Documentation
Definition
Specifies the end date of a validity period. The fields Valid-From and Valid-To limit the validity period of the following elements:
- The validity period of a condition in a condition list
Use
You should make an entry in this field in special cases only. If you enter a valid-to date, you can make an entry in the Reason for Assignment of Condition field.
You should restrict periods only if there is a reason for the restriction, for example, because you want an individual condition to apply for a customer for a specific time only.
If you restrict the validity of conditions, there may be periods in which no component of the condition is valid.
Therefore, standard conditions normally should not have a valid-to date. Individual conditions, however, often have a valid-to date, since they are often temporary.
Dependencies
If you have more than one validity period for a condition, and the valid-to date is blank for all of the periods, then the validity periods of a condition have the following dependencies:
The valid-from date of the next period restricts the previous period. The validity end of the previous period is then the valid-from date of the next period minus one calendar day.
Example
Standard condition for debit interest:
- Component 1: Valid-from date: January 1, 2002, valid-to date: empty, interest rate: 10%.
- Component 2: Valid-from date: April 1, 2002, valid-to date: empty, interest rate: 12%.
The following debit interest applies:
- January 1, 2002 to March 31, 2002 (= April 1, 2002 minus one calendar day): 10%.
- Since April 1, 2002: 12%.
Individual condition for debit interest on account 4711 (the above standard debit interest condition applies):
- Component 1: Valid-from date: March 1, 2002, valid-to date: June 30, 2002, interest rate: 9%.
The following debit interest applies to account 4711:
- January 1, 2002 to February 28, 2002 (= one calendar day before start of validity of individual condition component): 10%.
- March 1, 2002 to June 30, 2002 (individual condition, overrides standard condition): 9%
- Since July 1, 2002: 12%
