General Ledger in SAP ERP 6.0 Benefi ts (4)
Parallel Accounting
The New General Ledger supports Parallel Accounting by using either parallel
accounts
or parallel ledgers.
In New GL, both approaches are cons idered equally powerful.The choice will depend on the specific customer situation.
The parallel accounts approach in the New GL is as powerful as in classic GL in
R/3.
The parallel ledgers approach in the New GL is much betterthanthe SAP R/3 approach of using classic GL plus the special ledger application.

Parallel Accounting The Leading Ledger
In GL, one ledger is assigned the role of the leading ledger. Group valuation is
usually mapped in this ledger.
All company codes are automatically assigned to the leading ledger (cannot be
deactivated).
If parallel reporting is done by parallel accounts, then there is exactly one ledger in
the New GL, the leading ledger.
For parallel reporting via parallel ledgers, the customer can add additional ledgers
to the New GL per company code.
The leading area of asset accounting (area 01) is posted to the leading ledger.
Controlling is i ntegrated to the leading ledger.

Alldocuments where no single document transfer takes place where cumulated before the transfer. The solutionpresumes the same customizing setting in all involved systems which is checked before the transfer takesplace.

Upgrade Customers
The classic G/L is st il l available in SAP ERP 6.0.
