Documentation

Definition

Key that uniquely identifies a contract account per client.

Use

The postings in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable are always assigned to a business partner and a contract account. In the contract account master record, you can define business partner-specific procedures to be applied when the line items are processed further. These include, for example, payment methods, dunning procedures, tolerances.

Note: In utilities and insurance companies, a contract is always assigned to exactly one contract account. However, depending on the contract account category, several contracts can be assigned to one contract account.
