Hi All,
Has anyone worked on balance carryforward being done on a quarterly basis. If so please share your insights on the config changes and impact. Also how would the fiscal year variant be defined.
Currently client is using K4 variant.
Your inputs on this is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sharmila
Request clarification before answering.

Eli

shar, Interesting, Fiscal Year Variant will always be set to K4, so you can put that in the Characteristic set,Not sure what can be achieved with balance carry forward if outside the fiscal year for a year- year end of year, and first Month of the year have the balance carry forward positions generated on SAP BA. , I am you cna try in test mode try carry forward position but logically not for B&A, if your question is specific to P&L position post KDV runs, I am sure the KD VT -VV (valuation run for period) can be run for specified period qtrly, The B&L on qtr end is possible for qtr end, the restrictions post object generated is there, the accounting treatment for accrued expenses, especially at year-end. Accruals of both income and expenses are usually required to be at ‘revenue and cost’ recorded in the correct period so carry forward is not relevant however.

Under the BPC central setting, set the sequence executed data post saving (set a key date for time-dependent master data) selections. SAO BA will create multiple version of primary objects but with selected set, you can run BF (carry forward),
As standard, the Accrual and Valuation Run on the balance sheet reports (AL) for the shareholder is being run at a specific point in time, in contract to P&L statement that summarizes a company's revenues, costs, and expenses during a specific period of time- so P&L sceanrio very much possible BF.the P&L statement when they are incurred, not when the money flows in or out (so each month runs) is being provided given point, only balance sheet scenario on KFV give sense, ...
