Hi all

Could you explain when G/L a/c's are configured Centrally, at the Company code level and at the Chart of Accounts level?

Thanks!

Hello Kavitha,

If you create GL account master separately at COA level and comp code level, advantage is that you can copy the COA level to other comp codes, if you want the other comp codes to have the same GL accounts. When U want multiple comp codes to have the same GL account settings this is helpful. But you will have to create comp code segment for each comp code separately.

If you create GL account centrally it can be used only by the company code for which U creatd it.

Hi,

If your client has multiple company codes, he still can use one chart of accounts. That's why SAP gives a possibility to define the G/L on the level of CoA, and then make the same on company code level. In some scenarios certain comapny codes do not have all the accounts in CoA, but only part of them.

Of course, if you have only one company code, this is irrelevant and every G/L in CoA is defined also at the level of company code.
