the above said definitions of open items are fine..its an item yet to be cleared( or say item not balanced yet meaning item not paid yet)

you can generate a list of open items from the information systems menu option:

  • General Ledger: Information system ? General ledger reports ? Line items ? General ledger line items ? G/L line items, list for printing.
  • Accounts Receivable: Information system ? Reports for accounts receivable ? Customer items ? List of customer open items for printing.
  • Accounts Payable: Information system ? Reports for accounts payable ? Vendor items ? List of vendor open items for printing.

Open items are the items that are not yet to be cleared.   And These are the items which are used to clear other line items in the same account. Items must be balance out to zero before they can be cleared. The account balance is always equal to the sum of the open items.


Example

Outgoing invoice without incoming payment


Here Leaving content frame outgoing invoice is an open item and it will  be cleared when the incoming payment has been recieved for that particular invoice.


We will find open items in SAP by using Open item Management. Open item management allows you to display the open and cleared items and amounts in an account..

3. And then select open itmes Radio item to view open items.

To view open items in Accounts Payable
