3767572 - Perform Foreign Currency Valuation for Balance Sheet Accounts Missing in Ledger 4G - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

Postings generated by the Perform Foreign Currency Valuation app are created in one ledger only when valuating G/L Account Balances. For example, postings are created in ledger 0L but not in ledger 4G, or vice versa.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Run the Perform Foreign Currency Valuation app.
  2. Select Valuate G/L Account Balances.
  3. Execute the valuation run.
  4. Observe that postings are not created in all ledgers, e.g 0L but not in ledger 4G.

Cause

According to KBA 3191636 - Universal Parallel Accounting: Scope Information:

Group valuation:

General Ledger Accounting:

  • Posting currency adjustments: Postings in a ledger group containing several ledgers including 4G or postings in a ledger group left blank are not yet supported. In this case, post currency adjustments either in legal ledgers only or in the group valuation ledger only. 
  • The following valuation runs are not supported:
    - Regroup Payables/Receivables
    - Perform Further Valuations 
    - Perform Foreign Currency Valuation; please use the Advanced Foreign Currency Valuation run instead.
  • Transaction currency amounts cannot be reported according to group valuation. The transaction currency amounts displayed are based on legal valuation. Note that this can also have implications for the balance carryforward.

Theoretically this program could be used to re-valuate open items for group ledger, when group ledger is in the same ledger group of one standard ledger. But group ledger specific data are ignored because this program ignores them.

Note: G/L balances are re-valuated by this program ledger by ledger. This means, it is not possible to valuate G/L balances for group ledger. Currency adjustments need to be posted instead

Resolution

This scenario is supported by Advanced Foreign Currency Valuation.
