Dear SAP Financials Folks,
I am currently working on an interest rate indicator change. I have an indicator say Z1 which is already set up with a rate of 1%. My requirement is to change this rate from 1% to 1.25% effective from 12/01/2015.
The business runs the FINT program for interest rate postings on a weekly basis to post interest amounts on existing balances. I have an option to change interest rate in the same indicator Z1 and set a new validity date effective from 12/01/2015 for Z1. However, since this is part of change release, the transports will move to production only by 01/31/2016. My question is as follows:
1) Since the business will run FINT weekly for interest rate postings, the interest will be posted @ 1%. Is there a way to post the differential amounts (for 0.25% effective 12/01/2015 until 01/31/2016) for all the earlier documents?
When I checked in FINT, the system only considers to post the interest at new rate only for those document for which interests are not posted previously.
2) If I set up a new interest rate indicator Z2 for 1.5% and make it effective from 12/01/2015, when I run the same on 02/01/2016, this can end up posting another set of interest postings for 1.25% (while original Z1 is running weekly for all the documents until 01/31/2016).
How can I achieve my requirement to post differential interest amounts (0.25%) for all documents from 12/01/2015.
Does SAP only suggest us to make these changes immediately in Production so the interest runs are effective from date of change in Production?
