Event:
The frequency of accrual postings is customized to By Posting Period. As a consequence, the Accrual Engine splits the lifetime into intervals of dates which correspond to the first and last day of the fiscal periods. Afterwards it uses for each such interval the last day of each period as key date for the calculation of the accrual amounts. This will be the result:

Hello Camile.
Thanks for your articles here. They are very elucidative and help me understanding this functionality.
I am having an issue that I want to share to see if you can help me.
I run SAP Cloud, and I customized the Accrual Item Type as
SACCRL with method SPLN-ACT
SCSTPLN with method PLN_DSNVGR
SCSTACT with method SACT-COSTS
When I create a PO with a single account assignment to a cost center and I post a Non valuated Goods receipt. After run job "Propose Period Ammounts" the system determines the planned cost as the quantity received * net price as expected on the accrual object (1 subobject)
But if my PO has Multiple Account assignment to for instance 2 costs centers (50% each), and I post a Goods receipt. After run job "Propose Period Ammounts" the system does not determine value for the planned cost. It considers 2 subobjects (one for each cost center) but the planned cost is zero.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks.
Hi Suporte,
If you post the non-valuated GR, then the planned costs are decided from non-valuated GR.
Best regards,
Camile
Thank you for your awesome post!!! Can you pls advice why our actual cost calculation for valuated gr scenario could be wrong?
