Define Reconciliation Accts Without Credit Management Update (SAP Library - Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable)

Define Reconciliation Accts Without Credit Management Update

In this IMG activity, you can cancel the credit management update function for certain postings by posting to an additional reconciliation account; the reconciliation account without credit management update.
When you make postings to the standard reconciliation account, the receivables total within credit management is then updated, but those postings made to the reconciliation account without credit management update are not.

Example

In Japan, various receivables that are considered certain to be received are excluded from credit management update, including:

Active prepaid/deferred items

Payments by letter of credit

Requirements

You define the reconciliation account to be posted to in the normal way in the customer master record. The system defaults this account when you make a posting. You cannot normally make an entry in this field.
If you wish to make postings to both the standard reconciliation account and to a reconciliation account without credit management update, you must select the field "Reconciliation account ready for input" in both master records.

Activities
