You define the control parameters for the release procedure in this section. These settings are only relevant if you have activated the release procedure. The field 'release object' must contain the value ORDER for each entry.

The system determines the release status of a transaction after it has been created or changed depending on the following:

  • company code
  • product type
  • threshold value
  • settlement currency of transaction.

The field 'PARAM2' is not relevant for securities management.

The first number of the release status corresponds to the number of employees who have to release the transaction before posting can take place. The second number corresponds the the number of employees who have already released the transaction. The initial status '22' means therefore, that the transaction has to be released by two employees before posting and that no release has been made so far. After one employee has released the transaction, the transaction has status '21', and after the second employee has made the release, the status changes to '20'. The transaction cannot be posted until the second digit is '0'.

The system goes through various stages to determine the initial release status:

  • It searches for all Customizing entries where company code, product type and settlement currency match those of the transaction.
  • If no entries are found, the system searches for all entries where company code and product type match the transaction data and the currency field is blank.
  • If no entries are found, the system searches for all entries where the company code matches the company code of the transaction, and the product type and the currency are blank.
  • If no entries are found, the system searches for all entries where company code, product type and the currency are blank.
  • If no entries are found, the transaction does not have to be released before posting.
  • If the system does find entries, it determines the entry with the lowest threshold value. The following applies to the threshold value: Settlement amount of transaction in local currency >= threshold value.

A maximum of one entry is found using this method. If the 'Active' field of this entry is flagged, the initial status of the transaction is equal to the release status defined for this entry. Otherwise, the transaction does not have to be released.

Example

  • Release object: ORDER
  • Company code: 0001
  • Product type: 01A
  • Threshold value:
  • Currency:
  • Release status: 22
  • Active: x

If only this entry exists, it means that transactions in company code 0001 with securities of product type 01A have to be released twice before settlement. All other transactions do not require to be released.
