Documentation
Definition
Depending on whether the billing was carried out in advance or retrospectively, this is either the start date or the end date for the settlement period of a deadline in the billing plan.
Use
This date is used if time-dependent prices are defined.
Example
Billing plan for the rental contract for a piece of equipment.
Billing is to take place a month in advance on the first of each month. The following pricing condition is defined for the contract:
Scale Quantity Price
As of 1 Month Rent for one piece of equipment per month 1000 DM
As of 12 Months Rent for one piece of equipment per month 1100 DM
The following billing values are defined on the basis of the settlement period and the pricing condition:
Settlement period
Settlement date from Settlement date to Billing date Billing value
01.06.95 30.06.95 01.06.95 1000
01.07.95 31.07.95 01.07.95 1000
01.08.95 31.08.95 01.08.95 1000
01.06.96 30.06.96 01.06.95 1100
Since billing is to be carried out in advance, the settlement date is proposed as the billing date.
Note
In the example, the settlement date is from the start date of the settlement period, becuase billing is to be carried out in advance (the 'in advance' indicator is marked in the billing plan). If billing is to be carried out retrospectivey (the indicator is not set), the settlement date is from the end date of the settlement period.

Definition
Depending on whether billing is to be carried out in advance or retrospectively, this is either the start date or the end date for the settlement period of a date in the billing plan.
Use
This date is used if time-dependent prices are defined.
Example
Billing plan for a rental contract for a device.
The billing plan is to be created every month in advance at the start of each month. The following pricing condition is defined for the contract:
Scales Quantity Price
From 1 month Rent for 1 device per month 1000 USD
From 12 months Rent for 1 device per month 1100 USD
The following billing values are determined on the basis of the settlement period and the pricing condition:
Settlement period
Settlement date from Settelement date to Billing date Billing value
06.01.95 06.30.95 06.01.95 1000
07.01.95 07.31.95 07.01.95 1000
08.01.95 08.31.95 08.01.95 1000
06.01.96 06.30.96 06.01.95 1100
Because billing is to be carried out in advance, the 'settlement date from' is proposed as the billing date.
Note
In the example, the 'settlement date from' is the start date of the settlement period, because billing in advance is to be carred out (i.e. the 'In advance' indicator is set in the billing plan). If retrospective billing is to be carried out (i.e. the indicator is not set), then the 'settlement date from' is the end date of the settlement period.

06.01.96 06.30.96 06.01.95 980
Because invoicing is to be carried out in advance, the 'settlement date from' is proposed as the billing date.
Note
