f.13

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to use automatic clearing (F.13) to clear AP and Payables in advance. The debit amount and credit amount is equal.

I have tick "select vendosr" and "special G/L transactions", also choose special indicator "L" which is used to post payables in advance, and choose the vendor to be cleared.

However, the program can not find the open items to clear.

I have try to clear AP debit and credit with same amount via F.13. It can find the open items to clear.

So I think it's impossible to clear AP and AP with special indicators even they have same amount and match all the criterions configured in OB74. Is this right? if not, why cannot I do the clearing above?

Thank you in advance.

As you might already know, according to the program documentation the following items are not cleared

Noted items

Statistical postings and special G/L transactions of the type bill of exchange

Items containing withholding tax postings (country-specific).

Down payments can only be cleared if down payment clearing for the same amount has been posted

If looks like it depends on the type of special GL you are trying to clear. Why cant you use f-44? that will do the job.

Hi David

One of the pre-requsites to the clearing program is that 'The items cannot be special G/L transactions.' To clear these items, you use special functions to clear these items. Moreover when you post special G/L transactions, the system generates automatic postings. For example, the system can post tax on down payments or bill of exchange tax on bills of exchange receivable.

I hope this helps
