Issue with migration accounts

[pankaj_adhikari]

Hi All

This is the first time I have done migration of balances and have couple of issues-

a) I used two migration accounts for migration activities one for G/L and another for vendor. After migration my balances look fine including retained earnings account but my migration accounts are still having balances. How to correct them?

b) I did migration as of 12/31/2017 and when running asset register it's showing some message. When running on 01/01/2018 the balances on asset register and G/L have differences. Not sure why asset register and g/l balances are mismatching.

Hi

Coming to the two areas listed by you, do the two migration GL have opposite balance with Dr and Cr postings and did you check if the upload file has the same balances as your trial balances? Also you need to share some more details of the differences.. are they in local currency, document currency or group currency? Based on my exp, there could be differences in either of them or all of them. You need to reconcile your files with trial balance from SAP and legacy system. There is no other way out to start!!

For the assets, is 12/31/2017 your middle of year or end of year asset upload. If it is middle of year asset upload, can you check the steps listed in the discussion below:

Also check if you have also upload asset balance in the GL and how legacy depreciation would be treated.,

Hi Sanil

a) Upload file has same balances as trial balances. Verified by client too.

b) The differences were in all 3 document, local & group currencies. We used two migration account & we have nullify AP migration account by equating with G/L migration account.

c) 12/31/2017 is end of the year.

d) Yes we uploaded asset reconciliation accounts too & they are fine.

e) Two tasks are pending now nullifying G/L migration account & tying G/L & asset register.

Hi

As you mentioned that AP Accounts are correct. In that case, some more questions, did your upload file have balance in Doc Currency only and local currency & group currency were determined by exchange rate of the system. You need to check that. Ideally the upload file should have all three entered. You could do a comparision for all the GL Accounts and what is mentioned in the upload file and check the differences. There is nothing from system perspective that you can do. You have to check all the balances for all the GL Accounts for your upload file.

On the assets side, check if system is calculating depreciation again for FY 17. There is some time errors in take over date of errors and that is why I mentioned a discussion in my earlier reply as well. Please make sure that you have at looked at all the aspects mentioned in the discussion.

Thanks & Regards
