Financial Statement Generator -Migration Challenge and gl_defas_assignments

Hello,
Currently we are hoping to migrate FSG reports from Release 11 5 7 to Release 12.
My understanding is:
a. Standard concurrent program "Program - FSG Transfer" has a restriction in migrating Oracle FSG reports from one Release version to another release version (as per metalink note - 108236.1)
Thus, it means that FSG report has to manually migrated.
I am in the process of analyzing - to figure out how XDO_TEMPLATES_B and xdo_lobs database objects are linked to GL_DEFAS_ASSIGNMENTS table.
When I login to applications:
i. Navigate to GL Super User responsibility,
ii. Navigate to Report -> Define -> Report, to launch the standard form 'Define Financial Report'
iii. I could see data here in the applications without any issues
Now, when using Help -> Diagnostics -> Examine -> System, Last Query, I find that the data is fetched from GL_DEFAS_ASSIGNMENTS_V object.
Now, when I login to sql session via TOAD and when I query this database object GL_DEFAS_ASSIGNMENTS_V or the underlying table GL_DEFAS_ASSIGNMENTS, I am not able to see any data inside these objects.
User guide or Reference guide or TRM appears to have no information on these database objects i.e. GL_DEFAS_ASSIGNMENTS_V and GL_DEFAS_ASSIGNMENTS.
Can you please advise why I am not able to retrieve any data from these objects when I query from back-end ?
Thanks,
Santhosh

This could be because of the VPD policies kicking in.
With R12 MOAC, you would need to set your policy and then query the view. Otherwise it will not return any data.

Financial statement generator & Oracle Reports Manager

We are moving into Oracle Apps R12.1.3 on Solaris. Most end user machines are Windows 7 & going to be Windows 8. Some are Windows XP. Majority have Microsoft 2007 and some have Microsoft 2010.
Financial Statement Generator (FSG) reports are called from GL Super user as well as Oracle Reports Manager. Attempt being made to open FSG reports directly in Oracle Reports Manager > Excel with drill down.
Experiencing errors (of VB) , after some patching seeing Blank Excelsheet. Though same FSG report can be open with Values in Oracle Reports Manager > html and pdf.
Any body experienced this in recent past.
Rgds

Hi Hein,
Thanks for the reply and I do have access but apart from standard/customized reports, sometimes users create their own reports using FSGs where they pull GL data (No sub-ledgers) by defining rows and columns and many more features.
For eg: pulling up trial balance report by cost centers
Is there any equivalent of these Financial Statement Generators in SAP.
I was thinking about defining the "Variants" in each report and run variants but then thats not limited to GL, I guess
Thanks in advance....

PCA Financial Statement (Profit/Loss Account and Balance Sheet)

Hi Experts,
I have the following question on preparing PCA Financial Statement (Profit/Loss Account and Balance Sheet), ECC6.0, with document splitting features.
Let say I started my business with the following GL accounts:
Bank A, USD6,000
Bank B, USD4,000
Capital, USD10,000
My company does have 2 departments (cost centers), and the above Balance Sheet GLs, cannot be identified / separated in the cost centers level. My cost centers to profit centers is one-to-one, which are cost center A = profit center A, and cost center B = profit center B
I have Sales to customer of USD12,000, and Receipts from customer is USD7,000 at Bank B, therefore (customer balance is USD5,000).
I have also expenses:
Expense A: USD1,000 (cost center A)
Expense B: USD800 (cost center B)
Double entry for expense is Dr Expense, Credit Vendor.
I paid 50% of each of the expenses using Bank A, which are: expense A, paid: USD500; expense B, paid: USD400
My Financial statement without profit center should be as follows:
P/L Account:
Sales, USD12,000
Expenses, USD1,800
Profit: USD10200
Balance Sheet:
Bank A: USD5,100
Bank B: USD11,000
Customer: USD5,000
Vendor: USD900
Profit: USD10,200
Capital: USD10,000
Question:
How can I report the above financial statement into PCA level, which are Profit center A and Profit center B?
Note: I can't hardly separate Bank account, Sales (revenue) into Profit center level (Assuming I am only using FICO module, No SD/MM Module).
I can't use FAGL3KEH to differentiate the Bank Account.
During data entry for revenue, I can't have valid reason the revenue belongs to which profit center.
Kindly advise on is there any way (with logical reason) to make financial statement into profit center level.
THANKS IN ADVANCE.
Sbmel.

Basically You/Business need to Identify the need for Profit center wise Balancesheet is required or not? If Balance sheet at Profit center level is required then whether they have to decide whether can seggeregate every account balance to a profit center is possible or not? In other words on a cut over date you should have a Profit center wise Trail balance in place. Once it is in place rest all is possible.
What I can understand from your question is how to identify Gl balances against profit centers foor balance sheet Items. If it is not possible then you can create a corporate profit center and post all transactions to that profit center.
When comes to cash / Bank/Customer/vendor balances the system Identifies the item belongs to whihc profit center and in case cross profit cneter transactions are involved the system uses the "ZERO BALANCE CLEARING" account as an intermediate account for posting the data. By this one profit center will be Dr. and other will be in Cr as far as ZERO BALANCE ACCOUNT" is concerned and at company code level this GL balance is always ZERO.

Two financial statements at product wise and location wise below comp code

company code have number of products and they are being sold in various locations. here management wants to get financial statement both product wise and location wise below company code. the problem is that their is no field to post for BA, profit center and segment in MIGO posting and Billing document in standard SAP
please inform me is it possible to get financial statement both product wise and location wise below company code. if it is possible please provide answer.
Thanks & Regards
Arjun

Financial Statements can only be drawn at Company Code, Business Area, Profit Center, and Segment levels only.
If you want to have product wise, then the same must have mapped / designed against the one otherthan companyt code.

Financial Statement Generator in SAP FI

Hi,
Oracle has FSG that unables users to generate reports out of Oracle GL. Is there any equivalent report generator in SAP for users to create reports on ad-hoc basis.
Thanks

Financial Statement Generator (FSG) and translated flexfield values

Hello.

Sorry, pressed 'Enter' before completing initial question.
How can I make FSG to take translated 'Description' value of General Ledger flexfield segment (e.g Chinese)?

Pull backend information from Financial Statement Generated Report

My users created a Balance Sheet report and are asking me how some of the data is calculated by Oracle since they are wanting to match it to another system that is mirrored to Oracle. I am actually looking to see how a certain column set is put together. In our system the column set is Balance Sheet External and when you click "Define Columns" the Amount Type under Balance Control is BAL-Actual(FY Start). How do I find where this is pulling it's data from?
We are using 11.5.10.2
Thanks,
Jon

Hello.
Without knowing exactly which information you want to retrieve is difficult to give you an example. Are you searching for the balances of a certain account in a certain period? Beggining balance? Period balance?

Which info object should be used for Financial statement line (BPS and BCS)

Hi experts.
A rather easy and straightfoward questions for someone out there.
In BPS as we know, we use the info object '0SEM_POSIT' (account groups, or financial statement line) to summamrize and store amounts from groups of accounts or for example data from COPA's value fields, and which is already an attribute of the info object '0ACCOUNT'.
I am told that there is another BCS related info object called '0CS_ITEM' that serves the same purpose, and uses it for the same reason for the purpose of consolidations.
We'd obviously like to use just the one of these info objects because of planning and reporting.
Can someone out there with knowledge in BCS recommend which one to use, and from their experience in the past how they combined the use of both (if you in fact did use both).
Also, is it true that in BCS you cannot use a two characteristic BW hierarchy for consolidations, and it can only consolidate a one characteristic BW hierarchy?
Thanks dearly

Hi Eugene,
I kind of understood what you said, but just incase, let me explain my situation a little clearer. In BPS I'm using 0SEM_POSIT for two reasons:
1) To create hierarchy based on 0SEM_POSIT info object, and making each node postable. This is because on this project we don't plan at account level. Only at a kind of account group/financial statement line level. So each node is postable so that they roll up to the higher levels.
2) I will have 0SEM_POSIT as an attribute of 0ACCOUNT (which is standard delivered as an attribute in BW). This will ensure that I derive the actuals at that the same level as the planned. This is required for two reasons:
                           a) I can have the actuals as comaprison column in the Planning
                               layout.
                           b) I can report on the Actuals vs. Plan at the postable node
                               level in BW queries.
So having explained this, what I understood from your explanation is:
a) I can continue to 0SEM_POSIT as my info object for my postable node hierarchy, and
b) I can also use 0CS_ITEM as a consolidation unit specifically for BCS only.
So what I really didn't understand is:
1) your explanation of the mapping of 0SEM_POSIT to 0CS_ITEM, and what this mapping actually does. For example does 0CS_ITEM derive the values from 0SEM_POSIT because of this mapping? Can you explain this a bit? Is Datastream a tool in BCS by which BCS readinf financial data from other components?
2) Can BCS use a 2 characteristic postable nodes hierarchy as a consolidation unit? For example, if I create ONE hierarchy using 0SEM_POSIT, and 0ACCOUNT. Both will be postable at any level of the hirarchy.
Can BCS consolidate using this 2 characteristic hierarchy structure? OR, must it use 0CS_ITEM info object?
3) How does both 0SEM-POSIT, and 0CS_ITEM co-exist together, in terms of planning, consolidation, and reporting. For example if I report using the 0CS_ITEM hierarchy, then I will not be able to read plan data, because plan data is posted on the 0SEM_POSIT? and vice versa......? This question kind of ties in with 1).
Sorry for the long message, but I wanted to make sure I explained it better.
Thanks for your help

Financial Statement Export Completed with Error

Submit 'Financial Statement Export' with the parameter as following:
Ledger Name:& Ledger Name
Report: &Predefined FSG Report
Period: &Period
Rounding Option:Calculate Then Round
Segment Override: Null
Accounting Date:&Date
Template:Balance Sheet Export
Template Locale:Null

The error message is '100:ORA-01403: no data found'.
However, through 'NS2011 (Financial Statement Generator)' & 'Financial Statement Generator (XML Report Publisher)' ,Data of the same '& Ledger Name'、'&Predefined FSG Report'、'&Period' could be outputed successfully. And the template of 'FSG: Basic Template' was chosen since Balance Sheet Export couldn't be selected in ''Financial Statement Generator (XML Report Publisher)'.
The questions are,
1、How the error ''100:ORA-01403: no data found'' happened?
2、Why is the two value set of 'Template' different?
3、What't the mean by 'Destination File Name'?
Many Thanks,

Any way to export a financial statement to another SAP system?!?

Hi (and besides a Happy New Year to you all),
does any of you know a way to easily export a financial statement / P&L structure and to import it to another SAP system (like the way you can export and import Profit Center reports)?!? Both systems do have nearly the same accounts.
Any help will be appreciated (and awarded)
Thanks in advance,
Christian Kaes

First, no, you cannot thread between files, so you would need to move pages from one file into the other.
Second, you can certainly export the book to PDF. There are two "flavors" of PDF, interactive or print, but either one can be used to make a PDF from the entire Book. Choose Export Book as PDF from the Book Panel flyout menu, choose your flavor as appropriate, then choose a location and finally the options.

Financial Statement SQL Queries

I'm trying to build our financial statements in Crystal Reports, and I'd rather not have to build the logic from scratch. Where is the code stored in B1 that runs the balance sheet and income statements? I'd like to use that as my base SQL for Crystal Reports.

Derek,
The queries that are used for these reports are either embedded in to a Protected Stored Procedure or is part of the Core SAP code. Accessing them directly would not be possible.
The option available to you has been explained by Peter.
Let me know if you have further questions

Badi for creating financial statement

Hi People
I have a financial statement in Excel file and I need to create a new financial statement in transaction OB58.
Is there anyway to do this by ABAP programming?

Hi,
(not a solution, some hints...)
The FM FI_IMPORT_BALANCE_SHEET_TEXT copies FSV texts into internal table X011Q.
The FM FI_IMPORT_BALANCE_SHEET_POS copies FSV values into internal table X011Z, X011P, X011S and X011V (try the function in SE37 for understanding the contents of theses internal tables).
I'm using these functions in some programs for finding the general accounts under a given node.
I have seen the existence of FM FI_EXPORT_BALANCE_SHEET_TEXT and FI_EXPORT_BALANCE_SHEET_POS, so I think it is also possible to copy the data from internal tables to FSV, but these functions are not released and I don't know any official program in which they are used. I didn't see any documentation for the usage of these functions, so I should not use them ...
(I'm working in 4.7)

How to multiple/ parellal sets of books to generate more than one financial statement based on different (or the same) accounting principles.

How to multiple/ parallel sets of books to generate more than one financial statement based on different (or the same) accounting principles.
My Client needs Parallel Ledger in SAP B1 similar like SAP ECC. Is this functionality available ?

Dear Mr. Nagrajan,
Thank you for your response. I have already gone through documents but not able to understand. Is there any setup for this ? or its just work around i.e. using template and special field in JV i.e. Ref. 1 /2
My doubts :
I understand that Chart of Account structure is one and common for IFRS and other accounting method. We need to create only those account separately ( 2 times with prefix like IFRS revenue account, GAAP Revenue account).
Now at time of entry, Assume some entries / adjustment are specifically for IFRS and not for other ledger. In this case, What need to do ?
You have mentioned about DTW approach but do we need to insert all JV's again with other ledger ?
Someone suggested that if any entry which are specific to IFRS Ledger, We need to user Ref.1 /2 column or Transcation code column and in which we can put IFRS
Based on this, Need to create 2 seperate template for IFRS and other ledger for all report.
This is my understanding of Solution in SAP B1. Please help me to clarify my though process
Please do needful.If you have done implemenation and if you can share doucment, it would be great help.
