Updating Special Ledger Live from FI

Hello,
I have a question regarding Special Ledger.
There's a T-code for updating Special Ledger from FI (GCU1).
But now it's needed to update SL automatically when FI document is being posted so we don't have to run GCU1.
What functionality can be used for that?
Thanks.

There will not be any content data sources for special ledger, because the structures in SL are very specific to an organization.
You need to generate your own data source for SL.
Once you generate the data source in R/3, rest of the steps are the same as is for any other transaction data source.

Delivery/billing update special ledger

I crate a sales order, in outbound delivery, the accounting document and special ledger document is generated, but distribution chanel in the special ledger document is empty( can view from GD13), activity is RMWL
but in billing phase, the accounting document, PA document, special ledger document is generated. and the distribution channel is
listed in the special ledger document, I think it is from sales order,
in GCF2, the sender is ACHID, field is VTWEG, our receiver field is RZZVTWEG.
but ACHID is structure, I can't see the details. so why distribution channel is not updated in the special ledger document during delivery phase? thanks

Hi,
Unfortunately, a delivery document has mainly shippment information and not sales info. During post delivery, account interface from SD(LE) -> AC can not have the information of sales document.
But many of customer want sales characteristics, such as distribution channel, sales org etc, in COGS within special ledger,. Then, I always use customer exit (field movement exit) to read sales order through delivery document and substitute VTWEG with a value from sales order header (VBAK) or sales order items (VBAP).
- In structure ACCIT_GLX, you can use VBEL2 / POSN2 as sales order number/items.
You can set up field movement exit with the following steps.
1. T_cd:SE38
Create field movement exit report program: ZGIVSxxx copied from standard prog. RGIVS000.
And you edit "FORM e01_mvc" for field: RZZVTWEG. You may need ABAPPER's help for this.
2. T_cd: GCX2
You set user exit program: ZGIVSxxx within application area GIMV, which you create in 1.
3. T_cd: GCF2
Put user exit number (like U01) within field RZZVTWEG.
Hope this will help
best regards, Takashi

Special Ledger: Open Line items are not being loaded in BW

Hi all.
We are loading Special Ledger information from R/3 to BW, and for many accounts, the data is not reconciling between the two systems.
We have found out that none of the Open Line Items are being transferred.
Do you know which could be the cause for this?
Thanks and Regards

Hi Daniel,
Could you give some more details about the extractors and the "Open Line Items"?

ALE/IDoc interface for Special Ledger Data

Anybody has experience with extracting Special Ledger data from ECC through ALE/IDoc interface?
Because Special Ledger is cutom to any client, I'm thinking we need to create a custom IDoc type. I didn't notice any standard IDoc type. Any documentation or any tips on this will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Go live of a new special ledger

Hi,
I need to implement a special ledger, and the company FI is already in production. The problem is that I need to start to work with the special ledger on the date 01.01.20XX, and if I pass the orders on 01.01.20XX the company is still going to enter information (adjustments) in 12.20xx -1 and I don't want to have information of the prior year in the special ledger.
I want to know if is possible to set the special ledger to be actived in a specific date.
In addition, which is the process of the go live recommended by sap to start to use a new special ledger when the company is already in production.
Thanks,
Cecilia

Problem in extracting data from Z totals table (special Ledger)

Hi Gurus,
I am in a task of pulling in specific fields from the Z Totals Table of Special Purpose Ledger into the cube. We only need totals records and do not need line items.
In SBIW, i have generated the transfer structure and datasource for totals table as per the steps of Generic extraction.
The problem is that am not able to see all the fields (like balance carried forward, total transactions) in the selection fields screen. While extracting i choose totals records only. But now my datasource got generated and am able to see that it is active (green). But some important fields like balance are missing.
Please let me know your suggestions / ideas.
Thanks
Shreya

We have the exact same Challenge and Issue. When I view my generated extract structure 3FI_SL_ZB_TT, I don't see any of my key figures. This was created off the Special Ledger Summary or totals table.
For Instance, I need fields KSLVT through KSL16. That is, Balance Carried forward in Group currency (period 0) and, total of transactions of the period in group currency, (periods 1-16). I don't see these at all in the generated extract structure. Does that mean it must be appended in via transaction RSA6?
Also, to get the Balance Carried forward do I have to add 0BALANCE to the extract structure?
Finally, besides the beginning balance, which wiil remain constant, can I get Month-end Year To Date Balances using this approach. Note, I don't need detail from the line items table. I just want to make sure I don't need to use that in concert with a Delta and ODS to get my Month End YTD Balance. I only need this cube for Balances.
Thanx,
Joe M

Special ledger updation for plan data

Hello
We have a special ledger set up ( custom table ), the table gets updated with the data online. We have couple of co codes having controlling area 1001 and one that is having only STAT. The plan data for that co code( with STAT) is not getting updated in the special ledger online for new year, I found that t code GCLE is used to activate the items but that seems to be not helping and now I can not understand how it is done for new year. Any clues on this one? I am not a functional guy.
Thanks
Sameer

Yes, this option is active and when I post FI documents for example, the special ledger document appear in the transaction currency.
The proble is that in KP06 when I plan in EUR the special ledger line item has in transaction currency value in USD,that is tyhe company code currency, instead of the transaction currency that I have used (EUR)
Do you understand me?

How do I get a special ledger doc to create from a PCA distribution?

We are looking at using PCA distributions. Execution of these cycles must create a special ledger document. It's my understanding this is done by assigning the appropriate activity/bus transaction to the special ledger. The activity is PCAD. When I try to assign this activity to our special ledger via GCL2, PCAD is not included in the list of possibilities for assignment (non-assigned activities that can be assigned). We currently use cost center distributions and those transfer to special ledger via assignment of activity RKIV to our special ledger. Not sure what the trick is to PCA distributions. Any clues?
Thanks for your response.

Hi Judy,
The activy PCAD is related to Component EC-PCA and is possible for Ledger 8A.
In Order to to bring the Distribution cycles related data meaning the EC PCA Records with Activity PCAD, you need to setup Roll up ledger with appropriate settings. Create a roll up ledger and execute after distribution cycles execution during MEC.
Hope this clarifies the point.

Special ledger Rollup

Hi,
I have customized a rollup in a special ledger and I am using the same Z table for the original ledger (ZA) and for the rollup ledger(ZB). So I have for example 1000 line items in ledger ZA and 60 in ledger ZB in the same Z table.
Then in reports I have selected only ledger ZB, so I think that the waiting time when executing reports will be less than selecting ledger ZA but I have few line items and I am not sure.
Is it correct or is it necessary to post rollup data in another table to have less waiting time?
Because entering data in the same table I have more line items than before....
Thank you very much!!

Beatriz,
We are on ECC6 and have defined a number of SPL's that we update at month end using a roll up. So it is possible to do, we are updating it from the GLPCT table as PCA is active in our solution. I am not sure what your data source would be i.e. are you intending to use the FAGLFLEXT table?
Long term new GL is probably the way to go for additional ledgers but it does depend on what you are tryign to achieve using SPL.

Special Ledger Roll up: too many records created in receiver table

Hello,
When I execute roll up from 1 special ledger to another special ledger (leaving out a number of fields) 4 records (postings) are selected but in the receiver table there are 92 records created (4*23) so 88 records too many. For each selected record in the sender table 7 records contain only 0 amounts and have an incorrect RPMAX value (starting with 16 till 336). The 8th record has an amount and has the correct RPMAX value: 352). In Sender and Receiver Ledger fiscal year variant Daily Balance is assigned (= each day is a period). Any hint how to prevent the empty records?

Installing the patch, re- importing the SAP Provisioning framework (I selected 'update') and recreating the jobs didn't yield any result.
When examining pass 'ReadABAPRoles' of Job 'AS ABAP - Initial Load' -> tab 'source', there are no scripts used .
After applying the patch we decided anyway to verify the scripts (sap_getRoles, sap_getUserRepositories) in our Identity Center after those of 'Note 1398312 - SAP NW IdM Provisioning Framework for SAP Systems' , and they are different
File size of SAP Provisioning Framework_Folder.mcc of SP3 Patch 0 and Patch 1 are also exactly the same.
Opening file SAP Provisioning Framework_Folder.mcc with Wordpad : searched for 'sap_getRoles' :
<GLOBALSCRIPT>
<SCRIPTREVISIONNUMBER/>
<SCRIPTLASTCHANGE>2009-05-07 08:00:23.54</SCRIPTLASTCHANGE>
<SCRIPTLANGUAGE>JScript</SCRIPTLANGUAGE>
<SCRIPTID>30</SCRIPTID>
<SCRIPTDEFINITION> ... string was too long to copy
paste ... </SCRIPTDEFINITION>
<SCRIPTLOCKDATE/>
<SCRIPTHASH>0940f540423630687449f52159cdb5d9</SCRIPTHASH>
<SCRIPTDESCRIPTION/>
<SCRIPTNAME>sap_getRoles</SCRIPTNAME>
<SCRIPTLOCKSTATE>0</SCRIPTLOCKSTATE>
-> Script last change 2009-05-07 08:00:23.54 -> that's no update !
So I assume the updates mentioned in Note 1398312 aren't included in SP3 Patch 1. Manually replaced the current scripts with those of the note and re- tested : no luck. Same issue.
Thanks again for the help,
Kevin

Controlling Special Ledger rollup

The situation is:
There is a record in the reciever table for a special ledger rollup that have filled the value fields for one money (for example: local currency) and I want to import the values for another money (for example: transaction currency) in THE SAME record without destroying the existing values.
One soultion could be to copy the values from the reciever table to the intermediate table (glu2), but I can not determine how could locate the reciever record. I have tried with the name of the table (the name in dictionary data) but it didn't work.
Thanks a lot,

New GL or Special Ledger

We are in the midst of upgrading our environment to ECC 6.0 but we are taking on a Financial Re-design effort - I am looking to leverage the NEW GL to remove some of our dependency on a CO-PA reporting design and I am hearing from some colleagues that they would like to use - the Special Ledger to support the new Financial reporting requirements u2013 but I feel the NEW GL is the way to go with the design since it is more integrated with standard reporting u2013 What are your thoughts about continuing to use the Special Ledger functionality over the New GL functionality in ECC 6.0 ?
Moderator: Please, search SDN

Hi,
Definitely, switching over to New GL rather than continuing in conventional SPL. New GL has lots of advantage and flexibility. Please go thru the documentation AC210 - New General Ledger Accounting for more details or refer below mentioned link.

FI-SL Special Ledger Extractor (Delta not working) Issues

Hi,
We are creating extractor for Special Purpose Ledger using standard SAP methodology.
Step1: Goto Transaction BW01 --> select the Summary table ---> Check for total records and line Items and then execute. This results in extrators created for totals and Line Items.
Issue 1: The Summary table eg. ZLTST has special ledgers Z1, Z2 and ZA where Z1 and Z2 are for spot balances and ZA is for Average Balances, the issue is we dont see any extractor for ZA (we do see extractors created for Z1 and Z2 both totals and line Items)
Step 2: Goto transaction BW03 ---> select the totals extractor and double click
Issue 2: When you double click the check box to Activate Delta Update for Z1 and Z2 (totals) is disabled???
If anyone has configured Special Ledger Extractors in past for release 4.7 and higher please let me know the process to set up delta
