How to identify cleared items of a payment document?
It happens regularly that SAP users know a payment document and they would like to know what invoices and/or credit notes are cleared (paid) by that payment document. Or more generally there is often a need to identify what documents are cleared by a specific clearing document (which can be a payment document or any another type of document).
SAP techies often start searching for line items in the SAP database on the clearing document number field. This is a workable solution but not suitable for end users. End users should use the payment usage functionality which is directly available in the display document transaction (FB03 or other document display transaction) of clearing documents.
This function triggers the display of a list of the line items cleared by the current clearing document.
