Clearing Document

[Former Member]

While clearing an open item GL account(F-03), an accounting document

was created automatically by the system which is same as clearing document. How this happened?

thanks for your feedback.

Regards,

Robert

hi,

1) you can post a payment and clear an invoice with it,

so payment is the clearing document

or

2) you can clear 2 existing documents, in this case sytems creates a clearing document. If ther's no difference in value, clearing document has only a header (in BKPF) and no items

Robert,

Look at this eg.

Say Document Number (open item) - XYZ.

You clear this document and clearing document ABC is generated.

When u drill down to item level,

for XYZ in clearing doc Field you will find ABC and

for ABC in clearing doc field you will find ABC.

This is the standard functionality, cleaing doc field of clearing doc will always be clearing doc itself.

So 101083117 is clearing doc for all other items in the list and 101083117 will appear as clearing doc in 101083117.

Hope this helps.

If you clear an open item, it obviously creates clearing document which will be Accounting document always.

Please eloborate your query.
