You enter document line items and then select the open items to be cleared. The system generates one or more offsetting postings for the open items to be cleared

Account clearing You select open items that balance to zero from an account. The system then marks these items as cleared. It enters a clearing document number and the clearing date in the document items.

Automatic Clearing This program clear open items from customer, vendor and G/L accounts. It uses predefined criteria to group together open items per account. If the balance of the group of open items equals zero in local, foreign, and where applicable, the parallel currency, the items are marked as cleared.

Scenario We perform post with clearing using transaction code F-04 (Manual clearing). There was a wrong posting in the Bank account 111415 – interim posting which needs to be transferred to 111419. GL 111415 is open item managed and hence the need to use this transaction. Requirements None

Balance sheet type This parameter controls which periods flow into the reporting and comparison period. The following entries are possible: 1: This means that an accumulated balance sheet is created, that is, the balance is calculated from the balance carried forward plus the periods 01 to the upper limit of the reporting and comparison periods you have specified. The lower limit specified in these parameters is ignored in this case. Balance sheet accounts and P+L accounts are treated the same. 2: This means that a flow of funds analysis is created, that is, the balance is calculated from the reporting and comparison periods you specified. The balance carried forward is not taken into consideration. Balance sheet accounts and P+L accounts are treated the same. 3: This means a combination of possibilities "1" and "2". Here balance sheet accounts are dealt with as described under balance sheet type 1, and P+L accounts as described under balance sheet type 2. 4: This means that an opening balance sheet is created. Here only the balance carried forward is used for the reporting and comparison periods. Accounts which have not yet been posted to or have a zero balance, are also displayed in this variant.

It is recommended to select Balance Sheet Type number 3.
