Directly Assigned Costs in the Service Charge Settlement 
Use
As of this Release, you are able to display costs that have been directly assigned to the lease-out in the service charge settlement.
Basic Requirement:
In Customizing you have to create an apportionment unit with the "Directly assigned costs" indicator. All rental units with lease-outs that have directly assigned costs must be assigned to a settlement unit with this apportionment unit. You cannot make postings to these settlement units. They are only used to find the rental agreements that are to be settled together. The costs are directly assigned to the lease-out.
Posting Costs to a Lease-Out
When you make entries in an incoming invoice, the costs are assigned to the lease-out with a cost element specially created for this purpose (see Customizing).
When you post direct costs to a lease-out, you specify the lease-out and, as the settlement reference date, a date within the settlement period whose settlement is to be used to invoice the costs to the tenant. Costs that were posted to a lease-out without a reference date are not considered.
If the lease-out is subject to periodic costs, you can use the general contract (credit-side with costs passed on to the lease-out) for the regular posting. The periodic postings of the general contract check whether the cost element used to charge the lease-out is a cost element that is directly passed on to the tenant. If it is, the settlement reference date is filled with the due date of the cash flow.
You can also use recurring entry documents to charge the costs to the lease-out. However, here you have to fix the settlement reference date and adjust it after the settlement has been carried out. It is not automatically determined from the posting run data.
Cost Settlement
The directly assigned costs determined from CO are posted as a customer receivable in the service charge settlement.
Technical Information:
All documents that are taken into consideration are saved additionally in the new table viak19. The costs are added together in the same way as the receivables in table viak20.
In the settlement result these costs are only displayed, and are not saved in viak13 (apportionment result) since they were not apportioned by the settlement unit.
Effects on Customizing
Customizing now contains the new menu option "Accounts for Costs Assigned Directly to Lease-Outs" (Table TIV8A) under "Account Assignment" in the "Service Charge Settlement" section. Here, the accounts for which costs are directly posted to lease-outs are assigned to the flow types (of the advance payment conditions). In the settlement, the settlement participation is used to determine the condition types and flow types for which the costs directly assigned to the lease-outs are to be settled. The cost elements for these flow types are read from this table and the costs are passed on as described above to the determined cost elements.
Cost elements that are not listed in the table or that are assigned to a flow type for which the lease-out does not participate in the settlement, are not passed on in the service charge settlement. Note that there is no automatic check in this regard during posting. Before the settlement you can use the new report program "Costs Assigned Directly to Lease-Outs" (RFVINK42) in the info system to check whether the lease-outs were correctly assigned. This program lists the costs from the CO tables and also shows, for example, in which service charge settlement this document was considered.
In addition, you can now set the "Directly assigned costs" indicator for an apportionment unit (table TIV07). You cannot post any costs to a settlement unit which has been assigned this type of apportionment unit. Instead, during the settlement the costs directly posted to the assigned lease-outs are read and passed on.
Effects on System Administration
Index 2 should be active for table COEP (MANDT/OBJNR/KSTAR/GJAHR/PERIO/PAROB1), since this shortens the run times. You can check this with transaction SE11, table COEP, Indexes.
