GL account automatically cleared by the bank statemetn document

Hello all,
I would like to ask you a question.
We have done the payments by payment run to the vendor , FI document 2000008482 has been created, Then we received the bank statement which created the document 101481822 and the GL account used for this payment 2435000022 was automatically cleared by this bank statement documents 101481822
Usually they do manual clearing by f-03 but for the accoutn 2435000022 its automatic
I have 2 questions
1. where in customizing you set up this option that the GL account is automatically cleared when posting bank statement
2. if they need to reverse payment document, how this could be possible? as if they want to reset the clearing docuemtn, they would have to reverse the bank statement document
thanks for your feedback, its reallt apprecited
regards
Hana

You should feel happy if the system clears the payment document. This what the behavious is expected.
When you made the payment it goes to bank sub account, then when you upload the bank statement, then the system expects to clear based on the cheque number etc.
However, if you do not want you can still stop them from clearing and then entry only gets posted. But again, you will be doing the same job what the system is doing by using F-03 or F.13
Please check your posting type against the posting rule

Automatic clearing in electronic banking

Hi all,
I'm working with the electronic banking program to import statements and want to clear items from sub ledger accounts automatically.
From the tests I have done so far, it seems that SAP always tries to locate the business partner via the bank details FIRST. In other words:
IF business partner bank details are provided in the electronic bank statement
THEN SAP takes this as leading in order to determine the business partner
I do not want SAP to start the search via the bank account details. I have been using interpretation algorithm 020 (doc.number) and 031 (doc.number and customer from document) but still SAP always starts searching for the business partner based on the bank details.
My test case is as follows:
- I have a customer A without bank details maintained
- I have a vendor B with bank details maintained
- Customer A is in fact the SAME business parter as vendor B although they are not linked in their master data
Now Customer A makes a payment to me and the bank provides the bank details of the customer AS WELL AS the invoice number. SAP then starts matching and finds vendor B because the customer bank details are maintained in the vendor master. Clearing from the vendor does -of course- not take place because the invoice exists on the customer, not the vendor. So a payment advice is created which holds the vendor account AND the invoice number.
I cannot get SAP to avoid finding the vendor, and instead, find the customer with help of the document number that is also in the bank statement file.
Hope the case is clear, any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Hi Jay,
Open items for G/L Accounts, Vendors and Customers can be cleared automatically by running the Clearing Program
Set up predefined criteria for automatic clearing (Configuration)
Program groups those items from an account that have the same
u2022 Trading Partner ID
u2022 Reconciliation Number
u2022 Currency in which the General Ledger is updated
u2022 Four freely definable criteria
The program groups together items from an account that have the same reconciliation account number, currency, and Special G/L indicator, as well as pre-defined criteria from the document header or item such as the allocation field, reference number and amount.
If the balance, in local currency, of the items within a group is zero, the system automatically clears them and creates clearing documents.
Prerequisites for using the automatic clearing program:
u2022 Accounts must be managed on an open item basis.
u2022 Accounts to be cleared must be defined in customizing.
The automatic payment program does not clear noted items, statistical posting, down payments, bills of exchange and items with withholding tax entries.
When clearing open items in a foreign currency, differences may occur due to fluctuations in exchange rates. The system automatically posts these differences as realized gains or losses.
Config: IMG>FA>GL. Accounting>Business transactions>Open item clearing>Prepare automatic clearing.
AS well see the notes for better understanding.
Hope it gives better understanding.

Vyas

Suspens account automatic clearing

Hello!
I need to run an automatic clearing for a bank suspens account but my issue is that the payment document (from F110) and the bank transfer doesnt have fields in common. Asking the bank to change the assignment or text field is not an option for me....
The only thing I found as connexion between these two documents is the text field from the bank transfer document which contains the document payment number BUT among more characters. Do you think it is possible to extract the document number from the text field and link it somehow with the automatic clearing OB74?
I will appreciate any comment!
Thank you in advance,
REgards

or do mass change for text field and do te settings in OB74 for yoru GL account .
Many Thanks

GRIR Automatic Clearing at the time of GR

Hi Experts
In GRIR clearing account system automatically cleared open items when perform following entries:
1. Entry at the time of GR
     Inventory A/C      Dr
     GRIR A/C          Cr
2. Entry at the time of LIV
     GRIR A/C           Dr
     Vendor A/C          Cr
When performing second entry system should automatically cleared open items but in my case it wonu2019t, when I go to FS10n and seeing the GRIR account system shows both debit and credit entries but they are still showing OPEN as red sign, although my balance in GL showing zero, due to this there is a long list of open item showing which is wrong, if any one have an idea please comment or share their valuable input.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Ashfaq,
You should check the configuration that has been made for automatic clearing of the GR/IR account. You can search for "automatic clearing" in SPRO or directly use transaction code OB74.
Here you define as to based on which parameters F.13 will match the Dr. and Cr. and clear the same.
You can also define and assign tolerances. For eg if there is a small difference between the Dr and the Cr. you can tell the system to still clear these two items.
Based on what you mention, I think you are confusing the postings here. F.13 will not post anything on to the vendor account.
Are you sure you ran F.13 not in test mode and in production mode? Please check this to make sure the GL items have been cleared.
Also when you run F.13, remove the flag from the vendor account. In the selection parameters only provide the GR IR Account.

Old checks cleared in the bank but still negotiable in AP

Hi,
Our oracle AP system is showing many old outstanding checks but that has been actually cleared in the bank. In other words, these checks cleared in the bank (years ago) but AP system didn't know they were cleared (these checks are still negotiable per AP) . Any suggestion on how to resolve these type of payments?

Hi,
Note 1484182.1, Latest: Clear, Unclear, Reconcile, Unreconcile, provides a good overview of the steps to clear a transaction. You can manually clear the transactions. Manually clearing the checks will trigger journal entries. You do not have to post them. You can delete them in GL. You will need to know this for reconciliation between AP and GL that these payment clearing events were not posted.
1) Stop all users from generating accounting.
2) Run the Payables Accounting Process to generate accounting before starting to clear checks.
3) Manually clear the old checks.
4) Run the Payables Accounting Process. You can limit this to Payment events. Go ahead and run the Transfer to GL, but do not submit the Post Journal Import process (set the parameter to "No").
5) This should isolate the transactions.

Billing document cancellation (VF11) the cancelled doc. is not getting automatically cleared against the actual billing doc.

Hi All,
In case of billing document cancellation (VF11) the cancelled doc. is not getting automatically cleared against the actual billing doc. no. Each time user has to clear the doc. manually. We have observed this issue after recent patch updation dated 22nd Feb’2014. Till 21st Feb’2014 the cancelled doc. has been cleared automatically against their respective billing documents.
Please guide.
Thank you.

Hi Gopi,
Please chheck SAP Note No. 1259505. It explains two ways in which SAP releases cancellation documents to FI.
OSS NOte 1259505 lists the possible causes from SD side &
OSS Note 309208 lists the possible causes from FI side.

Automatic clearing in Electronic Bank Reconciliation

Hi All,
I have a scenario here where my client is using an Electronic Bank Statement to do bank reconciliation. The format used is MultiCash. Our setting for Bank GL account are using one Uncleared account - all payment or transfer will be posted here, and one cleared account - after bank reconciliation has been done, it will clear the line item in Uncleared account and post it in Cleared Account.
And one of the conifg we do for bank reconciliation is to automatically clear the Payment Document in Uncleared Account and post it to Cleared Account by searching and matching the Document number. So in the bank statement files given by the bank (DB), it will provide the document number in "Note to payees"
But we have a problem here with few market in Korea and Taiwan. They have limits for every transaction. For example, for Taiwan, each transaction is limit to TWD 20,000,000 only. Thus, if I got a payment paid out to vendor amounted 61,000,000 TWD, when the payment order is sent to the DB bank, the bank will automatically split it into 4 different payments transactions. Three transaction with amount TWD 20,000,000 and one transaction with amount 1,000,000.
So when the bank provide us with the bank statement file, the system will fail to do the clearing as its impossible to clear 20,000,000 TWD with the payment document TWD 61,000,000 in SAP. Currently they are using FEBAN to manually post partially and clear it off.
So my question will be, is it possible for SAP to detect all this 4 documents (20,000,000, 20,000,000, 20,000,000, 1,000,000) and clear it off with my payment document in the Uncleared Account amounted 61,000,000? The bank provided same SAP document number in every transaction for the Notes to payee field.
Please advice. Thanks.

Please check the algorithm you have mentioned against the posting rule for the transaction that is not getting cleared. Please use the criteria (like document number or cheque number or bank key etc.) in the reference field in the posting transaction to help the system to find out the matching item from the uncleared items for enabling to clear it off automatically.

Will system automatic clear all the records in v$SQLAREA?

Can anyone tell me when the system will clear all the records in v$SQLAREA table? Or this is a global temporary table, once the database is down, all the records will remove from this table.
FAN

v$sqlarea contains records from shared memory, which uses LRU algorithm to store data (oldest data are thrown away where there is no place for new data). On the other hand shared memory is empied when you shutdown database (thats why is contains almost no data at startup).

F110-Automatic Selection of vendor bank by document currency

We are currently on version 5.0 and have a situation where one company code wants to eliminate the manual input of partner bank type-field BVTYP into the invoice document. The desired objective is to have the system automatically populate the field dependant on the currency in the document. The vendor master has several bank accounts within the same country, but with different bank accounts depending on the currency to be paid. The field has been populated with a representative country designation followed by the currency type. Payment grouping has been tried by creating a new type using the partner bank type. We are not using payment requests at the current time. Optimization has been briefly investigated.
Does anyone know or have exposure on how to get the payment proposal to show the same vendor with the two different bank accounts that are paid from different partner bank types? Since this pertains to just one company code we don't want to create a customized program.
Thank you for any suggestions.

Question for you-Within the banking details on the vendor, which bank is set up first? We have run into a similar problem but it occurs when we have two USD or similar banks and one has details in the bank reference field and the other does not. The partner bank type is not selected in the document and the system will go to the first bank in the queque. The other think I can think about offhand is has some selected the currency as a field within the payment proposal to exclude? This will exclude the currency you have indicated, but this doesn't sound like your issue. I have run accross this at another client in which they had the payment currency specified in the document as one thing and the actual document currency was something else. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Could you give me some details of how your vendor master is set up? Are you using any bank chains?

Sara Perry

In the latest Firefox where "browser.download.panel.removeFinishedDownloads" no longer exists, how does one automatically clear only the download history

In light of the latest Firefox and the fact that it does not listen to my download retention setting and that "browser.download.panel.removeFinishedDownloads" no longer exists, how do I clear the download history automatically after each download without clearing browser history too? If this is not an option then it is either a serious bug or an important feature removed. If this continues, this is a big reason for me to discontinue using firefox. Really guys! Why?!

then that is really awful. why was this done? maybe it is time to change browsers if this is not corrected soon. yes, corrected, as I see this as a major bug.
thank you for your help though.
Oh, wait, the downloads I keep seeing are not located in any particular folder but scattered across my computer in different folders I manually save them to. Would this make any difference? In any event, I can still see the download history, and I so much prefer the old way.

I have 2 email accts. I set it up so that email from one account automatically transfer to the other account. How do I undo it?

I have two email accounts. I was having problems with one account and set it up to automatically transfer emails from the problem account to the other. The account with the problem has been fixed. How do I undo the automatic transfer?

I don't suppose it will be exactly the same on my ISP's webmail interface as Comcast's, but I've just checked the route I have to follow with my provider (Orange in France):
Log on to your email account in a web browser > Select Mail's Preferences > Select Forward my email to another mailbox.
If you don't have this, or a similar option, I'm afraid I'm stuck for other ideas .

Automatic Clearing - Open Item GL Account

Dear Friends,
We have created the Bank Clearing Account as an open item management account. The account would be credited while making the payment to the vendor thru automatic payment run and debited once the payment has been cleared from the Bank. We would like to do the automatic clearing of the open items like GRIR account. Could you please advise what maintenance is to be done on the Config side and which T Code is to be used.
Thanks for the help!

Automatic Payment Run - Clearing of the Open Items

Dear Forum,
We have an issue with the clearing of the open items in the Bank Clearing Account. While creating the payment run, the credit to the Bank Clearing Account happens with the Value Date getting updated in the Assignment Field. However, after we import the Electronic Bank Statement, we do not find the Value Date updated in the Assignment Field in the entry for debit to the Bank Clearing Account, and instead some other reference appears in the Assignment Field. The issue is in such a case how could we perform the automatic clearing of the open items. Is it that we need to do some maintenance in SAP or do we need to get some thing done on the Bank side.
Also if the criteria for clearing the open items is value date, how would the system behave in case the value date is same for two identical items and only one has been cleared from the Bank...how would the system know which one to be cleared.
Help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Regards

Hi Raj,
Basically assignment field is used to enter the cheque/ dd number or bank transfer doc number. Thi facilitate the refernce for the system. If you use this then the problem of checks with sam valudate & amount will automatically get resolved.

Electronic Bank Statement - automatic clearing via Assignment number

Dear all,
when posting our outgoing cheques, the cheque number is copied to the assignment field (via an automatic job). Our cheque numbers have 6 digits.
When we are getting in the bank statement file the cheque number is populated in the 'Note to payee' (same number in "Reference" field), but instead of 6 digits, the bank adds additional 6 digits / zeros infront of the cheque number. Meaning that instead of 005217 we get 000000005217.
We want to use the automatic clearing with the link between 'Note to payee' and 'Assignment field'.
The following settings were done in the system:
1. Posting rules: "4 Clear debit G/L acct"
2. Search string definition:
1. 0 > ' ', 2. 0 > ' ', 3. 0 > ' ', 4. 0 > ' ', 5. 0 > ' ', 6. 0 > ' ', 7. # > #, 8. # > #, 9. # > #, 10. # > #, 11. # > #, 12. # > #
3. Search string use:
- Algorithm 015: Clearing Transaction: Selection Using Assignment
- Target field: Payment Notes
With those settings the system does not find the items to clear.
Does anybody know what is missing?
Thanks!
R, Katharina

We have uploaded MT940 file through /nff.5 .
The posting which has happened after MT940 was uploaded is
Dr Main bank account ( 190220) 500 INR
Cr. Bank Sub Control Account (190228) 500 INR
The entry which is their is sub control bank account posted on
Dr. Bank Sub control Account (190228) 500 INR
Cr. Customer Account 500 INR
Their is no other posting also with 500 in sub control account
But these are not cleared automatically & reflecting in FEBA as to be posted.
Now out 100 trnsaction the success rate of automatic clearing is 30%.
What could be the reason? Is it to do with date etc.
I undertand that clearing against ( two document ) is against some criteria.
then what those criteria are.
