Additional Amount

The definition of the 'Additional Amount' can be found in the DOKA-NG User Documentation. The additional amount is supported in the following DOKA business sectors:

Basics

Always Contract Currency

The additional amount in DOKA is always available in the contract currency. If the additional amount is specified in another currency in the L/C, the user has to convert it to the contract currency.

Panel 'Additional Amount'

In order to ensure a consistent handling of the additional amount, the module AAMP is linked to the business sectors mentioned above.

The transaction panel 'Additional Amount' is controlled via the checkbox 'Add. Amount', each located on the overview panel (xxxP) of the business sectors. If the checkbox is checked or the field 'Covered' is not empty, the panel 'Additional Amount' will be displayed.

The panel contains the following fields:

Info System

The panel 'Additional Amount' is displayed in the relevant Info transaction (INFxxx), if an additional amount is available for the selected contract.

Drawn Additional Amount

In the transactions that create sub-contracts and in other transactions for advising documents or document payment there is an additional field (currency and amount) for the 'Drawn Additional Amount'. This field is only enabled, if the amount field for the additional amount of the main contract is not empty. The field is located on the panels below the document value.

Amounts/Liabilities

The amount (MAX2/OPN2) is required for Amounts/Liabilities to determine the total additional amount and how much is still available. There is an open amount for the additional amount, in order to check in sub-contracts, whether the documents are to be sent to payment authorization because the open additional amount has been exceeded.

For the internal Amounts/Liabilities and the liability bookings in the business sectors always the maximum amount is used ('the highest risk').

Example: Export L/C (analog for the other sectors)

L/C in the amount of EUR 100.000,00 (Nominal Amount) +/- 10 percent tolerance plus EUR 800,00 additional amount

In the liability EUR 110.800,00 (as INT, res. AVL) will be booked for this contract.
