Recon. Account for Special G/L credit posting

Hi everybody!
We need to post a line item with these settngs:
posting key = 19 (Special G/L credit)
account = customer code
special g/l = A (Down payment)
When Enter is pressed and detail screen of the line item appears, the G/L account field is disabled... but we need to change the G/L account assignment..
How can we achieve this? Thanks!

account type D for customers and  special GL  " A " for down payment
assign points if useful

  • Change GR/IR Account for Special Order PO Type

    I've had a request from our FI department.
    They would like a new PO type for special orders that will post to a different GR/IR Account.
    In our configuration, the GR/IR account is determined based upon valuation class of the article.
    But if they special order the same article using this new PO type, they would like it to post to a different GR/IR account.
    There doesn't seem to be a way to do this through configuration.  (If there is, I would love to know how.)
    I can't find a way to change the GR/IR account in the PO BAdi (ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST).  This BAdI would allow me to set the G/L Account Code, Profit and Cost centers but doesn't seem to have the GR/IR Account.
    Is there any BAdI or User-Exit that will allow me to maintain the GR/IR Account while creating a PO?
    Thanks,
    Deb

    Hi Deborah,
    You can do this by a FI substitution rule at item document level. Maybe a FI Consultant can help you.

  • Defining Accounts for Automatic Tax Payable Transfer Posting

    Dear all,
    I would like to know about accouting process of Accounts for Automatic Tax Payable Transfer Posting.
    Please give me a detail example about business that use this account
    Thanks so much
    Minhtb

    Hello,
    This scenario applies at month end.
    Say during the month you have posted payables are receivables resulting in the following balances on your tax accounts:
    Input tax account: 10.000 Dr
    Outpux tax account 12.500 Cr
    When you prepare your tax return at month end with report "Sales Purchases tax returns", it will print out all if your input and output tax transactions, detailing the total balances mentioned above.
    At the same time you can activate the tax payable posting option with help of the variant options. Besides the printout, SAP will then also automatically post the following document:
    Dr Output tax account 12.500
    Cr Input tax account 10.000
    Cr Tax payable account 2.500
    in other words, the input/output tax accounts are zero and the remaining (payable) balance is offet to a special clearing account, the "tax payable account". This account is then cleared against cash as part of e.g. bank processing when the payment is made and that ends the process.
    hope this clarifies, please do not forget to assign POINTS if this answers your question.
    Thanks

  • Can I change recon account for customer

    I found that recon account cannot be changed? Is there any alternative to do except creating another customer? Thx

    Hi,
    SPRO-SAP IMG-Financial Accounting-Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable-Business Transactions-Postings with Alternative Reconciliation Account-Define Alternative Reconciliation Accounts
      You can maintain alternative reconciliation account for every reconciliation account. and in FS00 choose option In create/bank/interest Recon.account ready for input. While booking invoice or payments you can manually change the reconciliation account.
    Hope it is clear,

  • Down payments (One recon account mapping to different special recon account

    Hi,
           I'm stuck in configuring special gl indicators for down payments for vendors.
    we have one recon account for vendor and there are 6 different gl for downpayments.
    but the down payment request takes in only one combination of recon and special gl
    Ex: U - 20000(A/P) -  14100(Prepayment - Rent)
          T - 20000(A/P) -  14102(Prepayment - Asset)
          M - 20000(A/P) -  14104(Marketing)
    I was able to configure special gl indicator for down payments but the down payment request "F" is the same for all the special GL (U,T&M)
    when the down payment request is made its show one account for all the special Gl indicator but on payment appropriate its posted in correct account.
    This was causing lot of confusion to the user. Please suggest  away to get around this.
    Secondly there is Accrued Liabilities  accounts how this should handled.
    Thanks for your support
    Regards
    Kalyan

    Hi Dominic,
             It not allowing to create another noted item indicator other than F (Error MSG; Down payments and noted items not possible for special G/L indicator I)

  • Change the GL Account Type to Non-Recon Account

    Hi, the users are trying to post the entries into the GL Account and the system is giving an error that the Account XXX cannot be directly posted to as the Account has been set as Recon Account for type D.
    Could you please advise as to how can we change the type of the GL Account.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    Hi
    My friend, the account XXX as mentioned by you is a reconciliation account which is used for real-time integration of accounts payable/accounts receivable subledger with General Ledger.  You cannot post to a reconciliation account and it is always updated automatically when a transaction is happening in a vendor or customer area.  You understood ?
    I mean to say, when you post a vendor invoice, the vendor is credited and you debit an expense account.  However, the vendor balance gets updated in the GL account through the reconciliation account only.
    Dr.  purchase expenses    100
    Cr.  Vendor ABC               100
    So this 100 for Vendor Credit is automatically reconciled in the GL area through this reconciliation account.  It is for that purpose only and you cannot use it for any manual posting.
    If I am clear to you, go ahead and create vendor/customer masters and select the reconciliation account in each master and post transactions.
    Regards,

  • Purpose of Reconciliation account for customer

    What is the purpose of Reconciliation account assigned in customer master. Wehn it gets posted and how it is used ? Do all customer share the same Reconciliation account ?

    Reconciliation - as the name suggests is used for Reconciliation of customer balances.At any point of time i can login into T.code FS10n and give the reconciliation account number and check the balances due from customers.
    EX: In your Company code you have 2 customers. All the customer master records are populated with reconciliation account YYYYY in the Company code data.
    When ever the system records a sale transaction, the following FI entry is passed:
    Customer Account Dr
    to Sales A/c Cr
    The accounts updated here are Customer account, sales account as well as the Reconciliation Account.(because we have entered this in master record of the customer,it also gets updated in real time)
    If i have done Rs.1000 with customer X(with recon account YYYYY entered in the master record)Rs.2000 and with customer Z(with recon account YYYYY entered in master record), the total balance of recon account would be Rs.3000.
    <b>
    Do all customer share the same Reconciliation account ?</b>
    Depends on the clients requirement. if he wants separate recon account for a bunch of customers say government agencies, then the Fi consultants can create additional recon account.

  • 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.

  • Alternative Reconciliation Account for Customers

    Dear all,
    I have to define Alternative Reconciliation Account for Customers but I don't understood relationship between Reconciliation Account for Customers and Special GL account.
    Please give a detail example about business scenanio that use these account.
    Thanks so much
    Minhtb

    Hi,
    Normally a ledger of any party will have two balances
    - Normal balances-
    - Balances with Special GL Postings
    Items like Down Payment request, Down Payments, Security Deposits etc.,  are treated as special GL Postings for ease of understandability.
    However a link has to be maintained between recon accounts (for the party) and the SP GL Indicator.
    Hence we assign an alternative recon account also for the main recon account for sp GL postings
    Cheers
    Points Please!

  • 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.

  • Change Recon account settings to allow initial GL bal upload

    Hi All,
    I am trying to upload initial GL balances but hitting issues with AP accounts. These accounts are Recon accounts hence do not allow me to post (which is correct) initial balance thru FB01. I had same issue with recon accounts for Assets but was able to make a temporary change in the settings in FS00, but this change doesnt work for AP recon accounts. Please help me asap.

    Sameer,
    What are you looking to actually accomplish?  In most implementations, the initial load of the AP Reconciliation account is only accomplished by creating the open items that make the open balance through AP Documents (Invoices) at the vendor level.  Therefore, no direct GL entries are necessary.
    Depending on how you are loading the GL balances for those accounts that offset the liability, e.g. expenses, you would have to back out those amounts out of the GL balance so that you would be in total balance.  Otherise, the best approach is to use a "Balance Load Clearing Account" which acts as the offset to the liability.  This account is then typically used as the balancing entry to the GL Balances load and should zero out if all goes well.
    With more clarity, I might be able to give more assistance.
    Regards...

  • Change recon account

    Hi,
    if I change the recon account for customers, the open item that was posted before change will not transfer to new account automatically. Is that right? If so, is it only new items created will be posted to new account? How can I settle the open item created previously?
    My requirement is old items stayed in old account. New items to new account. Thx

    HI
    All the item will remain in the Customer account . There is no impact on the customer account. However values for the reco accounts gets changed.
    For example if you have following open item
    100
    200
    300
    your reco account number "old" will show as 700.
    Now you changed the reco account to "new" . and you receive the payment of 100,200 & 300
    so customer account will be like-
    100
    200
    300
    100-
    200-
    300-
    This can be cleared easily. But reco account will show the figures like
    old reco account = 700
    new reco account =700-
    Please let me know if  this helps
