Create Period Allocation Information - IL
Explanation
Use this activity to create period allocation information per voucher line. The voucher must be saved in
Internal
Voucher Entry before you can enter accrual information. The updating
routine creates a voucher for each specified period. If the source voucher's
period is included in the allocated period range, a voucher can be created for
the base period as well. The parameters specified in the
GL Update Parameters window will determine
whether or not a voucher will be created for the base period. The posting
type GP2 (Accrued cost) controls the account to be used as a contra account.
Prerequisites
Before creating periodic allocation information the following must have been
completed:
- The voucher must exist in the internal ledger hold table.
- If a voucher should be created for the source
voucher's period, the Yes option should be selected in the Period
Allocation Voucher for Base Period field in the
GL Update Parameters window. If a voucher should not be
created for the source voucher's period, the No option should be
selected in this field.
System Effects
As a result of this activity a periodical allocation voucher is created for each
specified period and placed in the internal ledger hold table.
