  • Automatic Clearing & Electronic Bank Statement

    Hi,
    During EBS processing, open items are automatically being cleared but only based on amounts. I've configure in OB74 that criteria for clearing should be amount & value date.  It seems that EBS does not read the settings in OB74? Where is the correct path to set this up?
    Does EBS really allows upload of bank statement even if ending and beginning balance are not equal? Is there a way to control this?
    Thanks,
    Chaikaru

    Hi Chaikaru,
    OB74 is not the path for EBP processing. OB74 is used for account clearing in F.13 or F13E.
    You need to go to the path:-
    SPRO > Financial Accounting (New) > Bank Accounting > Business Transactions > Payment Transactions > Electronic Bank Statement
    You need to define interpretation algoritham. Please go through the below one:-

  • GL account automatically cleared by the bank statemetn document

    Hello all,
    I would like to ask you a question.
    We have done the payments by payment run to the vendor , FI document 2000008482  has been created, Then we received the bank statement which created the document 101481822 and the GL account used for this payment  2435000022 was automatically cleared by this bank statement documents 101481822
    Usually they do manual clearing by f-03 but for the accoutn 2435000022  its automatic
    I have 2 questions
    1. where in customizing you set up this option that the GL account is automatically cleared when posting bank statement
    2. if they need to reverse payment document, how this could be possible? as if they want to reset the clearing docuemtn, they would have to reverse the bank statement document
    thanks for your feedback, its reallt apprecited
    regards
    Hana

    You should feel happy if the system clears the payment document. This what the behavious is expected.
    When you made the payment it goes to bank sub account, then when you upload the bank statement, then the system expects to clear based on the cheque number etc.
    However, if you do not want you can still stop them from clearing and then entry only gets posted. But again, you will be doing the same job what the system is doing by using F-03 or F.13
    Please check your posting type against the posting rule

  • Automatic clearing in electronic banking

    Hi all,
    I'm working with the electronic banking program to import statements and want to clear items from sub ledger accounts automatically.
    From the tests I have done so far, it seems that SAP always tries to locate the business partner via the bank details FIRST. In other words:
    IF business partner bank details are provided in the electronic bank statement
    THEN SAP takes this as leading in order to determine the business partner
    I do not want SAP to start the search via the bank account details. I have been using interpretation algorithm 020 (doc.number) and 031 (doc.number and customer from document) but still SAP always starts searching for the business partner based on the bank details.
    My test case is as follows:
    - I have a customer A without bank details maintained
    - I have a vendor B with bank details maintained
    - Customer A is in fact the SAME business parter as vendor B although they are not linked in their master data
    Now Customer A makes a payment to me and the bank provides the bank details of the customer AS WELL AS the invoice number. SAP then starts matching and finds vendor B because the customer bank details are maintained in the vendor master. Clearing from the vendor does -of course- not take place because the invoice exists on the customer, not the vendor. So a payment advice is created which holds the vendor account AND the invoice number.
    I cannot get SAP to avoid finding the vendor, and instead, find the customer with help of the document number that is also in the bank statement file.
    Hope the case is clear, any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

    Hi Jay,
    Open items for G/L Accounts, Vendors and Customers can be cleared automatically by running the Clearing Program
    Set up predefined criteria for automatic clearing (Configuration)
    Program groups those items from an account that have the same
    u2022 Trading Partner ID
    u2022 Reconciliation Number
    u2022 Currency in which the General Ledger is updated
    u2022 Four freely definable criteria
    The program groups together items from an account that have the same reconciliation account number, currency, and Special G/L indicator, as well as pre-defined criteria from the document header or item such as the allocation field, reference number and amount.
    If the balance, in local currency, of the items within a group is zero, the system automatically clears them and creates clearing documents.
    Prerequisites for using the automatic clearing program:
    u2022 Accounts must be managed on an open item basis.
    u2022 Accounts to be cleared must be defined in customizing.
    The automatic payment program does not clear noted items, statistical posting, down payments, bills of exchange and items with withholding tax entries.
    When clearing open items in a foreign currency, differences may occur due to fluctuations in exchange rates. The system automatically posts these differences as realized gains or losses.
    Config: IMG>FA>GL. Accounting>Business  transactions>Open item clearing>Prepare automatic clearing.
    AS well see the notes for better understanding.
    Hope it gives better understanding.

    Vyas

  • Automatic clearing in Electronic Bank Reconciliation

    Hi All,
    I have a scenario here where my client is using an Electronic Bank Statement to do bank reconciliation. The format used is MultiCash. Our setting for Bank GL account are using one Uncleared account - all payment or transfer will be posted here, and one cleared account - after bank reconciliation has been done, it will clear the line item in Uncleared account and post it in Cleared Account.
    And one of the conifg we do for bank reconciliation is to automatically clear the Payment Document in Uncleared Account and post it to Cleared Account by searching and matching the Document number. So in the bank statement files given by the bank (DB), it will provide the document number in "Note to payees"
    But we have a problem here with few market in Korea and Taiwan. They have limits for every transaction. For example, for Taiwan, each transaction is limit to TWD 20,000,000 only. Thus, if I got a payment paid out to vendor amounted 61,000,000 TWD, when the payment order is sent to the DB bank, the bank will automatically split it into 4 different payments transactions. Three transaction with amount TWD 20,000,000 and one transaction with amount 1,000,000.
    So when the bank provide us with the bank statement file, the system will fail to do the clearing as its impossible to clear 20,000,000 TWD with the payment document TWD 61,000,000 in SAP. Currently they are using FEBAN to manually post partially and clear it off.
    So my question will be, is it possible for SAP to detect all this 4 documents (20,000,000, 20,000,000, 20,000,000, 1,000,000) and clear it off with my payment document in the Uncleared Account amounted 61,000,000? The bank provided same SAP document number in every transaction for the Notes to payee field.
    Please advice. Thanks.

    Please check the algorithm you have mentioned against the posting rule for the transaction that is not getting cleared.  Please use the criteria (like document number or cheque number or bank key etc.) in the reference field in the posting transaction to help the system to find out the matching item from the uncleared items for enabling to clear it off automatically.
    Regards

  • Electronic Bank Statement - automatic clearing via Assignment number

    Dear all,
    when posting our outgoing cheques, the cheque number is copied to the assignment field (via an automatic job). Our cheque numbers have 6 digits.
    When we are getting in the bank statement file  the cheque number is populated in the 'Note to payee' (same number in "Reference" field), but instead of 6 digits, the bank adds additional 6 digits / zeros infront of the cheque number. Meaning that instead of 005217 we get 000000005217.
    We want to use the automatic clearing with the link between 'Note to payee' and 'Assignment field'.
    The following settings were done in the system:
    1. Posting rules: "4 Clear debit G/L acct"
    2. Search string definition:
    1. 0 > ' ', 2. 0 > ' ', 3. 0 > ' ', 4. 0 > ' ', 5. 0 > ' ', 6. 0 > ' ', 7. # > #, 8. # > #, 9. # > #, 10. # > #, 11. # > #, 12. # > #
    3. Search string use:
    - Algorithm 015: Clearing Transaction: Selection Using Assignment
    - Target field: Payment Notes
    With those settings the system does not find the items to clear.
    Does anybody know what is missing?
    Thanks!

    We have uploaded MT940 file through /nff.5 .
    The posting which has happened after MT940 was uploaded is
    Dr  Main bank account ( 190220)  500 INR
    Cr. Bank Sub Control Account (190228)  500 INR
    The entry which is their is sub control bank account posted on

    Cr. Customer Account                               500 INR
    Their is no other posting also with 500 in sub control account
    But these are not cleared automatically & reflecting in FEBA as to be posted.
    Now out 100 trnsaction the success rate of automatic clearing is 30%.
    What could be the reason?  Is it to do with date etc.
    I undertand that clearing against ( two document ) is against some criteria.
    then what those criteria are.

  • Is there a way to automatically clear GLs against a lump sum bank statement

    Good day, everyone.
    I would like to ask if  there is anyone aware of a a process that can help resolve the following.
    Currently, whenever we execute an EFT payment run through f110, SAP knows to credit the relevant GL account. If, for example, there are 20 vendors in the run, SAP will post to the GL lines for each vendor. However, the bank statement we recieve is only in lump sum. Thus, when we upload the bank statement into SAP, only the lump sum amount is reflected in the GL, and if we want to clear it, we do so manually through F-03 for each Vendor account.
    While this is technically not wrong, it can be inefficient and time consuming if there are too many vendors in a particular run. I would like to know if there is a way to streamline this process by making it run automatically. Is there a way we can make it so that the system will know what to clear automatically, once the bank statement is uploaded?
    Your feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thank you! I hope you have a great day!
    Regards,
    Jonathan Concepcion

    Hi, Marssel
    Thank you for your response. We'll test  it once the opportunity arises and will let you know if it helped us
    Hi, Shanumonu
    Thank you for the link. We've read it before, and we would also like to try it out. However, we aren't familiar with using algorithms. May we ask if you are familiar with the step by step process of carrying it out from payment run up to the clearing process?
    Thank you! I hope you have a great day!

    Hi Vishal,
    I have changed the sort key on Bank Sub Account to Amount in Local Currency.
    When I am posting the payment document, the amount is getting populated in the Assignment Field.
    But the problem is coming when I post the Bank Statement. I tried to post the Bank Statement through Batch (SM35) to see what is getting populated into the Assignment field. The assignment is getting populated from Header Text, which is differing from Amount in Local Currency.
    If I change the manually to amount and post it, then it is clearing based on the clearing criteria set to amount in local currency. But this is not possible to change manually, as there could be number of items.
    Could you please let me know me know at the time of posting of manual bank statement I should be able to populated the value mentioned in sort key i.e., amount in local currency, but not the Header Text.
    Any valid inputs will be highly appreciated.

  • Transaction F.13 Automatic clearing without definition of clearing currency

    Hi, I need to excecute this transacciton like the transaction F-03, using residual items, because net amounts of posting keys are not equals. Are there any way ?
    Thaks in advance

    Hi Jeannett,
    It's not possible. The standard automatic clearing (F.13) has the premise that both the open items have the same amount.
    This prerequisite is neither configurable, sit treated as basic rule of accounting.
    You can develop a program (ABAP) that make this type of cleaning.

  • Automatic clearing  invoice reversal from the FBL1N transaction

    Hello,
    We are currently on SAP ECC 6.0 and when invoice documents are reversed  the following message occurs:
    Document reversed with doc nr xxxx please manually clear FI document.
    We have to clear manually the vendor line items (FBL1N trans.)
    Can anyone tell me in which version SAP cleares reversed invoices automatically from the FBL1N transaction ? Isn't  there really no way we can clear them automatically ?
    Thanks!
    Antoinette

    Hi Tony,
    I am reversing an invoice via MIR6 transaction. SAP created a cancellation document which equals debet and credit. Both entries are on the FBL1N but don't clear automatically.
    We have to ask people fomr cash management to clear the invoices fomr the FBL1N because otherwise they are pain when running the payment run because the invoices are also not being blocked for payment.
    To me it would logical that SAP clears automatically form the FBl1N as it was already decided to cancel the invoice and a debet and credit entrie sits on the FBL1N
    Thanks!

  • EBS: Automatic clearing of customer open items

    Hi Experts,
    I am setting up the electronic bank statement with format MT940 structured with field 86.  As part of the scope, business is requesting to ensure that customer open items gets cleared automatically when the bank statement is uploaded through transaction FF.5.  Because bank statement contains entries relating to payments by customers into the bank account.
    But here the problem is that customers will provided ONLY the name.  They do NOT provide either the invoice reference number (XBLNR) or our accounting document number (BELNR).
    I have searched a lot and found out that I can use the BAdI FIEB_CHANGE_BS_DATA to get the SAP customer number from the customer name given in Notes to Payee fields of MT940.  Kindly correct me if I am mistaken.
    Now from the derived customer number, I need to find out the related open items which match with the amount given in MT940.  So, how does the system know which open items can be cleared for the given amount.  Because the paid amount (by the customer) can be for an individual invoice or for a couple of invoices together.  Do I need to use the enhancement user exit FEB00001 to specify the system to use fields "Distribute by age" and "Automatic search" field in transaction F-32 ?
    Or is there any other better way of achieving this objective of automatic clearing of open items.  Asking our customers to provide the invoice reference number is not an alternative since it has already been tried a lot for long without any result.  So, business has requested for the set up in our system to ease this process of automatic clearing of open items.
    Thanks you so much for your time to help me on this.  I will be waiting for your kind responses.
    Regards,
    Sridhar

    Hi Experts,
    I got this resolved by using the enhancement FEB00001.  If the field "Distribute by age" is activated through this enhancement, then system will be able to match the paid amount and the combination of open items for automatic clearing.  If there is no exact match, then automatic clearing through FF.5 is not possible as indicated in SAP Note 124655.
    There is no more necessity to use BAdI FIEB_CHANGE_BS_DATA.  Complete relevant logic can be maintained directly in the enhancement itself.
    Have a nice day.

  • EBS Customer open items automatic clearing within tolerances

    Hi Experts,
    We have already implemented Elecronic Bank Statements automatic uploading functionality.  As part of this process, customer open items need to be cleared automatically. 
    As per the standard process, SAP will be able to clear off the open items ONLY if the collection amount (reflected in MT940) is exactly equal to the invoice amount (reflected in the open item).  But general practical situation is that customers may under / over pay.  For example, if the customer invoice is for USD 100,005 the actual payment from the customer could be for USD 100,000.  In this case, it is normal business practice that open item will be cleared off rather than keeping balance USD 5 in ledger and chasing the customer.
    So tolerances are already set up both at GL account level (Trans OBA4) and customer level (Trans OBA3) with blank tolerance group with permitted payment difference of USD 15.  And no tolerance group is assigned to the customer master.  Also account determination is maintained for the differences with nil reason code.
    Inspite of all these settings, I am getting an error message indicating that the difference is too large for clearing while trying to upload this bank statement.  Here the difference is only USD 5.
    My doubts are:
    1. Does the standard EBS program RFEBKA00 considers the permitted payment difference tolerances set in transaction OBA4 and OBA3 ?  I don't need to post the differences with reason code.  That's why account determination is maintained with blank reason code as well. 
    2. SAP Note 124655 (Point No 3) says that entering reasons for differences is not possible in the standard system through EBS.  Does that mean clearing of open items WITHOUT reason code is possible ?
    3. SAP Note 549277 (Point No 5) says that even though Note 124655 specifies certain functionalities as not supported in standard system, they can be achieved by customer through user exits.  Does that mean it is possible to code in the user exit saying that system should consider the payment difference tolerances for clearing off of the open items ?
    Could you kindly let me know your experience with these questions.  I will be very glad to hear from you.  Thanks for your time.
    Warm regards,
    Sridhar

  • Error when using automatic clearing (F.13)with foreign currency valuation.

    Hello all
    below is our problem, please suggest us a solution
    We are experiencing a problem when running the automatic clearing in SAP. Somehow, the system seems to clear (with no reason) open items created with the revaluation of foreign currency.
    Let's say that we run the valuation of open items in foreign currency for December 31, and we run the program to post the reverse entry as of  January 1 of the next year. As a result of this valuation, the system calculates a loss of 10 euros. Therefore, it posts a document with a debit entry of 10 into the Loss account, and a credit of 10 in to account where the valuation was carried out. This document has a posting date of December 31. The batch program also creates the reversing entry, this time a credit entry into the Loss account, and a debit into the original account.
    If now, we try to run the automatic clearing (F,13) on December 31 for those accounts, the system will create (automatically) a document on December 31, similar to the reversing entry that the valuation created, clearing at the same time, the first document that the valuation originally created.
    The final result then is that the valuation makes a posting, and we end up having two reversing entries. Does it make sense?
    In our scenario in the system P70, for MX10, we have a foreign currency valuation run on December 31st, which posted the document numbers:
    1)  5100004579/2008, for a total of  0 euros, and 240,483.17 MXN. Credit to account 11081108 Finavigate cash receipt bank collect.CMG MXN.Debit to account 18601000 Losses f.foreign curr.valuation on financial trans
    2) In the same batch, the system also books a reversing entry (doc 5100000042/2009) with posting date 01.01.2009 with exactly the same opposite entries as in the previous document.
    3) After this, we run the automatic clearing with posting date 31.12.2008, and now, the system creates automatically the document 5000003236/2008, which clear the original document, 5100004579.
    The final result, as you can see, it's out of balance, there is an additional document that we need to reverse.
    Thanks in advance
    sujatha

    To my knowledge you get do two things:
    1. In F.13 transaction don't include both the GL accounts where the Dr. and Cr. posting from the valuation run have taken place. With this the system won't find the matching entry.
    2. If you want to use all the GL accounts in F.13, then check the clearing procedure configuration and make suitable changes.
    With the info provided, this is the only thing I can suggest.

    ~Vishal.
