Use accrual and deferral if you occasionally need the posted receivables and revenues of a financial statement and balance (on an accrual basis) on a particular key date.

Use this function for projecting a periodic comparison or prognosis if receivables or commitments are posted on an irregular basis due to contractual obligations.

In Customizing for Real Estate, you also have to define the flow types as well as the account determination for accrual and deferral. Use the relevant reference flow types to define these flow types (define a flow type for each condition type)

• Accrual and deferral of prepaid rents and rents paid in arrears
• Sales accrual and deferral
