Need info on New Gl for a fresh implememtation

Hello,
    Kindly give your inputs on the new gl functionality for a fresh implementation. Please provide some documentation or pros and cons of it.
This is the senario, only one plant is being implemented for the time being, what is the possiblity of implementing the new gl at a later stage . If we activate the new gl can it be deactivated or if we activate can and not decide to use it and only uuse the regulat GL is that ok.
kindly provide your inputs as it is urgent and have to give my suggestions soon to the client.
points will be awarder generously.
thanks.

Ashwin,
Here are my thoughts on the new GL.
1) Parallel Accounting - This feature allows for much more seemless implementation of multiple GAAP accounting.  Previously you'd have to mess around with having accounts that are specific to different GAAPs, creating FI validations to ensure the entries balanced, and complicated reporting structures to make sure you had the proper reporting.  The only other solutions were special purpose ledgers which may have helped to separate transactions for reporting, but did nothing to simplify the chart of accounts issues.  If you are a multinational company, and will have different GAAPs, it is essential.
2) Profit Center Integration - With the new GL, Profit Center Accounting is an integrated element of the reporting ledgers.  No need for a fully independent PCA implementation.
3) Extended Coding Block - Better support for adding customer defined fields to the coding block and having full transaction processing and reporting support.  No need to implement the SPL unless you are doing some truly complicated manipulations to posted data such that you need user exits on flexible field movements.
4) SAP Stated Direction - This is where SAP is going and they aren't looking back.  If this is a fresh implementation you should consider starting out in this manner instead of performing the transition at a later date.  There are different transaction codes for the New GL than from the old GL, different reporting tables for the RW/RP, etc.
5) Document Splitting - If you need documents to split automatically for various attributes, e.g. profit centers, business areas, other custom defined fields, this is the only effective way to perform this.
I can't answer to the going back/forth  between the two, e.g. classic versus new GL, but don't see why you would be absolutely in error with going new GL.  I'd have a different opinion, but unlikely, if you were already live on the classic GL and you were contemplating going through the conversion.
I hope this was what you were looking for.  Some points would be nice if so, please.
Regards,
Kyle

  • Do I need to buy new programs for osx lion?

    Do I need to buy new programs for osx lion?

    First you need to make sure you have a supported machine, and all the current updates (Core 2 Duo, i3/5/7 and 10.6.8.)
    If you are using Microsoft Office 2004/8, then you will need to buy Office 2011. If you are using older versions of Adobe Photoshop before CS3 that are PPC only, then you will need to buy a newer Adobe CS.
    If you are running iWork 08, it will work, but there will be no support for full screen unless you have 09 version. If you use Apple software like Final Cut or Logic Studio, you will also need the latest versions to use full screen support.
    Basically, if you have any software installed that is more than 2 years old, you need to check if it is Intel, PPC or Universal. Because anthing that is listed as PPC will not work at all. And most Apple apps older than 2 years do not have any support for the new Full Screen or Versions features.
    If you want to see if you have any PPC apps that are not supported at all, simply click the Apple icon at the top, click about this Mac, then click more info. System Profiler will open, on the left side click on "Applications" and you will see a list of every installed app. The far right column will tell you KIND, Intel, Universal or PPC. Anything in the list that says PPC will not work after installing Lion.

    after upgrading to NX-OS 5.04, out snmp traps monitoring system is not generating ticket / incident for the snmp traps and my question is whether we need to apply new MIBS for that?

    Looking at the error message "The Network Adapter could not establish the connection" , It appears hostname and port may be incorrect. Review the targets.xml under E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\SAP_solman_SDB\emd and
    emoms.properties under E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\SAP_solman_SDB\config folder to make sure host ( sap_solman) and port (1527) are correct.
    As far as setting the environment variables goes, you can go to control panel -> system -> advanced -> environment variables and set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID

  • Need Info on new "IPTC Core" XMP Schema

    I have seen in quite a few places that there is a new "IPTC Core" XMP Schema, probably to replace the old IPTC binary structure and the various aliases scattered in other XMP schemas. This happened months ago, and details were to be released by the end of 2004, but I can't find anything anywhere.
    I have about 150GB of digitized photo and I once wrote my own software to insert XMP in my TIFFs/JPEGs. I already added my own XMP schema to describe my photos in a specific way, but I'd also like to throw this information in an XMP schema that is (or at least, will be for the next 10 years or so) recognized in several applications. Most important, I'm about to archive all of that to read-only media, so I'd like to do it in a proper way once for good.
    So far, it seems that IPTC is very descriptive and is what matches the more closely my own XMP schema, and don't want to have to duplicate information across several schemas such as "Photoshop" or "Dublic Core", unless that what the new "IPTC Core" is all about, but I seriously doubt it. I don't want to go with the old IPTC structure either.
    After all, if there is "so many standard to choose from", that's because there isn't actualy any!
    Anybody got any information of that new "IPTC Core" XMP Schema?

    Emmanuel,
    It's been a while since you posted your message, but here's the info in the event you haven't already found it:
    http://www.iptc.org/IPTC4XMP/index.php
    I just started digging into XMP a few days ago and am planning to write software to add/read info from image files for the automagic creation of web pages. I've been using Adobe's XMP SDK and would be very interested in hearing how you wrote your code.
    Cheers,

  • Knowing new things for a fresh support project bi

    Hi experts,
    I am new to this and we have a fresh support project which we need to know from other company1.The company1 has given support for client for some time now it is with company 2(with us).
    So can anyone plz help me what is it that i should know from company 1 regarding support project BI.
    like number of process chains and from which continents, landscape, no. of reports and and end users.some thing like this.

    Hi ,
    Below are the few main points that you need to do.
    Knowledge Transition  This should include the complete understanding of client landscape,get the required documentation for exact functional area.
    Reverse Knowledge Transition It is always a very good practice that there should be a reverse KT from your side to Com1.This will make sure that what ever you have understood from them is correct, and in case of any gaps it can be filled.
    SLA Agreement  Get a complete picture that what are the SLA's for the support and what is the criteria for a case to become a High Sev incident (SEV1,SEV2)..
    No of system supported  Sometimes there is a confusion that whether only production is supported or other environments are also supported, make this clear there can be more environments like Dev, Quality, Sandpit, mirror etc.
    Critical Business User List along with Functional Area  This always ensures that support for critical business users and their new requirements are being properly addressed.
    Object List  Get a list of all the objects in system , for support list of process chains with its frequency will be very helpful.
    Daily Process chains
    Weekly Process Chains
    Monthly Process Chains
    Yearly Process Chains
    Naming Convention Details Get the proper naming convention that is being used for client , this will help you once any enhancement needs to be done by your company.
    Regular Maintainance Activities Get a complete understanding of regular maintainance activities like data deletion, BW Accelerator Housekeeping etc,this has a major role for any support.
    Data Retention Period  Get the understating for data retention period for the BW objects thais will help in future in system housekeeping.
    Last but not the least you need to get the other general info like number of users, key query list, regression testing pack for projects,known issue resolution along with there documentation, being very close to year end is there any specific year end activity etc.

  • In need of a new laptop for a small business

    We have a small business that runs quickbooks on a desktop we are looking for a laptop that will be able to run quickbooks and go online. But I have no idea what to look at. I do not want all the bells and whistles. Does anyone have an idea of what I would need?
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    For what you need you do not need anything powerful.
    how portable do you need it to be?
    Perhaps base what you purchase based on screen size as a good place to start.
    Most of your laptops are going to have wifi and ethernet and the ability to plug in a second monitor.
    I would suggest staying away from the Netbooks.  You don't need anything robust but they are really more designed more for internet and email.  I would also suggest staying away from most tablets.   Many of them run Android and would not work in the first place, others have a scaled back version of windows that is not cabalble of runnig all software.
    Check with quickbooks to see if it will work on Windows 8.  Getting hard to find any machine that is not Windows 8.  you may have to upgrade quickbooks to a newer version.
    This one is a good price and should suffice your needs.

  • Need Info Regarding Unix Scripts for DBA's

    Hi,
    I'm a oracle DBA with little knowledge of Unix.
    I wanted to write some shell scripts which will be helpful for DBA's regular activity.
    As i'm a new to oracle with unix can any plese tell me what are all the activities can be done throgh Unix Shell Scripts also suggest me how to learn unix shell scripts quickly.
    Thanks in Advance

    Maybe it is about time you leave your ideal world, and take a reality check.
    You don't take into account, I would say all over the globe, with the likely exception of the University of Washington, companies unwilling to upgrade to a supported version of Oracle. Then there are companies who can't upgrade to a supported version of Oracle, as the third party sw doesn't support a supported version of Oracle.
    Then there are companies who are unwilling to pay for OEM and/or database control.
    My company can't afford to use OEM to manage all our customers.
    Daniel, I think I know your answers. They are, and always have been highly unrealistic. You need to leave your paradise, and stop making people frustrated, because they have to stick with the (you so often use that word) paleolithic version of Oracle that has been presented to them.
    They simply have no choice.
    In the Netherlands 50 percent of the customers use 10g, 25 percent 8i and 25 percent 9i. You can climb your hobbyhorse every day, many of them won't upgrade, simply because management doesn't want to upgrade, as it doesn't buy them anything, apart from support, which is considered unimportant, as the application 'works'.
    Apart from that, your assertion scripts aren't portable across platform is not necessarily true when you start using Perl (comes with Oracle).
    There are many tasks for which shell scripts are still mandatory.
    In fact Rman is one of them. As Rman doesn't support variables, you can't use OEM to set up a script which uses a proper tag in the backup command.
    You need scripting to reset an alert.
    You need scripting to rotate the log file of a listener.
    Etc, etc, etc.

    I am having the same problem with my HP Officejet Pro 8500. This all-in one is connected to my MacBook Pro by wireless. Everything worked fine until I installed Security Update 2009-004 1.0 this evening. Now I can print, but I cannot scan to the computer. I get an error message that says, "Sorry, scanner could not be initialized. (Scanner not found.)" The firewall is set to allow all incoming connections. Any ideas? Is there a way to uninstall Security Update 2009-004?

  • HELP NEEDED: Use a new record for a customized table as a workflow trigger

    Hi SAP Workflow Gurus,
    Good day!
    One of our requirements is to have the creation of a new record in a custom database table trigger a workflow. I read and followed the steps as indicated in this link
    http://www.****************/Tutorials/Workflow/Table/events.htm
    As a summary, here is what I did:
    1. Created a subroutine for the custom table ZPA2003 for the create event
    2. Defined this event as a trigger for the custom workflow WS90000019
    3. Maintained and activated the event linkage via SWETYPV
    Basically I tried following the instructions indicated on the link
    Note that the entries for the custom table are created via a function module.
    Now during testing of the workflow, the system was able to complete the notification message. However, when I triggered the event via creation of the entry in the custom db table nothing happened
    1. Is there a way to debug/find out whether the link between the subroutine in the table and event itself are connected?
    2. I also tried running the event trace to check the activities executed but found nothing.
    Can you guys help me check on what I may have missed out?
    Regards,

    Hi All,
    Basically these are the requirements for the work schedule substitution:
    1. Employee enters the request via ESS (custom portal transaction)
    2. Upon saving of the entry (request) in a custom  table, this should trigger the workflow at the backend
    3. The Manager should then receive a work item in his Universal Worklist at the MSS side of the portal
    4. Upon clicking on the work item, a new screen will pop up showing the work schedule substitution details as well as an interface which will allow him to enter his/her usage decision
    5. Depending on the decision, the workflow must execute the necessary notifications as well as changes in the custom and PA2003 tables
    Now, we have accomplished step 1 and I am currently in the process for step 2. Now I have some queries:
    1. For the Manager to view and approve the substitution details, I used two methods for each process (view and approve) since our ABAPer mentioned that this cannot be done in 1 function module. Is there a way to simplify this step or is it really valid that they need to be executed in 2 different methods?
    2. As per our ABAPer, function Modules only import and export variables; they do not have the facility of say having tags on the details being displayed. Hence, if the details are 10001 (Employee Number), 10/20/2011 (Start Date), 10/25/2011 (End Date) the output would be 10001, 10/20/2011, 10/25/2011. Is there a way within the function module (or dynpro interface) to show it like this: Employee Number: 10001
                               Start Date: 10/20/2011
                               End Date: 10/25/2011
    3.  Speaking of dynpro applications, do I need to still develop one to allow the Manager to view and approve/reject the request via the MSS portal upon accessing the work item via the UWL? How would the work item go about calling the dynpro application? or is this even possible?
    It would have been easier if the facility would not pass through workflows since it will be just direct web dynpro/ABAP calls. Having to include it as a work item in the UWL puts a certain twist to it
    Your inputs are well-appreciated.
    Regards,

  • Need help. New camera for student

    I need a need camera for my 15 year old girl who is taking photography.  she needs a camera with a reflex system  or a digital camera with a "M" (whatever that is).  can anyone advice which would be the best camera and best price.
    I do not wish to buy something fancy, I need something affordable and to meet  requirements for class.
    thanks for the help

    It actaully depends on the budget. There are some point and shoot camera with manual controls like Canon G12, Nikon P500. If you want one with interchangable lens than can go with DSLR cameras. Few days back Canon has announced 2 new DSLRs Canon T3i and T3 you can have a look at the Canon T3i Preview. Also it is quite possible that Canon drops the prices for Canon T2i or Canon T1i since the new one has come, so if you can wait for few more weeks than might see some drop in prices.
