You use this program in new General Ledger Accounting to perform closing and opening entries for a change in fiscal year.

Note

For classic General Ledger Accounting, you use the program: Year-End Postings (RFSUMB00).


For New GL use the program:  FAGL_YEC_POSTINGS or FAGL_YEC_POSTINGS_EHP4

This program creates the following postings:

    • Postings for year-end closing of the profit and loss statements for the fiscal year result

Account Selection  Parameter:      E      1st Run: P&L Accounts

    • Postings for closing and opening the balance sheet accounts for the new fiscal year

                        Account Selection  Parameter:      P      2nd Run: Balance Sheet Accounts

In this program, the postings are created in real time using the interface to Accounting (with reference transaction AWTYP Reference procedure      = GLYEC          Year-End Closing Doc).

The totals records resulting from the closing and opening entries are updated with RRCTY Record type = 5 to be able to distinguish them in reporting from totals
records from operational postings (record type 0). The postings are made using the account assignments in the totals record table.

To summarize balances using specific account assignment characteristics, you can use the Business Add-In (BAdI)

Summarize Balances Using Account Assignment Characteristics.


Note

Validation is not performed for transferred account assignment characteristics.

You can choose between the following country versions of the program:

    • Italy        SAP&ITALY      Standard Variant for Italy
    • Slovakia SAP&SLOVAKIA Standard Variant for Slovakia
    • Turkey    SAP&TURKEY              Standard Variant for Turkey
    • Portugal  SAP&PORTUGAL      Standard  Variant for Portugal
    • Romania SAP&ROMANIA          Standard      Variant for Romania
    • France  SAP&FRANCE  Standard Variant for France
    • Colombia  SAP&COLUMBIA    Standard Variant for Columbia

When creating your own report variants, always use the respective system variant SAP&* as a template.
Parameters that are set in the background in these system variants influence how the report performs postings. To ensure that the posting logic meets the
legal requirements for the respective country, you should always start the report with the respective system variant or with a modified copy. The standard
delivery corresponds to the posting logic for Italy.

Year-end closing entries for profit and loss statements


The program saves the annual net profit or loss in table FAGL_TRVOR as the comparison value for closing the balance sheet accounts.

Note

In Turkey, you have to close account group 7 separately. To do this, use the program Turkey: Closing Account Class 7 (RFIDTRCLACCL7).


Since the postings are made using the reference transaction GLYEC, you can make postings directly to G/L accounts for which the Post Automatically Only
indicator is selected. You cannot enter any other characteristics or account assignments.

Before performing the program in an update run, ensure the following:

  • No other postings are made in your system at the same time.
  • For  the postings with this program, you use a separate document type with its own document number range. This enables you to clearly identify this type
