Financial Collection
Planon collects Financials based on Orders in the Financial Collection automatically via a batch process, or manually via an action on the Order-level.
The Financial Collection can be used to collect costs (or revenue) from various BOs in Planon, but for REM4SAP it is currently only set-up for the link to Orders. A Jump can be configured to jump from the Order to the Financial Collection and from the Financial Collection back to the Order.
When the Financial Collection is initiated, it registers them in the status 'New'. When a Scheduled tasks 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 'Send' and 'Confirmed' or 'Failed'.
Planon collects Order Costs and Order Hours as separated lines in the Financial Collection Lines automatically via a batch process and links it to the Financial Collection. The Financial Collection Lines can be used to collect cost (or revenues) from various BOs in Planon, but it is currently only set up for the link to Order cost sources: OrderLineCosts, OrderHours and ManualCosts.
For the Accounting Objects, a detailed determination takes place to find the right CostCenter From/To or ProjectControllingobject 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.
