Meaning of 'cumulative balance' (0BALANCE)

In business content, there's a key figure called 'cumulative balance'...
Is this used for collecting cumulative figures from SAP R/3 ?
How does BW get monthly movements? (ie, periodic movement for one month).
When loading budget values (monthly movemnts), should these go to 'cumulative balance' or somewhere else?
Thankyou,
Frederick

If you set cumulative properties for a key figure, the key figure is cumulated automatically, no matter you use "0cumulative balance".
Also, even if you use 0cumulative balance key figure, you can always restrict its "cumulative" nature. So, what is relevent is is to look into the properties of the key figure.

Opening and Cumulated Balances of PCA

Dear BI Gurus,
I am using two standard (PCA) Data Sources
<b>1. 0EC_PCA_3 and
2. 0EC_PCA_4</b> to Load data into my Custom Cube.I need Cumulated balance and Opening Balance of Actual Line Items for my reporting purpose.
There is an object 0BALANCE which is not getting populated from the 0EC_PCA_3 Data Source.
We are able to get only the Cumulated Balances of Periodic Transfer, but unable to get the Balances of all the other Accounts.
So, can anyone please help me out in getting the Cumulated Balances and Opening Balances of the Account Numbers.
With regards

For Delta update
The extract structure does not contain the BALANCE field. To get the inventory for balance sheet account, 0BALANCE can be filled in BW in den updating rules. For further information, see note 577644.

Difference between cumulative balance and line items total in FS10N

hi,
when I am executing FS10n, I observed that the cumulative balance amount is not equal to line items total . This is due to some amounts in previous years are varying from the line ltem totals in those periods of previous years.
This is not happening with QA server only Prdn server is facing this problem. Can anybody provide me a way to solve this..!?
Regards,
AJo
I have checked the master data for the GL and the check box for line item display is selected. It has not been changed for years.

Hi Anil,
The reason for the differences that you are viewing can be various. As the differences are found in the cummulative balance then it means that the differences might have occurred in previous fiscal years. The first stetp is to find when these differences were originated: You can run report SAPF190 (in se38) for previous fiscal years, and company code in question- This report should show the differences with message "Errors" in the log. If differences are found then you have to creeate a message and send it to SAP for further analysis and corrections.(only SAP experts can do this kind of corrections - component FI-GL-GL-X)
Also bear in mind that if you did archiving in previous fiscal years then this would not be an error:
If you already did archiving and secondary index deletion on this accounts with SAPF048I. So this explains why line items balance and GL summary balance differ ! There is no programm error.
See consulting note 81489 which describes this issue:
The balance of an account results from the balance of the open items. In
connection with an archiving that has been carried out, the line item
display - used with cleared items - must not therefore be interpreted as
a balance display. For the balance display, there are separate
correspond to the display balance of the open items from the line item
display.
Having archived and deleted secondary indexes ( with SAPF048I )
for an account you can not use line item drill down as a balance
display any more for a line item managed account.
( as not all line items are existing any more in table BSIS ! )
The transactions meant to display the binding balances are FS10N,
FK10N and FD10N.
They also give you the line items details, but only of those line
items not yet deleted ( by SAPF048I ).
kind regards,

Wrong Cumulative Balance in SBO 2007

Dear Experts,
I open up BP Account Balance, and notice the Cumulative Balance was accumulated with the C/D column (which is the document total for that transaction), instead of accumulating it from the Balance Due column which shows unreconciled balance due.
I have found SAP Note describing this problem as a definition. But logically, I will think that the term BP Account Balance is suppose to mean the balance due for that BP, instead of total of every transactions related to this BP (Which the system defines it currently). Can anyone explain to me the idea between this system definition.
And if nothing can be changed in SAP now, is there a work around to find out the "REAL" cumulative balance due for a BP, that is how much "unreconciled" due balance do they have?
Please help and advice. Much Thanks!
Warmest Regards,
Chinho

Hi,
As you are aware that the version 2007 had the option of partial reconciliation which was earlier not available in the 2005 version. Therefore, in 2005 Version, the cumulative balance was displayed as balance due field accumulation.
However, in version 2007A, due to partial reconciliations being available, the balance due does not display the correct balance, hence the cumulative balance displays the total of the C\D fields.
The same is the logic and the working which is explained in note no. : 1128828 as well.
Hope it clarifies.

Difference in Cumulative balance of ERP and BW

Hi Experts,
We have a report to display the Cumulative balance amount based on G/L account.
The issue we are facing here is, when we check a May month's cumulative balance in ERP side ( using Transaction code FAGLB03 by giving G/L account number, Company code and Year as 2010) we are getting 1000 EUR, and the May month's Balance is 300 EUR.
When we run our Query report in BW side for the same conditions( same G/L account, Key due date as 31.05.2010 and same Company code) we are getting the Cumulative Balance as only 900 EUR. we are missing some 100 EUR in our report for our Cumulative balance. But,When I check the Cube on which our Query report runs, I could get the May month's balance as 300 EUR.
Kindly help me to rectify this issue.
Thanks.

The cumulative balance for the GL should be stored in the key figure 0BALANCE in BW
What is the amount when you do a list cube on this KF ?
If you don't have the same as in FI-GL, there are several possibilities :
1) there's a mistake in the extraction flow (transformation)
2) you didn't update the BW infocube with the latest data

The cumulative balance displayed in FS10N does not match the sum of the det

Hello,
The cumulative balance displayed in FS10N does not match the sum of the details. For example, we have a GL disbursement account that has a ***. Balance of 8 million. The debit is 2 million and the credit is 10 million. But, when you drill down on the ***. Bal. for the current period, the sum of the details is 9 million. According to our users, the 2 balances should equal. I did a search in this forum and found 1 post stating they had the same issue and the answer was to run f.16. Has anyone experienced this and if so, how did you handle it? I'm not sure how f.16 functions. Do we have to run it for each consecutive year? I'm not a FI specialist. I'm responsible for data archiving and the users think it's related to archiving. However, we have a test system that was resynced with production prior to when archiving was done and it shows that this issue is pre-existing.
Thank you very much in advance,
Lourdes

Hello,
There is a possibility that you have activate line item display for some of the accounts at a later stage. Meaning that earlier postings were not be shown for the earlier postings but only totals will be made available. Therefore, obviously there is bound to be difference between line item report and totals report.
You need to identify which accounts are being changed with line item display at a later stage.
In case if you forget to keep GL Line item display for an account, but the posting are already made the following steps you would required to get the line item display retrospectively.
1. Note that you are NOT required to make the balance of that GL account to ZERO. Please do not confuse with Open Item Management.
2. Put the check box line item display for the account in FS00. Make sure you are entering right company code.
3. Block the account for posting in COA Segment and Company Code Segment in FS00
4. Go to SA38 and run program RFSEPA01 (Give correct GL Account and Company Code)
5. Now, remove the block you kept on the GL Account in FS00.
This will reset the line item display retrospectively.
Hope this will solve your problem.

Ravi

P&L Cumulative Balance

Hi Experts,
One of my user wants to see Cumulative balance for P&L accounts.His complaint is not showing P&L balances on cumulative basis as balance sheet balnces accounts appear to be updated cumulatively.
Here I have my own explanation:Usaully Balance sheet accounts display cumulative basis and show year to date.
and P&L accounts display only that particular period.Please clarify me.
I have used "0Balance" Key Figure for Balance sheet Accounts and "0Amount" Key Figure for P&L accounts.This is the reason user doesn't get P&L accounts balances on Cumulative balance.
Do I need to use 0Balance for P&L accounts instead of 0Amount to get show P&L Accounts on Cumulative balance.
Please advise me what I need to do to get P&L accounts balances on Cumulative balance.
Thanks,
Suryam

Problem with business partner cumulative balance

Hi
I used to used the business partner balance enqury to quickly tell customers what they were due to pay up to the start of the month. I just looked at the cumulative balance of the last transaction of the previous month and that was it. I know I could run an aged credit report but this was quicker and easier. However since upgrade to 2007A the cumulative balance does not give the amount due for a part paid invoice so this does not work any more.
Question is has anyone writen a fast query or other report that calculates the cumulative balance based on outstanding amount?
Thanks in advance
Derek

Hi!
Run this in SAP B1 Query Manager
SELECT     T0.CARDCODE, MIN(T0.CARDNAME) 'Customer Name', SUM(T0.DOCTOTAL - T0.PAIDTODATE) 'Last Balance'
FROM        DBO.OINV T0
WHERE     DOCSTATUS = 'O' AND T0.DOCTOTAL - T0.PAIDTODATE > 1 AND T0.CANCELED = 'N' AND DATEPART(month,T0.DOCDUEDATE) < DATEPART(month,getdate()) AND T0.CARDCODE = '[%1]'
Group By T0.CARDCODE
UNION ALL
SELECT     T0.CARDCODE, MIN(T0.CARDNAME) 'Customer Name', -SUM(T0.DOCTOTAL - T0.PAIDTODATE) 'Last Balance'

Cumulative balance - which table?

Hi there, I am writing a fairly simple query from JDT1, but i can't find the cumulative balance column in either ODJT or JDT1. is it in a different table or is there a formula i should write?
thanks, my example query is below:
SELECT T1.[TransId], T1.[Account], T1.[CreatedBy], T1.[ContraAct], T1.[LineMemo], T1.[Credit], T1.[Debit], T1.[DebCred], FROM [dbo].[JDT1] T1 INNER JOIN OJDT T2 ON T1.TransId = T2.TransId WHERE T1.[Account] = '[%0]' and T1.[RefDate] between '[%1]' and '[%2]'

Hello Groovy,
You can use the word SUM to sum the different values.
E.g. this sums the values of both credit and debit side and it was used in the query generator:
SELECT sum(T0.[Debit]) + sum(T0.[Credit]) FROM JDT1 T0 INNER JOIN OJDT T1 ON T0.TransId = T1.TransId WHERE T1.[TransId] = '95' group by t1.transid
or if you want the total of the column you can use:
select SUM (debit) from jdt1 where transid = 'XXX'
and it will sum the total of debit for that transid.
Please, let me know if the information helped you. If not, can you please give us more information about what you need?
Thank you.

Cumulative balance (FC) shows **** in GL report by Account

Hi,
In the General Ledger report by Account, the cumulative balance (FC) column shows **** when there
are multiple foreign currency transactions being posted to the GL account.
Understand that this is a standard system behaviour but is there a way or any workaround to find out how much balance for each foreign currency in the account?
Besides Export to MS Excel from GL report, please advise any other proposed solution.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Priscilla

Hi Thanga Raj.K,
Thank you for your response and the proposed solution.
The GL report i am referring to is by Accounts and NOT by Business Partners. Anyway, I agreed with you to write query report to cater for the report limitation.
Thanks

Report with cumulative balance

Hi!
There is a FI report for vendor ledger based on multiple profit center where a column is there for cumulative balance in the output.
Now when the user makes a subtotal on profit center the output generates based on multiple profit center but in that case the cumulative balance is misarranged and the output appears to be wrong.
what should I do to generate correct cumulative balance based on profit center.
thanx
Amit

Dear Feroz Dosani.,
Since your account has been set up as FC, only FC balance can be directly controlled. The difference between LC Cumulative Balance and the rate conversion come out of the fact: Exchange Rates are changed everyday, all conversions would be done in posting day rate. You have to run Exchange rate difference from time to time to reconcile LC.
Thanks,
Gordon

But suppose if we use 0fi_ap_4, we have business area but we get only normal balances fiscal period wise.
How to get the cumulative balances from normal balances ?

Variable for ReportSum of Cumulative Balance Due in the General Ledger

Hello ,
my Customer need in the General Ledger Report only the sum of Balnce Due, Cumulative Balance Due .
Ok, for all i find a varible for Sum of the report. But not for the Cumulative Balance Due.
In the Repetitive Area 0 is the variable 186 setting, thats ok.
But in the Page Footer when i set formula > ReportSum ("Field_with_Variable_186") the sum is the sum about all
the row and not the Summe of all the Repetitve Area´s
Can you help me, or what can we do?
Thank
Daniela

Hello Gordon,
that is my problem, the variable 186 is for the row, not the end of periode balance for cumulative balance due!
For example for the end of periode of cumulative balance, i find the variable 107 and then the report sum is correct.
The same i need for the cumulative due of all the Repetitive Area Folder in the Page or End of report folder.
Thank´s
Daniela
