I have a couple of questions about this approach. I just want to make sure that I use it correctly. I am using one of the SAP standard delivered COA as a basis. This chart of accounts exists in each of my client environments (2 development environments; 3 QA environments, and will exist in the production environment). I am make several changes to the chart of accounts (changing setting on existing accounts, add new accounts, blocking existing accounts).
The first question, is can I use FS15 and FS16 to update each client? The second question relates to what processing is done. When I execute FS15 for the source development client, and then execute FS16 (once for each target client) to apply the COA, does it replace the contents of tables SKA1 and the contents of SKB1 for each company code? Does it just update/replace the contents of table SKB1? I am just trying to understand what is taking place.
Thank you in advance or your reponse. I will mark two of your previous response to the initial thread as helpful.

OK. In my opinion it is best to do it this way. It keeps all systems in line. If you do not create them in DEV and transport then you will find that the 3 boxes get out of whack and at some stage it will pose problems in configuration and testing of new functionality because the accounts you need will not be there in DEV or QAS and will have to be created at that later stage. If everything is the same in all three boxes it makes life so much easier.
I had a client a couple of years ago where the users were creating new GL accounts only in PRD and we had exactly the problem I mentioned above. I had to spend a day comparing the three systems and aligning them and it was a pain. In that case I actually compared the tables and then fixed those in DEV and transported the tables to QAS which solved the problem but it is a risky procedure and only for very experienced consultants.
