Hi,
call up SPRO and then go to:
Financial Accounting
--> General Ledger Accounting
--> Business Transactions
--> Open Item Clearing
--> Clearing Differences
---> Define Tolerance Groups for G/L Accounts
You could have executed a text search, the system would have proposed the relevant link in the IMG.
Hope this helps,

Tolerance Group for G/L Accounts

Hello,
In the spro Financial Accounting>General Ledger Accounting>Business Transactions>Open Item Clearing>Clearing Differences-->Define Tolerance Groups for G/L Accounts, according to SAP documentation it is possible: "For G/L account clearing, tolerance groups define the limits within which differences are accepted and automatically posted to predefined
accounts. The groups defined here can be assigned in the general ledger account master record".
I put these setting:
Company Code: XXXX
Tolerance group: XXX
Name: XXXXX
Debit Posting: 0,01 Percentage: 1,0
Credit Posting: 0,01 Percentage: 1,0
Also I populate in the account master data the field Tolerance group with XXX.
Then I used the transaction for automatic clearing F.13 and when I run this transaction I have two document with amount 100,01 and -100 and there is a difference of 0,01.
I'd like to avoid to have this difference and apply a rounding. How it is possible? The spro transaction seems to be used to accept this rounding and not to delete it during the clearing.
Thanks a lot,
Emanuela

Hi,
SAP is not "deleting" the difference during clearing (as you wrote in your last sentence).
Using the function you've mentioned you can define tolerance limits for minor differences to trigger an automatic posting to predefined GL accounts during clearing.
The difference is real, it can't disappear / rounded off.
Best regards, Christian

Tolerance Groups for G/L Accounts - How to configure

Hi all,
I've got a few basic questions on this topic, hope you can help!
1.
I have created an entry in the transaction "Define tolerance groups for G/L accounts". For this entry I have filled in the company code and tolerance values, but I haven't filled in the tolerance group. Will this tolerance then be applied to all G/L accounts?
2.
What happens if I do allow differences for G/L clearing (through tolerance group) but don't create any accounts for clearing differences?
Kind regards,
SV

1.I have created an entry in the transaction "Define tolerance groups for G/L accounts". For this entry I have filled in the company code and tolerance values, but I haven't filled in the tolerance group. Will this tolerance then be applied to all G/L accounts?
If for a specific company code if you keep this as empty - that group apply to all
in case if you define a group and if you give that in the GL Master then talerance limits applicable to that gl.
2.
What happens if I do allow differences for G/L clearing (through tolerance group) but don't create any accounts for clearing differences?
If any difference you are trying to post for clearing particular gl system not finds any gl and gives you the error to do assigne the gl in that

Define new tolerance group for G/L accounts

Hi,
Where do define new tolerance group for G/L accounts?
Thank in advance.
Swetha

Hi Swatha,
Debit Account
Maximum Revenue Difference on Clearing
     Clearing differences in your favour are permitted up to the amount specified here. The amount always refers to the local currency. Differences up to amount specified are automatically posted by the system as increasing profits. To do this, the system creates new line items.
     In addition to the amount, enter a percentage rate in the Percentage field. The lower of the two limits applies. If you only want to use absolute amounts or percentage rates, you have to enter maximum value in other fields. Ensure that you define these limits for your G/L accounts and your employees. The lower of the two limits applies.
Credit Account
Maximum Expense Difference on Clearing
     Differences to your disadvantage are permitted up to the amount specified here. The amount always refers to the local currency. Differences up to amount are automatically posted by the system as reducing profits.
     In addition to the amount, enter a percentage rate in the field
     Percentage. The lower limit applies. If you only want to use absol amounts or percentage specifications, you have to enter maximum value in other fields. Ensure that you define these limits for your G/L account and your employees. The lower value applies.
May be this information is useful to you

OBA4 FI tolerance groups for users - GL account

Dear All,
May I know where is the gl account defined for the permitted payment differences? If in FBKP, then which group to define?
Thanks

Hi
Please use the below mentioned path to define tolerance groups for users and also refer to follow the below link
For normal price difference clearing use the Tcode:OBXL
http://www.scribd.com/doc/51496069/17/Assign-User-Tolerance-Groups
for details please go through the below mentioned points
SPRO>Financial Accounting>General Ledger Accounting>Business Transactions>Open Item Clearing>Clearing Differences>Define Tolerance Groups for G/L Accounts/Define Tolerance Groups for Employees
Upper limit for posting procedure
Maximum Amount Posted per Document
Maximum permitted posting amount per document for this user group.
The posting amount is the total of all debit items or, similarly, the total of all credit items.
Maximum Posting Amount per Line Item
Maximum posting amount permitted per customer or vendor item for this user group.
Maximum Cash Discount Percentage Rate
Maximum cash discount percentage rate which may be assigned by an employee of the user group.
Use
The percentage rate is checked during the entry, change and clearing of open items.
Note
The restriction does not apply to automatically created line items, for example, during payment settlements.
Permitted payment difference
Maximum Payment Difference for Revenue
Payment differences to our advantage are allowed up to the amount entered here.
The amount always refers to the local currency. Payment differences up to the amount entered here are posted automatically by the system as increasing the profit. The system creates line items to show this.
Note
In addition to the amount, you also enter a percentage rate in the Percent field. The lower limit is valid. If you only want to use absolute amounts or percentage specifications, then you must enter the maximum value in every other field.
Note that you define these limits for your customers/vendors and your employees. The lower limit is valid.
Example
The local currency is USD. You have entered 30 USD in the Revenue field and 1 in the Percent field. For incoming payments up to 3000 USD, you accept an overpayment of a maximum of 1 percent. That means, amounts of 0 to a maximum of 30 USD are tolerated, depending on the incoming payment amount. For incoming payments over 3000 USD, you accept an overpayment of up to a maximum of 30 USD.
Maximum Allowable Revenues from Payment Differences
Differences when settling payments are accepted and posted automatically by the system up to the percentage rate entered here. The percentage rate is only valid if the difference is posted as a gain.
The percentage rate is used for the maximum of the debit and credit totals of the items to be cleared.
Note
In addition to the percentage rate, you also enter an amount in the Revenue field. The lower limit is valid. If you only want to use absolute amounts or percentage specifications, you must enter the maximum value in every other field.
Note: You define these limits for your customer/vendor and your employees. The lower limit is valid.
Example
The local currency is USD. You have entered 30 USD in the Revenue field and 1 in the Percent field. For incoming payments of up to 3000 USD, you accept an overpayment of a maximum of 1 percent. That means, amounts of 0 to a maximum of 30 USD are tolerated, depending on the incoming payment amount. For incoming payments over 3000 USD, you accept an overpayment of up to a maximum of 30 USD.
Maximum Discount Adjust. for Gain from Payment Differences
When clearing payments, any payment differences up to the amount specified here are corrected 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.

Open Item Clearing Differences - Tolerence Groups for specific GL Acctts

Dear Forum,
We have a situation where we need to set up different Tolerance Groups for Clearing Differences for different GL Accounts, such as for GL Account for GRIR Clearing Account, we do not want any clearing differences and therefore the tolerance limit should be zero. But for Clearing of other GL Account we intend to set up the tolerance limit, say, upto maximum of USD 1000. The issue is that we can define the Tolerance Groups for Employees under OBA4. However we are not able to restrict this Tolerance Group, with a maximum limit of USD 1000 for Clearing Differences, to a particular GL Account. How can we do this? There is a risk that this Tolerance Group Employee may perform the Clearing of the GL Account for which we want to have zero tolerance.
The suggestions and ideas from experts will be highly appreciated as we intend to resolve this issue.
Regards

Hi,
You can define tolerance group for GL account in transaction code OBA0.
T-code (oba0)
(This is to be done before Clearing the GL open Transactions)
Define Tolerance Group for GL Account
Financial Accounting
GL Accounting
Business Transactions
   Open Item Clearing
    Clearing Differences
     Define tolerance for GL Accounts
GL tolerance group should be assigned in GL master data using transaction code FS00.
GL account master data > Company code segment > Control Data > Tolerance group.
If you donu2019t find this field in GL master data then you have review field status of GL account group in IMG.
Thanks!

Employee tolerance group&G/L acct tolerance group&Customer/Vendor toler.grp

Hi All,
Can anyone explain me in detail about employee tolerance group, G/L acct tolerance group and Customer/Vendor tolerance group?
what is the difference among them and do they have any linkages, like consistency, conflict etc.
Any responses will be awarded,
Regards,
Samson

Hi,
In accounting there are three types of tolerances: Employee tolerance groups, G/L
account tolerance groups, and customer/vendor tolerance groups.
The employee tolerance group is used to control:
1. Upper limits for posting transactions
2. Permitted payment differences
The G/L account tolerance group is used to control:
1. Permitted payment differences (for example, for automatic clearing procedures).
The customer/vendor tolerance groups provide specifications for:
1. Clearing transactions
2. Permitted payment differences
3. Posting residual items from payment differences
4. Tolerances for payment advice notes
The configuration for Tolerance group is:
Tolerance groups for employees, for example:
1. Accountant I
2. Accountant II
3. Accounting manager
Tolerance groups for customers/vendors, for example:
1. Good customers/vendors
2. Not so good customers/vendors
3. Cash only customers/vendors
Tolerance groups for G/L accounts, for example:
1. Clearing accounts (external procurement)
2. Clearing accounts (in-house production)

Configuration for tolerence group for vendor invoice.

Hi experts,
For internal controlling purposes, tolerence group for vendor invoice posting required, high value of the invoices can be done by authorised persons only. How to configure .
J.Francis

First all go SPRO>IMG>Financial Accounting (New) >Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) >Document >Tolerance Groups >Define Tolerance Groups for Employees
Here you have to create a 2 types of tolerances - 1 for normal user and another for Higher authority
I.e. 1 one - Amount per document - 10000 so that can that group not able to pay more then that amount
2 one - Amount per document - 50000
now assign those Tolerances with user
SPRO>IMG>Financial Accounting (New) >Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) >Document >Tolerance Groups >Assign User/Tolerance Groups
Best of luck
