1. New sender rule: Fixed sender activity prices

In addition to the sender rules "Posted amounts" or "Fixed amounts", a further sender rule "Fixed activity prices" was included for assessment, distribution, and periodic transfer posting. This way, you can determine an activity price for every sender per unit of the receiver tracing factor (see example).

These fixed sender activity prices are defined similarly to the specification of the fixed sender amounts.

2. Plan data in the actual data or actual data for the plan data - iterative relationships are recognized correctly.

By choosing the indicator "Plan values" in segment maintenance, plan costs rather than posted actual values are allocated for actual data when making an actual allocation. Similarly, the actual values are allocated for the plan data by choosing the indicator "Actual values" for a plan allocation.

However, iterative relationships are no longer recognized correctly in these two cases if the senders of this segment were also the receiver in other segments of the cycle.

These restrictions are now eliminated and iterative relationships to senders are also recognized that are used to allocate the plan values within an actual cycle or to allocate the actual values within a plan cycle.

3. Periodic transfer posting for plan data.

This functionality is also provided as a plan allocation method similar to "Periodic transfer posting for actual data". Regarding handling and functionality, the "Periodic transfer posting for plan data" corresponds to the corresponding actual transactions.

4. Controlling area removed from the initial screens.

1. Instead of the pushbutton "Update", the pushbutton "Test run" is now used in processing. This pushbutton is always switched on when starting the transaction. Unlike the previous use of the update switch, simple switching off of the pushbutton "Test run" results in an actual update of the created postings.

2. The pushbutton "With line items" was removed for the actual allocations in Cost Center Accounting and Activity Based Costing. Activating the pushbutton "Detail lists" now automatically results in the possibility of branching from the list of results to the line item report as well.
