Transaction FPG1 - Transfer to FI

[Former Member]

Good day

I need assistance please.

I have done a FICA transfer with transaction FPG1. Errors occured on the transfer which prevented it from posting to FI. Before I could  do the transfer the reconciliation key has to be closed.

Unfortunately I cannot fix the error on the FI side as it was a valuation rule that was created in GL.

I need to correct a transaction in the reconciliation key to enable the posting to FI.

How can I correct an entry if the reconciliation key is closed already or how can I reverse a closed reconciliation key?

Is there a way that I can do a simulation posting to FI so that errors can be determined and corrected before I close the reconciliation key?

Thank you for your assistance, much appreciated.

Hi Maatjie.

You can use FPG8 for the transfer to the GL reversal. But, this will only reverse the transfer to the general ledger, it will not open the reconciliation key.

Regarding the correction, the best way would be to reverse the incorrect transaction and post a correct one. If the reconciliation key is already closed (as it is in your case), you can do the transactions in a new reconciliation key.

Good day Marko

Thank you so much for your reply.

Transaction FPG8 is not an option as the reconciliation key was not posted to FI yet.

The problem I have is that there are 1800 transactions in this one reconciliation key, only one transaction is incorrect due to a incorrect BA in FI (validation rule), none of the transactions posted to FI.  I need to correct or reverse this one transaction to enable the reconciliation key to post to FI.

The reason I have so many transactions in one reconciliation key is that the customer post all ISU transactions for a spesific day in one reconciliation key and then close and post the reconciliation key at night. So, if there are one transaction incorrect, the whole reconciliation key will not be posted to FI.

Do you know how I can reverse or correct only this one transaction (out of 1800) and post the rest of the transactions in the reconcilaition key to FI?

It is almost impossible to reverse all 1800 ISU transactions and then post it again in a new reconciliation key.

Thank you for assistance, I appreciate.

Hi Maatjie,

You need to reverse the whole reconciliation key and re-post them with correct entries, you can create a program to post all those 1800 transactions.

We had similar issue in the past similar to this and SAP advised the same thing to us as well.

thanks,
