Symptom
- The "Provisions for Doubtful Receivables" Job does not retrieve any Data.
- The Journal Entry AAA has been moved to the Doubtful Receivables Account and should have been processed by the Run (where AAA is the Journal Entry ID).
- The Results of the "Provisions for Doubtful Receivables" Job display "List does not contain any Data".
Environment
SAP S4 Hana Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the App "Schedule General Ledger Jobs".
- Set the appropriate Date range from-to: last BBB days inclusive (where BBB days are the Days since Job creation).
- Press "Go".
- Open "Provisions for Doubtful Receivables" Job from MM/DD/YYYY (where MM/DD/YYYY is the Date the Job has been created).
- Open the Results.
Observe that the List does not contain any Data.
Cause
- The Journal Entry AAA is associated with a different Customer Account than the original Customer Account for which the Job "Provisions for Doubtful Receivables" was executed on MM/DD/YYYY.
- The Journal Entry AAA is categorized as a special G/L debit and a guarantee made, which is considered a special Document.
- The Journal Entry AAA also has a clearing Journal Entry, indicating that the Amount has already been received. As a result, the Document ID cannot be included in the Doubtful Receivable Run.
Resolution
- Verify the Journal Entry details to ensure that the correct Customer Account is selected for the "Provisions for Doubtful Receivables" Job.
- Confirm that the Journal Entry does not have a clearing Journal Entry, as cleared Amounts cannot be processed in the Doubtful Receivable Run.
