The discrepancy of the balance in FS10N after performing a foreign currency valuation for a specific G/L account (such as 11001040) can be caused by various factors. Here are some possible reasons for the discrepancy: 1. Time of valuation and reporting period: Ensure that the reporting period in the FS10N display covers the period after the foreign currency valuation was performed. If the data has not been updated or the report has been created too early, you may still see the old balance. 2. Non-posted or incorrectly posted transactions: Check that all relevant postings have been entered correctly and completely. Sometimes transaction errors or accounting delays can lead to differences. 3. Currency conversion settings: Check the currency conversion settings you have used for foreign currency valuation. Different conversion rates or methods can lead to different results. 4. Double entries or reversals: Sometimes duplicate entries or subsequently reversed/adjusted entries can affect balances. Check the posting details for the account to make sure everything has been entered correctly. 5. Reconciliation error: There could be a reconciliation error, especially if multiple people are accessing the accounting data and making changes. A check and reconciliation with the team could be helpful here. 6. SAP system settings: Check if there are specific SAP system settings that could affect the balance. These include the configuration of the accounting principles, settings in New GL, special ledger settings, etc. To resolve the problem, it is advisable to check the transactions of the account in question in detail and compare them with the posting documents. It also makes sense to check the configuration of the foreign currency valuation and adjust it if necessary. If the problem persists, it may be helpful to consult an SAP FI consultant or the support team to carry out more specific investigations.
