FINSVC_IMP_RULE - Define Rules for Impairment

Maintain rules for calculating the probability of default and thus the expected credit loss for accounting principles.

To calculate the amount of the expected credit loss for your financial statement, you must define the probability of default. In an impairment rule, you maintain the probability of default.

With the help of a risk class, you define how high the probability is that your business partner fails to pay.

The risk classes are linked to the accounting principle that you use.

The settings you make here are effective for the following processes:

• Flat-rate value adjustment postings in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA)

• Post credit-risk based impairment

As a business configuration expert, you've maintained the following settings in your Configuration Environment:

• You have activated advanced valuation in the Activate Advanced Valuation configuration activity.

• You have defined an aging with the category IMPAIR with aging increments in the Define Aging Increments for Advanced Valuationconfiguration activity.
