Balance Sheet Adjustments: Additional Functions 
Balance Sheet Adjustments: Additional Functions
There are four additional functions for the balance sheet adjustment:
You can display the logs of balance sheet adjustment posting runs at any time. These logs are identical to the logs of the posting run.
From the General Ledger menu, choose Periodic processing
The system reverses only the posting run management. Accounting documents generated by the posting run are not reversed and therefore, must be reversed manually.
You should use this function if:
- A posting run cannot be terminated (for example, system shut-down)
- You carried out a posting run with a key date greater than one you wanted to use.
The log is identical to the standard log of the posting run. You should note the listed numbers of the transfer documents. These documents must be reversed manually.
To reverse the last posting run, choose Periodic processing ® Closing ® Regroup ® Balance sheet adjustment ® Special functions from the General Ledger menu. Select Reverse posting run and then enter the company code in which the last posting run should be reversed.
You have the option to redetermine the adjustment accounts which will be posted to from the "balance sheet adjustment".
The adjustment accounts are normally determined during the distribution calculation. If at this time you have not maintained the account determination, or if it has changed, then you must enter or update the adjustment accounts noted in the distribution before posting.
To do this, select Periodic processing ® Closing ® Regroup ® Balance sheet adjustment: Special functions from the General Ledger menu and select Redetermine adjustment accounts.
The clearing account on which the zero balance business area balance sheet postings are carried out is always determined at the time of posting. If the system detects during posting that the adjustment account in at least one stored distribution is empty, program SAPF180K will be started automatically.
You can also carry out balance sheet adjustment for documents posted before Release 3.0.
To do this, select Periodic processing ® Closing ® Regroup ® Balance sheet adjustment: Special functions from the General Ledger menu and select Create adjustment . Then enter the company code and the date on which the release upgrade was carried out.
To determine the lower limit of the documents to be selected, enter the last reporting period for which a business area allocation had been carried out. The program then selects all customer and vendor items open for the end of the period as well as all documents posted as of the following period.
If you have not used business area allocation until now, specify the date from which you want a balance sheet adjustment. The program then selects all documents posted as of this date as well as all customer and vendor items open on the day before.
The log shows how many documents and customer and vendor open items per company code have been selected and noted for the adjustment.
