) to integrate customer-specific activities within the policyholder change
The adjustment of the open payment plan items and the transfer posting of open items takes place on the due date, if no settlement period is filled (ABRZU/ABRZO fields in the table DFKKOP
Items for Contract Accounting Document
are empty) in the associated document.
The adjustment of open payment plan items and the transfer posting of open items takes place in the associated document, if the settlement period is filled and the

A customer has agreed a contract with monthly installment payments. This includes installments for the settlement period 01/03-31/03 and for the settlement period 01/04-30/04. The policyholder change takes place on 15/03 and the settlement period is defined in the document. The adjustment of open payment plan items takes place from the settlement period 01/04-30/04.
It is possible to change policyholder assignment more than once for an insurance object-business partner relationship. It is only possible to set more policyholder changes for the current policyholder. The business partner most recently set for a policyholder change is regarded as the current policyholder. You can find more information under Example for Multiple Policyholder Changes .
You can also change the validity date for a policyholder change that had already been created.
You can make the policyholder change from the SAP Easy Access menu or with the RFC-ready function module FSCD_CPH_PROCESS (
Execute Policyholder Change
). This function module allows the operational system to provide Collections/Disbursements with information that a policyholder change is to be processed.
After associated insurance object-business partner relationships have been archived or deleted, you can also delete data that is no longer required for policyholder changes. You can find more information under Deletion of Data for Policyholder Change .
You have adjusted the master data for the policyholder change in the operational system, and created the new policyholder and the insurance object-business partner relationship.
If you also want to transfer post open items to the new policyholder, you have defined the document type for the transfer posting document and the transfer posting reason in Customizing for
Collections/Disbursements
, under

Adam Smith
will become the new policyholder for insurance contract 7894 on 01/06/2007, replacing business partner 5461
Fred Smith
as policyholder. You can use this report to set the debit entry for open payment plan items to the new policyholder, and also to make any other changes.
