Regarding clearing strategy in FI-CA

Hello...
This is pertaining to clearing strategy in FI-CA, when customer pays an extra amount against invoice it should go as payment on account but it is getting adjusted against next debit line item (i.e installments due for future dates).
Our requirement is, it should not adjust against next debit line item due but show as payment on account.
Request you all to share your views for the same.
Regards,
Mitesh Sureliya.

Hi Mitesh,
The clearing depends on your Clearing Variant. Please check the customizing clearing Variant in SPRO-Financial accounting-Contract A/C -ARAP-Basic Functions-Open Item Mgmt-Clearing Control-Clearing Variants-Define Clrng Variant.
First you need to check the variant assigned to Clearing type-05 under above path but clicking-Define specification for Clearing Types-Define defaults for Incoming payment.
Once you find the clearing variant, go to the above said Clearing control menu path and check the clearring steps like Grouping/Sorting/Grouping Rule/End of Clearing steps and make necessary changes to suit your requirement.
Hope this helps. Thank you.
Best Regards,
B.Kartthik.

Regarding Release strategy - Approver on vacation

Hi ..
This is regarding Release Strategy ..
We don't have work flow configured now. can you please suggest for below
1. If a Person responsible for a role [release code] is on vacation, how we pass this authorization to alternative person
2. i believe without work flow there will be no way that we can notify approver
Thanks

You can assign the Role/Profile containing the authorisation on a time limited basis to the person who covers for the person on holiday.
It's not particularly efficient to have to continue doing this though so I'd suggest doing it on a permanent basis.

Regarding cutover strategy!!!!

what are the steps involved in the cut over stratey? please explain

2.What is cut over strategy?
Cutover strategy depends upon how the organizations design their data load strategies. Normally, you decide the sequence of Data loads for Configuration settings, Master data, Transaction data which follows whom and then you make a copy of the system as a Production system a day before and after checking the successful data loads, you go-live 100% or partial again depending upon organizational setup and policies.
Cutover planning is highly site specific. There's no thumb rule. The stock data as on the date of going live should be correctly entered. But stock being a highly dynamic quantity, the strategy for loading should be crystal clear. Then you have to load all the back dated transaction on the stock. Some stock comes into your plant/storage location as return and some stock is actually delivered to your customer through sales orders of various kinds.

Some stock comes into your plant/storage location as return and some stock is actually delivered to your customer through sales orders of various kinds.
The final phase before going live with SAP is often referred to as the cutover phase, which is the process of transitioning from one system to a new one. The organization needs to plan, prepare and execute the cutover, by creating a cutover plan that describes all cutover tasks that have to be performed before the actual go-live. Examples of cutover tasks are:
Review and update all systems-related operations procedures like backup policies and system monitoring
Assign ownership of SAPs functional processes to individuals
Let SAP AG do a Going Live check, to get their blessing to go live with the system
Lock down the system, i.e. do not make any more changes to the SAP system
Cut-Over Activities:
Cutover Plan - The details of how to move to the production environment and go live. Ensuring that all master data to be loaded to production server is ready & in correct format. User training is conducted & user is in a comfort or atleast managable position to work on production server. Preparation of user manual. All go-live preparatory activities.
Open Client activity:
The activity or configuration to be done in production server, by opening an client should be ensured that it is done before go-live.
Cutover Activities
At the end of Phase 4, it is necessary to refine and validate the cutover plans generated in the Realization phase. Among other things, this includes tasks such as the reviewing of the runtime of test runs to estimate runtime for the complete data size. A conversion checklist for transporting all changes into the productive system is provided for all the configuration settings to be imported.
At this stage, it is important to verify that required tasks have been successfully completed, for example, that the technical environment is in place, the cutover programs are ready and the application data is verified. Approval is now sought from project management and company senior management to start the cutover process.
Here you can also refer to the Data Transfer Made Easy Guidebook created especially for this purpose. It is located in the Knowledge Corner of the ASAP CD.
The help desk is particularly important in the first weeks after going live, but you will require help desk support throughout the productive life of your R/3 System.
An internal help desk should be staffed and supported mainly by employees of the enterprise. Setting up a help desk involves, among other things, installing office and technical equipment and defining OSS users. Problems which cannot be solved by this internal help desk are forwarded to SAP via the OSS system.
As soon as you know when you will go live with the R/3 System or with new R/3 applications you should inform SAP. Thus you can ensure that SAP can provide optimal support throughout your going-live phase. For the last weeks before and first weeks after the go-live date, SAP offers the R/3 GoingLive Customer Care Service, accessible via SAPNet and OSS.

Regarding 56 strategy

Hi Everybody,
In my company we are using strategy 56 ( Characteristics Planning). we are having an issue while doing ATP check in sales order...
Material type is FERT ( marked as Configurable in Basic Data 2 view) and assigned 56 strategy to it and we are maintaining stock for it.
When we create a sales order for this part and when we do ATP check, system is showing 0 quantity eventhough we are maintaining stock for it, i think this is becoz of strategy 56.
My question is there a way to do ATP check and find the stock? How to configure the strategy 56, in order to fullfill the above requirement?
Did anybody dealt with this kind of situation? It's very urgent guys.. your valuable help will be appreciated...
Thanks,
Kanth

Hi Sriram,
I maintained Checking Group in MRP3 view and stock type for the material is Unrestricted use stock.
The issue is: If i maintain the stock as Sales Order Stock, it's binded to that particular sales order.. and if i do the ATP check for another sales order how can i process it?
These where iam struggling with.. We want to maintain the stock at generic level and if we get any sales order, is it possible to assign the stock to Sales Order?
Plz let me know whether i can configure any new strategy type.. or do i have to create any program to execute when we enter sales order...
Thanks,
Kanth

Design Patterns: Do you have a good STRATEGY?

1. Context: Create a XML file. And since there
are many ways: DOM, WAY1, OTHERWAYS, ETC...
2. Question: As a Design Patterns application purpose,
can we use the Strategy Pattern? Is it appropriate one?
If not, what are the alternatives?
CLIENT
--CREATEXML (CONTEXT)
----CREATEXMLSTRATEGY (STRATEGY)
------CREATEXMLSTRATEGY_DOM (CONCRETE STRATEGY)
------CREATEXMLSTRATEGY_WAY1 (CONCRETE STRATEGY)
------CREATEXMLSTRATEGY_OTHERWAYS (CONCRETE STRATEGY)

Hi Paul,
I have myself recently started doing the Design Patterns and believe me after understanding the Patterns OOD have become more clear. >>1. Context: Create a XML file. And since there are many ways: DOM, >>WAY1, OTHERWAYS, ETC...
My understanding regarding the Strategy and Tempelate method Pattern has become stronger after reading the "Thinking in Patterns in Java" , the author is mentioning there these Behavioural Patterns are used for Framework development , infact there he has used example of Framework development.
Now regarding your question it seems to me that your entire applicaiotn can use the Creational Pattern , like Abstract Factory.You can use the DOM,WAY1,OTHERWAYS as the concrete Prodcuts and all will be extracted from the Factory XMLGeneratorFactory.
Strategy Pattern is changing the algorthims at the run time , the temlate can work for your applicaiton but then what you are trying to achieve.Currently this much I can say ..
Let us see for more opinions

Clearing Open Items

Dear Friends,
This is an issue regarding clearing of open item.
When a Business Partner pays an excess amount over the Open invoice items, it should normaly post it as a payment on Account.
Any excess payment paid by the Customer Consumption Charges are getting settled against the next instalment due, which in turn should not happen. Excess payment made by any Customer against Bill should reflect as Payment on Account, and should get reflected as Credit amount in his next bill getting generated.
But in our case, the excess amount is getting adjusted against the Installment plan amount for the next month. The Client needs the excess amount to be shown as payment on account rather than clearing the next month's installment plan.
The grouping/sorting settings has been done based on Due date.
Can anybody throw some light on the same?
Thanks and Regards,
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
I would suggest you to place clearing locks on the individual instalment plan line items until each of them is due based on the individual instalment plan line item due dates.
So, if in case, excess payment comes in, it will not clear the instalment plan line items which are not due and will sit as payment on account, if there is no other debt against the account.
Subsequently this will be reflected as excess payment on the customer's next invoice.
You can place clearing locks during the instalment plan creation using event 3040.
Hope it solves your query.....
Thanks,
Amlan

Scheduling Agreement Release Strategy Issue

Hi,
We have a typical problem in Scheduling Agreement Release Strategy.
Once the SA is released for the first time it should restart the release strategy again if there is a change in Quantity or Value or Purchasing group. The release strategy is getting restart for some of the release strategies and not for others. I compared the characteristics, class for both the release strategies and I am not seeing any difference.
Can anyone please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Ram

release strategy can be rerigger in case where qty or price change and the changes is over the percentage you defined for Release indicator
goto release indicator config and in SPRO for release strategy and check the Value change %
maintian 0.1 here
so any change above 0.1 will retrigger
and maintian value 4 in chgable field.

GL Clearing - JVA - Equity Group issue

Hi SAP team,
Would anybody know a solution regarding clearing GL accounts (many years of FI outstanding open items) which could reflect the correct Equity Group setting (50% - 50%)?
Problem is that it first started as partnership 50%- 50%, then it changed to 40%-60%, then recently to 30%-70%. (valid to date)
GL clearing with documents related to partnership 50%-50% are reflecting the recent 30%- 70% partnership instead.
How can we control the balance before and after clearing between in 50-50% partnership?
Regards
Roger

Thank you Venkata. This is of some use.
you are correct. Affects master data.
Master data in this case has already been changed into different EQ Groups. Now, we are facing a request to clear 55.000 open items.
some items refers to old E Groups, some from current EQ Groups. We are not sure how this clearing (that will only touch recent EQ Gr) will affect the old ones.
If you ever faced anything like that and knows a way of making the clearing more realistic (i.e. document related to EQ G1 to be cleared and reflect EQ G1....clearing of open items from EQ Gr 2 to reflect on EQ Gr2 and so on.)
Regards,
Roger

Clearing special GL payments

Hi Experts,
I have a confusion regarding clearing customer. When i clear customer down payments against invoice it generates two AB Documents along with RV and DZ. In clearing normal payments it generates one AB. Please clarify.

Hi,
Downpayment uses Special GL Indicator. It works changing reconciliation accounting from vendor in invoice creation. Since you have a different Account the system clear it before post normal account.
Example:
Downpayment
PK: 29; SGL "A"; USD 1,000.00
PK: 50; Bank clearing account; USD USD 1,000.00
Clearing 50%
PK: 39; SGL "A"; USD 500.00
PK: 26; Vendor number; USD 500.00
The PK 26 document will decrease the Invoice amount to be paid in original Vendor Reconciliation Accounting (not "A" indicator)
I hope this clears
regards

Release Strategy Get cancelled - Reg

Hai,
We are in SAP R/3 -ECC 6.O
Release stratgey has been set for the Purchase order and its works well for so many years.
The issue is , Some of the P.O alone , when the Header Terms & condition changed , Like adding one text line, or Some space or some dot, comma, The Release Strategy gets Re - Triggered ( Plz mind that , i have not changed any P.O Qty / Value/ Organisation entities/ Material Group/ Material/Tax code)
Kindly update , The reason - Why Release strategy gets re triggred for the , already Released P.O.
Regards,
PS

Release strategy gets retriggered only in case you have changed the amount or qty thereby increasing the amount of the PO
but as you say that you have not changed any thing which will impact the amount of the PO but the RS still gets re-triggered then we are left with only one option that some user exit has been active for this or some BADI please take help of abaper to find out the exit for this

Clearing date problem

hi all,
this question is regarding clearing date of vendor's check run.
They found out that one vendor from today's check run had a clearing date of 10/23/07 instead of 10/16/07. I checked and all the other payments from today's run had a 10/16/07 clearing date. My understanding is that becoz there was one invoice that was inadvetently posted with a 10/18 date, somehow it caused the payment run to pick up that date. Please advise.
thanks.

Check the clearing document. See all the items that are cleared in that document. Look at the posting date of all the documents. Identify the latest posting date of those document. The latest posting date shall be dated 10/23/07 and that is what is picked up as the clearing date.Those that have 10/16 may belong to a different clearing document.
