Behavior of DFKKOP table for autocleared and nonautoclear BPs

[Former Member]

Hi FI-CA gurus,

I've noticed that there are some differences in the DFKKOP table for those items that were reversed with autoclearing versus those that were reversed and nonautocleared but processed via FP06. For autocleared, the business partner items do not appear in the DFKKOP table at all. For those non-autoclear items, even if they were manually cleared, they still appear in DFKKOP. Even the display of the BPs look different in FPE3.  Is this controlled by configuration or is this standard behavior?

Catherine:

the behavior you are seeing is standard.  It depends on the situation when the transaction is processed.  While not exactly the same, i can best describe the behavior using payments as analogy:

An open item exists $10 debit.  A payment is made for $10 which clears that open debit. If you then display the payment document in FPE3, then you would see it similar to what your second scenario looks like.  The payment has a DFKKKO entry but no DFKKOP entry.  The payment document is referenced in DFKKOP via the AUGBL field. 

If however no open item exists and a payment is made, then it would look more like the first scenario. There would be a DFKKKO entry and a DFKKOP entry for the payment document.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for that explanation. In the instance that let's say it is manually cleared or matched against another open item, it would still have the same table behavior in DFKKOP or is it expected to match 2nd scenario where there is payment entry in DFKKKO but no DFKKOP?

Cat:

Manual clearing would be executed with an existing credit document and an existing debit.  Each of those documents has DFKKKO and DFKKOP entries.  The clearing would be executed and a third, new document is created.  This clearing document will exist in DFKKKO but will not have its own entry in DFKKOP.  The clearing document number would be referenced as the clearing document for both of the original open items in AUGBL.
