Collective processing enables you to manage your own financial transactions in the Transaction Manager. Besides functions that allow you to select and display transactions, you can also go to the individual screens for processing the transactions.

Transaction management includes entering and processing financial transactions for the following product categories:

• Fixed-term deposits and deposits at notice
• Commercial Paper
• Cash flow transactions
• Interest rate instruments
• Facilities
• Spot exchange and forward exchange transactions
• Interest rate derivatives
• OTC options and listed options
• Futures
• Security transactions

To carry out collective processing:

The area to the left of the screen shows the selection variants in a tree view, which you can configure yourself, whereas the area to the right of the screen displays the last selection of transactions the user made.

Collective processing enables you to generate a list of transactions according to selection criteria that you define. To enter selection criteria on an entry screen:

2. The initial screen for collective processing appears. Here, you enter the selection criteria according to which you want to create the list of business transactions (for example, general selections, position assignment, additional fields, entered on/last changed).
3. Choose Execute (the execute button is in the lower part of the entry screen).
4. The system displays a list of the selected transactions.

You can also store any number of selections as variants and manage them in collective processing in a tree view for specific users or for all users. You can access all the management functions for variants via a context menu in the tree view.

To add a variant that has already been defined to the tree view:

3. Enter the name of the variant you want to add and confirm your entry with ENTER.
4. The variant now appears as a separate node below the tree node you selected. By double-clicking this node, you can execute the assigned selection for the variant.

The list of transactions is displayed with the help of the SAP List Viewer, which provides extensive options for structuring the list rows and columns, and for sorting and displaying totals.

You also have the option of processing the transactions from the collective processing list.

1. Position your cursor on the transaction you want to process.
2. Open the context menu using the right mouse button. You can select one of the functions from the menu with which you can process the selected transaction. Alternatively, you can go these functions using the buttons above the list display.
3. When you select a function, the corresponding processing mode appears, from which you can carry out the necessary steps.
