Balance carry forward not happening for new entity

Hello Gurus,
We added mid 2009 a new entity to be consolidated.
The balance carry forward assigns the last year results to retained earnings, this is the same accross all entities.
When executing the task in the monitor, there is no error message but it does no work, results end-up on a difference elimination item.
For all other entities, it works fine.
I wonder if there is a configuration that I overlooked.
Many thanks for you inpput.
Alex-

So you are saying that for all other consolidation units, the Balance CarryForward (BCF) was successful?
but for only one unit is was not successful?
- I suggest to you that one of the following has occurred;
1. there is no data against the balance sheet items for that unit (go to totals records to confirm YTD balance last year for all Balance Sheet items for that cons unit)
2. there is only data against a specific item that has been set to carryforward to the "elimination" item that you mentioned (check the BCF items to be carried forward confgiuration)
3. there is only data against Balance Sheet items that have been configured NOT to be carried forward (check the BCF config)
4. you have configured some items incorrectly as Item Type; Income Statement or Statistical instead of Balance Sheet.
5. You have missed the consolidation unit from the hierarchy for p1, 2010 (please also check the combinations if it is a matrix consolidation unit) so the BCF is not running for that unit at all
Checking these 5 should get you closer to the answer

Financial reporting and balance carry forward at Line item level

Hello
We are in the process of implementing a new GL and using it to create Balance Sheet and P&L statements in BW.
We have installed the new datasource for GL line items 0FI_GL_14 and loaded the data to a DSO. Installed the 0FI_GL_10 (totals infosource) as well.
Also we created a custom infocube on the line items DSO and want to use it to report against a Financial Statement Version. In order to do that we created a
virtual cube with the FM and added the necessary Financial Statement Item and other key figures in the virtual infocube.
Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports?
Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube? Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
How do we address the Balance Carry Forward on the Line items cube? Since the balance carry forward is done on totals only, and the cube I created is a detailed cube is it possible to carry forward balances at that level?
Also can someone let me know what is the best approach to create financial reports and give drill down capability at the document level?
Thanks in Advance
Raju Kosuru

Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports?
NO .. Its not.
Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube?
NO
Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
Yes.. SAP has delivered C10 for Totals and O14 for line items... No point in creating cube for line items i.e. on top of O14.
Balance carry forward can be done on totals only (that is how totals extractor _10 is designed), U can not do that on the Line items. Pls contact functional consultant for clarification
Best approach is RRI (Jump targets) for _10 report to _14 report to give drill down capability at the document level.

How to know whether balance carry forward has happened or not

How to know , whether balance carry forward has happened or not for a perticular GL account or for the company code as a whole?

If the account is a balance sheet account, you can merely look at the beginning balance for the same balance sheet account for the beginning of the next fiscal year FS10N. The beginning balance will equal the previous year's ending balance. Since this does not happen automatically, you will know that carry forward has not been done if a balance sheet account has no beginning balance in the following fiscal year.
If you are talking about For P&L GL accounts, you can check the acvitity in the retained earnings accounts to make sure that they have been updated for the P&L activity. You can identify the retained earnings account by looking at the master data for the account in the section "P&L statmt acct type" and pulling up the menu to see the actual retained earnings account number.
You can perform carry foward (GVTR) as many times as you want but normally once it has been ran, any postings to a previous fiscal year are automatically carried forward to the current year after that initial run.

Customer line items with balance carry forward no opening balance

Hello FI Experts,
We have ticket where the user is using a Z* Report for Customer line items with balance carry forward. In 31.01.2007 user has posted some legacy data, latter he was executing this Z* report then user can see the values posted on the same day (31.01.2007) as line items. But he was executing the report on 01.02.2007 then he was not able to see the line item as well as the values posted on 31.01.2007 as opening balance as on 01.02.2007. But if we run the report as on 01.01.2008 then we are able to see the values which are carry forwarded as opening balances. Did anyone have worked on this type of scenario?
Requirement Here Is: The values that have been posted on 31.03.2007 which are still open line items should get displayed as opening balance as on 01.02.2007.
Thanks for helping on this issue.

Hi,
Any report will get data from Tables. Please check whether the table you have used to develop this report has opening balance.
Balance will be carry forwarded only when you run the balance carry forward program. Check whether this was run for the date you have specified. This can be done in the year end.
If you are checking in the middle of the year, then the balance will not be carry forwarded.

B. Radhika.

SEM: BCS Balance Carry Forward - Concept of Period 00

Gurus:
Wants to clear a concept with you. Say for example at the end of Period 12, 2006,
B/S Account 1: $100,000
Retained Earnings: $ 200,000
And only for the Period 1, 2007:
B/S Account 1: $200 (this is a periodic value)
And Net Profit: $15
Now lets assume the Retained Earnings of Current Month = RE Last Month + Net Profit.
Now if we dont do a Balance Carry forward after Period 12 close and before Period 1 close, I will be getting this only for Period 1,
B/S Account 1: $200
Retained Earnings: $15
But if we do a BCF after Period 12 close and before Period 1 close, I will be getting this only for Period 1,
B/S Account 1: $100,200
Retained Earnings: $200,015
So the BCS gets the value in period 00 and in backend add it to period 1 to give a cumulative period 1. Period 00 is a virtual place holder for this and not be available for reporting.
Am I correct?
Thanks for your time spent,
Regards,
Arpan

Thanks Eugene!
I am sure you are correct, but not able to understand the answer for my this question from the thread you mentioned. Was thinking of BCS & period 00 concept and trying to confirm my understanding. Sorry for not able to pick up the loose thread. Still open..
Sincerely,
Arpan

Customer Balance carried forward

Hi,
We have customer whose balance is 29000 as on 31.12.2006. The carry forward is done through F.07. But the balance as on 1.1.2007 is 10000. I dont know what has gone wrong exactly. I tried doing F.07 transaction again on Test run Mode. But know it is carrying the difference amount.
The diifference was observed after 4 months and this with respect to only one customer. Tha balance sheet is tallied.
I would like to know if run this transaction F.07 again will it have any adverse effects? or it will simply carry forward the difference amount.
Appreciate your help on this. Let me know if you require any clarification.
Regards,
Mallikarjun

Hi Dasa,
I would like to come up with a view which i tested.
I did the carry forward transaction F.07 and then passed an entry in the previous year, for my surprise i saw that it got updated automatically in the opening balance of the next year. this is the reason why i have not gone for an update run in the production server thinking that there might be a duplication of entry.
In that case it would have got update if any changes have been made in the previous year, but it has not.
I n common parlance the new values also get updated automatically when you make any changes after running transaction F.07
Thanks for your insight, let me know if your further insights.
Thanks

How SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?

Hi,
I would like to find out how SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?
Income statement
Profit after Tax - 50
Balance Sheet
Retained profit (last year) - 100
Current Year profit - 50
How do i configurate 'Profit after Tax' = 'Current Year profit' in workbench? Is BCS going to store the computed results?
Balance items (ie 'Retained profit (last year)' and 'Current Year profit') by default are carry forward to next year in BCS.
Do i need to configurate 'Current Year profit' add to 'Retained profit (last year)'?
Pls advise.
Thanks.
Regards, Renee

Hi Renee,
By default, the balance sheet items are to be carried forward to next year. If you dont make any settings, both items, Retained profit (last year) and Current Year profit will be transferred to themselves, that is not correct.
You need to show the system which items are to be carried forward not to themselves.
To force the system to make the proper transfer, in UCWB go to Consolidation Functions -> Balance Carryforward -> Items to be Carried Forward.
Enter there the following information:
<b>Orig. Item__________Debit Item_______Credit Item</b>
Current Year profit____RE (last year)_____RE (last year)
Do the similar operation for all items to be carried to other than themselves items, for example dividends of the current and last years etc.
Hope this helps.

Incorrect balance carried forward

The balance carried forward was mistakenly done for 2006 again and not 2007. What a mess! any solutions for this? many thanks.

Hi,
The balance carryforward can usually be done as many times as desired. It doesnt matter if its redone until unless there's been a change in the opening balances.
Hope it clarifies.

GL balance carry forward special period 13 to new fiscal year and Rec acct

Hi,
would like to seek for your advice as below question/problem.
a) User now is doing the year end closing. Normally the closing is up to the period 12 and for the purpose of track the adjustments made by the management and auditors user post to period 13 2008 from the pervious financial year. Our concern is when perform the GL Balance carry forward to new fiscal year which is 2009 does the system carry forward the GL adjustment figure from period 13 to the new fiscal year on top of that when we perform the GL balance carry forward to new fiscal year 2009 and later on find out there is an audit adjustment that need to done and user post in the period 13 fiscal year 2008 can the adjustment auto post to the new fiscal year?
b) Can we change the Rec account in the vendor master as currently user need to change the vendor from difference Rec account which from joint venture to subsidiary account code? If involve the SPRO configuration how where should we configure? After we change the configuration does all the posting from one Rec account subsidiary will auto post to another Rec account Joint venture?
Kindly advice.

Hi,
Thank you for the prompt reply.
a)could you provide the path/T-code to view the vendor master activity screen layout configuration field status for reconciliation account should be Optional.
b)Beside,what the impact of change the reconciliation account from one to another? It is neccesary/must to do the balance sheet adjustment for change the reconcilation account?
Can we post the balance through the manual JV (F.02)with the document type is ZD(Debit Note) to post the balance of old reconciliation account to the clearing account and then change of the reconciliation account to the new account then reverse the posting of the JV? By doing so what is the impact in the system? In this scenarion do we need to do the balance sheet adjustment?
c) You mention balances from the old recon will not be posted to the new reconcilation account unless I do a balance sheet adjustment it is mean after I run the balance sheet adjustment the balance from the old reconcilation account will auto post to the new reconcilation? What other impact will effect the system?
d) If the company never run the balance sheet adjustment before and due to the scenerion mention above they run the balance sheet adjustment for the first time what are the impact in the system for the company that only have one business area and also for the company which have more than one business area?
e) What are the prerequisite step/configuation/setting need to be setup in order to run the balance sheet adjustment as the company perviously never run the balance sheet adjustment before? Kindly provide reference/document/guide.
e) Change of reconcilation account does it related/impact to the account group of vendor master?
Please help.

Balance carry forward for individual GL

Dear Expert,
Some adjustment has been done for Balance sheet item in the previous fiscal year(2011,2012,2013). Now opening balance not matching, Can we execute individual GL wise Balance carry forward ?
Best Regards,
Russel.

Hi ,
You can't run for One GL but I believe You can either for Balance sheet or P& Laccounts .
Otherwise there is no harm in running GL balance carry forward for all GLs .
SAP says you can carry forward balances as many time
Many Thanks

Hi,
When the balances are carried forward, the net of all values of the P&L G/L Accounts are transferred to the Retained Earnings Account. There is no real accounting posting done in the system for this. But when you go to the new year, the P&L Accounts are shown with zero opening balance as their balances have got transferred.
For Balance Sheet Accounts, the balances have to be carried forward to the new year and for P&L they have to be set to zero. Hence the balance carry forward transfers the net of all values in P&L G/L Accounts to the retained earnings account which is a balance sheet account.
This values can be seen in G/L Balance Report as carried forward values for the retained earning G/L.
Hope this helps.
