Sender Rule

A sender rule controls how sender values are determined. You can use the following sender rules for sender values:

  • Posted balances

  • Fixed amounts

  • Fixed rates

    Note Note

    If you choose the sender rule posted amounts , you can choose the selection criteria in the Sender values tab page.

    If you choose the sender rule fixed amounts or fixed rates , the Distribution Criteria List dialog box appears on the Sender values tab page . Select the distribution criteria.

    End of the note.
Posted balances

The posted balance (amount) stored in the database for the sender is posted to the receiver. When you define the allocation rule for the sender, you can determine what percentage of the sender balance should be credited with the allocation amount.

Note Note

The sender balance is 50,000 EUR. You define a percentage of 50% to be credited to the sender. The amount 25,000 EUR is credited to the sender. The sender balance is now 25,000 EUR.

You want to credit an allocation to sender accounts 501000 through 502000 . For this allocation, you want to use the balances of accounts 601000 through 602000 as sender. To do this, proceed as follows:

End of the note.

Use the posted amounts allocation rule for the sender.

Define accounts 501000 to 502000 as sender and accounts 601000 to 602000 as sender values .

The system distributes the balances of accounts 601000 through 602000 , but posts these as a credit to accounts 501000 through 502000 .

Fixed amounts

You can allocate a specific fixed amount of the sender. The balance of the sender is not considered. The following options are available:

  • You can allocate a specific, fixed amount from each sender

  • You can allocate amounts in any currency

Each time the allocation cycle is performed, the same amount is allocated/distributed from the sender. The allocated amount does not depend on the current balance of the sender.

Fixed rates

If you determine a fixed rate for each unit of the receiver tracing factor, the following then applies:

  • The sender is not credited with a specific amount (unlike with fixed amounts). The sender is credited with the amount that results from multiplying the fixed rate with the total of the respective receiver tracing factors. This sender value is then allocated/distributed to the receiver according to the receiver tracing factor.

  • The receiver is debited with an amount that results from multiplying its tracing factor by the sender fixed rate .
