Hi,
We use parallel ledger in TRM and create two valuation area 001 and 002 for IGAAP and IFRS. We Initialization of Parallel ledger.
We post both valuation area for accounting but system pickup diff. number range as per valuation area. My document type same use TR for accounting.
How to use same number range and same number generate in both valuation area?

Hi,
what is the intention for having 1:1 document numbers in different Valuation Areas? Imagine, it is very likely, that you have different number of flows (e.g. having only FX-valuation in VA 001 but FX & Title-valuation in VA 002) which - as a consequence - results in a deviation of document-# in FI.
As you have a drilldown-possibility into FI in TPM13 & TPM20, in my eyes there is no real need (...and in praxis no real chance) to keep posting documents 1:1 across VAs.

Parallel currency and Parallel ledger activation

Dear all,
In one of our client places, they have done the parallel currency and parallel ledger activation in the middle that is after 1 month of go live. Because of this they are not able to clear the already posted documents. When they try to clear, all the documents are going to dump. Please suggest what has to be done.
Thanks & Regards,

Paralle ledger activation in the middle of the year is very dangerous for the previously posted open items.
At the time of clearing system try to post the entries in the parallel ledgers. But parallel ledger not available in the previous postings.
It will result adverse results in most of the transactions.Please check and take necessary action

Post Accounting Entries only in Parallel Ledger

Hi All,
I am activating Parallel Ledger (Parallel Currency: USD) in a SAP system which has already gone "LIVE".
In our data conversion exericise, migration GL accounts will be created where all USD translation differences that arise will remain in these migration GL accounts.
Thus I would like to ask if there is any transaction T-Code where I can clear the USD translation difference amount sitting in the migration GL accounts,i.e. to post only in the Parallel Ledger without creating postings in the General Ledger (Leading Ledger).
Thank you for your time!!

Hi Sunil!
Thank you for the prompt feeback!
F-05 is very useful. But I can't seem to find a T-Code with FB50L.
Are we looking at FB50? If it is FB50, where can I determine in the document entry the Ledger Im posting to. By the way Im using SAP 4.7.

Double Posting in Parallel Ledger

Hello Gurus
We have Non-US company codes and have various depreciation areas assigned to it. Area 01 is main assigned to leading ledger 0L and area 30 is USGAAP assigned to L1 ( parallel Ledger). Area 01 Post real time and Area 30 is "Area post APC Directly and Depreciation.
Everything was working fine. Area 01 and L1 were getting correct postings. Recently due to client requirement for treatment of their Composite assets, we make certain adjustments in area 30 and area 01 differently. Like area 01 does not get any posting and area 30 get some adjustment posting and we do through Z transaction types. To achieve this we had to run periodic posting and thus assigned ZA document type to company codes of Mexico.
With this what is now happening is
When we post 10000 MXN to asset, Area 01 gets 10000 but area 30 which is L1 gets 20000.
To resolve this issue we tried various options like, If we
Assign Area post depreciation only to area 30 then it works fine but then our treatment of composite does not work
If we assign area post APC and depreciation on periodic basis, then it again doubles but doubles when we run ASKBN.
Please advise. It is real serious issue here.
Thanks

Hi Jean,
now I am astonished. Ok, I do not know your Support tickets, and I don´t know which bad OSS notes you mean. But your statement that you always get double postings is not correct if you follow the guideline how to set up your scenario with 2 different ledger (groups).
The documentation can be found in the SAP Help Portal here: Parallel Accounting in Asset Accounting .
There you find the link to the chapter "Parallel Ledgers in Asset Accounting", which contains detailed information and configuration steps to fulfill this requirement.
If you want to post 2 areas to G/L to different ledger groups, then the official SAP proposal is to use the so called "Ledger Scenario". In that scenario your alternative valuation does only post depreciation to G/L, so that you do not get double postings. If you have valuation differences, which appear automatically through different APC amounts or different value adjustments at retirement, then a derived depreciation area will post these differences ledger specific to your alternative valuation.
I admit that this scenario is not the most convenient, but it will provide the full functionality of parallel valuation at ledger (group) level.
The only real big limitation existing is that you can not really use different fiscal year variants within the valuation areas. But the basic requirement under which this thread was opened should work without problems.

Markus

Parallel Ledger APC Values Via A Clearing Account

Hi Folks,
Would appreciate any help you can with this.
Situation :
Fixed Assets is not integrated with Vendor Payables.
Fixed Assets is set up with Real and Delta Depreciation Areas.
When an Invoice is posted in Vendor Payables the offset is to a Fixed Assets Clearing Account - this Document updates the Leading Ledger and all Non Leading Parallel Ledgers with the same amount.
When the amount is posted against the Asset via ABSO the offset is the Fixed Assets Clearing Account.
The problem is :
If there are different APC values between IFRS and Local GAAP this leaves the amount equal to the Delta posting sitting in the clearing account for the Local GAAP Ledger.
Is there any way to change this behaviour or a different process to be followed ?. not sure what can be done with this delta amount left in the Ledger specifc clearing account.
Thanks,
Andrew

HI,
I am not sure if it is helpful but what you can do is to define an asset movement type limited to a valuation area, which allows you to post for example acquisitions only in on valuation area, but not in the other one.
Thus you can post ABSO with one asset movement type for one valuation area (APC-value X) for another valuation area use another movement type and post APC value Y.
Anyway the difference of the APC value (thats not ativated) needs to be posted to an P&L account.
Maybe there are other/better suggestions from other people.
Best regards, Christian

Migration of Inventory in Other Currency in Parallel Ledger

Hi,
Is it poosible to migrate opening inventory balances in Parallel LedgeR? I'm not talking about the balance but the Inventory balances in MM.
Please respond. I couldn't find any from the forum.
Thanks.

There are various options to handle this scenario.
1) Extract finanaical from SAP in GBP - Most of the report provide this funcationality (But this not efficient way)
2) Define local currency 2 in your system as GBP - for this you will need to define this SAP customizing.
and then maintain indirect quatation exchange rate. Every time system post document GBP currency will get updated automatically. In controlling you will need take care of controlling area accordinly as well.

Parallel Ledger in "New Ledger"

Hi,
In the new ledger we have the facility of posting to a parallel ledger,by way of non-leading ledgers
We maintain this parallel ledger to meet a specific accounting principle,say,US GAAP,IFRS etc.
In IMG we define the "Accounting Principles" and assign them to the ledger groups.
Once done the system posts the documents to this particular non leading ledger.
My question is:
Every accounting standard has its own peculiar accounting treatment in terms of valuation etc.How does the system understand these priniciples and standards and treat them accordingly?
For example, i configure IFRS as a non leading ledger.
IFRS has its own peculiar set of accounting principles.
How does the system appreciate,understand these principles and treat them?
In other words i would like to know if the database of these "accounting principles"are defaulted in the system or Do we need to default them?
Pl.reply me specific to the question.I dont want any help on menu path,config.etc.I have already done this.
Thanks.
Regards.
Ramesh

Hello Ramaswamy,
The very precise answer to ur question is as following.
if the database of these "accounting principles"are defaulted in the system? No
Do we need to default them? Yes
In IMG when u define the accounting principles and assign it to ledger groups it is only the skelton u define where in additionally the database is required to be put specific to the defined accounting principles.
To give u an analogy I can sya that it similar to defining Financial statement version to some extent.
Hope this helps.

How to correct an acquisition posting in an parallel ledger

Hello,
I have the following situation:
We are using New GL concept and have setup one parallel ledger (16)
We have setup two depreciation areas, one pointing to the 0L, the other one to parallel ledger
During vendor posting of an asset the capitalisation is done in both ledgers posting to the capex balance sheet account (standard behavior). For reasons the customer wants to redraw the capitalisation but only in the parallel ledger, he wants to post it as costs ( P&L account)instead of the balance sheet account.
Whats the best approach here?
Many thanks

Hi You Need to define following settings:
Assign Depreciation Area to your Parallel Ledger i.e. Non Leading Ledger
SPRO>IMGFinancial Accounting (New)> Asset Accounting> Valuation>Depreciation Areas>Define Depreciation Areas
The GL Column will be 3 and Target Grp will be 16 in your case
Now Create a new Transaction Type which will be copy of your 101 and restrict this Transaction type for your Depreciation Area whihc is specific to your non leading ledger.
Now post ABSO and ASKBN
Please let me know if you face any issues.
Regards,
Vivek

Parallel ledger - activation

Hello,
we have new General Ledger (ECC 5.0) for two years. During this year we decided to use paralel ledger for IAS / IFRS purposes from 1.1.2007 backwards.
We have activated the additional parallel ledger according to SAP documentation. Now we need the balances and open items for all accounts, but we can´t find the way. In customizing are the tools which ask for migration plan. The migration plan is possible to create only for data migration from classic GL into new GL. We tried to find some solution within OSS, but notes describe the problems which appear during data migration from classic to new GL.
I would like to ask you if it is possible to create parallel ledger during the year ? How we can fill new parallel ledger with balances of accounts from previous year and periods for year 2007?
Has anybody with this any experience or do you have any new documentation ?
thanks in advance
dana schlachtova

Paralle ledger activation in the middle of the year is very dangerous for the previously posted open items.
