Definition

This indicator determines whether the worklist is reconciled with the selected dataset.

Use

You only set this indicator when all of the following conditions apply:

  • If you execute more than once the program for determining the worklist of open items to be migrated
  • If the periods of the old fiscal year (prior to the migration date) are not yet closed
  • If you have performed clearing postings

When the indicator is set, the system reconciles the determined migration objects with the dataset of the worklist and lists any items contained in the worklist that are no longer relevant as migration objects as a result of clearing postings performed in the meantime in the old fiscal year. Using transaction FAGL_MIG_RESTORE_OP, you have to remove such items from the update to New General Ledger Accounting and from the worklist. If the items are not removed, they could cause differences to occur in the balance carryforward of the corresponding reconciliation account / account managed on an open item basis.

Note, however, that we strongly recommend closing the periods of the fiscal year for the migration before you generate the worklist. In this case, you do not have to set this indicator because the status of the open items (with regard to the migration date) can no longer be changed.

Do not set the indicator if you have locked the periods of the fiscal year before the migration against clearing postings. In this case, it is not necessary to reconcile the worklist with the selected dataset.

Dependencies

The reconciliation between the worklist and the selected dataset has a marked negative effect on program performance. For this reason, only set the indicator in exceptional circumstances.

Example

You have already generated the worklist of open items. The worklist contains open item A, which was open on the migration date. You have successfully performed the migration for the open items.

However, for closing operations, item A still has to be reconciled in the old fiscal year (before the migration date). Reconciliation is performed using item B in the old fiscal year.

If you were now to regenerate the worklist of open items for migration, neither item A nor item B would be relevant for the migration because both items are reconciled before the migration date. Furthermore, the opening balance of the account for item A has been determined incorrectly in the update of open items to New General Ledger Accounting because item A is contained in the balance, which is no longer justified.

When you set this indicator, the item is listed in the log of the program for generating the worklist of open items. Using the transaction for resetting migration objects (FAGL_MIG_RESTORE_OP), you can now remove this item from the update to New General Ledger Accounting as well as from the worklist.
