The request is usually generated when a Business Partner is moved in.
The security deposit requests are at the contract level.
Always creation of the security deposit is a manual process which triggers a security deposit request transaction, for mass creation you can develop a custom program to trigger this transaction.

1. 2.       Receipt of Security Deposits

There is no financial transaction taking place in case of a Non Cash Security Deposit.
Cash Security Deposit paid by customer to the Company will be shown as a protected credit item in Business Partner account.
Cash Security Deposit once realized can’t be set-off against any other open item in customer ledger, during the account maintenance or payments made (Down Payment Concept).
The security deposit should have to be released from down payments first to set off against any other open item.

Instalment payment plan for security deposits is allowed based on certain criteria & can be customized as per requirements.

Base T-Code (Cash): FP05 / FP25 / FPCJ
 (After Receipt status would change to PAID)




Base T-Code (Non-Cash): FPSEC2

 

(After Realization Status would change to RECEIVED)

1. 3.       Enhancement / Revision of Security Deposits:-

Security Deposit can be revised based on
Consumption history
Request for change of plan type
Revision of gas price

1. 4.       Interest on Security Deposits:-

Interest on Cash security deposits can be calculated based on Interest Key.
The calculated interest is credited to the Business partner account till the date of release the security deposit (If released).

Base T-Code-1: FPI2



Base T-Code-2: FPINTM2

1. 5.       TDS on Interest paid for Cash Security Deposits:-

FICA : BPC-1. Account Determination

This deals with the “Account Determination ID” that is used to determine the Main Transaction and Sub transaction – relevant account assignment data. It is determined from the master data of the contract account to which the business partner item is posted. It separate the set of GL’s for Receivable and Revenue Income for each type of customers.

* System automatically maps the Account Determination IDs for different types of Business partners.
* System automatically determines the respective GL accounts based on the Business Partner type.

Terms Involved:
Account Determination ID:-
It is a combination of main and sub-transactions in SAP FICA.
The main transaction controls the determination of receivables and payable accounts.
The Sub-transactions controls the determination of revenue accounts.
The determination of receivables accounts which are to be posted depends on the different

1. Company codes,
2. Division (Gas/ Power/ Water),
3. Account determination ID and
4. Main transaction.
5. GL Account.

Configurations:

Following are the configurations related to account determination:-

• Define Main Transactions

• Define Sub-Transactions

• Assign Main transactions with GL account in EK01

• Assign Sub-transactions with GL account in EK02

• Define Document types for SD

• Derive Main/Sub-Transaction from SD information

• Define postings to FI-CA for Customer Account Groups

document types, you must assign a separate number range to each document type, for example to invoices or to credit memos.
In the following activities:

• • You define your document number ranges.
• • You can determine which intervals of document number ranges are to be copied from

one company code into another.

• • You can determine which intervals of document number ranges are to be copied from

one fiscal year into another.
In this activity you create number ranges for documents. For each number range you specify
(among other things):

• • a number interval from which document numbers are selected
• • the type of number assignment (internal or external)

You assign one or more document types to each number range. The number range becomes
effective via the document type specified in document entry and posting.

In this activity, you determine under which circumstances fields within posted documents can be changed. For a number of fields, the system itself determines that they can no longer be changed after posting. This includes all fields which are central to the principles of orderly accounting, for example, the amount posted and the account.
The system also prevents the update objects from being changed in documents which have already been posted, independent of the document change rules. Update objects are elements in the system for which transaction figures or line items are updated, for example, business area or cost centers (if cost center accounting is used in the SAP system). Update objects are entered as additional account assignments during posting.

• • the maximum document amount the employee is authorized to post
• • the maximum amount the employee can enter as a line item in a customer or vendor

account

• • the maximum cash discount percentage the employee can grant in a line item
• • the maximum acceptable tolerance for payment differences for the employee.

Payment differences are posted automatically within certain tolerance groups. This way the system can post the difference by correcting the cash discount or by posting to a separate expense or revenue
account.
In this respect you define:

• • the amounts or percentage rates up to which the system is to automatically post to a separate expense or revenue account if it is not possible to correct the cash discount or

• • up to which difference amounts the system is to correct the cash discount. In this case the cash discount is automatically increased or decreased by the difference. using tolerance groups.

You can also additionally differentiate these settings by company code. Since the same rules usually apply to a group of employees, enter the values for employee groups. You can then enter amount limits and tolerances per employee group and company code.
