Hi
Please refer to below answers:
1) the OSS note 175960, mentions the afftected releases for software component SAP_APPL is till release 600. Currently we are at SAP_APPL 604 level 07. Is this note applicable to us?
Yes, it can be used.
2) Will the program ZFSEPA03 / RFSEPA03 converts the current open item line items to line item display?
The report does the following:
1. Sets a posting block to the GL account.
2. Selects all open items and deletes the XOPVW indicator in tables BSEG and BSIS
3. Deactivates the XOPVW flag in the GL account master data.
4. Deletes the posting block.
3) After executing this program, if suppose later any of the clearing document for the cleared items in the account got reversed. Will this items become open item again? if yes, then it won't be possible to clear these items as the gl won't be open item managed.
I am not sure about this step, but you will have (old) cleared items in the document tables (BSEG/BSAS) which does not match the current account settings (as these items are from the dateBEFORE the change took place). But this does not have any influence on postings in the daily business.
4) Any pre requisite like the gl account should have zero balance or there should not be any open items, before executing this program ZFSEPA03.
The subsequent deactivation of open item management is not that critical.
It is not necessary to bring the account balance to zero, you can execute ZFSEPA03 without any correction postings. And it is even not necessary to change the master data manually, this will be done by the program.
5) is there any other transaction similar to FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP for deactivating the open item managed tick in ECC 6.0 with NEW GL active.
You will do it by running the mentioned report.
The RFSEPA03 or your 'Z' version will not have any influence on the NewG/L tables likeFAGLFLEXA Only the currently open items will set to normal items.

Please tell me how can i solve the issue.

From ECC versions SAP has recommended that Do not use the report program to set up open item management for the
account.
Create a new account with the correct account assignment. Post your
items to the new account. If you want to use the original account
number, you must bring the account balance to zero, change the account
assignment, and repost the items. You can remove the old items by
archiving the documents.
better you write to service market place or take the view from exactly same thing faced any one.

Open item management of GL account

Hi all
I am trying to activate open item mangement indicator for my tax account for around 30 company codes. I could able to activate for all exept one company code and i am receiving the massage as
"You cannot change the open item management setting".
Any suggetions???
Thanks.

Hi,
I think that Gl has some postings into it and so it will not allow you to change the OI management status. You transfer all the balance fron that GL to Other Dummy GL and the Try to change the status. Even the if it is not allowing the execute the following
Open Item Management
If you are in an new GL environment, you cannot change it; a new account is required as you may have to abandon the old one.
Are you release 4.5 A or earlier? Then SAP supports the change program RFSEPA02/03 after you zero down the balance of the balance sheet account. Beyond 4.5A and untill New GL, you can change it but beware, SAP no longer supports RFSEPA02/03, since handling errors frequently occurred in the past causing data inconsistencies.
If you nevertheless want to use the reports, copy them to ZFSEPA02 or ZFSEPA03 and mark the following lines as comments:
INITIALIZATION.
CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_DISPLAY_TEXT'
EXPORTING
POPUP_TITLE = ' '
TEXT_OBJECT = 'RFSEPA02' ('RFSEPA03')
EXCEPTIONS
TEXT_NOT_FOUND = 1
OTHERS = 2.
LEAVE PROGRAM.
In addition, you must adjust the EPA00F00 include. Mark the following line as comment:
INCLUDE EPA00F00.
*>>>> START OF DELETION - NOTE 175960 <<<<
CHECK SY-REPID = 'RFSEPA02'. "<<<< INSERT - NOTE 0065877
*>>>> END OF DELETION - NOTE 175960 <<<<
Enhance the following line:
INCLUDE EPA00F00.
*>>>> START OF INSERTION - NOTE 175960 <<<<
CHECK SY-REPID = 'ZFSEPA02'. "<<<< INSERT - NOTE 0175960
*>>>> END OF INSERTION - NOTE 175960 <<<<
Please be aware that questions regarding the use of the reports will only be considered as SAP Consulting, since the account change is a correction to an incorrect account control

Open Item Management for GL Account

When I run transaction code FAGL_FC_VAL - Foreign Currency Valuation a certain GL account is not apprearing on the list generated by the report. The Open Item Management checkbox is selected for this GL account in the master file, whereas the other GL accounts that appear in the report this option is not selected.
Can someone explain if this could be the casue of the problem and why the selection of this checkbox "Open Item Management" will prevent it from appearing on the report .

Hi Niketa,
The reason you are not able to see those accounts is Foreign currency valuation covers the following accounts and items:
Foreign currency balance sheet accounts, that is, the G/L accounts that you run in foreign currency.
The balances of the G/L accounts that are not managed on an open item basis are valuated in foreign currency.
So the accounts that are managed on open item basis are not shown to you.

Shakeel

Yes, this is a precondition , if a particular posting needs to be made to non -leading leadger , then accounts should be managed as not open items .
In case if the accounts is managed as open items then posting happens to all the ledgers.

Exch rate diff account for open item management recently checked accounts

Hi all,
I have recently activated open item management for certain gl accounts.
i post only local currency transactions in that gl and gl account ,aster data is also in compnay code currency.
So no foreign currency is involved here.
But when i try to clear line items for those gl accounts , system is showing an error and asking me to maintain exchange rate diff accounts in OBA1 (KDF).
But i dodnot understand why i need to maintain foreign currency diff accounts when there is no foreign currency involved.
When i post any new entry after open item management is activated, system allows me to clear these line items without any error.
So i think the problem is only with line items where open item management activated recently,
Could any one help in this.
Thank you,
Siva Kumar D

Hi
May be this is because of the additional currencies define for that particular company code, if any difference in the exchange rate at the time of clearing system looks for the difference in ex.rate account. In this case, you have to maintain the GL in OBA1 (KDF)

How to activate open item management of rgl account

Hi GURU'S

how can i acivate the Open item management option for already existed GL accounts
please expalin me the steps
thanks
sunitha

Hi,
You can activate the OI mangement for GL accuonts through FS00 (GL Master Data). Have you made any transactions to those GL Accounts. If you wish to use the original account number, first you must make the account balance to zero , and then activate the OI check box
Or you can create a new account with the correct account assignment and transfer the balance fm the old account to the new account.
The GL will be open item managed only with effect from the date of activating the OI check box.
hope this helps

Change Open Item Management for GL accounts

Hi All,
Good Day.
I would like to asked if you have any idea on how to solve the error we encountered upon opening our open item management for our GL? The error is Line item total does not tally with account balance. Message no. FH099.
We have a Z* program customized from program RFSEPA02, we test it out in our QA and it was working fine. Even if the GLs has balance in QA.
But when we transfer it in Production, we encountered this kind of error.
Any idea how to solve it, i tried reading other questions on this forum with the same error, but i cant find any solution specific for this error.
Please help.
Thank you.

Hi,
See the Note 203329 - RFSEPA02 generates FH099 alth. balance = item total
Symptom
Report RFSEPA02 generates the error message FH099: 'Line item total does not tally with account balance' although the item total tallies with the balance and SAPF190 does not show any differences.
Additional key words
RFSEPA01, FIINCON
Cause and prerequisites
Open item management has already been activated once and items were cleared so that cleared items exist in the system for the account. These are not taken into account during the check of the item total with the account balance and cause the error message.
Solution
Reset the clearing transactions using Transaction FBRA.
Thanks & Regards,

Open item management for gl accounts

hi,
the business requirement is to manage all their accounts on open item basis , what is the impact of maintaining accounts not recommended to be managed on open item basis.
pls advice.
thanks

You can not manage recon account and PL a/c with OI management. The issue here is occupying the storage space and the system performance over a period of time since OI managed accounts will use more storage space than the line item manged. OI management is ideally suited for those accounts for which you set off the Dr and Cr items.

GL Account Change to Open Item Management

Hi,
Initially I have not created one account as open item management. After a period of time(after some transactions) I have made the balance Zero in that account and I have tried to create open item management for the account. But system is not accepting and error message is - Account balance is Zero but open items exists in the account.
BSR

Hello Dear,
From my $0.02, If you subsequently define open item management for a G/L account, this entry only applies to the items which are posted afterwards. At the date of the change, the account must display
a zero balance. Also, when canceling this indicator, the balance must be zero. You therefore have to clear the remaining open items before making the change in the master record.
FYI - Please make sure that only following accounts are required to be maintained as an Open Item management Accounts :
Cash discount clearing account
Clearing accounts
Bank clearing account
GR/IR clearing account
Salary/Payroll clearing account
Non Open Item Managed Accounts are as under:
Bank accounts
Tax accounts
Reconciliation accounts
Raw material accounts
Thanks
