Purpose
You use this program to create entries in the line item tables andtotals tables in New General Ledger Accounting for the open items to betransferred during migration. At the same time, the balance in period 0is calculated for the reconciliation accounts in New General LedgerAccounting for the migration year.

Integration

• Complete Customizing of New General Ledger Accounting

The program transfers the open items on the basis of the Customizingsettings made for New General Ledger Accounting. Consequently, thedefinition of the general ledger structure for the ledgers to be updatedmust be complete.

• Correct Customizing for Migration


• Worklists created for the open items to be transferred

Using the programs for worklist creation,you have created a worklist containing all open items in the previousfiscal year. From this worklist, the program selects the open items tobe processed. The status of each individual line item is also written tothe worklist. You can call status administration by choosingAnalyze Migration Status.

• For migration plans with document splitting, you have made account
assignments for the open items and generatedthe document splitting information.
The corresponding items must be in the worklist for migration documentsand must have status '10' (without errors).

Selection
The items are selected from the worklist of open items to betransferred.


• In the Migration Plan field, enter the plan containing the items
you want to process.

• In the Other Selections area, you can select the open items of
individual documents or ranges of documents from the worklist of thespecified migration plan.

• Under Processing Parameters, you can choose between update run
and test run. We recommend first performing the program in the test runso that you can resolve any errors before processing.
When you execute the program in an update run, the tables in New GeneralLedger Accounting as well as the status administration in the worklistare transferred (see Analyze MigrationStatus).

• Under Output Control, you can select the type of output:

Display Overview Only:
The system displays the number of items processed with errors, thenumber that were successfully updated but with messages, and the numberthat were updated correctly.
Overview + Incomplete Objs:
Besides the overview of processed items, the system issues a list of allitems for which messages were issued.
Overview + All Objects:
Besides the overview of processed items, the system issues a list of allitems.

• Under Parallel Processing, you can make the setting for executing
the program using parallel processing. It is only required to make allsettings in this area if you want to use the program for mass processingand parallel processing.
In the Package Size field, specify how many documents should beprocessed in a single process. If you specify a package size of 1000,the system always processes 1000 documents in a process.
If you want to use specific application servers for processing, specifya server group. Making an entry here is optional. If you donot make an entry, all application servers that are currentlyavailable in the current SAP system are used as a server group.
Specify the maximum number of processes to be run in parallel. If youleave this field empty, the program is not performed in parallel.
Notes on system performance:
To improve system performance, you can reduce the package size. Thisdistributes more effectively how the available processes are utilized.Note, however, that this increases workload on the network
Furthermore, you can execute the program in multiple jobs, or by companycode / fiscal year, or by a combination of both.

Activities

Determination of Items To Be Processed
From the worklist of open items to be migrated, the program determinesall items that can be transferred to New General Ledger Accounting.
For migration plans without document splitting, the following statusesapply:


• Status 00: Items with this status have not yet been
processed.

• Status 01: Items with this status have been processed with errors
.
The following status is available for migration plans using documentsplitting:

• Status 10: Items with this status have already been successfully
processed in an update run in the previousactivity. Entries have been generated in the document splittingtables.
Items that have already been transferred to New General LedgerAccounting without errors (status XX), are not selectedagain for processing.
For a deeper analysis of the processing status, perform the activityAnalyze Migration Status.

Transferring General Ledger Tables and Generating Balance Carryforward
For the items to be processed, the program uses the data from theoriginal line item and any document splitting information to generategeneral ledger line items and totals records The data is always writtento all ledgers that are assigned to the company code in the migrationplan.
Furthermore, each item that is successfully transferred is added to thebalance for period 0 of the relevant reconciliation account. Thisbalance is only created in the migration year, that is, as the openingbalance of the fiscal year from which New General Ledger Accounting isimplemented. This is independent of whether the items are transferredfrom the fiscal year directly preceding the migration date or fromfiscal years from earlier years. It is not necessary to perform arollup of the balance from the fiscal years before the migration.

Logging the Processing Status
In the worklist of the open items to be migrated, each item that issuccessfully processed receives the processing status XX
(Completely Processed). Items for which the general ledger entriescannot be successfully transferred receive the processing status 01 (in the case of migration plans without documentsplitting) or retain the processing status 10 (in the case ofmigration plans with document splitting) and are logged in theworklist with the error message issued.
