In order Clear Vendor account along with Customer Account and vice versa  , Standard SAP has provided solution for it.

So, let’s start, how  this can we achieve in SAP Standard. Here I choose  same company code in which Supplier and  Customer  are same. The clearing between the customer and vendor can happen by following the below settings,let’s start to change in Vendor Master

In S4/HANA , open T-code – BP ( Business  Partner) . In  this T-Code , system has provided facility that here we can define role for the business Partner. Select BP Role as Vendor FI                 Role .

Vendor Master

Select Vendor : General Data  from General Data Tab, here you can assign Customer Code in Vendor data.

After this , you can choose Company Code Tab  and click Vendor : Payment Transactions Tab. Here , set indicator  ‘Clearing W.Customer’.

• Customer Master

Now , the same way will open Customer FI Role from BP and assign Vendor code in Customer Role.

  Now select Company Code Tab, and set indicator  “Clearing with Vendor “.

Okay…Now we have done with Master Changes. Now let’s Perform the Payment and Receipt Transaction to see the effect in Vendor Clearing – FBL1N and Customer Clearing – FBL5N as well.

Let’s first Create Vendor Invoice in T-code  FB60 .
