Hi,

The second column (field SAKN2) use to be used for provison acc., for instance, to accounting the provisions for rebates before the settlement for each invoice.

I hope this helps you

The alternative account is mainly used for Accruals processing.

You can assign a special account key for Accruals in pricing procedure against the condition type (aside of 'standard' account key). If that is assigned, then also the additional G/L account is posted based on the value from given condition.

If you don't have accruals requirements, then you can leave this blank.

Hi Sumanth,

The two G/L accounts are used for immediate and later postings, the first one is used for revenue, discounts and the second one is for accruals.

Thanks
