Convergent Invoicing
Additional Information
The billable item specifies a reason for requesting the cash security deposit. Billing updates the reason for request in the billing document items. Invoicing then
creates a cash security deposit request in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable for the corresponding billing document items. The start date and return date
for the cash security deposit are defined by the start and end of the period for the items.
When you execute the invoicing function Create Cash Security Deposit (SECURITY_CRT), you can also define which cash security deposits are to be created
in invoicing for the contract account to be invoiced.
Use the function module recorded for event 2624 to transfer information about the cash security deposit. You can define whether one or more cash security
deposits are to be created for a contract account or make a distinction by contract. The cash security deposit can be paid for during invoicing. A down payment is
created as a security retention amount here.

Additional Details
If you send data to external cash desk services using SAP Exchange Infrastructure (XI), the system posts FI-CA documents in individual processes when XI
messages are processed. Individual processing uses just one number range and one reconciliation key for the posting. To ensure this, the system sets database
locks both on the number range table NRIV and on table DFKKSUMC for the reconciliation keys. This can have a negative effect on performance if parallel
processing is used.
If you set the Optimization Active indicator in Customizing:
The system assigns a separate number range to each process for the posting of FI-CA documents.
Posting takes place as before using individual processing.
The system posts each process on a separate reconciliation key.
The system creates as many reconciliation keys as there are processes posting in parallel.

to Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA). The posting in FI-CA takes place in individual processing. Individual processing uses just one number
range and one reconciliation key for the posting. To ensure this, the system sets database locks both on the number range table NRIV and on table DFKKSUMC for
the reconciliation keys. During parallel processing, the database lock causes runtime problems.
If you set the Optimization Active indicator in Customizing:
The system assigns a separate number range to each process for the posting of documents in Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable.
Posting takes place as before using individual processing.
The system posts each process on a separate reconciliation key.
The system creates as many reconciliation keys as there are processes posting in parallel.
This results in an improved runtime.
Note
Make sure that you create a sufficient number of parallel number ranges for individual processing for the document types that you have entered for integration

Additional Details
For accounting reasons, it can be necessary to post certain deferred revenues in the current period despite a posting date in the future. To do so, set the Use
Fixed Alternative Posting Date in FPDR indicator in even 1142. The system then displays the Always Use Alternative Posting Date indicator in the transaction
for transferring deferred revenue FPDR. If you set this indicator and enter a transfer date, the system uses this alternative posting date not only for the triggers for
deferred revenue with a posting date in a closed posting period, but also for all transfers.
