  • Invoice clearing in Lock Box - FIFO basis

    hi experts,
    My client wants that for specific customer, all those outstanding invoices  be cleared with one payments received via check, that were received first, automatically. In other words, the stream of incoming payments will keep  clearing a sequence of all previous (date-wise)  outstanding invoices automatically.
      It seems we need to do some configuration changes in lock box process. Can any one give some insight in this regard as  how to make it possible?
    Thanks

    No, standard lockbox cofiguration doesn't provide this facility.
    There are 5 standard Lockbox program that do clearing based on either Reference (XBLNR) or Document number (BELNR) or both.
    You may have to customization.
    1. Use some custom re-processing program before Lockbox or
    2. See if you can change clearing rulses in one of the 2 available Lockbox user exits or

  • Lock box procedure

    sapians,
    Please Explain the LOCK BOX PROCESS?
    Business scenario..?
    Legacy system of lOCK BOX PROCESS?
    Regards,
    sap

    hi
    Lockbox is a process provided by a bank where the customer remits his payment to a PO Box at your bank, the bank deposits the check in your account and enters the remittance data from the customer. Then the bank sends the data to you electronically for you to import and apply in SAP-AR.
    The structure that the bank uses is usually one of two formats. BAI will provide you the customer information and the check amount but no invoice remittance data. Usually cheaper and works well for a business where customers are paying only one invoice at a time.
    BAI-2 offers remittance data but the bank charges more for the service because they have to enter more info.
    Look at structures FLB** to see the transfer data. 
    When the bank sends the customer payment data you use Treasury function FLB2 to import and then process the payments. This process attempts to determine where to apply the payment and will post directly against an invoice, an account to a customer or if it can't even determine the customer it posts into a clearing account (configured) to be resolved.

  • Lock box- payment differences

    Dear gurus
    We have a request to change the lockbox setup to handle auto write off any short/overpayments per customer invoice of +/- 50$.
    So when there is a difference of +/-50$ on the payment file (in the lock box process- statement from bank) SAP should write off the difference to a GL acct automatically.
    Please advise where in config, I can make settings and give the acct number, so that differences will written off automatically and how can I test my settings?
    Many thanks in advance
    MSJ

    Hi Vinod
    Thank you for your reply. I followed your instructions.
    But I see that in OBXL there is already a GL acct  499999specified  with no reason code.
    And this Gl acct is hit if there is any unapplied/on acct payments from lock box.
    What we need is , if there is any difference of =/- 50$ it should go to 488888 GLacct.
    I tried putting 488888 in OBXL with a reason code(created a new reason code) and  tried processing a lockbox file, but after running, I see that the payment difference of +/- 50$ is not being hit to 4888888 acct.
    Please advise as what other changes we need in config.
    many thanks

  • How to improve lock box performance

    Hi
    I am working on lock box process. Currently they have lock box processing in 4.6c and now  upgrading to ECC 6.0. Client is not satisfied with the lock box hit rate and want to improve the hit rate by improving matching rate.
    Can any body tell me, what all are the aspects we can take a look and improve it.
    Thanks in advance
    Deepa

    Hi,
    Are you using BAI or BAI2 version of lockbox file? If you are using BAI version, then move to BAI2 version and this will improve the hit rate of Lockbox postings.
    Secondly, while executing the transaction FLB2, in processing parameters - Invoice numbers select the option of 3 or 4. This will enhance the hit rate as the system will look at document number as well as reference field. This will be helpful if Customer gives the number entered in reference field in payment advice.
    Thirdly, you can do a clean up of MICR and Bank Account numbers in Customer Master data. Maintain the correct data, if the data is not updated regularly based on Lockbox data.
    Fourthly, if multiple payer accounts are maintained for Customers, maintain worklist for such customers. Worklist can be maintained in transaction code OB55.
    Thanks

    1) payment advice got generated but the customer open item is still not cleared? do we need to process that further? the check status is applied and G/L document got posted.
    2) I think we can also process lock box posting through Idoc, what is the process flow? would you pease eloberate on this IDOC  process for lockbox.
    3) I am not able to understand the posting done (without clearing the customer open item). Both debit and credit posted to a bank account. would you please eloberate the posting done while lockbox processing?
    Please let me know if more information required.
    Regards,

  • Lock box jobs getting cancelled

    Hello All,
    I am new to lockbox processing. I am into lock box support project now. Recently lot of lock box jobs are getting cancelled. While I am going through job log it says that " Payment advice 01706525923 does not exist for account 10001009 0110 ". Similar error showing for few other jobs. Can you please anybody through some light on this regarding how to investigate this error?
    Thank you,
    Santosh

    When ever you get such kind of message then it says that it has found the customer and not found the document to post.
    Now when you got to T.code FLB1. you can see that in "on account" status.
    Now through lockbox post processing you have to post/clear the document (thru F.04) to make the document to "Applied" status.
    Assign points if useful.

  • Lock box  reason codes

    Dear gurus
    please advise as how we can uses reason codes with lock box file processing.
    We want to write off each individual invoice on customer open item if it is paid +/-60$.
    Can we use reason codes with lock box automatic processing, so that these +/-60$ writeoff's go to a particulat GL acct.
    Many thanks in advance.
    MSJ

    Yes you can.
    Customer and User tolerance limits, payment advice tolerance limits and reason codes
    When an incoming cash payment does not exactly pay the referenced open item(s), then the system will not be able to perform clearing without creating residual items back on the account - except when you establish tolerance limits to allow posting with a write-off of acceptable payment difference amounts.
    Reason code settings are used for description and reporting purposes, generation of specific customer correspondence letters (automatic system generation whenever this reason code is assigned to a document), and difference item write-off/dispute status assignment.
