Clear Open Items

[Former Member]

Experts,

I need to clear some open items in a Co Cd as we are planning to start fresh by closing all open items. These items were paid off in a different system, but they were not updated in SAP.

So what are my options to clear these open items :

I am guessing i need to create an account and then clear these open items with that account, but then how do i do that - LSMW ?? as they are a lot of open items.

All answers/options/ideas/views would be really appreciated and duly rewarded with points.

Thanks,

Nandita

Hi,

You check out with T.Code:

F.13 - Without specification of Clearing currency

F13E - With clearing currency specified.

hope this helps.

Please assign points as a way to say thanks.

Creating or even using something like a data migration account is the best way.

Are you saying that you have a GL account with say 100 line items and you want them all cleared. If that is the case you wont need a LSMW, make sure you know the amount, and then create a journal posting to your new GL account, and select all items in the GL account you want to clear.

If there are various GL accounts, again no real problem, in F-03 which is what you would be using, you can enter more than GL account so that should not be an issue.

Nadita,

use SCAT to load the data an then clear the data through F-04 or develop Zprogram to perform both the function.

Dear Ravi, we have the similar issue. Need to clear the G/L open item, for that we use BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST but the document is creating. The problem is the selected open itemis not clearing. Please give some suggestions on this and if u developed any ZPROGRAM, then it can be useful if u send me the sample code.

Pls help in this regard, we are facing serious issue in this.
