Hi Ram,

Non-leading ledgers  

1.Non-leading ledgers are activated by company code.

2.You can define additional currencies that deviate from those used by the leading ledger.

3.As a second and third currency of a non-leading ledger, you may only use currency types that you have already assigned to the relevant company code for the leading ledger.

4.You can define a fiscal year variant that differs from the leading ledger. If you don't specify a FYV, the FYV of the company code is automatically used.

5.You can also define a posting period variant that differs from the leading ledger.

6.Separate document types and number ranges can be defined for non-leading ledgers by users, to ensure continuity in ledger numbering.

7.Non-leading ledger updates the profit center, segment.

8.The non-leading ledgers are used as parallel ledger together with the leading ledger. This can be used to apply different accounting standards, such as IAS/IFRS or US-GAAP
