The Allocate Revenue Per Period activity is used for period allocation of revenues for a customer invoice. Allocation is used for distributing revenues among several periods. The allocation takes place in Voucher Entry in IFS/Accounting Rules by using the operation Periodical Allocation.
The invoice must be posted and a voucher created. The operation can only be executed if the voucher is not updated to the General Ledger.
The updating routine creates a voucher for each period, voucher type group X. The posting type GP2 - Accrued Revenues/Costs controls the account to be used as a contra account.
