Definition

The Flexible Periods indicator determines whether the posting period should start from the valid-from date of the condition header. However there is no condition header in the general contract.

Procedure

The condition header is determined as follows:

The date is determined from the valid-from date of the condition item of the condition type. The first occurrence is determined on the basis of the date of the first posting.

Prerequisite: The Flexible Periods indicator is set throughout.

@AH@ The condition item should not have been terminated at any time by setting the valid-to date, and the one-off conditionsindicator should not be set.

Use

If the indicator is set, the posting period starts on the date of the condition header.

Example

Date of 1st debit position:            10/01/1999

Valid-from date condition header:            10/01/1999

Freq.month:            12

Amount/month:            1

Condition item from 10/01/1999:            1,000 euros

Contract end:            12/31/2002

The cash flow generates the following flows:
