2 quick questions- New GL

[Former Member]

Hello friends,

Just wanted to check quickly with you on the following 2 points with respect to New General ledger of ECC 6.0.

is it possible to use the classic General ledger with ECC 6.0. The context for asking this is though the client is implementing SAP ECC 6.0 but they donot have the requirement of document splitting or reporting as per various difrferent accounting principles or maintaining parallel ledgers. they have a requirement for Profit centre reporting which I think can be made through PCA implementation. if the use of classic GL is permitted how to get that activated in the SPRO menu because as of now I see new GL activated...

(ii) Can we use coding block for additional account assignment purpose in FI module of ECC 6.0 (new GL)?

Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Manish,

it is possible to use classic G/L. You can activate/deactivate it using the following programs (through SE38):

RFAGL_SWAP_IMG_NEW

RFAGL_SWAP_MENU_NEW

(ii) yes it possible using t-code OXK3

Hi Manish

RFAGL_SWAP_MENU_NEW --> to activate/deactivate new SAP Easy access menu

RFAGL_SWAP_IMG_NEW --> to activate/deactivate new IMG (SPRO) menu

I don't know if it's also possible to hide the new transactions..

Hi Alberto,

I am able to see the Financial Accounting(New) appearing and disappearing in the SPRO menu when I use RFAGL_SWAP_IMG_NEW. The next logical question from me is that I am not bale to see the old Financial accounting appearing in SPRO menu. How to get this.

For easy access menu- I am able to see the New GL tarnsactions appearing and disappearing in the SPRO menu when I use RFAGL_SWAP_MENU_NEW. At the same time the classic GL transactions also remain in the system. I mean to say that when i deactivate the new GL things only classic GL transactions appear while when I activate them both of them appear and this seems fine.

Please help me out.
