This document provides guidance on implementing balance carry forward (BCF) and account reclassification functionality in SAP BPC 10.0 NW. It describes the key components needed, including dimensions, properties, business rule tables, logic, and data manager. BCF is used to carry closing balances from one period into the opening balances of the next period. Account reclassification transforms accounts, such as to calculate cash flows or realign data. The document provides step-by-step instructions on setting up and running these business rules.

Business Scenario:
Balance Carry Forward: The closing balance of one year will normally equal the
opening balance of the following year. Therefore, the first task for a new fiscal year
is to carry forward the balance from the previous year. In general, the purpose of
balance carry forward is to:
• Create opening balances in the new fiscal year
• Assign current year retained earnings to prior year retained earnings
• Roll up prior year values into new year opening balances if necessary
Account Reclassification: Account transformation rule enables us to reclassify the
data or records. This business rule is used to calculate cash flow and perform other
realignments of data. That is why this rule is also called account transformation. In
general the purpose of this rule in general to:
• Perform cash flow calculations
• Calculate annual net income and post it to retained earnings
• Book subsidiary finished goods into corporate work in process inventory
• Realign any other data or records as per the business requirements

Solution Building Blocks for BCF and Account
Reclassification:
• Data
• Model
• Dimensions
• Properties
• Business Rule Table
• Logic
• Data Manager
• Report
Model: Finance or Consolidation
(Standard model does not support business rules)
Dimensions: Following are the required dimensions
Dimension Name Dimension Type
ACCOUNT_BCF_AT A – Account
AUDIT_BCF_AT D – Audit
CATEGORY_BCF_AT C – Category
ENTITY_BCF_AT E – Entity
FLOW_BCF_AT S – Subtables
RPTCURR_BCF_AT R – Currency
TIME_BCF_AT T – Time
We also require a rate model with the following dimensions:
Dimension Name Dimension Type
ACCOUNT_EX_RATE A – Account
CATEGORY_BCF_AT C – Category
ENTITY_EX_RATE E – Entity
INPTCURR_EX_RATE R – Currency
TIME_BCF_AT T – Time
It is important to note that the Category and Time dimensions should be the same in both of
these models.

Supporting Properties: The properties are one of the most important
building blocks (for the BCF business rule). There is no required
property for the account reclassification business rule.
Supporting properties for the BCF are as follows:
Property ID Dimension to Which It Belongs
FLOW_TYPE S- Subtables
COPYOPENING D-Audit
OPENING_DATASRC D-Audit
DATASRC_TYPE D-Audit
CATEGORY_FOR_OPE C- Category
OPENING_YEAR C- Category
OPENING_PERIOD C- Category
FLOW_TYPE: This property identifies which FLOW member is
associated with the opening values and which one is associated with the
closing values. The relevant values for the property are: OPENING,
CLOSING and NONE.
COPYOPENING: This property is used to include or exclude an AUDIT
TRAIL member in the BCF process. The relevant values are: “Y” and “N”.
Y stands for YES and N stands for No.
OPENING_DATASRC: This property specifies the particular destination
DATA SOURCE (AUDIT TRAIL member) that the opening balances
should be written to. This property helps to map between opening and
closing data sources (or AUDIT TRAIL members). This property can take

any valid AUDIT TRAIL member ID. If left blank, the system will assume
that the source and destination AUDIT TRAIL members are the same.
DATASRC_TYPE: This property can take three values- “I” (Input), “M”
(Manual) and “A” (Automatic). The BCF process works only for those
AUDIT TRAIL members who have this property value flagged as I or M.
The consolidation process carries forward the automatic values by
default.
CATEGORY_FOR_OPE: This property specifies the CATEGORY from
which to copy the closing balances (to create the opening balances). If
left blank, the system will assume that the source and destination
categories are the same. This property is used when final closing
balances are not available at the opening period and an alternative
category (such as “ESTIMATE” for the “BUDGET”) is used for the
opening balances.
OPENING_PERIOD: This property specifies the YEAR from which to
copy the closing balances (to create the opening balances). This
property can take an absolute value such as 2011 or 2012 or an offset
value such as -2 or -1.The offset values are based on the offset from the
current year. If left blank the system assumes that the closing balances
are copied from the last year.
OPENING_PERIOD: This property specifies the PERIOD from which to
take the closing balances (to create the opening balances). This property
can take an absolute value such as FEBRUARY or MARCH or an offset
value such as -2 or -1.The offset values are based on the offset from the

Business Rule Table:
The business rule table controls the record selection process. The
record selection process is controlled by populating the source and
destination fields. Here we can select accounts that are to be moved, as
well as other dimension members associated with such accounts.
Business Rule Table for the Balance Carry Forward Process:
Source Account: This specifies the ACCOUNT member from which to
copy the closing balances (to create the opening balances). This could be
a base member, a parent member or a Dimlist property value.
Source Flow: This specifies the FLOW member from which to move the
closing balances (to create the opening balances). This could be a base
member, a parent member or a Dimlist property value.
Source Data Source: This specifies the AUDIT TRAIL member from
which to move the closing balances (to create the opening balances).
This could be a base member, a parent member, or a Dimlist property
value.

Destination Account: This specifies the ACCOUNT member where the
openings balances will be copied. This could be a base member or a
parent member. If left blank, the system will assume that the source and
destination account members are the same.
Destination Flow: This specifies the FLOW member where the
openings balances will be created. This could be a base member or a
parent member. If left blank, the system will assume that the source and
destination flow members are the same.
Destination Data Source: This specifies the AUDIT TRAIL member
where the openings balances will be copied. This could be a base
member or a parent member. If left blank, the system will assume that
the source and destination audit trail members are the same.
Reverse Sign: If checked, this will reverse the sign of the source value.
This is used when we have to reverse the opening balances for some
children who are selected automatically with a parent member. This
could also be used when the source and destination accounts have
different “Account Types”.
Data Source Type: This is to select the data source type to include “I”
(Input), “M” (Manual), or “A” (All).
Same Period: If checked, the closing balance period is the same as that
of the opening balance period. Otherwise the closing period will be the
last period of the prior year. The opening balance time is specified in the
data manager prompt.

Business Rule Table for the Account Reclassification Process:
We can create multiple rules with different ID names under the account
reclassification business rule. These rules then are then called by
different logic files though the process chain remains the same. The
following rule with ID “CF” has been created to calculate the cash flows.
Source Account: This specifies the ACCOUNT member from which to
move/copy the data or record. This could be a base member, a parent
member or a Dimlist property value.
Category: This specifies the CATEGORY member from which to
move/copy the data or record. This could be a base member, a parent
member or a Dimlist property value.
Source Flow: This specifies the FLOW member from which to
move/copy the data or record. This could be a base member, a parent
member or a Dimlist property value.
