Hi Filipe, ? What I understand from your small explanation of the issue, I can only suggest you to visit the FI Document Validation (OB28) and review the validation set for Document Global settings for line items and complete documents. I think there is no other areas which will affect you entry in this type. ? Regards, ARI
Thanks and Regards, ARINDAM

I think i was not clear when i mentioned the situation. I understand the differences caused by the "NewGL" effect. The difference however is that the "balance" in both views do not match. In the entry view it was set to zero, condition to the document to be posted to, but in the G/L view, it's different, 1800,00, for example. I analyzed and noted the some items have different posting keys in the different views. In one of the cases, item 179 has 40 in the entry view and 50 in the G/L's. Regards, Filipe

Posted by ARI (Sr. Consultant - SAP (Strategic Change Management)) on Oct 25 at 10:02 AM Mark as helpful Hi,
Take it easy. From ECC 6.0 SAP have included a feature which changed the way SAP FICO was Tackled earlier. They named it SAP "NewGL". Actually few features came with it as you may be aware like: 1. Document Splitting 2. Real time online reconciliation of CO?FI (and not FI?CO, which was available prior to ECC version or "mySAP ERP") 3. General Ledger based on Profit Center and Segments etc.
Instead of going to the features more, I will come directly to the issue on your post. In ECC, if you make an entry of say two GL accounts which will generate and additional line of tax accounts, and assign Business Area and Cost Center in the additional assignment.
When you will simulate the entry, the complete document view will show you that you have the additional assignments in the Two GL line items but not in the automatically generated tax accounts line items. Now you post the document. Go to FB03 and view the document. To your surprise you will see there is no display of additional assignments which You made during entry. This is because the document you are viewing now is taken from your General Ledger.
Here comes the role of ECC New GL, SAP has given 6 scenarios (Cost Centers, Profit Centers, Segments, Functional Areas, Business Areas and Orders). Depending on the need of the unit which is implementing SAP, they have to assign the scenarios To the general ledger (called leading ledger in ECC), say Profit Centers.
Now when you do the same entry, above in ECC, and simulate, two types of view can be seen. One is Entry view and the other is General ledger view. In entry view you can see the exact additional assignment you made along with the line item which is automatically Generated (here tax accounts), and when you go to the GL view of the entry, you can see the same assignment (profit centers), in The line items. Now when you post the doc and display thru FB03, then also, you can see the assignments, implying you GL have also been Maintained for the additional assignment object (profit center) also, so that you can make financial Statements on the basis of profit centers for internal reporting purpose.
Hope I could make some clarification if not all.
