Description
Creating commission settlement (SC) in collective processing
Selection screen:
The fields 'Purchasing organization' and 'Settlement date to' arerequired fields; you can either specify the latter directly or assettlement lead time (number of days to be added to the current date).
The remaining fields (apart from the 'Test run' indicator) are used torestrict the selections for the order items. The test run does notgenerate any documents but simply checks the consistency of the data.
Procedure:
Collective processing first selects all settlement indices according toyour selection criteria. Each settlement index represents an order itemfor which settlement is to be performed within a certain period. Theorder data is imported for each settlement index and updated accordingto the settlements. The settlement index for the next period is createdat the same time (renewal commission).
Collective processing for settlement generates a log listing the numberof settlements created and any errors that occurred.
Menu path for log:
Logistics - Media sales and distribution - Settlement - Commission -Service company billing - Logs - Collective processing
CAUTION:

• Settlement is performed for all settlements up to the 'Settlement to'
date, including missing periods (renewal). Settlement indices aresimulated.

• Collective processing only creates IS-M/SD settlement documents. The
settlement amounts cannot be viewed in Accounting (see transfer toFinancial Accounting).
Note: Pricing and account determination are performed duringsettlement.
