GL Balances Conversion

Hello,
I am working on an R12 implementation project. The legacy system is Oracle apps(11.5.x). I have to work on GL Balances converison. we want to get all the journal details from march 2009. i dont understand do we also get the balances since then??? what happens to the balances before march 2009?? I am new to this process. Any help is appreciated.
Can i get the details of
1. interface table
2. import program
Bhavani

Hi, you'll have to use GL_INTERFACE and/or GL_INTERFACE_CONTROL table to import journal entries into general ledger.
Also, Journal Import program will be used to import data from gl_interface and move then into gl_je_batches, gl_je_headers and gl_je_lines.
you'll then decide if you post journal entries automatically or not
So,
1 - Import data into gl_interface and gl_interface_control
2 - Run journal import process
3 - Run the AutoPosting program to post Batches that were created in step 2 and are in Unposted Status.
GL Interface table doc can be found in Oracle General Ledger User guide or in MyOracleSupport web site.

GL BALANCE CONVERSION

I need help with G/L conversion of balances. We have opening balances in legacy for the gl accounts that are already set up in SAP. How do we do an LSMW to transfer those balances because they are opening balances, if we do FB50 how do we offset that account because FB50 wont let us psot without an offsetting account. WHat is the procedure for loading legacy balances to SAP using crosswalk tables to SAP via standard document entry process (FB50 or FB01)
Please provide step by step instruction.
I will also need a fucntional spec for this. If someone can provide that, will appreciate.

You can also load the balance through LSMW. SHDB is also another functionality which was available prior to LSMW. If you are not using LSMW and developing ur own upload program u can make use of this tcode for finding out the table name and field name for ur functional specs. In SHDB go to new recording. Give a name of the recording and give a transaction code say FB01. Then press recording. You will get FB01 transaction and enter the data like date company code in the require field and once you complete and save it will list all the fields used in this transaction. By this way you can write functional specs.
For the upload program u need to have separate document, which will identify how the data has been populated. say ZA. This will be used only for upload program and after this this will never be used.

GL Balances Conversion Question

Hi,
Recently I started working in oracle apps so you can consider me as a beginer.Now; I'm working on a GL Conversion project. We have balances from 2003. It has been decided that we will convert the balances from 2003-2006 and for 2007, 2008 we will convert in detail (every journal). We also use multiple currencies. My question is on extracting the balances. There are various values for Translated flag and some thing about BEQ columns.
I will appreciate, if you can tell me what balances I should extract for conversion purposes.
Thanks for your help !!
Shreekar.

Can you give me details of what you have done?? i have the same issue and i do not know what has to be done
Thank you!

GL Balances data conversion (F-02)

Hi All,
Im planning to use "BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST" for GL Balances posting.
but in my flat file there some data for one time vendor/customer, so there is no such field
in BAPI. Can i use extension for this.
or can i use BDC for whole GL Balances conversion. which method is more convinient.
Thanks in advance.
Hema

Hi,
You could use structures ACCOUNTRECIEVABLE and ACCOUNTPAYABLE for adding customer and vendor line items.
Thanks

Customer Balance Covnersion

How do we do conversion of customer deposits. In the functional spec what document type we need to provide to bring in the deposits. I dont see any document type for down payment. Do we use transaction code F-29 in place of F-22 or FB01 to bring in deposits from legacy to sap. In this case can we use the same offsett account for customer balance conversion that we are using for customer open invoices??
Thanks
Lakshmi

Ashish,
So you mean to say that we create only one customer balance migration account and it can be used for both customer open invoices as well as deposits. Is my understanding correct?
Also Ashish can you please tell me when I am transporting chart of accoutns from one client to another vis OBY9, only the accounts created in chart of accounts are transported and not the company codes accounts. What is the way of transporting them so that they get transported in COA as well as Co. Code.
Thanks
Lakshmi

GL Open Balance

Hello Experts,
I am working on open GL balance conversion and I have to extract the balances of GL balance sheet accounts and our system is in SAP R/3 4.6c.
Could you please let me know what are the tables and the logic that I have to use to get the open GL balance?
Is there any possibility that I can extract the data as of a date rather than month end like balace as of May 22 rather than May 31st?
Any input is much appreciated.
Regards,
Harish R

Hi,
- you could write an extract program or build a query based on GLT0 table
- unfortunately, it goes by period and not a spefic date
- again it always shows the period as last period of your fiscal year variant (say 16 if you use standard K4 variant)
- way to get balance as of a period is to
   a. extract/list the output of glto for a given company code/fiscal year
   b. you would find amounts in 3 currencies - TC, LC and GC
   c. and for each currency - you find BCF (c/f) and amounts for each period
   d. you need to add up BCF and as many columns as you need (if you need for 9/2009, add BCF and next 9 columns for each currency
- would suggest a abap program.
Hope this clarifies.
Rgds.

Investment management - budget carry forward

HI Experts,
When ever I am running transaction code CJCO in update run, I get a message saying " Update run possible only in closed fiscal year". If I tick the green check, it runs for a while. I am not sure if it actually carrying forward the budget or not.
I have gone through the program description which says " You can use this program to carry unused budget from a closed fiscal year forward to the next year"
I have closed year 2008 using IM27_close. I am not sure if this is the correct or not. Projects were created in fiscal year 2008. Fiscal year 2008 for in this case is from June 07 to May08.
Can you please guide me as to what are the steps to be performed for year end closing of IM and at the same time is it ok to ignore the message and continue to process it.
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
regards
Pawan

this depends mainly on your cut over strategy -
are you converting existing projects?
Is the historical postings also being converted - most likely not
if not then what happens to costing of projects - ie are you converting partial complete projects, if so without historical data how you will analyse the project costs etc for whole projects
what if you have projects over say 5 yrs - do you want to roll over budgets from say 2003?
my advise would be to allow all the financial trial balance conversion take care of the project P&L
you should only convert active projects with structures to be used form 1/1/09
create z tables for any data required for historical puposes for the drill down from standard reports or use statistical postings to build the historical data only for the converted projects

Multi-period consolidation

Hi there,
We have a consolidation process that includes the following steps:
- carry-forward of LC balances
- conversion to group currency
- carry-forward of group currency balance for equity accounts
- consolidation automatic adjustments
To ensure that closing balances are correct, this 4-step process needs to run for each month. However, if we submit 2 or more months, it executes all months at each step.
How can I run these stored procedures one month at a time when the user selects multiple months (which he may do when he consolidates a budget, a forecast or a long-term plan).
Thanks in advance,
Regis

Hi Jungho,
We tried this method but to no avail. We are now reconsidering the approach of capturing monthly flows rather than YTD flow which seems to be the most common practice.
Thanks,
Regis

Reasons for/against starting a new Payroll mid-year verses year-end?

Hello,
We'd appreciate feedback please on your experience, pros/cons of the Timeframe to start/migrate a newly acquired company's Payroll into our current Oracle Payroll processing. Our year-end is 12/31.
Our internal teams are split on whether to start processing at a Year End? verses sometime during the year - at any Month End?
thank you

If you are talking about a North American company, the easiest and less time consuming way is to start on 01-Jan-2013 or any year beggining or quarter beginning. The reason is, if you are planning for a year end go live, there will be the balance conversion process which becomes very complex if you do not plan properly. Also, you need to run the year end process to issue W-2s or T-4s from Oracle system. Instead, continue using the legacy system for Payroll till year end and turn on the Payroll for the newly acquired company on 01-Jan-2013.
Hope this helps..
Thanks

No Dolby, no DTS from my Audigy2 zs plati

I have the same behavior as described under the No Dolby, no DTS from my SBli've 24bit external. How do I get SPDIF DD & DTS out of the Audigy? All I get over the TosLink, is PCM. If I enable "SPDIF" pass through, it works, but then, no sound from my speakers.
No receiver!! All exernal devices (BluRay, ATSC tuner, etc) use the Audigy for SPDIF decoding (in). The analog output goes to an 8 channel DI box for unbalanced to balanced conversion (XLR, +4dBu, ground lift) which goes to my sound system electronics.
The SPDIF out goes to a Creative DDTS-00 for headphones and other audio monitoring.

Awful canon raw conversion for photos with dramatic (i.e. underwater) non-standard white balance

I'm shooting underwater (and white balancing as I shoot using a white disc) with a canon s90, and have noticed that the raw conversions done by aperture are way worse than those from jpegs when I shoot in raw+jpeg and those done by raw processing using the canon digital photo professional software. In particular, reds are pretty much lost. It may be a false lead, but I notice that in aperture, the rgb histogram shows a dramatic spike of the red channel on the far right (possibly clipping?) that doesn't show up in the rgb histogram in the canon software.
I'm not sure whether this is related to the plethora of threads about canon raw processing and overly green output. Has anyone else experienced this or have any ideas? I could batch convert to tiff in the canon software but I'd really rather not do that... For one thing the 16bit tiff files are so much bigger than the raws and it is an annoying extra step. Also, note that I can't just batch fix the white balance because (a) I'm having a hard time getting aperture to do it properly (possibly b/c the red channel is clipped as far as the aperture UI is concerned?) and (b) The white-balance changes from picture to picture as I change depth, which is the whole reason I white-balance as I'm shooting in the first place..
I've attached two versions of a picture, one of which I processed the raw in aperture and one of which I processed the raw (and converted to TIFF to give to aperture) in the canon software. I then exported both as small jpegs from aperture.
Canon Digital Photo Professional (correct):
Aperture RAW processing (very wrong):

>Is MS Picture Viewer a colour managed application? I don't know, but don't think so. Lightroom is however which might be the cause of your problems.
Not in XP. In vista it is color managed. From the sound of it, the problem is a bad monitor profile but you might also have a corrupt Lightroom database. You need to recalibrate the monitor and NEVER use canned profiles from the monitor manufacturer. They are almost always corrupt. As a very last resort, you can use sRGB as the monitor profile (delete any profile found in the windows display properties) but only to hold you over until you can really calibrate it. The other problems with weird errors are pretty worrisome though. Do you also get them when you start a fresh catalog?

Currency conversion - Line item total does not tally with account balance

hi guys!
we are currently going through currency conversion in Zimbabwe and we are at preparation stage. i have got 3 issues:

 -Line item total does not tally with account balance
2. i might need to retrieve some FI documents whic were archived. how do i retrieve archived documents
3. i might also be required to delete(if its an option) some records so tha line item total will tally with account balance

put a break-point @
if t_balance_items_hw[] <> t_balance_account_hw[] or
 t_balance_items_tw[] <> t_balance_account_tw[].
 perform dequeue_account.

Short text
Switch On Open Item Management by Changing Master Record
Description
This program activates open item (OI) management for a G/L account and makes the necessary changes to documents already posted. These are then displayed afterwards as open items. It does not process the open items any further. In reversed documents especially, it does not reenter clearing data in the document.
Requirements
No items can already be archived from this account.
Caution: Company policy must be in place to ensure that this does not happen.
Some G/L accounts cannot be managed on an open item basis, especially G/L accounts that are used in account determination for automatic transactions (for example, accounts set up for transactions MVA or VVA, or accounts which are posted to using posting keys set up for account type M).
Caution: Before making any changes, check that the G/L account can really be managed on an open item basis. If necessary, contact your SAP consultant.
The account must be blocked from posting since any new documents posted at the same time as converting documents and postings for this account would not be entered.
Output
When using the list log, each document that was changed is listed. In addition, the total of the changed BSIS/BSAS entries and the total of the changed documents is listed.

Balance is not zero due to currency conversion

Hello experts,
could you please suggest me in a solution of the following issue? I use f-28 Incoming payment transaction. Document currency is usd, while local currency is euro. When currency conversion takes place rounding happens and instead of e.g. 3555,14 euro 3555,15 come up. But it appears from time to time due to rounding. Because of this, debit sum is not equal to credit sum (0,01 in our case) and consequently the balance is not zero. So, system displays the message Message no. F5060 "Posting is only possible with a zero balance; correct document".
What are the ways to correct this issue?
Regards,
Alex
Edited by: Aliaksei Klimovich on Nov 4, 2011 10:06 PM

Hi,
I checked OBY6 and the check box was already set. I also want to add some details. In F-28 I use BTE 1020 in order to split amount in bseg-dmbtr field. Have a look please. We have to make an incoming payment 5500 USD - this is document currency. In our functionality we split this amount into 2 amounts: 4500USD and 1000 USD, then we convert 4500 USD and 1000 USD into EURO as euro is local currency. After those conversion I get 2 line items with 4500 USD and 1000 USD in euro in bseg-dmbtr field (4500\fursf eur and 1000\kursf eur, accordingly) instead of line item with 5500 USD (5500\kursf eur). At the end of BTE 1020 FM I get a table with line items some of them are splited as I wrote above. And because of currency conversion while splitting balance is not zero.
The only idea is to spread those difference by open item positions.
Regards,
Alex.
