  Key Concepts: 
  Open item proxy is a feature of the FS-AM Account Management component of SAP. It allows users to manage open items in a single account, such as a customer or vendor account, by creating a proxy account. This proxy account is linked to the original account and can be used to manage open items without affecting the original account. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use open item proxy, users must first create a proxy account in the FS-AM Account Management component. This can be done by selecting the “Create Proxy Account” option from the menu. Once the proxy account is created, users can then link it to the original account by selecting the “Link Proxy Account” option from the menu. Once linked, users can then manage open items in the proxy account without affecting the original account. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using open item proxy, it is important to remember that any changes made to the proxy account will not affect the original account. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all open items are properly linked to the correct accounts before making any changes.
