New GL Migration

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

We have configured recently all necessary configurations for Document Splitting for Business Area.

It is working fine & there is proper document splitting.

However, since this is the 5th period, documents have been posted for the last 4 months without the document splitting function being activated. So, even if we use Document Splitting now, the Business Area balances would not get nullified.

Is there any way by which we can migrate the old data as per the new Document Splitting rules, so that we may get zero balance Business Areas.

Thanks in Anticipation,

Regards,

Hi Gimmo,

My actual query was that,

Recently we have activated Document Splitting for Business Area & it is working fine, however our concern is that since this is mid year, in the previous periods there has been postings (when Doc Splitting was not activated), so even after Doc Splitting the Business Area balances are not Zero.

So, what is it that we need to do, so that:-

a) The Business Area balances are zero?

b) Any precautionery measure we need to take before moving it to Production?

Please reply.
