Features

Input Help

The input help in the prenote creation dialog lists the prenote types that you specified in the Customizing activity Define Prenote Types.

Available Amount

If you have specified that the prenote is relevant for the available amount in the Customizing activity Define Prenote Types, the system includes the prenote amount in the calculation of the available amount for the related account, unless the prenote has expired.

Checks

When you save your data, the system checks the prenote for formal and material errors, even if you selected Check (Check). You can force material checks, if required. If the checks do not find any errors, the prenote receives the Active status. If, however, the prenote has to be released, it receives the status In Release, Change - In Release, or Deletion - In Release.

Once the release process is complete, the system changes the prenote status to Active. Depending on whether the release user accepts or rejects the change, the system either assigns the prenote with a new and active version or it resets the prenote to its previous status respectively.

For more information about the checks, see Formal and Material Checks.

Activities

You can create prenotes from the account screen, in the prenote transaction (on the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Start of the navigation path Accounting Next navigation step Bank Applications Next navigation step Bank Customer Accounts Next navigation step Account Management Next navigation step Prenote Next navigation step Create End of the navigation path) or by using the BAPI mentioned above.

You must enter the following:

  • Bank area

  • Account number

  • Prenote type

  • Amount

  • Prenote reference number (up to 40 characters)

  • Valid-to date

After you save the prenote, you can view the status of the checks on the Administration tab page.
