HI,
If you are in ECC with Doc Splitting, SAP Recommend that, once doc posted with non open item selection GL A/c,
SAP Provided Information:
(Create a new account with the correct account assignment. Post your
items to the new account. If you want to use the original account number, you must bring the account balance to zero, change the account assignment, and repost the items. You can remove the old items by
archiving the documents.)
1 u2013 Create New GL A/C with same activity with open item check box.
2 u2013 Transfer Balances from Old GL A/c to New GL A/c.
3 u2013 Block Old GL Account.
If you are in up to 4.7
1- Make it Zero this GL Balance
2- Block for posting  GL A/C
3- Select Open Item Mngt Check Box
4-  Run Program in, T.Code SE38, Program :RFSEPA02
5- Remove Block Indicator for this GL

    Hi,
    You can activate the OI mangement for GL accuonts through FS00 (GL Master Data). Have you made any transactions to those GL Accounts. If you wish to use the original account number, first you must make the account balance to zero , and then activate the OI check box
    Or you can create a new account with the correct account assignment and transfer the balance fm the old account to the new account.
    The GL will be open item managed only with effect from the date of activating the OI check box.
    hope this helps

  • Activate open item management on G/L with existing line items

    Hello all,
    I have a G/L account with line items on it. I want to activate open item management now.
    I can do that in several ways and have also managed to do it.
    The EXISTING line items, however, do not have an open item status in the sense of "open" or "cleared". Instead, they show up with the green tick in front of the line. I would actually want the existing line items to be marked as "cleared" so they will disappear from the open item inquiry report.
    I have found several SAP notes about this behaviour and know that SAP recommends to create a new account and then re-post. In this particular case, however, I have lots of reasons to keep the existing account.
    My question is therefore if someone knows how to make the existing line items disappear from the open item inquiry. We are on SAP 4.6C and switching to ERP 6.0 so would be interested in both systems. By the way, I also found several info about FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP but this seems to be for the new G/L which we don't use.
    Thanks in advance for any input.
    René

    I just saw this question now, if solution is still necessary you can read on
    First: you can make an account open item only if the account has no balance. You mentioned there are postings on the account. If these postings make a zero balance all together (i. e. the debits and credits are equal):
    1. change the master data
    2. run program RFSEPA02 to change the existing items
    3. clear the items
    If the postings do not make zero, than you have to first make the account balance zero, carry out the above steps and reverse the posting mentioned previously.
    The above works for 4.6x and ECC 6.0 systems as well.

  • Activate "Open Item Management" for account, line items posted previously

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    I am having a problem when do a clearing for GL account due to "open item management" check box in Txn FS00 is not activated and only "Line Item Display" is activated. For your info,  there are line items already posted and now we want this GL as an "Open Item Management". We are using ECC 6.0.
    I did referred to a previous posting in this Forums Activate "Open Item Management" for an Asset, line items posted previously but i received these errors when following the solution. The errors are like below:
    *Account 0039091200 is a reconciliation account in company code 5000
    *Company code 5000 is not considered for the activation
    What does it means by these errors? How do i rectify this error?
    Thanking you in advance.
    Regards,
    Nazrul

    Hi,
    1. Executing report RFSEPA02 has a risk and also doubtful since it is not applicable in ECC 6.0 (New GL).
    2. Create a New G/L with Open item management and transfer the balance to the newly created G/L.
    Refer the earlier threads / replies else last option contact SAP (OSS).

    You would have to purchase a second subscription since one subscription allows for only two active installations of which only one can be in use at a time.
    As far as cost goes...

  • Want to tick Open Item Management in TDS Account

    Hi Gurus,
    I have posted some transactions to TDS GL Account but open item management is not ticked.
    Now i want to tick open item management and i am running program RFSEPA02 in se38 but system is giving message that do not use report program for open item management.
    Please tell me how can i solve the issue.
    Thank You

    From ECC versions SAP has recommended that   Do not use the report program to set up open item management for the
    account.
    Create a new account with the correct account assignment. Post your
    items to the new account. If you want to use the original account
    number, you must bring the account balance to zero, change the account
    assignment, and repost the items. You can remove the old items by
    archiving the documents.
    better you write to service market place or take the view from exactly same thing faced any one.

  • Can we Select Open Item Management for Recon Accounts??

    Hi Members,
    Is it necessary to select check box open item management for reconciliation accounts ???
    for ex; sundry debtors, sundry creditors .
    If so may i know the reason.
    Bcz all subledger accounts are automatically maintained as open item accounts ..so is it again necessary to select this check box in recon. accounts.
    thanks and regards.

    Hi
    System will not allow to save with OIM selected for Recon account.
    For all sub ledgers OIM will be unchecked.

  • Activate open item management in GL

    hi experts,
    can any body help me to change the GL master data, I want to activate the open item management in gl master but system does not allow me to do that bcs there is some transactional data.
    how to active open item in that particular gl.
    help me
    Thanks & Regards
    Suresh

    hi,
    system never allow you to change the master data, if there is any transaction data. if you want to make that gl as a open Item management, unless the balance is 0
    1) first you have to make the gl as a 0 balance... so you have to reverse all the transactions. then the gl would be 0 balance... using fb08.
    2) then change the gl master data as a open item management.. now system allows you to do..
    3) then re-reverse the reversed documents....
    I think it will be useful to you..
    assign points if it is useful...

  • Activate "Open Item Management" for an Asset, line items posted previously

    Dear Experts,
    In Asset there are line items already posted but it is not "Open Item Management" only "Line Item Display" is activated. Now we want this as "Open Item Management".  We are using ECC 6.0.
    Please help... how to go about it? 
    - Nilesh

    Dear John Sir,
    Thanks a lot for the explanation which was really helpful.
    As per last discussion : "If asset clearing account XXXXXX had not been maintained as open item management and posted with a balance. It canu2019t be changed directly using FSS0 in G/L master because of non-zero balance on account XXXXXX."
    Please can you explain the detail steps involved for your suggested solution i.e; The step SA38 > RFSEPA02 should be used to achieve this purpose.
    We are usin ECC 6.0. so do we need to convert program "RFSEPA02" to "ZRFSEPA02".? And what are the repucations involved if we execute this solution, as SAP itself don't recommend this program to execute.
    Please help.

  • Activate Open Item Management for a tax GL account

    Hi experts
    I have tried different options and explored forums but haven't been able to find the solution as yet.
    I have some tax GL accounts (Tax Category field in their GL master is < or > i.e. Input or Output Tax Account). There have been postings to these accounts but these accounts are not open item managed. To perform clearing for these accounts, I need to activate OIM for which I'm trying FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP but the system gives me error"
    "Not possible to determine tax indicator in company code xxxx
    Company code xxxx is not considered for the activation"
    When I further drilldown the error, i find the following information:
    Diagnosis
    Postings to the selected account require a tax code. On the basis of the company code data (T001), the system tried to determine a tax code for zero tax. However, there is no such tax code stored for the company code.
    Procedure
    Specify the tax code for zero tax in the company code. You do this in Customizing for Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) under Assign Tax Codes for Non-Taxable Transactions.
    I have checked settings in OBCL for Non-Taxable Transactions and found that I0 and O0 are maintained for Input and Output tax (also tax jurisdiction). In Table T001 I also find these entries so these seem to be complete.
    Can somebody please help me sorting out this issue.
    Many thanks!

    Hi,
    Some G/L accounts cannot be managed on an open item basis,
    specially G/L accounts that are used in account determination for
    automatic transactions (ie: accounts set up as bank accounts, Tax
    accounts, raw material accounts, reconciliation accounts, profit and
    loss accounts).
    It is the standard design of the FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP that there is no
    conversion of a tax account to open item management.
    Processes as the posting of the sales/purchases tax payable do not
    process any clearing transactions therefore the open item management is
    not necessary. Clearings must really never be posted to an input VAT or
    output vat tax account, otherwise it would prevent subsequent processes
    on the actual open items (Customer or vendor). The only tax account on
    which the open item management should be possible is the G/L account of
    the deferred tax.
    Hope my information was helpful for you.

  • How to Change Open Item Management Field in GL Master Record

    Hi,
    How to change the field Open Item Management becz eventhough I tried through in norrmal way of making it that GL balance to 0 and made the change after that it not allowing to save and throwing the following errors,
    Account Balance = 0 but open items exist is the error coming,
    Can any one plz advice ?

    Hi,
    Once transaction data is posted, GL Account cannot be made into an open item managed account. However, you can consider the following options:
    1. GL Account Balance is ZERO: If the GL Account balance is ZERO, the GL Master record can be changed to Open Item managed Account or vice versa. But this will not change the transaction data already posted. Only future transaction data will be open item managed.
    2. Until SAP version 4.0B SAP has provided a program to convert a GL Account to open item managed account after transaction data is posted (or vice versa). You can execute this program by blocking the GL Account and this will make the required changes in tables and also change GL Master record.
    But this program is not available for execution in higher versions. Hence, you can copy the program into a Z Program and execute it. The name of the standard program is RFSEPA02.
    Thanks

  • Open item management of GL account

    Hi all
    I am trying to activate open item mangement indicator for my tax account for around 30 company codes. I could able to activate for all exept one company code and i am receiving the massage as
    "You cannot change the open item management setting".
    Any suggetions???
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I think that Gl has some postings into it and so it will not allow you to change the OI management status. You transfer all the balance fron that GL to Other Dummy GL and the Try to change the status. Even the if it is not allowing the execute the following
    Open Item Management
    If you are in an new GL environment, you cannot change it; a new account is required as you may have to abandon the old one.
    Are you release 4.5 A or earlier? Then SAP supports the change program RFSEPA02/03 after you zero down the balance of the balance sheet account. Beyond 4.5A and untill New GL, you can change it but beware, SAP no longer supports RFSEPA02/03, since handling errors frequently occurred in the past causing data inconsistencies.
    If you nevertheless want to use the reports, copy them to ZFSEPA02 or ZFSEPA03 and mark the following lines as comments:
    INITIALIZATION.
    CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_DISPLAY_TEXT'
    EXPORTING
    POPUP_TITLE = ' '
    TEXT_OBJECT = 'RFSEPA02' ('RFSEPA03')
    EXCEPTIONS
    TEXT_NOT_FOUND = 1
    OTHERS = 2.
    LEAVE PROGRAM.
    In addition, you must adjust the EPA00F00 include. Mark the following line as comment:
    INCLUDE EPA00F00.
    *>>>> START OF DELETION - NOTE 175960 <<<<
    CHECK SY-REPID = 'RFSEPA02'. "<<<< INSERT - NOTE 0065877
    *>>>> END OF DELETION - NOTE 175960 <<<<
    Enhance the following line:
    INCLUDE EPA00F00.
    *>>>> START OF INSERTION - NOTE 175960 <<<<
    CHECK SY-REPID = 'ZFSEPA02'. "<<<< INSERT - NOTE 0175960
    *>>>> END OF INSERTION - NOTE 175960 <<<<

  • Change Open Item Management for GL accounts

    Hi All,
    Good Day.
    I would like to asked if you have any idea on how to solve the error we encountered upon opening our open item management for our GL? The error is Line item total does not tally with account balance. Message no. FH099.
    We have a Z* program customized from program RFSEPA02, we test it out in our QA and it was working fine. Even if the GLs has balance in QA.
    But when we transfer it in Production, we encountered this kind of error.
    Any idea how to solve it, i tried reading other questions on this forum with the same error, but i cant find any solution specific for this error.
    Please help.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    See the  Note 203329 - RFSEPA02 generates FH099 alth. balance = item total
    Symptom
    Report RFSEPA02 generates the error message FH099: 'Line item total does not tally with account balance' although the item total tallies with the balance and SAPF190 does not show any differences.
    Additional key words
    RFSEPA01, FIINCON
    Cause and prerequisites
    Open item management has already been activated once and items were cleared so that cleared items exist in the system for the account. These are not taken into account during the check of the item total with the account balance and cause the error message.
    Solution
    Reset the clearing transactions using Transaction FBRA.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Shashi Kanth

  • Open Item Management for GL Account

    When I run transaction code FAGL_FC_VAL - Foreign Currency Valuation a certain GL account is not apprearing on the list generated by the report. The Open Item Management checkbox is selected for this GL account in the master file, whereas the other GL accounts that appear in the report this option is not selected.
    Can someone explain if this could be the casue of the problem and why the selection of this checkbox "Open Item Management" will prevent it from appearing on the report .

    Hi Niketa,
    The reason you are not able to see those accounts is Foreign currency valuation covers the following accounts and items:
    Foreign currency balance sheet accounts, that is, the G/L accounts that you run in foreign currency.
    The balances of the G/L accounts that are not managed on an open item basis are valuated in foreign currency.
    So the accounts that are managed on open item basis are not shown to you.
