could u please advise how to transfer the balance ( line item wise ) to the new recon account 300000.
Here is the official SAP help on the subject:-
Hello,
You should run balance sheet adjustment program after any reconciliation account change.
The system performs any adjustments required due to the change of reconciliation accounts or G/L accounts. The items from the old reconciliation accounts are allocated to the new accounts. Since you cannot post to the reconciliation accounts directly, the postings are made to temporary adjustment accounts.
These adjustment accounts should be displayed along with the relevant reconciliation account in the balance sheet. The postings are then reversed after the balance sheet has been created. The program for sorting the payables and receivables makes the necessary adjustments automatically. This means that you have to define the adjustment account numbers and the posting keys for these postings in the system. On the balance sheet key date the open items from the old reconciliation account are allocated to the new reconciliation account using adjustment accounts. This allocation is carried out automatically when you create a sorted list of receivables and payables using report SAPF101.
You should only run this program if your new reconciliation account is classified differently from the original in your FS. e.g.. AR to Intercompany accounts. It will just reclassify the existing balance. The line items will not be transferred. If not then no need to run the program at all.

hi all,
recently we created a customor and assigned a recon account to it in master data, but later it was found that the recon account assigned to it was incorrect.
couple of things that came up to my mind when this change in recon account was to be made.
1. what happens to all the entries already made to this vendor account
2. any implication on the open items.
kindly help on this
Regards
Arvind KumarHi
You may change your recon account at any time.
Just find the comments of SAP on this--
On the balance sheet key date the open items from the old reconciliation account are allocated to the new reconciliation account using adjustment accounts. This allocation is carried out automatically when you create a sorted list of receivables and payables using report SAPF101.
So no need to transfer any balances from old recon account to new recon account, you may test this on your testing system first if any issue.You can post invoices with one recon account and then change the recon account and do your required trnsaction to test your queries.
Any open items can be cleared as it is and it will not give any error of recon account as well.

Hello Friends,
Our client had a requirement of changing the recon account for customer.
Customer A (recon account 100) already had line items posted from last 2 years, these line items are cleared also.
Now business wants the recon account for this customer A to be G/L#200. Along with that the reporting in balance sheet for this customer is required to be in recon GL 200.
In order to achieve this we did the following:
1. We made the balance of the customer account zero by transfereing the balance to temperory GL account. (Accounting document # 1200001 created)
2. Changed the recon account in customer master from 100 to 200.
3. Made reversal entry, i.e., transfered the balance from temperory GL account to customer account. (Accounting document # 1200002 created)
4. In balance sheet now the balance is transfered to recon account 200.
But now there is a problem, the customer statement has two open items (documents 1200001 & 1200002) when we are clearing these open items in the customer the impact created earlier with step 3 is getting reversed i.e., the balance from recon account 200 is getting nullified and its going back to recon account 100.
We just want to clear the customer open item how can we do this?
Please suggest.

Vendor Downpayment with Alternative Recon Account
Dear All,
Could we change the recon account while doing the down payments vendor/customer.
Is there any why please replay me.
RegardsHi,
Make the necessary configuration in the Tcode FBKP - Special GL indicator- Vendor Downpayment.
You have to maintain the Alternate GL account against the Normal Vendor Reconciliation Account.
When u insert this Special GL while making vendor downpayment, the system will pick the Alternate Recon account maintained against Reconciliation of the Vendor Master in the Tcode FBKP. -
ITEM GROUP NEEDS TO BE SET UP WITH BALANCE SHEET ACCOUNT
I am trying to set up an Item so that I can charge it to a Balance Sheet account but the Item Group will not let me do this as it only allows me to charge it to either an Expense or Revenue account. Is there a way to correct this or change the current Revenue account it is being charged to a Balance Sheet account on the row level?
Hi Frank,
The reason why in some fields you can only have a certain account type is to avoid descrepancies and wrong accounting. They have been set up that way to allow the document flow in business one to create the correct entries.
Please consider that a revenue account will only be posted to once in this flow, there will be no debit balancing the credit in any target document. The same is true for the expenses.
Other accounts (Balance sheet accounts) like the allocation cost account will be balanced by the target document, the same is true for the BP Control account, it will be balanced by the payment.
The balances posted to the P&L accounts will remain there unless they are manually balanced or reversed by a credit note.
I hope it makes some sense.

RE:Recon account change in MIRO
Dear All,
we one requirement for reconciliation account changes while doing the MIRO.
Is it possible to change the recon account?
If it is possible please replay.
regards,Hi Sai,
There is one option available to change the reconicliation account while posting transactions to vendor accounts (having the same reconciliation account).
1. You need to map the alternate reconciliation for the reconciliation account maintained in the vendor master - this is IMG activity. I don't know the path for this configuration please check.
2. And for the reconciliation accounts you need to activate the reconciliation account ready for input check box in Create/bank/interest tab of GL Master.
If you do these activities the vendor accounts having this reconicliation account can be changed at the time of transaction posting via MIRO / FB60 / etc., This is no specific to one vendor.

Create cart with balance sheet account
Currently, our users create a shopping cart using a cost center or WBS element. However, our Finance department would like the ability to use a balance sheet account (prepaid expense) instead. Is this possible? If so, what would need to be done on the SRM side as well as the SAP side since we use the classic scenario.
We are on SRM 4.0.
Monique StephensThe business requirement is to charge something to a balance sheet account, not cost center or WBS element. Based on our current security, users are unable to use the balance sheet accounts with their cost centers.
I tried using a balance sheet account with a cost center in our Dev box and received the following error message:
GL Account Cannot Be Used
Comparison of the field selection strings from the G/L account and the account assignment category K reveals that there is an incompatible combination of field selections for the field selection group 'Cost center'.
The G/L account field selection is stored in table T004F; that for the account assignment is stored in table T162K.
I'm not exactly sure how to correct for this message. -

How to transfer balance of one Recon. Account to another Recon.Account
Hi,
The scenario is that we want to change Reconciliation Account of all our vendors/customers. So we want to transfer the balance of old Recon Account to new Recon. Account.
How it would be possible?
Thanks&Regards,
Muralihi P. M. Dhar
You cannot post values directly from recon. account to another recon. account. On the other hand you cannot change the recon. account of a customer/vandor when the balance is not zero.
Therefor you have to go this way:
1. Create a technical vendor/customer with technical recon. account. (Technical means used only for this purpose).
2. Post all values from all customers/vendors to this Technical customer/vendor (i. e. all balances will be zero on all customer/vendor)
3. Change the recon. accounts of all customers/vendors
4. Post back all values from technical customer/vendor to real customers/vendors
Of course steps 2, 3 and 4 should be done by programs not manually.
I hope this helps

Customer master recon account field is disabled
Hello folks,
The recon account field in the customer master field is disabled, wouldn't allow me to enter the recon account.
Don't know how it happened. I was able to do that before, I have few customers with valid recon account. Even when I try to copy those customers, it wouldn't copy the recon account. Any ideas, greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony.Dear,
There could be two reasons.
1. Use transaction OBD2 and check the field of your customer group whether recon account field is not surpressed or display.
2. Use transaction OB20 and check the field status per activity.

change the master record of the above-mentioned account and mark it as a reconciliation account
change the customer or vendor master record and enter a different reconciliation account there
for special G/L transactions, change the allocation of reconciliation accounts when configuring special G/L transactions.

In customer master data Recon Account is Maintained properly

Vendor Reconciliation Account change issue

When i ran the FAGLF101, job successfully ended.
But no amount was transferred from old recon account to new recon account.
Please guide me on above issue.
SateeshKedar,
Thank you very much for your reply.
I done the changes said by you and got the entries in new adj. and old. adjust accounts.
Here i have a few questions.
1) While doing balance sheet preparation shall i have to use the old recon. along with new recon. account?
2) What is the actual use of adjustment account
3) We are using ECC 6.0, after running of FAGLF101, does we need to run any transaction for balance sheet updates.
Thanks in advance

Balance sheet accounts not updating in GLPCA / GLPCT
Hello,
I am working on MySAP 6.0 version and posting FI document giving profit center as an account assignment.
When I check the table entries in GLPCA and GLPCT I could see only P&L accounts updated in these tables but not the balance sheet accounts viz Bank Account.
To be more elaborate if my entry is as under
Dr Expense Account (PCA1) GLPCA / GLPCT (It is updated)
Cr Bank Account (PCA2) GLPCA / GLPCT (ignoring this line item)
However if I post a similar entry directly into PCA module these tables do get updated with balance sheet accounts.
Would anybody have any reasoning for this?HI
Originally till 4.7 SAP had only month end transaction to push many of balance sheet items to PCA only from the new versions it is having this online transfer usinf assignment of PCA to Gl accounts and then deriving PCA through splitting rules. Thats is why P7L items automatically flow however for balance sheet items especially creditors and debtors, bank and others it requires proper derivation.
Even in Balance sheet Asset will flow automatically

Hi Gurus,
I want to change Customer reconciliation account but this is not possible any more due to display option for reconciliation account in customizing.

Dear All
Balance in vendor recon account is not matching with the balance in subsidary ledger, the recons accounts inthe masters have been changed,how do i reconcile themHi Surya,
check f101 - tab parameter, flag Change recon acct.
f101 carries out postings or gives you a simple list to determine all the open items with changed recon accounts.
Best regards
