Open Item Managment problems.

HI ALL,
I have to create normal GL account, now i want to change reconciliation account. then I changed the gl account balance zero.
eventhough I got a error Account balance =0 but Open Item exist in GL
Saw so many solution in google, but I could not understand. and block GL account then run the program RFSEPA02, but it is not working i got pop box the exit that screen.
Please give advice.
Moderator: Please, search SDN

It is not advisable to change a GL account from non open item to open item since when the documents were posted, the open item table were not updated.
What is normally recommended here is create a new account and transfer the applicable open line items to the new account.

Open item manage accounts clearing problem

Dear experts,
We have created some of the liability gl accounts master without open item management. After a period of time we have converted the gl accounts into open item management by executing the programme RFSEPA02. Now we are going to clear the old documents, which are posted before open item management conversion.
Now the problem we are facing is - document splitting for the old document.
Kindly send your openions to clear the old documents or again we are ready to convert the open item management to non-open item management for the GL accounts. How to do it.

Open Item Management Issue

We have an issue with the BSIS table and open items management flag. Even without the GL account being flagged as Open item in FSS0, entries still show as open items in BSIS table. If you run FBL3n, the same account shows cleared with a green check mark and no red indicator. The problem is how to stop the BSIS showing this as open items and why its doing that way? Also, if you have any way of cleaning up BSIS so that only OIM managed accounts show and they clear automatically.
Can you provide a step by step procedure to fix this issue.
Thanks for your help

Hi,
   You do not understand the useage of the table BSIS. It is a secondary index for line items and not just an index for open items.
   For OIM accounts    BSIS = Not cleared, BSAS = Cleared.
   For Not OIM, but with Line item management = All items in BSIS.
Kind regards

GL Open Item Managed Flag Changed Historically - Orphan items left on acct

Back in 2000 for some of our GLs the Open Item Managed flag was changed. Initially it was not checked but now it is. We know that SAP doesn't really let you do it anymore but apparently back then whoever did it didn't follow what was then the suggested procedure. As a result we have an account balance of say 500,000 which I can see in FS10N however if I run it for all open items in FBL3N I get 450,000 because 50,000 are not open or cleared. I can't go in and clear these off against anything because they are not open item managed. Is there a program that can be ran to make them open?
I thought RFSEPA01 would do the trick and after running it in our QA environment the log states:
Line Items Year Remark
         1 2000 Document selected
         1 2000 Document changed
However when I go to F-03 it still won't bring the documents in as it says they are not open item managed.
Sure enough if I go look in table BSIS at the document the Open Item Managed flag is not set.
What's the best procedure to resolve these? Do I have to create a Z program that will flag the Open Item Managed field (XOPVW) and then clear these documents off against something?
TIA

Hello,
Please check the SAP note 175960.
As explained in the note 175960, is not possible to subsequently
activate the open item management under some conditions.
With NewGL, the split information on open items is stored in
FAGL_SPLINFO and FAGL_SPLINFO_VAL which are only updated when the
document is being posted through active document split. Also RFSEPA02
does not update these tables.
If you are NOT using NEW/GL with doc split (inactive), you may create
add-on report by copying RFSEPA02 and adding modification on the report
per note 175960.
As the note states, if you decide to take RFSEPA02 approach,
please do so at your own risk. Possible problems (such as data
inconsistency) can only be handled by SAP within chargeable remote
consulting.
All important information is written on note 175960.

Open Item Management Error

FI experts,
I am getting teh following error when trying to post thru an interface, "Account Type M and G/L with open item management not permitted"
I went to FS00 and tried to check off Open item management, but account gave me an error, that it canno change it.
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hello,
You cannot create both an account as a Reconciliation Type (M) as well as open item management for an account.
The system only accept either of one.
In your case, though balance is ZERO, they are not cleared against each other. It is the reason you are still facing the problem.
If ther is no open item management check box, then copy program RFSEPA02 to ZRFSEPA02 and append the initialization control.
If there is already open item management but you want to remove then copy RFSEPA03 to ZRFSEPA03 and append the initialization control.
Do the following steps:
1. Block the account for postings (all check boxes) in FS00
2. Run the customized Z program (Give the company code and account number)
3. Unblock the account for postings (remove all check boxes) in FS00
Take help from your ABAPer to stopping the initilization error check.
Hope this solves your issue.

Reset & reverse document with open item managed and none open item managed

Dear forum,
I would like to confirm the below.
If i have a posted document where the double entry has open item managed account and none open item managed account and where the open item managed account is cleared, how can i reverse this document.
The problem now is FBRA cannot reset and reverse (as the document partly has none open item managed account) and FB08 also cannot reverse (as part of the account is open item managed account and it is cleared).
Besides manually reverse via FB01, any other method?
Thanks
Moderator: Please, avoid asking basic questions

Which document are you trying to clear using FBRA? You should reset the "clearing document" using FBRA; not the original document that has one open item and one non-open item. Once you reset the clearing document using FBRA, you should then be able to reverse the original document (the one that has one open item and one non-open item) using FB08.

Post open items with clearing for a account nt previously open item managed

Hi,
We have a current VAT account which was not open item managed till April 2008. Since the account has a zero balance we were able to make it open item managed from May onwards.
Using transaction code FS10N we see that there are some items which are open (type SB and SA). We want to post these items with clearing.
Moreover the postings made in the vat account are done every month but they are manual postings only using T.Code FB50 and as checked using the transaction code OB40.
We are not also allowed to run program RSEPA02. as this is not a standard program and not recommended to be run by SAP.
Could anyone please sujjest how can we post the previous items with clearing.
Thanks and regards,
Priyajit.

Hi,
In this case when you are shifting account from open item to non open item all the open item debit and credit side to a dummy account and when account is converted into open item you have to reverse the earlier entries.
Check this with what exactly you have done.
Assign points if solved the problem.
Warm Regards

How to change status of open item management check box??

Dear Members,
There is a GL which was not defined as Open Item Management Previously.
Now we Identified and we wanted to define it as Open Item Managed account.
For ex take ..Payable Account
say there is one line item with credit balance ..to make this accoount balance as 0 (ZERO) ..we reversed the original entry ..we tried to select open item check box..
but system is not allowing us to change ..instead its giving msg"Account balance is zero but stil open items exists"
i dont understan this ..
now how to solve this problem
thanks & regards.

Hi suja csc,
Thanks for the points : )
OK it's very easy to transfer the balance. Either u have already customised program to upload data or if the data is "little" u can just manual posting using FB01. just zerorise all balances in the old account.
Eg. old journal:
01 MAN        NIAGA SDN.              1,975.00
50 80070010   Rental-Car Park              1,975.00-
To transfer:
17 MAN        NIAGA SDN.              1,975.00-
40 80070010   Rental-Car Park              1,975.00
Means, the account will be zero.
Hope this will help you.
TQ

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).

Open Item Management for GL Account

When I run transaction code FAGL_FC_VAL - Foreign Currency Valuation a certain GL account is not apprearing on the list generated by the report. The Open Item Management checkbox is selected for this GL account in the master file, whereas the other GL accounts that appear in the report this option is not selected.
Can someone explain if this could be the casue of the problem and why the selection of this checkbox "Open Item Management" will prevent it from appearing on the report .

Hi Niketa,
The reason you are not able to see those accounts is Foreign currency valuation covers the following accounts and items:
Foreign currency balance sheet accounts, that is, the G/L accounts that you run in foreign currency.
The balances of the G/L accounts that are not managed on an open item basis are valuated in foreign currency.
So the accounts that are managed on open item basis are not shown to you.

Shakeel

Open item management in GL master data

Hi
We created GL master data in 2000 and that time "open item management" was not selected.
Later in 2004 we needed "open item management" so we canged settings.
now the problem is we are not able to see cleared items for that GL A/C.
even if we clear also it is still showing open item only.
Thanks in advance

prasad

Hello
If you have created a GL account without selecting open item managment check box and lateron you found that it should have been maintained on Open item basis,the system will not alow you to mark the checkbox as open item mangt if some open items still exist.
First make the account balance to zero by clearing the account.Even if the system issue a error msg try these:
Block the relevant account for posting in the company code
Run program ZFSEPA03
Unblock the account
In earlier versions there was a program which when run allows you to maintain OI for future transactions, but I am not sure about this now
