SAP Note 374632 - FB01: company code clearing items despite balance 0

Component : Posting/Clearing -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/374632 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
When posting cross-company code documents via Transaction FB01, zero-balance items in each company code create company code clearing items if specific conditions are met. These conditions include using a 0% tax rate in the second company code with tax codes allowed on the clearing account in the leading company code. The program's design causes automatic creation of clearing entries, seen in accounts specified in Transaction OBYA, to accommodate tax calculations across company codes. Removal of the tax code from the clearing account stops the described response but is not recommended due to potential error FS217.
