Use

In this section, you create external distribution formulas that are based on internal distribution formulas.

Requirements

The following distribution formulas are provided in standard Customizing:

To ensure correct reporting for cost and revenue planning, you have to make sure that all costs and revenue on a contract that can be assigned to objects are actually posted to these objects.

If an object is directly assigned to a condition, then all costs and revenue can be posted directly to the object when there is a posting.

However, a direct transfer is not possible if:

  • No object assignment was made, so that the system is not able to recognize the object to be posted
  • The condition is linked to an object group, so that multiple objects could be affected by the transfer

In these cases, distribution formulas define how the object or objects to be posted are found, and how the costs or revenue are distributed proportionally to these objects.

The resulting amounts then appear in the object cash flow of the contract, and are posted during periodic posting for the contract.

For example, for customer lease-outs:
Partner-related cash flow:
Debit: Customer
Credit: Revenue (Contract)
Object cash flow:
Debit: Revenue Clearing (Contract)
Credit: Revenue (distribution object)
