO, Cube, still some gaps are not clarify till i install BW on HAN
    thanks
    rao

    First of all , HANA Enterprise Extend edition DOES NOT Meets all  BW features.
    There are no best scenario, it is dependent on scenarios.HANA SPS3 scenarios would be great fit  for Agile Data mart however BW on HANA would be great fit for EDW scenarios.
    For users who already have BW with BWA, BW on HANA bring performance improvement on the other side of equation (ETL side)  along with query improvement.
    At high level, following are some of techinal issues with using HANA SPS 3 as "One fit for all" :
    1. Currently, there is no reporting tool available which can recogonize variable functionality of HANA. One may use universe variable functionality however the functionality will not provide all exhaustive options.
    2. Currently Hierarchies cannot be recogonized by any of reporting tools.
    3. Currently Data Level security options in HANA is limited.
    Another dimension to consider is if you have planning application,Integrated Planning is currently supported and BPC will be supported soon (the scenario is only possible BW on HANA).
    Hope this is helpful.
    PS:
    Regarding HANA 1.0 SPS3, for your below scenario:
    SAP & non SAP  -  BODS 4.0 -- HANA 1.0 SPS3 -- BI 4.0( Any front end ODBC support )
    you will need BODS 4.1 version.

  • Difference between Classic RE and RE-FX  (Real Estate Management)?

    Hi all,
    I am in a product developement team for developing a industrial Solution for HomeBuilding, for that we require Real estate(RE) Management Component....
    So i want to know some of the basics of the RE....
    Can someone explain me,
    <b>1) The difference between Classic RE and RE-FX.
    2) Now which we have to use for Homebuilding.
    3) what are the prerequisites for using RE or RE-FX.
    4) From which version they are available. can we still use classic RE.
    5) What is the difference in using RE Management as individual application and as a part of Homebuilding....
    </b>
    Hope your answers will be as simpler and eloborate so as to my understading as a fresher in this field....
    I Expect more links for online resources, presentations and Documents if any...
    Thanks in advance....
    Regards,
    Karthik D

    <b>So you want to know some of the basics of the RE....</b>
    Real Estate Management module is more robust in managing Real Estate properties for activities and processes like leasing, property maintenance like manging repairs etc (when attached to Plant Maintenance module). You can also use it for Lease in's. (caution: please associate 'renting' wherever lease is mentioned, not to get confused with lease of machinery or financia lease etc.)
    The <b>main</b> master data in RE are like  Business Entity,Property,  Buildings, Rental Units and Leaseout. These are called RE-Objects and they are also <b>Controlling objects.</b> For example let's take Spenzer Plaza in Chennai and you are the owner. The whole Spencer Plaza will be a <b>Business Entity</b>. The land in there will be created as a <b>Property</b> and the building structure as <b>Building</b>. The several floors or the individual rentable portions will be created as <b>Rental Units</b>. When 'Planet M' approaches you to rent one of the floors, you create a <b>Lease out</b> with reference to one of the Rental Unit.
    The system automatically creates a schecule of periodic rentals called cash flow and it has the capabilities to debit the customer Planet M account with the rent due. etc.
    You can also maintain information to land through Land Register.
    <b>2) Now which we have to use for Homebuilding.</b> and
    <b>5) What is the difference in using RE Management as individual application and as a part of Homebuilding....</b>
    These are not used for Homebuilding.
    <b>3) what are the prerequisites for using RE or RE-FX.</b>
    You need to have FI and CO before you can use REM.
    <b>4) From which version they are available. can we still use classic RE.</b>
    4.5B onwards RE was introduced as a Inudstry specific module under FI. It became as a part of FI  from 4.6B December 1999. The RE-FX cameinto effect from Enterprise version.
    You can continue to use RE Classic even in later releases. But once you activate the RE-FX you can no longer user Classic. There is a switch to start using RE-FX.
    <b>1) The difference between Classic RE and RE-FX.</b>
    There were some restriction in classic RE that you must have an RE Objects before you can create a contract. In RE-FX these have been removed. For more information on RE-FX you can read the release notes available on SAP's help portal.
