SEM-BCS Equity Holding Adjustment

Hi,
When I try to input Equity Holding Adjustment using AFD, there is an error said :
No consolidation units with accounting technique "equity method".
I am already assign the consolidation unit to Equity Method in the accounting techinque. Why the error still exist?
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Eugene,
I tried to look for notes. Still cannot find anything that have relationship with this error.
Anyway,
What is the purpose of Eq holding adjust?
When we need to input AFD for Equ holding adjust?
Thank you for your info.

SEM-BCS Short Dump while executing Manual Posting Task

Hi SEM-BCS Colleagues,
I am having a peculiar problem with relation to the settings for Manual Postings. I have three scenarios for which I have defined manual document types and tasks 1) Standardizing Entry (Data Collection) 2) Manual Document in IU for adjustment 3) COI Group level manual postings. I am just creating and not changing any settings for document field properties also. I have configured monthly consolidation frequency and period category and I am posting document type 1 in Local Currency and 2 and 3 in Group Currency since they are after currency translation.
Have any of you faced similar problem and help me please?

Hello,
I am also getting short dump during data collection in BCS.
we recently upgraded the system to SP20. Is it anyway related to upgrade.
I also checked the MYSELF as a source system, but not found one.
Could you please let me know how you have solved this issue.
short dump:
Runtime Errors         PERFORM_TOO_MANY_PARAMETERS
Exception              CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_NOT_FOUND
Date and Time          04.12.2009 05:21:11
Short text
     Too many parameters specified with PERFORM.
What happened?
     In a subroutine call, there were more parameters than in the
     routine definition.
     Error in the ABAP Application Program
     The current ABAP program "SAPLRSDRI" had to be terminated because it has
     come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Error analysis
     An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
     The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_NOT_FOUND', was
      not caught in
     procedure "RSDRI_CUBE_WRITE_PACKAGE_RFC" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by
      a RAISING clause.
     Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
     exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
     The reason for the exception is:
     A PERFORM was used to call the routine "CUBE_WRITE_PACKAGE" of the program
      "GPD1S8520HM8UV0U2XBDVPADF03".
     This routine contains 7 formal parameters, but the current call
     contains 10 actual parameters.

ABAP-OO, CT_DATA structure in SEM-BCS.

ABAP-OO, CT_DATA structure in SEM-BCS.
I have been asked to append intermediate sum records to CT_DATA by coding in the method IF_EX_UC_DATATRANSFER~FINALIZE of the implemented class ZCL_IM_BCS_DATASTREAM which has been implemented to class CL_EX_UC_DATATRANSFER.
But I cannot find documentation of how do get hold of the CT_DATA structure that comes visible while debugging my method skeleton.
Could anyone give a hint how this structure is actually created and am I heading for troubles when trying to append records to CT_DATA.

Thank you for your kind answer, but I am sorry to say that the first way through signature gives only Type spec. TYPE STANDARD TABLE and in the class attributes I have not been able to find any structure for CT_DATA.
I suspect that the structure is created dynamically from customizing and I would like replicate that creation in my method. Yours rs

Implementation of SEM-BCS

Hi Experts,
i am trying to implement SEM-BCS. I am still new in it. Are there any documentation about step by step to configure SEM-BCS?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi,
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?query=bw-bcs&cat=sdn_all
Basics of BCS modelling -
Key figures -
You are generally not permitted to change any properties of the key figures used in SEM-BCS. The only exceptions to this are options that affect the display in Business Explorer and the "Characteristic is document property" setting.
If you want to use your own InfoObjects as key figures for totals records in the InfoCube, consider the following conditions:
1. SEM-BCS supports four roles for key figures in the data stream for totals records: Value in group currency, value in local currency, in transaction currency and quantity. You can assign a maximum of four key figures in the data basis accordingly. If you include additional key figures in the InfoCube, these cannot be processed in the consolidation. You are not permitted to assign other roles, such as 'subassignment,' to key figures either.
2. In SEM-BCS, the values are always stored periodically in the database. Furthermore, year-to-date values or non-cumulative values are not managed separately but result from cumulation in each case over the periods of the current fiscal year up to the current period. (This is a purely technical restriction. The consolidation functions greatly support the process with year-to-date values.) Therefore, you must define InfoObjects as cumulative values. Proceed according to the 0CS_TRN_GC, 0CS_TRN_LC, 0CS_TRN_TC, 0QUANTITY InfoObjects that are delivered.
3. You cannot use referencing key figures in SEM-BCS. If you want to define a key figure with a reference, to transfer the technical properties of the referenced InfoObject identically, you can simply create this with a template instead. However, if you want to use the special BW function linked with referencing key figures (see the online documentation in the BW), enter the referencing key figures in the InfoCube, but assign the referenced key figures to the data basis.
Characteristics
With the following characteristics, you are not permitted to make changes to the properties. Once again, the only exceptions here are the options that affect the display in Business Explorer:
0AC_DOCLN, 0AC_DOCNR, 0AC_DOCTEXT, 0AC_IVDOCNR, 0AC_IVPER, 0AC_IVYEAR, 0AC_OIDOCNR, 0AC_OIPER, 0AC_OIYEAR, 0AC_ORDOCNR, 0AC_ORPER, 0AC_ORYEAR, 0AC_RVDOCNR, 0AC_RVPER, 0AC_RVYEAR, 0BCS_AREA, 0BCS_AUTODL, 0BCS_BGPER, 0BCS_BGYEAR, 0BCS_COIACT, 0BCS_COIFUT, 0BCS_COIINA, 0BCS_COINRT, 0BCS_COIPGW, 0BCS_COITOA, 0BCS_CTFLG, 0BCS_DPER, 0BCS_DTEQI, 0BCS_GWLC, 0BCS_GWMAN, 0BCS_GWNEG, 0BCS_GWPROC, 0BCS_LCCMU, 0BCS_LCIC, 0BCS_OBJNR1, 0BCS_OBJNR2, 0BCS_OBJNR3, 0BCS_OBJNR4, 0BCS_OBJNR5, 0BCS_OBJNR6, 0BCS_OBJNR7, 0BCS_OBJNR8, 0BCS_ORGCH, 0BCS_ORGCHL, 0BCS_PRGRP, 0BCS_REFPER, 0BCS_REFYR, 0BCS_SEQNM, 0BCS_TASK, 0BCS_TASKGR, 0BCS_TASKTY, 0BCS_TAXSUP, 0CS_COIAC, 0CS_COINR, 0CS_PLEVEL, 0CURRENCY, 0DATE, 0UNIT, 0USERNAME
Compounding -
When you define the compounding of an InfoObject, some compound relationships are not supported:
You cannot compound subassignments to consolidation units.
You are not permitted to compound the document type and the (0CS_PLEVEL) posting level.
You cannot compound noncurrent assets and assets/liabilities to 0BCS_ALTYPE. In addition, you cannot compound to a characteristic from the totals cube, with the exception of consolidation units, partners, and so on, and their higher-level characteristics.
ODS objects / Virtual InfoProvider -
You can generate the ODS objects for additional financial data and the virtual InfoProvider from the data basis maintenance. However, you can also create these manually and enter them in the data basis. If you do this, create the ODS objects and virtual InfoProvider with the same characteristics and structure they would have had if generated by the data basis maintenance. You can only deviate very slightly from this.
You are not permitted to include the following InfoObjects in any InfoProvider, unless they are generated by the data basis automatically:
0BCS_AREA, 0BCS_REFPER, 0BCS_REFYR, 0BCS_TASK, 0BCS_TASKGR, 0BCSTASKTY
The following InfoObjects must not be contained in the InfoObject catalog, which is defined in the data basis:
0BCS_AREA, 0BCS_REFPER, 0BCS_REFYR, 0BCS_TASK, 0BCS_TASKGR, 0BCSTASKTY, 0FISCYEAR, 0FISCPER3
Time characteristics -
SAP consolidation SEM-BCS ignores changes with the 0FISCPER, 0FISCPER3, 0FISCVARNT and 0FISCYEAR time characteristics. If you make changes, for instance, if you create hierarchies or attributes, these are not taken into account by SEM-BCS. Therefore, there is no maintenance in the workbench, you cannot use the hierarchies or attributes in the functions of SEM-BCS for selections and so on, and you cannot use the attributes or hierarchies for selections in BW queries.
Characteristic values
The following InfoObjects may have the values set by default by SAP only . You are not permitted to change them, not even by using the BW master data maintenance:
0BCS_AREA, 0BCS_AUTODL, 0BCS_COISRT, 0BCS_CTFLG, 0BCS_DIDIEL, 0BCS_GWMEM, 0BCS_GWPROC, 0BCS_IPAAC, 0BCS_IPATTY, 0BCS_OBJNR1, 0BCS_OBJNR2, 0BCS_OBJNR3, 0BCS_OBJNR4, 0BCS_OBJNR5, 0BCS_OBJNR6, 0BCS_OBJNR7, 0BCS_OBJNR8, 0BCS_REPMOD, 0BCS_TASK, 0BCS_TASKGR, 0BCS_TASKTY, 0BCS_TAXSUP, 0BCS_TIMMOD, 0CS_COIAC, 0CS_PLEVEL
For these InfoObjects you can only use the tools of the master data service of the Financial Basis to synchronize master data, so the master data is transferred by the SEM-BCS tables to the BI tables, but not the other way round.
Predefined InfoObjects for individual roles
The system automatically uses most of the InfoObjects mentioned here to activate certain data streams. However, there also are some InfoObjects that you must manually enter in the cube for the totals records. Subsequently, you must assign certain roles to these InfoObjects. These roles are allowed for these InfoObjects only, you cannot assign these roles to other InfoObjects.
These are:
0CS_PLEVEL for the posting level role (required)
0BCS_CTFLG for the conversion role (optional)
0BCS_PRGRP for the product group role (optional)
Activate characteristics and key figures from BW Content
Before you create a data basis of SAP consolidation, you have to activate certain InfoObjects from BW Content.
1. You must always activate the following: 0CS_PLEVEL, 0FISCPER, 0FISCPER3, 0FISCVARNT, 0FISCYEAR.
2. If you use documents, you must also activate: 0AC_DOCLN, 0AC_DOCNR, 0AC_DOCTEXT, 0AC_IVDOCNR, 0AC_IVPER, 0AC_IVYEAR, 0AC_OIDOCNR, 0AC_OIPER, 0AC_OIYEAR, 0AC_ORDOCNR, 0AC_ORPER, 0AC_ORYEAR, 0AC_RVDOCNR, 0AC_RVPER, 0AC_RVYEAR
3. If you use the virtual InfoProvider, activate: 0BCS_REFPER, 0BCS_REFYR, 0BCS_REPMOD, 0BCS_TIMMOD also
4. If you use any data stream in addition to the totals records, also activate: 0BCS_OBJNR1, 0BCS_OBJNR2, 0BCS_OBJNR3, 0BCS_OBJNR4, 0BCS_OBJNR5, 0BCS_OBJNR6, 0BCS_OBJNR7, 0BCS_OBJNR8
5. If you use the data streams of the consolidation of investments, activate: 0ACQ_PER, 0ACQ_YEAR, 00BCS_BGPER, 0BCS_BGYEAR, 0BCS_COIACT, 0BCS_COIFUT, 0BCS_COIINA, 0BCS_COINRT, 0BCS_COIPGW, 0BCS_COISRT, 0BCS_COITOA, 0BCS_DPER, 0BCS_DTEQI, 0BCS_GWLC, 0BCS_GWMAN, 0BCS_GWMEM, 0BCS_GWNEG, 0BCS_GWOFFS, 0BCS_GWPROC, 0BCS_GWRED, 0BCS_LCCMU, 0BCS_LCIC, 0BCS_SEQNUM, 0CS_COIAC, 0CS_COINR
6. If you use organization changes, activate: 0BCS_ORGCH, 0BCS_ORGCHL
7. If you use data streams for stock and delivery data, activate 0BCS_PRGRP.
8. If you use data streams for assets/liabilities or noncurrent assets, activate: 0BCS_ALTYPE, 0BCS_DPER, 0BCS_DYEAR, 0BCS_IPADAU, 0BCS_IPALCM, 0BCS_IPATTY, 0BCS_RETBG
The list of the InfoObjects varies depending on the release. Of course, you do not have to activate InfoObjects that do not exist in your release.
You do not have to activate InfoObjects that are not explicitly specified. However, if you do not activate them, some functions may not be available to you. For example, if you do not activate the 0BCS_CTFLG InfoObject and do not use it for totals records in the InfoCube, the currency translation cannot display any currency translation differences on the initializing data records.
Attributes When you define the InfoObjects in BW, attributes can be assigned to InfoObjects. This results in the following restrictions:
In SEM-BCS 3.1B, 3.2 and 3.5, no InfoObjects that appear in the permanent parameters of a consolidation area or are fixed in a consolidation area may be attributes of an InfoObject used in SEM-BCS.
InfoObjects that are used as a consolidation unit must not have 0FISCVARNT as an attribute.

Re: BCS - Modelling requirements
Posted: Feb 24, 2007 10:56 PM in response to: moini kembly Reply E-mail this post
Hi,
On this phase you should determine and describe the following:
- sources of data to be consolidated (R/3, flat files, 3rd parties)
- methods of receiving/uploading these data into BW
- the appropriate BW objects (characteristics, key figures, cubes etc.)
- time characteristics to be used (is it enough to have only fiscal chars? do you need the calendar ones too?)
- is data upload to be directly into totals cube? if not - consider the intermediate cube. What kind of data transformation is to be done during upload of data from interim cube to the totals?
- methods of getting data into totals cube (flexible upload, reading from datastream, manual entries)
- will you need additional financial data? if yes, which ones and how will you load this data?
- what types of data you need to consolidate (actual, plan, forecast etc.)
- how many chars will be given the VERSION role?
- plan the number of consolidation areas. The best way is to have the only one. it will minimize the customization.
- how many consolidation units hierarchies do you have (for example, if you need consolidated reports according to management and IFRS structure of the group, then you have 2 hierarchies)?
- determine the structure of the group hierarchies.
- what is the group's currency? is it one currency or several ones?
- determine the currency translation methods for each data type.
- make sure that all consolidation units have the same chart of accounts. if not, consider the mapping or transformation of the numbering of accounts.
- consider the currency translation types for different groups of accounts in the balanse sheet (for example, fixed assets and equity - historical rate, retairned earnings - everage rate, non-monetary items - current rate etc.).
- consider the kind of translation - periodic/cumulative for different data types and reports.
- determine the set of consolidated reports as an output.
- which custom characteristics you need to bring to the totals cube in order to get the reports needed?
- which standard chars you'll have to customize and how exactly (bringing new attributes, customizing the std or creating the custom chars)
- if you'll replace a standard char with a custom one, consider that some another chars may depend on the char to be replaced. it's especially true for a company code. if you use a custom char for a company, then you have to use the reference chars for partner company, investee company, allocation company etc.
- will your consolidation units be one-dimension structure (by company) or it is a matrix one? if the latter, what is the second cons unit?
- will the BCS functionality cover all your consolidation needs? if not, consider the workarounds. reclassification is to be considered as a tool # 1.
It's just an incomplete introduction to the issues to be determined during a blue-print phase.

SEM BCS - Error in Consolidation Area

Dear Experts,
When i save my consolidation area, there is an error message.
it is "Syntax error in GP_ERR_UCDTYPE, row 8.880".
The Diagnosis said "Component called REFYEAR already exists".
I can not found "REFYEAR" in my system.
I am using info cube 0BCS_C11.
Please help....
Thanks in advance.

Hello
Though I am not an expert in this area I have found the following information with a similar problem in another customer that maybe useful:
"On the basis of your problem description it seems that you assigned in
the data basis maintenance the `SEM-BCS info-object catalogue` for
characteristics and key figures to the two info-object catalogues (on
the first tab strip of data basis maintenance). This makes the trouble.
Please read the F1 help carefully and if you need an extra info-object
catalogue, then please create one. Please note that the SEM-BCS standard
info-object catalogues are NOT appropriate for this purpose.
F1 help:
"InfoObject Catalog for Characteristics
InfoObject catalog of the SAP Business Information Warehouse to include
additional characteristics.
Use
You use this field as follows:
In a data basis, the InfoObject catalog contains the quantity of
additional fields that can be selected on the Additional Financial Data
tab page for investments and equity.
In a source data basis, the InfoObject catalog portrays the definition
of an external field catalog, which can be used in a method of the
category Flexible Upload, if a data basis was allocated to the source
data basis."
In order to remove the info-object catalogs you can use the transaction
UCWB01.
Hope it helps .

SEM BCS - Partnership Consolidation

Hi friends:
Please let me know the following:
a) What is a Partnership consolidation and which version covers it?
b) What are new features in SEM 6.0 and where do I get documentation?
I thank you in advance for the above information.
Sincerely,
Virgo

Virgo,
IMHO, it should mean the multilevel ownership between the companies involved.
In this context I treat the partnership as a different share belonged to this or that party.
Like: Company A has 80% of Company B which in turn has 90% of Company D etc.
There is no special functionality needed. SEM-BCS covers purchase and equity methods.
That is all is needed here, I guess.
Hope this helps.

SEM-BCS: Problems in Flexible Upload

Good morning to you all!
In SEM-BCS, for the equity and investments data we use to processes: the users can do it the Manual Entry or upload from a TXT file using the Flexible Upload Method.
In the Flexible Upload Setting I had already try the three options available: Deleted Changed Ones; Overwrite, Do Not Modify (Delete All is not a option because it will erase the manual entries data) and they will accumulate the data entries in the file (same file, executed twice).
Can anyone help me?
Best regards;
Ricardo

Multiple Fiscal Year Variant in the same client in SEM-BCS...

I have already looked at some earlier threads relating to this but didn't get a convincing answer to what I would like to know.
We have had a working SEM-BCS system with fiscal year variant K4. There was no need for defining leading fiscal year variant and none was defined. SAP, by default takes, K4 as the leading fiscal year variant.
Now there is a requirement for going on a different fiscal year variant for which we have created another databasis (there were a few other reasons besides these) with the same InfoObjects that we used earlier but with different fixed parameters, one of which is fisc year variant V9. Soon, we started experiencing bizarre dumps in the configuration which ultimately convinced me to define a leading fiscal year variant. I was reluctant to do so because there is a lot of old data (which will become 'historical' from new data basis point of view) from the working system on K4 that would still need to be reported on even when we have new BCS solution in the new fiscal year variant V9. That is not going away. There is a need to keep the old data for reporting (hence the rationale for a different data basis among a few others).
Since earlier Master Data was configured in the old fisc year variant K4, now I have defined the leading fiscal year variant as V9 so that MDF can appropriately identify the period dependency.
I would like to know if any of you have had an unexpected behavior from the system going forward. Does the system dump out when you try to read the old data (from earlier K4).
I have tried to explain the dilemma as clearly and succinctly as possible but if you need more clarifications, please do let me know.
I would really appreciate your help in this.

Is your requirement is that K4 to be changed to Z5.
The best way you can do it is in the transformation. Instead of directmapping,
Write a code like this in the trransformation to the cube
If SOURCE FIELD - 0FISCVAR eq 'k4'.
SOURCE FIELD - 0FISCVAR = 'Z5'.
I dont think we can change th data in the query being displayed. we can change the keyfigure values in query by frmulas etc...
but for a characteristic, i think we will be able to restrict bt not change the value.
to obtain the requirement, w have to get the data change before query designer that is in the cube leve.
Hope this helps,
Sri...

Unable to provide input value to InfoObject in SEM-BCS

Hello BI Experts,
I have created an infoobject 'ABC' in BI and have flagged 'With Master Data' and 'With Text'. This infoobject has an navigational attribute 'XYZ'(XYZ also has 'With Master Data' and 'With Text').
When I go to T.Code UCWB(BCS Workbench), I could able to see the infoobject 'ABC' and when I try to create master data for 'ABC', I do not see the input field for 'XYZ'. I want to input values in Infoobject 'XYZ' through this screen(SEM-BCS) and not through BI(right-click on infoobject 'Maintain Master Data). Please let me know, if I am missing anything.

Hi Shekar
I find the ICD setup very 'picky'! If you get one thing wrong, it doesn't work. I have detailed below the steps I usually advise people to tek. Check your setup and see if this helps.
1. Define Plan Type, Compensation Category = Others.
2. Define Plan. Link to Plan Type. Plan Usage = May not be in program. On Not in program Tab - define sequence, currency, enrollment rate (per pay period?), activity reference period (Monthly). Your settings may need to be different. On Plan details tab, enter plan years.
3. Plan enrollment requirements. On the general tab, plan sub tab, make sure the method = EXPLICIT. this allows the user to enter an input value for the ICD. THIS MAY WELL BE THE SOURCE OF YOUR PROBLEM!
Make sure the CERTIFICATION region is UNTICKED. This can also cause ICDs not to work.
ALLOWS UNRESTRICTED ENROLLMENT must be TICKED. Otherwise there is no eligibility to the ICD.
On the rates subregion, make sure the run strt date is set to ENTERABLE.
4. standard Rates form. Make sure the ACTIVITY TYPE and TAX TYPE are entered. Select the ELEMENT and the INPUT VALUE and TICK the ELEMENT AND INPUT VALUE REQUIRED field.
On the processing Information tab - TICK ASSIGN ON ENROLMENT, DISPLAY ON ENROLLMENT and PROCESS EACH PAY PERIOD. Enter PER PAY PERIOD AMOUNT in VALUE PASSED TO PAYROLL and OTHER in COMPENSATION CATEGORY.
Let me know if this works!

SEM-BCS (BW Reporting)

Hi All,
I would like to know how SEM-BCS stores data (balance values) in BW cube. If I have to generate a B/S report, how would I restrict the Key Figure to show balance as of the 2nd quarter? The issue is the ranging of the Posting Period. Is it (4 to 6) or 6(Last month of quarter) or (1 to 6)?
Thank.

it depends what you want. you want to show cumulative balance or non-cumulative balance from ytd.
since it is balance sheet, i would assume u r refereing to the cumulative balance from ytd ( which also includes the balance carry forward.)
in that you can restrict it to period 1 through 6.
other case:
you report only shows the monthly balances or transactions in the month. then you can go for period restriction period 6.
hope this helps.

BWer

Concept of Integrated Consolidation Unit of SEM BCS

HI Experts,
I'm now in the SEM BCS 4.0 and BW 3.5 implementation. Previously I was the ECCS specialist and before the FI and AM specialist.
Now I'm in SEM BCS implementation.
I have one question in connection to the integrated consolidation unit. As the reference, I take the concept of this using the ECCS.
As you might know, the creation of integrated consolidation unit for using realtime update method in ECCS, is pulled from FI company ID.
Meanings if I set the configuration properly, I can pull out the company master data as the consolidation unit master data in consolidation monitor.
Now, in SEM BCS, I want to do the same thing. I mean, off course I can create company ID in R/3 and then create the consolidation unit manually using UCWB. But this scenario can create inconsistency, and I also think this is not the right concept of doing integration between R/3 and SEM BCS.
My question is : what is the concept of this master data integration, and what is the proper way to do it?
Any advise on this question is highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
regards,
Halim

Hi Halim,
You need to build properly your data basis in data model.
Assign your company to a consolidation unit role:

SEM BCS - Consolidation Chart of Accounts

Hi all,
For the SEM-BCS implementation I am using ECC as the operational system. ECC folks are in the process of building a group chart of account in FI.
Can you suggests the work around to map group chart of account to consolidation chart of account in SEM-BCS?
Thanks in advance
RJ

I am not sure if anybody has replied you.
In SEM 4.0, You need to download the chart from R3 and then upload as hierrachy in the UCWB workbench.
In SEM.6.0, You have master data load direct from R3 and you can do the same.
Functional advice:-
Normally R3 creates operational chart of account in R3. Each account has a group account feild, if populated the mapping of operational chart to group is amintained in R3 itself.
You can upload the GL master with group chart account number and then this will obviously have the mapping for your use in BCS.
Consolidation chart of account in R3 (if its the accepted group chart) will be the same group chart which your ECC guys are preparing.
Are they using ECCS in R3??

How SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?

Hi,
I would like to find out how SEM BCS handled balance carried forward?
Income statement
Profit after Tax - 50
Balance Sheet
Retained profit (last year) - 100
Current Year profit - 50
How do i configurate 'Profit after Tax' = 'Current Year profit' in workbench? Is BCS going to store the computed results?
Balance items (ie 'Retained profit (last year)' and 'Current Year profit') by default are carry forward to next year in BCS.
Do i need to configurate 'Current Year profit' add to 'Retained profit (last year)'?
Pls advise.
Thanks.
Regards, Renee

Hi Renee,
By default, the balance sheet items are to be carried forward to next year. If you dont make any settings, both items, Retained profit (last year) and Current Year profit will be transferred to themselves, that is not correct.
You need to show the system which items are to be carried forward not to themselves.
To force the system to make the proper transfer, in UCWB go to Consolidation Functions -> Balance Carryforward -> Items to be Carried Forward.
Enter there the following information:
Orig. Item__________Debit Item_______Credit Item
Current Year profit____RE (last year)_____RE (last year)
Do the similar operation for all items to be carried to other than themselves items, for example dividends of the current and last years etc.
Hope this helps.

BW Based SEM BCS

Hello...
I have a problem as explained below , will appricate if anybody can share there experience to help me out of it. THX IN ADVANCE....
Problem :
We are using standard extractor 0SEM_BCS_10 for extracting R/3 data for SEM-BCS. We observed that Company ID of Trading partner was not being extracted even for those line items in FI which has Trading partner value.
We investigated and observed this extractor fetches data from new GL Stagging ledger and further noticed that the stagging ledger captures this information about trading partner only if Scenario "Preparation for Consolidation" is assigned to the stagging ledger. But the problem is extractor is capturing the above information only prospectively and we have the requirment to capture Trading partner information even for our historic data.
Is there any way we can achive this.
