FICO Reconciliation Ledger
Gurus,
we are using New GL in ECC6.0. When settle between cost centers belong to different company codes, are there any FI entries since multiple company codes are involved even though the allocations are within CO? How does it effect the recon ledger? Please explain the config steps if there should be recon ledger involved. I appreciate your help!
Thanks inadvance!
Financial documents will generate when you activate CO-FI real time integration.
Financial Accounting (New) > Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) > Ledgers > Real-Time Integration of Controlling with Financial Accounting. Here you create/adopt the varaint and assign it to company code. Further down under 'Account Determination for Real-Time Integration' you will define initerco GL accounts for posting. Also define account for realtime integration. (OK17).
As you may know when you post complete document in CO (DR and CR tied out) typically for Allocation postings, work order confirmations for example, a Financial document is generated using the GL account mentioned in OK17.
If this happens to be an intra-company posting, this account is debited and credit in FI document - thereby no impact on GL - but Dr and Cr side generally have different cost object (cost ctr/ order etc) assignments as well as profit centers in corresponding objects.
If this happens to be inter-company posting, then in addition to above, the intercompany accounts maintained in account determination also get posted to as in typical interco posting generated in FI.
Hope this helps

Vijay@Karl:
If I use TC KALA (Activate Reconciliation Ledger ) this message appears:
The reconciliation ledger for CO area AB30 has allready been activated.
What else do I have to activate?

Hi,
I would like to know what is meant by Reconciliation Ledger and How we can create Reconciliation Ledger in the SAP - RetailHi Ravi,
You can use reconciliation postings to transfer cross-company code; cross-business area or cross-functional area postings made in CO that are relevant to FI, and to automatically create reconciliation postings there. You can make these reconciliation ledger postings at any time
In the information system, you can compare the account balances between CO and FI for a particular period using reconciliation reports. In these reports, the system displays a difference for a reconciliation posting made outside of the period. The cost flow overview report is more suitable for checking reconciliation between CO and FI. To ensure that all reconciliation postings are transferred, you should only execute reconciliation at period-end, after closing all CO postings. If you execute reconciliation more than once, the SAP R/3 System only updates difference values since the last reconciliation run.
You can give me your personal Id, I can send you the documentation on step by step to be done in Reconciliation ledger.

Reconciliation Ledger AND Co Code Validation
Hi there,
We are on SAP ECC6.0 with New GL and Doc Splitting Activated.
1. I want to know whether Reconciliation Ledger is still needed to be activated. I feel not, because New GL with Doc Splitting should take care to ensure that FI and CO are always in Sync.
2. I also want to know whether Co Code Validation must be activated at Controlling Area so that the CO Objects of one Co Code do not get accidentally posted on another.
The main concern is that once it is set or activated (and the docs posted) we cannot Revert it back by Unchecking.
As per current Business needs, there is no need to have such postings where in the Books of Co Code A the Internal Order of B Co Code is used.
Please Help
Thanks
BobHi,
If you are on ECC6 and the necessary configuration for realtime integration between CO and FI has been configured, then you do not need the Reconcilliation Ledger and you can disable it in the controlling area.
If your organisation has multiple company codes and it is possible that there can be transactions between these company codes that have CO implications then I would recommend that you leave the "Co Code Validation" unchecked. For example if you enable it, you cannot raise a PO in CoCd A against a cost assignment object in CoCd B. My recommendation is to leave it unchecked until you have clear requirements.

Basis of FICO Reconciliation posting KALC
Hi Gurus,
I am not able to understand the basis of FICO reconciliation posting entries. How can i reconcile these entries?
From where these entries are coming.
In Intercompany postings, first of all customer invoice posting is done, then revenue is booked after execution of KALC and reconciliation postings. we need to clear the AR suspense account but not able to match revenue booking entry with invoice posting.
Please me in understanding this process,
Thank YouIntercompany reconciliation is done through F.2E, this will automatically knock off the AR and AP.

Substitution rule for FICO reconciliation
HI
we have activated FICO reconciliation.
During cost centre distribution cycle, we want to post the entries into seprate GL. To meet this requirement we have written substitution rule s follows:-
Pre-requisit - if GL code is XXXXXX and cost element is XXXXXX
Subsitution - GL code YYYYYY is constant
But while cost centre distribution, system still posting entries in sender GL / cost element where above subsitutuion is active in system.
please let us know the correction in above substitution.
Regards
DDHi
I dont think it so that it will work wil Substituting as GL = Constant Value.
In whihc table you are replacing GL = Constant Value?
If it is BSEG, then you need to write a user exit
BSEG-HKONT = your GL Account (please prefix ZERO to make the length of GL Account to 10)
Hope this helps,

FI & Co Reconciliation ledger issues
Hi,
Could you pl explain me Reconciliation between FI Books & Co books . what are the Configure setting required along with path . where we will see the Reconciliation ledger .
Regards
SAPCORECONCILIATION LEDGER EXAMPLE 1
When you need to drill back from the FI G/L to find which cost center was
Posted to on an expense account, the reconciliation ledger is accessed.
The need to have a CO to FI reconciliation process is a result of cross company
Code, cross-business area, or cross functional area activity that may occur in
the CO module. Order settlement or confirmation, cost center assessment, or
other internal CO movement may initiate these postings. When costs moved
internally within CO, the FI G/L is not updated because of CO use of secondary
Cost elements to facilitate the postings.
The first two steps in reconciliation ledger configuration are to activate the
Ledger within the controlling area and assign a document type. If you have an
Existing controlling area that does not have the reconciliation ledger activated,
Activate the reconciliation ledger.
Controlling Overhead Cost Controlling Cost and Revenue Element
Accounting Reconciliation Ledger Activate Reconciliation Ledger (KALA)
RECONCILIATION LEDGER EXAMPLE 2
A good receipt posting of Rs.100 has occurred on internal order 1, which is
Assigned to company code 1. One hundred percent of the value of internal order No.1 is settled to internal order 2, which is assigned to company code 2. A Settlement Cost element is used for the settlement posting. When an order
Settlement is run, internal order 1 is credited with Rs.100 and internal order 2
Is debited with Rs.100. The balances of internal order 1 and internal order 2
Are 0 and Rs.100, respectively. However, the balances of company code 1
And 2 remain as they were prior to settlement. The reason: settlement activity
Was internal to CO. No FI update occurred.
To place the FI company codes back in balance, the CO-FI reconciliation posting transaction should be run. The resulting FI postings would credit
Company code 1 for Rs.100 and debit company code 2 for Rs.100. The internal
CO activity will now have been accounted for in FI and company codes are now in balance.

When I run the Reconciliation ledger KALC in the doc not update cost centre
Hi
I have done assessment and distribution in month ending. This distribution did in 2 company codes cost centers. it was successfully posted & updated in 2nd company code cost center.
Then I ran the Reconciliation ledger in KALC month end. I was also successfully document posted in G/L account.
But Cost centre was not updated or not picking in the document.
Please give me suggestion .
Thanks
InduDear Indu,
KALC will not update specific CO objects. The intention of the reconcilliation ledger is to reconcile CO internal postings with Financial Accounting. The necessity for reconciliation arises from the fact that, depending on controlling area / company code relationship and customizing, any CO posting can either be:
u2022 Cross company code
u2022 Cross business area
u2022 Cross functional area
or a combination of the above mentioned. For these CO internal postings there will be no corresponding FI documents with the result that CO and FI do not reconcile on company code/business area or functional area level. The reconciliation ledger adjusts this by creating the relevant FI documents. I hope this clarifies the issue.

FICO Reconciliation in vesrion 4.7
We are using SAP Version 4.7. We regularly reclassify expenses to different cost centers using KB61 if they have been booked with incorrect cost centers. However, this does not update the FI entry. We also plan to use distribution/ assessment for allocation of expenses. All such transactions are within the same business area & company code.
Can this be updated in FI using reconciliation ledger (KALC)?

SangeetaNo,
There is no need there is no cange in FI for the P&L accounts -
Currency reconciliation ledger
Hi there,
i am running a COPA assessment cycle from a GBP company code into a EUR company code.
We have reconciliation ledger active between these two company codes. When executing the reconciliation ledger posting, the GBP amount on the sender side is converted into Euro. On the receiver side the amount of course is posted in Euro. The latter conversion into Euro i can understand as it is based on the M rate we use in the CO area.
However the conversion from GBP into Euro on the sender side happens with a totally wrong rate (not M) and i cant figure out where SAP pulls this from. Is the rate taken for cross company code cycles or for reconciliation ledger postings something to customize and if so, where?
Thanks
KaiKai
What is the controlling area currency? And what do you mean by
"When executing the reconciliation ledger posting, the GBP amount on the sender side is converted into Euro. On the receiver side the amount of course is posted in Euro. The latter conversion into Euro i can understand as it is based on the M rate we use in the CO area."
On sending side, GBP will be TC (transaction currency) and LC (local currency).
On receving side, GBP will be TC and EUR will be LC.
So conversion from GBP to EUR in receiving compnay will take place at ex rate specified in configuration of (plan) version 0.
Not sure if this replies. if not, send more details with the accounting entries etc so i can check -

FICO Reconciliation - Profit Center error
Hi
When my PP person is confirming his process order in COR6N, it gives error:
"Profit Center field not filled in line item two."
Then i gave default profit center to that GL account so that PP work does not stop.
When i saw accounting entry it was:
FICO Recon A/c... Dr (No cost center and default profit center which i gave)
To FICO Recon A/c (Cost center it pulled from activity)
Now i want to know why its giving error. I did document splitting settings.
My FICO Recon A/c is created as PL account (expense). I also tried it by created account as Balance Sheet account in document splitting characteristics.
Please let me know what setting i need to do
Edited by: Deepak Agrawal on Mar 10, 2012 4:40 PMHi,you need to customize doc splitting.
1.You need to clasify all accounts from future document in Document Splitting-Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting(e.g. all accounts 2000) 03000-VENDOR.
2.in IMG: Classify Document Types for Document Splitting check for Document type transaction and Variant (e.g. Doc=KR, Trans.=1010, Variant= 0001)
3.In IMG: Activate Document Splitting check assigned method(e.g. 000012)
4. in IMG- Document Splitting-Extended Document Splitting-Define Document Splitting Rule
For find your method and transaction(e.g. Method=00012, trans.=1010) and double click on Item categories(on left of the top of screen)
There'd be record with category from first step (e.g. Cat.=0300), select one and double click on Base item cat. - there'd be Category 0300 and with check box Automatically split.
I hope it'd be helpful
