Use

Normally, the advance payments are determined on the basis of the measurement amount resulting from settlement for a lease-out with reference to a rental object.

However, this sometimes results in inaccurate advance payments if the settlement factor is usage-based (or also on the number of people in the apartment) and the tenant moved into the object only shortly before the end of the settlement period. In this case, the tenant may have used significantly more or less than average during this short time, and extrapolating the consumption to the entire settlement period would lead to disproportionately high or low advance payments.

For this reason, for individual service charge keys you can specify a certain length of participation in settlement ("number of months"). For the period up to this amount of time, the the advance payment adjustment for these service charge keys is determined based on the measurement type entered here, instead of the measurement type of the SU.

For service charge keys for which the consumption varies according to the season, a value for the "regional location heating value days" can be defined. This key is based on the heating days table which specifies how the months are weighted.
The "regional location heating value days" is independent of the number of months and the measurement type. It is always applied when the tenant occupied the rental object during only part of the settlement period.
It is recommended that you create a heating days table to adjust the usage-dependent service charges that vary with the season, even if you don't want to use a heating days table for settlement.

Example

For the service charge keys "1200 Water" and "5100 Heating" you want to use the method described above for tenants who occupied the apartment for a maximum of 3 months of the old settlement period. You are using heating days table HEAT.

The following entries were made:
1200 Water A200 residential/usable space 3 HEAT
5100 Heating A200 residential/usable space 3

The tenant of RO 1 occupied the object in the last three months of the settlement period 1/1/2002 - 12/31/2002. A total cost of 2000 euros was incurred for the settlement unit "water," and the total area of the SU is 1000 m². The heating settlement unit contains the same objects. The cost incurred here is 4000 euros. The residential/usable space of RO 1 is 100 m².

The yearly advance payment for water is calculated independently of the actual costs on the rental object as follows:
2000 euros / 1000 m² * 100 m² = 200 euros

For heating, the heating day table "HEAT" is used. A total value of 25% was entered for the time period 10/1/02 to 12/31/02. The total heating oil consumed is 10,000 liters. The interim meter reading shows that 200 liters of this were attributed to rental object 1 in the last three months of the settlement period. The yearly advance payment is calculated as follows:
(4000 euros / 10000 l ) * (200 l / 0.25) = 0.4 euros/liter * 800 liters = 320 euros
