The account assignment reference can be entered by the user in the application or determined automatically by the system according to certain criteria. In this step you define the criteria for automatic account determination, in other words, you set up the structure that controls how the system determines the account assignment reference.
Requirements
Before you can set up automatic account determination, you must have defined the corresponding account assignment references.
Initial Screen - Determine Account Assignment Reference
In the initial screen you specify the company code and product category for which you want to define automatic account determination. If you do not enter a product category, the system branches to the transaction for defining account determination for all product categories within the contract type.
To display an overview of all the product categories in the current application choose Overview.
Defining the Combination of Characteristics
To branch to the screen where you define the combination of characteristics, choose 'Enter' if you are in the initial screen, or double-click on the required product category if you are in the overview screen.
On the right hand side of the screen, the system lists all the characteristics you can use to determine the account assignment reference automatically. These are characteristics from business partner management or the position data. You can display the corresponding technical names of the table fields (table, field name) by paging across to the right. To copy characteristics from the "Selectable characteristics" field to the "Selected characteristics" field, select the required characteristics and choose Edit -> Copy.
Defining the Value Groups per Characteristic
On the detail screen Maintain Characteristic, you define the value groups for the characteristic you have selected. In a value group you can enter one or several characteristic values.
Make sure you enter a description of each value group in the comment field, as this text is shown when you assign the value groups to account assignment references later on.
To create a new value group, you add a new group or overwrite an existing group. When you overwrite an existing group, the comment is copied to the new group and the original group is kept.
Defining the Values for a Value Group
On the detail screen Maintain Value Group you enter all the values in a value group. The system also accepts universal characters ('*', '+'), which are interpreted as follows:
- 23* - All values that begin with 23 are recognized as valid
- 5+7 - All (three-digit) values with 5 as the first digit and 7 as
the third digit (such as 517) are recognized as valid.
Note: At present, the system does not provide possible entries or check the validity of the values you enter.
To create a new value, insert a new value or overwrite an existing value. When you overwrite an existing value, the comment is copied to the new value and the original value is kept.
Defining the Account Assignment Reference Allocation
The Maintain Account Assignment Reference Allocation screen contains a column for the account assignment reference and, for each characteristic you have selected, columns for the value group and a comment. The system determines the account assignment reference via the combination of value groups you assign to the individual characteristics.
Automatic Determination of the Account Assignment Reference
If the account assignment reference is determined automatically, the system uses the relevant characteristic values to determine the value groups for each characteristic. It then searches for a line in the account assignment reference allocation in which the value groups for each characteristic match the value groups it has determined. If it finds a corresponding line, the system chooses the account assignment reference entered in that line.
You can define the values for determining the account assignment reference either per product category (for instance, fixed-term deposit) or for all product categories at contract type level.
The account assignment reference is determined in two steps:
- If an automatic account assignment reference has been defined at product category level, the system searches at this level first.
- If no automatic account assignment reference has been defined at product category level, the system continues the search at contract type level.
Activities
- Define whether the entries should apply for a certain product category or for a contract type in general.
- Enter the relevant company code and the required product category. To call up an overview of the existing product types in the corresponding application, choose Overview.
- If you do not enter a product type, your entries apply for the contract type.
- On the next screen, select the characteristics you require and copy them to the left-hand side by choosing Edit -> Copy.
- Define the value groups for the characteristics you have selected, and enter the values per value group.
The value group must be a numeric value. However, you can enter a name in the comment field. - Assign the characteristics to an account assignment reference via the corresponding value groups.
- Save your entries.
