Documentation
Definition
Date representing lower limit of a the beginning of the fiscal year.
Use
For the foreign currency valuation of open items, you can define a valuation method using time-dependent attributes. This enables you to use different methods for valuating the selected items, depending on their remaining term (the time span between the valuation key date and the due date of net payment of the item). In this case, the time grid is valid for the fiscal years that start on or after the specified date.
This delimitation date is necessary if both of the following conditions apply: (a) you use a valuation method - starting from a specific valuation key date - for multiple company codes with different fiscal year variants (for example, the fiscal year of company code A equals the calendar year, whereas company code B has a shifted fiscal year from April to March); (b) the application of the valuation method is dependent on the beginning of the fiscal year.
Dependencies
Example
According to the guidelines of an accounting principle, you want to valuate customer and vendor items that have been posted in a foreign currency as well as items of G/L accounts managed on an open item basis using different valuation methods depending on their remaining terms. This accounting principle applies to fiscal years that begin on or after January 1, 2010.
In this case, the time-dependent valuation grid is basically valid for the valuation from the key date January 1, 2010 onward. However, the grid is not relevant in the months of January to March, 2010, for a company code with a shifted fiscal year from April to March; instead the grid is valid only for the (new) fiscal year, which begins in April. Therefore, the grid for this company code is be applied only to valuation key dates on or after April 1, 2010.
