SAP Note 844029 - Inconsistent fiscal year variant with ledgers in the NewGL

Summary :
When using NewGL for ledger solutions with parallel valuation methods, inconsistencies can arise if different fiscal year variants are employed across valuation bases (e.g., HGB and IAS). In Asset Accounting, limits exist regarding the assignment of differing fiscal year variants to depreciation areas, triggering AC 531 error if violated. However, assigning inconsistent fiscal year variants to a ledger group within a valuation area is permissible and functional. This setup, demonstrated with specific ledger and valuation area configurations, requires careful management to address challenges related to depreciation posting, transaction reversals, and asset history maintenance due to variant discrepancies.
