Definition

Use

If you set this indicator, the ECS balance and the FI GL balance are calculated and saved for the company codes and accounts you selected. The system also determines which FI items are still open and that lead to the difference in the balances, and saves these items.

Caution: For other accounts, if there are any ECS/GL balance differences and items that caused the difference in these balances, this data is lost. This is because tables GLE_ECS_BAL and GLE_ECS_BAL_ITEM are emptied before the data is updated.

Dependencies

Note: The calculation of balances and balance difference items can require a very long runtime.

Example

An ECS balance of USD 100 and a GL balance of USD 113 are calculated for suspense account 123. The difference in the balances is caused by an item with the value USD 13. This item was posted directly in FI (and not in ECS) to the suspense account.
