Reversing accrual/deferral document after stated reversal date

Hi All,
I had an accrual/deferral document posted in Feb, 2006 which was stated for reversal on 15th march, 2006. This reversal was to be done automatically by the system but due to some problem at that time, it didnt get reversed. We couldnt reverse it once the reversal date went by so we posted a GL document (FB50) with opposite line items to negate the effect.
Now its March, 2007 and we want to knock these two line items from open-item mgmt accounts as it still shows these items as open. If we can reverse the originally posted accrual/deferral document it can be done. But since the posting period for march, 2006 is now close we cant find a way to reverse it.
Any suggestions on how we can clear these open items?

Use t code FB02. Enter required parameters and press enter. From the menu slect Extras - Document header. This will take you to next screen. In this screen from the menu select GoTo Document Header. Change the reversal date and save.
Hope this helps. If useful, please reward points.

Accrual/deferral document (FBS1)

Hi All,
I had an accrual/deferral document(FBS1) posted in December, 2006 which was stated for reversal on 15th January, 2007. This reversal was to be done automatically by the system but due to some problem at that time, it didn't get reversed.
I am using FB02 to remove the Reversal date. I got the message SUM OF ACCOUNTS DOES NOT EQUAL ZERO. I have changed some document with the same procedure. But only one gives me this message.
I don't understand that I am not changing any amounts, then why its giving me above message.
Any suggestions on how we can clear these open items? I will assign points

As you have noticed by system design that indeed the options for Park or Hold are not available
(greyed out) for accrual documents (FBS1).
The apparent reason is because an accural document requires a reversal
date and a held document cannot handle a reversal posting.
You may want to consider using the "post with reference" feature to
simplify the tasks of reentering accrual/deferral documents which occur
every month.
In adition, please read note 492006:
'Special transactions such as FBB1, FBS1, FB41 cannot and must not be
parked since subsequent processing using FBV0 is not possible.'
Hope that helps.

Accrual / Deferral Document - Park?

Hi experts,
I would like to use FBS1 to post accrual/ deferral document with the Park Document function.
Howvever, in this t-code FBS1, document parking is not allowed (the button is grey out).
Is there any way we can park the document over there? any configuration to set?
will assign points.
Thanks.

Hi Sreenivas,
Ya, I think the FBS1 couldn't park the document.
Is there other alternative that we can have our accrual document park and post and auto reverse in the subsequent month?
Please suggest. Thanks a lot.

Linking to a different document after a certain date

I hope there is a way to do this.
I have a PDF that I have added to a web page. It is a registration form to be filled out and sent in. The prices on the form reflects both early bird (until April 29) and regular prices.
I have created a second registration form (not yet loaded) which only reflects the regular prices for use after the early bird date has passed. After the early bird time has lapsed, I was going to load the new PDF and change the link so that the second registration form is linked.
I don't want to have them both available at the same time - less chance of someone coming back later and saying I didn't see the form with the early bird pricing.
Is there a way I could set them both up on my site so that the first form is linked to until the end of April 29, and on April 30 the link will automatically bring people to the second form?
THANKS

The effort to do this by creating a dynamic page is just not worth it.
Anyone saying it's too much effort is either lazy or they simply don't know how to build dynamic pages in a simple manner. Furthermore, it's not just about you and your issue; it's about anyone that maybe looking for a solution to the question you have asked: how to display a link based on if a date has passed or not. Not an alternative suggestion, a solution.
It's very easy to create a dynamic link based off date. Of course bregent mentioned that it's not difficult, but there wasn't any mention of how easy it was (nor examples for that matter). Just lots of talk about whether it was worth it or not and an alternate, cumbersome suggestion. Bummer. Here's an example of the dynamic method with included explanation. You can decide whether it's worth the effort or not. I estimate it's less than 5 mins. of work, even for a beginner. Plus you might learn a thing or two about dynamic scripting in the process, which is exciting.
Change the filename of register.html to register.php then use the following code to display link depending on date.
<?php if (date("Y-m-d") < "2011-03-15") { ?>
today is before March 15, 2011 put link to early bird pdf here.
<?php } else { ?>
today is on or after March 15, 2011 put link to regular rate pdf here.
<?php } ?>
You can use 301 redirect with .htaccess on apache server to redirect register.html to register.php if there's many links already established for register.html
You'd need two different pdf files to accomplish your task: ealry_bird.pdf to use before your set date and regular_rate.pdf to use for after your set date.
Then setup a function to remove the early_bird.pdf file from the server after a certain date. It's as easy as defining the variable and applying the function to the area that is congruent with the argument presented. In this case the argument is whether the date has passed or not. If it has then define the variable as the filename then apply the function that deletes the variable (filename) from the server as shown in the example below:
<?php if (date("Y-m-d") < "2011-03-15") { ?>
today is before March 15, 2011 <a href="/images/early_bird.pdf">link to early bird pdf here</a>.
<?php } else {
// declare variable for the early bird pdf file
$pdffile = "/images/early_bird.pdf";
// remove the early bird pdf file from the server
// by using unlink function on the set variable
unlink($pdffile); ?>
today is on or after March 15, 2011 <a href="/images/regular_rate.pdf">link to regular rate pdf here</a>.
<?php } ?>

Hi Satish,
I have not made any configurations for accrual posting. Just made an entry in FBS1 with reason 5 and a reversal date. On that date, the reversal was carried out too.
Just check the following -
- the document has not already been reversed.
- the document type used has a reverse document type assigned (OBA7)
hope this helps

Parked doc that has 'Reversal Reason' & 'Reversal Date' available

Hi guys,
Transaction FBS1, Enter Accrual/Deferral Document, has the following additional fields when compared to a standard posting transaction such as FB01 which allows for the auto reversing of the accrual:
1. Reversal Reason
2. Reversal Date
Is there a method of parking a document that has been entered via FBS1?
Or is there a different transation that will park a document but will also allow the 'Reversal Reason' & 'Reversal Date' to be populated?
Cheers

As you have noticed by system design that indeed the options for Park or Hold are not available
(greyed out) for accrual documents (FBS1).
The apparent reason is because an accural document requires a reversal
date and a held document cannot handle a reversal posting.

Accrual/Deferral entries

Dear friends,
What is the purpose of Accruals/Deferrals enteries. Pls explain me with one example. Where do we use this entries? can we reverse this entries in month end or year end? Pls clarify my doubts.
Regards
Murali

Hi,
Accrual/Deferral entries are used for monthly provisions. It is part of month-end closing activity where we need to keep provision for certain expenses which are supposed to be accounted in a particular month and not accounted for.
We can also use sample documents for creating month-end provisions. However, there are few problems if we keep provision using sample documents, which are explained herebelow:
1) The person who keeps provision is not the same who is going to make payment. Here the person who is making payment on receipt of Bill/expense statement, may not know that a provision has already created in books of account in previous month. Thereby duplication of expenses will occur.
2) The amount may not exactly match. Here the amount what we are keeping provision may not exactly match with Bill/expense statement. Thereby there will be credit/debit lying in provision for expenses account/s.
To overcome the above problems, Accrual/Deferral document concept has come. In Accrual/Deferral, we create the provision for certain accounts for one particular month (entry with month-end date), which will be reversed on next month first date. That means, when we receive the actual bills/expense statement, we need to directly debit the expenses instead of provision account. Since provision is created in the previous month end date and reversed back on the first day of next month.
Most Important: Please note that Accrual/Deferral documents are not used in year-end closing activities. It will be used only during month-end activities.
I hope it is clarified to you about the concept behind Accrual/Deferral. In case you still have any questions, please come back.

Srinivas

Accual/Deferral Document Error

Hi All,
I'm getting the following error message when I'm tryng to post a document in FBS1 (Enter Accrual/Deferral Document)
<b>Reason 01 does not permit a later reversal. Correction required.
Message no. F5764</b>
I get this error message for all the reason codes except for 05 - Accrual /DeferralPosting.
Please help me with this.
Thank you ,
Sri

Srilakshmi,
FBS1 is used to enter Accrual/Deferral document, which will be eventually reversed. All accruals done at period/month end will be(mandatory) reversed after the period close.
So 05 is ok to be used to posting it.
The T Code to reverse these is f.81
Hope that helps..
Thanks,
Nandita

Update in disconnection document after reversal of demounted device by EG53

Hi everybody,
I have an issue reagardig diconnection document update. For instance if i make a device removal EG32 in a disconnected installation, the status of the disconnection document it is update with status 24 or 27.
So far so good, but if i make the reversal of the demounted device with EG53, the status of the disconection document remains 24 or 27 (no update to 21).
This is no good for the next steps in reconnection, because the device shows like iti is demounted, but in fact it is installed.
Please, a solution,
Thank you,

Hi Olivia,
Thank you for your reply, but this is not a solution, because the users uses EG53 for a year, and by the way EG50 doesn`t work - The status of the device doesn`t allow it.
The scenario it is like this:
1. He use EG32 to demount a meter - this will change the status of the disc, document to 27.
2. He use EG53 to reverse the demounted meter - this it is not related to the disc doc to change it to 21.
This is my problem because the disc document after EG53 remains in status 27.
And if we look at the device this is installed.
Thank you,

Cannot reverse document with future posting date

Hi,
When I tried to reverse a document with future posting date, system gives error F5362 Posting date must not be smaller than XX.XX.XXXX (x = future posting date).
Is it possible to do this in SAP?

Hello,
You need to use reversal reason configured accordingly.
Configure the reversal reason for your purpose:
IMG => Financial Accounting => Business Transactions => Adjustment Posting / Reversal / Define Reasons for Reversal
Make SURE that you have ticked Alt.Pos.dt (Alternative Posting Date) check box.
Save it.
Now use this reversal reason for your posting and give a fugure date.
Make sure that the future posting period is opened but NOT closed.
Please also read F1 on alternative posting date check box:
Indicator: Alternative posting date allowed
Indicator as to whether you are allowed to specify an alternative posting date for the relevant reversal reason.
Use
When you use the reversal reason, the system checks that reversal is not carried out using an alternative posting date and therefore possibly in a later posting period or in a later fiscal year.
Examples
If you want to use negative postings during reversal but only if the reversal is posted in the same period, you can define two reversal reasons:
1st reason: No alternative date allowed, generate negative posting
2nd reason: Alternative date allowed, do not generate negative posting

Ravi

FB01 accrual trasaction posted without reversal date & reason

Hi,
SAP Payroll accrual transactions uploaded through Ezysolutions has posted without reversal date & reason is there any way to change/add to these transactions.
Thank you,
Sekhar

Hi,
You can read the upload program to see what t.code is used. But, I believe it should interface FBS1, though it's showing FB01 in history header.
Anyways, pick up the doc # from FB03 and enter it in F.81,and run in a test mode before final reversal. And, then ask users to re-upload the data with correct Reversal reason and date.
These fields,being critical fields, are non-modifiable as per standard. And, I wouldn't recommend to make them changeable. Let's treat the cause and not effect!
Upload program must be modified to make these fields mandatory to avoid this kind of errors in future.
Thanks,
Nirav

Function Module/Document to change Reversal date for FI document.

Can anyone please provide me with the Function Module/Document to change Reversal date for FI document.

Hi Vikram,
Normally, you post a reversing document in the same period you posted the original document. The period of the original document must be open to post a reversing document. If the period is not open, you can overwrite the posting date field with a date in an open period, such as the current period.
Regards,
Manoj.
