Hi,

Change the GRIR clearing account in T Code OBYC transaction event key WRX.

Transfer the old balnce from old GL to New GL by using manual JV.

Please check and confirm.

Hi,

In the same category my problem is a bit different.

Creating my goods receipt, the system posts to the GR/IR clearing account 408xxxxxx fromm MM account determination (WRX so).

When the account assignment category of my purchase order is "ASSET", I would like the system to post another GR/IR clearing account 408.

Is it possible ?

How can I do ?

Thank's for your answers...

yes you can do that, you are supposed to change the accout determination of asset to the desired gl account say xxxxx in OBYC. then whenn ever the end user posts invoice the GL account is debited automatically.

Note: IN FS00 CHECK AUTOMATIC POSTING IN ACCOUNT MASTER.

Hi Lee,

First you need to post invoice for all open GRs then you can change the G/L Acct. for GR/IR clearing Account (transaction event key WRX) in OBYC.

1) Changing the GR/IR account is done in configuration with transaction OBYC. The transaction key is WRX.

2) Before doing this change I would highly recommend to clear all differences in the old account using transaction MR11. If some of the differences have to be posted to the new account you need to do this with the respective transactions. e.g. MIGO, MIRO, etc.

Bottom line this is a dangerous thing to do in a system were the GR/IR account was already posted at. It needs planning of the sequence and a lot of testing.

Hope that helps.
