New General Ledger Accounting and Profit Center Accounting


Assignment Monitor for Profit Centers The assignment monitor for profit centers enables you to easily locate missing or incorrect assignments of objects to profit centers. This function also supports you in performing closing correctly at the profit center level. Now you can also check the assignment to profit centers for the following objects:
n

Sales order items and

n Real estate objects for Flexible Real Estate Management (RE-FX) For more information, see Assignment Monitor for Profit Centers in the SAP Library. Wizards for Customizing Document Splitting The wizards provide a new and user-friendly way of accessing the Customizing settings for document splitting. The following wizards are available: n n

Wizard for Configuring Document Splitting

Wizard for Creating a Document Splitting Rule Both wizards contain step-by-step instructions that enable you to make the Customizing settings and to check those settings. With the wizard for creating a document splitting rule, you can also simulate documents on the basis of existing documents. Enhanced Standard Configuration of Document Splitting Using these standard settings for document splitting considerably simplifies configuring some of the business processes, such as those for nonassigned payments. Configuration of these processes in document splitting is now restricted principally to assigning the default account assignment values of the predefined constant and to assigning the new document splitting rule to the relevant document type. Navigation from FI Reports to CO Reports This function enables you to improve the integration of Financial Accounting (FI) with Controlling (CO) for reporting, to reduce the effort required for reconciliation, and to make the origin of values more transparent. From within the profit center reports and segment reports in new General Ledger Accounting, you can use the report-report interface to call up various summary reports from Controlling. The profit center and the origin object type (such as cost center or internal order) are the points of connection between the sender report in new General Ledger Accounting and the receiver report in Controlling. In other words, the receiver reports are derived from the selected origin object type of the sender report. You can use either predefined standard reports or your own reports and transactions as receiver reports. For more information, see Navigation from FI Reports to CO Reports. Validation of Account Assignment Combinations This function prevents postings with invalid account assignment combinations from being posted and thereby ensures the consistency of your reporting. You can define your own validation rules and use them to check whether different account assignment combinations are useful from a business point of view and, where necessary, prevent invalid postings. You can also extend the check to include an account assignment combination of G/L accounts and cost centers and prevent postings with this account assignment combination. The system only checks documents that are in the process of being posted; it does not check parked documents. During postings, you can display the account assignments to be checked and determine the result. In Customizing, you can assign a validation strategy with validation rules to an entire company code as the default strategy. You can define exceptions for specific ledger groups. You can use the validation log to analyze validation rules. For more information, see the SAP Library under Validation of Account Assignment Combinations.

Parallel Ledgers
Document Display Specific to Ledger Groups The selection criterion for the ledger group has been added to the logical database BRF (Business Rule Framework, the document database). You can therefore make selections by ledger group or by ledger in all reports that use the logical database BRF to select data. The following reports have been adapted so that they now contain the ledger group as a selection criterion:
n n

Compact Document Journal (RFBELJ00) Compact Document Journal [not accessible] (RFBELJ00_NACC)

Document List (RFBUEB00)

Furthermore, you can also add the ledger group as a selection criterion to your own reports that are based on the logical database BRF. Closing/Opening Postings for the Leading Ledger (Country-Specific) You can make year-end closing entries and opening entries for specific ledgers, including for the leading ledger. For this, you use the program Closing/Opening Postings at Year End. This program is intended mainly for the following countries: Italy, Slovakia, Turkey, Portugal, Romania, and Columbia.

Local Close
Separate Check on Posting Period for Postings from CO to FI This function enables closing operations in Controlling and Financial Accounting to be performed more smoothly. Previously, the FI period had to remain open during closing operations at period end all the while postings from Controlling were being transferred to Financial Accounting. Now, you can continue to post CO transactions in the preceding period even if this period has been closed for FI postings. For this, you can use the additional period interval in the Customizing settings for the posting periods; this period interval is only relevant for postings from Controlling to Financial Accounting. It is valid for postings created with the real-time integration as well as for postings created using the CO-FI reconciliation ledger during closing operations. For more information, see the SAP Library under Opening and Closing Posting Periods. Check Posting Period for Non-Representative Ledgers This function reduces the effort required for coordination between the different accounting principles during closing operations. Previously, when a posting was made to different ledgers, the period check was only performed for the representative ledger. This meant that posting periods in non-representative ledgers were not considered. You can now specify that the posting period check is also performed for non-representative ledgers. In this way, postings can still be made in non-representative ledgers even after the posting period in the representative ledger has been closed. Furthermore, you can specify a different fiscal year variant for nonrepresentative ledgers. For more information, see the SAP Library under G/L Account Posting.
