Clearing of open line items in Exchange Vendor account

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

We have an issue related with the clearing of open items from the exchange vendor account. Details of issue are as follows,

We have two open line items in an exchange vendor account (T-code FBL1N) pertaining to the Logistics purchase invoice and a credit memo. These documents are very old documents posted in the year 2005. When user tries to clear or net these documents using T-code FB1K( using the current period), SAP generates the clearing document, i.e. it gives only a clearing document number and sends an email to user stating that update has been terminated. When we try to view the clearing document so generated using T-code FB03, system do not finds it, i.e. it is actually not in system / tables. Also most important thing these open items continues to appear in the vendor account, i.e. they are not getting cleared.

Some of our observations about the related exchange Purchase Order is that, this PO has document date 03/31/2004 having qty. 5659 GA. The very first GR and related invoice is also having qty 5659 GA and posting date of 03/31/2004. After this user had again created above mentioned documents that are in question i.e. invoice and credit memo. These documents were posted on 04/12/2005 for the qty of 22592 GA (Even though the PO qty is 5659 GA).

Now we would like to know what would be the probable reason for these open items not getting cleared from the vendor account. Please note user also tried to clear these documents using F-44 T-code but no luck.

Thanks,
