Here we will go through the exercise of a sample put warrant with delivery.

Note

The update types used in the example correspond to the Customizing settings delivered with the system.

Process Flow

Initial situation:

The balance sheet account 1 (put warrant) contains warrants to the value of 500 EUR for the sale of 500 units of the underlying. The balance sheet account 2 (underlying) contains a position of 1,000 units to the value of 10,000 EUR.

Exercising the option:

When the warrant is exercised, the system generates the following flows:

  1. The function Exercise security right generates the update type RHT0002 Rights: Position outflow units/nominal that reflects the quantity change in balance sheet account 1.
  2. Also, the update type DBT_D001 Clear purchase value (derived business transaction) is generated:

    Posting record

    Balance sheet clearing to position 1 500 EUR (A)

  3. The function Exercise security right generates the following flows for the position decrease in the underlying of 6,000 EUR:
  4. - Update type RHT0002 Rights: Position outflow units/nominal that reflects the quantity change in balance sheet account 2.

    - Update type RHT0005 Rights: Incoming payments that contains the information on the incoming payment amount.

    - Update type RHT0004 Rights: Position outflow amount that posts the value decrease in the underlying:

    A translation is generated also that modifies the position component acquisition value of position 2:

  5. A derived business transaction is generated for posting the option value to the outgoing position:
  6. DBT_D101 Post to outgoing position
