Hi Shantanu Singh,

Service Charge Settlement - Purpose :

This component contains the functions for settling all service charges for Real Estate contracts and rental objects that have already been entered in financial accounting and cost accounting:

·  Settlement of operating costs and heating expenses

·  Settlement of heating expenses monitored by external settlement companies (over data medium exchange)

The main usage of Service charge settlement is :

You use this component to distribute apportionable costs to tenants for a particular settlement period, using individual control mechanisms:

Example :water bills / electricity charges / gas charges ....etc we may charge based on the consumption only, according to the meter readings we will charge to customers periodically.

The below links may help you to have a basic understanding on SERVICE CHARGE SETTLEMENT process.

Your second question answer is : Yes, you can adjuset the advance PAYMENT aginst the service charges, no problem, you can adjust through manually ( T-code : F-53 for vendors / F-28 for customers)

Also through automatic payment program we can do the same ( T-code - F110 ).

Hope it may helps you to get an idea on the same, pls revert if need any more clarificatins.

Hi Subbarao

Please let me know that if we have already posted cost to tenant through rerapp. then what is the use of distributing cost again to tenants.

we are using different contracts for each customer and cost are posted to them through rerapp.

My confusion is why to distribute costs after posting.?

similarly why to distribute costs to objects?

Hi Shantanu,

While doing RERAPP your invoice only getting posted ( not payments), while ruuning F-28 only your payment transaction with customer is getting posted.
