Resolution

Flexible Billing Document Posting can be used to meet this requirement.

With flexible billing document posting, the system can evaluate billing document attributes (specific header fields of the billing document to be posted, including custom fields added via extensibility) to dynamically do the following:

when a billing document is posted to financial accounting.

when a billing document is created.

(For these two use cases blocking of automatically posted to financial accounting occurs)

Each of these use cases is represented by a corresponding usage task of the CPF formula.

Determine the type of the resulting journal entry (that is, the resulting accounting document) Determine values for specific fields of the resulting journal entry. Determine specific account determination procedures for reconciliation accounts and cash settlement accounts to which the billing document is to be posted
