Transaction time fence

If a purchase schedule is generated for an external business partner, logistic agreements are defaulted from the Purchase Contract Line Logistic Data (tdpur3102m000) session. In this session, the Transaction Time Fence field determines for which purchase schedule lines financial transactions must be logged. This Transaction Time Fence is defaulted from the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.

The financial postings for sales schedules depend on the Transaction Time Fence in the Items - Sales Business Partner (tdisa0510m000) session.

If the fab period is short, you can minimize the number of financial transactions to save system performance and avoid unnecessary data growth. To do this, set the Transaction Time Fence field to Lines in the Firm Period or Lines in the FAB Period.
