Unable to post Accounting document as AP from rebate credit memo

[Former Member]

Hi, Experts

I have a question regarding rebate processing.

After settlement of rebate agreements with T-Cd VB(7,

I would like to post Accounting document as AP from rebate credit memo with T-Cd VF01.

But I can't post it.

I hope some advices!

And further information is ...

• G/L Account setting.
  Account Group: ABST
  Recon. account for acct type: K Vendors

• The error message with T-Cd VFX3.
  Account XXXXXXXXXX is not a reconciliation account for account type D

Thanks,

yuki

I would like to post Accounting document as AP from rebate credit memo with T-Cd VF01 

If you want system to automatically pick up your newly created accounting doc type AP on posting your rebate credit memo to accounting. Then assign AP in Document Type in general control of your billing doc type by using TCode VOFA.

  

Account XXXXXXXXXX is not a reconciliation account for account type D

To bypass this error. Whatever account doc type your using releasing your rebate credit memo to accounting, make sure that is relevant for vendor (under account types allowed section of your accounting doc type - TCode OBA7).

So, in your case, accounting doc type AP should get determined on releasing your rebate credit memo to accounting. Make necessary configuration change as mention above to achieve the same.

Hi, Jyoti

Thank you for your answer!

This is really helpful advice to me.

I changed the following setting according to your saying.

Account types allowed in OBA7 is related to Recon. account for acct type in Account control in company code tab T-Cd FS00.

Is my understanding correct?

So I ticked "Vendor" in Account types allowed and

assigned "K Vendors" in  Recon. account for acct type.

But the same error message is still showed up when releasing accounting document with VF01.

What I want to do is posting Account Payable via rebate credit memo with VF01 as you know.

Could you kindly find out another reason why?

I hope your advice!

Thanks,

yuki

Dear,

Account XXXXXXXXXX is not a reconciliation account for account type D

Whatever you are using Recon.Account in XD01 for that customer is not a Recon Account for Acc Type D .Please look into FS00 settings,here we need to specify ,it is Recon.Acc or Ledger or Non ledger Account .One more thing is ,which Account Assignment Category are using in Schedule Line Category ? check in VOV6 .

If possible ,share some screen shots of FS00 .

Note :Right now ,I dont have SAP to check this .

Thanks,

Hi,

Recon. account for acct type: K Vendors

as your settings states Account type is K which means it is a Vendor

But you are posting the accounting document using VF01

This should be posted with Account type D

check the settings in FS00 for your G/L account Under control tab page

Hi, Santosh

I know Recon. account for acct type should be "D Customers" basically regarding the revenue via SD.

But I assigned "V Vendors" into this field because I want to post Account Payable via rebate credit memo with VF01.

Could you kindly tell me how to post it?

Thanks,

yuki

Hi Yuki,

Are you using accruals in the FI document? Please, read SAP Note 456247 - Accrual conditions w/ calculation type 'B' - fixed amount.

I hope this helps you
