Dear SAP Experts,
In the client I am currently working on, for incoming payments when we upload bank statements, it is only generated posting area 1 ( debit main bank account and credit transit bank account) and posting area 2 is generated manually ( debit transit bank account, credit customer open item)
We think that via "search string" functionality that SAP offers once the bank statement is uploaded posting area 2, could be posted too.
In the payment note that we have on the bank statement (:86) we have the company code followed by the billing document, let's say something like "AAAA009xxxxxxx", where AAA is the company code and 009xxxxxxx is the billing document and we have made the setting in the search string as follow:
1) Search String definition
-Name: no relevant
-Description: no relevant
-Source: 009#######
-Mapping: 009#######
2) Search string use
Positive value
Interpretation: 0021 "Reference document number search"
Based on the setting just mentioned, we understand that once bank statement is uploaded, posting area 1 will be uploaded ( as usual) and posting area 2 too, with debit in transit bank account and credit on the customer open item related to the billing document that appear on the payment note of the bank statement.
Unfortunately, it does not work, and only posting area 1 is generated, for the posting area 2, we receive the following error: "Error (F5 263) the difference is too large for clearing". We believe that this message error is because system is not able to find the customer open item related to the billing document that appear on the bank statement.
We have defined the posting rule as follows:
DT02 1 40 DT BANK 50 DT INCOMING BK 1
DT02 2 40 DT INCOMING DZ 8
Is there anything wrong in our settings?
I look forward hearing from you when possible?
Apologies for the inconvenience.
Yours Sincerely,
Javier
