Branch account clearing

Hello,
We use a head office and branch customer accounts in a project. I recorded branch customer accounts and head office from customer master record and assigned all of the branch accounts to a head office. When i post invoice and made the collection in branch account, i see the all of the transactions also in head office account in FBL5N. I have not a problem in these processes. But when i want to do a partial clearing, i can not see the clearing document and balances in branch customer account in FBL5N. I can only see the clearing document in head office account in FBL5N.
I want to see the clearing document in branch accounts in FBL5N. Because our customers want to follow not only head office, but also branch customer account in FBL5N.
Thanks,

Hi,
I can see docements of branch account and head office account in FBL5N. I can not only see clearing document of branch account in FBL5N.
When i want to do clearing of branch account in F-32, system give a warning "no open items were found".Because of this i do clearing to head office account. Example:
We have a invoice in 1000 EUR. Its document type is DR and our customer is A branch.
And regarding to this invoice we made a collection from customer in 800 EUR. Its document type is DZ and our customer is also A branch. These documents have been posted in branch account but automatically they are assigned to head office account. Then i want to clear these documents in system in F-32. But branch account can not be cleared. Because of this i m clearing the head office account ragarding to branch account.
My problem is i can see the clearing document in 200 EUR difference posting in line items of head office account in FBL5N. But i can not see this clearing document in line items of branch account. I also want to see the difference postings in line items of branch account.
Thanks for your replies,

Branch Accounting

Folks,
Currently my client is using traditional Branch Accounting functionality in their bespoke legacy system. Where there are transfers between branches, e.g. transfers of funds or payment of expenses on behalf of another branch, an intermediate/clearing account is used.
Example:
Branch A pays for expense on behalf of Branch B
In the books of branch A
DR Interbranch - Clearing a/c
CR Bank (Branch A)
In the books of branch B
DR Expense
CR Interbranch - Clearing a/c
Both branch A and B are under the same legal compay code.
My client would like to retain these type of postings within SAP. I am planning to use Business Area to represent Branch.
Could you please advise if such posting schemes are possible in SAP? If so, please could you advise on how to set this up in SAP.
Thanks,
Teck

Hi,
Business area is not advisable.Go for profit center accounting.
While Creating GL Accounts, you can mention the GL Accounts as Interbranch in GL Account description.You can also maintain clearing accounts in GL
Have you explored SAP Banking Module. I do not much about this? Give it a try.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Assign points if useful.

On Account Clearing Vendor/Customer

Dear fellows
We are to be implementing SAP ERP ECC 6 by u201CABACUS Consulting (Implementer)u201D here we enable the new GL functionality for segment reporting. We have a hot issue with on account clearing in both customer and vendor.
The scenario is that
When we clear on account customer through f-32 and vendor through f-44 the system generates extra line items those increase the debit and credit amount with their respective ledgers.
*Example*
Create customer invoice e.g 50,000 Rs. with profit center 10, segment 1000
Receipt on account payment from customer 50,000 Rs. with profit center 10, segment 1000
Clear the account with f.32 at that time clearing line items are generating.
Note:
According to our implementers u201CAbacusu201D this is the standard functionality of SAP and referred the SAP standard Note 69767 to prove their justifications.
The transaction is not relevant with given below difference clearing:
1.     Account Type
2.     open Item Account Number
3.     General Ledger Account
4.     GL Account Number
5.     Main Asset Number
6.     Company Code
7.     business Area
8.     business place
9.     Profit Center
10.     Partner Profit Center
11.     Credit Control Area
12.     Company ID
13.     Update Currency for General Ledger Transaction Figure
14.     Withholding Tax Code
15.     Certificate Number of the Withholding Tax Exemption
16.     Payee code
17.     Document Number for Earmarked Fund
18.     Earmarked Funds: Document Item

hello srikanth
thanks for showing ur intrepid.
invoice entries (fb60)
Vendor(10013)               10,000
Exp(41709006)          10,000
payment entries (fbcj)
vendor(10013)          10,000
Cash (16620006)               10,000
clearing entries
Vendor(10013)          10,000
vendor(10013)               10,000
the clearing document increase the DR and Cr amounts.
here, i want to clear one thing, this is not the SAP standard functionality because i have test this scenario on my IDES system and it is not generating any extra line items.
SAP released the notes 69767 to justify the clearing line items and the system exactly work according to the notes, but in our case any of the given options (mentioned in Notes and my above post) be not matched causes to generate any extra line items.

How to configure Automatic Account Clearing for A/R

Hi,
Kindly advice me how to configure Automatic Account Clearing for A/R
The client requirement is
In A/R the customer accounts are not automatically clearing when a payment is posted for that account. We are still seeing all open items and all paid or cleared items when we go to FBL5N and select open items for viewing. Please make account clearing automatic for customer payments.
Thanks in advance
Sunitha

Hi,
Use T code OB74.
Maintain for your Chart Of Account, acct type "D", From and to customer accounts and then add the critera you want. Pls note you cannot define more than 5 criteria.
Then schedule the clearing program job F.13 in the background.
Cheers.

Message NA AU133 Account Clear rev sale to affil comp could not be found

I am trying to transfer assets from one company to another (Transaction ABT1N).
The above message tells me to "Enter this account in the account determination for Asset Accounting".
I cannot find this in the IMG. Can anyone advise please
Thanks

Hi, I have tried to assign a P&L acount to "account Clear revenue sale to affil. company" but the system gives me the following errors against existing field "clearing acct revenue from asset sale"! (which currently is a balance sheet account) and has worked successfully for years!
Error AC305 "Account xxxxx not allowed to be a balance sheet account" and Error AC306 "Account xxxxx not defined as a P&L account".
I have looked at other posts and it appear this is only a problem since 4.6. One post on the forum suggests a work around by changing the message status in OBA5 by setting WW against each message number. These settings already exist as Online "W" and Batchl "W".
Have you any ideas how I can get around this problem?

Manual account clear but can see line item after post document

Hi Guru!
I have post account clear with transaction code F-03 with open item zero balance such as
account 214001 balance +500
account 214001 balance -500
when I simulate entry the system not show line item for post document but can post it . I want to know why ?
thank you very much .

Dear,
This is standard behaviour...if line item which you are clearing have zero balance then system will not show any line items since open itemss are cleared....
when you have tolerance difference or the residual posting then only system will show the line item....

Enter Document Type during GL Account Clear at F-03

Hi All,
Because I would like to use a special document type when I perform this particular transaction. Thus would like tto change the "Document Type" set as default by the system at this T-Code F-03.
I would appreciate if someone can enlighten me where can I configure for the Document Type" Field to be displayed during Account Clear: F-03.
Many Thanks!

Hi People,

I have tried to go to OBU1. Strangely, I couldn't find the default document type for T-Code: F-03.
Thus I couldn't change the default document type.
Please advise. Thanks!

Vendor account clearing - Error message F5354

Hi All,
I am trying to do Vendor account clearing through transaction code F-44, when I am getting the error message Message no. F5354
"Account "1000001" in company code "1000" is marked as a reconciliation account for account type "K" and cannot therefore be directly posted to".
Account 1000001 is a reconciliation account defined in the vendor. The documents which I am trying to clear do not have any special GL indicators.
Please can anyone tell me why I am getting this message
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Usually you have to give Adj. GL for automatic exchange rate clearing differences.
Please change the account in OBA1 transaction under account key KDF.
Here you have given reconciliation account for B/s account which can't possible for direct postings.
Please select recon account and double click, there you will find the account determination GL accounts.

What is the T.code for GL Accounts Clearing

Hi,
IN which transaction we will do the GL Accounts Clearing?
Thanks
Supriya

Hello,
Please go to F-03 and give the GL account which want to manually clear the debit and credit items.
Normally you will this kind of activity for clearing account, where there is no automatic clearing mechanism explained in OB74.
now click on open items. (if you know any specific things like document number etc. you can fill them, then they will act as a FILTER and only those document numbers you feeded will be appeared)
Now select the items you want to clear. Deselected all other you do not want to clear. Selected items will be in blue colour and the difference at the end of the screen MUST be ZERO to post (unless you configured otherwise)
Click on save button.
The entries passed will GL Account A Dr and GL Account B Cr. Meaning that there is no implication but posting the debit and crediting the same account and clearing the status of the line items from OPEN to CLEARED.
Hope I am clear.

Ravi

Manual exchange rate for F-03 account clearing

I want to enter a manual exchange rate during F-03 account clearing instead of the system proposed rate. how can i do that?

Hi,
F-03 is for clearing already posted items. I am not sure why you want to specify an exchange rate. The document already posted with an exchange rate will be cleared here. If you want to clear 2 already posted items, you cant specify any exchange rates. If you cleared in a currency other than LC then, exchange rate loss/gain will be posted for the difference in LC.
If you are entering any 1 line item manually, then also you can't specify the exchange rate, but still you can specify the amount in local currency as well.

Dunning for head office/branch account

Hi All,
Our client is maintaining the customers with relationship of head office and branch account.
Ex: Customer 1 has been created as Head office account and the same customer maintained as branch office account.
Head office customers are maintained with series Axxxxxxxxxx
Branch office customers are maintained with series Bxxxxxxxxxx
In the customer master data for branch customer Bxxxxxxxxxx, relationship wtih head officehas been maintained.
In the current scenario, we raised an invoice with customer Bxxxxxxxxxx for Rs.1000, in the next activity we received an amount of Rs.200 from the same customer through his head office account Axxxxxxxxxx.
Now if i go to t.code: FBL5N for customer Axxxxxxxxxx. system shows an outstanding amount of rs.800(i.e. 1000 -200). Now i would like to issue a dunning notice to the customer Axxxxxxxxxx. when i run the dunning run system is not giving the correct result(i.e dunning letter not showing the outstanding balance as rs.800). when i run the dunning for customer Axxxxxxxxxx it shows only amount received rs.200(not considering the invoice amount rs.1000 )
When i run the dunning for customer Bxxxxxxxxxx it shows outstanding balance as rs.1000.
Can somebody suggest me how can i get correct dunning letter when i run for customer Axxxxxxxxxx. (i would like to send a dunning notice with Rs.800 (1000-200)
Let me know if you need any information/ clarity on the above
Thanks in advnace

Account Clearing Concept

Dear all,
I am working on a training document to demostrate account clearing. I am now making a GL Document first (FB50) and then F-03
in FB50, can anyone teach me the DrCr entry please?
Debit which type of account? (Asset/Liability/?)
Credit which type of account?
The Debit one need "open item management" turned on?
Thanks please help! thanks

Hi
Posting of any document we have to follow the rules :
1) Debit all expenses and losses credit all incomes and gains
Eg: Rent paid, salaries paid, wages paid and any other expenses are debit
Eg: Rent received, interest received and any other income received are credit
2) Debit the receiver credit the giver
Eg: vendors are debit
Vendor
To Bank
Eg : Customers are credit
Bank A/c dr
To Customer
3) Debit what comes in and credit what goes out
Eg: Asset purchase, bank/cash receipt
Eg: sale of asset, bank/cash payment
Based on above compare with your scenario and post debit or credit.

Autometic Account Clearing FI

Can anybody suggest me the way through which we can have autometic account clearing for some of the customer and don't have the autometic clearing some specific customer controlled by dynamic index profile and Sales Order Type. Thanks a lot in advance.

Dear,
1. Clearing
You will clear the documents which are already posted but not cleared. Here you will do only clearing...
2. Post with clearing...
In earlier transaction documents were already posted but not cleared so you cleared them. But here no documents have been posted so you will post the document and by clicking on process open item tab you will clear that posted item at that time only so this is basically a two fold transaction.

Dimensions for branch accounts?.

We would like to know if usage of dimensions for branch accounting in SAP B1 would be a goods way to account for branches.
This would enable us to use one standard chart of accounts. However, how do we enter opening balances etc.?
Also does SAP provide for dimension wise user definitions and authorisations?
Can warehouses be linked to dimensions too?
We would also like to know how does SAP B1 intend dimensions to be used?? What is the basic purpose of having dimensions.

Dear Avinash Todi,
Here SAP forum rule is only one question per post.
See dimension is use basically for internal reporting purpose.
if you wnat to manage branch accounting you need to go for account segmentation.
There is no dimension wise authorisation.
you cant liked your warehouses to dimensions.
Dimension is only use for internal department reporting but dimension not fullfill your all financial reporting
(Basically user department wise irect ex direct revenue indirect exp indirect rev )
If you have any other you can contact me.
