Profit Center Derivation : Asset Accounting (New General Ledger) ?

I have configured & activated new GL Accounting in my system (ECC 6.0). All my splitting & derivation is working except for transactions related to assets. Whenever I try to do a posting against asset, I get following generic error.
Balancing field "Profit Center" in line item 001 not filled
Message no. GLT2201
Diagnosis
The field Profit Center marked as balancing is not filled with any value in line item 001, even after document splitting.
System Response
The document cannot be posted.
Procedure
First check your entries.
Additional causes could be:
No value can be derived for this field from the current document data.
You have entered a document type that is not designed for this business purpose.
I have done & checked the following :
1. given cost center in asset master which derives the business area. the profit center is given in the cost center master
2. checked the field status group for the asset recon. a/c, posting keys 70, 75 where PC is optional.
3. Confirmed that doc type AA and asset recon ac are characterised for splitting.
I am clueless why is the asset not taking the profit center during transactions.
any welcome would be deeply appreciated. ?
pls answer ??
Moderator: Please, search SDN

Hi, you need to activate cost center in AA,and make it optional for account and posting key, then PC'd derive from Cost center
Also check While posting F-90 profitcenter is blank and Grey mode

Bapi for posting FI documents for new General ledger accounting

Hi,
We have a requirement for posting FI documents for new General ledger i.e for transaction FB01L. Is there any BAPI for the same so that BDC can be avoided.
The BAPI "BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST" is used for FB01. Can we use it for FB01L?? As in this BAPI ledger group field is not there. Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hi Sandra,
Solved myself using the below options.
If you are using the BAPI - BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST, you can pass accounting principle field in importing structure BAPIACHE08. The relation between Legder group & accounting principle has to be configured in SPRO by FICO consultant. Once they configured in the system, get the accounting principles and then pass the accounting principle .
Code: s_documentheader-acc_principle = wa_header-acc_principle.
Reward me if this will help you.
Thanks,

De-activate the New General Ledger Accounting

Dear All,
I would like to inform to you all that I had activated the "New General Ledger Accounting through the T.code: FAGL_ACTIVATION in the sand box client".
Now I would like to de-activate the function. Because, it gives some inconveience that the company has upgraded to ECC 6.0, but does not use the New GL concept.
What should I do for this de-activation?
I request you all, please kindly help in this regards.
Thanks with regards,
Ran

Hi,

Active new general ledger accounting

Dear all,
We use SAP several years, after we upgrade to ECC5.0, I would like to active new general ledger accounting. In the SAP training material (AC210), it said that this action should be performed at new year, not mid-year. however, if I active it, what should I considering? or we can not do that?
thanks
Ben Wu

Hi,
The New GL a/c has some unique features such as document splitting so that the asssignments to the Business -area [ for example] will be balanced.If this is activated in the year beginning the assignments will be consistent.The Business _Area Balance sheet will be a balanced one.On the other hand,if you activate in the mid-year [ after the commencement of the posting documents] this consistency will be lost[ as the already posted documents will be deprived of the New-GL a/c advantages;thus rendering the advantage of NEW-GL ineffective.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Ramesh

Profit center derivation : PO

When we post a GR, the Material document has a different Profit Center.
In the IR document, we find a different Profit center.
And in the FI document posted, the Profit center is different...
Can anyone tell me why the system is picking up different profit centers ?
Is there any configuration step for the same or where we assign the same...
Thanks,
Srikanth.

in case of PO MIGO, MIRO, Normally Profit Center will be derived form the Material Master only.
As you said, yes there is default setting for default profit center derivation for the specified GL and path for the same is as follows:-
Financial Accounting >General Ledger accounitng(new)>Masterdata>Profit Center>Assing default profit center to Accounts.
i hope it will be crealr.
Yrs,
Gureddy.

Posting of CarryForward New general ledger

Hi financial wizards,
our client uses new general ledger. The accounting block has been extended with some ZZ user fields carrying results determined via substitution exits during posting.
The additional customer fields are added to the accounting block and are stored on item level (BSEG) as on aggregate level (FAGLFLEXT).
After the run of transaction FAGLGVTR - 'Balance Carryforward (New)' we have the correct values in the carryforward column of the target account, but values from customer fields are not transfered.
SAP will not help us with a note at this time; the features may be integrated in a later release.
Now my question: How to post the carryforward values manually or by program? I know the SAP Carryforward does not create any documents but after the run the Carryforward period (period 0 in former times) is filled with the sums of previous years P+L accounts. Carryforward works correct i.E. for profit center but not for the additional clients fields.
We need some good ideas as how to overcome this obstacle.
Regards,
Clemens

Dear Peter,
I am afraid that you are mistaken. There is lot of difference between the New GL Accounting and COPA. They are entirely different and its utility is also different.
Here in New Gl, Characteristics means, segment characteristics, for example, business area, profit center, functional area, segment.
Trust this answers your query!
Cheers,

Open profit center for reconciliation account

Hi experts
I need to display the field profit center for reconciliation account and I check Field Status Group (OBC4 & OB41). The field Profit center is mandatory.The new legder is not activate
But when I use the FB01 , the profit center is not available
So It s possible to display the field Profit center for reconciliation account without the New Ledger ??
Thanks for your help

Hi
If you are referring to Asset Recon account - You can not enter any Pr Ctr manually in it...
Just ensure
1. Cost Center is maintained in Asset master
2. Maintain KOSTL in T code ACSET for Acq Posting and transaction type *
3. Create APC account as Statistical cost element
Whether New GL or not, PC in Asset recon a/c depends on these settings.... You cant enter it manually in the APC acount

Liquidity Planner and New General Ledger

Dear Bernd,
Document Splitting:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_glossary/en/35/88d1bbd1952050e10000009b38f982/content.htm
An automatic procedure for organizing line items in the document according to selected dimensions (such as organizing receivable lines by profit center). Moreover, you can effect a zero balance setting for selected dimensions (such as profit center or segment). The zero balance setting causes additional clearing lines to be generated on clearing accounts in the document after the document has been created.
For example, the document splitting procedure is necessary for drawing up financial statements for the selected dimensions.
Document Split Account:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_glossary/en/35/26c626afab52b9e10000009b38f974/content.htm
A special account that must be created in financial accounting for posting payroll results to accounting. The partial totals for all documents in a posting run are posted to this account.
Document Splitting Characteristics:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_glossary/en/10/046cfff732584989de50edd6fdc1e3/content.htm
Account assignment object for which document splitting can be performed.
This characteristic generally corresponds to a field in the data structure of the general ledger.
Examples of document splitting characteristics:
Profit center
Segment
Business area
Customer field
Other characteristics (characteristics that are relevant for application components that receive documents from General Ledger Accounting, such as Controlling).
Hope this will help.

Naveen.

GRC and New General Ledger

Hi,
I have one very general question, which is not related to any specific
SAP GRC product.
Do you see any connection between the SAP GRC products (e.g. Access Enforcer, Risk Management etc) and the "New General Ledger"?
Are there any risk and compliance relevant issues in the new general ledger, which can be managed using the SAP GRC products?
Many Thanks
John

Change dummy profit center to original in New GL Concept

Hello experts
We have implemented New GL Concept in ECC6.0. However, some of the documents posted into various GL accounts had gone to Dummy profit center. Is there any way such that already posted documents with dummy profit center can be assigned corresponding original profit center? As of now due to the common dummy profit center has been assigned to various entries, the plant wise reports are not able to display correct figures because dummy profit center is not apportioned to respective plants.
Similar case is also with Vendor and Customer account balances.
We had already gone trough few notes and one of them (1164356) suggests using a BAdI FAGL_MIGR_SUBST, but its scope / use is somewhat ambiguous. (It suggests some ABAP work in VALIDATE_ITEM method, although this method is not present in its interface.)
Kindly help as early as possible...
Thanks and Regards,
Srinivas

Hi
You are not clear on your post
1) whether you have implemented Document Slitting or not?
2) Mapped Zero Balance account or not and
3) Profit Center and Zero Balance account are checked in document soplitting charactreristiocs or not?
I am posting this reply based on the assumption that you have mapped the above configuration.
If You have assigned Dummy Profit center in FAGL_3KEH, this always overrides the profit center derived, and the system posts with a dummy profit center. Remove the FAGL_3KEH assignment if any so that the system posts to the correct profit Centers.
Now If you have made the configuration as discussed in points 1,2 3 and other document splitting configurations, then removing FAGL_3KEH will force system to look for the profit centers in all the line items and posts only when this is satisfied.
A pre requisite will be "Assign Scenarios and Customer Fields to Ledgers" in FA global Settings(New)> Ledgers>Ledger which should be "Profit Center".
As a concept you may not need assignment of FAGL_3KEH once you have implemented document Splitting.
Hope this clarifies your situation.

Difference Between Special Purpose Ledger and New General Ledger

Dear All,
Could any boy explain me the difference between Special Purpose Ledger and New General Ledger?
Regards
JS

Hi
General Ledger Accounting (FI-GL) (New) The central task of G/L accounting is to provide a comprehensive picture of external accounting and accounts. Recording all business transactions (primary postings as well as settlements from internal accounting) in a software system that is fully integrated with all the other operational areas of a company ensures that the accounting data is always complete and accurate. Beyond fulfilling the legal requirements, General Ledger Accounting also fulfills other requirements for modern accounting: - Parallel Accounting General Ledger Accounting allows you to perform parallel accounting by managing several parallel ledgers for different accounting principles. - Integration of Legal and Management Reporting In General Ledger Accounting, you can perform internal management reporting in parallel with legal reporting. For this purpose, the Profit Center Accounting functions are integrated with General Ledger Accounting. Furthermore, you can generate financial statements for any dimension (such as profit center). - Segment Reporting General Ledger Accounting supports the segment reports required by the accounting principles IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) and US GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). For this purpose, General Ledger Accounting contains the Segment dimension. - Cost of Sales Accounting You can perform cost of sales accounting in General Ledger Accounting. For this purpose, General Ledger Accounting contains the Functional Area dimension. Features General Ledger Accounting comprises the following functions for entering and evaluating posting data: - Choice between group level or company level - Automatic and simultaneous posting of all subledger items in the appropriate general ledger accounts (reconciliation accounts) - Simultaneous updating of the parallel general ledgers and of the cost accounting areas - Real-time evaluation of and reporting on current posting data, in the form of account displays, financial statements with different balance sheet versions, and additional analyses. In this way, General Ledger Accounting automatically serves as a complete record of all business transactions. It is the central and up-to-date component for reporting. Individual transactions can be checked at any time in real time by displaying the original documents, line items, and monthly debits and credits at various levels such as: - Account information - Journals - Totals/transaction figures - Balance sheet/profit and loss evaluations However, SAP still offers to choose between the New GL and the old Classic GL way of accounting. There are certain limitations in the new GL and clients are adopting to the new gl concept.

The New General Ledger and another one abouy Extended Treasury

Please a manual of The New General Ledger and another one abouy Extended Treasury,
Thanks in advance
Olga
Moderator: Please, use help.sap.com

With old G/L in R/3, the tables GLT0 (totals), BSEG, BKPF (Line Item) get filled. in BI side u have to use data model
0FI_GL_1 --> 0FI_GL_1 --> 0FIGL_C01 (for Totals)
0FI_GL_4 --> 0FI_GL_4 --> 0FIGL_O02 (for Line item)
With New G/L in R/3, the tables FAGLFLEXT (totals), FAGLFLEXA, BSEG, BKPF (Line Item) get filled. in BI side u have to use data model
0FI_GL_10 --> 0FI_GL_10 --> 0FIGL_C10 (for Totals)
0FI_GL_14 --> 0FIGL_O14 (for Line item)
Functionally, this effects other financial modules like AP, AR, PCA (Profit Center Accounting)
for ex: with new G/L implented in BI side, this fullfils most of profit center Acounting requirements, and u donot have to implement PCA module seperately.
