In this activity, you define the rounding unit and rules for currencies in which postings are made in a multiple of the smallest unit of currency instead of the single smallest unit. Your definition is used if a cash discount is to be posted by the payment program or receivables posted during invoicing or posting of charges or interest.
This ensures that the amounts that result take into consideration the currency unit specified, provided it is also considered when amounts are entered manually. The payment program analyzes these specifications for determining the cash discount and rounds the amount according to your entries.
Example
In Switzerland, five centimes are the smallest unit of currency for payment transactions. You would then enter 5 for Swiss company codes and Swiss francs. The cash discount is rounded to this unit of currency. Amounts entered manually in the decimal places must be divisible by five in order to guarantee total amounts for which the unit of currency specified in the system is taken into consideration.
Activities
Enter the unit of currency to which the cash discount is to be rounded for the relevant company codes and currency keys.
Define the accounts to which the rounding differences are to be posted (see IMG structure: Contract A/R+A/P -> Basic Functions -> Postings and Documents -> Document -> Account Assignment Definition for Automatic Postings -> Automatic G/L Account Determination -> Define Accounts for Rounding Differences).
