Clearing of customer GL

Kindly suggest I had booked an option contract via TBB1 on 27.11.2009, as a result of which the entry passed is
Option Premium A/c dr
To customer clearing GL
Now the payment to the customer is to be made on 1st Dec'2009 as on that date the spot is due, in the meantime as on month end i want the Customer clearing GL balance to be nil at the same time i cannot make the payment in November month. Kindly suggest how i can make the customer clearing balance as nil without making the bank payment.

HI,
As per accounting practice you need to show both debit and credit of a posting in respective accounting areas, You can not only show Premium Account Debit and nowhere showing credit entry. Reversing a contract is not a logical solution. You may transfer customer open item to a Sundry Creditors account or any other payable or to a Bank Clearing account during monthend closing and transer back to customer account on 1st and clear against bank from customers account only.

Residual Clearing for Customer in F-32

Hi
We have two instances, one with New GL and the other one on Classical Gl, but ECC 6.0
I am facing issue in residual clearing for Customer Open Items. I have a customer open item - Invoice of 1000 and Payment Recipet of 200. I am clearing 200 against the invoice of 1000 and creating a residual item of 800, which will reflects as open item of 800 after posting clearing through F-32. My Issue is with the way the Accounting entry of clearing document are created.
New GL System, the Accounting Entry is reflected as:
Customer A/c Dr    800
Customer A/c Dr    200
           To Customer A/c 1000
In this the line items of 200 and 1000 reflect as cleared items in FBL5N and 800 item appears as open item in FBL5N
Classical GL System, the Accounting Entry is reflected as:
Customer A/c Dr 800
    To Customer A/c 800
The Line Item of 800 Cr appears as Cleared Item in FBL5N and 800 Dr Item appears as open item in FBL5N.
Why is the Clearing Document created in different ways in the two system? Do we have any configuration, which decides the nature of how the Accounting Entry for Clearing Document is created in case of Residual Clearing in F-32?
Regards
Sanil

Hi
In the Clearing Procedure in FBKP, the Posting Key and Document Type are assigned. Also, in OBA3, tolerance setting for clearing are determined. My issue is on how the Accounting Entry for Residual Item is created for system on new GL. I have checked the configuration suggested but they do not help on the way how the accounting entry is created for Clearing Document.

Payment Run - Clearing between Customer and Vendor and Partner Bank Account

Is there a way to have the bank details for the payment to be pulled from the vendor master if an outgoing payment is created or from the customer master if an incoming payment is created? Our requirement is to consider both vendor and customer items during payment processing. In doing so, if the net of the clearing between the customer and vendor account results in an incoming payment, we want to use the bank details specified from the customer and if the net results in an outgoing payment, we want the bank details on the vendor master to be used.
As such we tick the box on Vendor master to clear with customer and tick the box on Customer master to clear with Vendor. We have defined 2 payment methods and entered both payment methods on both the customer and Vendor. We have also entered the different bank accounts on the payment transactions tab of the vendor and customer masters.
It seems regardless of resulting payment method chosen, the bank details are getting pulled from the vendor master.

Hi,
It is possible without any doing any kind of config or master data changes
While doing F-53, after entering all the required data in open item selection screen, after getting vendor open line items, go to menu item edit->select more.
There enter account type as D and company code (customer account no's comp code) and click on process open items
So you can choose the line items from the other company code's customer also.
Thanks,
Srinu

Auto Clearing of Customer Account with Special G/L W

Dear Experts,
Currently auto clearing of customer account with norm items is running smoothly.
When we tried to run the same for Special G/L Indicator "W' in F.13 tcode , it is not happening (Category 'W' special G/L transaction were
not selected).
Even we tried to change the rules in Ob74 but no luck.
We can do manual clearing through F-32 but the volume is very high on every day.
Since we considered Open PDC's is one of the criteria for credit control customer in our business and hence system is blocking
all customers where documents having special g/l w even though net amount is zero in fbl5n.
Could you please suggest me how to do auto clearing.
Regards
Shaik

Vendor as customer ( clearing with customer field)

Hi
Iam customer number in control view of vendor master
i think nest i have to check the clearing with customer indicator, but iam not finding this field. help me out with the navigation for this field
chris

hi
If a vendor is a customer then you need to
i) First create a master for the customer
ii) Mention the name of the created customer in the master data of the vendor in the control view under Account Control in the Customer Field (LFA1-KUNNR)The customer number is used by the payment and dunning programs for clearing open items. For line item display, the link to the customer line items is established using this number.
If you require clearing between the customer and vendor, the following requirements must be met:
$ The customer number must have been entered in the corresponding vendor master record.
$ The vendor number must have been entered in the corresponding customer master record.
$ The fields "Clrg with vend." or "Clrg with cust." must have been selected in both master records.
Kindly let me know if it is useful

Auto clear of customer thru tcode F-32

Hi All,
My automatic open item clearing has three criteria for customer clearance:
1. Assignment
2. Business Area
3. Trading partner
when i subtotal the customer account on the basis of subtotal of Business area it is showing 0 for one business area.
while clearing the Customer master data it is not clearing the account for the transactions for that business area.
What can be the reason for that?
regards
Meenakshi

Does it work if you remove Assignment?
Try that.

Reg F-32 to clear the Customer Account Balances

Dear experts,

Pl help me by providing some inputs on that. Also help me by suggesting how i can do that.
tks in advance,
ram

i am also having same requirement.but the logic is becoming too complex because single document number for clearing the open items.for a customer we can have n number of invoices and n number of payments.based on the base line date,assignment and xref3.
18.05.2010   DZ 2000
18.05.2010   DR 1000
18.05.2010   DR   200
20.05.2010   DZ 2000
20.05.2010   DR 1000
20.05.2010 DR      200
now we are creating 2 documents for 18.05.2010 and 20.05.2010 .but customer expects to create single document or both.
then we have to handle table control.page down and page up.
is the process folowing is correct or we have to create individual documents or single document

Need info on Automated Clearing of Customer Receivables - SAP

Dear Experts,
Our client wants to pursue Automated Cash application for European Company codes.
We want to suggest which is the best Cash Application in SAP for Automated Clearing of Customer Receivables with a bank file in Europe.
Currently, we are using Automated Cash application (Lockbox) for US company codes/banks. Also, can the same lockbox program used
for US be used for EU as well? If yes, What all changes might be needed.
Your inputs are highly appreciated.
PS: Our SAP version is 4.6C.
Thanks & Regards,
Jagan

Hi Jagan,
Lockbox functionality is used in USA and Canada only, hence the same can't be used for European countries.
As per my understanding, EBS functionality can be used for Automated Cash application for EU.
Let me know in case of any other issue.

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

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.

Clearing with customer & Vendor

I have customer who is vendor and vendor who is customer.I have assigned customer no in vendor master and vice versa. I forgot to click the indication Clearing with cust/vend. I have posted the TRansactions now i Have ticked the Clearing with cust/ Vend.
How to i Set off line item with cust and vendor .
One more thing is in f-32 clear customer we can clear clearing doc. or we can clear open item also and sett off customer and vendor.
As per my knowledge if u do partial payment then my orginal Invoice wil show as open item and one more line item wil b generated with clearing document M I right? Is there any setting in ECC 6. through which partial payment will directly get cleared.
plz need some input regardin clearing doucment
I have tried but unable to come to conclusion
thanks thanks a lot
Regards
Anamika

Anamika
The whole logic of having a partial item is that the open item will remain open until the whole amount is paid. There is no meaning in clearing it completely when there is a partial clearing. For the customer clearing, you select other accounts, select the vendor account and the account type K and clear the open items. Let me know if it helped.

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.
Regards,
Sridhar

Automatic Clearing of customer open items during FEBP

Hello All
I have a requirement whereby the customer open items need to be cleared using the XBELNR field reference. The bank statement is in FINSTA format. There are legacy invoice numbers which also come in through the statement.
We don't want to do manual post processing through FEBa/FEBAN.
Is there any way out for this scenario?
Thanks and Regards

Hi
Just run FEBP as a nightjob after the Finsta have been imported, and create one variant per company code. I works perfect for us.
If you provide me with you email, I can send you a dump screen of our variants.
