Difference in Open Balance As per Trial Balance and General Ledger in SAP

Dear All,
1 ) Whle generating trial balance in SAP B1 for one Business master there is a difference in Opening Balance as per Trial Balance and as per General Ledger how ever closing balance in matching.
Difference As follows
Report Name      ob cr     ob dr           dr                   cr                                  CL
General Balance          614536     19237612.34            18650320.01     1201828.33
Trial balanceB     4521743.19          19237612.34       13514040.82     1201828.33
Is it possible  the open balnce should be same in both report. The opening balance as per GL report is correct.
2)  I have run the period end closing for Apr- 2010 to Mar 2011 after that I generated the traial balance for Apr-1-2011 where the opening balances for expense account  and revenue account is showing technically after period end closing the balance become zero for all closing balance revenue and expenses accounts.
Please note that there are some entries in revenue and expense account in on 1st apr. 2011.
Please guide on this.
Regards
Aarati Kollur.

Hi,
I think you should re-visit the selection creteria for the Trial balance.
The Display Opening Balance has two options. If you select from 'Start of Company activity', then it will include every balance of previous year.
Check for the Display Closing balance option as well. As you have performed the Period End closing, the checkbox options can have an impact on the outcome in the report.
Check the selection again.

  • Fault found with opening balances output on Trial Balance report

    When running the Trial Balance report and adding "Opening Balances" and taking the "OB from Start of Fiscal Year" option, the relevant opening balances are not shown from the closing balance of the prior period.
    All balance sheet accounts should always show a "brought forward" balance if one exists, whereas P&L Accounts should only carry balances forward over monthend boundaries, resetting at the point of a yearend. This is not the output provided by the report.
    This issue has been checked on numerous patch levels (including the beta release of 2007a SP01 by a support consultant) and returns the same problem.

    Hi Julian,
    I checked the functionality by myself and I have two findings:
    1) that the Trial balance displays in the opening balance balances for the P&L accounts from previous period.
    2) On the other side there is a functionality "Add closing balances" on the Trial balance selection criteria with option "Closing balances before Selected Period Only" which would adjust the presented opening balances for P&L accounts in point 1.
    Based on your description I understand that Global Support Center knows about the issue, so I think the point 2 could be used as temporary workaround till the system is corrected.

  • Difference in Trial Balance & Legder report because Zeero opening balance appearing in Trial balance for some accounts

    Hi Experts,
    When I am generating System trial balance report, it shows null in opening balance column for some of accounts while ledger for respective accounts are showing correct figure of opening balance.
    And because of this my trial balance showing wrong figures
    Also, I have checked it through query report, it showing same opening balance figure as ledger report.
    (Attachment for trial Bal, Ledger & Query reports for one of the account are attached here)
    I have checked all selection criteria in Trial balance report, but nothing is working.
    Please suggest me any solution for for above issue.

  • Opening Balance Missing from Trial Balance

    Hi Experts,
    I have a query with the calculation of the Trial Balance in SAP.  I have the following simple scenario:
    G/L Account 101010 is a Balance Sheet account and has 2 entries:
    £50 Debit on 01.08.08
    £1000 Debit on 20.08.09
    I think it is fair to say that the Opening Balance for 2009 for the account 101010 is £50 Debit. 
    However, when running the Trial Balance for the period 01.01.09 to 31.12.09, the Opening Balance is not included in the report, even when I select Opening Balance for the Period: OB from Start of Fiscal Year.
    If I select Opening Balance for the Period: OB from Start of Company Activity OR do not select a start date, the £50 is included.  However, the P&L items on the report then show the postings prior to 01.01.09.
    Please advise how I can run a Trial Balance which displays the following:
    1. Balance Sheet GL Account Balances including Opening Balances as at the start of the Fiscal Year
    2. Profit and Loss GL Account Balances with balances for the current year only.
    Thanks
    Greig

    Hi Jeyakanthan,
    Thanks for your answers.  However, you misunderstood my question - I want both scenarios on the one report!
    In effect I want a Trial Balance which lists Balance Sheet accounts including their balances from the previous period AND Profit and Loss accounts with balance for this Year only.
    This type of Trial Balance is a true picture of a company's position.
    Thanks

  • Difference in GL account balance & Balance showing in Trial Balance

    Hi,
    Actually we found that in  balance of a Gl account in FBL3N and balance in FS10N as well as in F.08 ( Trial Balance ) not matched with each other.
    Can anybody suggest how can it be possible.
    I have checked there are two documents which are affecting the Gl account balance in FBL3N but not affecting the same in Trial Balance due that there are diffference in Amount showing in Trial Balance and Amount showing in Gl account.
    Pls suggest the reason.
    Thanx,
    Sandeep

    Hi Sandeep,
    After running the T/Code F.08 i.e. for Trial Balance if there is a difference then run the T/Code F.03 - GL Account Summary. This report will show you the GL's because of which there is a difference in the Trial balance.
    Also if you find particular GL who is showing the differences in the Line Items"  (i.e. FBL3N report) and in GL Balance (May be FS10N - Master Data) then see the Master data of that GL in T/Code - FS00 - to find out the changes done in that GL . One of the change could be "Line Item Display". If we disselect this option then transactions get posted but will not get reflected in FBL3N (Line item display) . Final Amount (of FBL3N) will not match with the GL Balance (FS10N or Master Record)
    We are also facing same problem. Finding the solution (ABAP Program) to identify the entries made in between the disselection & again selection  of "Line Item Display".
    If you know the solution pls. share
    Assign the points if useful

  • Stock opening balance missing on Trial Balance report

    Hi all,
    A client is having a problem with their trial balance report. The report does not balance and the problem seems specific to the Stock account in the Assets drawer which does not show the opening balance.
    They are running a report from the start of the company's business activities. For the first year, it's not showing the OB nor debit and credit balances. For the next year, it's not showing the OB but shows the debit and credit balances, same for other years.
    What could be the cause?

    Hi
    The most common issue will be not having correct selection criteria.Can you  play around with some selection criteria .
    One of them would be  Checkbox - Hide account with no posting
    Hope this helps to reolve your issue

  • 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

  • Account analysis/trial balance

    Hi Gurus
    We have a situation where by when we run the account analysis report,it doesnt return the correct balance as per trial balance, the accounts in the trial balance are correct and shows an amount more than what is on the account analysis,what could be the problem.
    any assist will be greatly appreciated

    Hi Grace
    Future dated payments are the post dated cheques (in layman's language). For example - When we take some office space on rent, we need to pay monthly rent for it. Generally, the owner of the office would like to have the cheques provided to him on the date of agreement dated for the respective month (as a matter of security). These cheques will bear the date for the respective months. Lets say you enter into an agreement on 01-May-2010 for one year, you will provide 12 checks dated 01-May-2010, 01-Jun-2010, 01-Jul-2010 etc. All these checks would be post dated payments.
    These payments do not reduce the cash/bank balances as on the date of issue. This happens on the date of maturity of payment (check date). These payments are entered into the oracle system by using the payment method "Bills Payable" or any similar payment methods.
    The accounting for these payments (at the time of recording the payment) - Supplier Liability Dr. and Future Dated Payment Liability credit. It will not have much impact on the trial balance except for the fact that the liability code combination would change -- from supplier liability to future dated liability. On the date of maturity, when you run the report to matrue the bills payable, the status of the payment changes to negotiable and then the accounting takes place - Future Dated liability dr... and cash/cash clearing credit.
    Hope this explains. Let me know if you have any further question or ned any further clarity

    The same gl shows different values in fbl3n,fs10n & trial balance statement

    Hello,
    There could be one possibility.
    Line item display has been activate at a later stage for this account.
    Go and Block this GL account for posting in FS00
    Make sure that you have put line item display to this account
    Run RFSEPA01 program in SA38
    Remove the posting block on the account which you have set in FS00
    Now it should tally FBL3N and FS10N
    Thanks,

  • Opening Balance only for Assets and Liabilities in Trial Balance Report

    Hi SAP B1 members,
    Following is my query :
    I would like to see the Opening balance in the Trial Balance report only for Assets and Liabilities and not for Revenue and Expenses.Though the other details such as Debit,Cumulative balance etc should be seen for all Assets,Liabilities,Revenues and Expenses.Kindly help.

    Hi,
    You can try the option of running the Trail Balance for Assets and Liabilities with the Opening Balance checkbox and the other for revenue and other drawers without checking the Opening Balance.
    Export the values to Excel and consolidate the reports to get the required result(if that is what is needed).

  • Trial balance reports not matching (F.08 & S_PL0_86000030 / S_PL0_86000028)

    Hi,
    I'm facing an issue with the trial balance, while running the T.Codes S_PL0_8600028/30 and F.08. The balancing figure as per s_pl0_86000028/30 is say for example 66890 and the balance as per F.08 is 66853 for the fiscal year 2008.
    In both the cases the balances as per the debit and credit sides are the same i.e., the trial balance is matching repectively in each of the cases.
    In fact, in the company we have been using S_PL0_86000030/28, however there is an issue of amount being seen in the account Inter Segment Clearing or PRofit Center Clearing account.
    And so, as an alternative I'm trying to use the T.Code F.08 where the issue of Inter segement clearing is not there, however there is a mismatch between the balancing figures of the above stated reports.
    There is the above mentioned mismatch where the total balance even after excluding the Inter segement clearing account (GL account) and running the reports exists
    Please share some insights on the same.
    Regards
    Soujanya.

    Hi,
    Yes. I do have the amounts by which it is differening between each of the respective GL accounts. The point is, the amounts that show the difference are the closing balances and so to identify the particular transaction for the amounts is quite challenging.
    In fact, I've tried running F.51 for each of the GL accounts, however over the year there are places where similar amounts are posted for more than one time.
    Like, if there is an amount of XYZ that is showing up the difference for a particular GL, then when I try to filter on that basis then I can see this XYZ amounts for 5 times in the whole year. To drill down to the right amount is where I'm facing an issue.
