Recon account change

hi all,
recently we created a customor and assigned a recon account to it in master data, but later it was found that the recon account assigned to it was incorrect.
couple of things that came up to my mind when this change in recon account was to be made.
1. what happens to all the entries already made to this vendor account
2. any implication on the open items.
kindly help on this
Regards
Arvind Kumar

Hi
You may change your recon account at any time.
Just find the comments of SAP on this--
On the balance sheet key date the open items from the old reconciliation account are allocated to the new reconciliation account using adjustment accounts. This allocation is carried out automatically when you create a sorted list of receivables and payables using report SAPF101.
So no need to  transfer any balances from old recon account to new recon account, you may test this on your testing system first if any issue.You can post invoices with one recon account and then change the recon account and do your required trnsaction to test your queries.
Any open items can be cleared as it is and it will not give any error of recon account as well.
Cheers

  • Customer recon account change

    Hello Friends,
    Our client had a requirement of changing the recon account for customer.
    Customer A (recon account 100) already had line items posted from last 2 years, these line items are cleared also.
    Now business wants the recon account for this customer A to be G/L#200. Along with that the reporting in balance sheet for this customer is required to be in recon GL 200.
    In order to achieve this we did the following:
    1. We made the balance of the customer account zero by transfereing the balance to temperory GL account. (Accounting document # 1200001 created)
    2. Changed the recon account in customer master from 100 to 200.
    3. Made reversal entry, i.e., transfered the balance from temperory GL account to customer account. (Accounting document # 1200002 created)
    4. In balance sheet now the balance is transfered to recon account 200.
    But now there is a problem, the customer statement has two open items (documents 1200001 & 1200002) when we are clearing these open items in the customer the impact created earlier with step 3 is getting reversed i.e., the balance from recon account 200 is getting nullified and its going back to recon account 100.
    We just want to clear the customer open item how can we do this?
    Please suggest.
    Regards

    Here is the official SAP help on the subject:- 
    Hello,
    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.  On the balance sheet key date the open items from the old reconciliation account are allocated to the new reconciliation account using adjustment accounts. This allocation is carried out automatically when you create a sorted list of receivables and payables using report SAPF101.
    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.

  • RE:Recon account change in MIRO

    Dear All,
    we one requirement for reconciliation account changes while doing the MIRO.
    Is it possible to change the recon account?
    If it is possible please replay.
    regards,

    Hi Sai,
    There is one option available to change the reconicliation account while posting transactions to vendor accounts (having the same reconciliation account). 
    1.  You need to map the alternate reconciliation for the reconciliation account maintained in the vendor master -  this is IMG activity.  I don't know the path for this configuration please check.
    2.  And for the reconciliation accounts you need to activate the reconciliation account ready for input check box in Create/bank/interest tab of GL Master.
    If you do these activities the vendor accounts having this reconicliation account can be changed at the time of transaction posting via MIRO / FB60 / etc., This is no specific to one vendor.
    Kind Regards,

  • Change recon account and transfer of Open items from Old recon a/c to New recon a/c.

    Hi Gurus,
    User want to change recon account for some customer  and also wants the open items to be transferred to new recon from old recon account. We follow the following process:
    Create a New GL Account for Adjustment Postings
    Change the Customer Master Data with regard to new  reconciliation account
    Update the FI Auto Postings Configuration: Trxn: OBBW (Transaction Key: A00: Transfer postings: changed recon. acct) as under:
    Old Reconciliation Account = Adjust Acct xxxx
    New Reconciliation Account = Adjust Acct xxxx
    4. Run FAGLF101 (ECC 6.0), with the intention, that the Balances / Open Items from OLD Recon would be MOVED to the NEW Recon.
    When we execute the last step (4) in “Message” appears the following message:
    “Account determination for transaction A00 is missing for account  PV PUC
    Message no. FR005”.
    Where PV corresponds to valuation area and PUC is our chart of account. Furthermore, we run the process of foreign currency valuation at the end of the month.
    What configuration is needed, If OBBW and OBA1 already been configured?.
    We appreciate any help.Thanks.

    Thanks for you answer.  The link was helpful; however, today we find a solution to the error. In OBA1 when in the transaction appears a window requesting the chart of account, we chose the valuation area (option yellow arrow) and completed the configuration. With this, i could solve my problem, it was simple.

  • Changing the recon account

    hi,
    i have an issue like to change the recon account in goods receipt transaction. right now the vendor is having (x  for domestic )recon account and  now he is purchasing the capital goods from the same vendor and in the system there is another recon account (Y for capital goods)
    so right now we want the goods receipt transaction to capital goods recon account
    please let me know the procedure

    Dear  Alapati Srinivas,
    You need to customize "Posting with alternative reconciliation account".
    The SPRO path is: Financial Accounting-> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-> Business Transactions-> Postings with Alternative Reconciliation Account-> Define Alternative Reconciliation Accounts (or T-Code S_ALR_87002480).
    In there you have to define account Y as alternative reconciliation account for X.
    Also in both X and Y master records you need to flag "Recon. acct ready for input" check- box in the "Create/bank/interest" tab.
    After that when you try to post incoming invoice the system will allow you to choose between X and Y as reconciliation account.
    Regards,
    Milen.

  • What is the path or TC for changing control of recon account in vendor

    Hi Gurus,
    Pl tell the TC or Path for changing the reconciliation account control for vendor as like in asset recon account.
    Pl itsUrgens
    Thanks in advance

    Hi:
             What i guess from your requirement that you need to control the field Reconciliation account, some users should be allowed to change the recon account and other should be restricted from doing so? If i am right then you can do that easily with the help of BASIS guy. F_LFA1_AEN     Customer: Change Authorization for Certain Fields will do the needful for you.
    Ask your Basis consultant to implement authorization's checks against F_LFA1_AEN for this Transaction code for the user profiles as desired by you. Before that do the necessary customization in SPRO as follows:
    Define your change groups in the task level menu of Financial Accounting >A/R & A/P -> Credit management -> Define Field group-> Assign Fields -> Groups.
    While assigning you can find the field LFB1-AKONT  . Your issue will be resolved.

  • Changing the setting of GL Account to a Recon Account

    Hi All,
    One of the GL Account is not set up as a reconciliation account (Asset). Meanwhile posting have been made to this account. It is now realized that it should be a recon account.
    Please let me know the steps involved and precaution to be taken to make it a recon account in the GL Master
    Thanks for your help
    Best Regards,

    Hi:
               To do so you must first make the GL account balance to nil by transferring all of its entries to a temporary GL so that re transfer could be made. Having made the balance of GL account NIL you can change the recon account balance to reconciliation account.
    Regards

  • Changing Customer recon account in Customer Master

    Hello everyone,
    I have come across an issue and I would sincerely appreciate some help. Points available.
    In the Sandbox, under the Customer Master, I have a customer (let's call it Customer # 55). The reconciliation account defined in the Acct Mangement area is 110000 (Trade A/R). This is incorrect. I need to change the recon acct to 150000 just for this customer 55. The rest of the customers all go to the original Trade A/R acct GL 110000. The problem is that the recon acct field is greyed out, so I am unable to change it.
    I have read on this forum that you cannot change it if transaction exist, however, I have not performed any transactions for this particular customer (#55). I have performed transactions for other customers that have posted to the 110000 Trade A/R acct. Since no transactions exist for Customer 55, is there  a way for me to change the recon account?
    I tried changing the settings in OB20, but that did not help. I would appreciate your thoughts.

    In OB20 on change customer account under company data, it the Recon account optional?
    Moreover, Account has been posted to,by changing the reconciliation account in the open item master record,  only , the proportionate values from the items open at the time of change are not posted to the new reconciliation account.
    <b>Which means it still should be possible to change</b>
    The documentation further reads
    "On the balance sheet key date the open items from the old reconciliation account are allocated to the new reconciliation account using adjustment accounts. This allocation is carried out automatically when you create a sorted list of receivables and payables using report SAPF101.
    The postings necessary are only carried out for G/L accounts and are cancelled on the first day of the subsequent month (balance sheet adjustment posting)."

  • Recon account ready for Input-Not possible to change during MIRO

    Hello
    We are on ECC 6.0
    System does not allow users to change Vendor Recon A/c during invoice verification through MIRO. Recon A/c field is greyed out under Details tab in MIRO.
    Recon Account has been declared as Ready for Input and Alternative Recon A/c has been mapped wrt GL A/c by assigning it an ID.
    However, i am able to change recon A/c during invoice booking through FB60 or F-43 t codes.
    What am i missing?
    Does sytem allow change of Recon A/c in MIRO? If yes, how?
    Thanks.
    Vimal

    Hi, check vendor rec. account for this Company code, then check Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-Business Transactions-Postings with Alternative Reconciliation Account-Define Alternative Reconciliation Accounts
    If there exists such Defining, so check may be Alternative account just for Aut.posting, or forbided for posting in this Currency

  • Change the Recon Account Type

    Hi,
    The users are trying to post the entry into a GL Account directly using the T Code FB50. However, the system gives the error message -
    "Account XXX in Company Code XXX is marked as a reconciliation account for account type "D" and cannot therefore be directly posted."
    When we check the GL Master using the T Code FS00, we find that the GL Code has not been marked for automatic posting. Could you please advise as to how can we change the Account Type from Recon to non Recon type. This GL Code is not intended by the users for any of the Subsidiary accounts such as Vendors/Customers.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    Hi Rajjul,
    recon account measn you can not directly post to this GL account. You need to select customer and post to this customer and system will post amount to this GL account which you have assigned in customer master.
    If you want to make direct posting to this GL account, need to remove recon type from this GL.
    Go to FS00, select GL account. Go to 'control data' tab abd remove recon account for acc type as customer. Put blank.
    and save.
    before you do this plz make sure that you have not done any kind of entry on this account.
    Now system will allow you to post directly on this GL.
    I hope this helps you. Assign points if useful.

  • Changing AP recon. account in MIRO

    Is it possible to change the AP recon. account in MIRO by different conditions (ex. PO account assignment) ? Thanks a lot!!

    No its not possible.
    As per the settings in GL master ( reconciliation account for Vendor), it will always check that the account used as reconciliation account is seated in Vendor Master data.
    The postings will go for a toss, dont try.
