Documentation

Definition

The date under which the shipment cost item is entered in financial accounting or cost accounting.

The settlement date is used in tax determination.

Use

When calculating a shipment cost item, the system determines the settlement date automatically. If you create a shipment cost document online using transaction VI01, you can override automatic determination of the settlement date and specify it for all items in this shipment cost document.

Procedure

In Customizing, you can define the determination rules and assign them to the item categories.

If you change the settlement date of an item later on when processing the document, the system carries out tax determination for this item again.

Note

The posting date is used as the basis for the fiscal year and the periods for which an update of the accounts or cost elements affected by the shipment cost item is carried out.

The system uses the allowed posting period to check whether the specified posting date is allowed.
