Transitioning from one  chart of accounts to another one

Hi everybody, my client is transitioning from one chart of accounts to another. There is basically a table that translates old account nomenclature to the new one.
Example: old one 00734000 > new one 7340000000
In Bex, when i run a simple query with cost element jerarchy in it, it gives me good result, but at the same time when i go to BW and see the same jerarchy, it shows me the old nodes ??!!
Any idea, why there is this difference?
And a general question, anyone has already done it? How did you do it? Because we have to check every corner of BW to see if everything's ok and it's a nightmare!!

Hi,
It is the nature of BW to store some data like that.
Even the data like dates, sometimes it stores in the format of "782.663" (example). But if you use the same field in query and when you execute, you will get the perfect date like "05/05/2008".
This might be the scenario in your case too.
Regards,
KK.

  • How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another? I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.

    How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another?
    I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.

    ok, what you're learning right now is 101 unix, which is good. Unix is a good thing
    now: the way unix works, and macos (which uses unix underneath) the files and folders work like a hierarchy.
    the start of that tree is /
    so, if you were to do:
    cd /
    (cd means change directory)
    it will bring you at the highest branch of the file system.
    cd /Users
    will bring you to where all the users are.
    to see whats in /Users you can use your friend ls command
    ls means list files/directories
    so:
    cd /Users
    ls -la
    (the -la here means show all (even hidden) and long format (very verbose))  this flag is very optional.
    you will see
    fred
    user2
    for example.
    if you want to see the desktop of user2 you would change directory to it then list the files.
    for example:
    cd /Users/user2/Desktop
    Note that the files and directory are case sensitive, so, desktop is NOT the same as Desktop, or DESKTOP
    ls -la
    you should then be able to see everything in users2 desktop
    you could have done as well the same thing in smaller steps, for example:
    cd /
    cd Users
    cd user2
    cd Desktop
    this is the equivalent of cd /Users/user2/Desktop
    So, for your file, i don't know where it was, but know that if you log in as user2, it will directly put you in
    /Users/user2
    which most likely the file you had created from the other user was in /Users/user1
    if you copied all the files from /Users/original_user to /Users/secondUser
    most likely yes, all your mail, bookmarks etc would be copied over.
    so in your case.
    sudo chown -R seconduser:staff /Users/secondUser
    should work
    Remember that if you start a path with the character /  it means start from the root of the file system, at the highest top you can ever get.
    so
    cd /Users/fred
    is not the same as
    cd Users/fred
    unless you were in / already
    i know it may be confusing at first but it's actually very logical if you play with it.
    to simplify, think of it that / means C:\  on windows
    you can't go any higher than C:\  (in a way)
    if you're unsure which directory you're currently in, you can always type:
    pwd
    it will tell you where you are.
    for example:
    cd /
    pwd
    this shows  /
    cd Users
    pwd
    this now shows /Users
    cd /System/Library
    pwd will show /System/Library
    cd /
    cd /Users
    cd fred
    cd Library
    pwd will show /Users/fred/Library
    unix can look very scary but it's actually vital and very necessary to do tasks sometimes that would take for ever to do via the windows. This is good learning.
    so for the myfile you had created, i can't tell you where it is, at the time you created, if you can do a pwd command you'll know the path,
    ls -la  (this shows all the files where you are)
    if you see myfile in the list
    do a pwd
    whatever is return, the real location of the file would be:
    whatever pwd returned / myfile
    I hope that makes sense.

  • Transfer money from one account to another one

    Hi all
    I am using EBS 11i, and i have the following modules: General Ledger, Account Payables and Cash Management.
    I have different bank accounts in the system and now we want to transfer money from one bank account to another one.
    How should i do this in the system. What type of document should i register to reflect this transfer. I know that it can be done by registering a journal with a clearing account and then reconcile this journal to the cash management module.
    My question is: Is possible to register in the payables module this kind of transactions. Can i solve this by registering payments in this module. On payment the supplier is mandatory, but i do not have any supplier in this case. I have a payment from a specific bank account and then a refund to the other bank account but not involving any specific supplier.
    Please advice if you have any suggestions.
    Thank you all and best regards

    Hi Ernest,
    This is what you can do.
    1) Whenever there are bank transfers, there is Cash-In in one account and Cash-Out from another account.
    2) When you enter the bank statements for these bank accounts, associate the transaction type codes of Misc Receipt and Misc Payment to these statements. Setup the bank transaction codes so that when you perform AutoReconciliation, the system creates Misc Receipts in AR for these statement lines. (You associate a Receivables activity with the transaction code).
    3) When you will run AutoRec, the Misc Receipt is created for the Bank account where funds are received and the Misc Receipt (with negative amount) which is equivalent to a Misc Payment is created for the Bank Account from where funds are transferred. The offset to the bank account is the clearing account in both entries which becomes zero at the end.
    4) With this workaround, there is no need to setup Dummy Supplier or run any payment process in AP.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Anil

  • Can i transfer itunes purchase from one of my accounts to another of my accounts?

    can i transfer itunes purchases from one of my accounts to another of my accounts?

    No, all iTunes purchases will remain tied to the account that downloaded them, they can't be transferred to a different account (nor can accounts be merged).

  • How do I remove a account from the Chart Of Accounts oChartOfAccounts

    Hi,
    I would like to be able to remove a number accounts from the Chart Of Accounts table.
    I see in the help file for the SDK that the Remove() method of the ChartOfAccounts object is Not Supported and I do indeed get an exception when I call it (Object does not support this method or method not implemented).
    Is there another way to remove accounts from the SDK? I am using the SAP Business One DI API Version 8.8 SDK.
    Regards

    Hello,
    based on help, it is really not supported. You can remove via GUI (SAP B1 Client).

  • Moving itunes account from one windows user account to another....

    Hello! I really hope some one here can help!
    I use one of two user accounts on my comp, my boyfriend is the "owner" and I have my own. For separate itunes accounts .... Something is messed up with my profile on this user account and an IT friend told me he thinks that I should just delete my whole profile from the OWNER one and start over, saving anything i need beforehand.
    I was about to do that until I realised that my Itunes account would also be gone.
    Is there any way that I can transfer my itunes account to another user account on my computer without losing everything and having to start over???
    Pllllease & thank you!!!

    Well, if all of the music is in My Music\iTunes, then just copy that folder.
    If it isn't:
    If it's in a shared location, such as the root of the drive, and both account are accessing it, then ignore the music, and transfer just the 'iTunes' folder within My Music.
    If it's in an account specific location (like on your desktop), first consolidate it to your My Music, then transfer that folder.

  • How to transfer balance of one Recon. Account to another Recon.Account

    Hi,
    The scenario is that we want to change Reconciliation Account of all our vendors/customers. So we want to transfer the balance of old Recon Account to new Recon. Account.
    How it would be possible?
    Thanks&Regards,
    Murali

    hi P. M. Dhar
    You cannot post values directly from recon. account to another recon. account. On the other hand you cannot change the recon. account of a customer/vandor when the balance is not zero.
    Therefor you have to go this way:
    1. Create a technical vendor/customer with technical recon. account. (Technical means used only for this purpose).
    2. Post all values from all customers/vendors to this Technical customer/vendor (i. e. all balances will be zero on all customer/vendor)
    3. Change the recon. accounts of all customers/vendors
    4. Post back all values from technical customer/vendor to real customers/vendors
    Of course steps 2, 3 and 4 should be done by programs not manually.
    I hope this helps
