Use

In this activity, you can predefine the necessary parameters for the settlement run.
This makes parameter blocks available to users for selection when they start settlement. As a result, the user does not need to enter the parameters individually.

Requirements

Standard settings

Activities

Set the values for the individual indicators:

  • Active:
    Parameter blocks are offered for selection during settlement only if they were set to active. This enables you to leave parameter blocks in the system that you have tested but do not want to offer in the application. You can then activate them later if you need them.
    You have to set the Active indicator separately for each of the following: "normal" service charge settlement, COA settlement (for condominium owners in the COA company code) and tenant settlement (for tenants renting condominiums).
    If you need the current occupancy principle for COA settlement, but do not need it for tenant settlement, you can also set the indicator differently for each of them.
  • Standard:
    Set this indicator if you want this parameter block to be proposed as the default when you start settlement.
    For this setting there is also a separate indicator for "normal" service charge settlement, COA settlement, tenant settlement, and accrual/deferral.
  • Split Receivable If Tax Changes
    This indicator specifies that you want the receivable posting to be split based on time when the tax rate changes within the settlement period.
  • Post Balance:
    Set this indicator if you want to balance the receivable with the advance payment. This function is currently only available when the Leave Open APs (Planned Principle) indicator is set.
  • Leave Open APs (Planned Principle)
    Set this indicator if you do not want the settlement to automatically clear open advance payments (advance payments that were agreed on and posted, but not yet paid). This is advisable in certain cases (see long text).
  • Current Occupancy Principle:
    Austria only: Set this indicator to settle rental agreements and rental units with the current occupancy principle indicator in service charge settlement based on the current occupancy principle.
  • Print Separately:
    If you set this indicator, correspondence is not printed automatically as part of settlement. Instead, you must print it separately. We recommend that you set this indicator for the standard procedure so that correspondence is not printed automatically each time a complete settlement run is simulated.
  • Consider Vacancy Percentage
    This indicator must be set if you want to include a vacancy percentage rate (percentage at which the cost share of the vacant rental object can be transferred to the other tenants) that can be specified on the settlement unit.
    In most countries this is not allowed or is not usual.
  • Use Other Apport. Factor (Sim./Accr.)
    This indicator applies during simulation of service charge settlement or during accrual/deferral of service charges. If this indicator is set, then, for all settlement units that have an alternative apportionment factor (to be used if it is not possible to determine the measurement), the system uses this alternative apportionment factor. This is particularly relevant for settlement units that are normally apportioned based on consumption (alternatively based on residential/usable space). If this indicator is set, then the system does not base the apportionment on consumption but distributes instead immediately using the residential/usable space. The system ignores this indicator during an actual settlement.
  • Elimination of Internal Business Volume
    It is possible that a settlement unit could contain rental objects and contracts with different profit centers. If that is the case and you want to perform elimination of internal business volume, then set this indicator. The system then ensures that posting is always two-sided.
  • Distribute Remainder
    Small differences can arise when costs are distributed from the settlement unit to the rental objects. Here you specify if differences are distributed, and if so, how.
  • Surcharge Schema
    The surcharge schema specifies if the system calculates a surcharge on the settlement result, and, if so, how this surcharge is calculated. You can define the surcharge schema in the Define Calculation of Surcharges IMG activity.
  • Default Values for Data Medium Exchange for External Settlement
    You can make settings here that appear as defaults for settlement but can be overwritten. These settings define where files are imported from or exported to for data medium exchange, and the names of the files.


Restrictions related to whether individual parameters can be combined.

If you select the option "Charge Input Tax to Tenant", then the following options are not allowed to be selected:

  • "Post Balance"
  • "Split Receivable If Tax Changes"
  • "Consider Current Occupancy Principle"
