MIRO for freight: freight clearing account not getting debited

[Former Member]

All SAP Gurus,

We are doing MIRO for planned delivery cost (freight) and facing some problem in account determination.

Actually the ideal cycle goes like this:

The stock account is debited with the planned delivery costs at goods receipt and the system makes the offsetting posting to a freight clearing account. This posting is then cleared by an offsetting entry to the vendor account at invoice receipt.

In our case accounting entries are going correct at the time of GR.

But at the time of MIRO insted of freight clearing account, stock account is again getting debited.

Where may be the problem?

Please help.

Cr: freight Clearing account

Posting key:

Dr: 40

Cr: 50

And we are facing the problem stated above for all condition types of planned delivery costs.

Where the settings may be wrong?

Hi

Check what are the debit and credit accounts for Freight transaction key in OBYC (check corresponding account key for freight condition in pricing procedure). If you maintain them correctly (generally we only maintain one GL account without specifying debit/credit in OBYC), then entry should be GR/IR freight clearing account debit at time of MIRO.

Check the accounting entry in MIRO - the posting keys you are seeing (when you scroll to right hand side in accounting document you can see transaction).

Thanks
