Use
In this IMG activity, you specify the accounts in Financial Accounting to which one-time postings are posted (account determination).
The functions for one-time postings allow a wide range of possible uses. Therefore, the system does not greatly restrict you in making settings for assigning accounts in Financial Accounting to one-time postings. Depending on how you use one-time postings to solve certain accounting problems, it may be necessary to make the assignment of accounts dependent on different types of information.
In this IMG activity, you first create a strategy that defines the information that your account determination is based on.
Once you have specified this strategy, you define the account determination. You specify which account should be used for which combinations of relevant information.
Requirements
You have to have specified which values and/or information are transferred from the contract data and how they are transferred. For more information, refer to: Specify Transfer of Values in Basis Structure Fields for Account Determ..
Example
Strategy: You specify that you want to use different accounts depending on the accounting principle, the posting rule and the chart of account.
Definition of account assignment: For accounting principle 10 and posting rule 0001, you assign account 470000; whereas for accounting principle 20 and the same posting rule 0001, you assign account 815000.
Further notes
Since standard settings are not useful in the case of one-time postings, SAP supplies only a limited number of fields for the strategy. You can increase this number as needed without having to make program modifications.
