Clearing variant to select items based on payment date +/- a number of days

[Former Member]

We have a clearing variant configured for a simple process where the single step clearing is done on the basis of oldest invoice cleared first.  We want to change this so that the same rule is applied but only invoices within a certain number of days of the payment are considered.  This can be done using clearing rule 8 and a customer module (based on FKK_SAMPLE_TFK115) which deselects items with incompatible due dates but I wonder if this is possible without creating a customer module.

Has anyone implemented anything similar without the need for a customer module?

Paul:

That requirement would need a customer module - either as you have mentioned, or by deining a new characteristic and the associated function module.

Thanks Bill,

I hadn't thought of doing it via the characteristic route.  May have a look at that to compare the two solutions.
