Parameters for Settlement

Use

The control parameters for settlement of investment measures are explained in this section. You define these parameters in Customizing for Investment Management . You assign them to the investment measure by means of the order type, model order type or the project profile that is used. In addition, you can change these parameters directly in the master record of the investment measure.

Features

Together with the settlement rules entered in the investment measure, these parameters control the complete process of settling an investment measure.

Settlement Profile

The settlement profile contains the most important control indicators for the settlement. Of particular importance, you can specify the allowed types of receivers for the settlement there. For example, you could allow for a settlement to cost centers in addition to the usual settlement to assets. The settlement profile also contains default values for the allocation structure and for the source structure. You specify the settlement profile in the order type or the project profile, or directly in the master data of the investment measure.

Investment Profile

The investment profile also plays a role during settlement. You specify in the investment profile whether the system performs line item settlement or summary settlement.

In the investment profile, you can also specify that an investment measure should have an asset under construction for each source assignment in the source structure.

Capitalization Key

The capitalization key is needed in this context only if you have different capitalization rules for different depreciation areas in Asset Accounting (for example, for local book depreciation, group depreciation and cost-accounting depreciation).
