Implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central On-Premise - Fourth Edition

Deferrals

If you have revenues or expenses that are recognized over a period of time, you can now use deferral posting. You may use functionality to automatically defer revenues and expenses over a specified schedule.

To distribute revenues or expenses across the accounting periods involved, you have to set up a deferral template for the resource, item, or G/L account that the revenue or expense will be posted for. 

When you post the related sales or purchase document, the revenue or expense is deferred to the accounting periods involved, according to a deferral schedule that is governed by settings in the deferral template and the posting date.
