 Checking Due Dates

Use

When executing a settlement run, you must first determine which accounts are due.

If you run settlement in a mass run , the system searches for all due accounts using the selection parameters Execution Date and Bank Posting Area , which you entered in the transaction BCA_ACBAL_ACC_M Execute Account and Master Contract Settlement for the mass run.

If the Next Execution Date (settm_date) of an account is on or before the Execution Date specified for the mass run, then the account is due and is selected for the settlement.

If you execute settlement in a single run , then the account is settled on the settlement date that you specified. You can also settle an account in a single run outside of its regular time period. The system checks the due date of an account using the time period of the account.

You cannot settle an account after its due date. The settlement period cannot be extended.
