Documentation
Definition
Data records from data entry and postings are distinguished technically according to posting level.
Thus, the following distinctions are made:
- Entered data is stored in the database with posting level 0.
- Posting level 1 is for standardizing entries that are company-specific.
- For consolidating entries in pairs, two companies are always assigned. This posting category, also referred to as eliminating entries, is on posting level 2. This level includes, for example, the postings for elimination of intercompany payables and receivables.
- Posting level 3 is used for postings that are only valid within one subgroup. These postings are consolidating entries that affect one or as many companies of the subgroup as desired.
- The explanation given for level 3 is also valid for posting level 4. This level differs from level 3 in the additional account assignment of the trading partner. Here, we also speak of subgroup-dependent postings, with the restriction that the contained consolidated companies do not belong to the subgroup. An example for this would be a reclassification of receivables against trading partners to receivables against others. This ensures that only amounts that apply to other companies would be reclassified.
Furthermore, posting level 8 is provided for data transfer from financial accounting systems. These records are automatically created and contain the adjustment of retained earnings and, if necessary, the necessary bill of exchange postings.
