PARALLEL LEDGERS IN ASSET ACCOUNTING
We can use parallel ledgers in asset accounting for different valuations as per different accounting principles. In our scenario, company code AIPL (Hindustan Mills Ltd) follows two accounting principles that is US GAAP and Indian GAAP. In General Ledger accounting we have created ledgers for each GAAP i.e. leading ledger ‘0L’ for US GAAP and Non-leading ledger ‘X1’ for Indian GAAP. In asset accounting, we use master area i.e. area 01 for leading ledger valuation. For valuation of non-leading ledger, we create one separate real depreciation area and one derived depreciation area for each accounting principle so that the values of Asset Accounting and General Ledger Accounting can be reconciled. The derived depreciation area triggers adjustment postings to keep the general ledger and subsidiary ledgers in sync. We have already created ledger group for each ledger in General Ledger accounting, the same ledger group will be assigned in depreciation area of each accounting principle in asset accounting. The following depreciation areas will be created:
Depr Area | Description | Posting in GL |
1 | Book depreciation area (Leading Ledger) | Area posts in Real time |
30 | Valuation area for Indian GAAP (Non-Leading ledger) | Area post depr only |
55 | Delta Depreciation Area | Area Posts Only APC Directly |
1. Define Depreciation Areas
Define depreciation area 1 (book depreciation area ) and 30 (depreciation area for Indian GAAP). For depreciation area 1, system posts value in real time whereas for depreciation area 30, system posts only depreciation value. Use following menu path or transaction code:
SAP Menu | SPRO-> IMG -> Financial Accounting (New) -> Asset Accounting -> Valuation -> Depreciation Area-> Define Depreciation Area |
Transaction Code | OADB |
Using above menu path or T.code we will assign the ledger groups in the respective depreciation area i.e. ledger group '0L' in area 1 and ledger 'X1' in area 30:
In the above step, we have specified ledger group ‘0L’ as target ledger group for master depreciation area 01 that means asset values of depreciation area 01 will be updated in leading ledger ‘0L’ in General Ledger Accounting. The ledger group which we assign to master area must contain leading ledger. In the same way we will specify ledger group ‘X1’ for depreciation area 30 which we use for parallel valuation for Indian GAAP. The ledger group of the area for parallel valuation is not allowed to contain the leading ledger. Asset values in area 30 will be posted to Non-Leading ledger X1, as shown in the below screen:
Posting control in depreciation area 30 should be set as “Area posts Depreciation Only”.
We do not have to set up a separate set of GL accounts for this new depreciation areas 30. Instead we use the same set of GL accounts of the master depreciation area 01. In this scenario, we do not have to create any new GL accounts in the chart of accounts or in the company code. We also do not have to create a new financial statement version for different parallel valuations and Ledgers. Depreciation area 30 uses the GL account set of depreciation area 01. Ledger group ‘X1’ is not allowed to contain the leading ledger when we specify X1 as target ledger group in depreciation area.
To enable this setting, we have to select 1 in the field “Different Depreciation Area” in depreciation area 30 as shown in the above picture.
2. Setup areas for parallel valuation
Using this wizard, system automatically creates a derived depreciation area that is used for updating the APC differences in the ledger group of parallel valuation. Posting control in the derived depreciation area is set as "Area posts only APC directly" while the real depreciation area for parallel valuation posts only depreciation.
Real depreciation area 30 for parallel valuation use the GL accounts of the master depreciation area 01 for posting values. If the accounts of the master depreciation area are entered as cost elements, then this also applies to parallel valuation, although there is no update to CO in this general ledger.
SAP Menu | SPRO-> IMG -> Financial Accounting (New) -> Asset Accounting -> Valuation -> Depreciation Area-> Set Up Areas for Parallel Valuation |
Transaction Code | OADB_WZ |
Follow the steps below:
Click on "Continue" button.
Enter the real depreciation area 30 for parallel valuation and target ledger group X1 and click on "Continue" button.
Since we have not created any derived or delta depreciation area in chart of depreciation ALTM for company code AIPL, here we will select option “Create New Depreciation Area” so that system automatically creates the delta depreciation area for parallel valuation. System shows the difference between local and parallel valuation in this area and posts these differences in the ledger group for parallel valuation i.e. X1.
Click on "Continue" button.
Click on "Continue" button.
Click on "Continue" button and complete the setting.
Now see the depreciation area overview (Transaction code OADB)
Notice that ledger group X1 has assigned in both depreciation area 30, which is for parallel valuation and depreciation area 55 which is delta depreciation area for area 30 to post the difference between area 1 and 30.
3. Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class
In this IMG activity, we determine the depreciation terms that are used in asset classes.
SAP Menu | SPRO-> IMG -> Financial Accounting (New) -> Asset Accounting -> Valuation -> Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class |
Transaction Code | OAYZ |
Select asset class 3000 ‘furniture and fittings’ and double click on “Depreciation areas” in dialog structure:
Deselect the check box ‘deactivate’ for depreciation area 30 so that all the depreciation areas will appear when we create an asset master under this asset class.
We have specified useful life 2 years for area 01 and 4 years for area 30.
4. Integration with the General Ledger
In this IMG activity, we specify the balance sheet accounts and the depreciation accounts for master depreciation area 01 and parallel depreciation area 30. For derived depreciation area 55, account assignment is not required.
SAP Menu | SPRO-> IMG -> Financial Accounting (New) -> Asset Accounting -> Integration with the General Ledger -> Assign G/L Accounts |
Transaction Code | AO90 |
Assign balance sheet GL accounts to depreciation area 1 as follows:
Similarly assign balance sheet GL accounts to depreciation area 30 and then assign depreciation GL accounts for depreciation area 1 and 30 as follows:
Depreciation area 1:
Depreciation area 30:
5. Specify Document Type for Periodic Posting of Asset Values
In this IMG activity, we specify a default document type for periodic posting of asset balance sheet values (values other than depreciation). This document type is used only by the periodic posting program, RAPERB2000. We have created a separate document type ‘SX’ for this purpose, the same will assign to company code AIPL in this step as follows:
We have completed the necessary configuration steps for parallel ledgers in asset accounting. Now we will test the same settings for the business scenario in the following steps:
6. Scenario for parallel ledgers
Create an asset master for ‘Furniture’ with straight-line depreciation method with the following parameter controls:
Depreciation area | Useful life | Depreciation rate per year |
01 (For US GAAP) | 2 Years | 50% |
30 (Indian GAAP) | 4 Years | 25% |
Depreciation calculation for asset value 2, 40,000/- for each depreciation area is as under:
Depreciation area | Total Posting periods | Depr amount per period |
01 (For US GAAP) | 2 x 12 = 24 | 2,40,000/24 = 10,000 |
30 (Indian GAAP) | 4 x 12 = 48 | 2,40,000/48 = 5,000 |
Now, do the asset acquisition for above asset and then run depreciation for one period and finally retirement of the asset and see the effect in parallel ledgers.
7. Create asset master
Create an asset master for furniture.
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Fixed Asset -> Asset -> Create -> Asset |
Transaction Code | AS01 |
Click on “Deprec.Area” tab page and give useful life and depreciatoin key are 1 and 30 as follows:
Now save the data, system has created asset master number 300011 for furniture.
8. Asset acquisition
Do asset purchase on date 01.03.2013 for amount 240,000 using following menu path or transaction code:
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Fixed Asset -> Posting -> Acquisition -> External Acquisition -> With Vendor |
Transaction Code | F-90 |
Asset purchase document has posted as shown in above screen shot.
9. Display asset value in asset explorer
Use the following menu path or transaction code to display the asset value for all depreciation areas for the asset posted in earlier step:
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Fixed Asset -> Asset -> Asset Explorer |
Transaction Code | AW01N |
In the above screenshot, we can see the value in depreciation area 01 (Leading ledger valuation in local currency).
Now see the comparison value of depreciation area 30 as follows:
In the above picture, for depreciation area 30 (Non-Leading ledger valuation in local currency), system shows comparisons for four years (2013, 2014, 2015 & 2016) because we have given useful life four years in asset master 300011 for this depreciation area.
Note: System also shows value 10, 000 in fifth year i.e. 2017 this is because we have done asset acquisition in third period of the current year 2013 so in current year system could calculate depreciation only for 10 months and for remaining 2 periods, depreciation will be posted in year 2017 (5, 000 x 2 = 10,000).
Now display the comparison value of delta depreciation area 55. Here we can see that system shows the difference value between area 01 and 30 under depreciation area 55.
Example: For the year 2013, ordinary depreciation is 1, 00,000 in depreciation area 01 and for area 30 ordinary depreciation is 50, 000 in the same year so difference 50,000 (area 01minus area30) has shown under delta area 55. See the below picture:
10. Display Asset APC general ledger line items
The asset acquisition posting which is made in the leading ledger is automatically posted into the non-leading ledger also. Display G/L line items for asset ‘Furniture’ APC account for ledger 01 and 30 and notice that system has updated the same value in both the ledgers.
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> General Ledger -> Account -> Display/Change Items (New) |
Transaction Code | FAGLL03 |
Choose ledger ‘X1’ by clicking on "Choose Ledger" button.
Execute and see the balance:
Now choose ledger ‘0L’ by clicking on "Choose Ledger" buttonand execute:
11. Run periodic asset depreciation
When we run depreciation program using below menu path or transaction code, system posts separate documents in each ledgers i.e. ledger ‘0L’ and ledger ‘X1’ with their respective depreciation amount according to depreciation key assigned in asset master data for each depreciation area.
First execute test run and then update run as follows:
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Fixed Assets -> Periodic processing -> Depreciation run -> Execute |
Transaction Code | AFAB |
Execute:
Notice that system has created two separate depreciation documents with different values for each depreciation area i.e. area 1 and area 30. Since area 1 is assigned to ledger ‘0L’ and area 30 is assigned to ledger ‘X1’ in customizing so system will post separate depreciation values to each ledger.
12. Display depreciation GL line items
Display “book depreciation G/L account” line items for the each ledger using following menu path or transaction code:
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> General Ledger -> Account -> Display/Change Items (New) |
Transaction Code | FAGLL03 |
Display balance for Leading Ledger – 0L
Display balance for Non-Leading Ledger –X1
Notice that system has posted depreciation value 10,000 for ledger "0L" and 5,000 for ledger "X1"
Thus depreciation amount of 10, 000 under US GAAP is posted in leading ledger ‘0L’ and the depreciation amount of 5, 000 under Indian GAAP is posted in non-leading ledger ‘X1’
13. Asset retirement postings
We will retire the asset through sale for a value of Rs.2, 33,000 so that in US GAAP depreciation area, there will be a gain of Rs.3, 000. On the other hand, there will be a loss of Rs. 2, 000 in the Indian GAAP. The following are the accounting entries which should be updated in each ledger:
Asset Retirement Posting - 0L (Area 01) |
| |
Furniture & Fixture (APC A/c) | 2,40,000.00 | Cr |
Clearing Asset disposal | 2,33,000.00 | Dr |
Accm Depr-Furniture & Fixture | 10,000.00 | Dr |
Profit on asset Sale | 3,000.00 | Cr |
Asset Retirement Posting - X1 (Area30) |
| |
Furniture & Fixture (APC A/c) | 2,40,000.00 | Cr |
Clearing Asset disposal | 2,33,000.00 | Dr |
Accm Depr-Furniture & Fixture | 5,000.00 | Dr |
Loss on asset Sale | 2,000.00 | Dr |
But when we do retirement postings in SAP, system does not post the separate values to each ledger i.e. 0L and X1 as explained in the above example rather the entries made in the leading ledger is duplicated in the non-leading ledger. In this case, system will pass the following entry in area 30 (Ledger X1) which is the same accounting entry updated in area 01 (Ledger 0L):
Asset Retirement Posting – X1 (Area 30) |
| |
Furniture & Fixture (APC A/c) | 2,40,000.00 | Cr |
Clearing Asset disposal | 2,33,000.00 | Dr |
Accm Depr-Furniture & Fixture | 10,000.00 | Dr |
Profit on asset Sale | 3,000.00 | Cr |
Due to this posting in Indian GAAP area, we can see the following mismatches in Indian GAAP ledger X1:
- The reverse of accumulated depreciation is more by 5,000 because 10,000 has been reversed instead of 5,000
- There is no posting for actual loss of 2,000 in this ledger
3. Instead a gain of 3,000 has been posted.
To correct all these mismatches, the system automatically posts the entries necessary to reflect the correct position in Indian GAAP (Ledger X1) when we run the periodic asset posting program. This adjustment is done using the Delta depreciation area.
The following entry will be passed for adjustment using periodic program run:
Asset Adjustment Posting - X1 (Area30) |
| |
Accm Depr-Furniture & Fixture | 5,000.00 | Cr |
Profit on asset Sale | 3,000.00 | Dr |
Loss on asset Sale | 2,000.00 | Dr |
Lets see replicate the above scenario in SAP using the following menu path or transaction code to do asset retirement posting:
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Fixed Asset -> Posting -> Retirement -> Asset Sale Without Customer |
Transaction Code | ABAON |
Click on "Simulate" button.
Post the document:
Note: Line item 2 is for accumulated depreciation account in the above screenshot.
Display asset values in asset explorer for each depreciation area after retirement as shown below:
Depreciation Area 01:
Display Depreciation Area 30:
Display delta depreciation area 55:
Now display balance for G/L account 30000004 (Profits on asset disposal / sale) after doing asset retirement and notice that system has posted the same value to both ledger i.e. 0l and X1:
Transaction code: FAGLL03
Display balance for ledger X1:
In the above two screenshots, we can see that system has updated same value in both ledgers.
Now we need to correct these values and post the adjustment entry in non-leading ledgers using asset periodic posting as explained earlier in the example, use the following menu path or transaction code:
14. Periodic posting from fixed assets
We use this step to post the adjustment entries to specific ledger since we cannot post directly to reconciliation G/L. As per the retirement adjustment posting, we need to post to accumulated depreciation G/L account also which is reconciliation account.
SAP Menu | SAP Easy Access-> Accounting -> Financial Accounting -> Fixed Asset -> Periodic processing -> APC Values Posting |
Transaction Code | ASKB |
Give the asset number 300011 in initial screen for which we want to post the adjustment entry.
First execute in test mode and then execute update run as follows:
In the above screenshot, we can see that system posts this adjustment document to ledger group X1 only. When we execute the update run, system creates the following document as per accounting entry explained in the example:
Note: Line item 3 is for accumulated depreciation account in the above screenshot.
Now after posting this adjustment document through periodic run, display balance for ledger account 30000004 (Profit on disposal / sale of fixed assets) for Ledger – X1 and notice that system has posted one reverse entry for the amount 3,000 which was posted during asset retirement:
This way system nullifies the balance of “Profit on sale” account for ledger X1 and posts to “Loss on sale” account, see the below picture:
Finally, after completing the above steps, we will find the GL balances for each ledger as per the accounting entries given in the example as mentioned below:
Asset Retirement Posting - 0L (Area 01) |
| |
Furniture & Fixture (APC A/c) | 2,40,000.00 | Cr |
Clearing Asset disposal | 2,33,000.00 | Dr |
Accm Depr-Furniture & Fixture | 10,000.00 | Dr |
Profit on asset Sale | 3,000.00 | Cr |
Asset Retirement Posting - X1 (Area30) |
| |
Furniture & Fixture (APC A/c) | 2,40,000.00 | Cr |
Clearing Asset disposal | 2,33,000.00 | Dr |
Accm Depr-Furniture & Fixture | 5,000.00 | Dr |
Loss on asset Sale | 2,000.00 | Dr |

SAP AIS + SAP Financial Closing Cockpit = possible Internal Control System
Introduction:
Purpose of internal control
Some companies are facing challenge to implement an internal control system.
Big companies listed on a stock exchange are forced by law to implement a system of
Internal control and risk management, SAP GRC Solution might be a good and valueable choice.
Small or medium sized companies who are not willing to implement a SAP module at the moment, but also want to have some kind of internal control can use SAP AIS for this purpose. (Business and System Audit)
To have some kind of automatism they can combine SAP AIS with SAP closing cockpit
Implementation of internal control with SAP AIS and SAP Closing Cockpit:
- Entering SAP AIS menu:
Select: other menu and enter (as instance) *SAP*Auditor
Select SAP composite role
SAP AUDITOR is the “master role” there are many roles available for special purpose like:
SAP Auditor for AR, FA or TAX. When you choose one of these roles the menu has
only functions concerning TAX or FA.
SAP AIS module is available
In this menu you will find hundreds of functions for control. One main advantage is,
that SAP provides all these functions in ONE menu
The menu also has some main topics like:
Making System Audit: Checks concerning security
Business Audit: Checks concerning financial reporting
- Using SAP Closing Cockpit:
You can use SAP Closing Cockpit to run functions automatically.
From SAP EHP6 an additional task for internal control is available
- Building a Risk and Control Matrix in Excel
You can set up risk and control matrix as an instance for:
Fixed Assets, Accounts Receivables/Payables, General Ledger, Bank Accounting
Your Risk and control matrics might look like this example:
First column: Target
Second column: Risk
Third column: Cecking activity
Fourth Column: How control activity it is supported by SAP AIS
In the SAP AIS menu you also can find a lot of folders named CONTROLS.
Let yourself be inspired from these control routines, and use it for your risk and control
matrics
Example for control routine
Target: Check if posting have been made promptly and accurate time.
Risk: Postings have not been made contemporary, and might have some bad impact on
Quality of financial reporting
Checking activity: Using function S_ALR_87100998, here you have 3 statistical reports and 4
ranking reports.
Documentation:
Yes, this is not SAP GRC, so you have to make documentation manually.
In my opinion, it is possible setting up some kind of robust internal control system by combining
SAP AIS + SAP Financial Closing Cockpit.
Thank you for your valuable feedback,advice and discussion.
All the best
Erwin

Configuring the Interest Calculations Procedure
Configuring the Interest Calculations Procedure
This configuration allows you to charge interest on overdue customer accounts. Interest can be calculated by using the line items or overall account balances. SAP keep tracks of the date of the last interest run and stores it in the customer master record.
First create an Interest Indicator.
- OB46 - Interest Settlement Calculation Type
Int Calc. Type
P - calculate interest based on line items.
S - calculate interest based on account balances.
Secornd, make it avaliable to the interest run program.
- OB82 - Interest Terms
Third, determine the interest rate that will be used by the calculation.
- OBAC - Define Reference Interest Rates
- OB83 - Enter the Reference Interest Rates Value
Fourth, assign the interest indicator to the reference interest rate.
- OB81 - Define Time Dependent Terms
Finally, determine the how and to which accounts the interest program will post.
- OBV1 - Prepare Interest on Arrears Calculation

How G/L tolerance/clearing works. Step by Step.
Step-1
OB57- Assign users tolerance group.
Here we are creating a blank tolerance group which is assigned to userid. However at step no: 2 (Tolerance group for users) can created as 'abc' and that can be assigned to the step no:1.
`
Step-2
OBA4 –FI Tolerance group for users
Amount per document determines that the user has a privilege to post a transaction maximum up to the specified amount per document/invoice. Amount per open item pertains only to Customer/Vendor line items (F-43,F-22) and not to G/L line items (F-02) Percentage specified in Cash discount field determines the upper limit of discount which user is authorized to process.
This permitted payment difference apply to the open item managed g/l clearing account and during Customer/Vendor payment clearing. During clearing process system considers which ever is the lowest whether the specified amount or the percentage.
Cash discount adjusted field applies during customer/vendor payment clearing. Amount specified in cash discount adjustment will add to the already existing discount conditions. If the payment received is less than the supposed amount and if the difference is not more than the amount specified in this field, system consider this as additional discount and it will reflect in the g/l assigned for discount loss/gain.
Step-3
OBA0-Tolerance for groups of G/L account in local currency
Here tolerance for groups of G/L account purely for open item managed g/l clearing account. eg; GR/IR,payable a/c, other clearing a/c which you want to clear manually or automatically.During clearing process system considers which ever is the lowest whether the specified amount or the percentage. Also system consider the lowest amount from both the conditions specified in oba4 and oba0.
Step-4
FS00 –Create following GL account.
Cash and Rent payable accounts are created as open item.
Step-5
Assign GL Tolerance group to the open item managed account.
Here we are assigning the tolerance group created (step-03) to open item g/l account.So this account will behave according to the condition specified.
Step-6
OBXZ-Maintain FI configuration: Automatic Posting –Accounts.
During the clearing process (F-03) the clearing differences will hit the gain and loss account specified here.
Step-7
F-02- Enter GL Account Posting-1
In the first posting above the clearing account is credited for 1000 and in the next transaction below the clearing account is debited for 950 and due to that a difference of 50 arises. Since 50 is equal or less than the tolerance amount specified in both G/L and user tolerance, it's eligible to get cleared. However if it was more than 50, then system will throw error and won't clear during F-03. Also it must be noted that clearing amount must meet both user and g/l tolerance condition to get cleared.
Step-8
F-02- Enter GL Account Posting-2
Step-9
FBL3N-G/L Account Line item display-Open items.RED
These two line items are from the previous two postings, which are not cleared and status is red.
Step-10
F-03 –Clear GL Account
Here the open item managed g/l account need to be specified for clearing process.
Step-11
Click Process open items and follow the next screen below
Here the clearing difference is 50.00 which is 5% according to the condition specified in oba0 and oba4.Save it and the document will get posted in Company code AA
Step-12
FB03-Display posted document.
Tolerance gain amount got posted to the appropriate g/l account assigned in obxz.
Step-13
FBL3N-G/L Account Line item display- Select Cleared items.
Both the line items from Step-9 with status red is displayed here as cleared along with the clearing difference specified in oba0 and oba4.
Hope this will be useful.
Regards,
Sam

Step 1. Maintain Object Attributes
Click on Save and come back
Step 2. Maintain Source Structures - Here we need to create the structures based on the BAPI. Here we are using the Business Object BUS6300 which belongs to Functional Module ( BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST ).
Below is the screenshot for your ready reference.
In the BAPI of G/L, We are having 3 Stages
- 1. Document Header
- 2. Line Items
- 3. Currency (Amount)
So I am going to Create three structure in LSMW.
Click on Save and come back
Step 3- Maintain Source Fields - Here we need to maintain the source fields which is available in the BAPI. We can find the list of Fields which comes up automatically by clicking on "Object Overview", Below is the screenshot.
Copy all the field onto Excel File, as it becomes easy for you at the time of Field Assignment. Below is my excel sheet screenshot for your reference
Do the same for Item & Currency Field as well.
Now will move back again to LSMW and do the field assignment.
Click on Save and Come back.
Step 4- Maintain Structural Relations:- Here we will maintain the relationship between the Header, Line Item & Currency.
Now click on Fisrt Item (Currently Blue in Colour) and then click on "Relationship"
Now link the three one by one in a sequence. Below is the screenshot.
Then save and come back
Step 5;- Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules
Now click on Extra ----> Auto Field Mapping or CTRL + SHIFT + F3
Click Ok.
Mapping has been done correctly. Save and Come back.
Step 6; - Specify Files- Here we need to maintain the Three File structure for Header, Line Item & Currency (As per the BAPI)
Do the same process for all the 3 Files (Header, Line Item & Currency)
also change the name of Imported Data and Converted data to anything, else system sometimes gives the error due to this naming convention.
Click on Save & Continue.
Step 7:- Assign Files

Click on Save and Back.

Now after all these steps we can see that the process has been completely done and without any issues.
In this document I tried to explain the process from very basic point of view.
I would also request you all to let me know if you need any help on this from my side.
Thank you all for your valuable support.
