Dear All,

I want to know about t-code S_ALR_87012277 report for End of Service actually in this t-code report showing column "Accumulated Balance" Is this total balance of End Of Service GL Account or What this column means in SAP?

How can I find the total amount for GL account for End of Service?

Hi Mohammed

The column "Accumulated Balance" shows the current balance on the account at the point in time of the report execution. This includes balance carry foward and all debit and credit movements. I am not exactly sure what you mean by "balance of end of Service"?

To display the balance for a single GL account you can also use transaction code FS10N.

Best regards

Dear Ignaz,

Thanks for the information.

The "Total Balance of End of service" means like the company implemented SAP in 2014 and now we need the total amount of end of service from 2014 to 2018 for active employees that we need to pay to active employees.

Accumulated Balance = 2014 to 2018 end of service balance? if no how we can find actually amount of till 2018 end of service for all active employees.

Right now Total amount when we calculated per employees by HR is greater than "Accumulated Balance".

The auditor is telling "Accumulated balance" should be total end of service amount till 2018 (2014 to 2018) is it correct?.

The total amount of end of service from 2014 to 2018 is 2 million but accumulated balance is coming 432700 only.

Hi Aarif

Thanks for the clarification. It seems to me that this is more an accouting question. You should analyse the postings on the account and check whether carry forward was executed every year and especially what kind of postings were posted to the account, e.g. only numbers related to payments ot active employees, were any postings reversed etc.

For Balance Sheet accounts the SAP report always shows accumulated balances since beginning by including the carry Forward (in your case for example 2014 - 2018). For P&L accounts on the other hand the report always shows the total balance only for the selected year.

Best regards
