Purpose
Because retroactive conditions mean that revenue data may not becurrent, these conditions and their agreements are excluded fromprocessing in the rebate due list. Agreements of this kind cannot besettled, for example. To update revenue, all potential extracts must be reprocessed and therevenue is then adapted accordingly. When all the extracts in an agreement have been processed successfully,the flag is removed so that the agreement can be settled again. In a standard system setup, these agreements will not be consideredduring the next run. You can tell that an agreement has been flagged as changed, becausemessage BEA_R1115 (agreement contains retroactive conditions) appearswhen you process the corresponding billing due list. Integration Prerequisites Features Selection Here, you can preset the posting date for document corrections. Thisdate is used for forwarding to Financial Accounting (FI), among otherthings.. When this option is selected, the system writes errors arising duringprocessing to an error log. When this option is selected, all changes are logged and issued as alist at the end of processing. This list is also created duringsimulation. This parameter allows you to control whether the program only considersextracts of agreements that contain retroactive conditions. Usually,this parameter shuld be activated, becaue restricting the program tochanged agreements improves runtime. This paramter should only bedeactivated if rebate-relevant changes are made outside of agreementmaintenance. These include: Rebate relevance Formulae/conditions for rebate condition types Condition type Coding (e.g. in BAdI implementations) In each case, if you have deactivated the 'retroactive agreements'paramter, you should try to restrict the agreements to be considered asmuch as possible, to avoid very long runtimes. You should also remember that with other changes, the extract referencesneed to be recreated, because these are used to determine the relevantextracts. To redetermine the extract references for affected documents,you must process the extracts again. Changes that requireredetermination of the extract references are any changes that affectaccess to conditions in the pricing procedure, e.g. Adding/removing rebate condition types in the pricing procedure Access sequences Adding/changing/deleting accesses Requirements Coding changes that affect filling of access fields When this parameter is activated, the program does not update changes tothe extracts and it does not create accounting documents.
