Parallel currency and Parallel ledger activation

Dear all,
In one of our client places, they have done the parallel currency and parallel ledger activation in the middle that is after 1 month of go live. Because of this they are not able to clear the already posted documents. When they try to clear, all the documents are going to dump. Please suggest what has to be done.
Thanks & Regards,

Paralle ledger activation in the middle of the year is very dangerous for the previously posted open items.
At the time of clearing system try to post the entries in the parallel ledgers. But parallel ledger not available in the previous postings.
It will result adverse results in most of the transactions.Please check and take necessary action

Difference between parallel sequence and parallel operation in a routing.

Hi Experts,
Can any one explain me with example the difference between parallel sequence and parallel operation in a routing? wHEN CAN WE USE PARALLEL OPEARTION AND PARALLEL SEQUNCE WITH COMPONENT ALLOCATION.
Regards
Deepak sharma

I think u need to modify ur quest... i think u r asking about Parallel sequence and alternate seq. Below are the details from SAP site.
A parallel sequence enables you to process several operations at the same time.
You use an alternative sequence for example, if
--The production flow is different for certain lot-size ranges
For instance you can machine a work piece on conventional machine or on NC machines. A NC machine has a longer set-up time than a conventional machine. However the machining costs are considerably less. Therefore whether you use NC machines will depend on the lot size.
---The production flow changes under certain business conditions.
For instance, if you have a capacity problem, you have some production steps performed externally by a vendor.

Parallel Currencies and Depreciation areas

Hi all
I have a simple question. When we maintain multiple currencies for a company code, what are the requirements for maintaining depreciation areas? Do we need to maintain a seperate depreciation area per currency? I am unsure of the link between multiple currencies and depreciation areas.
Need ur expert help to help me understand this better.
Thxs in advance.
Hrishi

HI
Any Depreciation Posting should automatically post to all the currencies that are active for a company code. In your case Parallel currency. Depreciation area has no link to the currency.

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

PARALLEL Table and Parallel Server (RAC)

I have the following in parameter for CPU in my oracle 10g server without RAC

Do I need to enable any other Oracle parameters for using parallel options in create table scripts?. This is to increase the DML performance in tables where more than 100+ processes is INSERTING /SELECTING Data.
I have parallel server parameters as shown below ?

parallel_execution_message_size integer 2152
parallel_max_servers integer 480
parallel_min_percent integer 0
parallel_min_servers integer 0

SQL> Using these settings you're going to get a default parallel degree of 4 * 24, which is 96. Since some SQL statements can have two streams of parallel execution (e.g. a group by operation) you might end up with up to 192 parallel slaves for a single SQL statement. Given the "parallel_max_servers" setting of 480 this means you can't execute more than 5 statements in best case, 2 statements in worst case simultaneously using parallel execution without a parallel degradation.
That can be fine but it's something you should consider depending on your requirements. You might want to define a non-default explicit lower parallel degree for some of your "smaller" large tables.
Do I need to enable any other Oracle parameters for using parallel options in create table scripts?. This is to increase the DML performance in tables where more than 100+ processes is INSERTING /SELECTING Data.Not sure what you want to say with this? Do you have more than 100 separate processes that are inserting/selecting data simultaneously? This has nothing to do with the "parallel" execution option which is about parallelizing the execution of a single SQL statement.

parallel_automatic_tuning boolean FALSE
parallel_execution_message_size integer 2152
parallel_max_servers integer 480
parallel_min_percent integer 0

parallel_threads_per_cpu integer 2 What do you mean by this? "Parallel Server" basically means "RAC", but you say you don't use RAC currently. The "parallel_threads_per_cpu" setting of "2" contradicts your above output of "4" shown, so I'm not sure what you intend to say with this.

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.
Adela.

Dear Adela.
1 - Define Currencied for Leading Ledger Like: Group/Index what ever you want.
SPRO >> Financial Accounting (New) >> Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) >>> Ledger >> Define Currencies of Leading Ledger
2 - Maintain Group Currency in Non Leading Ledgers
SPRO >> SPRO >> Financial Accounting (New) >> Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) >>> Ledger Define and Activate Non-Leading Ledgers
3 - Assign Non Leading Ledger to your Dep Area
SPRO >> Asset Accounting >> Asset Accounting (Lean Implementation) >> Organizational Structures >> Depreciation Areas >> Define How Depreciation Areas Post to General Ledger

Activate parallel currency in a company

I need to activate parallel currency in a company which is already in production. Anybody knows how to proceed??
thanks,
Cecilia

Hi,
Last year, I have worked on a similiar requirement. The requirement is to activate the group currency as the second currency in the system for a company which is already in the production environment. We have done quite detailed analysis to do it. Our plan was:
At one point of time before we bring the new configuration for parallel currency into production environment, temporarily make the balance of all accounts (open item, non open item) ZERO, then clear the open items, transport the configuration of parallel currency and bring back the account balances with not only at local currency level but also at group currency level. The company subject to change was a medium sized company and they agreed to only see the balances after the conversion. We shared our plan with SAP to understand if they would give support to usin any case if we face with a problem. Then they told us that that type of conversions can only be done by a special consulting team within SAP AG itself. Any change done and caused a problem in the production environment will not be supported by SAP.
As a result, instead of getting this special consultancy, we have decided to create a new company code with parallel currency activated and make it live at the beginning of the fiscal year and transfer the opening balances to the new company code.
You can contact with SAP to get more information about their conversion for a live company code. But my advise is it is not that much easy to activate this functionality when you are live. So be careful, take your time, share the company detail (which modules are in production, what is the volume of data vs.) with SAP and get their feedback.
Good luck.

Creation of depreciation area for posting of parallel currencies postings

while i am posting f-90 asset e. auqsiation its giving error massage
"Customizing inconsistency (contact your system administrator)
Message no. AC496
Diagnosis
Company code BP01 manages parallel currencies in Asset Accounting. For each area that posts automatically online to FI, you have to define one dependent depreciation area that adopts both identical values and depreciation terms from depreciation area 01, and which is assigned to currency type 60 and currency INR. There is no depreciation area of this type defined for depreciation area 01.
Procedure
Check your Customizing settings."

Hi Venkat,
Create a New Depreciation area with APC Values and Depn values identical to Value 01.
Then goto valuation> currencies
Specify the Use of Parallel Currencies> and assign the currency type and valuation view to the new depn area. tick the identical values
then goto
Define Depreciation Areas for Foreign Currencies> give the parallel currency against the depn area
Now try doing the transaction.
Please revert back if you still have any issues.

Parallel currency in company code require material ledger activation

Hello,
I have a requirement where the company is using parallel currency in NEWGL concept with two different currencies INR and USD.
I want to have a clarification whether I Need to activate Material ledger with parallel currency.
1. Company is using parallel currency with only one legal valuation view.
2. There is no requirement for product costing in the company.
Can the balance in general ledger can be seen in both currency for inventory balances.
Awaiting for your inputs
Thanks

If you don't need parallel currency at present, there's no need to configure it. Why should that be a problem, as long as your Business needs are not relevant to using a parallel currency?
I suspect your actual query is details regarding the future problems that you might face when, faced by changed Business scenarios, you are forced to introduce parallel currency at a future date
If my suspicion is correct, I suggest you look at SAP Note 39919. It's an old note - but one that I've found contains quite relevant tips and tricks about introducing parallel currency in a productive environment.
Remember to assign points if found useful.

Parallel Currency de-activation in OB22

Hello :
We have a few company codes which have been activated for parallel currency in OB22. Documents have been posted to these company codes via a batch input program as these company codes are not yet on SAP
Later we realised that parallel currencies were not needed for these company codes. We want to de-activate parallel currency postings for these company codes. Are there any steps or procedue to be followed to accomplish this task ?
Any insight would be highly appreciated.

Jay

Parallel ledger - activation

Hello,
we have new General Ledger (ECC 5.0) for two years. During this year we decided to use paralel ledger for IAS / IFRS purposes from 1.1.2007 backwards.
We have activated the additional parallel ledger according to SAP documentation. Now we need the balances and open items for all accounts, but we can´t find the way. In customizing are the tools which ask for migration plan. The migration plan is possible to create only for data migration from classic GL into new GL. We tried to find some solution within OSS, but notes describe the problems which appear during data migration from classic to new GL.
I would like to ask you if it is possible to create parallel ledger during the year ? How we can fill new parallel ledger with balances of accounts from previous year and periods for year 2007?
Has anybody with this any experience or do you have any new documentation ?
thanks in advance

Activation of Parallel currency while upgradation of ECC6.0

Hi Experts,
We are useing SAP 4.7E Version along with IS OIL . SAP went Live on 01.04.2006 . Company code currency is INR . *We have not activated Parallel Currencies i.e Hard Currency or Indexed Currency .*
1. Is it possible activation of parallel currency while upgradation to ECC6.0
2. If activated , what are the complications of clearing the Past documents
Best Regards,
Lakshman

Dear,
Use transaction OY01, where going in to your country there is a field Hard Currency. Put currency here which you want it to be the hard currency.
This is customizing object which will not allow you to make changes in production instance as NO CHANGES ALLOWED is set for the client in SCC4. Better do this in development and transport it to production.

Bootcamp and Parallels - Activating windows

Hi Guys,
I know some of you run both Bootcamp and Parallels.
How do you go about activating XP for both bootcamp and parallels at the same time, have any of you seen any problems?
Cheers
Andy

This is not entirely correct. Here's the info from the MacInTouch coverage:
I'm no software licensing expert, but it appears to me, from reviewing the license for Windows Vista Home, Home Premium and Ultimate [license PDF 1] and Windows Vista Business [license PDF 2], that Vista Business and Visa Ultimate (the priciest versions) may be the only versions that can be installed in a virtual machine under, say, Parallels or VMWare's forthcoming solution. Here is the text in the Vista Home and Home Premium licenses which bans the software's use in virtual machines:
"You may not use the software installed on the licensed device within a virtual (or otherwise emulated) hardware system."
A licensed device is a "physical hardware system". Use in Boot Camp would still be OK. Moreover, the licenses for Vista Business and Vista Ultimate allow use in a virtual machine but state that, if you do so, you're not allowed to use any content protected by DRM. It states:
"You may use the software installed on the licensed device within a virtual (or otherwise emulated) hardware system. If you do so, you may not play or access content or use applications protected by any Microsoft digital, information or enterprise rights management technology or other Microsoft rights management services or use BitLocker. We advise against playing or accessing content or using applications protected by other digital, information or enterprise rights management technology or other rights management services or using full volume disk drive encryption."

Parallel currencies in KOB1 and KSB1

KOB1 and KSB1 only display 3 currencies:
Controlling Area currency
Transaction currency
Object currency
In my client, there are 3 parallel currencies in FI:
local currency = CAD for company code A, USD for company code B as examples
group currecny = CAD for company codes A & B
index currecny = USD for company codes A & B
and CO Area=group currency=CAD
Scenario:
Company code A incurs costs in CAD that are backcharged to company B.
The user is able to view the equivalent index currency using FBL3N.
However, for purely CO transaction in CAD, like cost allocation to another cost center or internal order, the user is not able to see the equivalent index currency in USD.
Is there a configuration step to be done to allow users to view FI parallel currencies in purely CO transactions like CO allocations?
pls advise.
thanks!!!

Defined target currency=USD in the CO Acctg User Settings

Running Audition 3.0 on Win7, alternating between BootCamp on Mac and Parallels cause re-activation

Can anyone or Adobe themselves give an explanation as to how Audition 3.0 (and perhaps Audition CS5.5) verifies the machine hardware that it is running on to ensure that the purchased software license is not being installed on multiple machines?
I ask because it would appear that Audition 3.0 (at least) views its installation on the same single Windows 7 image as being 2 separate PCs if the same Windows 7 is booted into parallels and then at others times into BootCamp.
Yes, yes I know I can get Audition CS5.5 natively for the Mac, but for now I wish to run Audition in Windows. So please avoid discussions on this and instead offer me some advice as to why/how Audition reads the hardware it is running on.
The problem:
- I boot into BootCamp Windows, Audition 3.0 runs OK.
- Boot into MacOS, run same BootCamp VM Windows from parallels, run Audition 3.0, it runs asking for registratation. Registration succeeds.
- Boot into BootCamp Windows, Audition 3.0 runs runs asking for registratation. Registration succeeds.
And so on...
If I stick with one mode of running Windows, i.e. BootCamp OR via Parallels, Audition doesn't ask again, however, switching between the two triggers the re-registration.
Using the same VM/Windows install image/drive.
But I guess what is happening here is that the (virtual) "hardware" profile/signature/id presented to Windows/and 3rd-party applications, is different in BootCamp and Parallels and that applications such as Audition use this for authentication/registration to prove that the license is only running on the same hardware.
An ideal solution is that Parallels complies with the same hardware profile that BootCamp presents to Windows and 3rd party applications so that both Parallels and BootCamp are wholly seen as the same machine.
I've raised a support ticket with Parallels themselves.
I've posted on Parallels forum thread: http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=103398
awaiting moderation
But I also think Adobe could be a bit smarter as to how they detect that their software is running on the same machine that it is licensed for.

I think it's very, very unlikely that you'll get an answer to this. Simply because to answer it is an out-and-out invitation to hackers. All I can tell you is that each copy of Audition will allow two installations, but only on different hardware, and that you aren't strictly allowed to use them concurrently. The intention is that you can have one install on a desktop, and another on a laptop. Any conjecture that you might make about this may or may not be true - even if you guess correctly though, I doubt whether you could easily do anything about it. The only thing that Adobe are going to do is to offer to sell you another seat, I guess - that way you could have three installs. But requests for further information are almost certainly going to fall on deaf ears.
