Creating a Position Indicator
You can enter a position indicator for a class at company code level or at securities account level.
a) Creating a position indicator for a class at company code level
The upper part of the screen displays the Company code, the Security number and the Product type.
Valuation class: Here, you can define the valuation class in the company code position. The system defaults to the valuation parameters that are preset in Customizing. These are overwritten when you define your own.

b) Creating a position indicator for a class at securities account level
1. Enter the Company code, ID number and the Securities account.
2. ENTER
The Company code, Security number and the Product type are displayed at the top of the screen.
The remaining part of the screen is divided into two areas.
3. The upper part contains the entry fields for the position data for the Securities account position.
Here, you enter the securities account position data. If the position indicator already exists for the company code, the system takes the data from the company code as default values for the securities account position indicator.
You can overwrite the data.

In the Asset grouping field, the asset grouping of the class at company code level appears as a default value. You can either:
- Take this value
- Choose a different asset group
- Delete the default value (if you do, the securities account position has no asset grouping).

If the account assignment reference is dependent on the balance sheet indicator and/or the asset grouping, the entry for this field is mandatory.
If the valuation class selected has the valuation category '20' or '22', you must assign the position to a securities account group.
Click the Assign securities account group or New securities account group pushbuttons.
If the position indicator already exists for the company code, the company code data is displayed, but is cannot be changed.
