Product type 04I - subledger flows - how do I post?

Question

Hi All
I am able to set up a fixed interest bond after I set up the security class & the security account for it.  I see that the conditions specified in the class determines the subledger position indicator & te security account position indicator.  But I do not see these flows in the 04I instrument's cash flow tab.  I tried to post TBB1 & only the 0100 & 0870 flows are getting posted. 
I tried TPM44 but it says accrual is not configured for the product type which is right as I do not see any accrual config for securities. 
My main question then is how do I get the subledger position flows to post?  Second question is, is accrual relevant to securities?  If yes, how do I set that up?
Thanks

Hi Morgan,
--- question #1 - Posting of Securities flows.
Short intro - in case of Securities, only Purchase/ Sale/ Issue/ Redemption flows are treated as transactional and therefore are visible in the tab 'Cash flows'. All the cash flows, relevant to certain Security Class, can be visible by selecting respective icon 'Position cash flows', where you have at least 2 choices: Security account class (only physical payment flows, like placement, nominal interests payments, repayment, etc.) and Valuation Area dependent flows (physical payment flows and also all kind of valuation flows, like interest accrual, FX valuation if relevant, etc.). For posting of so called transactional flows you should use TBB1, while for other flows, like (interest) payments and final repayments, you should use FWSO;
--- question #2 - is accrual relevant to securities?
it actually depends what kind of Position management procedure is used for certain Securities Product type. If you need to use interest accrual, you should:
check if exist/ define relevant Update types: IMG -> ... Treasury and Risk Management -> Transaction Manager -> General Settings -> Organization -> Accounting -> Accrual/Deferral -> Update Types -> Define Update Types and Assign Usages;
assign accrual relevant Update types per Product category/ product type: IMG -> ... Treasury and Risk Management -> Transaction Manager -> General Settings -> Organization -> Accounting -> Accrual/Deferral -> Update Types -> Assign Update Types for Accrual/Deferral.
hope this will help you.
