Symptom
The displayed amounts differ between the app Display Customer Summary - China and the app Display G/L Account Balances.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the app Display Customer Summary - China.
- Compare the amounts displayed in the report with those in the app Display G/L Account Balances.
- Observe the discrepancy in amounts.
Cause
The discrepancy arises from differences in the data acquisition logic of the two apps:
In the app Display Customer Summary - China, unrealized foreign exchange gains/losses are only retrieved when the account type is D (customer). For accounts with account type S, these amounts are not retrieved.
The app Display G/L Account Balances does not have this limitation. It retrieves amounts directly from the account balances, including all relevant data.
Resolution
Do not directly compare the amounts between Display Customer Summary - China and Display G/L Account Balances, as their data acquisition logic differs.
For a more accurate comparison of amounts, please use the app Display G/L Account Balance - Summary/Journal Entry View.
If analysis of the discrepancy between the two apps is required, click on the transaction amounts in each app to review the detail, and identify any missing or differing entries.
