Documentation

Definition

You can use this indicator to specify for renewal subscriptions that the billing document is to be generated at the same time as the renewal subscription. Generation of the billing document creates a claim against the customer and thus an open item in Financial Accounting.

If the indicator is selected, the renewal offer is binding and can no longer be changed. If the payment amount differs, this must lead to receivable or repayment in Financial Accounting.

Creation of a billing document at the same time as a renewal offer is an exceptional case. Normally, billing is not performed for renewal subscriptions until an incoming payment is received. The billing amount corresponds to the payment amount.
