Use After Migration

In RE-FX, a contract can relate to more than one object. Therefore, the revenue that is posted with the contract is transferred to the object in a second posting. This second posting is needed so that the revenue can be shown in Controlling on the object from which it originated.
The logic used here is similar to that used for the general contract in Classic RE. Since there were no postings of this kind for rentals in Classic RE, you have to set up the flow types for the transfer posting. To identify the flow types needed, proceed as follows:

  • In a client containing RE-FX standard Customizing, choose transaction SM30, view V_TIVCDFLOWREL.
  • Look at the flow types that are assigned for relationship 30 in the Ref (reference flow type) column. For basic rent, the transaction types are, for example:
    1040 Basic rent transfer
    1041 Trsfr. basic rent receivable
    1042 Office basic rent trsfr credit
    1044 Office basic rent transfer own
    1064 Off.basic rent trsfr own f.u.p.
    1074 Off.b.rent trsfr own f.u.cred.

    You must create the first three flow types for each condition type that is used in lease-outs and is relevant for posting. You need the last three flow types, in addition, for all condition types that are used in own-use contracts. It is advisable to use numbering that is the same as, or similar to, that used in standard Customizing (as long as these keys do not conflict with already existing keys that were generated from Classic RE).
    The simplest method is to copy the six flow types listed above from standard Customizing using the client comparison, and then to use the copies as a template for all further flow types.

    The comparable flow types for advance payments for operating costs or advance payments for sales-based rent are:
    2040 AP oper.costs transfer
    2041 AP oper.costs trsfr receivable
    2042 AP oper.costs trsfr f.u.credit
    2044 AP oper.costs trsfr own use
    2064 AP oper.costs trsfr own f.u.p.
    2074 AP OC trsfr own f.u. credit
    Since object transfer also takes place for service charge settlement, you have to create additional flow types along the same lines as:
    2045 Neutraliz. Trsf AP OC Credit
    2046 Neutraliz. Trsf AP OC Recv.
    In RE-FX, credits from settlement are also posted using flow types. (In Classic RE, a dummy flow type was used for this instead.) Therefore, you also need a flow type for the customer transfer posting for each advance payment flow type:
    2007 SCS: Transfer Paid AP Op.Costs

    You may also want to use the posting of balances method. (In that case the settlement posts the difference between the proportional receivable and the advance payment to the customer, rather than posting the proportional receivable as a debit and the advance payment as a credit.) If you do choose posting of balances, you also need these flow types:
    2008 SCS: Transf.Unpaid AP Op.Costs
    2048 Transfer AP OC G/L Account
    This applies only to service charge settlement, not sales-based settlement. You need flow type 2008 only if you perform settlement using the actual principle (based on actual payments). Remember that the system does not support use of the actual principle for advance payments that were migrated from Classic RE.

    If you want to use the current occupancy principle (COCP), you also need flow types for the transfer postings for each advance payment flow type:
    2050 Trsf AP OC COCP Cust->G/L Acct
    2051 Trsf AP OC COCP Vac.->CustAcct
    2052 Trsf AP OC COCP OwnUse ->Cust
    2053 Trsf AP OC COCP Vac.->G/L Acct
    2054 Trsf AP OC COCP Own ->G/L Acct

    If there are vacancy advance payments for rental objects, then these are transferred during service charge settlement. In that case, you need the following reference flow type for each advance payment flow type:
    2011 SCS: Trsfr Vacancy AP OC

    You need the same flow types for flat rates for service charges as you do for basic rent.

    For rent reductions copy these flow types and use them as templates:
    1940 Rent Reduction Transfer
    1941 Incr. RentReduct. Recvbl Trsfr
    1942 Reduction RentReduction Trsfr
    1944 RentReduction Trsfr Own Use
    1964 Incr. RentReduct.Trsfr Own Use
    1974 Red. RentReduct.Trsfr Own Use

General Description of "Setting Up New Flow Types"

Use

In this section, you define flow types. This is a prerequisite for creating condition types and for account determination. Flow types classify flows in:

a) The cash flow

b) Accounting

With certain transactions, postings cannot be made using the flow type that was originally assigned (the flow type derived from the condition type). For such transactions, reference flow types must be assigned. You make these assignments in the following activity using a relationship key:

Assign Reference Flow Types

Requirements

Standard settings

Activities

Create unique keys for flows that are for posting and for statistical flows. For each flow record, define whether it is for a debit posting or a credit posting.

If you want an approval workflow to be triggered when changes are made to this flow, then set the Relevant for Approval indicator.
