Self-Defined Clearing Procedures in SAP FICO

In addition to the incoming and outgoing payment functions, the system offers a general clearing function that you can use in posting with clearing. You can use it to clear any type of transaction. Once you access the function, you can choose the transaction you want to process as shown in the illustration below.

You can define your own clearing procedures for this general function to make it easier for users to post and clear items. Your accounting clerks can then use the procedure that best suits the business transaction they are processing.
