SAP automatic funtionality for RE will only roll to the Retained earnings when the carryover occurs at year end.

You can have multiple RE accounts which would be assigned by a variant in the master data. The period one you have is probably a regular GL account. You can use your own GL accounts if you choose. They would serve to zero out the net income accounts. You still need to run the carryforward function at year end.

pls assign points if helpful as a way to say thanks.
