Use

You have to define conditions for sales-based rent in order to be able to post sales-based rent. Also, if advance payments were made for sales-based rent or a minimum sales-based rent is defined, conditions allow you to offset these against the sales-based rent to be paid.

Prerequisites

You defined the necessary condition types in Customizing and assigned them attributes for sales-based rent. In Customizing choose:

SAP Customizing Implementation Guide → Flexible Real Estate Management → Conditions and Flows → Condition Types

You set the Relevant to Sales indicator on the General Data tab page in the real estate contract.

Procedure

On the Conditions tab page, assign the necessary conditions to the contract. The following condition types are relevant for sales-based rent settlement:

Advance Payment for Sales-Based Rent

One-time or recurring condition for sales-based rent; requires actual rent as condition purpose. Advance payments made by the tenant are offset against the sales-based rent resulting from the sales-based rent agreement.

Minimum Rent

Minimum amount of sales-based rent to be paid. This is usually a condition with the condition purpose actual rent , but can also be used as a statistical condition.

Maximum Rent

Maximum amount of sales-based rent to be paid (cap). Maximum rent is usually represented by one or more statistical conditions. The maximum amount is the sum of the conditions, limited to the given settlement period.

Sales-Based Rent(Required for Every Sales Rule)

This condition defines how the receivable or credit memo is posted. It is not possible to assign a unit price to this condition, since the posting amount is determined by the sales-based rent settlement. The calculation formula always has to be sales-based rent (see: Customizing settings). The system generates a cash flow item for the posting that reflects the posting period and settlement period. For this reason, you do not enter a frequency for this condition. Instead, it is defined as a one-time condition.

The Sales-Based Rent condition is also used to specify which objects of the sales-based rent agreement form the basis for sales-based rent. This makes it possible to determine sales-based rent using measurements as a basis (for example, per square foot of retail space). If the condition has a distribution rule, then sales are distributed to the objects using this rule.

Note that the system uses only the last distribution formula in the settlement period. The system does not distribute proportionally within the settlement period if there is a change to the distribution formula.

On the Terms subtab, assign the same sales rule to all advance payment conditions for sales-based rent, to all minimum sales-based rent conditions, and to just one Sales-Based Rent condition.

You have to assign a single Sales-Based Rent condition to each sales rule.

If a contract contains more than one sales rule, you have to assign that number of Sales-Based Rent conditions in order to be able to perform settlement. You cannot use advance payments or minimum sales-based rent conditions for settlement. You can assign a sales rule to from zero to any number of advance payments and to from zero to any number of minimum sales-based rent conditions.
