Accruals
You may plan costs for marketing projects, like e.g. coupon redemption costs, printing costs, etc. which take place in a defined time frame.
According to accounting standards, these costs are typically to be accounted for in the defined time frame.
However, the corresponding actual costs may occur at different points in time.
Therefore these costs have to be accrued.• The accrued amount is relevant for the profit and loss statement.
• Accruals can be calculated using transaction RSMRM_ACCR (in BI System).
The calculation of accruals is used to distribute planned marketing spends to the correct expense period.
