Commitments

The recovery of the commitments is carried out per company and for a given fiscal year. It is possible to limit the selection of the entries to process to a specific site.

On utility launch, the following controls are performed:

• existence of the commitment header [CMM] and detail line [CMD] data in the database files.
• consistency control of the header and line data.

In particular, the controls and resynchronizations (if the option is selected) are as follows:

• In the commitment header GCOMMIT [CMM]
• If the currency does not exist, the currency used is that of the company.
• If the exchange rate between the 'company currency' and the 'transaction currency' is not equal to 1 even though these are identical, the exchange rate is automatically set to 1.
• If the 'amount in local currency' resulting from the conversion between the 'transaction currency' and the 'local (or reporting) currency' and the exchange rate is greater or less than +/-5%, the exchange rate is reinitialized with regards to the accounting date of the entry, and the amounts are recalculated.

• On the commitment lines GCOMMITD [CMD]
• If the line date is different from the entry date, a warning message is displayed in the file to signal this difference.
• If the account does not exist, the field is initialized with the default account defined in the ACCDEF accounting parameter value.
• If the nature does not exist, the field is initialized with the account nature.  
• If a dimension does not exist, the field is initialized with the default dimension of the nature.
