Cause
Manual Journal Entry Voucher (MJEV) ABC has the following characteristics.
Journal Entry Type: | 00085 - Manual Entry for Accounts Receivable |
Business Transaction Type: | 628 - Manual Write-Up/Write-Down Accounts Rec |
Cr: | 1,000.00 EUR |
This entry does affect the Accounts Receivable Balance and will show in related AR Reports as 'Accounts Receivable - Line Items'.
This, however, does not present a reconcilable item.
The purpose of such a MJEV is the adjustment of AR/AP balances for a particular key date.
For AR/AP only actual documents can be cleared (invoices, credit memos, payments, other receivable/payables).
Resolution
In order to clear invoice XYZ over 1,000.00 EUR in the absence of suitable documents - you would have to create a document of type 'Other Payable' in the Customer Account Monitor.
- Press New Charge/Credit.
- In field Charge/Credit select '2 - Customer Credit'.
- Select a Posting Date relating to an open period.
- Under G/L Account select the G/L Account which will be debited.
- After posting Other Payables DEF is created and shows as reconcilable document in the Customer Account Monitor.
