Clearing control

Client requirement,
Open items clearing strategy should be last in first out
Example: - open items Due dates             20.04.2010           -              1000
                                                                                20.05.2010           -              1500
                                                                                20.06.2010           -              1700
Payment received on 15.06.2010 amount of 2000/-
Generally SAP system will clear 20.04.2010 amount 1000/- and 20.05.2010 1000/-, but client donu2019t want this method he want to clear first current month invoice should be clear like 20.06.2010 amount 1700/- and after that if amount left it should be clear outstanding amount like 20.05.2010 amount 300/-
or we have to use any bapi or event to do this transactions.
Please let me know how to do this configuration please
Thanks for the support

Hi,
Go to the following path in SPRO-
IMG->Financial Accounting (New)->Contract A/c AR & AP->Basic Functions-> Open Item Mgmt->Clearing Control->Define clearing variants
Create a new variant and a clearing step.
In the clearing Step,in the sorting characteristic, choose "Due date with Deferral" and tick the sort check box.
Hope it helps....
Thanks,

Clearing control and Automatic clearing

Hello,
1.Why Automatic clearing(Business Transactions) is different from Clearing Control?
2.How Automatic clearing is linked to the Contract account?
3.Is it possible to mention both automatic clearing control and clearing control at two different fields so that based on my rquirement it should pick up automatically for to clear the open items through FPY1(payment Run)
4.How to overrule the clearing control settings for the contract account for to auto pick off Automatic clearing?
Regards,
Narn

Naren,
1.I hve looked into Auto clearing process but Can you give an example for to make me clear..
Best example is that you migrate your open items and open payments separately and you want to Set off open items and Open payments using some rules. This is done via FPMA.
2.Is that function module need to create user defined characterstic key?
You need to copy the standard, modify and attach it in the config in clearing rules
3.Can u explain clearly how the sytem is auto pickick off Automatic clearing over clearing control for certain grouped due items
It all depends on how you configure your clearing rules.
Criteria may/can be any or few of the following:
1. Oldest item first
2. When Invoice and Amount matches
3. When Invoice and Amount matches but with in Tolerance limits
4. When Invoice and Amount matches but outside Tolerance limits
5. Partial payment- to be posted as On Account or Clarification Account
6. Partial Payment to be posted to Division Gas first
7. If Parital Payment, to be divided among Gas, Electricity & Water in 50:40:10 ration <some ratio>
8. Treatment of partial payments different for Group Customers and Individual Customers
9. Treatment of Partial Payments to be linked to your Creditworthiness
10.Clearing Rules based on Collective and Non Collective CAs'
Much more......it all depends on how this is needed in your project & usually differs from Project to Project.

Clearing Control - Payment Method Paypal

Hi Friends,
For the Orders with Payment method - Paypal. A prepayment Request(Document type AA) is first created in CAX as we recieve money from paypal(Document type ZP) the following day.
Order / Document type/ Payment method
123 - AA - P
123 - ZP -P
AFter Payment Lot is posted, ZP and AA cleared with each other. In Advance Payment tab sometimes the document type ZP is present without a payment method P and sometimes with payment method P.
In the present setup of Clearing control the system uses the Payment method P to do clearing.
After the Invoice enters the system, there happens no clearing because of missing payment method. I have the following questions.
1. After the Payment lot is posted, where can the Payment method P be populated. Is it in some event?
Without touching clearing control,
2. how can the payment method be populated for all the documents. I can't effort to do it from FPE2 as there are more than 10000 payments(ZP) without clearing Invoices.
Thanks in advance

I'm guessing you don't have a debit card with your new checking acct? If you do, use that in the credit card option. A debit card can be used as a credit card if it has the Visa, etc logo on it. Otherwise, you can use the Bill Me Later option, though by the looks of it, it will take considerably longer that way.

Clear Control Centre 'Last Played'

Is it possible to clear the 'last played' in control centre?
I like the volume rocker and want to keep that, but I want to hide the 'last played'. Just find it really annoying..
Thanks in advance for any answers

Sadly, the iPad 3rd Generation does not recieve the blur/translucency effects which you are mentioning in iOS 7. (The reasoning for this situation is most likely listed below.)
1.) The difference in processing power between the iPad 3rd generation & iPad 4th generation, (The 4th Generation recieves these visual capabillities while the iPad 3rd Generation isn't capable of producing the effects).
2.) Marketing issues in which Apple prefers consumers to purchase a newer model instead of something older.
Turning on the 'Increase Contrast' option is Settings will on make the Notification Center & Control Center completely opaque. This setting is used to make text legibillity higher.
I hope that this answers your question, if you have anymore questions, just ask. Enjoy your iPad (:

Clear control on Infopath form 2013

Dear Friends,
In my Infopath form I have lot of controls . I want to clear or reset all the fields with one clear button. How to achive this with out using the code . there is one way which I know is setting empty value to each and every control it is bit
tough to set this for each and every control. Please let me know how to achieve this.
Thanks
valmiki

Hi
Add a button to your Form, called it Clear
Add a rule to the button
Select one action: Open a new form to fill in + the Form Template ID or location
==============================================
You can use "New Record" option available in the button properties, which is basically resets all fields and ready to enter new record.
Check the attached image
=========================================================
InfoPath does not come out-of-the-box with a Reset button.
So you’ll have to resort to either using rules or writing code to reset fields in InfoPath. - Link
These are the options you have for resetting fields in InfoPath:
If you have a limited amount of fields (e.g. less than 10) on an InfoPath form you want to clear or reset, you can use the Set a field’s value action in a rule for each field you want to reset. Limitation:
You won’t be able to clear the rows in a repeating table using this technique.
If you have a limited amount of fields (e.g. less than 10) on an InfoPath form you want to clear or reset, you can write code to set
the value of each field you want to reset. In addition, by using code you can also delete all of the rows
in a repeating table to clear it.
If you have many fields (e.g. more than 50) on an InfoPath form, using the first or second method will quickly become cumbersome. It is then best to use the technique I’ll explain next.
Suppose you have the following InfoPath form template with controls and a button control for which you want to write code to reset fields on the entire InfoPath form.
Note that the repeating table is pre-populated with 3 items and that when you clear the fields, you also want to revert back to the repeating table containing only these 3 items.

Clearing Control-CL document with FICA items

Hi Friends,
I have the following scenario.
Actual:-
Order with Document type AA(My Invoice) and payment method V.
1. Customer has paid with w.r.t to Business partner number info.
2. Payment was posted on the Account and the document with document type ZU is posted
3. With clearing system generates 3 CL documents.
I have no idea why the system generates 3 CL documents instead of creating one CL clearing document.
Correct will be:-
Now I have analysed a similar scenario in other system it worked perfectly without CL documents. Single CL clearing document was created
RE-Invoice
ZU- Account posting and no direct clearing.
FPMA:- A CL clearing document is created.
CL document is visible only in clearing data at the document level.
Can you throw some light on it.
Thanks in advance!
Lakshmi

Hi Amlan,
I am glad that you have looked into the issue.
Sorry, may be I have n't explained clear enough. Under the Title
Actual, I meant that
1. By clearing Open Invoice and Credit note on the Account, my understanding would be a CL document gets created as attached in the last screenshot without any CAX items.
But in my First screenshot a new CL document with FI-CA items is created in it.
Here the document class at the Header level is " "space.
why is a new Clearing document created with FPMA with FI-CA items. This CL document in table DFKKOP has Document class as " " and does not have 1 saying that there are no FI-CA items.
I did not understand the background of it.
Expected is,
I expected a new CL document without FICA items and as document class saying that there are no FICA items like in Last screenshot.
Similar to that of Order 100130067.
Thanks a ton and would be grateful for a reply.

Regarding clearing strategy in FI-CA

Hello...
This is pertaining to clearing strategy in FI-CA, when customer pays an extra amount against invoice it should go as payment on account but it is getting adjusted against next debit line item (i.e installments due for future dates).
Our requirement is, it should not adjust against next debit line item due but show as payment on account.
Request you all to share your views for the same.
Regards,
Mitesh Sureliya.

Hi Mitesh,
The clearing depends on your Clearing Variant. Please check the customizing clearing Variant in SPRO-Financial accounting-Contract A/C -ARAP-Basic Functions-Open Item Mgmt-Clearing Control-Clearing Variants-Define Clrng Variant.
First you need to check the variant assigned to Clearing type-05 under above path but clicking-Define specification for Clearing Types-Define defaults for Incoming payment.
Once you find the clearing variant, go to the above said Clearing control menu path and check the clearring steps like Grouping/Sorting/Grouping Rule/End of Clearing steps and make necessary changes to suit your requirement.
Hope this helps. Thank you.
Best Regards,
B.Kartthik.

Clearing of oldest items first in FICA

Dear Friends,
My Utility client is implementing SAP-ISU.
Presently their Legacy system uses a "Balance Carryforward" functionality for clearing the open items.
The system simply clears the oldest bills outstanding for the Business partner with the Payments received.
So whether the customer pays through check/draft/direct memo instructions the system clears the oldest bills outstanding.
The same functionality is required in SAP.
Their is no requirement for assignment criteria for clearing of payments say check number/bill number,etc except the Customer's Contract a/c.
SAP suggests clearing of Outstanding bills through Payment lots/ Check lots/card lots using assignment criteria.
Please let me know how i can have payment clearing with this 'oldest bill first' clearing functionality in SAP.
Also request to please send me your phone numbers so that i can contact you for seeking help.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Priyank,
The clearing of items in first in first out basis can be done through clearing control.
You have to do the settings in the follwing path.
IMG -> Financial Accounting (New) -> Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable -> Basic Functions -> Open Item Management -> Clearing Control -> Define Clearing Variants
Hope it will be useful to you.

Bodhayan

FICA - Clearing Variants - Alternative Clearing Variant

Hi all,
I'm facing an issue with this Clearing Variants,
We have one clearing variant defined with 5 steps. In step 4 we need to attach a customer Function module to validate certain conditions (For eg. We'll be checking whether there are open items from more than one company code), if that validation is successful, we need to trigger the alternative Clearing variant (instead of proceeding with subsequent step 5 of current clearing variant).
In the config of clearing control (VC_TFK115), we have options to specify Customer FM ( Field V_TFK115-FUNCC)
Sample FM given is FKK_SAMPLE_TFK115 .
Also we can specify Alternative Clearing Variant and step ( Field V_TFK115-VERVARA & V_TFK115-STPNOA )
Can someone throw some light on how this Alternative Clearing Variant works (Iu2019m not getting much idea from the documentation)
I assume the alternative clearing variant will be triggered based on some condition / flag setting ( there's one flag Y_GEN_CLRG_PROPOSAL available in the FM interface of FKK_SAMPLE_TFK115 )
All suggestions/comments are most welcome, I tried searching for some documentation on the same, but not able to find anything relevant.
Thanks in advance,
Aby Wilson

Hi Bogdan,
Let me explain the background of this issue,
As per the FICA consultant here, we have one clearing variant defined with multiple steps, after the first few steps (lets assume in step 4), we need to check for a specific condition. The condition is whether docs from more than one company code is present or not. If it is present we need to proceed with the step 5 of the current clearing variant itself. But if all docs are of same company code, we need to call a different Clearing variant step (That's where we are trying to use this alternative clearing variant ).
In any case, I'm looking for some info on how an Alternative clearing variant works? There's a field given to specify Alt. clearing variant in any clearing variant steps, if we specify that, will that be executed in all cases or we need to do something else to trigger that.
I'm not a functional guy, but what I understand from the FICA person is that, based on the company code condition (multiple or single), he wants the subsequent clearing steps (and there by the clearing logic) to be different.
If you suggest some other ways of achieving the same, that's also welcome.
Hi Rajendra ,
I have already read the documentation for FKK_SAMPLE_TFK115, but there's no hint on how to trigger Alternative clearing variant in that. It only tells about how we can manipulate the clearing logic based on specific requirements.
Thanks,
Aby

Payment via FPY1 and a lock for automatic clearing

Hello,
I would like to lock a debit item for automatic clearing but let it be paid via FPY1.
When trying to lock it using the posting lock it can't be paid via FPY1.
What can I do ?
Thanks,
Vered

Hi ,
In
CA/A/r a/p--basic function--open item management --clearing control--define specification for clearing types --define defaults for account maintenance
click on the clearing type (03,04) and go to selection criteria define for clearing category and the concerned main/sub , tick the NC column , this will exclude the particular main sub from clearing .
similarly for account maintenance during invoicing go to
sap utilities --- invoicing ---invoice processing --item selection in invoicing --item selection in account maintenance for the clearing type , click on item selection for account maintenance , for the main/sub, mark OISEL ="9"

Partial Clearing of Invoices

Hi Experts,
I am unable to clear an open item partially using payment lot when I give only the print doc number in selection value -it goes into postprocess. However, when I provide the total open amount it gets cleared.If I give the document number in the selection field then the item gets partially cleared.
The requirement is while posting payment lot the user will only provide partial amount and the print document number(XBLNR) in the payment lot item list.
I think the clearing steps in my clearing variant is not configured to meet the requirement above. Someone please advice.
Thanks in advance
Satyajeet

Hi Satyajeet,
First you need to find out the clearing variant which you have assigned with the incoming payments. You will find it in the following path:
SPRO-Financial Accounting-Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable-Basic Functions-Open Item Management-Define Specifications for Clearing Types-Define Defaults for Incoming Payments.
After you get the clearing variant for incoming payments, you have to see the clearing steps of it. You will find it in the following path:
SPRO-Financial Accounting-Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable-Basic Functions-Open Item Management-Clearing Control-Clearing Variants-Define Clearing Variants.
Please select the clearing variant and double click on the clearing steps at the left hand side. In the 'Group Rule', you will see a field called 'Amount Rule'. If it is set as '0' (Clearing only possible when amounts are the same), please delete the value and make it blank. Save the clearing variant now.
Hope this will help.
Thanks.

Control Recipie Status in a process order

Dear PP Gurus
How can i clear Control Recipie Status in a process order, without that TECHO is not allowing....can u pls suggest..??
Regards
Ragesh

Ragesh,
It looks like you are trying to TECO the order without processing the control recipe. If my memory goes it is the status "CRCR" which would prevent this.
In your case Control Recipe is already created, so you need to send a process message to set the status of the control recipe to finished. "CRFI". Follow the steps below,
Transaction CO57, to trigger manually a process message with message Category PI_CRST for the process order and Control reciepe combination.
Then use Transaction CO54 to send the Message to the process order.
Hope this would resolve the problem....Reward full points and close the thread,
Regards,
Prasobh

FPMA auto Clearing is not working.

Hi All,
FPMA auto Clearing is not working.
Scenario
Contract account is having open invoices and also open credit items. The total open invoice amount is equal to the total open credit items. So the contract account balance is ZERO.But the open credit items and open invoices are not having a clearing document because its not cleared. I have executed FPMA transaction with proper parameters but auto clearing is not happend.
Questions are:
1) what would be the reason behind not functioning the auto clearing
2) Job log of the FPMA program is showing exceptions ( some times with execption 6 and some times with 10,etc) . is there any table to check exceptions.
3) what is the diff between FPL9 ( account maintenance ) and FPMA auto clearing.
Regards,
Will

Hi,
I have put together all the possible scenarios in my previous post against the failure of auto clearing.
Now to elaborate my point (i)(ii)-
(a) There is an object called clearing lock which you will find at the document level.which you will find in the payment data tab of the display document screen.
If there is any value in the clearing lock, it indicates that the particular item will not be cleared.
Also check for the posting lock field at the contarct account level. This field prevents any new line item to be posted into the account.
(b) Items which have clearing restriction 8 can't be cleared with any other item nor they can be dunned.Clearing restriction field is also there in the the payment data tab of the display document screen.
I would recommend you to perform the clearing through Account maintaineance (FP06). If it gets cleared, then there is some bug in the clearing control config for Auto clearing.
If it doesn't, then it will throw some error in the status bar. Just go thru the error and you will be analyse it further.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Amlan
