Manual Debit Position (Incoming Payments)

Use

You use the Manual Debit Position (Incoming payments) function to:

  • Edit and post flows generated by the conditions of a security (such as dividends, interest or repayments).

  • Edit and post flows entered as planned flows using the manual posting function.

You can use the manual debit position function to edit an individual activity made up of one or several flows with planned status. Use the Automatic debit position function to edit or post several activities together.

Integration

The automatic debit position and manual debit position (incoming payments) functions are closely linked. Both functions are used to process flows generated by the conditions. You process many flows together when you use the automatic debit position function, whereas the manual debit position (incoming payments) function enables you to process each flow individually. Here you can also make changes to the flows.

By making the appropriate Customizing settings, you can set up the functions together so that you can use a two-step procedure to process regularly occurring flows that are generated by the conditions. To do this, see Automatic Debit Position . If you decided to use the two-step procedure, you can only use the manual debit position (incoming payments) function to process those incoming payment flows that were generated by the automatic posting run. [You can, of course, still use the manual debit position (incoming payments) function to process flows that were generated as planned records by the manual posting function.]

Prerequisites

If you have chosen the two-step procedure to process flows generated by the conditions, you have to make certain settings in Customizing.

See Automatic Debit Position
