Hi,

This is what SAP says about Special ledgers:

The special purpose ledgers enable you to report at various levels using the values from the various application components. The functions available in the special purpose ledgers enable you to collect and combine information, create and modify totals, and distribute actual and plan values. The values are transferred to the special purpose ledgers from other SAP applications and external systems.

Using the Special Purpose Ledger has no effect on the functions of other SAP applications.

For details you can refer to the following link:
