Definition

Use

For certain payees, payments are collected and paid out as a collective payment.

The documents are collected on a contract account that is assigned to the payee. The payment run in the SAP Collections/Disbursements system (FS-CD) enables all the collected documents to be cleared with one document. This means the payee only receives one transfer or one check.

Dependencies

The following prerequisites must be met before you can make collective payments for a particular business partner:

  • There is an FS-CD insurance object for the payee from the insurance object category stored here.
  • Depending on the active parameters, the Clear Variable indicator must either be set on the FS-CD contract account of the policyholder or on the insurance object for the claim.

    You make this setting in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for the Insurance industry-specific component:

    • Contract account:
      • Choose Collections/Disbursements -> Basic Functions -> Insurance Object -> Account Creation Variant Settings -> Define Account Creation Variants.
    • Insurance object:
      • Choose Collections/Disbursements -> Basic Functions -> Insurance Object -> Define Insurance Object Categories.
  • You must select a payment method for the payment from the Clearing category. The possible payment methods are defined in the Collections/Disbursements IMG in the IMG activity Define Payment Methods.

    If the system finds an FS-CD insurance object when creating a payment for the payee, it proposes this clearing payment method to the user.

Example

  • An insurance company reimburses the police authority with the relatively low costs for all accident reports on a weekly basis.
  • A workshop does not want to be sent individual checks. Instead, it wants to receive one single check containing the total of all payments made from different claims.
