In this step, you define the posting profiles required for the interest calculation. In the posting profile, you configure accounts determination for each business transaction you need for the interest calculation.
This step is necessary if interest is to be recorded correctly in Controlling (CO).
Further notes
For technical reasons, the interest must first be recorded in the profit and loss accounts in FI. As the posting profile leads to both a debit posting and a credit postings, the resulting interest balance in FI is zero.
- Change the currency in the table to Euro so that you continue to obtain interest-relevant values after switching to the euro.
This changeover is not necessary if you have already chosen a currency-independent setting by enter * in the relevant field.
Activities
You need two business transactions for the interest calculation - the interest earned posting and interest paid posting. You can maintain accounting determination so that it differs in the following characteristics for each business transaction:
- Company code
- Business area
- Interest indicator
Maintain at least one posting profile for the interest earned posting (business transaction 1000) and at least one for the interest paid posting (business transaction 2000). Proceed as follows:
- Choose "Edit -> Create" and create the posting profiles you require.
If you do not want the account determinations to vary in respect of the characteristics mentioned above, enter the masking character "+".
Masking Example
Charact. General acct detmn Specific acct detmn
Business transaction 1000 1000
Company code 0001 0001
Interest indicator + 01
Business area + +
- Choose Symbols to create the account symbols for business transactions of the same type.
The account symbols are used to group similar business transactions (such as interest earned postings). The account symbols assign the transactions to a G/L account. This makes account determination flexible in cases where the postings to revenue and expenditure accounts are different.
- Choose Accounts.
- In the dialog screen, enter the chart of accounts to which the account determination is to apply, then choose "Continue".
This brings up the screen "Maintain Account Determination: Accounts".
- Assign a G/L account to each account symbol.
You can make this assignment currency-dependent.
- Choose "Profile" to proceed to the "Posting Profile" view. Assign the account symbols to the debit and credit accounts.
- Use the "Goto" menu to choose the document type in which the interest posting is made.
- Check the account determination by choosing Goto -> Simulation.
Further notes
Account determinations differentiated by company code, business area, or interest indicator take precedence over account determinations which are not differentiated.
You must not define any cost elements for the G/L accounts to which interest earned is posted. If you do, the system balances the interest postings off to zero.
If you are using Project Cash Management, a commitment item with a financial transaction other than 30 must be defined for the G/L accounts specified in the account symbol, otherwise the interest would be recorded in Project Cash Management.
Examples
You have maintained the following posting profile:
Business transaction: 2000 Interest indicator: +
Company code: + Business area: +
Debit posting 1 Interest paid
Credit posting 2 Correction: interest paid
The following G/L accounts are assigned to the account symbol:
Account symbol G/L account
1 483000
2 222000
The system records the interest paid unter G/L account 483000 and the correction under G/L account 222000. This ensures that the system shows no interest paid in FI.
For the interest paid to be recorded in CO, you must maintain cost element 483000.
You must not maintain a cost element for G/L account 222000. Otherwise, the interest earned balance in CO is also zeroed out.
