matching open items doubt

[Former Member]

hi,

in FB05 first screen, at the first line item, i entered PK 50 and open item managed account A.

on second screen, i provide amount 600 and hit enter and provide another open item managed account B.

1) why $600 at amount entered field is 600- and i need to find PK 50 in assigned field only can return 0 in not assigned field.

2) the list to match is for account B and PK for account B is 40 so why amount entered is referred to credit 600 and not debit 600?

3) the double entry shows is CR account A and DR account B but why in matching screen which list account B account items i need to look for PK 50. confusing me.

thanks

Eliana,

It depends the way the posting keys are been configured.

If 50 is for credit and 40 for debit, then if you type in PK 50 on first screen and mention A/C A and then hit enter and type in 600 on the next screen and type in 40 and A/C B and then hit enter and type in 600 on the next screen and try to save it. This is what happens

Cr A 600

Dr B 600.

Hope that helps..

Thanks,

Nandita
