FI Errors and Probable Solutions

These are some of the issue for which probable solutions are given, hope they are helpful :
Scenario 1:
I have configured FBZP, Fi12 for house bank. But when I am doing payment run in
F110 I am getting following error:
Company codes X1YZ/X1YZ do not appear in proposal 05/03/2006 REMI2.
Diagnosis
No data exists for the specified paying company code X1YZ and the specified sending
company code X1YZ in payment proposal 05/03/2006 REMI2.
System response
The payment proposal cannot be edited.
Procedure
Check the flow trace and payment proposal list in order to determine why the specified
company codes are not contained in the proposal
Solution :
* Thats generic error for payment run, check whether there are any due items as on date
(tcode fbl1n). You can also change the baseline date there and rerun it. if you still get same
error.. Check the proposal log, you will find the reason.
* Try to see first whether any open items exist. By using FBL1N.
Scenario 2:
How to make the payment through automatic payment program, through F-110 .What
are the prerequisites?
Solution :
For Down payments to be paid using APP we have create a Down Payment request F-47.
Scenario 3:
While doing APP, after, " the payment proposal has been created message " if edit
proposal is selected, I am getting the error as "Company code ABC/ABC do no appear
in the proposal "
Solution :
This type of error comes when your Payment proposal doesn't have any items to process.
Check the parameters and ensure invoices are due as on run date.
Scenario 4 :
While posting customer invoice (FB70) why system asks for G/L account? As per
accounting rules customer is debited and Customer reconciliation a/c is credited that
ends double entry book keeping rule. Why one more G/L account on top of Recon a/c,
which is posted automatically?
Solution :
* Entry gets posted to Customer a/c through reconciliation account. You have to give a GL
a/c for revenue.
Your entry would be
Customer (Reconciliation a/c) Dr
and for EBS dont u have document ?

Hi, Better to discuss with FI consultant for this problem, you can check the following step for
the problem,

1- Get the Recon. account for the vendor maintained from T-code XK03,
2- Use T-code OBYR and find out the Special G/L account maintained against your Recon.
account w.r.t combination of Acct Type & SGL ind(K&F,K&V),

3- Check in T-code FS00 for vendor Recon. account & Special G/L account,Check in control
data tab for "Recon. account for acct type" whether 'K VENDOR' is maintained for both these
GL's, if not then maintain over there & do the cycle.

Venkata Ramana Ganga Jan 2, 2012 1:08 PM (in response to Senthil Kumar)
In FBKP settings the vendor recon account is assigned to the special G/L account
which is giving the error.
This is done by finance team. Pl check with them.

The error F5355 is related to FI-AA. Please check with the finance team in order to
check settings on the FI side.

Hi Patil,

while creating down payment request through F-47, system is

not checking whether that account is recon account or not but
it's checking whether you have maintained an account which is
linked to vendor recon account in OBYR. While posting the
down payment through F-48, it's checking whether that
additional down payment account is recon or not.

Hi,

Goto XK03,FK03 and check which Reconcillation account G/L a/c is assigned there.It
should be a Recon account ask your FI team to check the same the correct it.Then try
to Post the down payement it will work...

You can also check the same in FS03.

Re: Vendor down payment - GL account error

Senthil Kumar Jan 2, 2012 1:59 PM (in response to Mallinath Patil)

My main issue is, Vendor which I want to post down payment already has a
recon account "ABC". But when I try to post it through F-48, it's throwing
error with different GL account "XYZ" with the error this account is not a
recon account. Yes, I can change this account to recon account in FS00. But
still I want to know from where it's coming from.

G/L error while posting an amount - TXN:

FPE1 - SAP ISU
This question has been Answered.

Hello Experts,

We are in the process of implementing SAP ISU functionality for a utility client. In order to
support their utility process we are configuring their SAP System from scratch.

Now after completing basic configuration such as main-sub, AD ID, G/L I tried to post
amount using transaction FPE1.

SAP system gave me error saying that u2018Account COCODE G/LXXX is not a
reconciliation account for FI-CAu2019.

So after reading few threads on SDN I updated G/L account and changed its field value for
u2018Recon account for account typeu2019 from blank to u2018contract account
receivableu2019.

Then after doing this I tried again but system now game me an another error saying 'G/L
account COCODE G/LXXX cannot be posted to, please correct your entry i.e. This G/L
account is blocked against posting or is a reconciliation account and cannot be posted to
directly'.

What should I do now? I am damn sure I missed some ISU configuration. Please suggest
some way out.

P.S. I am not a G/L expert so if possible please be detailed.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Nikhil,

The answer to your question are as follows-

(a) Any GL A/c in SAP can be either created as a P/L A/c or a Balance Sheet A/c.It cannot be
both.
So, to answer your query, you need to create two separte GL A/c1 reconcilation A/c, like XX1 (with account grp as Balance Sheet A/c) which needs to be
assigned in EK01.
1 revenue A/c, like XX2 (with account grp as Balance Sheet A/c) which needs to be assigned
in EK02.

(b) If you see in EK02, there is an option of assigning a CO assignment object.Normally for
revenue postings, like manual postings, invoices a profit centre is assigned where as for bad
debts, discounts etc.. a cost centre is assigned.

The cost element only comes into picture, if there is a cost centre\profit centre assigned to it.
However, if you do not have them also, then it has no dependency with the posting of a FICA document.

Just assign the proper GL A/c in EK01 and Ek02 respectively, and check whether you are
able to post a document or not..

Hope it helps....

Thanks,
Amlan

Re: G/L error while posting an amount - TXN: FPE1 - SAP ISU

Amlan Banerjee May 8, 2011 10:49 AM (in response to Nikhil Jathar)

Hi,

This is a very basic problem.

To start with, when you post a FI-CA document through FPE1 using a particular
combination of main\sub, then two types of GL A/c comes into picture-

Reconciliation Account, like Debtors A/c

Revenue Account, like Sales A/c

The reconciliation account is configured in transaction EK01 against the combination

of company code, AD ID, Div (Not necessary) and main transaction.
The revenue account is confgured in transaction EK02 against the combination of
company code, AD ID, Div (Not necessary) main transaction and subtransaction.

You have made the correct changes for the initial error by changing ther GL A/c field
value for u2018Recon account for account typeu2019 from blank to u2018contract
account receivableu2019.

Now for the latest error that you are getting check whether the GL A/c that you have
configured in EK02 is a revenue account or not.

A very simple approach would be to take the GL A/c and go to FS00 and check the
account group.

If it is a " P&L Statement A/c", then its a revenue account, other wise not.

In Ek02, it will always be a revenue account for any non-statistical posting,

If all above things are perfect, then check the cost element associated with the GL A/c.

Hope it helps..

Amlan

Re: G/L error while posting an amount - TXN: FPE1 - SAP ISU

Nikhil Jathar May 8, 2011 11:35 AM (in response to Amlan Banerjee)

Thanks Amlan, your reply is extremely helpful.

I have few questions:

1. So I have G/L XX1 (recon account). I configured this G/L in TXN EK01.
Now after that do I need to create different G/L for revenue account i.e. G/L
XX2 then configure that G/L XX2 in TXN EK02? or will I be using same G/L
XX1 with radio button "P&L Statement A/c" checked, then configuring this
G/L XX1 in EK02?

2. My second question is about cost element, so it seems that there is no cost

element defined for this G/L XX1 (G/L XX2 also in case if we need separate
G/L for revenue account). Also, cost center is not defined by our FI person.
Can you please suggest me few steps to define cost center + cost element.

As always thanks for your patience and help.

Hi ,

First of all EK01 is ment for assigning debtors reconcilliation account i.e let say
Enegry customer LT .

Secondly after configuring in EK01 the next step is of assigning the revenue / expense
account to EK02 in a match of say - co code , division , account dertmination id.

Here you can either default the CO account assignment or can derive it from the
consumer contract , it all depends on your design.

In case of cost elements - All the P&L type of accounts have to be created as cost
elements else if you have activated controlling then errors would crop up while
posting the same , like cost object is to be entered .

Cost elements can be created from KA01 or in IMG settings you can define whether
you want the cost elements to be created automatically or not , if you select
automatically then system would create the cost element at the time of creation of GL
account .
Well Amlan has briefed you necessary details , hope this piece of info. would work
out for you ....

cheers ,
