EBS - Error F5 263 (Diff is too large for clearing)

Helli Experts,
We are implementing SAP Electronic bank statement functionality. One of the requirements of the business is that of automatic clearing of customer open items after import of MT940.
We are using standard interpretation algorithm 001, but made use of an enhancement to clear the open items based on age of the open items rather than any reference given in Note to Payee details. That means if a customer has 4 overdue open items and paid the amount referring to the 3rd open item, system should rather clear the 1st open item which is overdue for more number of days than the 3rd open item. This has been made possible by activating the check box "Distribute by age" in FEBCL table through the standard enhancement option given by SAP.
As an extension of this requirement, if the customer pays off in lumpsum (in single payment) for the combination of first three open items, then the system should clear off those three open items leaving the fourth one as the open item. For instance first open item has the amount of $ 1000, 2nd one has $2000, 3rd one has $3000 and 4th one has $4000. Now if the customer pays $6000, system should clear the 1st, 2nd and 3rd open items automatically after loading the bank statement containing this payment of $6000. So, only the 4th one will be in open item status.
But when I load the bank statement, system is giving me an error message F5 263 (the difference is too large for clearing) in posting area 2. Posting area 1 is fine and document is successfully posted. Issue is there only in posting area 2. I believe system should be able to find the first three open items for the amount of $6000 based on the indicator of "Distribute by age". But this is not happening. If I try to reprocess the statement through FEBAN after I got this error message, then system is able to find the first three open items and then able to clear off. But wondering why it is not happening in transaction FF.5 automatically.
So, could you kindly let me know if I am missing something or is it a limiation in SAP that this scenario is not possible to achieve through EBS.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Experts,
Using standard BAdI the requirements could be solved. Thanks.

Currency "Difference is too large for clearing" when using t-code F-32

AR Business process is as follows: Invoices are issued. When payment is received, it is posted using F-26, with reference to customer but no specific invoice. F-32 is then used to match payments against invoices, and clear them. When trying to clear foreign currency customer items in local currency we receive error message F5263 "Difference is too large for clearing." We have set tolerance levels at the highest possible amount in OBA4. Please advise.

Error: (F5 263) The difference is too large for clearing in EBS

Hi
i was running FF_5 , i got the the below error.
Error: (F5 263) The difference is too large for clearing
The next detail screen i found that the Bank account posting gone correct but issues in subledger posting (there 27 errors in the table).
Can i have your inputs on this please.
Thanks for your help in advance.
regards
Raghu

Hello Shanid
You are absolutely correct. There were two line items in my outgoing bank (2 line items of Rs. 4000 each).
In my bank statement (electronic bank statement), there was only 1 line item of Rs.4000). So system gave this error (I checked in FEBAN).
My expectation was, system will read assignment field for the check number and it will consider only one line item of Rs.4000 where check number in bank statement is matching with assignment field.
Please let me know, how to achieve this.
Please note that, this is working fine in manual BRS.

EBS F5 263 - The difference is too large for clearing

Hi,
When I am trying to upload the bank file from FF_5, i am getting the error as "(F5 263) The difference is too large for clearing".
I have already gone through with posts related with the same error but didn't get the solution. I have checked OBA0, OBA3 and OBA4 and there is no problem in that.
Request you to please help me in resolving the same.
Thanks & Regards,
Neeraj

Have you successfully uploaded the bank statement before? Are you newly implementing the electronic bank statement? Are you getting this message for "all" the items in the bank file or one particular item? If for one item make sure that the amount of the open item is equivalent to the item in the file. In FEBA (Bank Statement Subsequent Processing), when you attempt to manually post the item, is the system finding mutiple items for the same amount? If multiples are found then you must select the individual item.

F5 263 (Difference too large for clearing)

Hi ,
Can any one help us please.
when we tried to upload a bank statement MT940 its giving out a error as "F5 263 (Difference too large for clearing)". We checked out whether there are open items or not, and found that open items are there but still the system is behaving in this way suddenly for the past one week. Before that it was working well.
Thanks and Regards
Sri

Hi
We are getting the same error at the same point for a different reason.
We have a vendor line item which is required to be cleared automatically when the EBS is uploaded on the basis of the document number which will be provided by bank in MT940. At that time, the entry shall be Vendor Debit to Bank Credit. We are not carrying out the automatic payment run. Hence no bank clearing account is involved.
Now to achieve above scenario, while defining posting rules in EBS settings, we have done following configuration,
1. Posting area as 2 "Sub ledger Accounting"
2. Posting type is selected as 7 " Clear deb.subledg.ac"
To clear vendor directly, system goes to T code FB05, when we execute FF_5 for uploading the bank statement. However in FB05, the account type considered is 'D' by default. Since we have a posting related to vendor, we want account type to be selected as K.
Can anyone let me know how we can pass account type K while uploading the bank statement or is there any other method for clearing vendor directly when EBS is uploaded?
Thanks & Regards

EXEC SQL Error: ORA-01401: Inserted value too large for column

Getting this SQL Error: ORA-01401: Inserted value too large for column..on an EXEC SQL Insert statement when writing to an
external Oracle DB from SAP.
On further analysis..it appears that this happens to the fields..when the string length matches the field length.
Example: Plant field is defined as char(4) on the SAP side and it is a Varchar2(4) on the Oracle side.
When a value like '1015' is passed thru a variable in the insert statement then this ORA-01401 error pops up.
No error:
   - if the value '1015' is passed directly in the insert statement to the external table (or)
   - when a value with 3 chars or less(like the first three chars..101) is passed thru a variable defined as 'Plant(4) type c'.
   - when using EXEC sql within SAP
   - when reading from the external db table
This was working ok until the Oracle Patch P9147110 was installed recently.
Any suggestions !

Hello Dvas,
what's the characterset of your external database?
What's the column definition in your external database (byte or character based)?
If you use a characeterset like UTF8 it is possible, that one character needs more than one byte and then you will run into such kind of issues if the definition is too small.

Snapshot refresh error: ora-01401 inserted value too large for column

I have an error ora-01401 "Inserted value too large for column" when I try to do a refresh on a group at the materialized view site.
My model is 1 master replicating to a readonly materialized view site. I have 2 refresh groups for separate sets of tables. 1 refresh group work fine...the other I got the above error.
I have doubled the rbs and system tablespace without any help thinking that I must be running out of default rollback segment space.
Anyone has this before?

The error is related to a field, not to any tablespace. This normaly happens to me when I change the lenght or resolution of a field in the base tables. The structure changes don't "flow" to the materialized view! I must "regenerate" them. Normally droping and creating it again to make them receive the new lenght of that field.
Sometimes, when the field changed is not part of any primary key I have changes directly the field in the materialized view as if it was a normal table.
Hope this helps
Luis

EBS - The difference is too large for clearing

Hi,
While uploading Electronic bank statement in FF.5 i am getting the error " The difference is too large for clearing". How to solve the issue.
But while uploading the same in manual bank statement, i am getting the same error in FEBA but i can able to solve manually.
But i should not be solve manually for even electronic bank statements errors.
Please guide me
Sateesh Kumar

Do you have reviewed the tolerance level for differences at automatic clearing? You probably need to do the following:
- create a tolerance group for differences at clearing
- set accounts for posting differences
- assign GL account at master data level to the group you configured above...

Pls check the tolerance amounts limits:

Business transactions -Open item clearing--- Clearing differance---- Define / Assign tolerance groups for emp -
Where you need to change the limits of max amounts with the %
Let me know for any info.

T.Code: F-03 -The difference is too large for clearing

Hi,
When we try to clear G/L Account line item we are getting the error message is " The difference is too large for clearing"
And this GL Account is set for Open item & Line item management and company code currency CAD. But they have not cliked for only balances in local currency.
And When we click the error message we are getting the below description:
The difference is too large for clearing
Message no. F5 263
Diagnosis
A non-assigned difference exists for the specified clearing amount.
The difference for an automatic difference posting must not be greater than the difference permitted for the user, nor greater than the difference permitted for the tolerance group that is contained in the customer/vendor master record.
System Response
It is not possible to automatically charge off the difference.
Procedure
You can charge off the difference manually using the function "Clear differences". You define the upper limits for automatically clearing differences in the tolerance group assigned to the user.
Change tolerance groups for user
Can you please suggest us how to resolve this problem
Thanks in advance

Hello,
You need to check your settings for the company code involved concerning
clearing in local currency. You can find this setting within the
Implementation Guide under following path:
Financial Accounting
-> Financial Accounting Global Settings
-> Company Code
-> Enter Global Parameters. (transaction OBY6)
The field in question is called 'No exchange rate differences when
clearing in Local Currency' (V_001_B-XSLTA).
Please read the F1 help for this field and flag it.
When clearing an account (e.g. transactions FB1*, F-44 etc.) without
a new manual posting, the system always takes the current exchange
rate. If you want to enter the rate manually, you have to choose
the functionality 'posting with clearing' (e.g. FB05) and post the
difference as payment, credit memo or transfer posting.
I hope this helps.

Trx F-53, The difference is too large for clearing Message no. F5263

Hi,
I created a PO, then I posted the goods receipt, the invoice and I was trying to
post the payment by F-53 trx.
When I select an open item from the list and I try to simulate the posting by the menu (Document, simulate), system replies by:
"*The difference is too large for clearing
Message no. F5263*"
Cannot understand why it is not possible to post the outgoing payment

Dear Sappione,
did You check the tolerances?
Check in transaction OBY6 the indicator 'No forex rate diff. when
clearing in LC' is not set the amount is converted with the exchange
rate valid at clearing date, in case You're clearing in LC a foreign document.
When you post a clearing transaction with rounding
differences, those differences are posted to an additional line item
GL accounts. This account determination is customized as follows :
FBKP - Exchange rate differences -
Exchange rate difference in open items - KDF -a/c XXXXXXXXX
(Realized gain exchange rate difference)
The accounts used for rounding differences when clearing
are the realized gain/loss exchange rate accounts.
please check all the 3 suggestions.

Difference is too large for clearing - AR

Hi
We have a scenario where we are trying to clear a SINGLE open line item from customer account. The amount is say 0.02USD and it is well within the tolerance limit set for both the users and the customers in the company code. The tolerance group is also assigned in the customer master.
Also we have configured the expense accounts for charging off the difference in OBXL based on reason codes. The reason code has "charge off diff" ticked in table T053R for the company code.
When we try to clear this open item the system gives the message "Difference is too large for clearing". There are no exchange differences.
Please let us know what we are not doing right.
Best wishes
Raj.

dear Raj,
follow steps bellow
1 - OBA4 definition - 99,9%
2 - F-44 (or any other customer clearing tcde)
3 - Autmatic clearing discount
