Activating General Ledger Accounting
To make the settings and use the functions in General Ledger Accounting, you have to activate it. To do this, in Customizing choose Financial Accounting → Financial Accounting Global Settings → Activate New General Ledger Accounting. (or T Code FAGL_ACTIVATION)
(This is already done in our sandbox)
Activating General Ledger Accounting has the following effects:
● The Customizing settings for General Ledger Accounting appear in the SAP Reference IMG. You access the settings under Financial Accounting (New) → Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) and General Ledger Accounting (New).
● The General Ledger Accounting functions appear in the SAP Easy Access menu under Accounting → Financial Accounting → General Ledger. (Now it is hided in Sandbox)
● The tables for new General Ledger Accounting are activated and updated.
FAGLFLEXT - Totals Data Table
FAGLFFLEXP - Plan Line data Table
FAGLFEXA - Actual Line data table
FAGL_SPLINFO_FAGL_SPLINFO_VAL - Splitting data table

In the standard system, the tables from classic General Ledger Accounting (GLT0) are updated as well as the tables in new General Ledger Accounting during the activation. This enables you to perform a ledger comparison during the implementation of new General Ledger Accounting to ensure that your new General Ledger Accounting has the correct settings and is working correctly. To compare ledgers, in Customizing choose Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) → Tools → Compare Ledgers.
Deactivating the updatation of tables for classic General Ledger Accounting Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) → Tools → Deactivate Update of Classic General Ledger.

Important Notes:
We can use several ledgers in parallel This allows you to produce financial statements according to different accounting
principles, for example. You must designate one ledger as the leading ledger. Leading Ledger: The leading ledger is based on the same accounting principle as
that of the consolidated financial statements. If you use the account approach for parallel accounting, you post all data to the leading ledger.
This leading ledger is integrated with all subsidiary ledgers and is updated in all company codes. This means that it is automatically assigned to all company codes.
In each company code, the leading ledger receives exactly the same settings that apply to that company code: the currencies, the fiscal year variant, and the variant of the posting periods. You can define a second and third parallel currency for your leading ledger for each company code. In Customizing for Financial Accounting (New), choose Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) → Ledgers → Ledgers → Define Currencies of Leading Ledger.

In the above path you specify for which characteristics you want to perform document splitting in General Ledger Accounting. You can define the following:
• Whether you want to apply a zero balance setting for the characteristic
• Whether you want to use a partner field to document a sender/receiver relationship in the clearing lines generated additionally in the document
• Whether you want the characteristic to be a required entry field (whereby the system only accepts postings when this field can be filled with a value from the document splitting).
