Dear Rajaram, Document Splitting Document splitting allows us to display documents using a differentiated representation in the New GL. In essence, what document splitting does is to assign selected characteristics to all line items in a financial document, which may include business areas, functional areas, profit centers and/or segments, or any combination of these. Zerobalancing documents facilitate the delivery of balanced financial statements below the company code level, by ensuring that every financial document nets to zero by the defined characteristics. Configuration 1) Define the update of the characteristics 'Profit Center' and 'Partner Profit Center' in the ledger by selecting the scenario 'Profit center update' (Customizing: Financial Accounting (New) -> Financial Accounting Basic Settings (New) -> Ledgers -> Ledger -> Assign Scenarios and Customer-Defined Fields to Ledgers). 2) For document splitting, we can define the field 'Profit center' as a splitting characteristic in the document splitting (Customizing: Financial Accounting (New) ->General Ledger Accounting (New) -> Business Transactions -> Document Splitting -> Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger Accounting). Set the 'Zero balance' indicator again for the added field 'Profit Center'. You can now create balance sheets on the profit center. 3) We must also activate the Mandatory Field check to ensure that the profit center is set in all postings. If you want to display balance sheet items at profit center level (for example, receivables and payables). Trust this helps much! Cheers, Ashok SINGH

Hi

Doc Splitting is available in Ver 5 and 6 only.

You can use the document splitting procedure to split up line items for selected dimensions (such as receivable lines by profit center) or to effect a zero balance setting in the document for selected dimensions (such as segment). This generates additional clearing lines in the document. Using the document splitting procedure is the prerequisite for as well as an essential tool for drawing up complete financial statements for the selected dimensions at any time.
