Sudden change in structure of Chart of Accounts

Hello ...
One case has been presented in more than one occasion. It is as follows:
The accounts of Level 5 of the Plan of Accounts overnight changed to level 2 staying active. The origin of this event is unknown, it speaks in other posts that the case has been reported to SAP but without a definite answer about the why it happens and how to fix it.
In fact, the solution is to re-offered to manually update the accounts to Level 5 ... which in cases where the Chart of Accounts has many quite conflicting accounts.
The questions are: there will be some way to get a little more detailed answer to why this occurs? ... And is it the only option to reorganize the entire Chart of Accounts (Chart of Accounts Edit option), the manual mode?
Thank's
Best Regards,

New Chart of Accounts

Hi,
Can any body tell me how to create a new chart of account for my company. Can I copy the existing chart of account from the chart of account list and change it to my chart of accounts, or is there any other method, by which we do it so that everything works properly. URGENT.

INT is a good model chart of accounts and you can struture your chart of accounts based on this. If you adopt this model it is easier for you to map the account determination for various modules.

Is it possible to change the chart of accounts in Oracle Financials?

Dear Colleagues,
Is it possible to change the chart of accounts in Oracle Financials?
Thank you in advance.
Andrey

It is not an easy change. Oracle typically recommends against it but sometimes company structure or processes change so much that you are forced to do it.
Take a look at http://www.vantagesolutions.com/media/SCOUG_May_2004.pdf as well as http://www.erpstuff.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6381.
If you google "change oracle chart of accounts", you will find some more hits as well. This is a big project.
If you other business reasons to do a reimplementation, then changing COA as part of that will be very easy.
For a lot of companies debating between reimplementation and upgrade, a need to change COA becomes the last straw in favor of reimplementation.
Hope this helps,

Change chart of accounts in Controlling area

Hi all,
How can I change the chart of accounts in controlling area?
I've already changed chart of accouns in FA CoCode Global data, and I have to change chart of accounts in controlling area; In OKKP chart of accounts is in display mode

I get the message; where I have to assign Chart of acc to Controling area in OKKP is not possible
Differing charts of accounts: INT - CAXX
Message no. KT299
Diagnosis
The system makes consistency checks during assignment of a company code to a controlling area as part of assignment control.
The same checks take place if assignments already exist and you change the basic data in the controlling area, or if you define the controlling area and company code as a 1:1 structure.
If the check finds an error, the system cannot execute the function ("Assign" or"Change basic data"). If you do not maintain the required data for the consistency check (such as currency, chart of accounts, or fiscal year variant in the company code), this also results in an error message.
Chart of accounts INT, controlling area XX01, does not agree with chart of accounts CAXX, company code XX01.
System Response
Processing is terminated.
Procedure
Ensure that the same chart of accounts is assigned to controlling area and company code.

How to change chart of account to company code

Dear Guruu2019s

How to go further could anybody explain me.
Thank you in advance

If you really want to allocate a different chart of accounts to the company code, first of all reset the company-code specific data for the old chart of accounts.
1. First of all you must, if it exists, reset the transaction data for this company code.
2. Finally, carry out the resetting of the company code-dependent G/L account master data (without the general master data).
Note:
When dealing with large quantities of data, resetting the master data or transaction data can be very time-consuming. In this case, it is advisable to schedule the running of these reports as a batch run.

Alt Chart of Accounts: Change of GL Assignment

Hello Experts,
We have implemented Alternate Chart Of Account (CoA). Balances have been posted. Now during the middle of the Fiscal Year, Government has changed the numbering of few of the local chart of account numbers.
SAP gives error message and does not allow to change the Alt G/L assigned in the master data of the main CoA.
Is there any way out to change the G/L assignments, some SAP program to run or likewise?
We don't want to create new G/L accounts in the corporate CoA in this case and redo the new assignment.
Please let me know if you have come across such a situation.
Regards,
Kshitij J

Hi,
Try this:
remove the COUNTRY COA assigned
replace Alt G/l ...
Again asssign COUNTRY COA
If it helps then pl points as a way to say thanks..

Hi
What Implications that may have applied reset to a company code that has been productive and has therefore are posted from FI, CO, MM, SD, PM, PP and WM. (Reset Transaction: OBR1 for Delete Company Code Data)
It is important to point out that the company began to operate with the modules MM, SD, PM, WM and PP without considering its effects on FI and CO and therefore the data that is in financial accounting and cost is not to relevate for the company. This is to be done with the intention to start with a new Plan of Accounts for this company code.

Change of Chart of Accounts

Hi SAP Experts
I hereby would like to know what the posibility is to change a company Chart of Accounts.
The company was linked to a Chart of Accounts and operated for couple of months (year). As this Chart of Accounts are also assigned to other company codes, the said company wants it own (new) Chart of Accounts.
Is it possible for a company that was operative to change its Chart of Accounts?
Theo

Hi,
We cannot change simply the Chart of Accounts. There is mandatory process to follow.
If you are trying to change system will prompt you error message, reset the transactionl data.
1. Create a seperate Client with the help of Basis People
2. Copy the Transactional Data in separate client.
3. Now reset the data in Original Client
4. Now change the COA.
5. Now copy/migrate the Transactional Data to Old Client.
Note: Before resetting the data, actual Transactional Data should be copied in to another client without loosing your Business Data.
Thanks

OB58 - Change chart of accounts

Hi,
How can I change, in mass way, a chart of account in a copied financial statement?
I have a new company code (J2) and a new chart of accounts (K2) as a copy company code (J1) and chart of accounts (K1).
So, there are the same accounts in two statements but different chart.
Normally, system in a new/copied statement keeps an information about an old chart of account and I have to manually change all items.
regards
Piotr

Hi,
Firstly it should be doen manually only.
But in case of your GL accounts are same in both COA, then change the COA key manully in OB58 in the new /copied FSV's properties.
Thanks,
Srinu

DTW for Chart of Account changes

Experts,
I need to use the DTW for importing changes and new accounts to the standard Chart of Accounts.
When I run the DTW, nothing is imported, even though this is successfull.
Here is teh fields that I have populated:
Header: Code, Name, Cashaccount, ActiveAccount, FaterAccountKey, Account type, AcctCurrency, ForeightName, FormatCode.
Values: 1, COANew1, tNO, tYES, Cash and Equiv, at_Other, $, 12345, 111111110100101.
What do I need to populate in the Code field? Is this different when I update or import a new account?
Thanks,
Marli

Gordon,
Thanks, this worked for the new accounts.
The update of old accounts still give an error "Cannot find this object..." I believe this has to do with the 'Code' field, as there is a note in the cell:
"This field serves as the key of the record in SAP BusinessOne system and it is mandatory. This field is used as a reference in the child template. When adding new data, the value of this field is user defined (e.g., 1,2,3, etc.). When updating existing data, the value of this field should be the real record key in SAP BusinessOne."
What is the real record key in SBO?

Moderator: Please, search SDN

Hi,
Changing the Chart of Accounts code along with all General Ledger Accounts leads to complete re-implimentation of sap.
There will be lot of integration points will need to be changed with all the modules like SD, MM, PP and Controllling. Extensive testing of all business processes is needed.
Definitely it will take lot of time and effor from alll the module and may not be explained in sentences here.
