Payment Items (FS-AM-IM-IT)

Alphanumeric, maximum ten-character placeholder for an account identification or several account identifications.

Using account symbols has the advantage that when you wish to assign another account identification to the account symbol, you only have to make a change at a central point of the Customizing settings.

In the Account Management Customizing settings account symbols are used for P+L clearing accounts and for CpD (suspense) and processing accounts. In the application itself you work with actual account identifications, rather than account symbols.
