Using Special purpose ledger for CIN

We are in the process of SAP Roll out for India. For our Company codes in Europe, we are following Calendar year as Fiscal year where as, as per Country India requirement, Fiscal year needs to be defined from April - March (V3).
We are planning to use Special purpose ledger with Fiscal year as V3 for Country India reporting. We observe that in several SAP Transaction Fiscal Year is a feild to be entered for executing the transaction. 
SAP solution for Excise Duty, Service tax and Tax deduction at source are based on Fiscal year as per standard ledger or Special Purpose ledger?
Kinldy confirm, if we can use SAP CIN Transaction based on Special Purpose Ledger ?
BR - Dwijendra

Hi  Dwijendra ,
It depands upon what kind of business your implementing.  If it is a manufacturing then we need to have lot
of CIN functionaility from the logistics side. Excise invoice and lot of tax specific.
As such from FI side we need to have the vendor/customer TDS cycle that needs to be run and this is covered by withholding tax functionality for India specific. Which is inherited as part of ECC versions.
If your requirement of implementing is purely for reportiing in march-april then you can try the options with special ledger.

    Hi,
    In the application Special Purpose Ledger, you can define ledgers for reporting purposes. You can keep these user-defined ledgers as general ledgers or subsidiary ledgers with various account assignment objects. Account assignment objects can either be SAP dimensions from various applications (such as account, cost center, business area, profit center) or customer-defined dimensions (such as region).
    The special purpose ledgers enable you to report at various levels using the values from the various application components. The functions available in the special purpose ledgers enable you to collect and combine information, create and modify totals, and distribute actual and plan values. The values are transferred to the special purpose ledgers from other SAP applications and external systems.
    You can find more info here:

  • Special Purpose Ledger to refrence original funding source on Goods Issue

    My client has a requirement to purchase stock materials using mutiple funding sources throughout the year (same material, company, plant, valuation area, etc.)
    We also have a requirement to update the Special Purpose Ledger upon Goods Issue/Stock Transfer with the source funding data.
    One method we tried is to do Batch Management of all materials, create the batch automatically at receipt, User Exit on Goods Issue to find the GI batch from the GR line item (MSEG) and use that funding data in FMDERIVE to populate the Special Purpose Ledger.
    The above process is a bit complex (especially after multiple transfers) and i was hoping someone has a better solution for this.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

    Hi, can you elaborate.
    'My client has a requirement to purchase stock materials using mutiple funding sources throughout the year'- you want to use different FM account assignments?
    'We also have a requirement to update the Special Purpose Ledger upon Goods Issue/Stock Transfer with the source funding data.'- what's the issue? If you put correspond fm account assignments then you can transfer them to SL.

    I have experience in intergrating project accounting to the general ledger in a data warehouse using discoverer to show the results.
    The solution I developed for my compnay is to ensure all entries from all sub-ledgers including manual journal entries are moved to the data warehouse tables have project information based on PA autoaccounting rules.
    The company I work for was interested in viewing reports that cubed cost centers (dept's.) to projects and to translate all entries (not just account balances) to USD for thier foriegn set of books. So, projects can be seen company wide in USD at lowest entry level. The solution I gave them solved the problem and they are able to view reports and evaluate costs by cost centers and projects on an enterprise wide application.
    If this is what you are looking for let me know.
    about my self : I have a B.S. in Computer Science (Theoretical Track) and 17 yrs of accounting and book keeping experience including consolidation and multi-currency sets of books.

  • Plan Values and Special Purpose Ledger, KP97

    Hi, I have copied plan values using KP97 for respected versions. What do I need to do to get same values in Special Purpose Ledger (SPL)?
    Thanks in advance for your time.
    Regards,

    Hi,
    The link between CO-OM-planning and FI-SL-planning on the CO-OM-side is a flag in the plan version customizing (transaction OKEV):
    You can activate the "plan integration" per version and year. Also there are some customizing on FI-SL-side to handle the business transactions and ledgers.
    If the CO-OM-flag is active, the system tries to transfer the plan data to the ledger(s). During this transfer, the fiscal year variants of CO-OM and FI-SL are compared because FI-SL has to know where to put the values.
    Refer note 433367 which is valid for ERP 2004 (& ERP 2005) which provides a modification if different variants are involved but the number of periods are the same.

  • Special purpose ledge and Account Payable-subledger mismatch

    Hi Experts,
    After linking both the SPL-Special purpose ledger data and the AP data record by record,  the Account Number in Group, Local Amount, Local Currency is different in SPL and AP for many records. They wanted to know why there is a difference in Account Number in Group, Local Amount, Local Currency for both the data (AP and SPL) and what is the business purpose behind it.

    Hi,
    Use Tcode GCAC to reconcile your GL and SL.  I hope, you have not summarised data in SL; as such you will not be able to see a line wise comparison.

  • Special purpose ledger vs special gl acc

    hi,
    i read of special purpose ledger. may i know special purpose ledger is actually special gl acc?
    thanks

    Hi,
    Please see this thread on the definition of special GL account : Special GL Tran
    Special purpose ledger (SL) is a solution prior to the avaiability/maturity of the CO module.  It was a module that allows the customization of reporting, such as integrating internal order, cost centres, profit centre etc for a specific reporting needs.  It also includes planning tools and allocation etc.  It is used for statutory reporting or management reporting.
    hope this helps.

  • Document split with special purpose ledger

    I am trying to use activate document splitting in my special purpose ledger,but got error message
    A splitting procedure cannot be assigned, for one of the following reasons:
    There is no line item table defined for table Z#######
    The following fields are missing from the line item table:
    WSL
    RWCUR
    BELNR
    BUZEI
    LINETYPE
    XSPLITMOD
    You can check the exact definitions of these fields (data elements and so on) in table GLFLEXA.
    i am wondering if those fields is mandatory for document split?

    Hi
    Don't you think this a very difficult approach for your requirement.
    Wouldn't a Z Program sufficed your needs better. The reason I am saying this is that the data is already available in the Standard Tables all you need is different mode of selection and presentation to the client.
    Also if you use FBL3N instead of FS10N and use Dynamic selections (Red,Blue,Green ICON) then the document date field can be used for drawing your reports. You could maintain variants for the selection screen, using this field for your client requirements.
    Please let me know whether this helps you.
    Thanks

  • Special Purpose Ledger & Special G/L Indicator

    Salam / Hi,
    Dear SAP Members.
    How are you all today?
    Well i would like to know the difference between Special Purpose Ledger (SPL) and Special G/L Indicator (SGL). I have done some research on my own and i found that SPL is basically maintained in order to meet different reporting requirements whereas SGL is for posting entries for special cases such as down payments etc.
    Other than that i would like to know if there are any more differences between the two. Also currently my company is using ECC 6.0 so should I or is it a good option to maintain/configure Special Purpose Ledger since with the New GL activated we are already maintaining Leading Ledgers and Non Leading Ledgers.
    I hope I am clear enough.
    Regards,
    Mohammed Ali Khan.

    Ali
    SPL and SL are two unrelated things for different purpose though both of them are ultimately for reporting, so I dont think its worth trying to compare them. To your second question, if you already using non leading ledger, no need to setup SPL seperately.

  • Special Purpose Ledger & Special General Ledger

    Hi Experts
    Is there any difference between Special Purpose Ledger & Special General Ledger. If so please give me some real time examples.
    Points will be rewarded.
    Sincerely,
    Ali Abidi

    Dear Ali Abidi:
                        The Special General Ledger is making refence to special accounts like "Down Payment" used to issued operations that could not be posted to the "normal" general ledger accounts. And in the other side, the Special Purpose Ledger is a Ledger different from the usual ledger used in FI. The special purpose ledger is into R/3 but I think that the main difference is that the first is an account and the second is a ledger used for special purposes. I have not got a reference of time but we can think that the Special General Ledger is an special account used at any time and the Special Purpose Ledger is a separate ledger used when it is required. The difference I think is not in "time" but in the "substance".
    I hope being clear for you. If you needed a time reference I could try find it.
    Your Sincerely
