Hi Dau,

I can understand your plight. Z1 should be a customized reason code, I
suppose. Every reason code can contain one of the two options a) using
the initial date as the posting date for reversal or b) using an
alternative posting date for the reversal document. Since posting date for
the reversal is dependent on the reason code, I asked you for it. Are you
an end user ? If so, then it is unlikely that you have access to IMG to
check how your reason code has been configured.

Never mind, anyway.

Please run FBL1N with 31 Jan 2012 as your key date and select ALL ITEMS
instead of OPEN ITEMS. I guess you will find the invoice as an open item
now. If you do see the invoice as an open item, then you have no issue at
all and you have not done anything wrong. Explaining to your boss is very
easy since SAP is correct in presenting the correct picture..

Let us recreate the scenario and you will understand things better:

Step 01: Jan 7 , 2012.... you posted a vendor invoice A for 100 USD which
automatically becomes an open item ( for FBL1N).

Step 02: Jan 15, 2012....you cleared Invoice A against a payment document
and the invoice becomes a cleared item now (for FBL1N)

Step 03: Jan 31, 2012 ...You extract FBL1N for open items and Invoice A
does not show up in your report ( Absolutely right behavior).

Step 04: Feb 03, 2012... You find out a mismatch and so reset and reverse.
The impact of this reversal is to negate the clearing carried out vide Step
02.) In other words, Step 01 holds good now again. This is because Invoice
A (wrongly cleared but now reversed) is still due for payment to your
vendor....Is it not? That means......Invoice A for 100 USD is back an open
item.

Step 05: Feb 03, 2012.....You try to recreate FBL1N as of key date 31 Jan
2012. and Invoice A is still open ( pending clearance).

Therefore, Invoice A showed up as a (wrongly) cleared item as of 31 Jan
2012 in step 03 but showed up as an open item when you ran the same report
again vide step 05.

There is nothing alarming about it.

Regards

VidhyaDhar

Subject: Reset Cleared Documents

Vidhya Dhar ,

A) Reversal Reason Code: Z1 Wrong amount. I don't know how it will impact FBL1N report. Do you have any suggestion on this?

B) Items didn't show up because they were cleared up to that point.

C) Items showed up as open(red indicator).

If I am another person who doesn't know about the reversal. I previously sent report to my boss at the end of last month. The report had 5 items. Now he order the report again. I will extract it again. It now has 7 items. I will be in trouble with my boss if he notice about this different.
