Use

In this IMG activity you define the accrual types that you require to calculate and post CRM accruals. The accrual type is a characteristic, which divides accrual items into costs, revenues and receivables. Accrual types control the way in which deferrals are calculated and posted.

If you want to perform all postings provided for by the system for an accrual type, the system makes the following postings:

  • Opening entry

    With an opening entry, the entire amount to be accrued is posted as the value. Account determination is normally set in such a way that the entire amount to be accrued is posted to an accruals account.

  • Periodic postings

    When periodic accrual is started, the accrual amount that is due at the key date is calculated and posted. Account determination is normally set in such a way that the posting is made from the accruals account to a profit and loss account.

  • Closing entry

    A closing entry is only made if the accrual object has been deactivated, even if all accruals have not yet been posted. The amount that has not yet been accrued at the time of deactivation is posted as a deactivation amount.

Activities

To create a new accrual type, proceed as follows:

  1. Choose New Entries.
  2. Enter an ID code for your accrual type in the Accrual Type field, such as COSTS for costs.
  3. Select "Periodical Only" in the Accrual Posting field. This means that the system only performs periodical postings for the revenue postings. No opening and closing postings are made.
    Choose "All" in the Accrual Posting field, if you want to use opening and closing postings in addition to periodic postings.
  4. Enter a more detailed description of your accrual type in the Description field.
  5. Save your accrual type.
