Documentation

Definition

Key that uniquely identifies a contract account for each client in the SAP system.

Use

The postings in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable are always assigned to one contract account and one business partner.

In the master record for the contract account, you can define business partner-dependent procedures, which are to be used when processing line items. These include payment methods, dunning procedures and tolerances.

Note:

For utilities and insurance companies, a contract is assigned to just one contract account. However, multiple contracts can be assigned to a contract account, dependent on the contract account category.
