Example documentationScenario: Zero Balancing Taking into Account Amounts That are Flagged as Subject to Final Payment

 

In this scenario, the system takes into account payment receipts that were credited to the subaccount as being Subject to Final Payment, by return posting these after successful zero balancing to the subaccount. Such payment receipts can be, for example, credits from direct debit collections or checks that have been cashed.

Example Example

The value date-based balance of a subaccount is EUR 3,000.00 (credit). EUR 1,500.00 worth of payment receipts have been flagged as being Subject to Final Payment. During cash pooling (zero balancing), the system posts EUR 3,000.00 to the main account by debiting the subaccount. Then the system returns EUR 1,500.00 to the subaccount, flagged as being subject to final payment. This is done with the same posting date and the value date + 1 day.

End of the example.

Prerequisites

To represent this scenario in the system, you need to define the following rules in the settings for each account:

  • Main Account

    • No rule

  • Subaccounts

    • SAP0011000 (Surplus Clearing)

    • SAP0012000 (Deficit Clearing)

    • SAP0066000 (Replenishment for Unavailable Transfer Amounts)

Note Note

Do not combine rule SAP0066000 with the cash pooling method BVPF, since a return posting of the items that are subject to final payment means that the subaccount posting date-based balance is not EUR 0.00 according to the rule. However, the aim of the BVPF method is to clear the posting date-based balance of the subaccount so that its value is EUR 0.00.

End of the note.
