How to reset field XLGCLR Clearing Specific to Ledger Groups in account data master

[Former Member]

Hi, the field XLGCLR "Clearing Specific to Ledger Groups" was activated by error in an account data master and now it is not possible to reset.

The fact is that currently we can't set fields "Line Item" and "Open Item Management" because of that, and neither the report fbl3n can be ran.

Does Anybody know how to deactivate that field?

Thanks in advance,

Dani.

Hi,

Functionally speaking, deactivation of this flag is not possible. Please, consult note  1898300 - FSS0 - Deactivation Clearing Specific to Ledger Groups for more details. Technically speaking, you can make some updates directly in the tables, but this should be done with the utmost precaution.

Regards,

Hi Eli, thanks a lot for your helpful answer. I was looking for a note oss but I didn't find that one.

I think that doing a little program that modified that field in execution could be a solution because in table directly is not possible because the system don't leave to save the register.

Kinds Regards,

Dani

Well, it is anyway possible, but not advisable You should not only modify SKB1 table, but also FI tables, where this field is equally filled for the documents posted on this account. Not speaking of the fact, that only certain ledgers (if relevant in your case) might have been affected.

Hi,

If you make changes directly in the table it could cause issues in the closing programs/accruals engine and during migration(eg to s4, subsequent splitting activation and so on)
