Define standard account assignments for line items in processes in which account assignments cannot be derived, for example, when a journal entry was posted.

Here you define default account assignments (for example, a default segment) for specific line items in processes for which it is not possible to derive the correct account assignments at the time when the document is posted. This is the case if the required information is not yet available when the posting occurs.

Note:Cash pooling (constant 0CASH) is relevant only for Public Sector Management – Fund Accounting. Cash pooling supports the merging of funds cash into a single treasury fund for common monetary investments at local or state level of the US government. Cash receipts into a fund or cash paid from a fund are automatically swept from/into the treasury fund.

The segment can be used as an example of an account assignment: For a cash receipt from a customer that is posted to a house bank account, it is not immediately known which invoices are to be paid by this cash receipt.

Step 1:
To make the information concerning available financial means available to the system within the shortest possible delay, a posting from checking account against cash receipt is made. Since no additional information is available for this, the account assignment must be made to a default segment.

Account	Segment	Amount
Checking Account	Default	1000.00
Cash Receipt	Default	1000.00–

Step 2
The cash receipt account is then posted against the customer (with clearing of the customer). In this way, the correct segment(s) can be determined from the cleared invoice.

Account	Segment	Amount
Cash Receipt	0001	1000.00
Customer	0001	1000.00

Step 3
Finally, both items on the cash receipt account are cleared against each other. Since both positions are assigned to different segments, corresponding clearing items must be generated on the cash receipt account.

If a zero balance is required for a segment, additional line items that set the document balance per segment to zero are generated on a clearing account defined in Customizing. These clearing items reflect the correction of the segment information on the checking account. However, it is no longer possible to determine the correct checking account. This could be ambiguous in more complex cases than this example. It is therefore useful to assign the clearing account in the balance sheet to the checking accounts.

If a zero balance is required for a segment, additional line items that set the document balance per segment to zero are generated on a clearing account defined in Customizing.

Account	Segment	Amount
Cash Receipt	Default	1000.00
Cash Receipt	0001	1000.00
Clearing	0001	1000.00
Clearing	Default	1000.00–
