Operational Chart of Account in S/4HANA cloud Private cloud edition

[former_member613804]

Dear Team,

Gone through the available documentation on Chart of Accounts and thereby endedup with few points of concern specific to Private cloud.

I understood that YCOA is the standard default operative COA in coud system and cannot be replaced by customer specific COA. However, Renumbering is allowed, change of text is allowed etc.,

Will it applies only to Public Cloud.? or is it same for private edition as well?
Any Differences exists?

Would be helpful if someone could throw some light on this.!

Thanks & Regards,

To get preconfiguration in your system (private cloud edition) you have two options:

a) Provision enterprise management layer: The system will come already with all preconfiguration. This process can be executed before system provisioning. Keep in mind that for private cloud edition customers the enterprise management layer has an additional service cost. Please refer to the notes I sent you for additional information.

b) You can activate Best Practices. This will also provide the preconfiguration you need. To look at best practices please look here: https://rapid.sap.com/bp/BP_OP_ENTPR

Hope this helps

Hi marco.valencia

Your inputs are informative and thanks for that.

of course Option "a" comes with an extra cost, but I would like to understand the basic procedural difference between "a" and "b" in the context of COA. As explained in your previous comment, I understood that option "b" facilitates to build operational COA from scratch and takes lot of time (which we typically do in On-premise). But if we choose to go with option "a", I would like to understand the procedure by which we achieve the creation of our own COA without expending that much time.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi! Did you figure out if it is possible to do the renumbering of YCOA accounts on the Private Cloud Edition?
