Function documentationCentral Clearing Monitor

 

The central clearing monitor allows you to display all financial transactions that are relevant for clearing and to process them from this central location.

You can process all clearing-relevant financial transactions collectively when you accept or reject clearing, replace the clearing partner, or use the reversal functions.

The central clearing monitor displays the clearing details and the flows as well as the clearing history for a financial transaction.

You can process financial transactions either individually or collectively. In this way, you can select, for example, all financial transactions with the clearing status Clearing Requested (Planned) and for which clearing has been accepted by the clearing partner, and then accept clearing collectively in the system for all these selected financial transactions.
