·        In addition to entering the main flow at the start of term, you can also enter other principal increases and decreases during the term to enable you to map repayment schedules, for example.

·        You can create a Money Market transaction directly as a contract. A transaction becomes legally binding with the activity category Contract.

·        The activity sequence is dependent on the processing category that is chosen in Customizing (with/without settlement).

·        Within transaction management you can branch from each application to the Business Partner management functions to create, display and change business partners and maintain their payment details.

·        Each activity within transaction management (such as contract and processing) can be analyzed in Cash Management.

·        Flows are generated automatically when you create financial transactions.

Example: When you create a fixed-term deposit, the principal increase, nominal interest and final repayment flows are generated.
