In this step, you define rules for determining the date.

Each such rule has a base date (e.g. the current day's date, validity start date), to which a predefined time period is added.

The rules for date determination can be defined using the following data:

  • The possible base date is predefined by a fixed range of values (e.g. current day's date, validity start date) which cannot be changed.

  • The time period can be defined in any way by specifying a number with an associated unit of time.

  • If you use a calendar ID to define a rule, the next possible future workday in the calendar is determined, starting from the base date.
    If you use a calendar ID, you may NOT specify a time period.

Example

A rule for date determination comprises the following:

  • the current day's date (as base date)
  • the period 6, and
  • the time unit "month"

Starting from the current date (15 June 1997), the date determined by the system is 15 December 1997.

Standard settings

Recommendation

Activities

  1. Enter an alphanumeric key (max. two characters long) plus a descriptive text for each rule. The latter can briefly describe the type of date determination, for example.
  2. Define the base date.
  3. Specify either a period with a unit of time or a calendar ID.

Further notes

To define a rule, you must specify at least a base date.
