Advantages using FSCM-CM to classic Credit Management AR/SD

Hi,
I am interested to find out the advantages it has to use the new Credit Mgt under FSCM compared to the one in 46c..
I have read the blurp in the SAP Lib but it is not very clear.
What are the restrictions of the old one?
Can we still use FD32?
Is the update real time?
Do we really need to have XI for the new one?
Thanks in advance
Hein
P.S. Good pints like always will be rewarded

Hi Hein,
i dont know much abt but i am still learning the same at my place we have just upgraded from 4.6 to ecc 6.0 now with ecc you get the patch Dispute mgmt by default where we made dispute cases for the longterm openitems and linked those openitems to the respective cases so that we can keep track of them and some one can take care of these dispute cases...

Use of step release in credit management?

Hi,
Is it possible to use step by step release or release strategy like the one in Purchase Orders to release the blocked sales orders in VKM1/VKM3?
Credit check can be either static or dynamic,
Blocked Orders should go to persons as per the amount to be released in Delegation of Authority.
what functioanlity in credit management can be used to achieve this.
Details of the configuration/step by step advise will be appreciated.
Helpfull answers will be rewarded.
Thanks and Regards

This can be achieved by giving the authorisations to the relevant transactions to the users with different authorisation levels.
Technically in credit management you can assign the creation to one person and change to another person.
But if you want authorisation based on levels say w.r.t amount then you need to do the organisational mapping of the people first and then create a workflow situation. What this will do is based on the different criteria you set it will seek the receiver of the message and download the message in the inbox of the person mapped who will then be able to process it.
For this you need to define workflow containers with receivers and is part of the workflow management.
IN SD plain its not possible but even
if workflow is not execute you could perhaps write an user exit where the system will first check the authorisation level of the user and see if the condition set is fulfilled and allow the person to process the transaction. This way we ca fulfil your requirement.

Credit Management- ,BP with customer

Hello All,
I'm new to Credit management, My concern is how to link my customer account with my BP.
Say example my BP- 1000 is extended for Credit management and have a AR invoice for ABCD customer, How shall i create link between both?
Appreciate your help.
PS: I'm aware of CVI
Regards,
Jain

Dear Jain,
Your idea seems to link SD-customer with BP which has different number from SD-customer .
eg. SD-customer ABCD ==> BP 1000
When FSCM selects BP for credit management, it search for BP which has same number with SD-customer.
eg. SD-customer 1000 ==> BP 1000
This standard logic happens in BAdi definition of 'BADI_SD_CM'.
I guessed that you already activated this BADI
(IMG name >> BAdI: Connection of SD to SAP Credit Management)
My opinion for your requirement is as follows;
If you want to put your own business process into this standard logic,
kindly go to your own BAdi implementation and enhance it
(eg. method: FSCM_GET_ACCOUNT_KEY, FSCM_GET_MASTER_DATA)
More efficient enhancement approach would be welcomed.
Best regards,
Ted

Customer credit management IDOC

Hi,
I am using scenario: if a customer credit management document is changed in R/3. Send the change as an IDOC to CRM. Can you please identify any standard IDOC for customer credit management or I will have to use customer master IDOC DEBMAS (but I do not have DEBMAS idoc type in CRM).
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Faiq

A new Credit Control Area is created in the Configuration menu (IMG - transaction SPRO). Path: Enterprise Structure>Definition>Financial Accounting>Define Credit Control Area.
There are also additional tasks like assigning the Credit Control Area to the Company code........etc.
If you do not have access to the IMG then your SAP support team will be able to do it.
Once created you can do what you need to do as per previous posts.

Using FSCM Credit Management and SD Credit Management in parallel

We are looking to implement FSCM/SAP Receivables Credit Management which will replace SD Credit Management (OVA8, FD32, etc). This will be a phased roll-out by groups of credit control areas. SAP OSS Note 1553999 was created but there is no technical detail on how to enable FSCM for some areas while still continuing to use SD for other areas. For example, we are rolling out by global region, so we would want all existing credit control areas for one region to move over to FSCM while all other regions will continue to use existing SD functionality. Is there some specific BAdI, configuration, or other custom ABAP that needs to take place to achieve this?
Thanks
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
Try through the BADI with the IMG activity UKM_R3_ACTIVATE, you find it in the section "Integration with SD". Check the option of Filter-Dependence for the BADI definiton. It allows you to define filters such as country or line of business
The method that controls the FSCM-CM activation is: "SET_ACTIVE".
I hope that helps

XI and Credit Management in FSCM 6.0

Hello,
We have ERP2005 with FSCM and want to use the Credit Commitment interface ( http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_01/helpdata/en/43/2a1c518e5f601fe10000000a422035/frameset.htm ) to pass FI-AR data to SAP Credit Management via XI. The sender is the FI-AR system and the receiver is the SAP Credit Management system Both FI-AR and FSCM are on the same ERP2005 system and XI is on a seperate system.
I have downloaded the XI content for the the intefaces CreditCommitmentNotification_Out and CreditCommitmentNotification_In and set up the configurartion so messages come out of ERP and the determined receiver is the same ERP system but my problem is with the receiver communication channel. The SAP help link referenced above says I should be using the communication channel XIChannel. Can someone help me and tell me what type of communication channel this is and what I have to do set it up please.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Pete

Felipe,
Thanks for the info it solved the problem and the interface works now. For future reference in case anyone has the same problem the scenario is as follows
Sender                  = ERP (FI module)
Sender interface     = http://sap.com/xi/PI/FIN/Operational/Global
Sender namespace = CreditCommitmentNotification_Out
Receiver = ERP (FSCM)
Receiver interface     = CreditCommitmentNotification_In
Receiver namespace = http://sap.com/xi/FSCM/Global
No interface mapping is required just set up the receiver determination with receiver determination to use a receiver communication channel of type XI.
Thanks,
Pete

DNB integration with FSCM SAP Credit management

Hi,
Any body worked on or integrated DNB with FSCM SAP Credit management ? if it is please share some information /document on integration.
Thx
DD

Hi Ankur
You can integrate with DNB either online or batch mode .
.Online mode
    In this mode, a request is sent from FSCM to DNB for credit data. A response is sent by the DNB synchronously, for the request initiated from FSCM.
    Following was done to implement this. Middle ware (java based) created a web service and in FSCM we created a client proxy to consume the web service.
To initiate the request from FSCM, we called a web service method using a custom program passing the relevant information like agency name, customer name etc.
To call the web service method through the proxy, we had to pass the port name in the proxy call. The URL for the web service was configured in the port (transaction LPCONFIG). Middle ware got the request and in real time passed it to the DNB using integration technique   The DNB sent response back to Middle Ware in real time and Middle ware passed it back to FSCM using the same web service used for the request from FSCM.
. Batch mode -
In this mode, there was no request from FSCM side. Middle ware will aggregate credit data from DNB on periodic basis and dump the data as xml files in FSCM application server. A batch job (custom program) will be    scheduled in FSCM to process the xml files provided by Middle ware and update credit data from agencies in FSCM.
Thanks

Service Interfaces for Credit Management using WS-RM

Hi,
We are implementing FSCM Credit Management on EHP 5 without using PI. For this we are WS-RM and have configured following service interfaces:
CreditCommitmentNotification_In
CreditCommitmentNotification_Out
CreditWorthinessQuery_In
CreditWorthinessQuery_Out
However, when we create sales order, credit check is not being perfomed. Do we need any other service interface for implementing Credit Management?

Hello,
I am using ECC 6 ehp 5 Which Enables you to Implement FSCM services via WS-RM (Web Service Reliable Messaging) instead of having to use Previously PI.
I require to implement the scenario is:
Credit Management (FSCM) and Integration with FICA without requiring PI.
I think I have covered all the technical configuration, but do not know how to test credit management and integration with FI-CA, appreciate if you can do to get a guide.
As indicated by the WSRM configuration guide, run the report SRT_ADMIN_CHECK and the result is:
Cross-checking system settings
bgRFC destination is Operational
bgRFC destination is registered supervisor
WSRM event handler is activated
Task is active watcher
Data collector for monitoring is not activated
ICF All nodes are active for SOAP Runtime
Ending cross-check of system settings
thank you for your help.

Connection between SD and FSCM credit management

Hi expert,
   Right now, i used SAP ERP 6.0 and i want to implement FSCM credit management in the same system.
   I already done for configuration in SPRO-> Integration with Sales and Distribution
                                          implemented the following BADI -> BAdI: Activation of SAP Credit Management
                              BAdI: Fill Line Items for Credit Exposure Update and BAdI: Connection of SD to SAP Credit Management
Once i created sales order via t-code VA01, i got the error message
                            Error in XI: Technical Error
                                   Message no. UKM_PI008
Please kindly advice. I'm not sure we need to set up XI or not and how to set up.
Best Regards,
jenny

Dear Venu,
In Credit management configuration I configured everything but in that I have question related to XI.
For SAP FSCM Credit management do we need to activate XI ??? we have SAP FSCM credit management and FI- AR credit management in same system.
I activated the BAdI which is used to activate the SAP FSCM Credit management, After activating this BAdI i created sales order , after i input sold to party , i got the error message as above message.
Menu path for that BAdI is
SPRO -> Financial Supply Chain Management -> Credit Management -> Integration with Accounts Receivable Accounting and Sales and Distribution -> Integration with Sales and Distribution -> BAdI: Activation of SAP Credit Management
SPRO -> Financial Supply Chain Management -> Credit Management -> Integration with Accounts Receivable Accounting and Sales and Distribution -> Integration with Sales and Distribution -> Customer Enhancements -> BAdI: Connection of SD to SAP Credit Management
If you have any information related to this , please provide it to me .
Best Regards,
Jenny

How to update FSCM Credit Management through SD in R3.

Hi,
    I have a follwowing requirement.
    When SD documents such as Sales orders, Delivery Documents, Billing Documents are created, the commitment of that new transaction goes through the same PI interface to update FSCM Credit Management.
   I guess, SAP has already provided standard interfaces in PI for this. Please let know how can I trigger those interface through SD transactions like VA01, VL01N.
Thanks in advance.
Punit

Punit,
I know about Tcode ukm_bp to check credit eligibility of business partner. Likewise there can be different T codes. Please post in respective FSCM forum with details requirement to get more info on that...
Coming to developement, you could use SAP pre defined content from SAP FINBASIS and APPL and develop scenarios.
If your ERP and FSCM are on the same box, use the same business systems else use seperate one for each.

How to use due date in credit management

hi,
i want to calculate my credits according to net due date
how can i use due date in credit management?
thank you

Not sure what do you mean by "use due date in credit management".
If you want to calculate due date per billing document, for example, for such as customer statement, you may use "BSID-ZFBDT + BSID-ZBD1T" (Baseline date + Cash disc day 1).

Credit management automatic credit control use of credit group

Hello gurus
1)In the credit management we have credit groups( which enables us to combine different sales
document types for the purposes of credit management).
In the simple credit check also we will assign the doc types to check the credit. Then please tell me why we need credit groups in automatic credit control? Here also we can assign the doc types to check the credit ?then what exactly is the use of credit group ?
2)where will we specify the total credit amount allowed of the credit control area?
3)In the automatic credit control (ova8) against to static check box option we have open orders and open delivers checkboxes. is this two boxes only specific to static or it also belongs to dyanic?
Is it necessary to check this boxes?
4)is any one have used any of the routines in automatic credit control( document controlling tab we have no credit check field here we specify the routine? If any business need please share with me
Thank you in advance for all the replies

Hi
For your 1st query , In credit mgmt we assign credit grps to sales document type. So as you said we will assign credit grps at simple credit check and coming to the Automatic credit check we assign credit grp for the sales document type also .But the difference is credit grp can be at order level or Delivery Level or PGI level in OVA8 in Automatic credit check .
Coming to your 2nd Query , we will specify the total credit limit in FD32.
For your 3rd query , In OVA8 apart from the static check we check the boxes open orders and open deliveries also because once you activate Automatic credit check and once you maintain credit limit for any customer then system will check the open orders and open deliveries also of that customer
Coming to your last query the routine feild can be used when some requirements have to be fulfilled then only automatic credit check should work for customers. or else the sales order ->delivery->PGI will happen normally

Credit Management: Use of release button in VKM2

3)what is the use of release button in VKM2. where does it releases?
Notes: If Credit Management is activated at Sales Order level and the credit block is removed through VKM1,VKM3 or VKM4, we can see the in VKM2 transaction code. But in VKM2 transaction code, we have release option .
What is the purpose of this options. Please assist me regarding the VKM2 transaction code.

The release button in VKM2 will have no affect on the document if it has already been released. I guess that if you release the document again the release date would be updated but nothing more.
I hope this helps.
