Documentation

Definition

Use

When making postings in Funds Management's feeder components (such as posting purchase orders or invoices), the system automatically determines the FM account assignment from the FM account assignment to CO account assignment allocation (if one has been maintained).

If you set this indicator:

  • You cannot use a manual entry to overwrite the FM account assignment determined by the system
  • The system automatically carries out subsequent account assignment changes in documents
  • If subsequent changes are made to the allocation, the documents affected can be reassigned using program RFFMCHAC

If you do not set this indicator:

  • You can overwrite the FM account assignment determined by the system. The FM account assignment to CO account assignment allocation only acts as a default value
  • The system does not automatically carry out subsequent account assignment changes in documents
  • If subsequent changes are made to the allocation, the documents affected cannot be reassigned using program RFFMCHAC

Procedure

Examples

Dependencies

If you also set the FM acct assgmt binding indicator, the following allocations in the system must match:

  • Commitment item to G/L account
  • Commitment item to cost element
  • CCommitment item to cost element as regards the cost center to FM account assignment allocation

If these allocations do not match, the system does not carry out the posting.
