Posting to G/L account in Next period & Opening balances

We need to post to G/L accounts for new Company code
1) During month of February , Can we post to GL accounts(FB50) with Posting date in January? --> if we have Period 1,2008 open in OB52 ( FROM Period 1,2008 TO Period 2,2008)
2) Is there a way that Opening balances can be posted to the G/L account other than using FB50/F-02. There are only 10 G/L accounts ,so I don't want to do it programmatically.
Please reply at the earliest.
Thanks

HI Manisha
I will answer your question one by one.
The answer for the first question is, YEs you can have any many periods open as you wish. This you can do in T.Code OB52. In OB52 , You have to give from which period to which period it should be open.
Now coming to the second question. i don't think there is any other way to upload the balanace.
If it helps, plz assign points.

Posting of p&l accounts in prior periods at go live with wbs

Hi gurus,
As client requirement is to see profit and loss reporting from january in case of may 2014 golive, is there any issue if we post monthly entries of p&l accounts with relevant cost center/wbs with jan to april posting dates and run project settlement every month from period 1 to 4 so that project cost can be settled on cost center. And as far as balance of balance sheet accounts are concerned, balances will be uploaded on golive date in may.
Please let me if there is any issue with above mentioned solution which will give p&l details for this year in sap....
Thank you

Hi Collet,
We have configured it this way because our users told us that they needed to adjust the current period profit / Loss account after all the interunit eliminations were made, so when having to reclassify it between minority interest - Retained earnings amount and the group retained earnings, only the net balance in that account should be considered and not the one calculated in FI.
Example: FI Balances:
1.000,00 u20AC       4300 - Accounts receivable
100,00 u20AC          5720 - Banks
-1.000,00 u20AC       7000 - Income
-100,00 u20AC         7000 - Income intragroup
-1.100,00 u20AC       1290 - Retained earnings current year
1.100,00 u20AC        8000 - current year income
IC:
100,00 u20AC      7000 - Income intragroup
-100,00 u20AC     1298 - P&L clearing account
100,00 u20AC      1290 - Retained earnings current year
-100,00 u20AC     8000 - current year income
Balance After IC:
1.000,00 u20AC        4300 - Accounts receivable
100,00 u20AC            5720 - Banks
-1.000,00 u20AC       7000 - Income
-100,00 u20AC          1299 - Clearing account for P&L
-1.000,00 u20AC       1290 - Retained earnings current year
1.000,00 u20AC        8000 - current year income
So, while reclassifying the net retained earning for current year (minority interes 20% share):
1.000,00 u20AC     1290 - Retained earnings current year
-800,00 u20AC       1291 u2013 Retained earnings current year consolidation group
-200,00 u20AC       1230 - Retained earnings current year minority interest
I know what you are saying but Why is this wrong?

How to get opening balance of a g/l account using query ?

Dear all,
I'm developing consolidated g/l accounts debit,credit totals month wise with opening & closing balances thru query based report,
i'have got expected results except opening balance g/l account,
How to get opening balance of a g/l account based on date as conditonal parameter ?
Any one throw light on this ?
Jeyakanthan

Hi ,
Please kindly help me on this.I don't know how to calculate opening bal and closing bal over a period of time by Quarter, and how to generate the reprot using crystal reports and please suggest me on this how to go ahead with this report.
Here you can go through the reprot requirement , and also an attachment of my Report template.
we have "Category of Investment" , "Income On Investment" ,"Gross yield" and "Net yield" are report fields.
1)"Category Of Investment " is Hardcoded.
2)In this we have to get "Investment" column from VTBFHAPO(BZBETR Field) table Database based on
Flow type(SFHAZBA) in VTBFHAPO table ='0100' for bonds category.
3)"Income on Investment" also we will get from DB using the following formula.
Income On Investment= "Interest IncomeAmortizationCapitalgain"
4)With the Date field(Making Date dimension based on date(DCRDAT) field in VTBFAHPO table.
By Current Quarter,Year to Date,Last year)
5)Opening bal---Investment
Purchase--Flowtype=0100
Meturity/Sales--Flowtype=0200
Closing balance=Opening bal+(Investment or Purchase)-(Meturity or Sales)
'0100' '0200'
Here '0100' and '0200' are Flow types based on this i need to get value from the same Field.
we need to Calculate "Gross yield" .
The bellow are formulas to evaluate "Gross yield "
Ist Qtr .Gross yield=Investment income/(((April opening balanceApril closing balance)/2)((May opening balanceMay Closing Balance)/2)((June opening balance+June closing balance)/2))/3)
Ist qtr. Year to date Gross yield=Investment income/(((April opening balanceApril closing balance)/2)((May opening balanceMay Closing Balance)/2)((June opening balance+June closing balance)/2))/3)
Investment income=interest incomeamortisationcapital gain
Iind Qtr.Gross yield=Investment income/(((July opening balanceJuly closing balance)/2)((Aug opening balanceAug Closing Balance)/2)((Sept. opening balance+Sept. closing balance)/2))/3)
Iind Qtr. Year todateGross yield=Investment income/(((April opening balanceApril closing balance)/2)((May opening balanceMay Closing Balance)/2)((June opening balanceJune closing balance)/2))((July opening balanceJuly closing balance)/2)((Aug opening balanceAug Closing Balance)/2)((Sept. opening balance+Sept. closing balance)/2))/6
This data should display over a period of time. based on "Current Quarter","YearToDate" and "Last year"
The quarter starts from April,i,e FY, I Like this i need to generate the report.
Thanks in advance.

Update Next Shift opeing balance with current shift closing balance

hi,
I have an aggregation table which have shiftwise, productwise, warehouse wise stock data. i want update the next shift opening balance with current shift closing balance.
My table is
ID          ShiftDate         ShiftNumber   ProductID   OpeningBalance Inward Outward ClosingBalance WarehouseID
1             2014-07-02         1                  1
0                   50           20
30                1
2             2014-07-02          2                 1
50                   0              0
50               1
Actually my aggregation is already run and update the table like above. But after that user done a transaction and accounted in the first shift. So i need to reupdate the data after the accountshift. I update the outward and closing balance so the closing
balance of first shift is correct.
Now i want update opening balance of second shift needs to be updated based on the corresponding closing balance of the shift 1.
Please guide me for this. I can pass ShiftData and ShiftNumber as '2014-07-02' and 1 respectively.

Which is sql server version you'e using? If its sql 2012, you can use PARTITION BY with RANGE BETWEEN for this.
Otherwise you need to use a correlated subquery logic using APPLY

Opening Balance of Banks in G/L Accounts

When I want to Show the opening balance in Bank ( G/L ) Accounts I am following the sequence mentioned Below. But It is not clear for me . Can U guide me.
Administration -> System Initialization -> Opening Balances -> G/LAccounts Opening Balances In G/L Accounts Opening Balance Screen when we select Specific Bank G/L Account Number the same is Disappearing from the list of G/L ACCOUNTS. Due to this I am unable to enter Opening Balance for the required Bank. What is the reason.
May be my procedure is wrong, please guide me.

Santosh,
As I suggested in one of my earlier messages, You may use Journal Entry to bring in Opening Balances.
Debit Bank Account G/L
Credit Opening Balance Account. (this is the account you would be creating to balance all the opening balance import)

Clear G/L accounts before entering opening balance

Hi,
We have not gone live with SAP B1 yet. I am importing closed A/P and A/R invoices for past history. What is the correct way to zero out G/L accounts before entering the opening balances when we go live. We have multiple G/L accounts.
Thank you for your help.

Using the DiApi you can import both closed AR invoices and pay them at the same time. Run your trial balance before starting the process (every account should have zero balance. Perform the import and pay the invoices. Run trial balance again and perform journal entries to get GL back to zero (just do reverse of what trial balance reports).
Of course perform your tests in the test database but the above works we do it on almost all of our implementations.

If current period is closed, use next period for posting...

Hello Experts,
I am currently developing a report that posts via F-02. Now, my functional said
that if before posting, I need to check if the current period is open.If yes, then
proceed posting. If not, then get the next period and use it for posting.
For example, period 12 is closed, then I need to use period 13. Can you guys help
me in the logic?
Thanks and take care!

Hi,
Check with your FI consultant as which table to use to determine the posting period is closed or not. It is customizing table.

GL Account Ending Balance not transferred to next period

hi,
we are working in oracle applications 11i.
in oracle general ledger from the standard report: account analysis ,the user is found that the ending balance for account 123 for ADJ period 2010 is 333.
the same account has no beginning balance for Jan 2011. The account is the material account of an inventory organization.
updates: in another account analysis report: Period JAN-11 is not in the LOV of ending period !!!!
any clues please....
Edited by: AHS on Feb 6, 2011 3:56 AM

Regarding balances, there are two types of accounts:
Accounts whose balance is kept from one year to the other (Asset, Liability, etc.)
Accounts whose balance is cleared at the end of the year and the new year begins with a zero balance (Profit and loss, Expense accounts).
You may need to check which kind of accounts you are using.

Post a goods issue on a close period

Dear Gurus,
We need to correct some material documents due to fiscal inconsistences, but these documents were posted on a closed period (May). Currently, the periods open are June and July.
Is there a way we can do that?
Regards.
Fabio Scaravelli

One way is possible, but it has also negative aspects:
You can set back the current period to a required period. There is a init repor in the customizing of MM. I would set the current one back to june, so you could post im may.
After done this, the normal period report for setting the next month can be run.
But: doing this, current values and the last period are at least the same. You loose one historical period....
I would try this in a test system.

Posting Period - Opening

Hi CB,
Thanks for the information.
In our company,we maintain Fiscal year from November to October.
Nov = first month.
*Can you let me know what should i do now to open the period 2009/09*
Thanks

Hi,
Go to MMRV and check the current period. Next go to MMPV close current period by period.
MMRV-display current and previous posting periods
MMPV- open new mm period
Here period means month in general terminology
You can open only one period at a time.
If Financial year is from January to December then, period 01 = January and period 12=December in MM periods.
If Financial year is from April to March then, period 01 = April (this year) and period 12= March (next year) in MM periods.
In your case financial year november to october then Period 01=November(this year) and period 12 = October(next year)
Now goto MMPV and close current period. system automatically Opens the next period the posting period accordingly.

Carry forward data for next period

Hi,
Lets say A is transfering asset to B with profit... so there will be
a unrealized profit that has to be eliminated in the group reporting.. Lets say I manage to eliminate this in bcs,
so, the bcs retained earning will be reduce due to this unrealized profit right?
when the balance carry forward next period, bcs b/f retained profit is the profit after we eliminate the unrealized profit.
When we do load from the data stream again, the b/f retained earning in R/3 will still include the unrealized profit right?
how do we want to make the unrealised profit to be eliminated permanently?
Edited by: shahrul yusof on Feb 25, 2008 4:50 AM

Well, Shahrul,
The Balance carryforward is rather well provided here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_sem60ep1/helpdata/en/53/01ad3c99c90455e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Remember that all data load (without manual entries) happens in the posting level PL = 00. Eliminations are done on PL = 20 or 30.
And during the bcf the data becoming a new initial balance goes to period 000.
What's bothering you?

Depreciation posted against expense GL account are incorrect

We have a situation as depreciation incorrectly posted against accounts 500000 and 500020(these are two Deprn GL accounts). This is due to,

please advise how to resolve the YTD GL balance for tax
depreciation expense so it is correct and reconciles to the
