Automatic credit control

We use in our company automatic credit control. For one of our customers not credit control data have been maintened (fd32) therefore there is no credit group assigned to him.
When I try to make a sales order for this customer, the automatic credit control is turned on and I am unable to save the order since the next review data has passed (it is a check field in the automatic credit control for all customers that have credit control data).
Any opinions?

Hi,
If the customer concerned is not relevant for credit check,please remove the risk catigory under status screen in FD32

Urgent: Need help in automatic credit control

Hi SD Seniors
Please help me in the URGENT Credit check Control Configuration.
According to the user requirement, need to have simple static credit control in the place of sales order & delivery.
When credit check fails during the order creation,
1.     Wants to popup the warning message without blocking the delivery
2.     And wants to block the delivery from the PGI process.
I have already done the necessary credit check configuration in my test system. Based on the simple credit limit check,
System issues the warning message correctly at the time of order creation.
And I have configured the automatic credit check control configuration for the blocking the delivery PGI steps. But system doesnt block
The delivery and it still allow proceeding for PGI without any error message.
Please refer by below automatic credit control check for blocking the delivery. Please let me know, is there any other step I missed out here.
1. Credit control area is assigned to the company code.
2. Credit control area is assigned to the sales area.
3. Credit control area is assigned to the payer.
5. OBZK:   Assigned
7. Risk category for each credit control area.
8. OVA8: -Credit control area + Risk category + Credit group
9. FD32: -Credit limit, Risk category, Currency: assigned
10. OVA7/VOV7: - Activated correctly
11. V/08: - Pricing Procedure subtotal set to A
12. OB45: - Update Group 00012
Your help is very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Priyan

Karan, Thanks For you Quick Response.
OVO8: Cr.Ctrl.Area + Rick.Catg + Credit.Group (03)
The same credit group was assigned to the OVAD also.
OVAD: Dely.credit.grp = 03   (Credit group for goods issue)
AND
GI.Credit.group = 03 (Credit group for goods issue)
Is it correct?
My doubt is where exactly, we are telling the system to block the delivery.
In OV08, could you please tell me what are all the settings need to be done for
block delivery PGI

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

Update group in automatic credit control

Hi Everybody,
Can anyone explain me the meaning of update group in automatic credit control screen OVA8.
Do we have to set this update or it happens when we start usinng?
Regards,
raghu

Hi,
More info on this ,
Credit update for open order/delivery/billing document value
The credit update controls when the values of open sales orders, deliveries, and billing documents are updated.
Note
The open order value is only updated for schedule lines that are relevant for delivery.
Use
You can specify the following update groups for updating credit-related statistics:
Update group 000012
Sales order
Increases open order value from delivery-relevant schedule lines
Delivery
Reduces open order value from delivery-relevant schedule lines
Increases open delivery value
Billing document
Reduces open delivery value
Increases open billing document value
Financial accounting document
Reduces open billing document value
Increases open items
Update group 000015
Delivery
Increases open delivery value
Increases open billing document value
Financial accounting document
Reduces open billing document value
Increases open items
Update group 000018
Sales order
Increases open delivery value
Billing document
Reduces open delivery value
Increases open billing document value
Financial accounting document
Reduces open billing document value
Increases open items
Note
If a document cannot be processed with the update group you specify, the system determines the next possible update it can carry out. For example, you select Update group 000012 which, at delivery, reduces the open order value and increases the open delivery value. Assume that one item in the order is not relevant for delivery. In this case, the system automatically determines Update group 000018 for this item. Update group 000018 increases the open delivery value for the order item. The system uses the confirmed quantity of delivery-relevant schedule lines to update the order value.
Hope it adds. Pl reward if helpful.
Thanks & Regards

Release of customer after Automatic Credit Control

Hi friends,
I have configured Automatic Credit control during Sales Order entry. In OVA8 I have set the Dynamic Checks, Document Value and Oldest Opne Item with value of 30 days. Based on the outstanding the Sales Order creation is blocked with a message 'Credit check oldest open items overdue (Cannot be saved). Does this create a block against the customer at any place? In case unde special circumstances an order is to be created against the Customer how do i create an order for this customer.
Checked via FD32, there is no block for the customer
Please suggest.
Regards,
Uday

Hi Basavaraj,
Thanks for the reply. I think i have not expressed my requirement correctly. Let me explain it like this :
Today 09.06.2008 when I am trying to create a sales order for a customer, since there are document outstanding for more than 30 days the system correctly gives the message 'Credit check : Oldest open items overdue (cannot be saved). Since in OVA8 for Oldest item I have used the reaction as Error, rightly I am not able to save the order.
But if i come across an exceptional case wherein the management decides to allow transaction to be carried out for this customer, how do i go about it?
Since the order is not saved, cant use vkm4.

Uday

Business model mapping query (High sea sales) - automatic credit control cn

Our Client imports goods(chemicals & liquids) in bulk... on ships .. (to india)
It sells (the sale is made) before the ship enters the indian waters (territory).. (on the sea itself)
Practically this is what happens: (HIGH SEA SALES)
Invoice is done ( with all the statutary docts), as soon as the sales order is created. Lastly, the delivery happens.
Now, the client wants automatic credit check at DELIVERY LEVEL. ( After the invoicing is done, legally the goods belong to the customer, but our client wants to have a control on delivery, if at all any payment issue arise....
How to do this?
any ideas?

    Which kind of update did you choose for structure S066?
     In any case, "Synchronous update (1)" has to be chosen as the kind of update. All other settings will lead to errors.

Automatic Credit Control Horizon change

Business manager is requesting to switch Horizon on Dynamic from 1 W to 1 Day to minimize orders showing for credit release. What are repercussions of making such a change? How does a change like this affect the S066 and S067 tables?
Is this type of change something to avoid after going live?
Thank you.

What are repercussions of making such a change?
-     The system will not consider any order(s), whose delivery due date falls after 1day in credit check.
How does a change like this affect the S066 and S067 tables?
-     I donu2019t think any other changes will be made in these structures than the previous settings for 1W. Since the number of days are reduced, the number of sales orders read will be reduced and only these orders statistics will be available in these structures.
Is this type of change something to avoid after going live?
-     No, you can make changes any time as per business requirements. Normally, the changes are made in FD32 (field risk category) and not in SPRO, if you want to change for a customer.

OVA8 - Automatic credit control

Dear All,
Please let me know the usage of Max open item % and No of days in Open items . ( T-Code - OVA8)
Regards,
Prashant

Max % of overdue open items has got to do with the number of open items.
These 2 fields are used in tandem.
So if the values are:
Max % of open item = 50%
No. days open = 60.
This means that the number of open items that are overdue by 60 days should not exceed 50% of the total open items.
So suppose if total open items = 100.
SO you can have only 50(50%) open items that are overdue by more than 60 days.
Hope this helps.

How to create user credit control via customization

Hi !
I have to create user credit control via Transaction :
SPRO.
path:
Sales and Distribution->Basic Functions->Credit Management/Risk Management->Credit Management->Define Automatic Credit Control.
I want to check the user checkbox, and create my logic
of credit control.
In the help of credit control screen, it says that i have
to use user exits LVKMPTZZ and LVKMPFZ1.
However when i looked for that user exits at SMOD
that user exit don't exist !!!
How do i use those user exits ? Why can't i find those user exit ?
Can you give me please a code example of how to use
the user checkbox to change the logic of credit control ? or any material about the issue.
thanks
moshe

Hi,
You dont find the programs LVKMPTZZ and LVKMPFZ1 in SMOD transaction, check in SE38 by typing the program names, there you have the provision to write your custom code,
As user exits are specific to the business, it would be difficult to send the sample code to cater the functionality expected by your business,
Hope this helps,

Credit Control Issue

Hello All,
I want to know the importance of following field in OVA8 (Maintenance of Automatic Credit Control)
1) Checks in Financial Accounting/ old A/R summary
Payer
Permitted Days -- Permitted Hours ---
I want to give some grace period say 2/3 days over defined credit days in payment terms. So that the system will active the credit control after grace period i.e. say if my credit days is set as 30 days, currently the systems gives error if payment not received in 30 days. i want the system to give grace days time and then give error i.e. after 33 days.
Can i use the above functionality. If yes how it will work
Note: Increasing the days in payment terms will not solve my problem as i want this grace period for internal use only.
thanks.

Hi
Permitted Ageing in Days/hours
Permitted aging of A/R summary in days/hours.
The system uses the permitted aging in days and hours to verify whether the data in the A/R summary is still acceptable for credit check purposes. If the existing data in the A/R summary exceeds the aging set in days and hours, the system sets the status "A/R summary obsolete".
You may be able to avoid this status by scheduling the program which generates the A/R summary in FI more often or (in a distributed scenario) by going to the Financial Accounting IMG and choosing Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Credit Management -> Credit Control Account -> Make basic settings for credit management and stipulating that the credit check in SD should check the data in central financial accounting against the current data if the A/R summary is obsolete in one case.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.

Authorizations in Credit Control Configuration

Dear Friends
I am configuring "automatic credit control " for our client. The requirement is 4 levels of authorizations. I've completed the settings for credit check at transaction level.
Now, How do I maintain the Authorizations (4 levels) I am aware that there are 3 controls , user1, user2 & user3 in OVO8 control.
Any help/suggestion, will surely be appreciated.
Rgds
Sumanth.Gururaj

hi friend
You mean you want to create 4 level release authorizations, right?
As we know, user1, user2 & user3 in OVO8 control are customized credit checking user exit. we can add our specific checking logic on it.
But for credit release, there is a standard function as VKM1.
As your requirements, I think there is a standard function maybe can help u, named User Status Control.
You can add some status to control the sales document, for example, block delivery, block billing.
If document has not been approved, system will reject further action according to your status settings.
Hope this can take some help for u.
