FICA: Clearing rules for account maintenance & auto clearing to apply credits against unpaid security deposits regardless of due date

Hi Folks,
We have a requirement in FICA clearing rules to apply the payment against unpaid security deposit irrespective of the due date. I have the below rule configured as the first step in my clearing variant.
Grouping String: 019 (statistical indicator); Grp Rule: 3; Char Value: H (security deposits); AIRI: 4; Group: 019
Sort characteristic: 010 (Due date); Rank: 3; Char value: H; Rank: 1
I have maintained the corresponding clearing variant in all the clearing types (account maintenance, automatic clearing, and incoming payments); Clearing rule is working perfectly during payments, however for account maintenance and automatic clearing it's not applying the credits against security deposits first. I still see that the items are cleared only based on due date;
Am I missing something here? Please share your suggestions.
Thanks,
Santosh

Santosh:
This rule will not work in account maintenance. You would need to include the data about the credits into your grouping criteria in order for that to work. Most clearing rules do not work for account maintenance as they do for payments. You probably need to have a separate variant with a rule not based on statistical indicator, but rather based on transaction value or maybe create your own custom grouping via TFK116.

bill.

Automatic Clearing Rule for Customers

Hi,
I have a query regarding Automatic clearing rules for the Customers.
I want to clear all the debit balances against all credit balances for each customer (irrespective of the assignment). The exact amounts are not matching though.
Can this be configured for Cusomers in 'Automatic Clearing Rules'?
Please Advise.
Thanks in Advance,
Safi

Hi,
You can use the transaction code F-32 to clear debit and credit items of a customer account. You can only clear open items from one account. You can use this function to clear debits and credits that balance to zero (for example, invoices and payments that have already been entered into the customer account).
Reward points if it is helpful.
Thanks

Clearing Rules for Defferals

We have requirement where if the deferral date is populated in the document or item then any incoming payment should not clear that item or document in cases where deferral date is in future,
Any item with no deferral date should clear, any excess payment should be posted as on account payment,
deferral items or document should only clear if the deferral date is in the equal to or less than to system date
I need help in setting up clearing rules to support above requirement, please extend your help.

Hi,
If you are unable to get the desired result through configuration, then code custom program logic in FI-CA Event 110 to distribute your incoming payment amount.
In this Event, you can inspect for the attributes of the items to be cleared (e.g. Deferral Date greater than payment date), and decide on the amount to be posted as Payment on Account.
If you are not familiar with FI-CA Events, go into transaction FQEVENTS and read the function module documentation for Event number 110.

Hi:
Welcome to SDN..if you are on manual BRS FF67 then following is the procedure to change the clearing rules. BRS gets posted as per setting in clearing rules ..Based on assignment number or reference number BRS gets posted to main account. Hi:
Please follow as given and hopefully it will help you...
1...Go to SPRO...Financial Accounting....Bank...Business transactions...Payment Transactions...Manual Bank Statement..Create a new transaction with sign - and do not assign anything in posting rule for now and enter 15 (based on it data will be entered in assignment field) in Algorithm field , save.
2...In define posting keys and posting rules...create an account symbol for the one you did in step 1..In Assign account to account symbol please use account symbol created earlier and acc mode + and currency should be + too. In GL Account area please list the outgoing GL initials which you are using for outgoing postings..
In create key for posting rule define a posting rule and now go back to step 1 and assign the posting rule you created to the transaction type
In define posting rules please maintain posting rule as define above...in posting area assign 1. give nothing in first posting key.assign account symbol as created earlier...now give give posting key 50..give account credit Bank...and a suitable document you use for posting BRS...In posting type give 4.
Your Manual Bank statement is ready ....
Go to FS00 select your bank outgoing GL account there and in create/bank.interest tab double click on Field status group..in general data make assignment number mandatory for posting...
Go to FB50....post and outgoing transaction using the GL given above it will require you to enter assignment number enter 123 and post. In FF67 Select the new statement , proceed with your normal data entry and give the transaction you created in above , enter value date, amount and in bank ref field enter 123 as given in FB50.
Save and post it. Now it should work.

Item selection for account maintenance - Final Bill

Hello,
In the yearly consumption incoice, items opened on customer account are automatically cleared with the invoice at the moment of invoice generation.
Customizing to fix what main transaction must be cleared and included in the invoice is under SAP Utilities>Invoicing>Invoicing processing>Item selection in invoicing> Item selection in account maintenance/Define Sub-items.
This is working quite well for normal consumption invoice but account maintenance is not working at all when i try to make a final bill with R43 clearing type.
Could you please indicate me if an special type of customizing is necessary to clear open items with final bill?
Thanks in advance

hello,
main transaction:0200
sub transaction:0020
Open item selection: "all open items for contract account relating to
contract.
"Check out if u have any open items for invoicing unit"
for sub items,
check out at Bill Total "Items always included at final amount"

Business Rules for Account Transformation - Execute a Transformation Group

Hello,
when executing a package for account transformation, I want to select a specific transformation group
only.
The transformation group is the first column in the definitions.
My question:
Can I pass this to script logic as a parameter?
What is it like?
I think this should have a performance effect when using account transformation in default logic.
Thanks for an answer
Jochen

Hi Jochen,
Your best bet is the documentation at [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bpc75_nw/helpdata/en/2b/8f059920de465b88be2893e2117fbe/frameset.htm], however in this case it does not do a very good job of explaining what is happening. Fortunately the CALC= property is just about the only one that you have control over for the account transformation business rules.
The other option (and the only way to truly know what is going on) is to investigate the ABAP programs that actually execute the business rule logic in BW. You can find these programs in SE80, under the UJ package, in the UJP sub-package. You will be most interested in the classes available there. There tends to be one class per business rule group, as well as classes for allocations and validations.
Cheers,
Ethan

Cleared Checks for Accounts

Cleared checks files for companies. These files are loaded into SAP for purchases accounts and eases the reconciliation of outstanding checks and also then allows SAP users to see when a check was cleared by the bank for researching payment discrepancies.
How can I can see this in SAP?
Thanks,

Hi,
You can have the report for check Encashment date from FCHN, change the layout how ever you required.

Accounting document auto cleared

we create billing document and accounting document is generated, after that, we cancelled the billing,
another accounting document generated. both of the two accounting
document appear as open in Accounts receivable. Status of
both these documents is indicated as in process.
How should the invoice & cancellation accounting
document be automatically cleared and status of these documents
should be indicated as completed
Do i need to setup in SPRO, thanks

Hi
As per the standard system will show as zero document in the open items coz
once the billing document genearated the accounting entries will be as follows
customer account will be debited
sales account will be credited
once the billind document cancelled the accounting entries as below
Customer account will be credited
sales account will be debited
then you need clear the items through F.13

Validation Rule for Accounting Document type

Hello Experts
I have an requirement to block certain accounting doc type to get vendor line item post in that. For that I tried to block direct through OBA7 but not be able to also can't delete number range as it is shared by another doc type. My last option is Validation rule but i never work on this ,so any suggest how to create validation rule " To Block Accounting Doc type SO THAT THERE WILL NOT BE ANY line item posting occur in that doc type.
Regards.

ok sure. OB28 callpoint 1. Create a step under this callpoint.
1) Prerequisite is as follows: note XXXX is your company code and ZZ is your doc type.
BKPF-BUKRS = 'XXXX' AND
BKPF-BLART = 'ZZ'
2) Then you need to enter the check. Here you can just put FALSE.
3) The last part is to create your message. Message type E so they get an error and then create a message number in the class that you choose and give it a description:
Document Type 'ZZ' is not allowed
Save it and wah lah!
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks,
Jes

BPC NW - Error in Business Rule for Account transformation rule table

hi
I have given the Account transformation Rule to move Amount from Account A to Account B and then I have given the following script logic in the default script
**RUN_PROGRAM CALC_ACCOUNT*
*CATEGORY = Category*
*CURRENCY = RptCurrency*
*TID_RA = %TIME_SET%*
*CALC=A*
*OTHER = ENTITY=C1000*
**ENDRUN_PROGRAM*
But when I try to load data through Input schedule in Account A and expect amount to transfer to Account B, I m getting an error
Book Name:Book4
Application : PLANNING*
Status : Failed*
Submitted Count : 1*
Accepted Count : 1*
Rejected Count : 0*
- Error Message -*
Error running default logic (Business rules are not available)
- Rejected record list -*
Error converting records: The root element is missing.
Can someone please advice me what to do ....

hi Marcel,
Lot of thanks for your answer.
But I have used your logic after removing GROUPS as I dont have GROUPS dimension in my application.
*RUN_PROGRAM CALC_ACCOUNT
CATEGORY = %CATEGORY_SET%
TID_RA = %TIME_SET%
CALC=FX
OTHER = [ENTITY=%ENTITY_SET%]
*ENDRUN_PROGRAM
This is the error I m getting
Book Name:Book3
     Application     :     PLANNING
     Status          :     Failed
     Submitted Count     :     1

          - Error Message -
Error running default logic (Business rules are not available)
          - Rejected record list -
Error converting records: The root element is missing.
Can you please advice
a) Does it mean some issue with my client installation as I dont see these LGF files. I even dont see the data folder in which lgf files are supposed to be present
b) Where to find information for this interface CALC_ACCOUNT? How did you decide to use 'FX' and how do you know which dimensions to use. Like I dont have GROUPS.
Please give me your comments.

AUTO CLEARING CONFIGURATION

how to configur auto clearing (open item clearing )
wht is the use of GR/IR clearing account in f.13
plz tell use of both

Hi,
See from SPRO: General Ledger Accounting / Business Transactions / Open Item Clearing / Assign Clearing Rules to Account Types. Normal this is what to fill in but there are some other options.
When you post an GR on a Purchasing order and an invoice this is posted on a clearing account (open item management) When you run F.13 it clears automatically these items. For GR/IR clearing you don't have to set up in customizing.
For other clearings perhaps you have to sut-up come customizing

Document not auto cleared after performing FF67

Hi all,
firstly i would like to acknowledge that i'm using version 4.7.
after performing FF67, bank recon document generated in main bank & clearing bank GL accounts. But it is not auto clear in the clearing bank GL account. the treatment is as post GL account & manual clear.
after checking:-
1. trans type ABC using int. algorithm 15 - use assignment field to clear.
2. posting type in posting rule is 4 - clear debit GL account
in FF67 screen variant, assignment field entered the same as assignment value in clearing bank account. by right, the documents will clear off automatically.
anyone can assist what else that i miss out?
thanks in advance.

hi..
we can perform manual clearing or F.13, but the pupose of having such posting rule and posting type is to minimize steps of clearing.
by right, once ff67 posted, the clearing bank gl account will get cleared.

Different clearing rules in SAPF124

Hi Gurus,
usually we use the filed ZUONR as automatic Clearing rule for GR/IR account.
Now we have a Company code, which has a another Content in this field. We could use fields EBELN and EBELP.
The rules I store in customizing..are they like "and-rules" or is this like an "or" - this is because we can not set the rule by company code and of course we still need the ZUONR rule... so if it is an "and" we don't have a chance here anyway...
2.) Any suggestions how to solve it?
Many thanks in advance!
Sandra

Hi Sandra
The conditions in OB74 are "AND" conditions.
Since, we cannot set the criteria at company code level, I would suggest that you use different G/L accounts for the purpose of different criteria.
Since, COA has a vast number of G/L accounts, you can look for some G/L numbers which are not used in any other company code as of now and use them for your purpose only in this particular company code after configuration.

Sowmya
