No Line Item on simulation when clearing vendor with F-32

Hello all,
I have a problem where there are no line items coming when I'm trying to simulate a document, thats selecting the 2 open items in the vendor and clearing them against each other.
While posting, the balance comes to 0 but when I try to simulate, it doesnt give any line item and the document is blank.
Can any one help me on this?
Thanks a lot,
Regards,
Ankush

Hi Ankush,
I just want to add more information for you about clearing an open item;
If you use "Account Clearing" transaction to clear items from several accounts. The followings condition will apply.
The clearing document
- Normally contains no line items. This is because often, postings are not required to clear items within an
account.
- Does not appear in the line item display, neither with the cleared nor the open items.
- The invoice and the credit memo are now cleared items and therefore have the same clearing document
number.
The clearing document contains items if;
- The items to be cleared belong to different business areas. The system then has to carry out offsetting
postings to bring the balance to zero for each business area. This is done using the transaction "Transfer
Posting with Clearing".
- An invoice is cleared with a credit memo minus cash discount. The clearing document then contains the
cash discount posting.
Assign point please.

Special gl process

hi,
i read that there are 3 types of special gl processes : free offsetting postings, automatic offsetting posting and noted item.
1) only free offsetting posting will impact FS?
2) automatic offset will have notes or only appendix in FS. can consider impact FS?
3) automatic offset posting also called statistical posting as always posted to the same offset. is this configured? if yes, what tcode?
4) automatic offset or statistical posting only apply on guarantee?
5) how is the double entry like for point 4. can have example?
6) can have example on free offset posting?
7) what transaction will be for free offset posting.
8) all special gl account are alternative recon account in gl, correct?
9) for point 7, when dr debtor account, alternative recon account also get debited. correct? the entry side just like normal recon acc for normal subledger account recon account. correct?
thanks

Points 8 &9 - Yes All special GL will flow through alternate recon account. Every reocn account which will have an impact on special GL will be mapped to a Alternate recon account.
These alternate recon account will also get dr/ cr on the same side of the customer/ vendor account.

Customizing one time customer invoice

Hi guys,
I wonder if anybody can help me, please.
I have to customize the FI invoice process.
It´s to invoice one-time customers, when they buy an item in the shop. It´s to be able to print an invoice, and charge the right cost-center and accounts, each time a customer buys an item.
I have to customize the FI invoices.
Some of my friend adviced me to use transaction FB70 or F-22. And others told me to do through SPRO.
Can anybody give me any guidance where to start from? And which transactions to use, please?
Thank you!
Kind regards
Rima
Edited by: Drimas on Jun 2, 2009 4:55 PM

Hello,
FB70 or F-22 is for the purpose of customer invoice
FB70 is with new screen
F-22 is with posting key
However, the purpose is one and the same.
For regular as well as one time vendor you will have same transaction code.
Some of the configurations for One time customer Invoice.
1. Make sure you have created customer groups for one time customers. OBD2 - Check One time Vendor Check Box
2. You must have created some GL accounts for offsetting postings - FS00
3. Create number ranges for customers XDN1
4. Assign customer number ranges to Customer Account Group OBAR
5. Define number ranges for accounting documents FBN1
These are few minimum settings.
Please let me know if you still have issues.

Ravi

Logic of BSX = GBB, PRD etc in FI-MM integration

Hi all,
I like to have your input on the below logic
Can we say that valuation class 3000 assigned in BSX should equal to all the offsetting setting account assigned to same valuation class in OBYC (GBB, PRD Etc.)
BSX = GBB , PRD etc.
I am asking this question because if we check the balance of GL assigned in BSX then it should be equal to the all offsetting account related to same valuation class.
Regards,
Bittu

Try convince your client based on few sample documents; that system will not post without document being complete, that way offset will always tie out.
Still, if you are trying identify all the offsetting postings for a GL account and if you are well versed with query tool, pl try creating a query with logical database SDF. You will see a structure GSEG that contains all the offsetting postings. You will have to write single line ABAP code in the query to block endless loop when your account is repeated in the document.
For the situation you have mentioned, the GL account with other valuation class will appear as an offset in your output, which should be ok.
Hope this helps.

P-card clarifications

Hi all,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 in decoupled mode. I have few clarifications about P-card process
1.What purchasing document is transmitted to the vendor? Is it a PO? Who triggers this document to vendor: requisitioner or purchasing department?
2.Does Purchasing document go through (i.e. is triggered by) purchasing department?
3.Is EDI required to trigger the purchasing document to vendor? Are there alternate means of transmitting purchasing document?
4.Is EDI required to receive bank statements? Are there alternate means of receiving statement
5.When bank sends the bank statement to SRM and is converted to idoc for posting to SRM, does it trigger an accounts posting? Are the following accounts posted?
u2022Clearing account debit
u2022Bank (set up as a vendor) account credit?
6.When does the offset postings happen, i.e. when does the following postings happen:
u2022Clearing account credit
u2022Expense account debit?
Rgds
Sumendra

Hi Masa,
Our design is as follows:
1. ordering is done on phone with the user giving the vendor their P-card number.
2. The first system step is that p-card compant sends the card statement to SRM
3. P-card workflow is trigerred ( In this workflow, the requirement is to have 3 users - the P-card holder , the manager of the P-card holder , and the accounts payable person. The activities doen by each will be :
P-card holder : Change account assignments. Need to attach the receipts and other supporting documents to the workitem
Manager of the P-card holder: Just a business requirement
Accounts payable person : To monitor the account changes by the P-card holder
So I am reasking the questions:
1. If we use only the financial invoice process and not procurement process, is this desigh OK?
2. Can approval manager attach attachments when they get a workitem in P-Card workflow
3. Can P-card workflow pick up 3 approvers - P-Card holder, the manager, and the Finance person

Offsetting account showing as * mark pls see the screen shot

Dear floks pls give me some inputs
we need to provide a report to colleagues Tax affairs when it relates to
the nature of the recordings on the accounts 3140600010/4150400010 2013. To do
this we used the FAGLL03 and with a layout with Offst.acct / Name Offs.
Account.
Unfortunately, in the transaction of these two accounts are in the field of
postings that Offst. Acct marked with the * sign, which makes analysis
impossible. (In general, are clearing supplier, customer or GL, but we need to
know exactly)
Is there a possibility to see all the Offsetting Account?
why the offsetting account is not showing
pls urgent

Hi
Check if the document which are showing * in the offsetting field have more than one account. Generally this issue happens with the coding for the BTE implementation.
Thanks & regards

PL30 -Posting Balancing issue for postings across consolidation groups

Hi All
Greeting for the Day
We have implemented PL30 Upload for consolidation groups ,User is trying to post cross consolidation Groups as per one sample file with fields in the order mentioned below
100     2009     09
Cons Group/Doc type/C/i Activity/company/FS Item/movement type//investee company/Period value in GC
GABCD     301     05     ABCD     11610C     125          IJKL     -500
GWXYZ     301     05     EFGH     60102C     125          EFGH     500
now ABCD& EFGH belong to alotgether different consolidation groups GABCD & GWXYZ ,so while doing a flexi upload of the same system throws error
as below
Balance sheet/income statement balance 500,00 EUR
Message no. UCD1011
Diagnosis
The document to be posted is not completely in balance.
Entries involving items of the balance sheet or the income statement must always have a zero balance to ensure that both the balance sheet and the income statement are balanced, respectively. This is not true in this case.
System Response
Entry cannot be posted.
Procedure
Correct the amounts for the balance sheet items and/or income statement items.
So our understanding of the same is that for this kind of entry to balance at Legal entity level we need to have an offsetting account entry created on the flexi upload file
But want to know if there is any automatic way of doing the same without making users enter an offsetting entry
ANy other suggestions are welcome as well as there are lot of manual postings at this time which are time consuming so we want to cut it down by using Flexi upload
Rgds
Dheeraj

We have agreed with client on getting an offsetting account posting in the Flexi upload file
as nothing else works as it was against the accounting bit

PCA Postings

Hi Experts,
1. Can you please shed some lights on what are the transactions that will trigger the postings to PCA?
2. Looks like the payables and receivables reades the PC from the offset line items - what does it mean? and which transaction is it refers is it the open customer and open vendor items? or Open customer and vendor invoices?
Thank You
Moderator: Please, respect the rules and search SDN first + use help.sap.com

I am not concerned with AR or AP invoice.   My question pertains to payment for AR or AP invoice.
Let's take AP invoice:
Cr Vendor $100
Dr Expense $100
AP payment:
Dr Vendor   $100    -> CLEARED ITEM
Cr Cash       $100
Does it make sense if SAP program F.5D determines PC "DUMMY" for the vendor cleared item? It is not going to be transferred to PCA anyway since it is no more open item.
Thanks
Sanjiv

Open item management - offsetting entry

hi all,
i do not understand the sentence below of the word offsetting entry.
can have the double entry example of what does it mean by offsetting entry.
thanks
set up accounts with open item management if offsetting entries are to be assigned to the postings made to these accounts. postings to these accounts represent incomplete transactions.
set up accounts without open item management if no offsetting entry is to be made against a posting to this account.

Hi
There are certain entries , that have offsetting entry, ie - for evry debit there is a credit and vice-versa.These accounts are maintained on open item basis.One example will make u clear
GR/IR clearing account is an account that is maintained on Opem item basis.
when u received the goods against PO the entry is
Dr - Inventory account
Cr - GR/IR clearing account
Now this GR/IR clearing account need to be offset othetwise it will be shown in books of accounts unless and untill it is offset by a offsetting entr (here Dr entry as it is already credited)
After doing the invoice verification the entry wud be-
Dr - GR/IR clearing account
Cr - Vendor account
Now the account is offset and cleared.It will not come to the ooks of account if it is totally cleared
Similarly bank sub accounts(clearing accounts) are also treated in same way
If there is no offsetting entry for that, then there is no ned to maintain the account on open ietm basis
Hope it will make u clear
Regards
Anup
Points are welcome

Finance Postings with incorrect cost elements assigned

Hello,
I am implementing the SAP Plant Maintenance Module (PM) at my Company and Iu2019m running into issues with the finance team regarding the finance (FI) postings during the material goods issue (GI) to the order (MIGO) and financial settlement (KO88) of all order costs.
When a material is issued to the order via MIGO a material document is created with two financial GL postings; credit the inventory account and debit the material expense account. The posting made to the parts expense account contains a reference to a profit center and the PM Order. However my FI Group is saying the posting to the parts expense account must be accompanied by a Cost Center. My understanding of this is that the PM Order itself is an interim cost collector which is why itu2019s referenced in the posting and not a cost center. Knowing that once the settlement run is executed for the PM Order the costs collected in the order will be settled to the appropriate cost elements. Once settlement occurs the FI postings are generated for the materials and the costs are moved to the cost center of the equipment/PM Order. The two material postings generated are; credit to the material expense account (offsets the G.I. posting above) and a debit to the expense account along with the cost center of the equipment. The debit posting to the expense account is the posting that carries the cost center assignment and the one which I believe my finance team is looking however as I said above they expect the cost center assignment in all postings to the parts expense account.
Can anyone tell me what the SAP Standard approach is for CO postings during a Goods Issue to a PM Order and the CO postings for materials during settlement? Is it possible to post to a cost center and PM Order at the same and for what business reason would this be done?
Thank you,
Mike

Hi,
Spare parts or components are the company assets. So while issuing those components for consumption, asset account for materials would get value reduced & expense account for the material would get value added. Here no picture for Cost Center.
Only while doing the settlement, cost center will come into picture by getting the value from order to the Cost center.

Maheswaran.

Cross-company code postings - FI validation

Hi,
We start using the cross-company code postings (transaction OBYA) between company code A and company code B and have to give authorizations both company codes to the Finance users. The idea is to have a set of G/L accounts which are allowed to be used when company code A and B are posted via cross-company code posting.
SAP recommends to implement a validation in FI to restrict the Intercompany scenatios. I attempted to create a FI validation for complete document (call-point 3) with no success:
1)
IC Rule: BSEG-BUKRS = A and BSEG-BUKRS = B and BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
Prerequisite: TRUE
Check: IC rule
Message: E- Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
When I test it, the Intercompany clearing account configured in OBYA, and which is in ACCOUNTSET, shows up in the error message, which unwanted.
2)
IC Rule 1: BKPF-BUKRS = '0017' AND BKPF-BUKRS = '0005'
IC Rule 2: BSEG-HKONT IN ACCOUNTSET
Prerequisite: TRUE
Check: IC Rule 1 --> IC Rule 2
Message: E- Account & not allowed for cross-company postings
No error message is issued at all, even if the G/L account is not in ACCOUNTSET.
Please advise what I am missing.

Hi Nitin,
Thank you for your feeback.
I just wanted to clarify that the cross-company code posting is when company code A can intitiate a posting to company code B simultaneously (for example Intercompany re-charge, cash concentration, etc.). The trigger for cross-company code posting is the company code field on the line item. If company code A is in the header (BKPF-BUKRS) and at least one document line item filled up as company code B, the system created two documents for each company code, offsetting the Intercompany clearing account, configured in OBYA.
For example:
Posting via FB50: Leading company code = company code A (BKPF-BUKRS)
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200; Company code A (as a default)
Item 2: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100; Company code B (manually changed)
Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2;                        Amount 300; Company code A (as a default)
The systen creates two postings:
Posting 1: company code A
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 1; Amount 200;
Item 2: Credit; G/L account 2;                        Amount 300;
Item 2: Debit ; I/C Clearing Account;              Amount 100;
Posting 2: company code B
Item 1: Debit; G/L account 1; Cost Center 2; Amount 100;
Item 2: Credit;I/C Clearing Account;              Amount 100;
The only connection between the two is the cross-company code number (BKPF-BVORG), which assigned by the system once posted, as a logical connection.
I guess we could use a dedicated document type. If that's the case, how would the validation work then?
Coudl you please share more details on the BTE option?
Thank you,
Inna
