RTC: Approach for Balance carry forward

[former_member540457]

I am implementing Real Time Consolidation on S4 HANA on premise 1610 Release stack 02(05/2017) FP.

After year end, we are performing the Balance Carry forward in Jan next year using the Balance Carry forward rule to bring the Balance Sheet Balances from previous year to opening year as opening balances.

These balances that the Business rule will carry forward to opening year are basically present in the Consolidation journal table ACDOCC.

Now for all SAP entities, Finance guys will also perform the Balance Carry forward to bring the balances to Next year in table ACDOCA.

My query is that after we perform Balance carry forward how will the system behave in Currency Translation in JAN? Will it duplicate the values from ACDOCC and ACDOCC?

Hi,

Are you considering period '000' in your foundation view? (POPER != '000')

If no, you are not going to have any problems with your currency translation.

Hi Victor,

We are doing Balance Carry forward direct from period 12 in last year to period 01 in next year in BPC.

We are not posting/reporting anything in period 00 from BPC.

So If I the following steps:

1. Perform BCF in Period 01 of Opening year to get the closing balances of period 12 of last year.

2. Perform Currency Transaltion in S4 HANA layer using RTCCT for period 01 of opening.

I am not going to get any duplicated records given Finance guys have done BCF for ACDOCA table?
