Clearing customer Items with Special G/L Indicator 'A' (down payment)

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I've to clear two items of a customer by t.code F-32:

Both items, that I dysplays by t.code FBL5N (u20AC 20.000,00 and - 20.000,00), are with Special G/L Indicator 'A' (down payment).

Only the first one contains a 'tax amount' equal to 4.000,00.

When I process the open Items of the customer by t.code F-32, I expect to see the two items as follows

20.000,00

- 20.000,00

Instead, SAP displays as follows

24.000,00

- 20.000,00

So, I can't clear them as 24.000,00 is not equal to 20.000,00

Could anyone tell me ho to solve?

Thanks

Dear Rossi,

please be kindly informed that:

the Down payments can be posted net or gross. This depends on the

tax category in the G/L account master data of the special G/L

account used for down payments (not of the special G/L account used

for down payment requests): Tax category '+B' means gross, tax category

'+ ' means net. In Your case, please check by FS00 which is the Tax Category of Your relevant G/L account.

Standard system takes into account the VAT amount for the down payment

during clearing according to this settings.

Of course a change of this setting will only have effect on postings

executed after that, not on already existing postings.

Please do a test with the two different configuration and this will give an answer to Your dubts.

I hope this can help.

Hi Maurizio,

first of all, thanks for your answer.

I've checked the tax category in the G/L account master data of the special G/L

account used for down payments (A). Tax category is equal to '+ '.

According to this setting, I posted a customer credit memo as follow:

Item 01; posting key 11; Customer account XXX; Amount 24.000,00

Item 02; posting key 09; Customer account XXX; Special G/L Indicator A; Amount 20.000,00 (tax code 20%)

Item 03; posting key 40; Debit tax account; Amount 20.000,00 (tax code 20%)

Now I've to clear the item 02 of that credit memo. When I try to do it by t.code F-32, SAP displays the amount 24.000,00 (with tax amount) and not 20.000,00.

Clearing that item, the system create a automatic posting for tax account of 4000,00.

This is my issue: SAP shouldn't create this posting for tax account.

Thank again.

Hi Dianne,

It doesn't work as I need.

During the clearing SAP want to post on the tax account.

when you posted the dp, was there a "tax clearing" line item created?

[Former Member]

Yes, a "tax clearing" line item is created!

What should I do?

Thanks

Charge off the difference to the Tax Clearing by selecting the open item for that account.
