Specific Posting Processes I: Document Reversal
SAP AG 2008, Public Sector Collections and Disbursements / Specific Posting Processes / 5
Various document reversal options are available for specific business requirements:
Reversal of individual documents reverses single documents that are not yet
cleared or may be used to reverse all documents that contain the same document
reference number. You will get a pop-up with all cleared items that need to be reset
to reverse a document. In the pop-up you have got the possibility to reset the
documents.
Resetting of cleared items for individual documents is used to reverse a clearing
document’s effects.
Mass reversal of documents can be used to reverse all of the documents of a
reconciliation key. This may be used to reverse a payment run that was executed
by mistake.
Mass reversal of business partner, contract account, contract object items is used to
reverse all of the documents post against a particular master data object (I.e.
reverse all documents posted against BP Cummings). This program can reset
clearing and reverse documents in just one step.
Return lots are used to reverse payments that have been posted and subsequently
refused by a bank (I.e. account closed or check bounces). This topic will be
discussed in detail later in this course.
PSCD supports the concept of negative postings. A negative posting reduces the
transaction figures for the account posted to in the general ledger. It enables you to show
transaction figures for accounts after an incorrect posting and subsequent correction (for
example, invoice posting and reversal) as if neither the incorrect posting nor the
correction had taken place.

Standing requests are an efficient tool, to create PSCD documents on a periodic recurring
basis.
A standing request is a template, which contains all relevant data, to create PSCD
documents periodically.
You can create standing requests for acceptance requests and payment requests.
In the run data you enter the first and the last due date, or you define that there is no end
date.
Additionally you have to insert a frequency (e.g. monthly) and based on the frequency an
interval (02 stands for every two months).
So far, SAP supports the following frequencies:
Daily
Weekly
Monthly
Monthly, on last day
Annually
You can exclude or add special dates by the functionality ‚Special Date‘.

Standing Request – Changes: Versions
SAP AG 2008, Public Sector Collections and Disbursements / Specific Posting Processes / 10
You can change standing requests by creating a new version for a standing request.
The versions can differ by run data and/or accounting data regarding one standing
request.
The due date period in the run data of the different versions must not overlap. In case the
run data of two different versions is overlapping, one version has to be changed.

Using the transaction Generating Documents from Standing Requests, you can create
PSCD documents on regularly recurring dates.
You can do this by using the mass activity. You can enter a date until which documents
should be created from the standing requests. You can limit the standing requests that
should be included in the processing according to business partner, contract account or
contract. You can also select by standing request number for the processing.

You use general requests when you expect the same type of revenues or expenditures,
but their amounts are not yet fixed.
For example, you can enter general requests for the revenues using administrative and
usage charges or a general payment request for telephone charges.
The general request simplifies the administrative process because a payment can be
made without there being a concrete payment request in a particular case. You can also
use to represent the participation in debit memo transactions.
You can incorporate a workflow for the approval of general requests.

General Request - Payment
Payment Lot
In the case of incoming or outgoing payments using electronic account statement or cash
desk, the system recognizes that the payment is made due to a general request.
The payment is first posted as a payment on account as a payment without debits.
So that the system can recognize that the payment is due to a general request, it saves
the combination main transaction 0050 / sub transaction 0100 as soon as a payment can
be assigned to a general request.
The system determines the main and sub transaction that were actually saved in the
payment document from the IMG activity Assign External Transactions.
For the master data the system transfers the account assignments from the general
request in this process.
You can set whether the system should assign the general requests using the contract
object or the classification key for incoming and outgoing payments.

according to the Customizing settings.
You can list all relevant documents in order to check the funds consumption on general
requests.

SAP AG 2008, Public Sector Collections and Disbursements / Specific Posting Processes / 19
In Customizing you have to define a number range per request class and request
category.
Furthermore you have to configure a document type per request category, which can be
used as default value.
For general requests a new IMG activity has been added to Customizing of Contract
Accounting.
You can find this IMG activity under Define Specifications for Clearing Documents for
General Requests.
You can define specifications for clearing documents here.
If you want the system to clear the contract accounting documents automatically with the
payments, you have to select the relevant field in the IMG activity Define Basic Settings
for Document Creation.
As of release ERP 2005 you can define request categories in Customizing as you wish.
You can select which sign (plus/minus) and which document type the generated
documents should have for each request category and whether a document should be
generated for each request item.

When customizing default specifications for writing-off items, you define at what ‘check
level’ write-off rules are to apply; the possible levels are at document, business partner,
contract account. For example, if charge-off rules are defined to apply at check level
‘contract account’ then rules will be applied to each contract account individually.
Other customizing areas within the IMG for write-offs include defining allowable charge-off
reasons and automatic G/L account determination (definition of the revenue and expense
accounts to be posted to when executing charge-off function).
The above displayed defaults are set for posting areas 1052 and 1053 (mass processing)
that are relevant for write-offs. For mass processing the default clearing reason should be
‘14’.
As of release ERP 2005, you can also perform write-offs in external systems. You can
activate the function in posting area 0124. If you perform write-offs in an external system,
line items that are posted in PSCD via this external system are forwarded to the relevant
external system via the Outbound Interface for Business Partner Items. The SAP system
(PSCD) denotes the items to be written off with the clearing restriction T. This means that
these items cannot be cleared by other business transactions. The tax calculation takes
place in the external system. The data determined for the calculation of the write-off
document is posted in the SAP system (PSCD) again via the Bill Line Item Interface. The
pre-selected items that are to be written off are cleared and the clearing restriction T is
deleted.

SAP AG 2008, Public Sector Collections and Disbursements / Specific Posting Processes / 22
In posting area P030 you must define the derivation of CO account assignment data and
FM account assignments separately as of Release ERP 2005. The field “FM Account
Assignments from” has been introduced for this where you can define whether the
derivation should occur from the account determination or from the items to be written off.
In posting area P030 you can define that the CO account assignments from the items to
be written off are inherited. This setting replaces the derivation of CO account
assignments from the account determination of the item to be written off.
Furthermore you can define that the G/L account of the write-off document is derived with
event 5030 from the date of the open item and that the specification from posting area
0120 is overwritten. The standard function module defined with event 5030 has been
enhanced accordingly.

The Public Sector Write-Off History lists the individual documents which were written off
and entered in the write-off history using the function Write Off Items.
Data of the written off document, write-off document and the resubmission is displayed in
addition to the information from the write-off history.
If you have defined a separate write-off reason for waivers, you can use the write-off
history to generate a waiver directory.
