Definition

You can define different account symbols in table TRAC_ACCSYMB_INI (using transaction SE16, for example). The table is only read when OTC transactions are initialized. The account symbols found using the posting specifications are replaced by the account symbols you have defined here, providing the posting date comes before, or is the same as the initialization date.

You can use this table in particular to reduce to a minimum the work required in reconciling accounts in FI after OTC transactions have been initialized in P/L and bank accounts.

Additional Note:

Security and loan transactions are not initialized using different account symbols. Different update types are used to build the opening balances. The special logic is necessary for OTC transactions because the system does not work with opening positions here. Instead, all the transactions that exist in the valuation areas to be initialized are transferred. The posting date for business transactions prior to the initialization date is changed to the initialization date.
