Title
Selection of FI documents for mass deferral

Purpose
This program selects FI documents that can be deferred.
Deferral of a receivable means that the due date of the payment ispostponed to a later period. The prerequisites for using deferrals aredefined by law.

Prerequisites
The deferral refers to an original document (FI document). This FIdocument is part of a posted acceptance request that has not yet beencleared.
Deferrals are posted to a separate G/L account that you define in theCustomizing of Funds Management Government. For furtherinformation, see the work step Define accountdefinition for deferrals.

Features
The deferral request is first stored in the system as a parkeddocument. This must run through an approval procedure like a "normal"acceptance request before it can be posted.
Selection of the desired FI documents
In a deferral transaction, you can either defer an individual FIdocument (single deferral) or several due dates of a subledger account(mass deferral). With the mass deferral, the documents arising from thedeferral are stored in the system with a request number. Unlike massdeferral, the program can store documents without a request number withsingle deferral.
If you enter a document number on the selection screen, then thedeferral is treated like a single deferral.
List of all selected FI documents
When displaying the selected FI documents, there is a differentiationmade between invoice amount and deferral amount (each in local currencyof the company code). The deferral amount specifies the amount to bedeferred for an open item. It is determined by the program as follows:Invoice amount less already existing temporary waivers, remissions,deductions and partial payments.

Enter deferral request
You can branch from the allocated list into the entry transaction fordeferral request by double-clicking the desired document number.
You can dividie the deferral amount into different due dates by, forinstance, copy the document item in the Fast entry and changethe amounts/due dates.
The program transfers default values for HR data and FM accountassignment from the original document into the entry mask of thedeferral request. Other data, like e.g. the CO account assignment orthe number of the earmarked funds document are not transferred. Whentransferring the default values, the program groups together documents,on mass deferral, with the same FM account assignment (and revenuetype) into a document with the total of all individual amounts. Thegrouping together according to FM account assignments has the effectthat documents with several G/L account items and different FM accountassignments are not grouped together, but are transferred as singledocuments. The program only considers foreign currencies if allselected documents show the same foreign currency.
When entering a deferral request, the program can also calculatedeferral interest. For additional information, see the SAP libraryunder IS-Public Sector -> Funds Management Government ->Requests->Deferral requests-> Calculating deferral interest.
Deferral of FI documents from an earlier fiscal year
If the master data of the FM account assignments in the deferral fiscalyear is no longer current, the program determines the current accountassignment and transfers it as default value into the deferral request.The program also writes this account assignment into the FI documentfor the inverse posting.
If you want to defer documents posted in preceding fiscal years andcarried forward into the new fiscal year as part of year-endoperations, then you must note that there are no documents in thedocument selection that were posted in the current fiscal year. If youpost a deferral with "carried forward documents", the program marks theinverse and the posted deferral request as such.
Posting
When posting the deferral request, the program generates inversepostings for the original documents in the amount of the deferral. Tothis end, the program generates a new FI document for the original FIdocument. The due date of the inverse posting corresponds to theposting date of the deferral request.
The program does not automatically execute clearing of the FI document.
If errors arise when posting the deferral, you get a list of allalready posted documents. You have to reverse these documents becauseotherwise inconsistencies may arise. After reversing these documents,you have to post the deferral again.
After the deferral request was posted, the original FI document withthe archiving functions of the component Financial Accounting
can be archived because a relationship between deferred FI documentand deferral document is no longer necessary.
