  • Amount diff between Leading leder & non leading ledger (Parallel ledger)

    Hi SAP Guru's
    Write now we are working on ECC 6.0 with new gl. We have configure parallel ledger accounting & document splitting also.
    But when I am seeing balances in 0L & 1L (GL Bal), system showing differences.When i am found out this difference it comes in Zero balance account(for document splitting).
    my question is why the system showing diff balances in 0l & 1l?
    So, may I know what is reason behind this?
    Can any plz help me out for above issues......
    regards
    Amar

    No sir,
    I have taken same fiscal yr variant.

  • Comparison parallel ledger app. with parallel account app. in terms of IFRS

    Hİ ALL,
    we would like to know what is the advantages of using parallel ledger approach for transition to IFRS in SAP instead of using parallel account approach?
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Currently I am making a similar review - account based versus parallel ledger. The pro's of the of parallel ledger are the con's of account based and vice versa:
    Parallel ledger - Pros
    - G/L accounts: fewer G/L accounts required (so opportunity to reduce SCOA), same G/L accounts are shared across all ledgers - unified reporting
    - Fiscal year variant: company codes with different fiscal year variants assigned to a separate ledger, facilitating consolidated reporting
    - Posting period variant: postings to ledgers can be separately controlled by assigning a separate posting period variant for the ledger
    - Carry forward: no need to maintain separate retained earnings accounts per accounting principle
    - Currency valuations and translations: Automated postings updated to appropriate ledgers based on the assignment to relevant accounting principles
    - Adjustment and value postings: Adjustment and value postings, such as reclassification are automatically posted to the appropriate ledgers
    - Standard reports: standard reports are executed by ledger
    Parallel ledger - Cons
    - The data volume could increase as a result ofmaintaining parallel ledgers (see SAP note 820495 for tips on resolving the issue)
    - Parallel ledger is a new concept at my customer so it requires a complete revamp of system configuation, with all the impact on processes and people, all old local reports (using special ledger) will become obsolete.
    Hope this helps. By the way: we have chosen to move from account-based to parallel ledger despite the implementation effort.

  • Post Accounting Entries only in Parallel Ledger

    Hi All,
    I am activating Parallel Ledger (Parallel Currency: USD) in a SAP system which has already gone "LIVE".
    In our data conversion exericise, migration GL accounts will be created where all USD translation differences that arise will remain in these migration GL accounts.
    Thus I would like to ask if there is any transaction T-Code where I can clear the USD translation difference amount sitting in the migration GL accounts,i.e. to post only in the Parallel Ledger without creating postings in the General Ledger (Leading Ledger).
    Thank you for your time!!

    Hi Sunil!
    Thank you for the prompt feeback!
    F-05 is very useful. But I can't seem to find a T-Code with FB50L.
    Are we looking at FB50? If it is FB50, where can I determine in the document entry the Ledger Im posting to. By the way Im using SAP 4.7.

  • How to correct an acquisition posting in an parallel ledger

    Hello,
    I have the following situation:
    We are using New GL concept and have setup one parallel ledger (16)
    We have setup two depreciation areas, one pointing to the 0L, the other one to parallel ledger
    During vendor posting  of an asset the capitalisation is done in both ledgers posting to the capex balance sheet account (standard behavior).  For reasons the customer wants to  redraw the capitalisation but only in the parallel ledger, he wants to post it as costs ( P&L account)instead of the balance sheet account.
    Whats the best approach here?
    Many thanks

    Hi You Need to define following settings:
    Assign Depreciation Area to your Parallel Ledger i.e. Non Leading Ledger
    SPRO>IMGFinancial Accounting (New)> Asset Accounting> Valuation>Depreciation Areas>Define Depreciation Areas
    The GL Column will be 3 and Target Grp will be 16 in your case
    Now Create a new Transaction Type which will be copy of your 101 and restrict this Transaction type for your Depreciation Area whihc is specific to your non leading ledger.
    Now post ABSO and ASKBN
    Please let me know if you face any issues.

  • Co object assignment to a non-leading ledger account while posting

    Hi,
    while I m trying to post a document for non-leading ledger account which is opened as a cost element. for leading ledger it has to be filled by cost objects but in non-leading ledger is it a must ? In my opinion in non-leading ledger postings doesnt need to have cost objects because in CO it contains only leading ledger. am I wrong ?

  • Document No. in parallel Ledger

    Hi,
    We use parallel ledger in TRM and create two valuation area 001 and 002 for IGAAP and IFRS. We Initialization of Parallel ledger.
    We post both valuation area for accounting but system pickup diff. number range as per valuation area. My document type same use TR for accounting.
    How to use same number range and same number generate in both valuation area?
    Regards,
    Vishal Patel

    Hi,
    what is the intention for having 1:1 document numbers in different Valuation Areas? Imagine, it is very likely, that you have different number of flows (e.g. having only FX-valuation in VA 001 but FX & Title-valuation in VA 002) which - as a consequence - results in a deviation of document-# in FI.
    As you have a drilldown-possibility into FI in TPM13 & TPM20, in my eyes there is no real need (...and in praxis no real chance) to keep posting documents 1:1 across VAs.

  • 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
    dana schlachtova

    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

  • Parallel ledger with values for past period

    hi
    we are creating addl ledgers with different fiscal year variant
    is it possible for me to fill up this ledger with values for a past period?
    my fiscal year variant is V3 April - March, however I need the parallel ledger for calender year Fiscal Yr Variant K4.
    Going live with this in april is it possible to populate this ledger with values for jan-march period
    regards
    sameer

    HI,
    I am not sure if it is helpful but what you can do is to define an asset movement type limited to a valuation area, which allows you to post for example acquisitions only in on valuation area, but not in the other one.
    Thus you can post ABSO with one asset movement type for one valuation area (APC-value X) for another valuation area use another movement type and post APC value Y.
    Anyway the difference of the APC value (thats not ativated) needs to be posted to an P&L account.
    Maybe there are other/better suggestions from other people.

    2. Where do we maintain the posting period variant for leading and non leading ledgers
    3. How to select the ledger at document entry. I do not see any field in FB50/FB60/FB70 or F-02.
    4. And finally how to view the GL balances for leading and non leading ledger. When I run the report S_PL0_86000030 I get the messgae no report is selected for both ledgers.
    But when I post the entry is being converted to group currrency mentioned for leading ledger.
    Your help will be much appreciated

    Ans:-F.AF.A.Global settingsledgers-ledger--define ledger for gl accounting
    2. Where do we maintain the posting period variant for leading and non leading ledgers
    Ans:-F.AF.A.Global settingsledgers---Fiscal year and posting periods
    3. How to select the ledger at document entry. I do not see any field in FB50/FB60/FB70 or F-02.
    Ans:-If you define ledgers, it'll be displayed in transactions.
    4. And finally how to view the GL balances for leading and non leading ledger. When I run the report S_PL0_86000030 I get the messgae no report is selected for both ledgers.
    Ans:- First define ledgers, consequently you'll get the data for the required ledger.

  • Document on New General Ledger Accounting

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    Can anyone help by providing the following details relating to General Ledger Accounting (New):
    1. What are the advantages of New GL accounting
    2. Any Bearing on Controlling Module.  If so, what they are (like no need of Cost Element Reconciliation)
    Tnaks in advance
    B Surya

    The following are the advantages of New GL Accounting;
    1. On-line document splitting. Real time integration of CO=>FI
    2. New GL replaces the SPL (Special Purpose Ledger) to some extent and not 100%
    3. CO Reconciliation is not required due to on-line splitting
    4. Parallel Accounting
    5. Segment Reporting.
    Best Regards,
    Chandra

  • Double Posting in Parallel Ledger

    Hello Gurus
    We have Non-US company codes and have various depreciation areas assigned to it. Area 01 is main assigned to leading ledger 0L and area 30 is USGAAP assigned to L1 ( parallel Ledger). Area 01 Post real time and Area 30 is "Area post APC Directly and Depreciation.
    Everything was working fine. Area 01 and L1 were getting correct postings. Recently due to client requirement for treatment of their Composite assets, we make certain adjustments in area 30 and area 01 differently. Like area 01 does not get any posting and area 30 get some adjustment posting and we do through Z transaction types. To achieve this we had to run periodic posting and thus assigned ZA document type to company codes of Mexico.
    With this what is now happening is
    When we post 10000 MXN to asset, Area 01 gets 10000 but area 30 which is L1 gets 20000.
    To resolve this issue we tried various options like, If we
    Assign Area post depreciation only to area 30 then it works fine but then our treatment of composite does not work
    If we assign area post APC and depreciation on periodic basis, then it again doubles but doubles when we run ASKBN.
    Please advise. It is real serious issue here.
    Thanks

    Hi Jean,
    now I am astonished. Ok, I do not know your Support tickets, and I don´t know which bad OSS notes you mean. But your statement that you always get double postings is not correct if you follow the guideline how to set up your scenario with 2 different ledger (groups).
    The documentation can be found in the SAP Help Portal here: Parallel Accounting in Asset Accounting  .
    There you find the link to the chapter "Parallel Ledgers in Asset Accounting", which contains detailed information and configuration steps to fulfill this requirement.
    If you want to post 2 areas to G/L to different ledger groups, then the official SAP proposal is to use the so called "Ledger Scenario". In that scenario your alternative valuation does only post depreciation to G/L, so that you do not get double postings. If you have valuation differences, which appear automatically through different APC amounts or different value adjustments at retirement, then a derived depreciation area will post these differences ledger specific to your alternative valuation.
    I admit that this scenario is not the most convenient, but it will provide the full functionality of parallel valuation at ledger (group) level.
    The only real big limitation existing is that you can not really use different fiscal year variants within the valuation areas. But the basic requirement under which this thread was opened should work without problems.

    Markus

  • Parallel Ledger Setup

    Here is my understanding of how Parallel Ledgers are setup within ECC 6.0.  Please let me know if there is anything wrong with my initial understanding:
    Define accounting principles and assign them to ledger groups.  Assignment of accounting principle to ledger group is a 1:1 relationship
    Ledger groups when initially created contains the ledger of the same name.  Multiple ledgers can be assigned to a ledger group.  What are the restrictions on how many or what types of ledgers can be assigned to a ledger group?
    Company Codes are assigned to each ledger.  What are the restrictions on how many or what types of company codes can be assigned to a ledger?
    I would appreciate any advice on how to conceptually understand parallel ledger configuration.

    HI,
    simply have concept of Leading Ledger and Non-Leading ledger.
    Leadgers are client wise ,  Not company code wise.
    0L default Leading ledger.
    Non leading ledger  can deactivate company code wise.
    Ledger Group:  Means set of ledgers is called  ledger group.
                           (In group leading ledger is must and it is called Rep.Leadger) .

  • CO Postings to Parallel Ledger

    We are on ECC 6.0 and when we make an entry in SAP to Z2 and Z3 ledger(Z2 and Z3 are parallel ledger and 0L is leading ledger) without any CO object, the system does not issue ant message: KI 235 is issued ("Account & requires a cost accounting-relevant account assignment") or KI 351?
    Could you please advice and help further on this?
