Documentation

Definition

Date to which an open item is deferred beyond the actual due date.

Use

The date is used as the basis for the automatic creation of dunning notices or debit memos instead of the due date specification.

Note for the industry component Insurance

The control elements of the contract account also contain incoming and outgoing payment agreements. Here you can also define periodic dunning frequencies. These are stored in the individual posting in the deferral field. The values determined by the frequencies are considered by the dunning run and the payment run.

Incoming payment agreements

Periodic incoming payment agreements are possible for each contract account. Incoming payment agreements only apply for receivables, that is, amounts larger than zero. As well as the frequency, incoming payment agreements also contain a base date to which the frequency applies. On posting, the deferral field is always determined if a base date is given for the contract account and receivables are posted. In the determination, the base date is increased by the frequency until a date is reached that is after or equal to the maximum of the due date of the individual posting to be created and the system date. The date thus determined is placed in the deferral field.

Outgoing payment agreements

Outgoing payments are possible for every business partner of a contract account. Outgoing payment agreements are only valid for payables. Payables are the amounts whose value is smaller than zero. As well as the frequency, outgoing payment agreements also contain a base date to which the frequency applies. On posting, the deferral field is always determined if a base date is given for the account partner and payables are posted. In the determination, the base date is increased by the frequency of the account partner until a date is reached that is after or equal to the maximum of the due date of the individual posting to be created and the system date. The date thus determined is placed in the deferral field.
