Reconciliation Ledgers - Subsequent Posting 

Use

You can update the reconciliation ledger online, and also subsequently structure the reconciliation ledger using the CO data. You can use this function for the following:

This can be useful if you want to keep system usage to a minimum during the runtime, and want to use low usage time to update the reconciliation ledger. This enables you to avoid high system use at peak times by running the subsequent postings in the background when system use is low.

When follow-up postings are made, the SAP R/3 System checks if transaction data has already been posted in the reconciliation ledger for the relevant periods. The system deletes these values and posts the correct CO documents in the reconciliation ledger.

Procedure
