FI Special ledger datasources

Hi friends,
Please tell me, the datasoruces for special ledger and special ledger extraction steps from R/3 to BW.
Thanks in advance.

There will not be any content data sources for special ledger, because the structures in SL are very specific to an organization.
You need to generate your own data source for SL.
Once you generate the data source in R/3, rest of the steps are the same as is for any other transaction data source.

Special Ledger-does delta datasource for totals table work at 4.7

Has anyone successfully used deltas on special ledger total tables at 4.7c ?
As the totals table doesnt have a timestamp I want to understand how this works?
heres the help line that appears to suggest it should work:

Hi,
I hope you have written the codes in R/3 side.And whenever the Collection Specialist Master record is changed for a particular Customer, all the newly generated Accounting Document show the current Collection specialist but the already existing Accounting Document in BW will not converted to the current Collection Specialist since the data in BW is old data and no logic is written to convert the same.
Try to incorporate the logic to convert in BW also.
I could suggest is whenever there is change in Collection Specialist Master record , try to trigger a delat record generation that updates the old accounting doc withnew master in the delta load.

Problem in extracting data from Z totals table (special Ledger)

Hi Gurus,
I am in a task of pulling in specific fields from the Z Totals Table of Special Purpose Ledger into the cube. We only need totals records and do not need line items.
In SBIW, i have generated the transfer structure and datasource for totals table as per the steps of Generic extraction.
The problem is that am not able to see all the fields (like balance carried forward, total transactions) in the selection fields screen. While extracting i choose totals records only. But now my datasource got generated and am able to see that it is active (green). But some important fields like balance are missing.
Please let me know your suggestions / ideas.
Thanks
Shreya

We have the exact same Challenge and Issue. When I view my generated extract structure 3FI_SL_ZB_TT, I don't see any of my key figures. This was created off the Special Ledger Summary or totals table.
For Instance, I need fields KSLVT through KSL16. That is, Balance Carried forward in Group currency (period 0) and, total of transactions of the period in group currency, (periods 1-16). I don't see these at all in the generated extract structure. Does that mean it must be appended in via transaction RSA6?
Also, to get the Balance Carried forward do I have to add 0BALANCE to the extract structure?
Finally, besides the beginning balance, which wiil remain constant, can I get Month-end Year To Date Balances using this approach. Note, I don't need detail from the line items table. I just want to make sure I don't need to use that in concert with a Delta and ODS to get my Month End YTD Balance. I only need this cube for Balances.
Thanx,
Joe M

Special Ledger (steps)

Hi Friends!
I need load the data from R/3 Special Ledger.
Does somebody has the 'Best Practices', 'How to guide', or the steps for this?
Which are the infocubes and datasource?
Thanks a lot!

There is NO standard content (cubes, Datasources etc) available for special ledgers.
U should create custom datasource, by selecting desired special ledger (use tcode BW03 for the same in ECC (R/3)). If u create datasource for a particular ledger (let say LB), then a datasource (tech.name: 3FI_SL_LB) would be created in source system and u should replicate that into BI.
Based on the custom datasource, u should create infosources, DSO & cubes
Business content for FI-SL

SPECIAL LEDGER DELIVERED CUBES

Hi all,
We have a requirement to load data from Special purpose ledger data from totals table to capture the year-end balance for consolidations purpose. Is there any standard cube delivered where I can load the data?
Please dont link me to Title reporting cubes .. they are meant for media specific industry, and not applicable to regular Special ledger.
Thanks,
Sri

Special Ledger: Open Line items are not being loaded in BW

Hi all.
We are loading Special Ledger information from R/3 to BW, and for many accounts, the data is not reconciling between the two systems.
We have found out that none of the Open Line Items are being transferred.
Do you know which could be the cause for this?
Thanks and Regards

Hi Daniel,
Could you give some more details about the extractors and the "Open Line Items"?

General Ledger Special Ledger out of balance *URGENT* Material Ledger???

We've activated Material Ledger in a company code in Jan'07.
Accounting document created because of 102 Movement type FI document looks fine but in Special Ledger document dollars against Group currency are posted to Price Difference account? This is not happening for all 102movement type documents but i couldn't establish the pattern! Any help would be highly appreciated.
Some background:
Company code and Controlling Area both got USD as main currency.
This problem is sporadic and with 102 movement type only.
Materials causing issue got Price control 'S' and Price determination '2"

Hi Raghu,
Probably I am mistaken; I was talking about SPL field movements and user exits used there. you can check that through transaction GCB2 where ledger is assigned to a company code and then u can drill down to activity and field movement assigned to the activity and can find if a user exit is used to post to a price difference account.
Let me know if I am talking about relevant stuff here. If it is with SPL then I can help u more.
Thanks,
Kumar

Go live of a new special ledger

Hi,
I need to implement a special ledger, and the company FI is already in production. The problem is that I need to start to work with the special ledger on the date 01.01.20XX, and if I pass the orders on 01.01.20XX the company is still going to enter information (adjustments) in 12.20xx -1 and I don't want to have information of the prior year in the special ledger.
I want to know if is possible to set the special ledger to be actived in a specific date.
In addition, which is the process of the go live recommended by sap to start to use a new special ledger when the company is already in production.
Thanks,
Cecilia

Actual Line Items for Special Ledger

Hello,
I wrote an report to show FI-SL balances.
In addition to that, now I need the actual line Items for them (table TRACTSLA)
I've found a transaction called KE5Z, which is for PCA line items.
Is there also such a transaction for special ledger line items, which I can reuse?
Thanks in advance.

New GL or Special Ledger

We are in the midst of upgrading our environment to ECC 6.0 but we are taking on a Financial Re-design effort - I am looking to leverage the NEW GL to remove some of our dependency on a CO-PA reporting design and I am hearing from some colleagues that they would like to use - the Special Ledger to support the new Financial reporting requirements u2013 but I feel the NEW GL is the way to go with the design since it is more integrated with standard reporting u2013 What are your thoughts about continuing to use the Special Ledger functionality over the New GL functionality in ECC 6.0 ?
Moderator: Please, search SDN

Hi,
Definitely, switching over to New GL rather than continuing in conventional SPL. New GL has lots of advantage and flexibility. Please go thru the documentation AC210 - New General Ledger Accounting for more details or refer below mentioned link.

FI-SL Special Ledger Extractor (Delta not working) Issues

Hi,
We are creating extractor for Special Purpose Ledger using standard SAP methodology.
Step1: Goto Transaction BW01 --> select the Summary table ---> Check for total records and line Items and then execute. This results in extrators created for totals and Line Items.
Issue 1: The Summary table eg. ZLTST has special ledgers Z1, Z2 and ZA where Z1 and Z2 are for spot balances and ZA is for Average Balances, the issue is we dont see any extractor for ZA (we do see extractors created for Z1 and Z2 both totals and line Items)
Step 2: Goto transaction BW03 ---> select the totals extractor and double click
Issue 2: When you double click the check box to Activate Delta Update for Z1 and Z2 (totals) is disabled???
If anyone has configured Special Ledger Extractors in past for release 4.7 and higher please let me know the process to set up delta

Hi Gilles,
As you are a FI-SL consultant, can you provide me peformance issues on FI-SL?
I posted a thread on New G/L and FI-SL performance
My apologizes to post that question on this thread.

Special ledger plan data exctraction

I'm trying to extract special ledger plan data on a line item level.
We have a custom defined Z -starting special ledger tables defined in our system:
T -table (summary table)
A -table (actual data on line item level)
P -table (plan data on line item level)
I can extract the actual line items from our T summary table through the standard SAP defined special ledger extractor.
I have received a response from SAP that the standard extractor can only extract plan data on a summary level.
I have decided to try to create a custom extractor that will extract the items through a query from the P - table.
(you cannot extract directly from the p -table as there are currency/unit references needed from other tables that seems over complicated).
I'm also a little bit puzzled with our special ledger configuration, P - table seems not to have any items, but still plan data exists in the system. (possibly in the GLPCP table?)
Would someone have a clear idea in terms of special ledger plan data extraction?

Hey Dominic,
I'm pretty sure the folks at SAP would have an issue with being quoted here in the forums. If you want to post some kind of a summarization of their response, that's probably OK.

How do I get a special ledger doc to create from a PCA distribution?

We are looking at using PCA distributions. Execution of these cycles must create a special ledger document. It's my understanding this is done by assigning the appropriate activity/bus transaction to the special ledger. The activity is PCAD. When I try to assign this activity to our special ledger via GCL2, PCAD is not included in the list of possibilities for assignment (non-assigned activities that can be assigned). We currently use cost center distributions and those transfer to special ledger via assignment of activity RKIV to our special ledger. Not sure what the trick is to PCA distributions. Any clues?
Thanks for your response.

Hi Judy,
The activy PCAD is related to Component EC-PCA and is possible for Ledger 8A.
In Order to to bring the Distribution cycles related data meaning the EC PCA Records with Activity PCAD, you need to setup Roll up ledger with appropriate settings. Create a roll up ledger and execute after distribution cycles execution during MEC.
Hope this clarifies the point.
