Use

In this activity, you define adjustment rules for each adjustment method that you would like to use.

Requirements

Standard settings

The following adjustment rules are provided by SAP in the standard system and are fixed:

  • Free
  • Index
  • Service charge settlement
  • Representative list of rents
  • Comparative group of apartments
  • Adjustment measure/modernization

Together with specific contract or rental data, as well as data entered in the adjustment process (such as the specification of percentage or absolute adjustment), the adjustment rules define which algorithm is used to calculate the adjustment amount.

Activities

  1. Create at least one rule for each adjustment method.
  2. Give the rule a name that allows it to be easily identified.
  3. If you want to create a rule consisting of several rules, set the Combined Rule indicator. Any rule that is not identified as a combined rule can be used as a subrule. If you want to create a rule that should be used exclusively as part of a combined rule, set the Part of Comb.Rule indicator. You then have to assign it to the combined rule in the Combined Adjustment Rules activity.
  4. Enter the required parameters for each rule. For more information, refer to the information contained in the F1 Help for each field.
  5. For each parameter, define how it appears on the on the contract or rental object. The options are:
    • Hidden
    • Displayed only
    • Can be modified
    • Required entry

Recommendation:

To simplify processing, create rules with completed parameters for the most important and most frequently used adjustment rules. The rules you create should allow only a few or no individual settings to be made on the contract or rental agreement. In the case of more complicated or seldom used processes, you should create some rules with parameters that can then be specified on the contract or rental object.

For some methods (such as, INDX or TASK) there are method-independent parameters in addition to the method-dependent parameters. You can set these parameters in the Implementation Guide in the section for the given method.

Customizing Relationship - Contract/Rental Object

If no parameters are changed in the contract/rental object, then the system uses the rule parameters from Customizing for the adjustment process. Then changes to the rule parameters in Customizing apply to all contracts/rental objects that use this rule.

However, you can sever the relationship to Customizing by choosing @1G@ with quick info Unlink from Customizing. The prerequisite for this is that the adjustment rule that has Modifiable in Contract/Rental Object entry status.

Once you unlink Customizing, the modifiable fields are then ready for input, and you can make your own modifications to the adjustment rule. Any changes you make the rule parameters in Customizing then nolonger affect these contracts/rental objects. When you save an object that has an adjustment rule you modified yourself, an icon (@1H@ with quick info Modified), appears next to the changed fields. You can choose this icon to compare the rule parameters from Customizing with the modified value of the field.

You can establish the relationship with Customizing again by choosing @1H@ with quick info Link to Customizing. The modifiable fields are then no longer available for input, and the system fills them again with the rule parameters from Customizing.
