In this step, you can assign a corresponding offsetting flow type (reference flow type) to a flow type. You make this assignment for each company code within specific relationship categories. Relationship categories describe the link between two flow types, such as 'deferral'. Since a flow normally changes an accounting item and the flow type affects account determination, the offsetting flow you assign here influences the accounts to which postings are made in the various applications.

Example

The original flow is an interest debit position, and you want to define the offsetting flow for deferral. This would be used, for example, if the due date of the interest debit position is at the beginning of the interest period, and you carry out an accrual/deferral run during the interest period. The system determines the accounts relevant for the deferral posting via the flow type you have defined as the offsetting flow type for the interest debit position in the relationship category 'deferral'.

The following entries are necessary for this example:

(You can define your own flow type names. The names used here may differ from the names defined in your system.)

  • Relationship category: 005 (deferral)
  • Flow type: 0110 (interest debit position)
  • Offsetting flow type: 8304 (deferral: revenue to deferred income)
  • The absolute amount and percentage amount (only relevant for the Loans application) are not fixed in this case and so you should leave these fields blank.

Requirements

In the step Define Flow Types, you must already have correctly created all the flow types and offsetting flow types which you use here.
You have to maintain account determination for the corresponding offsetting flow types.

Activities

To assign offsetting flow types:

  1. Enter the company code and the relationship category for which you want to define the flows.
    Example: Company code 0001 and relationship category 005 for deferrals.
  2. Choose New entries.
  3. For each flow/offsetting flow:
    1. Enter a flow type (4-character key) in the FTyp field, for instance, the flow type for interest debit position.
    2. Enter the corresponding offsetting flow in the RFlT field, for instance, the flow type for interest deferral.
    3. Where applicable, enter the absolute amount to be posted in the Absolute amnt field. Leave the field blank, if no amount is fixed.
      This setting is only relevant to the loans application.
    4. Where applicable, enter the percentage of the amount in the outgoing posting to be posted in the Perc.amnt field. Leave the field blank, if no percentage is fixed.
      This setting is only relevant to the loans application.
  4. Save your entries.
