Editing Contract Relationships for Facilities
On the Contract Relationships
tab page, you can represent a hierarchy structure for a facility. You either assign accounts to the main master contract (top node) directly, or you assign master contracts, and then assign accounts beneath.
In Master Contract Management (FS-MCM), you have created the participating master contracts that you want to assign.
In the account-managing system, you have created the participating accounts that you want to assign to master contracts.
Note
Checking, savings, and loan accounts are allowed as participating accounts.
Note
Note the general prerequisites for master contracts under Editing Contract Relationships and the restrictions for time-dependent editing of contract relationships.
