Change G/L in account determination

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

Need your help.

My client wants to change the reconciliation G/L account for one of the account determination. But in older G/L, they have already posted entries. Depreciation run also has been performed. In AO90 system gives the error "You can no longer change the value 'XXXXXX" for the G/L account"

Now I want to know what is right way to change the G/L in account determination. What wil be the impact for old values.

Thanks & Regards,

Seema

Dear:

You can post the balance of old asset reconciliation account in FB05 to a clearing account which may be opened in your system . Later on transfer the balance from clearing account to the new recon account as defined in OAMK using FB05. This would nullify the impact . Accounting entries that would be generated will be

1st step

Asset clearing A/C Dr

Asset Recon A/C(old) Cr

2nd step

Asset recon A/C(new) Dr

Asset clearing account Cr
