Interest Indicator
This question is answered
Hi All
I configured the interest indicator Z1 to calculate the interest in F.26 ...
it all works fine, however, the requirement is that the interest amount is calculated based on the transaction
currency - since we have multiple currency amounts that get entered..
Is this possible at all

Check transaction OBV1.
For business transaction 1000 we

have + in interest indicator, company
code and business area. Assuming
you can assign specific ones here if
you want to
Following details on this business

transaction:
Debit 01 1000 Customer posting
Credit 50 0001 Interest received
Then click on accounts at the top of

the screen, give your chart of accounts
and continue.
Here you should have account

symbols.
In our case account symbol 1000 has

a + for currency and a + for G/L Acct
and for account symbol 0001 we have
a + for currency and the G/L Acct
641600 (which is our account for
interest). Same account is also
specified for account symbol 0002
which is used for "interest paid" in
business transaction 2000.
In this one we have the same main

settings as above for interest, cc and
ba and in the debit/credit settings:
Debit 40 0002 Interest paid
Credit 16 1000 Customer posting
Hope this helps
//Jan Pettersson
Edit: Under button "Symbols" we have

these entries:
0001 Interest received
0002 Interest paid
1000 Customer posting

Dear,
please have a look at the note number 709999 that says:
Symptom
You carry out a balance interest calculation on a customer,

vendor or
G/L account. The interest letter and the created posting are
always
created in local currency even though the account was also

posted to in
other currencies.
Other terms
RFDZSI00. RFKZIS00, RFSZIS00
F.26, F.44, F.52
Reason and Prerequisites
Solution
This is not caused by any error: The programs for the account
balance
interest calculation work exclusively in local currency.
If you want to calculate interest on customer or vendor accounts

in
document currency, use the item interest calculation.
I hope this can help You.

Dear Rukshana,
You did well.
As the note states:
This is not caused by any error: The programs for the account
balance
interest calculation work exclusively in local currency.
this means that the Standard report works and calcultes interest
in local currency only.
I'm sorry but this is a SAP Standard Design that cannot be

changed.
Have a nice day.

Hi Mauri
Thanks again for the prompt and very informative response...
So the answer is an absolute NO if the customer requests the Interest calculation to be in

Document currency and at item level detail for the customer...
Have i understood it correctly - just want to be absolutely certain before i give the answer..
thank you so very much

We calculate interest on item level using transaction FINT and send interest invoices
based on this, it works in document currency.
Edit: We have ECC 6.0 if that makes any difference compared to R/3.

Depends on how your interest indiciator is configured today?
Otherwise things to consider is:
Interest indicator needs to be maintained in customer master data
Customer needs to have items that qualify based on your interest indicator preferences
Otherwise the FINT is quite self explaining when it comes to entries. Usually the mistake is
the two above

Hello again
Yes I have done what all you suggested and I still do get the below error message:
No time-dependent conditions for Z3/EUR/Debit Int. Rate/from 26.09.2009
I cant understand why its doing that -
i have created a new Libor rate with the currency SEK, and created my interest indicator
as P to allocate for item interest, then I have also assigned Z3 to the new LIBOR rate....
but even then i get the same error when i do FINT
thank you for the support

Dear Rukshana,
check again that into transaction OB81You defined:
Z3 EUR 01.01.2009 1 Debit interest: arrears interest calc. 0,00
Z3 EUR 01.01.2009 2 Credit interest: arrears interest calc. 0,00
AND NOT
Z3 EUR 01.01.2009 1 Credit interest: balance interest calc. 0,00
Z3 EUR 01.01.2009 2 Credit interest: balance interest calc. 0,00
Because You have to insert ARREARS and not BALANCE.
Please let me know.

Hi Guys
I somehow managed to get the interest on items working and now the requirment has
changed to be that irrespective of transaction currency - the calculation of interest should
be on the Customer currency -
Is this possible - can you please guide me as to how to get this done ....
It is highly critical ..
Thanks much

Dear Rukshana,
jan is right. Usually the reason for the error message is that for
your
Chart of Accounts there is no Account Symbol 1000 maintained.
If you compare with Chart of Accounts "INT", you will see the
entry
missing.
Please maintain it accordingly by transaction OBV1 and test

again.
You have to create the account symbol 1000 in your chart of

accounts.
If you need that the posting is done to the customer account,

then you
should create an entry as follows:
Acct symbol Currency G/L account
1000 + +
When you call transaction OBV1 and select Accounts button,
you will see that, for each account symbol, there must be a G/L
account
associated with that.
Message F8 107 says that:
The account symbol could not be replaced by a G/L account.
The possible reasons for that:
1) You have not associated a G/L account to the symbol
2) You have associated a general account with a mask, for

example
12345*, then a replacement rule will take place: system will try
to
find the respective G/L account that starts with 12345 and has
one more
digit. If system is not able to find this G/L, the message above is
displayed
I hope this helps.

Hi!
Sorry, I can't help there. We're just implementing SD and sales data on our customers
(they have been FICO only up until now), so it hasn't been relevant with anything but
transaction currency.
