Creating a Recurring Entry Session 

In the next step, you create a batch input session based on the recurring document templates. This means that the system analyzes all existing recurring document templates and determines for which template to create an actual accounting document. These accounting documents are stored in a batch input session for further processing.

This scenario is based on the assumption that the recurring documents have been processed each period up to the period prior to the current period. If this is not the case, please check the last run date under the recurring entry data and select a calculation period that covers the period from the last run date to the current run date.
