Changing GL account on house bank - clearing problem

[Former Member]

I have changed the GL account on one of our house banks in FI12. However when running the payment program, the auto clearing entry is using the old house bank number. We use a cash clearing account when setting up the payable. The payment program then posts the payment crediting the cash clearing account and debiting AP. Then there is an auto posting debiting the cash clearing account and crediting the house bank. I know there must be some config in the IMG that tells that auto posting what the house bank GL account is - but I cannot find it.

Any ideas would be appreciated!

Hi,

You have changed the GL Account associated with the House Bank. If you need to change the clearing account, you need to change the sub account. This change can be made in Transaction code FBZP. In this transaction code, click on the Tab - Bank Determination and then select the Company code and click on Bank Accounts.

This should resolve your problem.

Thanks

Thanks Murali for your quick response! However, my clearing account number has not changed - just the house bank main GL number. What is odd is that when the clearing entry is made it is using the OLD house bank GL number rather than the new one I specified in FI12. I'm thinking there must be some clearing config or auto posting config that needs to be changed so that clearing entry uses the new house bank number. ??

Hi,

The change you have made in FI12 is correct. When clearing is done, system should select the GL Account from here. I am not sure whether you are testing this in Test system or in Production system.

If the problem is in Production system, check whether the transport is moved correctly and it has updated the GL Account in Production system.

Thanks

I'm testing in our test environment. I checked my transport from Development to Staging and it looks ok - FI12 looks right. We must have spooks in our system!

I'll try another test in another test environment. I'm glad to know I did the config right and I didn't miss anything...so far.

Thanks again.

FYI - Seems this configuration in FI12 is buggy. I found a note on OSS - 98098. Guess I wasn't crazy after all!
