Year End Simulation
Use this function to calculate and display the year-end simulation of a period N-1 on a period N. Carry-forward amounts are posted to period N during the fiscal year-end closing process. The year-end simulation for general analytical balances and pre-consolidated balances is carried out by legal company.
Updating carry-forward amounts for pre-consolidation balances follows the same process used for general and analytical balances.
Pre-consolidated Balance information.
The following journal entries never create or modified carry-forwards records in the pre-consolidated balance:
Fiscal year journal entries created using the Fiscal year-end function (FIYEND)
Fiscal year journal entries created manually in the Journal entry function (GESGAS)
The Flow on carry-forwards records is initialized by the CSLFRWFLO – Carry-forward flow parameter (CPT chapter, CSL group) even if the account is set with flow management Not entered. If there is no flow code defined for this parameter, carry-forward records are created without any flow.
For carry-forward records, the partner is calculated from the Balance N-1, except for the P&L account where the partner is never defined (see below).
For an analytical ledger, the analytical carry-forward records are created with a Dimension ID different from 0, and they are initialized with the dimensions values that have the Carry forward check box selected in the Dimensions function (GESCCE).
When the ledger has a carry-forward balance, the P&L amount is set on the P&L account defined on the Miscellaneous tab of the Chart of account line 11. Carry-forward records created on this P&L account do not have any dimension value and this account does not have a partner defined.
If the Carry-forward in currency check box is selected on the account setup in the Accounts function (GESGAC), it is not taken into account.
For any balance type, you cannot run a simulation carry-forward for a closed fiscal year.

|
Select the type of ledger for the simulation. |
Criteria
|
Select this check box to run a simulation on all companies in a single legislation. If you select All companies, the Legislation field is required. |
|
Enter a company to run the simulation on a single company. The Legislation field automatically displays the legislation for that company.
|
|
Enter the legislation if you selected All companies. For a single company, this field displays the legislation for that company.
|
|
Enter an open fiscal year for the simulation. You cannot run the simulation on a closed fiscal year. |

Selection
|
Select this check box to simulate carry-forward entries for general balances. |
|
Select this check box to simulation carry-forward entries for analytical balances. |
|
Select this check box to simulate carry-forward entries for pre-consolidated balances. This check box is only available for ledgers with consolidation management.
