Hello,
I want to change the tab-stop-list for ledger-mode only, so I thougt
this way would be a good idea:
(add-hook 'ledger-mode-hook
(function (lambda ()
(setq tab-stop-list (quote (4 56)))
)))
It is but only partially, because after leaving ledger-mode this setting
is kept for all other modes as well.

"tab-stop-list" is a variable which does not automatically became
buffer-local. This means that normally you only define the global value.
Fortunately you can make it buffer-local for the current buffer with
function "make-local-variable", so this is likely what you want:
(add-hook 'ledger-mode-hook
'(lambda ()
(make-local-variable 'tab-stop-list)
(setq tab-stop-list '(4 56))))

Yes, it works well, thanks!

You can do it that way, though this is cleaner:
(set (make-local-variable 'tab-stop-list) '(4 56))
