Subject: Open line item Management not working properly,

There is a solution for this using a program supplied by SAP to rebuild the open items from before the account was changed to open item managed BUT you need an expert to apply the solution. You have to copy and rename the SAP program, apply all relevant patches and then block the account against posting while you run the program. Here is an extract from my own documentation of this problem:-

<< If you set up a G/L account without open item management and subsequently want to change this, you have to change the master record and then rebuild the open items using an ABAP = RFSEPA02. Open item management can only be used in balance sheet accounts. The G/L account has to be blocked for posting (TCode FS05) during the operation and unblocked afterwards. If there is a balance on the account SAP will not let you modify the master record. The simple way to get around this is to make a journal entry clearing the account down to zero - post the opposite entry to a suspense account and make sure nobody else posts anything to the account you are working on before you block it for posting. After you have run RFSEPA02 to rebuild open items, you unblock the account for posting and then reverse your journal entry with "posting with reference -generate reverse posting". It is wise to put a text in the journal entry which explains what it is for to stop the auditors getting all excited about it).

If you are in a version higher than 4.6B you can not run this program unless you do modifications as per note 0175960 or 210999. Many SAP customers have made a mess of this process. Read also note 67456. Check the OSS notes for instructions on this procedure. As of 4.6C you need to do a small customization of the program that converts the account to open item managed. SAP has had so many problems with this they modified the conversion program so that it will no longer just run. A developer key holder will need to comment out the new code added in 4.6C before the program will actually do the conversion. The note has all of the steps required with the order they need to be performed in. What SAP tells you is to make a copy of the original report into ZFSEPA02 and execute that report instead. Please note that this program cannot be run if the new GL Functionality is active. In that case, you need to transfer the data to a new GL account with the desired characteristics. If you use new GL you should use the transaction FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP. This transaction is only available as of a certain service pack. >>

As you can see, it is pretty involved which is why I said you need an expert to do it. I would advise that you call in such an expert and pay him accordingly.

Rgds, Roy
