Clearing Variant for Automatic Clearing

Hi Friends,

Is it possible to populate a clearing type at the document number level.

Business requirement in the background is to have seperate Clearing variants for each Business Process.

for example:- Payment Lot for Paypal which has a document type IP in FP05. This document type IP will be used in SPRO under

Cleairng Control->Incoming Payment Specifications->Program enhancements where the Clearing Category is populated.

Based on the Cleairng Category an Alternative Clearing Variant would be assigned.

So while posting the payment lot from paypal the corresponding Cleairng Variant gets triggered. This can be implemented for Incoming Payments. Similar is it possible to restrict the clearing Category at the Document level. So the same Variant can be used for Incoming payments and for Automatic clearing of Paypal documents (which have payment method P).

I am aware that Cleairng Category can be populated at Contract Account level. We are working with Retail Customers, So a Person can have multiple Orders and has the possibility to pay with different payment methods.So this will not help me to solve the same. So for me the requirement is to have different clearing based on the Order.

Thanks in advance!
