Zero balance clearing account and note 961937

[Former Member]

Ideally the Zero balance clearing account should be an open item managed account but as per SAP note 961937 You must not set the "Line item display" setting for the zero balance clearing account for document splitting in the G/L account master record.

Can somebody explain the contradiction ?

Hi Aastha,

I differ from what you said, since it is already a ' Zero Balance A/c ' it does not make sense to have it again on open item management also SAP note which you have mentioned just says it should have a 'Post automatically only'.

Also, when you check line item management indicator in GL Master record, system updates data in 'Index tables' (BSIS, BSAS, BSEG etc) whereas we use zero balance account only for General Ledger View that to for technical purposes.

I hope it clarifies..
