Documentation
Definition
The Invoicing function Deferred Revenues integrates the function from Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) with the same name in Invoicing. This ensures that invoiced services can have an effect on revenues at a later date, rather than immediately.
Use
By activating the Deferred Revenues function, you can post services invoiced that only have an effect on revenues in the future to a separate revenue account. At the point when they have an effect on revenue, they are posted back to the usual revenue account.
To trigger a deferred revenue posting for invoiced services, in Invoicing, you have to trigger an update of additional data for the deferred revenue realization by defining a customer-specific function module as program enhancement for event 2615. You can determine the transfer dates and the amounts of the deferred revenue postings per revenue item transferred.
Dependencies
In order to be able to use the function, you must already use deferred revenue postings in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable. The corresponding Customizing settings must be maintained.
It only makes sense to activate this invoicing function if there is a customer implementation for the relevant event 2615.
