""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

assignment, and repost the items. You can remove the old items by
archiving the documents""
CAN ANYONE SUGGEST ME HOW TO PROCEED OPEN ITEM MANAGEMENT WITHOUT USING NEW GL ACCOUNT MASTER,.
Thanks...DK..

Hi D.K
before runing the this program
1 ) make sure the balance of the amount for this account is zero.
2) block this account for further posting
3) run this program
4) unblock the account, then it will work

Hi Experts,
There is an issue about Open item Management activation for GL line items of FBLL03 for VAT GL code. Unexpectdly do not check the open item management in VAT GL account Master record while created the GL master record in 2007. Now we activated Open item Management in GL master record for same GL to nulify the balances with setoff account and same reversed after activation. Now issue is how it is possible to activate Open item Management for previously posted documents ? Is there any standard SAP Program for ECC 6.00 Release SAP _APPL 600.
Please revert.

Change GL Account from Open Item Managed into non-Open Item Managed

In the former R3 environments, release 4.6 there was the program RFSEPA03 to turn off open item management.
However, in ECC 6.0 this program is blocked and there seems to be no possibility to change a GL account back to non-open item mgt.
Please comment,
Kind Regards WR

Yes .. I Agree with you ...
Actually I accidently, did not check the GL first, but run the ZRFSEPA02 first .... because of that, my GL is check as an open item and as a recon account too ...
any solutions ?

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 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).

Fagl_fc_valu for open item managed accounts

Hi,
I have an open item managed account and I have activated the delta posting logic. In January, an entry was made and not cleared. The open item managed account was valuated at month end and an entry was posted to an adjustment account and unrealized gain.
With the delta logic, I have not adopted the monthly reversal.
Early in February, the item is cleared. The document created posts an amount to realized gain and an offset to the adjustment account.
At month end February, I run fagl_fc_valu and there are two entries created. Effectively, they reverse themselves with entries to the balance sheet adjustment account and the realized gain account.
First question, why do I get these two entries In the text description, one says RXDAdjustment Posting. The other says RXDTRAAdjustment Posting.
Second question, how do I get the January entry to unrealized gain to reverse. Will this need to be a manual entry or is there something with configuration that can fix this.
Thank you

As per the New GL design it is not possible to post an entry specific to non lead ledger to a GL which is open item managed. The reason is very clear. In non lead ledgers we do not do clearing we only do adjustments entries. Clearing can only be done in a lead ledger. Ask yourself about making a payment to a vendor from non lead ledger. It is not at all sensible.
What you need to do to handle this scenario is to create a new GL (if it is a B/S account then mark it as line item managed and in the text you need to mention that this account is specific to non Lead ledger postings. There is no way in ECC 6.0 to flag a GL for non lead ledgers only. Once you create this account you can post an entry to this using T Code FB50L. From financials standpoint you can club this new GL in the same group or number range where you have the same account with open item managed checkbox.
SAP is working to extend the clearing functionality to non lead ledgers but I am not sure which enhancement pack will have this feature. Till that time you need to follow the solution as described above.
Hope this helps

Open Item Management changed retrospectively

We currently have a series of GL account set up in our production environment which do not have the Open Item Management ticked. As there are currently posted open items and the account balance is not zero we cannot change the flag retrospectively.
Rather than creating new GL Accounts, is there a way we can move the GL docs to a 'dummy' GL account, alter the required GL, then re-apply the docs to the original account (and delete the dummy)?
The change in the flag could cause an issue with re-applying the docs and we're not particularly keen on the idea of changing the info on the GL Docs. Any ideas how we could resolve this?
Thank you

Hi Nicola,
If you are ECC - =>EHP3 SAP Standared provided T.Code for activating open items for already posted entries.
T.Code: FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP
Program: FAGL_SWITCH_TO_OPEN_ITEM
Pleasse Let me know still you have any issue on it.

Hey
If you are on R/3 upto 4.7 or on ECC 6.3 or above It is possible with execution of a single program
for other versions you would need to get zero balance and then activate open item management through FS00.
use program RFSEPA02 for R/3
or use FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP transaction from ECC 6.3 onwards
6.3 = ecc 6 with enhancement pack 3

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.

FH087 - Remove open item management to GL Accounts

Dear All,
I need to remove open item management to few GL Accounts. The balance is Zero now.
I removed the open item management and try to save the GL Account and the error meesage showing with FH087 - You cannot change Open Item setting.
Requesting help and guidelines from the forum.
Thanks in advance,

Hi
Please refer to below answers:
1) the OSS note 175960, mentions the afftected releases for software component SAP_APPL is till release 600. Currently we are at SAP_APPL 604 level 07. Is this note applicable to us?
Yes, it can be used.
2) Will the program ZFSEPA03 / RFSEPA03 converts the current open item line items to line item display?
The report does the following:
1. Sets a posting block to the GL account.
2. Selects all open items and deletes the XOPVW indicator in tables BSEG and BSIS
3. Deactivates the XOPVW flag in the GL account master data.
4. Deletes the posting block.
3) After executing this program, if suppose later any of the clearing document for the cleared items in the account got reversed. Will this items become open item again? if yes, then it won't be possible to clear these items as the gl won't be open item managed.
I am not sure about this step, but you will have (old) cleared items in the document tables (BSEG/BSAS) which does not match the current account settings (as these items are from the dateBEFORE the change took place). But this does not have any influence on postings in the daily business.
4) Any pre requisite like the gl account should have zero balance or there should not be any open items, before executing this program ZFSEPA03.
The subsequent deactivation of open item management is not that critical.
It is not necessary to bring the account balance to zero, you can execute ZFSEPA03 without any correction postings. And it is even not necessary to change the master data manually, this will be done by the program.
5) is there any other transaction similar to FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP for deactivating the open item managed tick in ECC 6.0 with NEW GL active.
You will do it by running the mentioned report.
The RFSEPA03 or your 'Z' version will not have any influence on the NewG/L tables likeFAGLFLEXA Only the currently open items will set to normal items.

ECC6 - Line item display and Open item management Questions.

Hi All,
For SAP ECC6, although I do not maintain line item display and open item management for Recon GL (for Debtor), I still can use FAGLB03 to view the GL balances and even Drill down to line item level by double click the value from FAGLB03 until line item level.
Questions:
Could anyone confirm whether my assumption below, true?
1) If Line item display (Tcode: FS00) is ON, then the data will be stored at table: BSIS
2) If NO open item management, then there should be no data to be stored at table BSAS for thaty particular GL account
3) BSAS will only have data, after clearing was carried out ... move from BSIS to BSAS.
In ECC 6
4) FAGLB03 can drill down to line item level, although the GL (Tcode: FS00) was NOT set open item management and line item display is because from FAGLB03 when drill down to line item level, it actually extract data from BSEG, right?
Additionally, we can use FBL3N to check the line item data for NON line item display GL as well.
In SAP R/3 4.7, if not mistaken, if the GL is NOT line item display and open item management, we cannot drill down the line item reading and CANNOT use FBL3N to check the line item data.
Kindly advise on these.
Thanks.
sbmel

1) If Line item display (Tcode: FS00) is ON, then the data will be stored at table: BSIS
BSIS is an open items table. You can see all GL open items there. GL's which are not open item managed can't go here
2) If NO open item management, then there should be no data to be stored at table BSAS for thaty particular GL account
Yes. Your understanding is correct
3) BSAS will only have data, after clearing was carried out ... move from BSIS to BSAS.
Yes. In case of partial clearing data will be there in both the tables BSIS & BSAS
4) FAGLB03 can drill down to line item level, although the GL (Tcode: FS00) was NOT set open item management and line item display is because from FAGLB03 when drill down to line item level, it actually extract data from BSEG, right?
These are New GL reports and report is based on document split object. if your document split is active at segment level then you can see line item report at segment level using FAGLL03. These reports has no link to FS00 settings.
Hope this helps
