On Account Clearing Vendor/Customer

Dear fellows
We are to be implementing SAP ERP ECC 6 by u201CABACUS Consulting (Implementer)u201D here we enable the new GL functionality for segment reporting. We have a hot issue with on account clearing in both customer and vendor.
The scenario is that
When we clear on account customer through f-32 and vendor through f-44 the system generates extra line items those increase the debit and credit amount with their respective ledgers.
*Example*
Create customer invoice e.g 50,000 Rs. with profit center 10, segment 1000
Receipt on account payment from customer 50,000 Rs. with profit center 10, segment 1000
Clear the account with f.32 at that time clearing line items are generating.
Note:
According to our implementers u201CAbacusu201D this is the standard functionality of SAP and referred the SAP standard Note 69767 to prove their justifications.
The transaction is not relevant with given below difference clearing:
1.     Account Type
2.     open Item Account Number
3.     General Ledger Account
4.     GL Account Number
5.     Main Asset Number
6.     Company Code
7.     business Area
8.     business place
9.     Profit Center
10.     Partner Profit Center
11.     Credit Control Area
12.     Company ID
13.     Update Currency for General Ledger Transaction Figure
14.     Withholding Tax Code
15.     Certificate Number of the Withholding Tax Exemption
16.     Payee code
17.     Document Number for Earmarked Fund
18.     Earmarked Funds: Document Item

hello srikanth
thanks for showing ur intrepid.
invoice entries (fb60)
Vendor(10013)               10,000
Exp(41709006)          10,000
payment entries (fbcj)
vendor(10013)          10,000
Cash (16620006)               10,000
clearing entries
Vendor(10013)          10,000
vendor(10013)               10,000
the clearing document increase the DR and Cr amounts.
here, i want to clear one thing, this is not the SAP standard functionality because i have test this scenario on my IDES system and it is not generating any extra line items.
SAP released the notes 69767 to justify the clearing line items and the system exactly work according to the notes, but in our case any of the given options (mentioned in Notes and my above post) be not matched causes to generate any extra line items.

Reconciliation Account in Vendor/Customer Master

What is the function of reconciliation account in Vendor/Customer Master?
Regards
Kailash

Hi
The reconciliation account in the master record records all postings made to a subsidiary ledger.When you post items to a subsidiary ledger, the SAP system automatically posts the same data to the general ledger at the same time. Each subsidiary ledger has one or more reconciliation accounts in the general ledger. These reconciliation accounts ensure that the balance of G/L accounts is always zero. This means that you can draw up financial statements at any time without having to transfer totals from the subledgers to the general ledger.
You can use the reconciliation accounts to make settings:
You can use the reconciliation account to configure the screens for posting items to customer or vendor accounts. Using the reconciliation account you could, for example, suppress the fields for entering exchange rate hedges if these types of transaction are not made.
You can also use the reconciliation account to specify which currencies you can use when posting to the corresponding customer or vendor accounts.
You usually enter the local currency in the master record. Postings can then be made in all currencies to the customer and vendor accounts that the reconciliation account is assigned to. However, you can also enter a foreign currency key in the master record of the reconciliation account. If you do this, you can only post to the relevant customer and vendor accounts in the foreign currency specified.

Change in Reconciliation Account of Vendor/Customer

Hi Experts,
Can any one please tell me the scenarios where in we change the reconciliation account for the customer and vendor. If we change, what are the precautions we have to take in terms of transferring balance or open items from old reconciliation account to new reconciliation account?
Thanks,
SravanK

Hi,
There is no problem to change the account number in the vendor or customer master data, that is :
All Document Items that were created in the old account will be posted in the same old account when you have a payment posting, compensations, etc.
All document created after the change will be posted in the new account as well as the payment postings, compensations and others.
The system will separate the postings in accordance with the moment at the documents were created.
You can do a test in the development client before you do the change in the production.
For example :-
You can create a new reconciliation account because you want the G/L accounts to separate out sales. Just switched the setting in Customer Master and off you go. SAP will recognized the old account for the old postings and used the new account for any new postings.
You should run balance sheet adjustment program after any reconciliation account change.
The system performs any adjustments required due to the change of reconciliation accounts or G/L accounts. The items from the old reconciliation accounts are allocated to the new accounts.
Since you cannot post to the reconciliation accounts directly, the postings are made to temporary adjustment accounts.
These adjustment accounts should be displayed along with the relevant reconciliation account in the balance sheet. The postings are then reversed after the balance sheet has been created.
The program for sorting the payables and receivables makes the necessary adjustments automatically. This means that you have to define the adjustment account numbers and the posting keys for these postings in the system.
If you purchase and install the FI-LC Consolidation application and have bought up a previous customer or vendor (thus also taking on his/her payables and receivables), please refer to the note in the report documentation on changed reconciliation accounts. To define the account numbers, select the activity Define adjustment accounts for changed reconciliation accounts in the Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable Implementation Guide.
You should only run this program if your new reconciliation account is classified differently from the original in your FS. e.g.. AR to Intercompany accounts. It will just reclassify the existing balance. The line items will not be transferred. If not then no need to run the program at all.

Clearing vendors/customer with S/L indicators

Hi,
I'm tring to clear two items (with S/L indicatrs) with difference.
I would that the automatic item, in which is posted the difference, use the S/L indicator too.
At the moment this not happened: the system use a different PK (without S/L indicators) to post the vendor residual item/debit
Through OB41, i define those PK as "Special GL" but this time the system give me the error "Special G/L indicator not defined or incorrect".
Someon could help me?
Thanks in advance
Alberto

Thanks a lot for your attention
Here my case:
In F-44 for the same vendor and the same S/L indicators i have two items:
H 1000u20AC
S 900u20AC
So i tried too clear with a difference of -100
The system propose me automaically this postings:
vendor S 100u20AC PK 29 with S/L indicators 4 (correct)
vendor H 100u20AC PK 34 without S/L indicators (wrong)
these posting is wrong. Here the correct posting:
vendor S 100u20AC PK 29 with S/L indicators 4
vendor H 100u20AC PK 34 with S/L indicators 4
How con i fix this problem through FBKP?

How to make the cost center or WBS field optional for Vendor/customer line?

Dear experts:
Does anyone has the experience of releasing WBS or cost center fields to be optional for the customer or vendor line item?
I've tested in system, neither the field status control in GL account master data nor the FSG in posting key worked, I can't let the WBS field to display in the screen and ready for input.
So my conclusion is that the FSG control in not completely effective for customer/vendor line, it there any other method to let WBS to be optional in custer/vendor line items?
Our purpose for changing that is that we're using joint venture accounting, we need to let users to input a cost object for system to derive joint venture information. please do not suggest deriving JV information using other methods, because we're dealing with a special case, i.g. in a cross-company document, only a customer/vendor line in our company, so it's impossible to split JV information from offset lines, anyway, please help me out directly with my issue.

Hi, Lu:
If I understand your question correctly, you want to modify the FSG of recociliation account of Vendor/Customer to make sure Cost Center/WBS field display in transaction F-22/F-43 for example, right?
I am not sure whether it is possible, I also tried in ECC6.0 but failed to show these two fields. And I think that doesn't make sense to assign CO object to AP/AR reconciliation account, but assign it to Revenue/Expense account in following line items.
And You can use New General Ledger functionality Document Splitting to derive corresponding CO object information to Reconciliation Account line item, but it is enabled only in General Ledger level, not in subledger level.
If you find any other meaningful solution, please also share with us.
Thanks & BR, Lawrence

Vendor/ Customer Netting

Hi
My Vendor is also a customer, But as per my Business Requirement Vendor Payment terms are maintained 0002 like Within 14 days 3 % cash discount, Within 30 days 2 % cash dis and Within 45 days Due net,
But my Customer Payment terms is 0003 like Within 14 days 2 % cash dis, Within 30 days 1,5 % cash discount, Within 45 days Due net
How it will clear Vendor/customer Line items with Discount.

SAP will clear it autmoatically. You just need to have a tick in customer & vendor master for netting the customer & vednor balances.

Payment Run - Clearing between Customer and Vendor and Partner Bank Account

Is there a way to have the bank details for the payment to be pulled from the vendor master if an outgoing payment is created or from the customer master if an incoming payment is created? Our requirement is to consider both vendor and customer items during payment processing. In doing so, if the net of the clearing between the customer and vendor account results in an incoming payment, we want to use the bank details specified from the customer and if the net results in an outgoing payment, we want the bank details on the vendor master to be used.
As such we tick the box on Vendor master to clear with customer and tick the box on Customer master to clear with Vendor. We have defined 2 payment methods and entered both payment methods on both the customer and Vendor. We have also entered the different bank accounts on the payment transactions tab of the vendor and customer masters.
It seems regardless of resulting payment method chosen, the bank details are getting pulled from the vendor master.

Hi,
It is possible without any doing any kind of config or master data changes
While doing F-53, after entering all the required data in open item selection screen, after getting vendor open line items, go to menu item edit->select more.
There enter account type as D and company code (customer account no's comp code) and click on process open items
So you can choose the line items from the other company code's customer also.
Thanks,

F110 - Automatic payment Program Vendor /Customer Clearing

I have entered all the settings related to the Vendor/Customer clearing.
1.Entering the Vendor and Customer account numbers in the relevant master records.
2.Activating the clearing with Vendor/Customer in both master records.
But when F110 is executed,the customer line items are thrown in the exception list.The line items are all due on both the sides.When i reallocate the customer line item,it is giving the option of deducting it from the Vendor line item.
It has to do autmotically and pay the balance amount to the Vendor,instead of doing it manually.
Request to contribute your ideas for solving this issue.
Regards
Sunil

Hii Neeraj,
The error says it consists of the debit balance.But the settings are already made in both the vendor and customer records.But if we click the execption item and reallocate ,it is accepted to deduct it from the vendor line item.
Thanks and Regards

Is it possible to link several vendor accounts with a customer account?

Hello,
We have linked a vendors with his corresponding customer, so in FBL5N report, when inside this customer, we can see all of the receivable items of him as a vendor.
The question is: We have a customer account number that corresponds to several vendor accounts numbers. Is it possible to link these several vendor accounts with the customer account ?
We only want to see in FBL5N report both customer and vendors items.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,

Hi
It is not possible since Vendor and customer should be 1:1 and not 1:N
If you require clearing between the customer and vendor, the following requirements must be met:
The customer number must have been entered in the corresponding vendor master record.
The vendor number must have been entered in the corresponding customer master record.
The fields "Clrg with vend." or "Clrg with cust." must have been selected in both master records.

Profit Center on Vendor/Customer Reconn account

Hi,
I have a requirement where we need to replace the dummy profit center on the Vendor/Customer line item in the Accounting document with the profit center from the offset line item. The transactions that will be used MIRO, VF01 and FB60.
We cannot user 3KEI or 3KEH since the profit center is dynamic and needs to be copied from the second line item in the accounting document.
I have used substitution rules to achieve the same. But the same does not work for MIRO since the BSEG-BUZEI is not populated and I do not have access to the entire item table to do the modification in the program of substitution.
Please let me know if I can achieve the using substitution or is there any exit or BADI that can achieve the same.
Thanks,
Preetham S

Hi
If you have new GL, profit center is copied from the second line item. I believe, you need to check your splitting configuration throughly. There is no need for any BADI or other configuration settings. Follow the path
IMG>Financial Accounting(New)>General Ledger Accounting (NEw)> Business Transactions>Document Splitting>Extended Document Splitting>Define Document Splitting Method
Here in check the Item Categories and Base Methods assigned for Document Splitting. Pls check for your Splitting Method, for Business Transaction 0300 - Vendor Invoice and 0200 - Customer Invoice, if you have all the categories assigned. For example for Vendor Invoice Business Transaction 0300, you should have at least the following base categories assigned like, 03000 - Vendor, 05100 - taxes on Sales & Purchase, 05200 - With Holding Tax, 01100 - Company Code Clearing to give you an example.
Pls check the configuration. In case of doubt, pls revert back
Thanks & Best Regards

If a vendor is a customer then you need to
i) First create a master for the customer
ii) Mention the name of the created customer in the master data of the vendor in the control view under Account Control in the Customer Field (LFA1-KUNNR)The customer number is used by the payment and dunning programs for clearing open items. For line item display, the link to the customer line items is established using this number.
If you require clearing between the customer and vendor, the following requirements must be met:
$ The customer number must have been entered in the corresponding vendor master record.

Uploading Opening Balances for GL, Vendor & Customer Accounts

Hi Gurus,
We are currently on the verge of going live for a client and we need to upload the opening balances.
I am really not sure how to uploaded the opening balances...
Can anyone guide me in process/procedure to be followed... Request you to provide if you have some data template....

Hi,
The upload of GL Balances have to split into several steps:
1. Normal GL Accounts: In this case line items are not required and totals are to be updated in SAP. This can be done using GL fast entry if the number is not too high.
2. Open Item Managed GL Accounts: All the open line items are required to be uploaded in SAP from Legacy in order to clear them. Hence, a LSMW / BDC program has to be developed to upload the line items.
BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST - for GL/AP/AR
BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST - for AP
BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST - for GL
GL Balance
F-02 or RFBIBL00 or BAPI
Dr GL a/c Credit Data migration Account or Clearing Account
3. Customer & Vendor Open Items: All open line items in Customer and Vendor Accounts have to be brought in into SAP. For this also a LSMW / BDC program needs to be developed and upload the line items.
Vendor Balances
F-02 or RFBIBL00 or BAPI
Credit Vendor a/c (individually) and Dr Data migration Account or Clearing Account
Customer balances
F-02 or RFBIBL00 or BAPI
Dr Customers a/c (individually) and Cr Data migration Account or Clearing Account
4. Asset Accounting: In case asset accounting is implemented the individual balances of each asset (Gross Value and Accumulated Depreciation) have to be uploaded using transaction AS91. For this also you need to develop a LSMW / BDC program. Further, you also need to update the GL Accounts related to Asset Accounts with totals for each asset class T.Code OASV.
For uploading the Assets
AS91 -> for uploading assets in AA
OSAV --> for uploading assets in GL entry Dr Asset (individually) Cr Data migration Account or Clearing Account
You can use LSMW for uploading all these things
After uploading all, your data migration account will become zero
Thanks,
Rau
