Function documentation Inflation Adjustment of Monetary Items Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

In Turkey, when you prepare a balance sheet, you can adjust for inflation any outstanding monetary assets and liabilities – for example, bills of exchange, postdated checks, and reconciliation accounts for accounts payable and receivable – according to a specific formula. But, under Turkish law, you must reverse all of these adjustments when you open the next period.

To this end, you can use the Inflation Adjustment of Monetary Items program. It calculates the interest using the prescribed formula and makes the necessary postings. It then automatically reverses the postings at the beginning of the next period.

Prerequisites

Before you can run the report, you must:

  1. Define an inflation method and assign it to your company code
  2. Define which G/L accounts you want the system to post the inflation adjustments to (see Account Determination)
  3. Define an interest indicator and the corresponding interest rate
  4. Assign the interest indicator to the G/L accounts that are to be adjusted
