Direct posting to a Vendor or Customer Reconciliation GL Account

I need to make direct posting to a Vendor or Customer Reconciliaton GL Account.

What is the transaction?
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Hi naresh,
For each subledger account , you must keep at least one reconciliation account in the general ledger. When you post to an account in the subledger, the system automatically posts to the corresponding reconciliation account.
The "Receivables from goods and services" account is an example of a reconciliation account for customers. Enter Customer in the Reconciliation account for account type field. Enter a Vendor in this field for a vendor reconciliation account.
Using the reconciliation account procedure, it is possible to create a balance sheet and a profit and loss statement at any time, since the amounts posted to subledger accounts are also posted automatically in the general ledger.
You define reconciliation accounts by specifying in the G/L account master record the account type (such as fixed assets, vendor or customer) for which the account is to be used. In this way, the account can only be assigned to accounts in the corresponding subledger. You set the assignment of the subledger account to a reconciliation account in the master record of the subledger account. You cannot post to reconciliation accounts manually .
Hope this helps. please assign points and close the thread.

Post Directly To Customer Reconciliation Account

Dear Experts,
We are facing the following problem in one of our Clients system.
They have uploaded the opening balance in a Customer Reconciliation GL Account ( Its an alternate reconciliation account ), here onwards reffered to as XYZ.
Now after 6 months of Go-Live they realized that the opening balance was uploaded incorrectly.
Their original entry was like this:
Dr. XYZ 100
Cr. Data Migration GL 100
When the try to reverse the above entry they get the following error: "Account XYZ in company code ABCD cannot be directly posted to" Message No: F5354
Now i have two questions ( Disclaimer: These questions might sound very silly, but trust me I am seriously lost here. )
1. How was this entry posted in the first place? I have checked the change logs for GL XYZ, no data exists that shows that the reconciliation indicator has been changed. The reconciliation Indicator is customer from beginning.
2. How to reverse the above entry?
Any usefull suggestions will be generously rewarded.
Regards,
Priyank.

Dear All,
I am sorry for replying so late to this Thread.
We found the root cause of the problem. Some one has changed the Table Entries (SKB1-MITKZ) for the GL Master of Customer Reconciliation Account. This was the reason that the GL account was showing as Customer Reconciliation Account.
Now when we tried to reverse these changes the system didnt allow us as it needed some entry in that field and keeoing it blank was not an option. Even the input help didnt show any blank field.
So in order to overcome the above shortcoming, we wrote an ABAP program to change the field value to Blank.
So learning is that you should never use Table Edit without having proper knowledge of how Tables behave.
Thanks all for your Support.
Am Closing the thred.
Good Bye.

Direct posting of G/L account is not allowed at PO level.

Hi,
Procurement of Consumables thru Maintenance Order (for Breakdown Maintenance):
1. Generation of Purchase Requisition thru maintenance order .
2. Purchase Order from purchase requisition
3. MIGO
4. MIRO
The required consumables are assigned in maintenance order. when converting PR to PO this consumables will automatically flow. According to the valuation class and gl account in material master GL account will also flow automatically.
When converting PR to PO the system throws an error saying that Direct posting is not possible for the G/L account.
I made this GL account as post automatically to ensure that there should be no manual postings for such automatic account determinated GL accounts thru valuation class.
This error can be resolved by removing the tick mark post automatically but is this correct. If it is so then what is the implication of automatic a/c assignment thru valuation class.
Please guide
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Sam

Dear Sir,
We have added the Consumables (Diesel) in Components tab with Item category N. So, it has triggered a PR from MO. As you know account assignment category is ORDER (F) only.
Also, they have resolved the problem. Problem was with the G/L account Master data.
Thanx a lot

Dispatch Instructions for Direct Supply from Vendor to Customer.

Dear Experts,
Our Company is Project Industry. We have implmented SAP ECC 6.0 in 2008 with SD, FI, MM, PP, QM, PS, DMS modules.
In our case 70% Deliveries to customer are from direct dispatch from our vendor to Client. Steps are as follows.
1. Buyer issues PO to vendor for direct dispatch to customer. After readiness of material vendor gives Inspection call to Buyer.
2. Buyer creates inspection notification using T-code QM01.
3. Quality department visit the vendors place, inspect the material & clears the inspection notification.
4. After acceptance of material, Project Execution issues Dispatch instructions to vendor with PO No. & Item details. This is Outside SAP in MS word.
5. Vendor Supplies the material to Customer based on dispatch instructions.l
6. After receipt of dispatch document from vendor, Buyer creates Goods Receipt w.r.t. Purchase order in MIGO. We have Put ABAP check for GR creation to check Accepted Quantity of Inspection notification of that PO line item.
Now our Management wants to Implement above Step No. 4 of creation of dispatch instructions in SAP. At the time of creation dispatch instructions, system shall check if inspection notification is created & allow the creation for accepted PO line item quantity in the notification & only after the inspection notification is closed in SAP . Dispatch instructions should have information such as PO No., Line item no., Material Code, Material Description & quantity to be dispatch, Vendor Name, Project Name.
As per my knowledge in Standard SAP Dispatch Instructions Process is not there.
Request you to give your valuable opinion.

dispatch instructions can be put into a long text at header or item level, just depends if they are item specific or apply to all items of the PO.
if you do this after the initial PO creation, then this is a PO change and you can print the PO changes as an extra message and send to your vendor.
checking if inspection notification is created has to be made via user exit.

In Vendor recon direct posting

My client wants to make direct posting to recon account of vendor what i know it is not possible. But still i want to know is there any way to make posting into the vendor recon.
Regards
Abhisekh

Hi it is not possible to post diretly to recon accounts. If system allows to post to recon accounts directly then there will not be any accuracy between the subledger balancesl and recon account balancesl. You try to educate the user that it is not a best practice that is the reason it is not allowed.
Thanks and regards,

Controlling Document Posting as per Vendor, Customer and GL

I want to know how do I control SA not being posted with
1. GL Dr
    Vendor Cr
Also, I dont want KR to be posted in a document containing,
2. GL Dr
    GL Cr
Similarly for Customer as well.
3. Customer Dr
    GL Cr
How do we control the respective Document Types not to be posted in other documents. I have already tried by unticking Vendor and Customer in SA Document Type. In KR, KZ I have unticked Customer and GL.
In DR, DZ I have unticked Vendor and GL.
While posting in F-02, SA Document type it doesnot allow Vendor or Customer. That works for me. But when I am posting F-02/FB60 for Vendor and GL, it doesnot allow GL. This is not I am expecting. I want system to raise error message when I post GL Dr and GL Cr with Document Type KR/KZ.
Please advice the correct method.

Define validation (OB28) as below :
Prerequisite:
T-code F-02, Document type : KR , Debit Credit Indicator : Debit
Check:Account type :GL
Message: Error/Warning : GL account not allowed as Credit line
Please refer these examples

FS00-Recon.Account - Direct Posting-How to know

Gurus,
In FS00, how do we know any account is allowed direct posting or not.
No direct posting means, recon account.
Scenario is - Depreciation run is notifying error saying
<b><i>11A Account 202050 is not a reconciliation account</i></b>
Please suggest solution.
Points available

Hi,
In GL master data we have a field of reconciliation account. we have to set that relevant recon for that field ( ex customer, vendor /asset) based on what recon is that GL account. So we cannot post directly to that particular account when it is set as recon. customer reconciliation accounts gets posted automatically when you Dr/Cr the customer Similarly vendor and assets
Post automatically check box is used for those accounts which automatically gets posted example GR/IR account which is used in account determination for posting of Goods issue.
Assign points if useful

Employee should be treated as Vendor or Customer?

Hello,
Employee should be treated as Vendor or Customer?
Loan payment and advance given....how can we handel it????
Thanks

Hi Pari,
In Conpany's point of view, all Employees should be treated as Vendors.
Loan Payment and Advances sould be treated as Other Special GL Transactions for Vendors.
Steps to be followed:
1. Define Alternative Reconciliation Account for Vendors (Here Employees)
Path: IMG/FA/ARAP/Business Transactions/Postings with Alternative Reconciliation Account/Other Special GL Transactions/Define Alternative Reconciliation Account for Vendors
Here you can create Special GL indicator for Loan Payment or Advances: Click Create (F6) and create special GL indicator (L) for Loan to Employees and save the data
DC on the Special GL indicator: L - Loan payment
Here give the following inputs:
In Recon.acct: Give Recon A/c for Vendors (Employees) (B/S A/c - Liability Group) Ex. A/c No.1000
In Special GL account: Give Alternative Recon. A/c to Employees i.e. Loan to Employee A/c (Create this a/c in FS00). (B/S A/c - Assets group). Ex. A/c No. 3000
2. Go to F-02 and post the entry.
Entry will be:
Employee A/c Dr
To Bank A/c
Entries in General Ledger View:
Alternative Recon. A/c for Employee A/c Dr. (In our example: A/c No. 3000)
To Bank A/c
Note: If you want to deduct TDS, then follow the same procedure for WT for Vendors for Payments.
In this case the journal entry will be:
Employee A/c Dr.
To Bank A/c
To Withholding Tax A/c
To Sur charge A/c (if any)
To Education Cess A/c (if any)
Hope this helps you.

Posting Loan to Vendor Employee

Dear Experts,
We're in 4.7. We have a requirement where we need to keep track of loan payment of all our individual employees. Is it possible to post the loan payment in payroll individually to each and every corresponding vendor employees ? Any input will surely be appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Arief

Hi
You can do the following.
1.Define your employees as vendors and attach the employee code to respective vendor.
2.Define Symbolic Accounts
In this step, you create the symbolic accounts that you require for posting to Accounting.
A symbolic account has the following characteristics:
A four-character alphanumberic code
A descriptive text
An account assignment type (AA type). This defines the type of posting (posting to expense account, posting to payables account, and so on) that applies to the wage types that are posted to the symbolic account.
An employee grouping for account determination (EG) indicator
The following table shows what kind of account and what transaction is linked to an account determination type and what additional information (for example, for cost assignment) is also included in the posting transaction.
AA type Meaning Transaction Additional fields
C posting to expense account HRC cost assignment
CN posting to expense account HRC cost assignment
without quantity   without quantity
R posting to expense account HRC
if accounting is installed in
R/2 System.
F posting to bal. sheet account HRF
FL posting to bal.sheet account HRF
for checking balance
in retroactive accounting
(recalculation difference account)
FO posting to bal. sheet account HRF
(original periods for
wage types whose amount
cannot change
retroactively)
Q posting to bal. sheet account HRF personnel number
with personnel number
D posting to personal   HRD acc. determination
customer accounts   with personnel number
DF posting to fixed customer HRD direct assignment
    of customer account
L posting to customer HRD acc. determination
account(for specific loan)   with personnel number
    loan type,
    sequential number
K posting to personal vendor accounts HRK acc. determination with
    personnel number
KF posting to fixed vendor HRK direct assignment
acc.   of vendor account
Note the following with regard to account assignment types:
In the standard system, no quantities are transferred from wage types in the payroll result to the payroll documents and the resulting accounting documents, although information on quantities is available on the report log for report RPCIPE00 (or RPCIPX00). It is also possible to modify the system to access this information. The account assignment type CN is only useful if you have made this modification and if, in certain instances, you want to suppress the transfer of quantity information.
The account assignment types FL und FO are only of use if there are cross-company code transactions. For more information on customizing cross-company code transactions, refer to Posting to Company Code Clearing Accounts.
We recommend that for symbolic accounts with account type FO, you determine the account in Accounting independent of the Employee grouping for account determination (Feature PPMOD). For this reason, only one G/L account is provided for the payment of wages and salaries as standard. If you determine this G/L account depending on the employee grouping for the account determination, this can lead to inconsistencies when posting the retroactive accounting results. This is due to the fact that when posting retroactive accounting results for wage types that cannot change retroactively, a technical posting takes place (for example, for the wage type Payments (/559)). Since this technical posting usually takes place in the same account in Accounting, it balances to zero and does not appear in the posting document. However, if you determine this account independently of the employee grouping for account determination, and an employee falls in a different employee grouping due to a retroactive change in the HR master data or feature PPMOD, the technical posting cannot balance to zero because two accounts are affected in Accounting. This is why you have to make changes manually in this case.
Example
The wage types Basic pay and Overtime both represent personnel costs and should therefore be posted to expense accounts. You also want to assign these wage type amounts to Cost Accounting objects. Both wage types are dealt with in the same way as far as posting is concerned and can therefore be posted to the same symbolic account. You must specify the account assignment type C, since, in Accounting, there should be a posting to expense accounts and Cost Accounting should be provided with information.
Requirements
You have carried out the step Define Employee Grouping for Account Determination
Standard settings
Symbolic accounts are already set up in the standard system. In this step, you can modify these to meet your requirements.
Recommendation
We recommend that you do not change the definition of the symbolic accounts. If changes to the definition of the symbolic accounts are necessary, you should map the changes using new symbolic accounts.
Activities
1. Check that the existing symbolic accounts meet your requirements. Note the EG indicator. If this indicator is set for an account, posting to this account also considers employee grouping for account determination. With the exception of the key (column SymAcc), you can change the default values.
2. To create additional symbolic accounts, choose New entries
3. To delete unnecessary symbolic accounts, mark the account and choose Edit -> Delete.
Further notes
Symbolic accounts are not country-specific.
3.Assign Vendor Accounts
In this step, you make the settings required for posting to vendor accounts.
There are two kinds of vendor accounts available:
Fixed vendor accounts: Employee grouping for account determination offers the most precise means of control for posting to fixed vendor accounts.
Employee vendor accounts: Posting to employee vendor accounts enables posting for a specific personnel number.
In this step, you make entries in table T030 for the assignment of vendor accounts to symbolic accounts.
Example
Fixed vendor account
You want to deduct dues to various unions from the employees in your enterprise. For each union, you have set up a specific wage type for dues and a specific symbolic account. In this step, you assign a fixed vendor account to each of these symbolic accounts.
Employee vendor account
You want to post dues to a different vendor account for each employee. To this effect, you have created a symbolic account for all employees. In this step, you specify how the corresponding employee vendor accounts are determined.
Requirements
You have created the required vendor accounts in Financial Accounting.
You have carried out the step Define Symbolic Accounts. In that step, you created symbolic accounts with the relevant account assignment types (KF for fixed vendor accounts, K for personal vendor accounts). In that same step, you flagged the indicator EG-depend for symbolic accounts to which you want to post in line with the Employee grouping for account determination.
If you want to post to employee vendor accounts, you have entered the relevant personnel number in one of the following fields in the vendor master data of Financial Accounting. We recommend that you use the Personnel number field. If you use another field, you must enter the personnel number with leading zeros.
Personnel number
Search term
Telephone 2
Data line
Teletext number
Standard settings
There are no standard settings for posting to vendor accounts. If, in the step Define Symbolic Accounts, you have not created any symbolic accounts with the account types KF or K, you do not have to carry out the step Assign Vendor Accounts.
Activities
1. Enter the required chart of accounts.
2. To make settings for the posting procedure Personnel posting to vendors (HRK), choose Rules
3. Choose Posting key. Enter the posting key for postings to vendor accounts or copy the default values (21 for debit posting and 31 for credit postings).
4. Choose Accounts. Make the corresponding entries in the table T030.
a) If you want to assign a fixed vendor account to a symbolic account, and if required, an employee grouping, enter the number of the vendor account in the Acco column.
b) If you want to assign an employee vendor account to a symbolic account, and, if required a employee grouping, enter the relevant key (see table below) in the Acco column.
Personnel number in field (Vendor master data) Entry in the Account column (T030)
Personnel number    *0002
Search term    *0001
Telephone 2    *0003
Data line    *0004
Teletext number    *0005
Further notes
It is not possible to use the special G/L indicator with posting to customer accounts.
in summary whatyou do is defne a symbolic account of type K , link your wage type to this sym account , define the posting to vendor with *0002

Create items by vendor and customer on Foreign Currency Valuation

When we execute Foreign Currency Valuation, we would like to create items in a document by vendor and customer.
Can we handle it a 'Corp.group-vendors' flag(Evaluate Accounts According to Group Definition) ?
Can you help with this issue please?
Thanks,
Sato.Ishikawa

HI,
With the report SAPF100, you will be able to valuate foreign currencies
from customer and vendor accounts.
It is not possible to post a foreign currency valuation directly to a
vendor or customer account. This is only possible for g/l accounts.
You can refer to the following workarounds:
From the technical point of view you can use FB01 to post such a posting
You have to enter a exchange rate manually in the first screen. In this
case this exchange rate is used instead of the exhange rate of table
TCURR (transaction OB08).
You have to choose a exchange rate which transfer the amount in local
currency to 0,00 in foreign currency.Another possibility is to use
RFBIBL00 in transfer type direct input for FB01.An amount of 0 in
foreign currency should work.
The system is designed not to post documents with 0 amount in foreign
currency to vendors/customers.

Vandor directly dispatching the goods to the customer

Hi,
In Third party scenrio if vendor is directly dispatching the goods to the customer in that case will the MIGO and Delievry activty happen or not.please give me clearence on this point.

In Third party scenrio "if" vendor is directly dispatching the goods to the customer
First of all, in third party scenario, the question of "if" itself does not arise because vendor only will despatch directly to customer.
Secondly, please search the forum before posting such questions.

Direct Posting to Contracts and Business roles in SRM

Hi guys,
We have SRM 7 and ECC 6.0.
Please consider the following business scenario:
Invoice creation in SRM against ERP contract that has been previously replicated to SRM;
No PO or GR involved in this process;
Possibility to have one contract to vendor A, and the corresponding invoices for different vendors.
Considering this we thought about the following solution:
Activate Direct Posting to Contracts functionality in ERP;
Contract, supplier and materials / services replication to SRM, through PI;
Allow different partners in the contract, using partner role “Invoicing party” (RS), so that it would be possible to post an invoice to vendor B, with reference to a contract with vendor A.
Questions:
Reporting – as far as I know it’s only possible to run analyses for vendors, which in our case would be vendor A, assigned to the contract. However, we will need to have information about the invoices posted to the other business partners that are assigned to that contract. Do you have any idea if there is any standard approach for this?
Contract and business roles replication to SRM – does the contract and the assigned business roles could be replicated to SRM or is it required any specific customizing in SRM for this to be possible?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
AN

Hi,
For direct posting to G/L in MIRO, follow the path:
SPRO > Materials Management > Logistics Invoice Verification > Incoming Invoice > Activate Direct Posting to G/L Accounts and Material Accounts > Here Activate "Dir.posting to G/L acct = active" and save.
MIRO - It will show additional Tab as "GL Account" along with "Reference"
