Has anyone changed FCG with balances before? we do not want to create new customers. Open balances includes invoices/unallocated cash/part paid invoices.

thanks for any assistance.

Hi,

Provided that the new group control accounts are the same, you can change it thru ttaad4100 with minor damages. But if new group control accounts are different you will have problems that will show up in Print Control Account Checklist.

Hope this will help your decision.

yes the new FCG control account will be different, one way I thought is to use table maintenance and change all references to the old control account in gld106(I know very time consuming activity!) and any reference to the old FCG in any other table.


Then do a Ledger account/opening balance rebuild.

The latter proposal will not do - there are references to ledger acounts also in other tables, and there is more than one group control account.

Furthermore, changing tfgld106 in the way propoesed is likely to be illegal in most countries: You may never ever change a journalized entry, that's why it's journalized.

One option is to close the balances using a single entry debit / credit for each supplier of the fsg U want to change. After changing the FSG U can enter the invoices/advances again to restore the balances.

Hope it helps
