Outstanding in vendor even though payment made

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We have an issue. All the vendor invoices pertaining to particular site (business area) are paid. There are not outstanding payments to be made. The payment was made without specifying Business Area. In vendor line item display there is a balance even though vendor is paid. The payment document also has a clearing document. The outstanding displayed in vendor is the total of the payment documents generated without Business Area. I am confused. How clearing is done against this and how clearing document is generated without clearing the line items?

Anyway how can this amount be cleared on vendor? Please guide.

Hi,

Please check how the payment has been done, through which t.code....because it varies if it was done as a F-44 Vendor clearing. In that case a AB document will get generated as open item it the user donesn't properly do the clearing.

Check what is the document type the system has generated and also check do this vendor has any advance, go to FBL1N and give the vendor and dont select special GL under normal items .

Are you using Document splitting based on Business Area. If yes, then check for splitting characteristics

Hi Komal,

Try clearing the documents manually so that they are cleared.

You may clear from F-03 or F.13.

HI,

When payment is done with any of the business area the vendor account going to clear irrespective of business area. It is becoz of clearing document has not triggered with the document type KR. Anyways it shows in the balance as nullified. Go and check in FBL1N.

Dear Srinivas,

Thanks for the message. No the vendor balance is not nullified. I have checked before raising this message.
