In this step you define your posting specifications and the FI accounts to which the different types of business transactions are to be posted.

The posting rules you specify here are dependent on the following factors:

• Flow type

• Payment activity: G/L account posting or posting to customer account

Account determination consists of two stages:

In the first stage you define the posting specifications dependent on the above factors. The posting specifications describe the type of posting in an abstract form, irrespective of company code and chart of accounts. Each time, you need to define the following for both the credit and debit side:

• The posting category describes the type of account to be posted.

For both the debit and credit sides, a distinction is made between:

1: Balance sheet (account from account assignment reference)

2: Subledger (customer)

3: Bank (bank account from flow)

4: Income statement (G/L account as defined under Accounts with cost center)

5: G/L account (G/L account as defined under Accounts with cost center)

• The account symbol describes a group of G/L accounts. Account symbols are used to group together the same type of postings (e.g. repayment, interest revenue and so on).

• The posting key contains information specific to FI (for example, DEBIT posting).

In the second stage, the abstract account symbols are replaced by FI G/L accounts. How they are replaced depends on the factors account assignment reference and currency. For posting type 1 (balance sheet), no replacement takes place, since the balance sheet accounts are already defined in the account assignment reference for each company code.

Depending on the posting type, you use the balance sheet account or the internal bank clearing account (only posting category 3) as the account model. The "+" fields indicate which figures should be copied.

The entry "account symbol #", "Account assignment reference +", "Currency +", "Account ++++++++++" is mainly used for postprocessing incoming payments, where you want to credit the same bank clearing account previously debited.

You want to manage your disbursement commitments on various balance sheet accounts according to the account assignment reference:

Account assignment reference	G/L account
30A (mortgage loan)	46000
31A (borrower's note loan)	46010
32A (policy loan)	46020

You need to make three different assignments for the flow type 'loan disbursement'. Using account symbol "*" for the balance sheet account, you make the debit posting to the G/L account 'balance sheet account'. In order to make the credit posting to three different disbursement commitment accounts, you need to set up three different account assignments.

For the relevant chart of accounts, define the following for the three account assignment references:

Acct symbol		Acct assignm.ref.	Currency	G/L account
*DISB.COM.		30A		+		46000
*DISB.COM.		31A		+		46010
*DISB.COM.		32A		+		46020

These settings allow you to post the different types of loans to different accounts.

 

1. Choose Edit -> Create.
2. Enter the factors to be used for finding the posting specifications:
1. Flow type
2. Payment transaction: G/L account posting (house bank not specified): (1), G/L account posting (house bank specified): (2), customer account posting (X)
3. Enter the posting keys in the detail screen and assign them to an account symbol. Where applicable, define new account symbols (Choose Symbols -> Create).
4. Enter an indicator for the document type.
5. Enter a posting type.
6. Assign a valid FI account to each account symbol (Choose Goto -> Accounts). Posting category 1 is an exception as no replacement is made, since the account is taken from the account assignment reference.
7. Save your entries.

 

Special general ledger indicator

The special general ledger indicator is not supported for Loans Management. Leave this field blank.

Document type

The document type classifies the accounting documents. When you post a logical unit, such as a payment instalment, the system only creates one posting document. You should therefore specify the same document type for all the flows in the logical unit, in this example for the interest and the annuity repayment flows.

Compression indicator (Comp)

The compression indicator allows you to specify separately for debit and credit postings whether document items from the posting may be compressed with other document items. Here, the term "compression" means that document items which have the same value date and affect the same G/L account are cleared, and only the net amount appears as a document item in the FI document. If all the document items in an FI document cancel each other out, no FI posting is made.

If you do NOT set the compression indicator (Comp), the system COMPRESSES the document items (default setting). If you SET the indicator, the items are NOT COMPRESSED.

Exception:

Postings with customers cannot be compressed.
