Lease payment posted on contract valuation

Hi All,

while carrying out valuation for migrated lease assets, the first payment clearing posting is also generated in the contract valuation, i want this to be generated at the month end along with the interest posting. How to achieve this such that only ROU and lease liability are recognized in the initial valuation run 

 

Regards,

Charmaine

Hello Charmaine,

This is a good question. The key field here is the frequency term. In the lease contract you can specify the frequency of payments to the lessor by assigning a frequency to the condition Lease. In the frequency you can specify that the payment should be made "In arrears" which is the last day of the period. If the condition is an "Actual" condition it means that payments to the lessor are done at the end of the period as well. Should this not be the case then this is not a solution. If the condition is statistical it is the appropriate solution. The clearing cash flow follows the frequency term assigned to the condition and will then also be the end of the period.

The other cash flow items in the valuation rule can receive a different specific frequency term. For example if the frequency is one invoice per quarter the frequency term of the valuation rule must be monthly to post the correct interest and depreciation.

Now you can select the due date in the valuation posting transaction. If this is the first day of the period it will select the asset and liability posting. In the second run you select the last day of the period and you will post the clearing and interest.

If this is not a solution because you must pay the lessor at a different time and you use the "Actual" condition purpose then you must use a BAdI to overrule the due date when posting. If you change the due date in the cash flow of the condition it immediately changes the due date in the valuation cash flow of the clearing posting as well.

I hope this helps you further.
