HI,
If you want to use the original account number, you must bring the account balance to zero, change the account assignment, and re-post the items. You can remove the old items by archiving the documents.
Please change the error to a warning and you will able to skip it This will allow you to change the indicator XOPVW.
Keep in mind that changing the account management to line item/open item display is not recommended by SAP.

GL Account Change to Open Item Management

Hi,
Initially I have not created one account as open item management. After a period of time(after some transactions) I have made the balance Zero in that account and I have tried to create open item management for the account. But system is not accepting and error message is - Account balance is Zero but open items exists in the account.
BSR

Hello Dear,
From my $0.02, If you subsequently define open item management for a G/L account, this entry only applies to the items which are posted afterwards. At the date of the change, the account must display
a zero balance. Also, when canceling this indicator, the balance must be zero. You therefore have to clear the remaining open items before making the change in the master record.
FYI - Please make sure that only following accounts are required to be maintained as an Open Item management Accounts :
Cash discount clearing account
Clearing accounts
Bank clearing account
GR/IR clearing account
Salary/Payroll clearing account
Non Open Item Managed Accounts are as under:
Bank accounts
Tax accounts
Reconciliation accounts
Raw material accounts
Thanks

Cannot change the open item management setting

When I try to switch the open item management specification on or off, a message comes up telling me that if I want to switch this function on, I must create a new account with the correct setting and use it to make a transfer posting of existing items.
Does anybody know how to do this ?

GL acct change to Open Item management (with archived docu.)

Dear all,
When we use program ZRFSEPA02(copy from RFSEPA02) to switch on OI mang for GL acct,but program prompt this acct have documents were<b> archived and NOT allow to execute!</b> I know SAP announced RFSEPA02 was not usable since 4.5A,but users insist to use old GL acct,and ask SAP OSS and replied for consultant issue.
So is there any ways to solve this problem?

As you would not get to see the old docs even if the program did work then you should go the recommended route of creating a new G/L Account (with open item management switched on) and redirect your users and any system settings to it.

Change GL acc to NON open item Management

Good day all
We have a couple of GL accounts that the client want to change from open item management to NON open item management.
I was told to 1. Block the GL accounts
                    2. Clear the balances,
                    3. Customize program RFSEPA03 to Z program and run
                    4. Move balance back to GL account
                    5. Unblock GL account.
My question now is, I can change the open item setting after the balance is cleared and save the changes, so why do I have to use program RFSEPA03 then? Is there any other purpose for program RFEPS03 other dan taking the "tick" out of the OPen Item Management box?
If I do it manually, it will save me development time as the program wont be needed in a customized format.
Please advice.
Kind regards
Lu

Hi Gopal,
You can maitian a gl a/c without line item display to do so follow the path
sap easy access-accouting-financial accouting-general ledger-master records-gl a/cs-individual processing-centrally, or trans code FS00
then open the gl account in the required company code and click control data ,then click change and under account management in company code u can un check line item display and save the changes.
Make sure line item display is off for recon accounts as the line item are maintained at customer or vendor level and for bank a/c line item should always be ticked on .
Hope this is helpful if so reward points.
regards,
Mayur

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
Murali.

Change open item management status

Hi,
We found the some GL accounts are maintained with no open item management status and already have postings in those GL accounts.
No, our client is aksing us to rectify the all this kind of accounts with no open item management.
Earlier we rectified this problem with zRFSEPA02.
But it is creating some problems in their reporting. Now my client is asking us to suggest a solution other than zRFSEPA02.
Because there are around hundres of accounts in no.of company codes say around more than 30 company codes.
Please let me, is there any solution to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance
Thanks& Regards,
PRASAD

1. Out of 4 G/L, we have managed to change 2 of the G/Ls to open item using ZRFSEPA02.
2. While other 2 encounter error "Line item total does not tally with account balance."
     - Message no. FH099
3. Basically we have make the account zero and blocked these G/Ls for posting before executing program
     ZRFSEPA02 and still can't find out what went wrong since the steps are the same.
4. Anyhow we can now tick all 4 G/Ls to Open Item Management with the successful G/Ls showing
     their line item as open item in FBL3N while those failed G/Ls currently showing line item as posted in the similar report.
Running SAP 4.7

We have successfully change to open item management for another set of G/Ls and the steps are below:-
(a) make sure all the balances were carried forward for all related ledgers which in our case we have 2, 00 and S
(b) ensure G/L account zero for all doc crcy, local crcy1, local crcy2 and local crcy3 (transfer for temp. to conversion purpose G/L)
(c) blocked all the related G/Ls
(d) execute ZRFSEPA02 for all the related G/Ls
(e) unblock the G/Ls from step (c)
(f) reverse entries from step (b)

Changing Open Item Management Settings

Hi,
When iam trying to change the open item management settings i am getting the error that Account balance is zero, but the account has open items. Why iam getting this error? and how to resolve this.
Thanks

Hello,
was the message : FH190 generated when you change the o"pen line item management flag"?
The error message FH190 prevents users from switching off the Open item management indicator when open items already exist. Please consider the following options:
1) Change error message FH190 to warning message via transaction OBA5.
     Enter application area FH. Press Enter. Click on New entries.
    MsgNo                    Online           Batchl
    190                      W                W
    Click on Save.
2) Create new G/L account with Open item management indicator turned OFF via transaction FS00. Transfer balance from old G/L account (open item management ON) to new G/L account (open item management OFF).
Please review note 606977 for further info.
Also check NOTE 403744 which may be helpful to use. However, this is aConsulting note where is also advised not to activate the line item management but to transfer the items to this new account.

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 <<<<

Open item management is not activated

Hi Consultant,
I want to activate the open item management in GL. We have done correct setting another GL account. The amount should be transferred from old GL to new GL. The old GL become zero balances. We will try to activate the open item management and we can't change the setting. The user wants to maintain the same GL account. I tried to execute sap standard programme RFSEPA01. Kindly guide me.
Regards,
Krishnan.

Hi,
Me too got the same problem, but the way i had cleared the issue was different. I just reversed all the entries and nullify the GL Account. Then i tried to check the open item management, the following error message i was getting.
FH190 Account balance = 0 but open items exist in the account
Then i controlled that message via OBA5 to warning message and then i was able to check the open item management.
So my purpose was asking for any error message was this only. However can you say me any error message number with diagnosis?

Issue with open item management

Hi Gurus

when i was trying to select Open item managemetn and save it was allowed for me for company code AR01 but not for company code AR02, those two accounts having zero balance and both are same accounts.
teh error message is as below
You cannot change the open item management setting; (see long text)
Message no. FH087
any help
kind regards
Sunitha

Hi,
It does not matter whether an account has zero balance or not, you cannot change it to open item managed as far as they were already transactions posted to it.
As already mentioned you need to to run report RFSEPA02. Copy it to ZFSEPA02 and deactivate limitations in the program in accordance with SAP Note 175960.
SAP does not support this report because it may cause differences between totals and sum of open items.

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 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.
Regards,
Cristiano
