Settling a Security Transaction  

Use

Use this function to settle security transactions that belong the Contract activity. (This is only possible for transaction types to which the processing category 00002 has been assigned). The flows for the purchase/sale in planned status are transferred to actual flows.

Procedure

  1. Choose Back office ® Transaction ® Settle.

    2. The screen for settling security transactions appears. Enter the Company code and the Transaction number.

  2. Make any necessary changes.
  3. You can settle a transaction in two ways:
    1. You either first enter the settlement data in the system without activating the Flagged for posting indicator. To do this, choose Security transaction ® Note.
    2. Or, you save your entries. This fixes the transaction (the flows become actual flows in the Treasury subledger). The flows are now Flagged for posting, and can be transferred to Financial Accounting using the Post transaction function.
  4. After you have posted the order settlement, the system generates a posting log. This shows you how the FI accounting document generated from the order settlement will look.
