Documentation
Definition
Determines whether postings can be made to the account for specific ledger groups and whether the account can be cleared.
Use
You can use clearing specific to ledger groups if you perform parallel accounting using the ledger approach (and not the account approach). Clearing and making postings specific to ledger groups is intended to support you with your closing tasks. You can use the function for all items that, due to parallel accounting, are posted to and valuated differently in multiple ledgers, in particular for provisions (such as provisions for commission, for rebates, for process risks, or provisions for creating and checking year-end closing).
If you set the indicator for an account, this account is then managed on an open item basis and you can post ledger group-specific entries to this account. In this way, you have a ledger group-specific view of the account. Clearing is also performed for specific ledger groups. Items that are posted to specific ledger groups can only be cleared within the same ledger group. Items that are posted with the initial ledger group can only be cleared within the initial ledger group.
If you want to set the Clearing Specific to Ledger Groups indicator, you need to have set the Only Balances in Local Currency indicator.
It is not permitted for only automatic postings to be made to an account with clearing specific to ledger groups.
Note:
If you set this indicator, it replaces the following indicators:
Consequently, once you have set the Clearing Specific to Ledger Groups indicator, you cannot set either of the other indicators.
Accounts for which you cannot set this indicator
You cannot set the indicator for the following accounts:
- Goods receipt and invoice receipt accounts
- Accounts for cash discounts
- Reconciliation accounts
- Tax-relevant accounts
- P&L accounts
Setting the indicator subsequently
The following applies for setting the indicator subsequently:
- If no postings have been made to the account, you can set the indicator subsequently for the account.
- If the account is not managed on either a line item basis or an open item basis and postings have already been made to the account, proceed as follows:
- Create the line items subsequently using program RFSEPA01.
- Subsequently set the indicator for open item management specific to ledger groups using program FAGL_SWITCH_TO_OPEN_ITEM (transaction:
FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP). - If the account is managed on either a line item basis or an open item basis and postings have been made to the account, you can set the indicator for this account subsequently using program
FAGL_SWITCH_TO_OPEN_ITEM(transaction:FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP).
Dependencies
The indicator is only available when you have activated new General Ledger Accounting and when you have assigned more than one ledger to the company code.
