3754889 - Compare General Ledger Account Balances across Multiple Ledgers in a Single Run - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

  • A report is needed to compare general ledger account balances across multiple ledgers in a single run.
  • Reporting apps allow selection of only one ledger per run; a side-by-side view across multiple ledgers is not available.
  • No error messages are shown.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open a general ledger reporting app (for example, Journal Entry Analyzer, Trial Balance or Display line Items in General Ledger).
  2. Attempt to select multiple ledgers in the filter criteria.
  3. Observe that only one ledger can be selected and the report must be run separately for each ledger.

Cause

By standard design, multiple-ledger display/comparison in a single run is not supported in the current S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition reporting apps; this is a missing functionality.

Resolution

  1. Acknowledge that this is standard system behavior; multiple-ledger display in a single run is not available in the current S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition reporting apps.
  2. Use the workaround: run the report separately for each relevant ledger and compare the results manually.
  3. If this capability is required, Please follow the KBA 2963059 and submit an influence request at the site https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/campaign
