Hi Muhammad,

Please check  if you have maintained payment method "C" for the House bank and Currency "PKR" (FBZP) or in T042I table.

Kindly check and let me know.

Hello Prakash,

I have viewed this link before, It is worth reading it, and as far as I remember that I had changed field field status of Bank's GL for Profit center i-e I had kept it as optional, yet i will look into it, thanks for sharing your comments.

Take care

Hello Prakash,

I have changed field status in OB41, after this, error of balancing not filled in line item is gone, however another error has arrived, shown below:

Internal Error: doc balance not zero/comp code XXXX vendor XXXXX customer

Diagnosis

An internal check routine discovered an error when creating the payment document. It is an error in payment program or errors in the programs with which the documents to be paid were created

Hello Prakash,

I saw the log again, it also said: No bank account entered in table T042I for pmnt method C curr,PKR, i run se16 and saw table T042I, in which i saw the House Bank ID, but no account, can you plz tell me where can i add bank account in this table?????

thanks

Hi Muhammad,

For Internal Error : This is because your debit and credit balance is not equal.

Please check the Invoice amount and currency and House bank currency. Please maintain exchange rate difference account in OB09 for exchange rate difference.

2. For House Bank Config. Issue, Please refer : http://scn.sap.com/thread/2106464

Hope this helps !!

In case of any queries please revert.

Muhammad,

Looks like your House Bank configuration in incomplete. Go to tcode FI12 and check your House Bank settings. If everything looks correct, then make sure you have entered a Bank Account and the respective Bank GL Reconciliation Account in the Bank Accounts Folder.

Let us know if this fixed the issue.

Hello MG,

I have checked bank configuration, it is all set and seems perfect......Thanks for your valuable comments.

I have created paymnt terms and cash discount config setting in FBKP......i mean i had not created paymnt terms and cash discounts when i was running Automatic Payment Program. Now its running fine without errors, i dont know what may have gone wrong with configuration.

Thanks, in case i get stuck in next steps then I will let you experts know..:)

Take care

Muhammad,

You Document Splitting are defined as zero balance Profit Center -> Define Document Splitting Characteristics for General Ledger

You have to verify if your vendor must have a single PC or derive from P&L accounting. Then you have to choose if you unflag this customizing or assign cost center in vendor line item.

Regards

[muhammad_yousufali]

Hello Marssel,

Thanks for your valuable comments, I have already done this step of configuration in doc splitting, Define Doc splitting characteristics for GL, PC is mandatory and zero balance too.

Hmmmmmmm.....PC is derived from CC, so i entered Cost center while booking vendor inv, still its complicated....

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards

[Marssel700]

Muhammad,

are you allowed to enter fixed PC by set up -> Edit Constants for Nonassigned Processes?

You can check also below SAP note

Hello,

However I will read SAP Note.
