Use

In this IMG activity, you define the accrual types that you require.

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.

Requirements

Standard settings

Activities

  1. Choose New Entries.
  2. In the AccrualType field, enter a text for your accrual type, such as COSTS.
  3. You can create a derived accrual type. To do this, set the derived flag.

    By setting this flag, you specify that this accrual type is to be calculated from other accrual types, for example as the difference between or sum of these other accrual types. You then define the calculation rule that defines how this accrual type is to be calculated from other accrual types. You do this in Customizing, under Derived Accrual Types.

  4. Specify which postings you want to be made for this accrual type:
    • None
      • For this accrual type, the amounts to be accrued are calculated but no corresponding postings are made.
    • All
      • An opening entry, the periodic posting and a closing entry are all posted.
    • Periodic only
      • Only periodic postings are made. No opening or closing entries are posted.
    • Opening entry only
      • Only the opening entry is posted.
  5. In the Description field, enter a more detailed description for your accrual type.
  6. Save your accrual type.
