System Response

Function enhancements for German garnishments:
Previously, the repayment sequence within garnishments was fixed. The
order used corresponded to ?11 Par. 3 VerbrKrG (costs, debt, interest).
Now you can decide between ?11 Par. 3 VerbrKrG (costs, debt, interest)
and ?367 Par. 1 BGB (costs, interest, debt).
In master data, the infotype 0112 (garnishment requirements) was
enhanced for the repayment sequence field. For this reason, you must
assign the current valid value in the repayment sequence field for
existing garnishments, for the previously used sequence.
