VIEW_TRAC_ACCSYMB - Define Account Symbols

General Material Data   BAL Application Log Documentation  
This documentation is copyright by SAP AG.

Define account symbols with posting categories that determine the type of posting and the posting currency (semantics of the account symbol).

In this step, you can display or change existing account symbols or define new account symbols.

The following account symbols are preconfigured:

Preconfigured Account Symbols

1. Choose New Entries.
2. Enter an ID for the account symbol and a descriptive text.
3. Assign a posting category. The posting category determines the type of posting and the posting currency (semantics of the account symbol). Currently, the system uses the posting category solely to check the currency. When an update type is posted to an account symbol, the system reads the posting category for the account symbol. Based on the posting category, it then searches the flow details for the amount in the corresponding currency and makes the posting. If the required details are not available for the flow (for example, the amount in payment currency is missing), the flow is not posted and an error message is issued. The following posting categories are available:

• 1 Position posting (book value) in position currency

• 2 Subledger posting in payment currency

• 3 Bank posting in payment currency

• 4 Profit-related posting in position currency

• 5 Profit-related posting in payment currency

• 6 Other G/L posting in position currency

• 7 Other G/L posting in payment currency

• 10 Currency swap between position currency/payment currency

1. Save your entries.

Note

Create one account symbol with the posting category Currency Swap. This account symbol does not appear in any posting specifications but is used for currency swap postings.
