Enhancement for garnishments, Germany: Discount rate
Description
Data for calculating interest is entered in infotype 0113, Garnishment Interest (D).
There are garnishment rulings in which interest is calculated for the amount owed using the discount rate of the German Bundesbank.
Until now, it was necessary to determine this interest rate and modify it each time the discount rate was changed. Since it changed regularly, this resulted in a great deal of extra work.
Due to this, it is now possible to specify that the interest is to be taken from the discount rate in the Interest calculation type field in infotype 0113 and the fixed amount by which the discount rate is to be raised in the Interest rate field.
Change system parameters in customizing
The discount rates are stored in the constant Garnishment
discount rate (PFDIS) . When the discount rate is changed, you
need only maintain the constants and interest calculation is then performed
with the discount rate valid for the period in question. For further
information, please see 
Change discount rate in the implementation guide.
