Different Distribution Rule on Outgoing Payment cannot be split on Journal

Hi All,
I created an Outgoing Payment for Vendor for several invoices. Each invoice was assigned to different Distribution Rule. But the journal created summarized all the invoices (only one row for debit AP), and no distribution rule was assigned. Is this a bug? Anybody ever experienced the same problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Marini

Hi Gordon,
I am working with version 2007 A PL 42.
I found that Distribution Rule on Outgoing Payment is for Discount purpose. When we fill Discount then it will be posted to Discount Account with Distribution Rule defined.
Thanks,
Marini

  • Distribution rules in Incoming payment and Outgoing payment

    Hi,
    Did anyone know the purpose of having distribution rules in all the outstanding invoices in both Incoming and Outgoing payment.
    I try to attach the distribution rules to specific invoice and post incoming payment but it did not appear in the bank journal entry row.
    I also try to attach profit center in AR Invoice row but after posting and do Incoming payment, the distribution rules also never show for that particular invoice.
    Really wonder how the distribution rule works?

    Hi Thomas,
    From the SAP help, you can know what is the use of this rule.
    Defining Distribution Rules
    Use
    For cost accounting, this setting is mandatory.
    Use this procedure to define distribution rules to distribute amounts between different profit centers.
    Prerequisites
    You have defined profit centers.
    Note: If you delete a distribution rule for one profit center (100%) this does not automatically delete the profit center.

  • Distribution Rule in Incoming Payment of Invoice

    Hello Experts,
    I'm running SAP B1 8.81 PL05 and I have the following problem.
    I issue an A/R Invoice + Payment  and I have in the "Payment Means" a discount. The final result is an issue of two different journal entries - one for the invoice and another for the payment discount.
    The problem is that I want to have a Distribution Rule associated with the Incoming Payment discount and I can't find a way to associate it - the solution of associating a distribution rule to the account is not possible because the Distribution Rule changes according to the sales employee.
    Help would be very appreciated.

  • Different LC amount for same exchange rate at Incoming & Outgoing payment

    Hi
    I have created an incoming and outgoing payment separately. One of the amount is the same between Incoming and Outgoing payment with same currency and same exchange rate, but system generated LC amount with a rounding difference of SGD 0.01. Example, in incoming payment, the double entry is:
    Dr AP/AR Contra account   USD $ 294,318.00     __*SGD $ 442,065.64*__
    Cr Customer          USD $ 294,318.00          SGD $ 440,289.64
    Cr Exchange Gain/Loss                    SGD $     1,776.00
    For outgoing payment, if the exchange is the same as 1.512, the system generated double entry below:
    Dr  Supplier              USD $ 864,624.53    SGD $ 1,271,084.52
    Dr Exchange Gain/Loss                             SGD $      27,581.52
    Cr Cash At Bank          USD $ 570,306.53     SGD $ 856,600.41
    Cr AR/AP Contra A/C          USD $ 294,318.00     __*SGD $ 442,065.63*__
    As you can see from the sample above, AP/AR Contra account is generated as 442,065.64 in Incoming payment whereas for the same rate and same posting date, the system generated different LC amount in Outgoing payment to 442,065.63, there is a 0.01 difference.
    Why is that so? Why same exchange rate and FC amount will resulted in different SGD amount? Anybody know whether there is any workaround to solve this problem? Thanks.

    Hi Gordon,
    I don't really get what you mean. I have tried on my own database and it doesn't happen even though patch level, decimal places and document settings are the same. But it just happen on customer database with exactly the same transactions. So not sure how SAP calculate the amount. Thanks.

  • Bank Charge for Outgoing payment. Any workaround

    Hi,
    Has anyone develop solution for the Bank Charges in Outgoing payment ?
    Under Incoming Payment, there is a bank charge field which is will post together with the amount received from customer.
    We would like to have the same function in Outgoing Payment and automatically post in Journals. How can SDK help ?

    Hi ,
    Try this work around for bank charges involved while making payments.
    Example
    Amount due to supplier-10000
    Bank charges - 100
    Total payment - 10100
    1)Go to outgoing payment screen/type the vendor and select the invoice of 10000.
    2)Go to payment means and against bank column enter 10100
    3)In payment means in row two type bank charges for 100
    The system will throw an error saying bank charges is not cash account.still u can post the entry.
    The accounting entry will be
    Supplier a/c Debit - 10000
    To bank a/c Credit -10100
    To Bank charges a/c credit - (100)
    (instead of debiting bank charge expenses it is crediting the charges in negative figure / impact is same)

  • Copying Comments from Outgoing Payments form to its checks for payment

    Hi!, is there a way to pass the comments from the Outgoing Payments to the comments of the check for payment of the same outgoing payment?
    We want to see in the checks for payments comments field, the same comment from the outgoing payment which the check was originated.
    Thank you!

    If you are talking about bringing the Outgoing Payment comments to the Check Journal Remarks field, you could do it using a formatted search.  Save the following SQL and link the query to the Journal Remarks field
    SELECT T0.Comments FROM [dbo].[OVPM] T0 WHERE T0.DocNum = $[OCHO.TransRef]

  • Selection of Distribution Rule in Incoming and Outgoing Payment

    There is an option of selecting the distribution rule in Incoming and Outgoing Payment having transaction of Account type but the requirement is of having the selection of distribution rule having transaction of Customer and Vendor (Invoice wise and Payment on Account)

    What is the purpose for distribution rules in Outstanding invoice list in incoming payment? I try to attach the analysis there and post incoming payment but it will not appear in Journal entries which defeat the main purpose.
    The problem face by customer is that they had many outlets and finance department in HQ needs to monitor daily collection from each outlets.
    The desired outcome by customer is:
    Dr Bank  [profit center=Outlet A]   XXX
    Cr     Customer                                   XXX
    Eventually print out reports in XLR as
                                     Outlet A     Outlet B    Outlet C

  • Outgoing payment post different LC amount for same exchange rate as AP INV

    Hi All,
    I have this entry in my out going payments linked to a AP down payment that I cannot explain. This is a foreign currency transaction
    1. AP down payment
         FC
         USD 381,000 @ document exchange rate of .931277
         LC
         AUD 409115.66
    2. outgoing payment
         FC
         USD 381,000 @ document exchange rate of .931277
         LC
         AUD 448,235.29
         Although the outgoing payment document exchange rate is same as AP down payment , SAP has applied rate from exchange rate table (@.85)
    as a result LC amount is different and its created an exchange gain/loss entry. Any idea why this happen?
    Other info
    on payment means screen all transactions in USD and payment is NOT on account.
    Thanks

  • AIAB Distribution Rule for Settlement Error, "Asset cannot settle to itself"

    Hello Everyone,
    I have a customer who is getting the "asset cannot settle to itself" error when trying to set up a distribution rule to settle the remaining items of a Line Item Managed AUC to multiple Assets.  The Asset numbers and AUC number do NOT match.  Here are the steps that have been followed.
    Created an Internal Order, #2000####. (1998)
    Created the AuC asset. #600####(2011)
    Created Settlement Rule (Sender – Internal Order, Receiver - AUC) (2011
    Settle Internal Order to AUC.
    Create Assets. (2014). #900###1 - #900##99 etc.
    Create Settlement Rule (Sender – AUC, Receiver – Multiple Assets)  This is where my customer gets the error. 
    They were able to settle other items from this AuC to Assets last October.  It seems very strange to me that the Internal Order was created in 1998 and the AUC was created in 2011 but as I said, this was working at least last October and possibly in March of this year. 
    Thanks for you help.
    Rick 

    Hello Stacy, 
     Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner but I just had a major implementation go live on the 2nd so I've been rather busy.  I opened a ticket with SAP on this and this is what was found.   
    Joachim from SAP Support explained that the AUC had been settled to itself last year, that is the posting the program was throwing the error on.  My assumption is that we were able to settle AUC's to themselves prior to our March upgrade.  This explains the problem and we have a resolution.  We are transferring AUCs that this has happened with to a new AUC and then settling the new AUC as usual.  
    I believe SAP fixed a bug that had previously allowed AUC's to settle to themselves in one of the updates but because this AUC had a record from the past where it settled to itself the program was validating old line items and that is why it throws the error.   
    Ramnik's suggestion was another option but we didn't want to change the message to a warning because we didn't want anyone to settle an asset to itself.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Rick

  • Different no range/doc. type for cash journal incoming/outgoing payment

    Hi all,
    I am going to set up cash journal for a customer and they want separate number range for incoming and outgoing payments.
    I have read on this forum and actually don´t understand if that´s possible.
    If I set up two different cash journals (one for outgoing payments and one for incoming payments) the problem is that I can call all transaction type (C, B, R, E, set in transaction FBCJC2) from both. I have a cash journal for outgoing payments where I have set a separate document type and number range for G/L accounts in transaction FBCJC0 and the same for vendor outgoing payment and customer outgoing payment, but no document type for incoming payments from vendor/customer.
    When I then start to use this cash journal for outgoing payments I can´t make outgoing payments if I don´t have any money in my cash journal. Then I have to take money from my housebank by business transaction type C (receipt from bank) set in transaction FBCJC2. This becomes an incoming payment, but I got the same number range as for outgoing payments because I am in that cash journal and that number range is set per G/L account transaction per cash journal. .
    How can I come around this problem?
    Thanks in advance!
    Best regards Lisa

    Hi Pravin,
    Sorry for late answer. I created three document types, one for customer, one for vendor and a third for G/L postings. It was not possible to do in another way, sorry.

  • Cannot View Doc from Outgoing Payment under Approval Procedure messages

    Hi Experts,
    Both Originator and the approver cannot view the some of the pending and rejected documents when they are trying to edit the docuemtns from the approval procedures messages and approval decision reports.
    In effect, the approval cannot approvbed the documents as he cannot check the document for approval. The documents can be viewed from the payment draft dopcument. It will be tedious for the approval to go back and forth to draft document and approval decesion report.
    I already check the authorization for outgoing payment they both have full authorization. I can view the document as a super user. I need to know what other authorization do I need to check
    Both originator and  approver has full acess on outgoing payment since some of the documents can be viewed som3 documents cannot bew viewed.

  • How to set a different PLD for checks payment vs. outgoing payments?

    Hi Experts,
    Is there a way to configure B1 to use one PLD for checks that originate from the 'Checks for Payment' window/process and another for checks that originate from the 'Outgoing Payments' window/process? I see in our current configuration that they are sharing the same PLD and I would like to change that.
    Thanks!

    Hi Lang,
    If they are issued from the same bank, then it would be the same cheque stock that is used for printing which is why they use the same PLD template. Whether the payment is created through Outgoing Payments, Checks for Payment or Payment Wizard, the end result uses the same template if the same bank is used.
    If it's issued from different banks, you would select the applicable bank and could have different templates. In this case, the PLD template would be determined under Setup / House Bank Accounts.
    Hope that helps,
    Heather

  • Auto Assigned distribution rule to exchange gain/loss acct in Banking

    Hi All,
    I have a customer that have this requirement. They wanted the exchange gain/loss account generated by Incoming payment or Outgoing payment to be auto assign with profit center if it is defined at the payment screen.
    The result now is, even though you have assign the distribution rule on each reconciled invoice during payment, double entries generated will not have any distribution rule assigned even though it involve exchange gain/loss that is P&L account.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    MH

    Hi Kamlesh,
    Thanks for the reply. However, we can't assigned the distribution rule at Chart of account as the incoming or outgoing payment may involve different division each time thus the exchange gain/loss account should be assign to respective division. Thanks.

  • Outgoing Payment - Credit Card

    Hi All,
    We have a company credit card. With this card, we may pay say 5 different vendors.
    Since I cannot find a kind of "deposit" function for outgoing payments, I am thinking of this:
    1. Create a "credit card prepayment" GL account in Assets
    2. Do all 5 outgoing payments from this GL account (ignoring error message about cash flow report)
    3. When we get the credit card statement to pay each month, doing another outgoing payment from my bank account to the "credit card prepayment" GL account
    4. Manually internally reconcile "credit card prepayment account" GL
    Can anyone suggest a better way, or does this look ok? The error with cash flow report is odd, as on one hand the amount of money has been paid, but on the other, is still owed to credit card company.
    Thanks!
    Rajiv

    If there is a way to use an interim GL account similar to "cheque clearing a/c" for incoming payments, but for outgoing payments, then of course that is perfect!
    We are trying to do the same thing but manually (it makes external bank reconciliation easier, as only 1 entry for payment to ccard company as per bank statement).
    I tried to go to:
    Banking->Outgoing Payments->Outgoing Payments->select Vendor/GL, tick amt, then click money bag, then Bank Transfer tab.
    However, I do not see an option for interim GL account? I can see how to set this up as you suggested, but we wish to make payments manually each time and not using the Payment Wizard. Is there another way of utilizing this deature?
    Thanks again,
    Rajiv
