Documentation
Definition
Specifies the days in a period that are used by the system to calculate the average debit or credit balance.
Use
If you decide to create the average credit or debit balance from your turnover class (you have selected the balancing method 03), you can use the period category to specify whether the system calculates the average using only the days on which credit or debit balances exist, or for all days in the period. In all other cases, you must choose whole period as the period category.
You have the following entry options:
- 00 Whole Period
The system uses all the days in the specified period to calculate the average balance. - 01 Effective Days
This value is only of use if you want to calculate the average of the balance types "debit interest" or "credit interest".
The credit balance calculation only includes those days for which the account had a credit balance.
The debit balance calculation only includes those days for which the account had a debit balance.

Example
An account has a debit balance of EUR 30,000 for one day. The settlement period has 30 days.
- Average balance of all days in period:
30,000/30 = EUR 1,000
- Average balance of all effective days on which the account was in debit:
30,000/1 = EUR 30,000
For an example of how to use these fields for condition determination, see Example of Condition Determination Using Turnover Classes.
