Difference between Transaction Figures and Line Items

Hi,

Line Items & Transaction figures as main...like
in FI we have
Line Items - 0FI_GL_4,0FI_AR_4,0FI_AP_4 etc...
Transaction Figures - 0FI_GL_6,0FI_AR_6,0FI_AP_6 etc...
Now Can some please explain...
what exactly Line Items are?

How data flows from end to end in FI? i.e where exactly GL,AR,AP comes into picture..how they are internally related?
Some one please explain me in detail (with expamles if possible) and quick reply is much appreciated...

Hi
What exactly line items :
Line items are document items that were posted to a specific account. In contrast to a document item a line item only contains the information from the document that is relevant from the account view.
You can display the following line items:
Open items, Cleared items, Noted items, Parked items ,Items with special G/L transactions (in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable),Items with customer or vendor items (in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable)
You can display the line items for the following account types: Customer accounts,Vendor accounts,G/L accounts.
What exactly Transaction Figures are?
Transaction figures are the sums of line items on the debit or credit side. The balance is the difference between the debit and the credit transaction figure.
If you take General ledger
AP records all accounting transactions for dealings with suppliers(Vendors). Much of its data is obtained from procurement (Materials Management).
AR records all accounting transactions for dealings with customers. Much of its data is obtained from Sales and Distribution.
Asset Accounting records all accounting transactions relating to the management of assets.
Travel Management manages and calculates travel costs and supports travel planning and travel expenses.
Bank ledger supports the posting of cash flows.

Difference between cumulative balance and line items total in FS10N

hi,
when I am executing FS10n, I observed that the cumulative balance amount is not equal to line items total . This is due to some amounts in previous years are varying from the line ltem totals in those periods of previous years.
This is not happening with QA server only Prdn server is facing this problem. Can anybody provide me a way to solve this..!?
Regards,
AJo
I have checked the master data for the GL and the check box for line item display is selected. It has not been changed for years.

Hi Anil,
The reason for the differences that you are viewing can be various. As the differences are found in the cummulative balance then it means that the differences might have occurred in previous fiscal years. The first stetp is to find when these differences were originated: You can run report SAPF190 (in se38) for previous fiscal years, and company code in question- This report should show the differences with message "Errors" in the log. If differences are found then you have to creeate a message and send it to SAP for further analysis and corrections.(only SAP experts can do this kind of corrections - component FI-GL-GL-X)
Also bear in mind that if you did archiving in previous fiscal years then this would not be an error:
If you already did archiving and secondary index deletion on this accounts with SAPF048I. So this explains why line items balance and GL summary balance differ ! There is no programm error.
See consulting note 81489 which describes this issue:
The balance of an account results from the balance of the open items. In
connection with an archiving that has been carried out, the line item
display - used with cleared items - must not therefore be interpreted as
a balance display. For the balance display, there are separate
correspond to the display balance of the open items from the line item
display.
Having archived and deleted secondary indexes ( with SAPF048I )
for an account you can not use line item drill down as a balance
display any more for a line item managed account.
( as not all line items are existing any more in table BSIS ! )
The transactions meant to display the binding balances are FS10N,
FK10N and FD10N.
They also give you the line items details, but only of those line
items not yet deleted ( by SAPF048I ).
kind regards,
Oscar Diaz

Difference between transaction currency and document currency.

Hi All,
Would like to know the difference between transaction currency and document currency. If we want to draw both the figures from the GL account, which table can i use?
Thanks,
Mercy

Hey,
Having transaction currency and document curreny in one document would be strange.
Document currency is something you would see in a FI document, whereas transaction currency is part of a CO document.
In finance documents you would talk about document currenty and local currency for instance.
In CO documents, the currency field you can find are transaction currency, object currency en controlling area currency.
In most cases the document currency in FI would be considered the transaction currency in CO. The local currency in FI would be the object currency in CO.
Hope this helps,
Koen

Hello,
Could you please let me know difference between transaction LT11 and VL06C ? Whether LT11 can be scheduled in background job in place of VL06C.

Difference between transaction CMOD and SMOD in detail

What is the difference difference between transaction CMOD and SMOD in detail
in R3 system.

Hi Vinod,
Transaction CMOD n SMOD are 2 parts of the enhancement. Using SMOD you can search for enhancement and there component. Components includes Function Exit, Function Codes, Program,Calling Screen...so basically all exits.
Using SMOD, if you know the enhancement you can check the available User Exits. For eg. you can find out user exits and corresponding zincludes.
If you know the Exit Name for Eg. Function module exit name you can search the correponding Enhacement name here..which is important for activating exits.
CMOD allows you to create Project for your enhacement. In order to activate every exit code you need to create a project for same and activate it...Eventhough if you write a code and do not create a project for same your exit code will not reflect.
It is mandatory to create and project for exit and activate it.
Hope this will give you good idea about CMOD and SMOD.

Difference between transactions RZ10 and RZ11

Can you please tell me the difference between transactions RZ10 and RZ11

Hello Eechaneri,
RZ10 is for profile as well as profile parameter maintainance while RZ11 is for profile parameter display/change.
In RZ11 however you can change only those profile parameters which are dynamic i.e dont need a restart for change. For the ones where restart is needed the value needs to be added/changed in RZ10.

Diff. G/L Transaction Figures Vs Line Item.

Hi Guys,
Can any body explain diffrenece between "General Ledger: Transaction Figures" and "General Ledger: Line Item"
I need to prepare P & L reporting which data source will be appropriate for this.
Your help is highy appriciated.
thanks
Ajay

HI,
For P&L the most appropriate Source will be the line item(GL 4) datasource as it Amount field does not have the Cumulative Balance. This is what is required for a P&L Account. Where as in case of balance Sheet accounts, you need cumulative balance, which is present in General Ledger: Transaction Figures (GL10 / GL6 depending on the version of R/3)

What is the difference between Personnel Administrator and Line Manager?

I understand that Personnel Administrator is responsible for all the master data in Personnel Administration. Who is Line Manager in Recruitment? While administering the vacancies, what is the difference between both of them in Recruitment.
Points assured.

Hi Nivedita,
A line manager may be a chief position in OM Structure.
A person who holds a managerial position in a company or department and who makes decisions in an area of responsibility.
Line managers can act as the first person responsible for applicant correspondence.
In the Recruitment workflow, tasks requiring a decision are sent to line managers.

What is the difference between Transactions IQ01 and MIGO ?????

What is the difference between the Transaction Codes IQ01 and MIGO ???????
Moderator note - thread locked, no research and etiquette
Edited by: William Eastman on Jan 4, 2011 6:57 AM

Dear Lu,
In my understanding MB11 and MIGO can be used for a transfer posting or goods issue or goods reciept against any order or
for reversal of good's movements.Means it can be used for 101,102,261,262,311,312 etc.
But in MB1B,only transfer postings can be performed like transfer posting from one plant to another or one storage location to
another like 301,311,or 302,312,or to convert from one material to another using 309 movement,or to transfer the quality stock
to unrestricted stock using 321 movement can be performed.
