Financial Statement Versions means a hierarchical positioning of G/L accounts and this
positioning can be based on specific legal requirements for creating financial statements.
We can create number of financial statement versions for the chart of accounts, one for
the local reporting, and one for parent reporting. In each version we can group the GL
codes differently as required for the reporting purpose. We define FSV because we need
to represent our balance sheet and profit and loss account in a particular manner.
We can define versions for a specific chart of accounts, for a group chart of accounts, or
without any specific assignment.
We then determine the financial statement items for the version which we have created
for our company code.
We assign groups of accounts to the items at the lowest levels of the hierarchy. We can
select the criteria that determine which items the accounts are displayed in. For example,
accounts or groups of accounts can be assigned to particular items based on their
balance.
Other way, We can also assign functional area intervals at the lowest level of the
structure, instead of account intervals. Either account intervals or functional area
intervals can be assigned to a financial statement item. We must explicitly define
financial statement versions to which functional areas are assigned as such. We do this by
setting the Fun. area allowed indicator. This financial statement version can then also
be used by the notes to financial statement in the G/L account information system.

Under Cash & Cash Equivalents create further nodes 11000 Petty cash and 11100 Bank

the
cursor
on
the
node
Here assuming that if this bank account is an overdraft account i.e. Bank balance can
become a debit or credit balance. In case bank balance becomes credit i.e. negative then
it should be regrouped to the liabilities side of balance sheet under current liabilities.
We will similarly create the various nodes under liabilities which appear as shown below:-
Now to regroup the balance from Bank Current assets node to the current liabilities
node we proceed as follows:-
Position
the
cursor
on

Similarly, We need to create various node under Income statement and assign GL account
codes to each of the lowest level node.
Finally after assigning GL code to each node, we need check the non assignment of GL
codes to our company code.
Proceed as follows:Click

on
This step will give We list of accounts not assigned to the various nodes
After assigning the non assigned GL codes to various nodes The FSV is ready to be used
by company code 1100.
