Down-payment clearing of AuC

[former_member195427]

Dear Experts,

We have an AuC against a WBS. A down-payment was made in year 2014 against this AuC and now while running CJ88 we are getting an error saying "(as shown in attached screen shots)

I searched on SCN and found a SAP note 35309 and followed up with FI consultant and got to know that "vendor has all down payment cleared" and the problem occurred when user ran CJ8G.

So, I tried to TECO the WBS as a workaround to nullify the balances on AuC but it dint work. Also, we cant use F-48 series transaction to clear down-payment because Vendor balance is '0' and the vendor does not have open items. Kindly suggest a workaround to address this issue.

Hi Saurabh,

If you need very urgent help, open High priority message to SAP, they will definitely work to help you per SLA.

If i were you, i would sit with business representative, and find out which entry is wrong, because things don't seem correct, as GR is 170K, IR is 156K, asset balance is 166K and negative 46K.

None of this does not tie up, you have work on finding the root cause, and post adjustment entries accordingly.

Check with your FI consultant, if resetting the Clearing, and than posting correct entries, could be helpful. I focus on saying your FI consultant, because i am not looking into your system, as there are lot things to be evaluated before a precise solution can be given.

Hope it was helpful, it is general practice, to mark any information that was helpful in your case, so that SCN community can utilize that information for future reference.

Good Luck.

Thanks Pankaj,

Actually I know the downpayment document number raised against AuC as shown here:

And when user is trying to clear down payment in AB01 t-code , it says ' not possible to post DP clearing. There are no down payments.

Also, when I got to "overview of asset accounting documents" I see 46000- was posted with transaction type 181:clearing of DP from current fiscal year.
In AW01N, if I click on this document, I could see Accounting document with source t-code CJ8G.

is it a bug or a standard error. How can I clear this balance fro AUC.

Thanks.

Hi Saurab,

Now it makes little more sense, that DP never got posted to Asset, that means you need to post a correct DP or equivalent entry from FI, and that clears this entry with other, to nullify the impact on asset(from DP).

You can post a new journal that posts to this asset, and than clear it to nullify the impact, or if possible reverse this DP document from FI, rather than doing anything in AA directly.

Hope it was helpful.

http://scn.sap.com/thread/3819435Yes Pankaj. Now, it seems we are on track.

I am totally agre with your first statement.

For second, can you please tell me t-code which I can use to clear this entry (like FI journal entry to nullify impact: is it FB01 you are talking about?)

Reversing the document doest not work, for that I raised another thread (attached at the top)

Thanks.

Hi Saurabh,

It does not look like very straight forward situation, can you help me understand how was down payment cleared?

Also was that vendor paid / Expected asset received / not.

Hi Pankaj,

The vendor was paid already, hence no pending balance against vendor.

The down-payment I can see in PO as shown below:

Please let me know if any other information you need.

Thanks.
