New Gl - Parallel ledgers

Hi
If we maintain the non leading leadger in new GL , how posting go to new GL,
If i post GL document in F-02 in the non leading ledger..will that go to leading ledger also.
If we maintain non leading ledger ..do we need to post to that ledger separately..and do we need to maintain separate no. ranges for non leading ledger.
How to see the reports relating to non leading ledger.
help.sap.com

Leading Ledger: Any postings to this ledger will update all your parlell ledgers.
Non-Leading Ledger: If you do not want to post the transaction to Leading and only to Non-Leading ledger, Use TCODE FB50L.
Non-Leading Ledgers Number ranges path - SPRO - Financial Accounting (New) - Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) - Document - Document Number Ranges - Documents in General Ledger View - Define Document Number Ranges for General Ledger View.
Hope it helps
Thanks

  • Parallel ledgers in ECC 6.0

    Dear Friends,
    We are in ECC 6.0 version and wants to configure Parallel ledger in ECC 6.0 for our client which comes under new GL accounting concept. Before configuring we need to give demo to our client including some sample entries in SAP.
    I know the basic difference between parallel accounting in 4.7 with parallel ledgers in ECC 6.0 and the definition for leading and non-leading ledgers.
    I only need to know the configuration part as well as front end entry and what are all the concepts involved in  parallel ledgers like foreign currency valuation, asset accounting, inventory valuation etc., If you are having knowledge/worked in parallel ledgers, could you please share your knowledge so that it would be helpful for me as well as for others.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    Dwarak.

    hi,
    ECC 6.0 New GL Functionality
    1.Activate the New General Ledger Accounting by a single click on the clock icon
    2.You will reach to change view "activation of New GL A/cg" detail screen and tick the checkbox and save.
    3. After activation of New General Ledger Accounting, you exit the IMG screen When you re-enter , you find that a new node is added Financial Accounting (New)
    4.After activation of New General Ledger Accounting , a new sub node appears in the IMG structure.
    This sub node is Define Segment
    The menu path is:
    SAP Customizing IMG ---> Enterprise Structure -
    > Definition --> Financial Accounting --> Define Segment
    In this IMG activity, you define your segments.
    If you then define your profit centers, you can enter an associated segment in the master record of a profit center. The segment is then derived from the assigned profit center during posting.
    5.Activation has created a new field in Profit Center Master Record : the SEGMENT
    6.Leading and Non- Leading Ledgers
    In General Ledger Accounting , you can use several Ledgers in parallel. This allows you to produce financial statements according to different accounting principles. A ledger uses several dimensions from the totals table it is based upon. When defining Ledgers , one must be defined as the Leading Ledger . The Leading Ledger is based on the same accounting principles as that of the consolidated financial statements. It is integrated with all subsidiary ledgers and is updated in all company codes. This means that it is automatically assigned to all company codes. In each company code, the Leading Ledger receives exactly the same settings that apply to that company code : the currencies, the fiscal year variant and posting period variant .
    You must designate one of your ledgers as the Leading Ledger. It is not possible to designate more than one ledger as the leading ledger.
    The menu path is :
    SAP Customizing IMG -
    > Financial Accounting ( New ) -
    > Financial Accounting Basic Settings (New) -
    > Ledgers -
    > Ledger -
    > Define Ledgers for General Ledger Accounting
    Clicking on the checkbox identifies one of your ledgers as the Leading Ledger.
    7. Activation of Non Leading Ledgers
    Non Leading Ledgers are parallel ledgers to the Leading Ledger . They can be based on local accounting principle, for example. You have to activate a non- Leading Ledger for individual company codes. Non- Leading Ledgers can have different fiscal year variants and posting period variants per company code to the Leading Ledger of this company code.
    The menu path is :
    SAP Customizing IMG -
    > Financial Accounting ( New ) -
    > Financial Accounting Basic Settings (New) -
    > Ledgers -
    > Ledger -
    > Define and Activate Non --Leading Ledgers

  • Parallel ledgers and currencies in Fixed Assets

    Hi all,
    I have a difficult scenario in Fixed asset related to parallel ledgers and parallel currencies. This is the one.
    We have
    Area 01-1- Loc Cur-L1
    Area 06-0- Grp Cur (takes values from 01)
    Area 30-3-Loc Cur-L2
    Area 31-0-Grp Cur (takes values from 30)
    Area 33-6- L1  This area is derived from 30-01
    The issue here is that when I post for example a retirement. First with ABAVN values from area 01 are posted to every ledger. If I check the posted document and I have the values of area 01 in local currency column and the values in area 06 and in group currency column. But, when I run ASKBN to post area 33 which is the difference between 30 and 01, the local currency value is correct (30-01) but the group currency amount is not correct. This value in group currency is not 31-06, is the local value multiplied by the Exch Rate at the retirement date.
    How to do to have the group currency in a derived area as the difference of the group áreas which are related to the original one (31-06 in my case)?
    I hope my question is clear!!
    Thanks a lot, Iu2019m complete lost.

  • Parallel Ledgers

    Hello Gurus,
    Can a few GLs in the Leading Ledger report to a Parallel Ledger?
    The second question is, suppose a Company is based in India as well as has operations in USA. In India it has to comply with Indian Accounting Standards & for USA it has to come up with statements as per US GAAP.
    It may be so, that USGAAP does not recognize a particular kind of expense but India Accounting Standard does.
    Now, since we are having Parallel Ledgers, the same expense ought to reflect in both the places.
    Is there any way, that we report the expense in the Leading ledger that is in Indian currency & followes Indian Accounting Standards, while we prevent its reporting in the Parallel Ledger for USA.
    Would be very grateful for any reply.
    Thanks in Anticipation.

    Hi Rolf,
    Thanks a lot for your helpful answer & sorry to assign your well-deserved points, late [I was out of office].
    It would be very nice of you if you may answer a few clarifications to your answers.
    Q: Can a few GLs in the Leading Ledger report to a Parallel Ledger?
    A: You select the GLs that you only want to post to an additional ledger
    > How to do that?
    ===========================================================
    Q: Is there any way, that we report the expense in the Leading ledger that is in Indian currency & followes Indian Accounting Standards, while we prevent its reporting in the Parallel Ledger for USA.
    A: You specifically choose the ledger group (customizing) when you are posting an expense that is recognized in one of your AS and not in the other. Not choosing the ledger group means that the expense is posted to all ledgers.
    > When posting an expense, how & from where do you specify the Ledger Group?
    Are you talking about defining seperate Document Types & specifying the ledger group for the Document Type?
    You reply will be highly appreciated.

  • FERC or New GL Parallel ledger?

    Hi Gurus,
    I'm on a ECC6.0 new implementation in a utility company, I haven't worked on FERC  before so my question is can we use new GL parallel ledger instead of FERC but still be able to meet the regulatory reporting requirement? 
    And which approach would you recommend, FERC or parallel ledger?  And do they both still need BCS afterwards?
    any help is appreciated.

    Hi:
    I can give you some pointers. I worked on FERC implementation for one of our oil & gascustomer. We did not implement SAP FERC module. However we built a paraller ledger (based on special purpose ledger) for FERC reporting. This parallel ledger was a roll-up ledger with periodic transfers. For FERC codes, we used the JIB/JIBE codes of JV accounting and these codes were derived using user exit at the Field movement level. And the reporting was using report painter on top of this new ledger.
    That was special purpose ledger in 4.7. Similar to that you can design non leading ledger in NEW GL to have parallel FERC reporting.
    Hope it gives some idea.
    Thanks.

  • New GL-Parallel Ledger

    The client I work for uses SPL to address statutory reporting needs of multiple countries and through multiple user exits we handle filtering of some postings in to these ledgers and/or create additional statutory specific postings. Also, in SPL, it lets us handle filtering of some postings that originates in other modules like MM/SD/Asset accounting…
    But, with NGL/parallel ledger, any posting that post lead ledger gets posted to parallel ledger and there is no standard functionality for filtering the postings for parallel ledgers specially the ones from other modules like mm/sd/asset etc.
    However, because statutory needs are different in each country, we need the flexibity.
    Does anyone have idea how to handle this
    Regards
    Jyoti

    As of my experience i know that if u post to the one specifice Ledger like Leading ledger it will update only to that ledger only.
    Until unless u have the different ledgers in different ledger groups u can not post to the different ledgers at a time.
    A posting can happen to the multiple ledgers which are grouped to the Ledger group.
    This is the essence of the Parallel ledgers and Ledger Group concept.
    Coming to your issue, You can categrize the different ledgers accordingly the need of the client and make sure the different ledger groups were selected properly when they are posting the entries.
    By this way you can eliminate the entries in different ledgers or do filtering.
    Hope it helps .... assign points if useful...

  • Managing Parallel Currencies in Parallel Ledgers

    Dear colleagues,
    We use all three parallel currencies for the leading ledger in our project (we deal with SAP ERP ECC 6.0 with new ledger). And now we have to get one more valuation (4-th) in order to manage accounting in averaged rate of exchange. We were going to set a non-leading ledger with proper currency/valuation. But the point is that in accordance with sap documentation we can only specify the parallel local currencies specified in the leading ledger as parallel currencies in the non-leading ledgers. Alternative currencies are not possible.
    In this way Special Purpose Ledger (FI-SL) seems more probable to solve our problem. But it is said that sap is not going to support FI-SL at some time in the future. Perhaps, you faced up a similar problem or you have some experience in this way or any idea will be much appreciate.
    Thank you in advance,
    Elena

    Hi Elena,
    It is possible in the future that the don't support FI-SL, but in 98 the  say the same about BA that you have to use profit center accounting for the same reason that they don't want to support thisi in the futer (it is still there), the same is with CO-PA that this will be replaced in BW. But there a lot of (large) customers who are using this.
    When SAP don't support FI-SL) longer then have to give an other solution. Perhaps BW? (transfer your data to BW and recalulated it there based on exchange rate). You can use this as option to!!!!!
    Think about the concept R3 is only for tranaction data and BW for reporting

  • Asset accounting with parallel ledgers.

    Hi SAP gurus,
    My client has a scenario where assets have different accounting principles, as example, buying an equipment is considered as investment in one perspective and as expense on another.
    To do that we have created two depreciation areas (01 and 10), assigned to 0L - Leading Ledger and Z0 - Non-Leading Ledger. Both depreciation areas share the same GL accounts, as we can separate them by Ledgers.
    All the assets acquisitions are made through PS projects, so we settle to AuC end than to Fixed Asset.
    When we settle the AuC to Fixed Asset, both depreciation areas are getting APC values on both ledgers. How are we now able to "correct" this APC value just on the Leading-Ledger and transport to a cost account, so in that perspective this value is considered as expense?
    Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards.
    Cristiano Monteiro

    Thanks for your answer. I didn´t think about that possibility, and it´s a very good idea.
    I will not use that, because I remember that I can make a manual posting via ABSO transaction with a transaction type that is limited to one depreciation area, and than with ASKB make the GL posting.
    Now I´m getting a problem with this. I settle the WBS to fixed asset and the GL document is posted on both ledgers. On asset master data, the value of APC is shown also on both depreciation areas.
    Now my problem is that if I run ASKB transaction it will try to post again the settlement document but only on non-leading ledger, which will duplicate the values.
    How can I solve this?
    Thanks in advance
    Kind regards

  • Parallel Ledgers - different posting variants - document posting

    Hi Experts,
    In our scenario, we have one Leading & one Non-leading ledger and both the ledgers have same Fiscal year varaint but different posting period varaint.
    1. If we close the Posting period variant for the non-leading ledger and keep the PPV open for that of the leading ledger, and if we post an entry to all ledgers (i.e. without specifying any ledger group) will the entry get posted to the Non-leading ledger as well, even if the PPV for the same is closed?
    I found that the system still posts the entry to the Non-leading ledger even if the PPV for the NL ledger is closed. The PPV specifically assigned to the Non-leading leadger only holds good when the entry is specifically post to that ledger or to the ledger group in which it is a representative ledger.
    Can some one please suggest and give your valuable inputs.
    Thanks,
    M

    Can you please indicate what your requirement is ??  You should be aware through Posting Keys, you can define whether it relates to a Customer, Vendor,  G/L Account or Material and not for document type.
    thanks

  • Historical Rates for Non Leading Ledgers.

    HI Team,
      We are using ECC 6.0 and we have New GL & parallel ledgers in our system. We are facing some issues while running Depreciation.
    For Company code (CC is XXXX and currency is CHF and Group Currency is USD) we are using 01 (Book Depreciation) and 15 Tax deprecation for XX ledger (Non Leading Ledger) with 3 (area post Depreciation only).
    While running the Depreciation for Dep. Area 01 it is taking the Historical Exchange rates posting Dep in group currency but whereas Dep 15 is taking the current day exchange rates due to that we are getting balance when comparing the OL ledger with XX Non leading ledger.
      Can you please check and let us know how system can consider the Historical Exchanges rates for Non leading ledgers
    Thanks
    DB

    HI Hugo Segovia,
      Thanks for your response.
      The below chat is the current configuration in our system
    Dep.Area     Name Of the Dep.Area                     Real Dep Area                    Posting to G/L                        Target Ledger Group
    1     Book Depreciation                 Yes                                    1.Area Post in Real Time                Leading Ledger  XX
    15     Tax Dep Area                  Yes                                  3.Area Post Depreciation only    Non Leading Ledger  XY
    32                 Book Depreciation in Group Currency     Yes     0.Area Does Not post     
    As per your suggestion I have to modify the Dep.Area 32 from Area does not post to Area post in Depreciation area and I should assign Non Lading ledger  XY to Dep.Area 32.
    In this case the amount which is posted in Non leading ledger will be duplicate as it will be posted as per Dep .Area 15 and Dep.Area 32 also. How can I control this?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Thanks

  • Activate Parallel Depreciation in New GL after New GL go-live

    Hi,
    Out clients are looking to first go-live on New GL without activating parallel posting of depreciation for different ledgers.
    As such in the first year they will post depreciation only to the leading ledger.
    The proposal is to create 3 ledgers but not assign parallel ledgers to any depreciation areas. Only the leading ledger will be assigned to the Book Depreciation Area.
    In a subsequent year they want to activate posting depreciation to the IFRS and/or Statutory ledger by assigning the depreciation areas for IFRS/Statutory Ledgers to the respective ledgers.
    Has anyone tried this? What are the pros & cons. We have advised against this and recommended to go-live at the same time. However the time to revamp depreciation keys and other rules is against us and hence the question.

    Ajay,
    Thanks for the input. I gave an alternative proposal. We assign new depreciation areas (copies of the book area) to parallel Ledgers and commence posting to allledgers at the same time. In the initial year the values posted may be idnetical. Starting another year when all the definitions are ready for the new areas we change the depreciation keys in the asset masters and also do a catch up depreciation run to adjust the values and/or use ledger specific posting transactions to adjust the values. The paralles ledgers start posting different depreciation values from the year of change.
    Do you see any apparent flaws? I am thinking in this case SAP will not need to come into picutre when we change the depreciation keys and adjust the values.

    2.Is there any program which can split the closed line item in accordance with the new G/L of the pervious period (Closed or Open)and Year .
    3. Whether B/S items will also be splited (closed & open) accordingly.
    4. PCA is not been activated in our organisation,is it mandotary to activate the PCA for activating new G/L.
    5. If so ,can i deactivate the PCA for a specific company code. We have 28 Company codes.
    6.Any technical difficulties will arise while performing the migration .....If so,pls mention in details.
    7.What will be the approp time for me to swithing from classic to new G/L.
    8. SAP recommends 3 to 6 month before the fiscal year end the migration activities  has to be started,in that case,whether my year end closing has to happen on 31.10.08 itself and what about my posting that i have to post for the pervious fiscal year,once the New G/L is activated.How the system will treat the old entries for previous year after avctivating my New G/L?
    9. We also want to split the balance of Business Area  to New Segment or PCA(if activated).
