Use

In this IMG activity, you define the RBD flow types with the following properties.

  • Automatic Posting Indicator: Here you specify whether a flow type may be posted by means of an update report.
  • Manual Flow Type Indicator: Here you specify whether the flow type may be used to created manual planned records.
    • Note: You can either set the indicator for automatic posting or the indicator for the manual flow type.
  • Debit / Credit Indicator: Here you specify whether the flow type is a debit or a credit flow type.
  • Flow Category: You assign the flow type to one of the flow categories Appropriation, Clearing, Usage, Reset, Direct Write-Off or Reclassification.
  • Flow Type Grouping: You assign the flow type to one of the flow type groups Interest, Charges and Capital.
  • Value adjustment procedure: The RBD component has implemented several value adjustment procedures, which are assigned here: IVA, FVA, FIVA (individual value adjustment, flat-rate value adjustment with risk indicator, and flat-rate value adjustment according to Basel II)
    • Note: Only one value adjustment procedures can be assigned per flow type.
  • Offsetting Flow Type Same Fiscal Year: Here you assign the RBD flow type that must be used if a value adjustment created in the current fiscal year is cleared in the same fiscal year.
  • Offsetting Flow Type Previous Year: Here you assign the RBD flow type that must be used if a value adjustment formed in a previous fiscal year is cleared in the current fiscal year.
  • Flow Type Fiscal Year Change: Here you assign the RBD flow type that must be used when a planned record created in a previous fiscal year is to be posted in the current fiscal year.
  • Reclassification Flow Type: Here you assign the RBD flow type that must be used if flat-rate value adjustments need to be reclassified as specific value adjustments, IVAs.
  • Note Number: In special business operations in the source system the administrator should receive a note in the RBD account screen. Notes are planned for the following business operations:
    • Direct write-off
    • Usage
    • Balance sheet transfer
    • Currency change
    • Reclassification
    • Change of RBD Class (Change of Account Assignment Reference)

The 'Note Number' field is only defined for RBD flow types that are connected to one of the business operations listed above.

The "Value Adjustment Position" field defines the assignment of the individual RBD flows to the relevant balances in value adjustment processing (allocation, previous year and current year).

In a second step you define the general ledger account determination for each RBD flow type.

The FI accounts are to display the following characteristics:

  • Account group: General G/L account
  • Account Management in Company Code: Line Items Display
  • Control Document Entry in Company Code: Can only be posted to automatically

Note:

Cost center information cannot be entered for the FI accounts relevant for RBD.

Example

You want to create a flow type for the appropriation of Interest FIVA in the current year. This flow type is to be posted automatically by reports but not by a manual planned record. The flow type is a credit flow type to be allocated to the Interest Flow Type group with the FIVA procedure. You assign the following flow types:

  • Offsetting flow type current fiscal year: Reset Appropriation FIVA Interest
  • Offsetting flow type previous year: Clear Appropriation FIVA Interest Previous Year
  • Flow type fiscal year change. Appropriation FIVA Interest Previous Year
  • Flow type reclassification. Reclassification FIVA Interest - Outflow FIVA
