Mainainting additional fiscal year

[Former Member]

Dear all.

My client has gone live with SAP for quite some time. The company code fiscal year is from Apr to Mar. However for group reporting purposes, now they want to have the results from Oct to Sep.

At the same time for india reporting purposes, books also need to be mainatined using Apr to Mar fiscal year

Pls provide inputs as to how we can achieve this in SAP. Customer is already using SAP for 2 years now.

THanks

Hi,

As this is only for Reporting purpose, you can go for SPL (Special purpose ledger) activiation for the client which will solve this problem.

Hello Pooja,

One of the option could be u201CRollup Ledgersu201D, where one can combine summarized data from other ledgers in General Ledger Accounting.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

This could be achieved with NewG/L sub-ledgers functionality.

Dear Eli

currenlty the fiscal year is from apr to Mar

Can we Create a leading ledger and non leading ledger in the middle of the year

if yes, then i will like to create leading ledger with Oct to Sep and non leading ledger with Apr to Mar

So will I have to change the fiscal year variant in company code?

Hi Pooja,

Theoretically, it's possible. However, changing a fiscal year variant is a complicated job. You can read this note for further info: Note 672255 - Shortened fiscal year/changing fiscal periods.

I do not get you... Don't you have NewG/L? If you do, you already have at least leading ledger... And if you don't, you should migrate (see note 1070629 fo further info)
