Auto Clearing in FSCD

Former Member
0 Kudos

Hi Friends,

I need your input for achieving the following requirement.

whenever integration happens between  FSCD and FSPM the values of VVSCPOS table will get filled automatically.

We run the VYSPA and it will post the items.

Now the requirement is once Vyspa posts the open item the clearing should happen automatically.

Currently we had created Z Program and schedule as Backround job and it is clearing the open time but this is not the requirement.

The clearing needs to be automated.

Your Help is highly appreciated.Thanks.

Regards,

Vijay.

Hi, There are two ways to cater to this requirement.

1) Schedule FPY1 (after VYSPA) for the document type of the items posted by VYSPA and clear them.

2) Since you already have a Z program to take care of this. You can probably call the Z clearing program in the event of VYSPA to clear the open items. This shall make the sure that once open items are posted by VYSPA they are cleared right away.

However I would prefer scheduling FPY1 as this shall make the whole process flexible. if you have posted incorrect items using VYSPA you can still reverse them before FPY1 is executed.

On the other hand if you follow the second option, you will have to reverse clearing and posting which maybe tedious to do so.

Your project FSCD functional consultants shall be able to guide you further on this requirement.

Thanks

Hi Vijay Ranga,

There is no role of VYSPA in FS-PM and FS-CD integration. This means you don't need to execute Debit run or the transaction VYSPA. The standard interface calls the ISCD_SCPOS_MAINTAIN RFC and open items are created in FS-CD. This is completely automated.

Then once open items are created, you can set-up payment run and other follow up transactions.

Conclusion is that the whole process is automated and you don't need any Z program or table.

All the best...hope this info helps..

Hi,

SAP has provided automatic clearing(FPMA) functionality for the exact requirement you are looking for. Have you already tried it.

Thanks,

Hi, Let me try to justify when FPY1/ FPMA is useful for clearing receivables at a very basic level. To keep it simple open billed/ non billed receivables, partial or complete clearing, are not taken into consideration at the moment.

FYP1 - clears receivables when payment is initiated by Insurance co ( at that time the clearing is direct and internal in the FSCD system)

FPMA - clears receivables when payment is initiated by customer (at that time in FSCD system, the cash / credit items which were posted by the customer following which FPMA clears open debit ( payment request) items against the available cash / credit items ).

Once this is decided the impact on the following downstream areas needs to be considered ( to name a few);

1) Accounting

2) Dunning ( specially end dunning)

3) Correspondence

4) Returns

5) Write off ( on account of returns / rejects if any)

6) Invoicing for the next premium due ( if any)

I am guessing that our friend Vijay Ranga is concerned with payments initiated by Insurance co.

Thanks
