Documentation
Definition
A general N:M relationship (N actual line items linked by a clearing posting to M info line items, such as a customer or vendor) cannot normally be cleared automatically in the first step of the FI evaluation mechanisms if N or M are greater than 1.
The affected documents for the actual line items would therefore have to be assigned to liquidity items manually. This indicator activates the following workaround:
Assuming that with the existing FI constellation, only the total set of N payment line items can be assigned to liquidity items, and not each one separately, the system chooses one line item to represent the set, and then inflates the amount of this representative line item artificially. To compensate, it generates a virtual offsetting line item.
The liquidity items are then assigned to the representative line item 1:M as in a straightforward case. The other actual line items and the virtual offsetting line item are assigned the dummy liquidity items.
Example
Three payment line items are linked by clearing postings to several information line items:
Z1 - Amount 1000-
Z2 - Amount 500-
Z3 - Amount 100+
Line Z1 becomes the representative line item Z1R, and the system generates an offsetting line item Z1C. The liquidity items are assigned as follows:
Z1R - Amount 1400- Liquidity items from information line items
Z1G - Amount 400+ Dummy line item for N:M incoming payment
Z1G - Amount 500- Dummy line item for N:M outgoing payment
Z1G - Amount 100+ Dummy line item for N:M incoming payment
