7/26/2019 Can You Have Two Secondary Ledgers at Subledger Level With Different Chart of Accounts or Calendar

1/1

Hi All,

this post is regarding an issue I have faced in Secondary Ledger ...not sure if anyone else faced the same or not, howe

We all know there is a new type of ledger that is availale in !elease "# which is Secondary ledger. $f the many uses provide Multiple Accounting Representation. It means that a single transaction that is recorded in primary ledger for

ledger under a different accounting dimension say cash accounting method.

I had a usiness re%uirement to create a secondary ledger with conversion level as Suledger and the calendar & charttried to test this out, which worked well as e'pected ... ut somehow I did not want to stop there ... I was e'ploring furth

(ow let)s assume this scenario....

"* +SA Ledger is the rimary Ledger which operates in -ash asis of Accounting with calendar as /an to 0ec,#* I(0IA Ledger is the Secondary Ledger which is created with Accrual asis of Accounting with calendar as Apr to 1aconversion level as Suledger.

2he re%uirement is that now +SA Ledger 3rimary Ledger* wants another accounting representation for I4!S re%uiremcustom accounting method and conversion is at Suledger Level with a different -hart of accounts and calendar as /a

Can this be achieved..?

2he answer is....

If the create accounting program needs to create accounting entries for the secondary ledger, you have to assign secoSet at the responsiility level for all Suledgers, else create accounting would end in error or warning stating that it doesecondary ledger.(ow for the e'isting scenario ... the Suledgers like payales, receivales etc. would already have the value 56I(0IA LSet, to have the create accounting entries generated for the secondary ledger.

(ow the re%uirement is to create a new secondary ledger called I4!S ledger with a different chart of accounts, calendausing accounting setup manager, as the system would not prevent you from doing so..After creating the aove secondary ledger and completing all necessary ledger options etc. 2ry to test a transaction, yo2he error is ecause the profile option SLA: Additional Data Access Set cannot point to two secondary ledgers at the

create a 0ata Access Set which would include India Ledger and I4!S Ledger, so that we can assign the 0ata Access possile when the -hart of accounts and -alendar are different etween these two secondary ledgers.2he system re%uirement is that ledgers should share the -hart of Accounts, -alendar and eriod 2ype so that they caSince the profile option SLA: Additional Data Access Set cannot point to two different secondary ledgers and also waccess set, we cannot achieve the re%uirement mentioned y the usiness...

2o understand more of this scenario, create two secondary ledgers oth at suledger conversion level with different catransaction in the primary ledger for payales and perform accounting program, you would encounter the aove ...
