  • SAP Tcode: GLGVTR - Flexible G/L: Balance carry forward
    
    Overview:
    The SAP transaction code GLGVTR is used to carry forward the balances of a flexible general ledger (G/L) account. This transaction code is used to transfer the balances of a G/L account from one fiscal year to the next. 
    
    Functionality: 
    GLGVTR allows users to carry forward the balances of a G/L account from one fiscal year to the next. This transaction code can be used to transfer the balances of a G/L account from one fiscal year to the next, and it can also be used to transfer the balances of a G/L account from one company code to another. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    To use GLGVTR, follow these steps 
    1. Log into SAP and enter transaction code GLGVTR. 
    2. Select the company code and fiscal year for which you want to carry forward the G/L account balances. 
    3. Enter the G/L account number for which you want to carry forward the balances. 
    4. Select the “Carry Forward” option and click “Execute”. 
    5. The system will display a list of all open items for that G/L account in that fiscal year. 
    6. Select the items you want to carry forward and click “Carry Forward”. 
    7. The system will display a confirmation message indicating that the selected items have been successfully carried forward. 
    
    Other Recommendations: 
    It is important to note that GLGVTR should only be used when transferring balances from one fiscal year to another or from one company code to another. It should not be used when transferring balances from one G/L account to another, as this could lead to incorrect results. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all open items are correctly carried forward before closing out a fiscal year, as this will ensure that all transactions are properly accounted for in the new fiscal year.
