Additional Details

For accounting reasons, it can be necessary to post certain deferred revenues in the current period despite a posting date in the future. To do so, set the Use Fixed Alternative Posting Date in FPDR indicator in even 1142. The system then displays the Always Use Alternative Posting Date indicator in the transaction for transferring deferred revenue FPDR. If you set this indicator and enter a transfer date, the system uses this alternative posting date not only for the triggers for deferred revenue with a posting date in a closed posting period, but also for all transfers.
