Effectively Ending Commission Contracts Automatically

Use

We recommend using this function if you wish to effectively end a large number of commission contracts.

You also have the option of effectively ending individual contracts manually .

Prerequisite

If you wish to carry out further checks (to find out, for instance, if all entitlements have been disbursed or to exclude contracts from existing liability scenarios), you have to define these checks yourself.

Procedure

  1. Use transaction CACS_END_CTRT to access the function for effectively ending legally ended commission contracts.

  2. Specify the key date for the Examination Period . The system checks all commission contracts effective up to and including this date.

  3. Enter the commission contract numbers. You can either specify single values or a value range.

    Note Note

    If you dot specify any contract numbers, the system checks the requirements for effectively ending all existing contracts.

    End of the note.

  4. Specify the Processing Type .

    If you choose Test Run , you can first display an overview of all contracts to be ended and process the necessary contracts before they are ended. The following types of display mode are available:

    • List Output of all Contracts

    • Only Contracts That Can Be Ended

    • Only Contracts That Can’t Be Ended

  5. If you choose Update Run , you can specify whether the contracts are to be flagged for archiving.

    Note Note

    If you select the Only Output Ended Contracts , these are displayed in a list. If you do not set this indicator, all contracts are displayed in the list.

    End of the note.

  6. Choose Execute.

Result

The contracts checked are output in a list with their contract number , contract end date and status. The following statuses may be displayed:

  • (OK)

  • (error)

In the standard delivery, the system checks whether individual agreements (such as guarantees, flat rates) are ended in all contracts. If any customer-specific checks have been defined, these are also started with the check.

Error status: The system assigns the error status to contracts in which at least one check has failed. You can double-click the contract number to access and correct the contract(s) with errors.

Once you have made all the necessary corrections, start the check again. When the errors have been corrected, the system changes the status of the contracts to OK .
