• Message class: FARR_INFLIGHT_CHECK -

• Message number: 045

• Message text: C17: Incorrect cumulated amount on deferral items for POB &1 contract &2

What causes this issue?

The sum of the revenue quantity delta column on the deferral items in
previous periods for this performance obligation is not consistent with
the posted revenue quantity in the current period.
This can lead to inconsistent records in table FARR_D_DEFITEM.
To determine the correct handling of the revenue quantity posted and the
revenue quantity planned this check sums up the column REV_QTY_DELTA
for all previous periods . The result is then compared to the value of
the posted revenue quantity REV_QTY_POSTED and the splitout quantity
PRO_QTY_CUMULATE in the current period.
This check is performed to the current period and all future periods in
which deferral items exists.
The example bellow illustrates the logic of this check. (It is assumed,
that the current fiscal year is 2018 and the open period is 004.
Furthermore a prospective splitout was performed in period 2018003.)
RECON_KEY,,POB_ID,,CONDITION_TYPE,,REV_QTY_DELTA,,REV_QTY_POSTED,,
PRO_QTY_CUMULATE
2018001001,,POB1,,PR00,,1,,0,,0
2018002001,,POB1,,PR00,,1,,1,,0
2018003001,,POB1,,PR00,,1,,0,,2
2018004001,,POB1,,PR00,,1,,1,,2
2018005001,,POB1,,PR00,,1,,<ZK>3</>,,2
The sum of the revenue quantity in previous periods is 3. In the current
period the revenue posted is 1 and the prospective splitout amount is 2.
No inflight check C17 error is raised.
During the check in the future period 2018/005 an inflight check C17
error is raised. This is due to the incorrect revenue quantity posted
value in column REV_QTY_POSTED. The sum of the revenue amount for
posting in previeous periods is 4. The revenue posted and the
prospective splitout amount add up to 5.
