Documentation

Definition

User-assigned key for displaying open items.

Use

Those line items belonging to the same document, or to documents with the same reference number, and in which the same grouping key is entered, can be presented together as one item when you are processing open items.

Procedure

Assign a common grouping key to all items that are to appear as one item in the display.

Examples

If a customer invoice contains items from different divisions, but the customer is only given a final amount to be paid, a summarized display will simplify the assignment of incoming payments.

Dependencies

Items with the same grouping key can only be shown as one item if, depending on current processing (like manual processing of incoming payments), other data from the items also matches (due date, cash discount, deferral).
