2204930 - Balance Carryforward Reversal Run Is Created Without Postings - SAP Business ByDesign

• After executing the Reverse Carryforward (either for step 2 - Calculate and carry forward profit/loss or step 1 - Carry forward accounts) it's noticed that the Carryforward Reversal run created doesn't generate any postings in the Postings tab.
• In addition to that, it's noticed that the original Carryforward run is not marked as Reversed in the Balance Carryforward view.

SAP Business ByDesign

1. Go to General Ledger work center.
2. Go to Periodic Tasks, then Balance Carryforward view.
3. Open the respective Carryforward Reversal run.
4. Go to Postings tab.

Note that there are no postings displayed (for example: Journal Entries tab).

In addition to that, going back to the Balance Carryforward view and checking the original run it's noticed that the Reversed checkbox is not marked for it.

One of the set of books for which the original Balance Carryforward has been ran has been deactivated between the original run execution and the reversal run execution.

For example:

1. Original Balance Carryforward run step 2 - Calculate and carry forward profit/loss created/executed on DD.MM.YYYY
2. Set of Books ID 02 deactivated on DD+1.MM.YYYY
3. Reversal Balance Carryforward run step 2 - Calculate and carry forward profit/loss created/executed on DD+2.MM.YYYY

The deactivation of the set of books can be checked in the Integrate and Extend Business Configuration activity Set of Books, by clicking Edit in the respective Set of Books and checking the Changes tab.

• When a reversal of a Balance Carryforward run is executed, it will use the Company/Set of Books the original run used.
• If between the execution of the original run and the reversal a set of books is set to be inactive, this issue will occur. The log section entries created for the original run will not match the ones created for the reversal and an exception will be thrown in the respective class/method in the backend of your system (not visible in the UI - User Interface).
• In such case, report a case with your approval for SAP to create the reversal run(s) manually in the backend by skipping a specific verification. As a result, the run(s) is(are) created successfully.
