When clearing supplier payments, some companies use F-51 and some companies use F-53. What is the difference between the two? In fact, the main functions of the two are the same.

From the interface, it can be found that F-53 defaults to pay by bank (cash) account, and cannot pay bills ( bills payable is often managed in detail by supplier ). In addition, F-53 does not need to enter the accounting code, and the system defaults the bank account accounting code to 50. In the case of F-51 clearing (below), you need to manually enter the accounting code, you can enter the general ledger account for accounting, or you can enter the supplier's special general ledger.

Therefore, F-51 includes the functions of F-53. The main differences between the two are: 1) whether to enter the accounting code; 2) whether the payment subject is limited to the fund account. In a large group enterprise, the financial division of labor is detailed, and the job responsibilities are clear, and only the authority of F-53 can be assigned to the capital position. In small and medium-sized enterprises, due to the limitation of financial personnel, the job responsibilities are relatively large, and F-51 can be allocated.
