The interest indicator must belong to the interest calculation type "balance interest calculation".
Interest calculation frequency
In this field you enter a number of months, which determines how often the interest calculation program is to be run. However, it is only necessary to
make an entry in this field if you are planning to have the system determine the interest calculation period automatically. The interest calculation
period always refers to the field Key date of last int.calc. You can also define an interest calculation frequency under an interest indicator. However,
the entry in the master record has higher priority.
Key date of last int.calc. (interest calculation)
After the interest calculation program has been run in the background, it enters in this field the upper limit of the interest calculation period. This date
is used by the system to automatically determine the interest calculation period for an account.
Date of last int.calc. run
In this field the report enters the CPU date of the last balance interest calculation run. This information is necessary in order to determine whether
interest must be calculated for items with a value date in the past. These are items which are posted to a period for which interest has already been
calculated. You can find more information on this special case in the program documentation.
All accounts that you want to be included in the interest calculation run must have an entry in the field Interest indicator in their master record. If you
want to block an account for interest calculation, you should remove the interest indicator.
To find out more about changing or displaying master records, see
Functions for Editing G/L Account Master Records.

For some of your accounts you run the interest calculation program every month; for others every three months. This can easily lead to overlaps if
you enter the calculation periods manually.
If you want the interest calculation period to be determined automatically, you must carry out the following steps in the system:
You must enter the interest calculation period. The program needs this information in order to determine whether an account is to be included in this interest
calculation run or not until the next run.
The field Key date of last int.calc in the account master record must have an entry. You can have the batch input make the entry in this field using the
upper limit of the last interest calculation run, or you can enter it manually.
There must also be an interest calculation frequency specified in the master record, providing this has to be determined per account. As an alternative, you
can define this frequency under the interest indicator. However, the entry in the master record has higher priority.
You must have entered an interest calculation day under the interest indicator. For example, if you always want to run the interest calculation program on the
15th of the month, enter this date. However, if you want the run to be on the last day of every month, enter 31.
The system uses this data to determine the upper and lower limit of the interest calculation period.
It does so in the following way: The program adds one day to the data in the field Key date of last int.calc . and uses the result as the
lower limit for the interest calculation period.
The
upper limit is determined as follows:
The program determines the month by adding the interest calculation interval (frequency), which you have defined in the system, to the month of the abovementioned key date.

The program determines the day by using the interest calculation date defined in the system.
The system has determined 8/31/94 as the upper limit for this account. If you are calculating interest for the period 7/1/94 to 8/15/94, the account is
ignored. However, if your calculation is for the period 7/1/94 to 9/1/94, the account is included.
