Procedure documentation Carrying Out Profit and Loss Adjustments Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

The program for P&L adjustments can be carried out only once for each posting period. Once this is carried out, you can not carry out any clearing transactions within the period. In order to ensure this, the system searches for documents that have been appropriately indicated in the header before proceeding with postings. If any such documents are found, the system issues a warning message. However, this can be ignored.

You execute the P&L adjustment from the General Ledger menu. To do this, proceed as follows:

  1. Select Periodic processing ® Closing ® Regroup ® Profit and loss adjustment.
  2. Enter the following data:

    3. - Company code

    - Reporting year and period for which the adjustment should be carried out.

    - Field names, (from the account assignment block), that should not be taken into consideration during the allocation. By default the system takes into consideration all fields that you can call up using the F4 key. Fields to which no values have been posted will be automatically ignored.

    - If you select the Create batch input field, you must specify a document type and a session name for the documents you are creating. If you do not enter a posting date, the system uses the last day of the reporting period for this date.

    - You can also select whether or not to have a log at line item level. For each individual posting, the system then lists the original document these items came from.

  3. Under Program, select how you want to run the program.

The program generates a batch input session that you must process. The system displays the generated transfer posting documents in the log. Each block represents one document. Since the size of the document is limited, a block can also be posted in several documents. If the account determination is incomplete, the system does not produce a posting for the company code in question. The system lists the entries that need to be corrected at the end of the log.

If you have generated a log at the line item level, double click the document number to branch to the document display.
