Document Clearing

• Open items are incomplete transactions, such as a vendor invoice

which has not been paid. In order for an open item transaction to be

considered complete, the transaction must have been cleared.

• A clearing transaction always creates a clearing document.

• Only Balance Sheet Items are Open Item managed

Document Clearing

 An example of posting with clearing :

• An invoice posted to a customer's account.

• This invoice is regarded as an open item because at this point it isunpaid.

• The customer pays the invoice and the payment is allocated to it.

• The invoice is cleared with the payment and the resulting balance iszero.

 An example of account clearing:

• Manually clearing an open invoice with a related credit memo andpayment on account

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/customer-vendor-asset-posting 13/41

Manual Clearing

 A “manual payment” is a transaction that clears an open item, typically an

invoice, by manually allocating an offsetting amount to the open item.

 An “incoming payment”, typically used in Accounts Receivable, clears anopen debit amount.

 An “outgoing payment”, typically used in Accounts Payable , clears an open

credit amount.

 A manual payment is processed in three steps:

1. Document header information is filled out.

2. Open items are selected to be cleared.

3. The transaction is saved.

 Asset Accounting

The integration of the subsidiary ledgers with the general ledger is as

important as the integration of accounting and logistics functions.

Every transaction in customer and vendor accounts in Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable and in the asset accounts has a direct effect on the

corresponding accounts of the general ledgers.

Thus the subsidiary ledgers are always in balance with their G/L

reconciliation accounts.

The G/L reconciliation accounts need to be set up in advance together with

the Fixed Assets department.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/customer-vendor-asset-posting 26/41

 Asset Acquisition

• The primary business process in asset accounting is the purchase of assetsand/or the capitalization of in-house produced goods or services.

• Two Types of Acquisitions:

 – Assets under Construction - acquisitions to fixed assets that are notpermitted to be capitalized and depreciated immediately.

 – Direct Capitalization - asset acquisitions that are capitalized and begindepreciation immediately.

• The following information is automatically set in the asset master record atthe time of the first acquisition posting:

- Capitalization date of the asset (derived from asset value date)

- Date of initial acquisition on the asset master record (derived from assetvalue date)

- Acquisition year and acquisition period (derived from posting date)

Transaction Types

• The asset history sheet reports and other FI-AA reports use thetransaction type to identify the different kinds of transactions anddisplay them separately

• You can define your own transaction types. They can be used to

separate various types of accounting or business transactions inreports.

Depreciation

• In addition to the automatic calculation of depreciation using depreciationkeys, you can also plan manual depreciation for individual assets in the

FI-AA component.

• When you enter the transaction type, the system recognizes that you

want to perform manual depreciation

• After you have manually planned depreciation, the system does not yet

create an FI document.

• This document is not generated until the depreciation posting program is

run.

• Down payments are used for short or medium-term financing.

• Down payments are generally made before production begins or after

partial completion.

• A Receivable or Payable results from the delivery of a tangible asset or

the performance of a service.

• Down payments must not be balanced with other receivables or

payables and must be displayed separately on the balance sheet.

• On the balance sheet, down payments made are displayed on the

assets side and down payments received on the liabilities side.

Down Payments

• Down payments made are further divided, depending on whether they

are:

 – Down payments on tangible fixed assets

 – Down payments on intangible fixed assets

 – Down payments on inventory stocks

 – General down payments.

• Once we have received the goods or services for which we made a

down payment, we need to clear this payment for the final settlement

either manually or using the payment program

Down Payments

• You can enter down payments manually or have the payment program

post them.

• Down payments are posted to separate special G/L accounts (down

payment accounts) depending on the down payment type

• When you enter a down payment, the system offers the following

support:
