Posting Currency Revaluation to Special Ledger

All
We have created an additional special ledger using transaction OBS2 to accommodate an additional currency type. When I run currency revaluation with this additional currency type (specifying the currency type in F.05) no special ledger document is being created even though an FI document is created successfully. Additionally when I run valuation for currencies included in the original special ledger, special ledger documents are created. Is there some config that is missing or will the additional special ledger not tie to the revaluation?
Any suggestions are appreciated
Thanks
Savitha

I tried transfering document from FI to SL , on GCU1 screen it says document posted error-free but when I go back in SPL and display all documents for that company code, still that one from FBB1 is not posted.

Statistical postings in special ledger

Hi,
I have a question about PA postings in Special ledger.
When I post a FI doc with PA segment (real posting) and cost center (statistical posting) when I display Special ledger line item I can only see the PA segment but not the cost center. The when I post the same FI doc without the PA segment I can display the cost center correctly ( I think that it is because in this case the cost center is the real posting)
Is it possible to display both CO objects, real and statistical?
Thank you very much

Hi Beatriz!
Could you please post how did you manage to get statistical postings on the Special Ledger?
Thanks in advance.

Foreign currency revaluation posting.

Hi Friends,
I have processed Foreign currency revaluation through F.05 and got a report onscreen showing without errors.
When i am looking in SM35 for batchinput monitoring error log and looking for G/L codes the postings work for G/L codes only but not specific Balancesheet control account.
Can you please give me your valuable answers.
Regards,
Baltha

Hi
I have not understood your question clearly.
The message shows clearly processed without errors.
The log will show doc nos. Please see the document posted - will show the accounts posted.
Revaluation of FC of vendor and customer will get posted only to GL accounts - and not sub-ledgers.
By seeing the Exch Loss/Gain- Unrealised - you will get these doc also- as per the posting dates.
These docs are special docs - where only co code currency will get posted (DMBTR) and no doc currency.
In all other docs both currencies will get populated eventhough it is same.
hope this will help you a little

Transaction currency in Special ledger

Hi,
Can I customize a Special ledger transaction currency in order to be as equal as the transaccion currency of FI document ?
Best regards,
Ivonne

Hi,
This is the situation, I have the following FI document:
Document currency = USD
      line item 1
     Account = Account_1
     Amount in document currency = 100 USD.
     line item 2
     Account = Account_2
     Amount in document currency = - 100 USD.
But, SL Document asociated FI document :
     line item 1
     Account = Account_1
     Value in transaction currency = 100 USD.
     line item 2
     Account = Account_2
     Value in transaction currency = - 430 VEF.
Why transaction currency in SL Document does not equal FI document in all your line items ?
I need the value transaction currency in USD to account_2 like in FI document.
Best Regards,
Ivonne

ICR and transaction currency in Special ledger

Hi,
We are implementing ICR and have a problem related to accounts with flag 'only balance in local currency'. These are updated in special ledger used by ICR tool with amounts only in local currency, meanwhile we have to reconcile in document currency. I found OSS 7626 (Transaction currency in FI-SL), which seems to propose a workaround solution, but entering transaction GCI4 the table is not changable. Is this note still applicable? Has anybody other suggestions?
Thanks a lot.
Kind regards,
Rochy

Hi,
After entering GCI4 , in the command window you have to enter =MAST , then the table is changeable.
Kind regards

Plan data posted to a special ledger

Hello,
I can't transfer plan data to a special ledger although actual data is posted correctly, and the system says that is because of customizing settings
Which are these settings?
Thank you very much

Issue with Posting Date in F.05 - Foreign Currency Revaluation

Hi All,
We have a problem with the US-GAAP Foreign currency revaluation run which we're doing every month.
Although the posting date is entered correctly (for this month as 30.09.2011), the postings that are created have the posting date of 31.07.2011. But the reversal date is right (01.10.2011).
Could you please explain why wrong date is appearing.
Thanks IN Advance
Regards,
Payal Saxena

Hi,
Have you scheduled any batch job to carry out the Foreign Currency Valuation? If yes, then check the variant which has been created for the program. There the posting date might have been entered as 31.07.2011. Dynamic date calculation must be maintained for the posting date.
Thanks,
Aman

ACC_EMPLOYEE_EXP not posting in Special Ledger

Hi,
We have incoming message type ACC_EMPLOYEE_EXP and it creates Accounting and Controlling documents. But when we enter the same transactions manually in FB01 the system is also creating Special Ledger document. Any suggestions how to trigger SL document when using ALE?
Thanks.

Found solution. We had to assign activity HRP1 to the special ledger and we did it in transaction GCL2.

General Ledger Special Ledger out of balance *URGENT* Material Ledger???

We've activated Material Ledger in a company code in Jan'07.
Accounting document created because of 102 Movement type FI document looks fine but in Special Ledger document dollars against Group currency are posted to Price Difference account? This is not happening for all 102movement type documents but i couldn't establish the pattern! Any help would be highly appreciated.
Some background:
Company code and Controlling Area both got USD as main currency.
This problem is sporadic and with 102 movement type only.
Materials causing issue got Price control 'S' and Price determination '2"

Hi Raghu,
Probably I am mistaken; I was talking about SPL field movements and user exits used there. you can check that through transaction GCB2 where ledger is assigned to a company code and then u can drill down to activity and field movement assigned to the activity and can find if a user exit is used to post to a price difference account.
Let me know if I am talking about relevant stuff here. If it is with SPL then I can help u more.
Thanks,
Kumar

Special ledger plan data exctraction

I'm trying to extract special ledger plan data on a line item level.
We have a custom defined Z -starting special ledger tables defined in our system:
T -table (summary table)
A -table (actual data on line item level)
P -table (plan data on line item level)
I can extract the actual line items from our T summary table through the standard SAP defined special ledger extractor.
I have received a response from SAP that the standard extractor can only extract plan data on a summary level.
I have decided to try to create a custom extractor that will extract the items through a query from the P - table.
(you cannot extract directly from the p -table as there are currency/unit references needed from other tables that seems over complicated).
I'm also a little bit puzzled with our special ledger configuration, P - table seems not to have any items, but still plan data exists in the system. (possibly in the GLPCP table?)
Would someone have a clear idea in terms of special ledger plan data extraction?

Hey Dominic,
I'm pretty sure the folks at SAP would have an issue with being quoted here in the forums. If you want to post some kind of a summarization of their response, that's probably OK.

u2022 This transaction is used to clear open item managed general ledger accounts.
A similar transaction exists for customer and vendor account clearing.
u2022 If you have numerous items to clear, and prefer to deselect those that should not be included in the clearing document,
click and deselect Selected items initially inactive checkbox.
The transaction will then start with all items active (i.e. selected for clearing).
u2022 You can clear multiple items in one posting. The only requirement is that the sum of debits and credits equals zero, meaning the clearing document is balanced.
Field Description Tables
The R/O/C column of each Field Description table indicates whether the field usage is:
R - Required in SAP.
O - Optional in SAP.
C - Conditional in SAP.
Procedure
1. Double-click on Clear Open Items to go to the Clear G/L Account: Header Data screen.
2. Complete/review the following fields:
u2022 Account
u2022 Clearing date
3. Perform one of the following:
If Go To
You wish to specify a selection value range by selecting the options in the Additonal selections panel.
For example, you may only wish to review items which have posted in the previous month.
4. Select the radio button for the option for the open item filter you wish to enter, in our example Posting date.
Clear G/L Account: Enter selection criteria
5. As required, complete the following fields:
u2022 Posting date from
u2022 Posting date to
6. Click to go to the Clear G/L Account: Process open items screen.
7. Double click on the amount of the first open item in the GBP Gross column that you wish to clear.
The system will activate the line you have chosen, and the amount in the Assigned field in the Editing status panel will reflect all activated items. If the system shows a balance in the Not assigned field, then your clearing document is not in balance.
8. Select an offsetting item by clicking on the amount in the appropriate line.
Both items will now display as active, and the Not assigned field will show zero, indicating your clearing document is in balance and can be posted.
9. Click to post your document.
The system displays the message, "Document xxxx was posted in company code xxxx".
I have one item there is no value in document currency and there is value in local currency2. due to this item there is a in-consistency balance in F.08 GL balances, how can i correct it.

Foreign Currency Revaluation Configuration

Dear Expert,
How to configure OBA1 Foreign currency revaluation. please expline KDB and KDF,
Which GLs will assign in Exch. Rate Diff. using Exch. Rate Key (KDB) and Exchange Rate Dif.: Open Items/GL Acct KDF. please explain .
Regards
Jhaanu

Dear Jhaanu,
Please fallow below Details and see step by step. it should help full for you..
Purpose
This wiki provides a demonstration of valuation of Open Items In Foreign Currencies
Overview
From the help.sap.com documentation the following is stated
Valuation of Open Items in Foreign Currencies.
Use
All open items in foreign currency are valuated as part of the foreign currency valuation:
The individual open items of an account in foreign currency form the basis of the valuation, that is, every open item of an account in foreign currency is valuated individually.
Example of open items are customers, Vendors, or GL accounts managed on open item basis (SKB1-XOPVW = X)
The total difference from all the open items in an account is posted to a financial statement adjustment account. The account therefore retains its original balance.
The exchange rate profit or loss from the valuation is posted to a separate expense or revenue account for exchange rate differences as an offsetting posting.
A valuation cannot be made by posting to the payables/receivalbes account, since reconcilation accounts cannot be directly posted to.
For this reason the amount is posted to an adjustment account, which appears in the same line of the balance sheet as the reconcilation account
Step 1 - General customizing
Local currency of company EUR -
Implementation Guide: Financial accounting (New) -> Financial accounting global settings (New) -> global Parameters for company code - Transaction code OBY6
Exchange rate 1 USD = 1,7 EUR
Implementation Guide: SAP NetWeaver -> General settings -> Currencies (check all settings) -> Enter Exchange rates (Transaction code OB08)
Step 2 - Create Invoice
SAP Easy Access -> Accounting -> Financial accounting -> Accounts payable -> Document entry -> FB60 Invoice
Post document
Display document posted via FB03
Change in exchange rate occurs 1 USD now equals 1,63 EUR
SAP Easy Access Screen choose -> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Accounts Payable -> Accounting -> FBL1N -Display/Change Line items
Step 3 - Review of Foreign Currency Valuation customizing
Prior to performing a foreign currency valuation review of customizing:
Implementation Guide:Finanical Accounting (New) -> General Ledger Accounting (New) -> Periodic Processing -> Valuate
Define Valuation Methods
Define valuation Areas
Define Accounting Principles
Check Assignment of Accounting princples to ledger Group
*required if you have more than one ledger
Perpare Automatic Postings for Foreign Currency Valuation
Select Transaction KDF, enter Chart of Accounts
The Target Accounts for KDB/KDF can also be defined per valuation area
Account Determination per Valuation Area
Step 4 - Perform Foreign Currency Valuation
To perform a foreign currency valuation, from the SAP Easy Access Screen, choose Accounting -> Financial Accounting ->
General ledger/Accounts Receivable/Accounts Payalbe -> Periodic processing -> Closing -> Valuate -> Foreign Currency Valuation (New)
Transaction FAGL_FC_VAL (Program FAGL_FC_VALUATION)
Execute
Click on Postings button
To create valuation documents create postings must be ticked on, if you execute without create postings ticked, this means that program is run in test mode.
If there are errors when posting, a batch input session is created (transaction SM35)
Update run is saved in table FAGL_BSBW_HISTRY

Krish.

Foreign Currency - Revaluation / Translation

Hi:
I wanted to discuss and understand the best practice for foreign currency revaluation and translation routine.
This is how we do and configured the revaluation / translation routine:
Valuation Area:
SG for revaluation - Currency Type 10 (Local)
S2 for translation - Currency Type 30 (Group)
Valuation Method: EVR (Always Valuate)
In the ledger currencies for 30, "Translation taking transaction currency as a basis".
Plus other coniguration for account determination (both revaluation and translation). - OBA1 and "Define Account detemination for currency translation".
Based on this configuration, we run following transactions at month end:
Revaluation: FAGL_FC_VAL using S2
Translation: FAGL_FC_TRANS using SG
So what it does is, it revalue document currency into local currency and then translate document currency into group currency.
Ideally, what should be as per GAAP is: Revalue document currency into local currency and then translate local currency into group currency.
In our configuration, we are not able to translate out of local books. The configuration translates from document currency to group currency.
Are we missing anything in the configuration or this is standard? What is the best practice or how other companies are running the revaluation/translation routine?
Scenario is:
Document Currency: AUD
Local Currency: GBP
Group Currency: USD
Please advise.
Thanks.
Rahul

As per US GAAP, FASB 52 -
Step (1):-
Re-measurement - Revalue all the balance sheet accounts/open items with 'Document currency' other than 'Local currency' based on spot rate and post this difference to a P&L account (Unrealized Exchange Gain/Loss Account) in 'Local currency'. Do not impact the 'Group currency' here.
Step (2):-
B/S Translation - Revalue all balance sheet accounts from 'Local currency' to 'Group currency' based on the spot rate and post the difference to Cumulative Translation Adjustment account (CTA) in 'Group currency' only. CTA is balance sheet account.
Step (3):-
Unrealized Exchange Gain/Loss Translation - Revaluate the P&L account that's been used in step(1) for exchange differences, from 'Local currency' to 'Group currency' based on spot rate and post the difference to Cumulative Translation Adjustment account (CTA) in 'Group currency' only.
Notes:-
1) Equity and retained earning accounts are never revaluated.
2) CTA account is grouped together with Equity accounts in reporting.

Ganesh

Special ledger updation for plan data

Hello
We have a special ledger set up ( custom table ), the table gets updated with the data online. We have couple of co codes having controlling area 1001 and one that is having only STAT. The plan data for that co code( with STAT) is not getting updated in the special ledger online for new year, I found that t code GCLE is used to activate the items but that seems to be not helping and now I can not understand how it is done for new year. Any clues on this one? I am not a functional guy.
Thanks
Sameer

Yes, this option is active and when I post FI documents for example, the special ledger document appear in the transaction currency.
The proble is that in KP06 when I plan in EUR the special ledger line item has in transaction currency value in USD,that is tyhe company code currency, instead of the transaction currency that I have used (EUR)
Do you understand me?
