Financial collection
Planon collects financials based on orders and space usages in the financial collection automatically via batch processes, or manually via an action on the lay-out.
The financial collection can be used to collect costs (or revenue) from various BOs in Planon, and for REM4SAP it is currently set-up for the link to orders and to space usages. A jump can be configured to jump from the cost source to the financial collection and from the financial collection back to the cost source.
When the financial collection is initiated, it registers them in the status New. When a scheduled task is activated and scheduled, the financial collection is updated to Sent and Confirmed. If it was not possible to send it to SAP, it stores Failed which will lead to new attempts based on the scheduled task's schedule. When a financial collection is updated via the order, the status changes to Updated and then to Confirmed or Failed.
For orders, the financial collection collects order lines, order costs and order hours as separated lines in the financial collection lines automatically.
For the accounting objects, a detailed determination takes place to find the right cost center from / to or project controlling object from / to. Also the company and dates are automatically derived.
The financial collection is replicated in SAP as an accounting notification, which has a header and items. Each accounting notification has a reference back to the Original document which re-directs to Planon via a jump. The accounting notifications are posted as journal entries automatically, making them visible on integrated reports such as the lease and real estate review booklet.
