Use

CO actual postings that exceed the limits of balancing units of the general ledger (for example, fund or business area) act as an effective payment flow between fund or business area in fund-based accounting. If in general, you want payments in the general ledger to be updated in a special cash desk, payment fund, or business area, you can do this using the function described here for real-time postings of Controlling in the general ledger.

The update of real-time postings CO-FI is aligned using the original update of the reconciliation ledger in which each FI line item is offset by an offsetting entry in a fund/business area clearing account.

Requirements

  • The Define Variants for Real-Time Integration is active and a corresponding document type is defined. The document splitting characteristic with balance zero (see below) are selected for the line item selection for the CO-FI real-time integration.
  • The New General Ledger Accounting is active.
  • The Document Splitting is active and a splitting method is assigned.
  • The document type for the update documents of Controlling in Financial Accounting is classified by a suitable business transaction.

Standard settings

If you have (for example, in an earlier release) already configured the reconciliation ledger, the clearing account from the business area clearing account defined is proposed, but it can be overwritten.

Activities

Carry out the following activities:

  • Create two clearing accounts for CO real-time postings:
    • Clearing account 1 for the offsetting entry lines for the original line items
    • Clearing account 2 for mapping to
  • Maintain the account determination for the CO-FI reconciliation accounts by defining a clearing account for your chart of accounts for the specified account key FCA and FCC and the posting key for debit and credit posting items.
  • Make sure that the clearing accounts for document distribution are classified and that a suitable yet different item category (for example, 01000 for balance sheet account 1, 80000, 'customer-specific item category' for clearing account 2) is defined.
  • Make sure that the business transaction variant for the document type of CO-FI update documents are defined in such a way that both item categories are allowed for the clearing accounts.
  • Make sure that for your splitting method for the document type of CO-FI update documents a splitting rule is configured in such a way that the item category of clearing account 2 is controlled by the processing category 0 (transfer of fixed value (no distribution) and a constant is defined. No distribution rule should be created for the item category of clearing account 1.

    This Constant must be assigned values for all document splitting characterstics of the general ledger with balance zero (balancing units).

  • Activate the balancing of CO real-time postings in the general ledger and the implementation FM_COFI_POOLED_CASH of BAdI FAGL_COFI_ACDOC_MOD.

Example

Cost center C2 and fund F2 have a service in value of 100 EUR for cost center C1, fund F1. As compensation, a CO-actual posting of 100 EUR of cost center C1, fund F1 is entered for C2 / F" using primary cost type A. The corresponding G/L document has the following structure:

Account    Fund    Debit/Credit Indicator    Amount

A    F1    D    100

A    F2    C    100

This posting has the connotation to a payment. A constant payment fund (PF) is updated in the general legder for payments with active balancing of CO real-time postings:

Account    Fund    Partner Fund    Credit/Debit Indicator.    Amount

A    F1    F2    D    100

Clearing1     F1            F2     C     100

Clearing1     F1     PF     D    100   

Clearing2     PF     F1     D     100

A     F2     P1     C    100

Clearing1     F2     F1     D     100

Clearing1     F2     PF     C     100

Clearing2     PF     F2 ,CH     100

As the document breakdown is balanced in general according to combination of characteristic and partner, more lines are added in the general ledger view of the document:

Account    Fund    Partner Fund    Debit/Credit Indicator    Amount

A     F1     F2     D     100

Clearing1     F1     F2     C     100

Clearing1     F1     PF     D     100

Clearing2     PF     F1     D     100

A     F2     P1     C     100

Clearing1     F2     F1     C     100

Clearing2     PF     F2     C     100

Balance zero     F1     PF     D     100

Balance zero     PF     F1     C     100

Balance zero     F2     PF     C     100

Balance zero     PF     F2     D     100
