Summary :
This SAP Note provides guidance on properly configuring a zero balance clearing account in New General Ledger Accounting, particularly concerning document splitting. It specifies the account should be set to "Post automatically only" and highlights that it must not be manually posted to by HCM (Human Capital Management). The account is to be updated solely in the new General Ledger view, avoiding any entry in traditional document entry views like BSEG, to ensure there are no discrepancies during the reconciliation process. The note advises against enabling "Line item display" and managing the account with "Only balances in local currency" to avoid influence from foreign currency valuation. Additional customization settings are discussed to effectively manage the account when used by HCM.
