What are the impacts of new gl migration on other sap modules.

Hi
In need to move to IFRS reporting, my client is planing to migrate from classic gl to new gl (not yet decided which scenario, but most probably we will go with scenario 5).
We are in stage where we are assessing new gl functionality, impact of new gl migration on other SAP module and what precautions we should carry while drafting project activities for migration plan.
I am specially interested to know how are other modules impacted by New GL? Ex. SD, MM, HR, Treasury, CRM ?
Thanks,
Surendra

Hi Karthik,
I have already gone thru OSS notes 1014364, 1039752, 1070629 and many more...
My specific question is, what are the impacts of New GL migration on other SAP module (HR, SD, MM, CRM, and Treasury). I am well aware of impact/changes within FICO.
Thanks,
Surendra
Can anyone tell with their experience if any of the above listed modules have any specific impact/change when we migrate to New GL from Classic GL?

Purpose of Group chart of Accounts

Hi,
Can anybody kindly let me know what is the purpose of having a group chart of accounts for all company codes having a common operating chart of accounts. How is this used in consolidation.

HI,
Group chart of accounts is used In this scenario we assume that
for the data transfer in your group, you only use the realtime update and/or the rollup
the operational accounts do not agree 1:1 with the FS items of Consolidation, therefore you require the group accounts for the transfer of operational accounts into FS items
Please assign points if it useful

What is the purpose of Clearing and Revenue account in Asset Disposal : F-92?

Hi All,
Please clarify my doubt ;
In Asset Disposal - Sale to Customer : F-92 with customer
Suppose an asset with historical cost $1000 and accumulated depreciation of $100 is being sold to a customer at $1100, the posting entries will be as follows :
Dr     Customer Account (A/R)                    1,100
Dr     Accumulated Depreciation                    100
Cr     Fixed Asset - Acquisition Cost           1,000-
Cr     Gain/Loss of Fixed Asset Disposal       200-
Dr     Clearing Account for Asset Disposal   1,100
Cr     Revenue for Asset Disposal                1,100-
I completely understand the first four line items, but don't know the purpose or the 5th and 6th line items.
Please explain why we need a clearing and revenue account for asset disposal and what would be the impact of these accounts in asset accounting?
Thanks in advance !!!
Regards,
Vicki

Hi Vicki
This is just a technical account, which gets Dr and Cr in the same document
The purpose is just to tell you how much asset sale has happened during the year.. You can get this info by looking at the GL Account
Since Asset Module is a sub ledger, the asset needs to be retired. At the same time, the FI-GL also should show the needed info from accounting perspective
While the required GL entry is completed with the 1st 4 line items, the 5th and 6th are just the statistical ones

What is the purpose of GL account in the account assignment tab of PO scree

hi,
in the purchase order screen, in the account assignment tab, there is a field labelled as GL account. May i know what is the purpose of this gl account because as far as i am concerned we need to specify the vendor gl account (in the vendor master) and the stock account and GR/IR account in BSX and WRX transactions in OBYC respectively.
In that case what is the purpose of specifyin a GL account in the purchase order account assignment tab?

Hi,
The fact is quite simple - When you are buying the material, you can be able to define if this is for inventorization or for consumption. If it is for inventory replenishment, then the stock account will be debited during GR posting. Otherwise, P&L account will be debited. The G/L account you have seen in your PO is always needed in case of direct consumption. At the time of GR posting, the posting lines will be -
1)   For stock item:
Dr     Stock Account (BSX Transaction/Event Key);
Cr     GR/IR Clearing Account (WRX Transaction/Event Key)
2)   In case of non-stock item:
Dr     P&L Account (GBB/xxx Transaction/Event Key where xxx is defined in the 'Account Modifier field of the related account assignment category setting in OME9 transaction - which is seen in the PO);
Cr    GR/IR Clearing Account (WRX Transaction/Event Key).

What's the purpose for the two Wireless Antennas on a WAP?

I have a very simple question, that I'm a little confused about. Here it goes.
Most Access Points have two antennas. One is labeled as LEFT/PRIMARY and the other is RIGHT.
What is the purpose for the two antennas? When I have one antenna connected it works without any issues. Can I just use the LEFT/PRIMARY antenna for wireless connectivity? What are the purpose for the two?
And we are talking about a single band, 802.11b/g NOT 802.11a.
Thank you!

Hi Rashida,
The use of two Antennas on these AP's is used for "Diversity Mode. In many cases, 1 single Antenna will work nicely. Here is an explanation for the use of two Antennas :)
This describes the use of 2 **Identical Antennas in "Diversity" Mode;
The purpose of diversity is to overcome multipath reflections. Diversity antennas that share the same physical housing are placed at an optimum distance apart. The maker of the particular antenna determines that distance based on the characteristics of the antenna. When you use a pair of antennas with matching characteristics to provide diversity for cell coverage in your facility, the guideline is to put those matched antennas at a distance apart from each other that is equal to a multiple of the wavelength of the frequency that is being transmitted. The 2.4 GHz wavelength is approximately 4.92 inches. Therefore, to support diversity on a 2.4 GHz radio with two separate antennas, the antennas should be spaced approximately 5 inches apart. The antenna pair could also be spaced at multiples of 5 inches, but the distance between should not exceed 4 multiples: reflected waves farther apart than that are likely to be so distorted and different in delay spread that the radio could not work with them.Because each antenna is selected by itself, both antennas must have the same radiation characteristics and be positioned to provide similar cell coverage.
**** Two antennas connected to the same access point must not be used to cover two different cells.****
From this good doc;
Multipath and Diversity
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a008019f646.shtml
A diversity antenna system can be compared to a switch that selects one antenna or another, never both at the same time. The radio in receive mode will continually switch between antennas listening for a valid radio packet. After the beginning sync of a valid packet is heard, the radio will evaluate the sync signal of the packet on one antenna, then switch to the other antenna and evaluate. Then the radio will select the best antenna and use only that antenna for the remaining portion of that packet.
On transmit, the radio will select the same antenna it used the last time it communicated to that given radio. If a packet fails, it will switch to the other antenna and retry the packet.
One caution with diversity, it is not designed for using two antennas covering two different coverage cells. The problem in using it this way is that, if antenna no. 1 is communicating to device no. 1 while device no. 2 (which is in the antenna no. 2 cell) tries to communicate, antenna no. 2 is not connected (due to the position of the switch), and the communication fails. Diversity antennas should cover the same area from only a slightly different location."
Diversity Antenna Systems
Diversity antenna systems are used to overcome a phenomenon known as multipath distortion of multipath fading. It uses two **identical antennas, located a small distance apart, to provide coverage to the same physical area.

What is the purpose of the foreground/background color?

I want to know what is the purpose of the foreground/background color in photoshop, am knew to PS, so am just trying to figure what are the purposes of some of these stuff.
Regards,
Jamaine Semple

Please read the Help files. Start with "Creating, Opening and Importing images".
• Select a canvas color option.
White Fills the background or first layer with white, the default background color.
Background Color Fills the background or first layer with the current background color.
Transparent Makes the first layer transparent, with no color values. The resulting document has a single, transparent layer as its contents.
The Foreground Color is chosen for the brush, shapes, etc.
Eventually, you want to read the entire content of the Help files, and maybe, hopefully, a book like " Photoshop Classroom in a Book".
Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its long and steep learning curve.
Take a class at a community college. Teaching you Photoshop from the ground up far exceeds the scope of the forum.

What are the advantages of Using SAP ?

what are the advantages of SAP when compared to other technologies?
what are the basic advantages of SAP

SAP's R/3, introduced in 1992, is the most used ERP system in the world.
The R/3 software package is designed to allow businesses to effectively and efficiently operate a variety of business processes within a single integrated information system.
The software is customizable using SAP's proprietary programming language, ABAP/4. R/3 is scalable and highly suited for many types and sizes of organizations and runs on six different platforms.
SAPu2019s R/3 has been designed to be the best ERP system in the four areas of human resources, financial, supply chain management, and marketing. R/3 is also an international product, and meets the local fiscal, language, and tax requirements of most countries.
SAPu2019s R/3 is very versatile, as it will operate on six different platforms, including the recently added Microsoft NT.
The R/3 package includes several very attractive features like it has a three-tier client/server system. Providing three tiers offers scalability and easier adaptation to the specific needs of large companies and fast-growing companies.
SAPu2019s R/3 is available in 14 different languages (German, English, Spanish, etc.) and also incorporates multiple currency features that provide essential information processing capabilities for multinational corporations.
R/3u2019s modules are organized by the functional areas of financial, human resources, supply chain management, and marketing. While information is entered separately for each specific module, the modules are fully-integrated and provide real-time applications. This means that data entered into one module is immediately and automatically updated and reflected in all oft the functional areas.
R/3 is composed of a single, virtual file structure with no subsystems.
In addition, SAP has released u201CMySAP.comu201D which is software that provides for data interaction and processing connections with the Web.
Financial and managerial accounting tools in SAP R/3 are contained in the financial accounting (FI) and the controlling (CO) modules. The General Ledger function in the FI module provides a comprehensive record of all information needed for external financial reporting. The accounting data is complete and accurate because the SAP system fully integrates all business transactions that were entered from all the operational areas of a company. In addition to the FI and CO modules, the SAP system includes the Investment Management (IM), Sales and Distribution (SD), Materials Management (MM), and Human Resources (HR) modules.
Management accounting tools in SAP R/3 are cost center accounting, internal orders, product costing, and activity based costing, profitability analysis and profit center accounting.
SAP R/3u2019s accounting features are modeled on German approaches to accounting, and thus they are well-organized and very efficient in processing accounting information and providing accounting statements and financial reports.
As stated previously, R/3 offers multiple currency features and a three-tier system that is capable of meeting very high demands from the accounting system for either transaction processing or financial reporting.
SAP was the first to implement integrated treasury capabilities. This attractive feature allows a corporate treasury department to function as an in-house bank by automating the control of cash flow, investment trades, and portfolio management.
R/3 provides check writing capability in its Accounts Receivable component which very few other programs offer.
Additionally, there is equal access to all data in the system. This means that personnel can access financial data directly from a computer screen rather than physically meet with the treasurer, controller, or some other similar person. In other words, R/3 offers real-time, immediately updated reporting.
R/3 also provides for a "single data entry point" where the data entered from any location is instantly sent to all other appropriate modules in the ERP system.
The accounts payable component of SAP R/3 contains four types of transaction blocks namely:
● The audit block● The receiving block● The vendor block● A manual block
These blocks make it much less likely that improper payments will occur.
SAP R/3 is organized with the concept that a business operates as a series of processes, which means that the company implementing R/3 may have to change and reorganize itself to properly fit with R/3 and use it effectively.

PUBLIC database account on oracle 10g - what are the default privilages?

Hi there,
I was wondering what are the default privileges to PUBLIC database account on oracle 10g R2. Could somebody explain it? Thank you in advance.

There is not a user PUBLIC. There cannot be a user PUBLIC. Users and roles share the same name space so if there is a role PUBLIC, there can not be a user PUBLIC.
The catalog table user$ contains both roles and users. The usage is determined by the TYPE# column - 1 = user, 0 = role.

Linking Multiple Group Chart of Accounts

Hello,
Our organizational structure is like
ABC Holding Group
in ABC Holding Group there are several group of companies like AB Group, BF Group etc.
In AB Group, we have 2 companies PERU and JKRY
We have some confusion about the structure of COA in SAP, we are setting Operational Chart of Accounts for PERU and JKRY and will assigned Group chart of Accounts for AB Group then is it possible to assigned AB Group to ABC Holding Group by using ABC Holding group (Group chart of Account)?
ABC Holding Company (Group Chart of Accounts) Assigned AB Group COA
AB Group (Group Chart of Accounts) Assigned PERU and JKRY Operational Chart of Accounts
Thanks,
Abid

Hi Suresh,
Group Chart of Accounts Mainly Used for Consolidation Purpose,
Follow the Following Procedure for Config Group Chart of Accounts,
1) First Create Group Chart of Accounts in T.Code:OB13
2) than Create Create the Operation Chart of Accounts same T.Code: OB13
3) while Creating the Operational Chart of Accounts,
In Consolidation
Group of Chart of Accounts: Here you assign earlier you created Group Chart of Accounts,
4) Than In FSP0 Create the Group Chart of Accounts, this Code you Have to assign while you are Creating the Operational Chart of Accounts

Impact of activing Group Chart of Account alone

Dear Experts,
What if i just active group chart of account and without enabling the whole consolidation funciton, what potential impact i might get?
Thanks for any advices!
Br
Sophie

Hi,
Consolidation function is a total different set of activiteis. Consolidation is generally done by using ec-cs on different instance with the use of BI folowing the set of procedures.
If you just activate the group chart of account you need to give respective account number while defining the Operating COA. With the help of this you can create FSV & different reports based on accounts & FSV on group coa level.

Group Chart Of Accounts and Group Account Number

Hi SAP Gurus,
For the sake of consolidated reporting, we are planning to create group chart of accounts and assign a Group account number to the GL account master. The structure is going to be like this:
Operating Expenses (Group Account : 461000).
Air Conditioning Exp   (GL account 461000001)
Elevators                   (GL account 461000002)
Coffee and snacks      (GL account 461000003)
This is being done to achieve a detail level reporting at the company code level and a consolidated reporting at a group level where the reporting would be based on group account or FSIs. We would define a financial statement version based on FSIs.
My question is : do we need to activate the consolidation (EC-CS) module to push the data to the FSIs or the data would flow automatically to the group account if we assign this to the GL master. If we go to fetch the data from the ECMCT table, do we need to have a consolidation unit?
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
thanks
sri

Hi,
There are certain preliminary steps to be carried out in ECCS. You can find them under SPRO->Enterprise Controlling->Consolidation->Integration: Preparation for Consolidation.
You need to choose the type of consolidation, create Company, link it to Cons Unit in ECCS, Creating/Copying FS Items (each account in Group COA will have an FS Item; 1:1), etc.,
After the setup, you actually need to carry out Rollup or Flexi Upload for importing FI data into ECCS FS Items. This is done to Data Monitor - CXCD.
In ECMCT, typical selections would be Dimension, Cons Unit, Cons COA, FS Item.
I suppose these preliminary steps are requried for the data to flow to FS Items.
Hope this clarifies.
Rgds.
