Work with calculation/redistribution (FMR00704)
Note: All calculation/redistribution modes are handled from this program. You select the applicable mode by toggling Shift mode. The panel sub-heading differs accordingly. The following modes are available:
- Fixed direct
- Fixed batch
- Dynamic direct
- Dynamic batch
On this panel you enter the account combination that will be the basis for the calculation or redistribution rule(s) that are valid for the base account record.
Function keys
| Text | Access the Text Editor to enter, view or maintain additional information for the base account record. |
- Identity
- Enter a unique code to identify the base account for the original entry and voucher type you are creating.
Base account
- Account part 1-8
- Enter the account combination that will be the basis for the calculation or redistribution rule(s). The system automatically checks that the accounts you state exist in the Account file, that they are active, and that entries can be made on them. The system also checks the combination code for the main account part, if a main account is part of the combination.
In the dynamic calculation/redistribution, a special case of underscoring of an account is provided. It gives the opportunity to automatically get repeated dynamic base creation for an account part (or a masked part of it). See the Dynamic base account section for further details.
- Voucher type
- Enter a voucher type if you want to create automatic entries for only those postings that have a certain voucher type. The system checks if the voucher type allows calculation/redistribution. If you leave the field blank, all valid postings will create automatic entries, provided the voucher types allow calculation/redistribution.
- Calc/redistr type
- Enter 1 to create a calculation rule, or 2 to create a redistribution rule. This field cannot be changed after update of the record.
- One level
- NO is defaulted. Set to YES if the system should only create automatic postings on one level for this base account record, i.e. the postings that are created will not result in further calculations or redistributions when running the Create calculation/redistribution transactions routine. Leave NO if the automatic postings should be created on more than one level until there are no more rules to apply (up to nine levels is possible).
- Valid voucher date
- Optional entry. Enter the date range between which the calculation or redistribution rule(s) should be valid. “From date” or “To date” can be excluded which means that the range will be unlimited. If either of the date fields is completed, then the Valid period fields must be blank. When you run the calculation/redistribution (direct or batch), then the voucher date of the incoming transaction must be within the entered date interval.
- Valid period
- Optional entry. Enter the period range between which the calculation or redistribution rule(s) should be valid. “From period” or “To period” can be excluded which means that the range will be unlimited. If either of the period fields is completed, then the Valid voucher date fields must be blank. When you run the calculation/redistribution (direct or batch), then the accounting period of the incoming transaction must be within the entered period interval.
- Text exists
- Indicates if additional information exists for the base account record. Click Text to enter new, maintain or view existing text.
