Symptom

In General Ledger Accounting (new), you want to subsequently assign an


additional ledger to a company code in SAP ERP.

Other Terms

Migration, FI-GL (new), General Ledger Accounting (new), ledger, activation of


new ledger, implementation of ledger approach, ledger approach, parallel
accounting

Reason and Prerequisites

From a business and legal point of view, General Ledger Accounting (new) is
comparable with the classic general ledger (GLT0 ledger 00). Thus, there is an
auditing requirement.

For this reason, before making changes in customizing of General Ledger


Accounting (new) and before the activation of a new ledger, the possible
business effects with regard to already posted documents or processes to be
changed must be taken into account.

If you activate a ledger later on—whether in order to implement parallel


accounting or to change an existing accounts approach to the ledger approach—you
have to structure accounts and already posted line items of the subsequently
implemented ledger in addition to consistently changing various interdependent
customizing settings (for example, for General Ledger Accounting and Asset
Accounting). These functions are provided by the SAP General Ledger Migration service.

An extensive analysis of your initial situation and a detailed planning of the


implementation project are the most important success factors.

You must prepare and execute this project with the utmost care to ensure
accounting is still in order after the activation.

Solution

To ensure maximum security, SAP actively supports each project with a service.
It is available in the form of two further scenarios of the SAP General Ledger
Migration Service:
Scenario 7: Subsequent implementation of an additional ledger
Scenario 8: Subsequent switch from the accounts approach to the ledger approach
