Activate Open Item Management for a tax GL account

Hi experts
I have tried different options and explored forums but haven't been able to find the solution as yet.
I have some tax GL accounts (Tax Category field in their GL master is < or > i.e. Input or Output Tax Account). There have been postings to these accounts but these accounts are not open item managed. To perform clearing for these accounts, I need to activate OIM for which I'm trying FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP but the system gives me error"
"Not possible to determine tax indicator in company code xxxx
Company code xxxx is not considered for the activation"
When I further drilldown the error, i find the following information:
Diagnosis
Postings to the selected account require a tax code. On the basis of the company code data (T001), the system tried to determine a tax code for zero tax. However, there is no such tax code stored for the company code.
Procedure
Specify the tax code for zero tax in the company code. You do this in Customizing for Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) under Assign Tax Codes for Non-Taxable Transactions.
I have checked settings in OBCL for Non-Taxable Transactions and found that I0 and O0 are maintained for Input and Output tax (also tax jurisdiction). In Table T001 I also find these entries so these seem to be complete.
Can somebody please help me sorting out this issue.
Many thanks!

Hi,
Some G/L accounts cannot be managed on an open item basis,
specially G/L accounts that are used in account determination for
automatic transactions (ie: accounts set up as bank accounts, Tax
accounts, raw material accounts, reconciliation accounts, profit and
loss accounts).
It is the standard design of the FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP that there is no
conversion of a tax account to open item management.
Processes as the posting of the sales/purchases tax payable do not
process any clearing transactions therefore the open item management is
not necessary. Clearings must really never be posted to an input VAT or
output vat tax account, otherwise it would prevent subsequent processes
on the actual open items (Customer or vendor). The only tax account on
which the open item management should be possible is the G/L account of
the deferred tax.
Hope my information was helpful for you.
Regards,
Cristiano

Activate "Open Item Management" for account, line items posted previously

Hi SAP Gurus,
I am having a problem when do a clearing for GL account due to "open item management" check box in Txn FS00 is not activated and only "Line Item Display" is activated. For your info, there are line items already posted and now we want this GL as an "Open Item Management". We are using ECC 6.0.
I did referred to a previous posting in this Forums Activate "Open Item Management" for an Asset, line items posted previously but i received these errors when following the solution. The errors are like below:
*Account 0039091200 is a reconciliation account in company code 5000
*Company code 5000 is not considered for the activation
What does it means by these errors? How do i rectify this error?
Thanking you in advance.

Nazrul

Hi,
1. Executing report RFSEPA02 has a risk and also doubtful since it is not applicable in ECC 6.0 (New GL).
2. Create a New G/L with Open item management and transfer the balance to the newly created G/L.
Refer the earlier threads / replies else last option contact SAP (OSS).

Activate "Open Item Management" for an Asset, line items posted previously

Dear Experts,
In Asset there are line items already posted but it is not "Open Item Management" only "Line Item Display" is activated. Now we want this as "Open Item Management". We are using ECC 6.0.
Please help... how to go about it?
- Nilesh

Dear John Sir,
Thanks a lot for the explanation which was really helpful.
As per last discussion : "If asset clearing account XXXXXX had not been maintained as open item management and posted with a balance. It canu2019t be changed directly using FSS0 in G/L master because of non-zero balance on account XXXXXX."
Please can you explain the detail steps involved for your suggested solution i.e; The step SA38 > RFSEPA02 should be used to achieve this purpose.
We are usin ECC 6.0. so do we need to convert program "RFSEPA02" to "ZRFSEPA02".? And what are the repucations involved if we execute this solution, as SAP itself don't recommend this program to execute.
Please help.

You would have to purchase a second subscription since one subscription allows for only two active installations of which only one can be in use at a time.
As far as cost goes...

Activate open item management on G/L with existing line items

Hello all,
I have a G/L account with line items on it. I want to activate open item management now.
I can do that in several ways and have also managed to do it.
The EXISTING line items, however, do not have an open item status in the sense of "open" or "cleared". Instead, they show up with the green tick in front of the line. I would actually want the existing line items to be marked as "cleared" so they will disappear from the open item inquiry report.
I have found several SAP notes about this behaviour and know that SAP recommends to create a new account and then re-post. In this particular case, however, I have lots of reasons to keep the existing account.
My question is therefore if someone knows how to make the existing line items disappear from the open item inquiry. We are on SAP 4.6C and switching to ERP 6.0 so would be interested in both systems. By the way, I also found several info about FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP but this seems to be for the new G/L which we don't use.
Thanks in advance for any input.
René

I just saw this question now, if solution is still necessary you can read on
First: you can make an account open item only if the account has no balance. You mentioned there are postings on the account. If these postings make a zero balance all together (i. e. the debits and credits are equal):
1. change the master data
2. run program RFSEPA02 to change the existing items
3. clear the items
If the postings do not make zero, than you have to first make the account balance zero, carry out the above steps and reverse the posting mentioned previously.
The above works for 4.6x and ECC 6.0 systems as well.

Activation of open item management for loans taken.

Dear Experts,
How to activate opem item management for loans taken. Also how to link a vendor to business patner if both are same.

Hello,
In your case, though balance is ZERO, they are not cleared against each other. It is the reason you are still facing the problem.
If ther is no open item management check box, then copy program RFSEPA02 to ZRFSEPA02 and append the initialization control.
If there is already open item management but you want to remove then copy RFSEPA03 to ZRFSEPA03 and append the initialization control.
Do the following steps:
1. Block the account for postings (all check boxes) in FS00
2. Run the customized Z program (Give the company code and account number)
3. Unblock the account for postings (remove all check boxes) in FS00
Take help from your ABAPer to stopping the initilization error check.
Hope this solves your issue.

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,
Shashi Kanth

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

"Open Item Managed" for Bank GL accounts

I am trying to tell my users that they should set the bank GL accounts (not the bank clearing account) as "open item managed". Our users have been clearing the bank accounts down to make it exactly the same as the bank statement. All the SAP Helps and manuals suggest that bank accounts shouldn't be open item managed. But what is the implication? Is there any auidt issue?
Thanks

Hi
The main Bank Account is the GL Account that is used for all the accounting transaction by default including the payment transactions. Bank Sub Account is used as a clearing account for payment transaction to track the payments that are not yet cleared by the bank. It would not make sense to make the main Bank account Open Item managed from accounting perspective. This account will come into picture when actual clearing happens and gets confirmed from the Bank.
It may not be an Audit related perspective.

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.

Hi Simha,
You cannot use the original SAP program since it is not recommended by SAP (since it has lead to inconsistencies in the past).
However SAP allows you to copy the standard program and comment a few lines of code so that teh program works.
Plz refer to SAP note 175960 for exact details of modification in the code. We have used this in our project and it works fine.
Plz refer to the extract of SAP note below:
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 <<<<
