Payment difference

Dear Guru's
I need a help from you.
I am trying to do the payment differnce, but it is now happening automatically when I am doing F-53. It is asking me to give the GL Account mannually rather that taking the payment difference to a seperate GL Account which I have assigne. The scenario is as follow.
We have liability to a vendor for 1002 but the payment what we intend to make is only 1000 the balance we wanted automatically go to the payment different GL which already assined.
In this regards I would like to know :-
a. How the entry need to be passed in F-53.
b. Is there any other setting which I need to do apart from assigning GL account for payment differnce in SPRO.
Please help me sort out this.
Thanks in advance
Deepak

Hello Deepak AR,
For automatic posting, when posting documents, the system automatically adds line items to manually entered items as needed. For example, the tax amount, the cash discount amount, and profits or losses from foreign currency translations (exchange rate differences) can all be calculated and posted automatically by the system. You can decide that accounts to which these automatic postings are made can only be posted to automatically. This will prevent any manual postings to such an account. A definition like this would be useful for tax accounts, if, for example, you had no subsequent tax debit to post.
For each automatic posting, you must define the G/L account to which the system is to post and the rules according to which the system generates the posting. For example, you can differentiate the tax posting according to tax codes. The system will then post to a different G/L account for each tax code.
You can manually add to automatic postings. If you want to do this, you must select the Supplement auto. postings field in the master record of the account to which the system posts automatically. The field status group in the G/L account master record determines the fields that the system offers for supplementary account assignment.
From your explanation, it seems you have not defined the rule for posting. Please go and check in SPRO Financial Accountin-> Account Receivable and Payable->Business Trasaction->Outgoing Payment->Automatic posting.
Hope I had been able to help you. Please assign points..

Payment Difference by reason code charge to separate GL Account

Dear All
We have set reason code for payment difference with indicator charge to separate account. Also we assign separate account for each reason code in OBXL. When we try to post incoming payment with difference and assign the reason code system ask to do the account determination for Transaction ZDI. We already have settings for ZDI with reason code. When we enter one more entry for transactions ZDI without reason code system charge it to the account but in this way we cannot achieve our objective to post the difference to different account according to reason code.
Please advise
Thanks and Best Regards

What do you mean by "hierarchy"? I'm not aware of any hierarchies within Transaction Management.
You need to set up an account assignment reference for the different portfolios (IMG activity "Define Account Assignment References").
Then you need to set up the determination logic for assigning the account assignment reference to the transactions based on portfolio (IMG activity "Define Account Assignment Reference Determination (OTC Transactions)" or "Define Account Asst Reference Determination (Securities/Listed Derivatives)", depending on product type.)
Finally, you need to set up the account determination to assign the GL accounts to the different account symbols for each account assignment reference (IMG activity "Define Account Determination").

Payment Difference Configuration - Accounts Receivable

Hi SAP Gurus,
I have the following configuration set for payment differences.
-OBA3: Customer / vendor tolerance: Amount: 5.00, Percent: 99.9%, Adjust discount by 1.00
- OBA4: Tolerances for Users: Amount: 10.00, Percent: 10%, Cash Discnt Adj.to 10.00
- OBXL: Reason Code 01, GL account 600010
With these settings, in F-28 (post incoming payment transaction), I was able to clear a $100,000 customer invoice with a posting of just $50, with the residual item created using reason code 01.
The posting I get is
Cash -                                 Dr 50
Expense Account 600010 (maintained in OBXL)                               DR 99,950
Customer u2013                               Cr 100,000
Looks like the tolerance group setting is not working. It should not allow me to post a payment difference more than $5, as per the above setting. Can anyone let me know what is wrong with the settings? Should I look at anything else?
Thanks,
Ram

Change discount base in F-53 for payment difference

Dear All,
Our user have created a vendor invoice of Rs110000., with W/H tax of Rs11000. Now, during F-53, the customer is only paying Rs49000. Now, the system should be picking up the payment difference value of Rs50000 (99000-49000) in the disccount base automatically. But in our case the proportionate value of W/H tax on payment difference is loaded on the payment difference and populated on the disc base field, that is -Rs50000+Rs5555.56(Rs11000/99000=0.1111*50000=5555.56)=Rs55555.56.
Can you plaese suggest me is there any way out to change the disc base value to the payment diff value , as the system is automatically picking it, and is coming in display mode.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I have checked OBY6 setting and Disc base is net value only. Please let me know if there is any other solution.

Permitted Payment differences - lockbox

Hi !
I have an very urgent situation...even though the incoming payment from the lockbox file is having a payment difference that is within the tolerance limit, ththe actual invoice is getting cleared and this payment difference amount is not posting to a GL account , instead its posting back on the customer account.
Ex: I have an incoming payment of 99.95$ for an invoice of 100$ and is within the tolerance limit( 1$) , then the difference 0.05$ should go to an GL account we specify in OBXL, but its getting posted as an open item on customer account
Please some one help me resolving this issue. I jsut have one day for golive.. please someone help me..
Thanks.

Hi Sairam ,
Actually I am facing eactly the same problem as you have described.
Did you find any solution for that
We are also close to GO-Live , your response is appreciated.

Payment difference configuration

Dear all,
I want to configure for payment difference of vendor. Steps to configure:
- OBA3: Customer / vendor tolerance: I set 500 for gain / Loss
- OBA4: Tolerances for Users: I also set 500 for revenue / expense
- OBXL: account determination for payment difference
But when I post outgoing payment with difference 20, system always raise message: "The difference is too large for clearing". I dont know if I miss any steps ?
Thank you very much for your help,
Sylvecat.

Dear Sylvecat,
System will check the Gain/Loss and percentage in "area of permitted payment differences".
example:
you post document with below:
expense 1000 USD/ Vendoer 1000 USD.
and you defined:              Amount     Percent
                         Gain              10      0,1 %
                         Loss              10      0,1 %
then system will campare the two values as below:
                                      Amount     Percent   allowed difference according to percentage
                         Gain              10        5 %
                         Loss              10        5%       1000 * 5% =5 USD
Due to 5 < 10, so system only allow difference 5 USD to be posted automatically when clearing.
so please check your system data accordingly.
With Best Regards,
Gladys Xing

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

Permitting Payment Differences ???(in tolerances for employees)

Hello,
Good morning
While defining parameters in Permitting payment differences in Tolerance specification for employees, what is the meaning of Cash discount adjusted to. Is this block (payment diff) related to line items of customer and vendor transactions or for GL accounts?? I need a complete clarity on this concept.
Thanking you,
Suresh

Hi Suresh
At the time of clearing the payments received from the customers, the system checks the payment differences and corrects with the cash discount posting as long as the cash discount amount is large enough for the adjustment. The value you specify here is used for differences that represent a gain/loss.
Please refer teh SAP Help site which provides useful information

AR Invoice versus AR Invoice + Payment - difference on table level

Hi guys,
Is there any way to determine whether an invoice in OINV is just an invoice or and invoice and payment? By invoice and payment, I refer to the menu option in SAP and not just a reconciled invoice. Unfortunately, it is the same object code. From looking at the table and system information, the only difference I can spot is that the Invoice+payment has a different form id.
Does anyone know of a method?
*Edit*
Is OINV.ISICT a reliable mechanism?
Thanks.
Regards,
Simon

Seems like OINV.isICT is the silver bullet
Thanks for the reply.

Cutomer payment difference.

Dear All,
My requirement is as follows
There was a payment from customer with small difference and we have cleared.
Now the difference is reflected in the customer account as open item.
How can i clear that difference amount.
Eg
Invoice amt : 4030.02
Payment received : 4030
The entry i get after f-28 is
40 Bank Dr 4020
06 Customer ac Dr 0.02
15 Customer ac Cr 4030.02
In f-28 i have option "charge off diff" i have processed the diff amt.
But the diff of 0.02 is displayed as Open item in FBL5N.
How can i clear this amt to the customer.
Revert
Regards
SAP4ME

Dear SAP4ME,
When you do the clearing in F-28, you used the "charge off diff" and posted to the customer account again, so the small difference was kept as open line items, becase reconciliation account is controled as "open line items management", as far as you post any line item to this account manually, it will be considered as open line item.
For this case when you do clearing, you could define P/L account for ZDI in T-cd:OBXl ( for example the P/L account for deducting the small difference which was not Open line item management in FS00 ).and also maintain the tolerance group , then if there is a small difference existed, system will post it to ZDI( this P/L account) automatically.
The following two solutions can be used for your reference:
1. Reset the reverse the clearing doc in FBRA, after maintaining ZDI and tolerance group , then reclearing this Open line item again.
2. clearing the small difference in F-28.
Hope the above information can help you to solve this issue!

F-53 payment difference

Hi,
I use F-53 to partially pay a vendor invoice, the SAP post the difference with posting key:36.
It can be configured or hardcoded?
In T-code:OBXH, can define posting key for clearing customer/vendor/GL account. I did not configure postin key:36 there, so i am confused.

Hi,
Go to OBXK. Select BSP transaction and find your GL account. After this go to BNK transaction and take a look on posting keys.

Unadjutsed Small Differences - Incoming Payments

Hi,
While processing the incoming payments, in case of small differences in cents, there had been set up a tolerance limit, due to which the small differences upto the tolerance limit get posted to a seperate GL Account. The users now want the tolerance limit to be revised. How can we check the same and revise? Would appreciate if any one of you could advise the T Code and brief procedure for the same.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,

Hi,
Please check the following
IMG > Financial Accounting (New) > Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable > Business Transactions > Incoming Payments > Manual Incoming Payments > Define Tolerance Groups for Employees and Define Tolerances (Customers)
Check the permitted payment differences for Exchange Gain and Loss.
I hope this will be useful for you

Jigar
