In various booking screens, you will find the option to post an invoice accrual. If they have not been switched off in the settings of the booking screen, they are either permanently visible or optionally accessible via the "Further actions" menu (three dots).
In this way, you can defer your expenses (ARAP) or corresponding revenues (PRAP) and reverse them by means of a recurring entry. This is not only an obligation when preparing a balance sheet and performance period beyond the balance sheet date (PRAP), your reports will also be more meaningful if you are only accruing during the year.
An insurance invoice for the coming year (2024/11 - 2025/10) serves as an example here.
First select the type of accrual (ARAP) and then determine the other parameters.
You can store the expense account as an accrual contra account in the G/L account master or assign it manually here.
Accrual against an account with a fixed tax key is not recommended as the tax is not accrued. In this case, you should use a different expense account (without a tax key).
When journalizing the posting (1), Scopevisio also posts the entire amount to the expense account (2) via the accrual account and creates an automatic recurring entry plan based on the parameters, which reverses the ARAP.
This immediately triggers the reversal postings - even for times that have already been exceeded (3).
We recommend marking the selected ARAP or PRAP account as reconcilable and carrying out a regular G/L account reconciliation.
