Can't post JE to control account

I am trying to import my clients historical month end balances for 2008 (Jan, Feb, March etc...).  However, my imports are erroring out with the message "Cannot perform transaction in controlling type account 1210-310-00."  This is my client's A/R account.  If SAP isn't going to let me post to any control accounts how can I upload my client's historical GL balances?

You do need to split the opening balance between the actual debtors. This can also be achieved using the Opening Balances form, and keying the data for each business partner.
It will make it more difficult when receiving payments against the however, so, we generally import open documents as service based documents with the GL account for "revenue" offsetting to an Opening Balances account. This should all reconcile to nil once all the Gl Opening balances have been entered.

  • I can't post on my facebook account. Either it has a share button and it doesn't record my post, or there is NO share button.

    For the last 5 days, I've been getting a message that says firefox has blocked me from opening a new window. I have to x that to get onto facebook. Once I'm in, everything I try to do brings up this message. My friend's posts don't have the share button. My home page HAS a share button, but when I enter something into my status update and hit share, nothing happens. I use Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002 Service pack 3. Since having these problems, I've tried updating my Java program and my firefox. I updated Java because I kept getting script errors and Face book would tell me my Java script was disabled on my log in page.

  • Posting opening balances to control accounts

    Hi everyone,
    I am entering the opening balances in SAP B1 2007 PL: 42 and I am unable to post the A/R and A/P balances because they are control accounts and there are transactions already posted to these accounts. I can't do a Journal Entry either.  Can anyone give me a suggestion on what i should do?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Control accounts in Business One is only used for buisness partner transactions. Meaning, any transaction doone on the account is connected to a BP.
    If you with to post on a control account in a manual JE just press Ctrl+Tab when the account field is active in the JE screen, select the relevant BP and make your posting.
    The control account field is not displayed by default in the Je screen so you should use form settings to make it visible and active if need be.
    If the BP has more than one control account you can change from the default one that will be selected by deleting the control account on the JE line and tabing out, a screen will open with all control accounts associated to the BP.
    To post Opening Balances, use the BP option instead of the account option.
    Hope it helps,
    Jesper

  • F_IT_01 shows that there are some accounts that can be post automatically

    Hi,
    during the test run of TC: F_IT_01 (Year-End postings)  the sys shows that there are some accounts (account type "D" and "K") that can be post automatically.
    If I try to process the session only for those accounts the sys does not create any document.

  • What is Control Accounts? What is C/A for A/R and A/P?

    I have US COA set up automatically by SBO. So all accounts are already set up there.
    When I go to: Administration > Setup > Financial > G/L Account Determination:
    In Sales (general) tab, I noticed Account Receivable with (...) next to it.
    When I clicked it, it will bring window of Control Accounts for A/R.
    In Purchasing (general) tab, I noticed Account Payable with (...) next to it.
    When I clicked it, it will bring window of Control Accounts for A/P.
    1. What is this Control Accounts?
    Can I leave it blank as it is? If I left it blank, will it affect financial result? If the answer is it is OK to leave it blank then no need to answer my questions below. If I need to fill it out, then I need help with questions # 2  and # 3 below.
    2. Inside this Control Accounts for A/R: (note: we do business Domestic only)
    What will be the correct Account Code for Down Payment Receivable? (My guess it is A/R Domestic)?
    What will be the correct Account Code for Open Debts? (My guess it is A/R Domestic)?
    3. Inside this Control Accounts for A/P: (note: we do business Domestic only)
    What will be the correct Account Code for Down Payment Payable? (My guess it is A/P Domestic)?
    What will be the correct Account Code for Open Debts? (My guess it is A/P Domestic)?
    What will be the correct Account Code for Assets Account? (My guess it is A/P Domestic)?
    Thank you.

    Hi Tom
    You can define a G/L account as a control account.
    A control account links the business partner accounts to the general ledger. You must enter a control account in every business partner master record. Whenever you post a document to a business partner account, the system automatically adds a journal entry to the general ledger, which posts the receivables or payables to this control account.
    Some transactions, such as transactions with bills of exchange, must be posted to special control accounts. Therefore, you can assign these special accounts to predefined transaction types, such as
    Open Debts, Assets Account, Down Payments Receivable/Payable or other (country-dependent).
    You can also enter default control accounts under Administration  Setup  Financials  G/L Account Determination. These accounts appear by default whenever you create a new business partner.
    The system displays the total account balance in the business partner master record. From there you can navigate to the line item display of the account. In the line item display, the system displays the debit values in black and the credit values in green and in parentheses.
    If you are working with several control accounts, the system can display the business partner balances separately for every control account. To activate this, choose Administration  System Initialization  General Settings and select the Display Accounts Balance by Control Accounts indicator on the BP tab.
    You must have the proper authorization to view the accounts and balances.
    Hope this helps.

  • Control account reposting documentation

    Hello,
    I`d like to know if there is any documentation about Financials/Control account reposting functionality ? I've checked F1 Help, Help and SDN portals but i couldn`t find it.
    Regards,
    Jedrzej

    Sorry.  There are 5 localizations have this function.  You must be one of them.  Here is the online help:
    This function creates a new journal entry from a posting on the control account. The application uses this for posting special accounts that are parallel to the control account; therefore, balances on the control account are not affected.
    This function can be useful when:
    You are preparing financial statements during end-of-year procedures
    You need to present certain transactions, for example, down payments to a business partner, in different rows of financial statements

  • Variance in MIRO can not post to stock account (price control:MAP)

    Hi, all
    As I know, if there is variance between PO price and INVOICE, the variant value will be posted to the stock account, if material with Moving Average Price.
    But when I test this process in my system(4.6C), the variance was posted to a variance account(by TE: DIF), the stock quantity is not less than the Invoice quantity.
    Why this happen?
    Does this is some bug in my system???
    Thanks very much for your help.
    Shafiat.G

    Hello
    For a material valuated at a moving average price, the price difference is posted to the stock account, provided there is sufficient stock coverage for the quantity invoiced. If sufficient stock coverage is not available, only the amount for the available quantity is posted to the stock account; the remaining amount is posted to a revenue or expense account.

  • I made my main account a parental control account and when I accessed the account created as admin, at the Parental Control options I deleted my main account and now I can't get back in it. I need help with this problem.

    I made my administrator account a parental control account, at the time of creating it, the system asked for my administrator password, to restart the computer, and the new account was created. When I accessed that account at the parental control menu I could see my main account on the list and i deleted the account from that list, and now i'm trying to get back to it but I'm not able to because every time i restart the computer brings me back to the account I created. I searched for help on the web and it says to go to users and select the account I want to restore but I can't do it. Please help.

    Dear Colleagues,
    On MIRO,users have come across this error where they can not post to a particular G/L account using 2 different cost centres(219 & 220).
    We have some validations on OB28 but although one particular step menitons this message as I stated above,the prerequisite of that step seem to be referring to G/L IN VAL_Plant No_16 AND Cost Center IN VAL_Plant No_17.
    Whereabouts I need to maintain this G/L account/Cost Centre Combination?II had a look at OME9/OKB9 but couldn't get any resolution looking over there...
    All Help appreciated.

  • Where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting

    hi sap gurus
      can anybody give where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
    thank you
    venkatareddy

    Hi Venkatareddy,
    You make specifications for fiscal years and posting periods in the SAP R/3 System in Customizing for Financial Accounting. This is done in the fiscal year variant in the global parameters of the company code. These settings are, in general, also binding for Asset Accounting. The depreciation periods in Asset Accounting then correspond to the posting periods in Financial Accounting.<b> It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.</b>
    The period control in the depreciation key determines the start and end of depreciation when asset transactions are posted . The period control determines the relationship between the calendar period in which the asset transaction is posted and the depreciation period.
    These calendar periods are independent of the posting periods in Financial Accounting. The only restriction is that the beginning of the first calendar period and the end of the last calendar period defined in a period control have to match the start date and final date of the fiscal year in Financial Accounting.
    Kindly let me know if this useful for you
