Possibility to show opening balance of a GL account through SQL query?

Hi experts,
Is it possible to run an SQL query in SBO that shows the opening balance
of a GL account based on a date entered by the user?
This is similar to how the general ledger shows the opening balance of a GL account based on the posting dates entered.
Thanks for your ideas.

Hi Gordon,
Thanks for that idea.
I am thinking of the following:
1. Create a virtual table (#TEST) from a SELECT statement that gets all journal entries for the specified GL account BEFORE the specified posting date.
2. Perform a SELECT statement that sums the debit and credit from (#TEST).
This should show the opening balance of the GL account right?
Regards,
Eric

Problem in getting opening balance for multiple GL Account

Hi,
I am working on a Trail Balance Report in which i am trying to fetch the data for the opening balance for multiple GL Accounts but it is not coming accurate.. Here is the link to the code which i am using currently right now:-
http://docs.google.com/View?id=dfxswwff_13fgpdcbgt
here i am showing the logic for the data of previous year only... i.e. data from begining to 1 day less of the date-low.

Hi,
It is a tranparent table which is getting data from the 2 other tables,the filling of this table is right. The execution of this query is right in the program but the problem comes when it is trying to calculate the opening balance for the respective GL Account present in the query it is not doing it. i.e. if there are 2 gl account ids having 3 rows of data each it is not calculating the of it in a single row.. i hope it is clear now...

Upload Opening balance of G/L accounts from legacy system to SAP, and also

Hi Gurus,
How to upload Opening balance of G/L accounts from legacy system to SAP, and also Vendor and Customer balance.
My Doubt is when you upload the customer balance and vendor balance will it effect the sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account if not the how will the sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account will be posted with the balance. Please send me the general entry passed for posting the same.
What I understood is that when we are uploading the customer and vendor balances through LSMW, no entry will be passed and it will update the customer and vendor sub ledger in FBL1N and FBL5N but it will not affect the sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account.
To give effect to sundry debtor account and sundry creditor account we need to manually pass a journal entry as follows.
1) Sundry debtors account A/c -
DR
      TO clearing account A/c
2)     clearing account A/c -
dr
     Sundry creditor account A/c
Please let me know whether iam correct
Also please tell me what will be the scenario for uploading of the assets balances through LSMW.
THANKS AND REGARDS
MV

Hi,
     When you uploading any data from legacy system to sap normally we will be using LSMW or BDC,thru this we will be uploading master data like G/L,vendor,Customer and asset master these are the some examples and we will upload transaction data also that is P&L Account and Balance sheet.When we do uploading data thru LSMW system will update all the values of vendor,customer and asset values as well as subsidary ledger also.No need to do manully.

If you are using ECC use T. code FAGLGVTR - Balance Carryforward (New)
F.07 - Balance Carryforward for Vendor/customers
then only it shows the correct picture.
when FBL5N is line item report it is no way relavent to balance carry.
this may solve your problem

Well...

Table created

1 row inserted

G/L Account opening Balances.

hi
Experts,
is there any Function Module/BApi for G/L( cash/ bank) opening balance as on date.
Thanks & Regards
Spandana

Hi,
You can upload opening balance to any GL account through a BDC program.For this you need to co ordinate with your ABAP consultant.
Or if your trial balance was having less number of items, you can pass a journal voucher with Tcode F-02.
Hope this will help.
Thanks,

Fault found with opening balances output on Trial Balance report

When running the Trial Balance report and adding "Opening Balances" and taking the "OB from Start of Fiscal Year" option, the relevant opening balances are not shown from the closing balance of the prior period.
All balance sheet accounts should always show a "brought forward" balance if one exists, whereas P&L Accounts should only carry balances forward over monthend boundaries, resetting at the point of a yearend. This is not the output provided by the report.
This issue has been checked on numerous patch levels (including the beta release of 2007a SP01 by a support consultant) and returns the same problem.

Hi Julian,
I checked the functionality by myself and I have two findings:
1) that the Trial balance displays in the opening balance balances for the P&L accounts from previous period.
2) On the other side there is a functionality "Add closing balances" on the Trial balance selection criteria with option "Closing balances before Selected Period Only" which would adjust the presented opening balances for P&L accounts in point 1.
Based on your description I understand that Global Support Center knows about the issue, so I think the point 2 could be used as temporary workaround till the system is corrected.

GL Account Openning Balance

Hi
In GL account there was no closing balance in 2007 but we are able to see Openning balance in 2008 as cumulative balance
How is it possible?
Regards
Prasad

Dear Prasad,
The system will transfer the Balance sheet account balances for the next fiscal year as opening balance.
P&L account balances will be transfered to the retain
earning account.
The value of profit and loss of the previous year is always carried forward to the retained earnings account, for the P&L acoounts have zero opening balance.
For futher information please take account the note 176067 and 402917.
I hope the above information is of help.
