Use

You can use this Business Add-In (BAdI) to apply customer-specific criteria in determining the posting date on which individual payment proposal items were transferred from the Claims Management system (FS-CM) to the Collections & Disbursements system (FS-CD) as a payment to be executed.

FS-CD takes the posting date to derive the posting date in the document header. This date is used for determining the posting period.

Requirements

In IMG activity FS-CD:Define Contract Account Creation Variant & Insurance Object for Claim, in the DetPstDte field (Determine Posting Date), you have selected the entry Customer-Specific Procedure (BAdI ICL_POSTDATE_FILL).
