FEBAN - Posting Area 1 & 2

[sachin_thombre]

Hi All,

1. What is the basic purpose of FEBAN, and what is the relation of EBS posted via FF_5 with FEBAN

2. If I post EBS via FF_5 - What is the easy way to find the entry posted in FF_5 in the FEBAN

3. FEBAN - How does posting area 1 & posting area 2 gets updated?

Thanks in advance for your reply

1. What is the basic purpose of FEBAN, and what is the relation of EBS posted via FF_5 with FEBAN

FEBAN is for post Processing. Once you uploaded statement, Most of the items get cleared and reconciled automatically and still if some item remains open, you may post it through FEBAN.

2. If I post EBS via FF_5 - What is the easy way to find the entry posted in FF_5 in the FEBAN

In FEBAN, you will get all Items from the bank Statement. Both reconciled and reconciled Line items in red and Green Indicators.

3. FEBAN - How does posting area 1 & posting area 2 gets updated?

Posting Area 1 is for GL Transactions and Posting Area 2 is Sub-Ledgers, Customer, vendors. In your BRS , if any Transactions like Direct Deposit by the Customer to Bank Account, use this Transaction type + Posting Area 2 + Posting rule 8.

So , it will post Entry into the Customer Account and Clear the Open Invoice of Customer Sub ledger.

Hi Shinas,

I have query on 3rd point - In my case EBS is posting it will post acc entry as ( Dr. Main House Bank and Cr Cash Clearing Account). Thinking on this terms -

1. What is the configuration that we need to perform so that this posting area are updated

2. Pst Area 2 - How system identifies the corresponding customer line item

3. What is the use of - PmtAcc in both Pst Areas.

Can you please revert

Hi,

If i am not mistaken;

1. Create Account Symbol + Assign bank GL to Account Symbol

Then Define Posting rule with these combination. There Posting Area = 1 , Posting Key 40, Account Symbol = Manin House bank and in the Credit Side Account Symbol = Cash Clearing.

2. In my Scenario, i have defined a Business Transaction for Direct Deposit and in bank reference sometimes update customer line item assignment Value. Sometime process with bank Statement reference which will not match with the line item in our books , so in FEBAN Match Manually.

3. I am sorry, i couldn't get this point. Payment Account in Posting Area ???

Hi Sachin,

shinas.rh is said correct.

Let me try to explain about point 3.

Example: If customer made a payment amount of 200.00/- into our bank account.

Lets do entry for the above transaction manually:

Bank A/c Dr 200

To Customer Account -200

The same entry while posting in SAP system, it will post two entries for reconciliation purpose. 1. Mail Bank GL Entry (Posting Area 1), and 2. Customer credit entry(Posting Area 2).

1. Main Bank GL account Dr 200

To Incoming Bank GL A/c -200

2. Incoming Bank GL A/c Dr 200

To Customer account -200

I think it will help you to understand.
