Additional Information

For transferring information about cash security deposits, you can use the interface component Request Cash Security Deposit (CASH_SEC). It makes fields available in the billable item that you can use for creating a cash security deposit.

The billable item specifies a request reason for the security deposit. Billing updates the request reason in the billing document items. Invoicing creates a cash security deposit request subsequently in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable for the affected billing document items. The start date and release date for the cash security deposit are specified by the start and end dates of the period belonging to the items.

Another option is to use the new invoicing function Create Cash Security Deposit (SECURITY_CRT) to specify which cash security deposits are created in invoicing for the contract account to be invoiced.

For transferring the information about the cash security deposit, use a function module processed at event 2624. You can specify whether one or more cash security deposits are created for a contract account, or you can differentiate by contract. The cash security deposit request can be paid in invoicing, whereby a down payment is created as the security deposit.
