2490222 - Additional Explanation to SAP Note 2220152: Alternative Fiscal Year


Variant / Parallel Valuation / Period Determination / Reporting
Component: FI-AA (Financial Accounting > Asset Accounting), Version: 7, Released On: 17.10.2024

Symptom
To be able to portray the data of an alternative fiscal year variant in your system you have assigned your parallel valuation
(accounting principle) two ledgers, a representative ledger which has assigned the fiscal year variant of the leading valuation
(=leading ledger) and a non-representative ledger which has assigned an alternative fiscal year variant.
Additional explanation is required regarding the customizing and the assignment of an alternative fiscal year variant
to the non-representative ledger for a parallel valuation as outlined in SAP Note 2220152 - Ledger approach and Asset
Accounting (new): Alternative fiscal year variant for parallel valuation.
The asset values including depreciation is not displayed in the Asset Explorer (transaction AW01N) from
the alternative fiscal year variant of the non-representative ledger for a parallel valuation (and according to the
accounting principle assigned in the relevant depreciation area).
Instead it is the fiscal year variant (FYV) of the representative ledger of the parallel valuation that is represented in the
planned depreciation periods as seen in the Asset Explorer. This is correct, but often thought to be a mistake or a system
error.
An expectation and perception is that the depreciation area assigned to a parallel accounting principle and with a non-
fiscal year variant should be reflected with the posting periods of the alternative FYV: this is not the case in the Asset
Explorer and in FI-AA Reporting.

Reproducing the Issue


1. Follow and complete the customizing of your parallel valuation with non-fiscal year variant assignment as outlined in
SAP Note 2220152.
2. In the Asset Explorer (Transaction AW01N) and any FI-AA Reporting: review the Periods for Planned/Posted
Depreciation for the Depreciation Area which has assigned the Accounting Principle with the alternative fiscal year
variant.

Cause
All the above symptoms are not errors instead it is expected system behavior in a system with SFIN Add-On, S/4HANA and
Asset Accounting (New). It is in accordance with the required customizing as outlined in SAP Note 2220152.
It is important to be clear about what it says at the start of the Solution in SAP Note 2220152:
***************
"You want to implement the Simple Finance add-on or migrate to S/4HANA and thus activate Asset Accounting (new) as well.
Then, so that you can continue to work in the general ledger with alternative FYVs, you must perform the following steps
before you install the SAP Simple Finance add-on:
An additional, absolutely necessary (non-leading) ledger must be introduced. In addition, this new ledger must be managed
in a new ledger group together with your existing ledger that maps the parallel valuation. In addition, in the new ledger group,
the new ledger must assume the role of the representative ledger. However, note that the restrictions listed in SAP
Note 844029 are still valid."
***************
In order to be able to assign an alternative fiscal year variant (field PERIV) beside the fiscal year variant assigned to the
leading ledger we need to create and assign an additional non-representative ledger to the ledger group. Here we can assign
the alternative fiscal year variant.
Yet it is important to be aware, that still, the representative ledger in this ledger group must have assigned a
fiscal year variant with the same start and end date as the fiscal year variant of the leading ledger.
Resolution
In the ATTACHMENT KBA 2490222_Example SAP Note 2220152.pdf you find the following topics documented:
1. What needs to be considered before starting the customizing; this is to ensure that you are aware how you might need to
customize your system in order to meet your business requirements.
2. An Example of how this looks in Customizing Transaction SPRO -> IMG in a SFIN and S/4HANA system.
3. What Display in the Asset Explorer (Transaction AW01N) and also in the FI Document (Transaction FB03) can be
expected and what is standard system behavior.
4. What G/L Report might be useful for Reporting and value evaluation for the non-representative Ledger in the respective
Ledger Group/Accounting Principle.
