Documentation

Definition

If you select the option Check for existing records, the system checks whether each selected billing document has already been transferred to Profitability Analysis.

The only billing documents that are transferred are those that have not yet been transferred to Profitability Anaylsis.

If you are sure that the data records you want to repost do not contain any existing data records, you can deactivate this option, as the check is no longer necessary and the transaction can be executed more quickly this way. This is the case, for example, when you transfer data to Profitability Analysis for the first time.

In a live system where data has already been posted to Profitability Analysis, you should not select this option for safety reasons, in order to avoid posting the same billing document twice.
