Use of Letter of Credit in Sales cycle

Hi Guru's
Can any one send me or explain me of the letter of credit work process in SAP or sales cycle?
Please Suggest any documentation on it
thanx In advcnce.

HI Prashant,
here is the overview or payment cards
   1. When you create a sales order, you can enter credit card data manually, or copy it from the payer master record. You can enter one card in the sales order overview screen. You are able to enter multiple cards, or multiple authorizations on one card, in the payment card plan in the sales order header. The system automatically authorizes the sales order when you save it.
At a later time, you create the delivery. The authorization may have expired in the meantime, so the system checks to ensure that it is still valid. If the authorization is no longer valid, the system tells you to reinitiate authorization in the sales order. You complete and save the delivery. When all the items are picked, packed, and goods issue is posted,
you create a billing document. Here, payment card data is copied from the sales order, or uploaded directly into the billing document from an external system, as in the case of point of sale. The system uses the authorizations in the payment card plan to calculate billing amounts. You process the billing document and release it to Financial Accounting.
PAYMENT CARD MASTER DATA
To quickly and efficiently process sales orders with payment cards, you can store card data in the payer master record. When you create a sales order, you simply call up a list of cards for the customer using the matchcode on the payment card number field. The system automatically copies the card data into the sales order for the card or cards that you choose from this list.
The one-time customer record is a collective account, in the master record, for a group of unrelated customers. For this reason, you cannot maintain payment card data for one-time customers.
Features
You can enter the following card information in the payer master record:
Card type, for example VISA, MC, or AMEX
Card number
      The system checks the card numbers you enter to ensure that they correspond to the numbering standards of the relevant payment card company (for example, checking to make sure that a Visa card number begins with "4").This reduces the risk of having to go through a lengthy authorization process in the sales order with an incorrect card number.
      The system also checks to ensure that a payment card belongs to only one customer. You cannot enter one payment card in two different master records.
Expiration date
Cardholder or company name as it appears on the card
Card category, such as credit card, customer card, or purchasing card
Blocking reason
If required, you can block the payment card by entering a reason, for example 01 for "card stolen". You maintain blocking reasons in Customizing for payment cards in the Billing section of the IMG.
Note
A block is for a particular payment card only. If one of the customer's payment cards is blocked, he or she may use another.
Also, a block does not effect sales documents that have already been created with the card. You can, however, run a standard search to determine all documents in which the card number is used.
Card valid-from date
Default card
You can assign a default card if there is more than one card for a customer. When you call up a list of cards for the customer in the sales order, this card is highlighted.
Hope this will be helpful...

Deletion of Complete Sales Cycle

Is there any shortcut to completely delete the sales cycle including sales order,delivery,pgi,invoice and accounting document and all the impact are reversed as there were some major issues in the data entry and there is no other wayout.I have to bring the sd module to the state of"new born".Help!!!

hi,
then clean up the tables and keep the cleaned information in archive.
From my little experience in systems implementation, support and administration, one phenomenon that has contradicting meaning depending on the context in which it is used is archiving or data archiving. Often times, IT professionals tend to confuse the term with concepts such as data reorganization, fragmentation, document imaging, backup and restore among others. Even in the SAP world, some technical professionals takes data archiving to be synonymous with terminologies such as SAP Archive Link and DART.
While I do not intend to do a compare and contrast these phenomenons in this post, I think it is expedient to clearly define what data archiving is in the context of SAP. I will also give an overview of how data is archived and the benefits of data archiving in SAP.
What is Data Archiving?
Data Archiving is a decongestion process used to delete large volume of data that is no longer needed from a database and storing same outside the database in a format that allows for data retrieval and analysis when need be. The emphasis here are on u201Cdeletingu201D and u201Cstoringu201D. It is common knowledge that if a database is left to grow unmaintained, there is a possibility of having performance bottlenecks and high database maintenance cost. Hence, one of the ways to maintain the database is to delete records that can be termed obsolete. The word u201Cobsoleteu201D is relative. For the archiving process to be complete, data has to be stored using a defined method.
How is data archived?
The data archiving run follows a sequence of steps. A brief overview is provided below.
1. Creation of the archive file: During an archive run, the write program first creates archive files which initiates the reading process (from the database) and the consequent writing process (to the archive file)
2. Storage of the archive file: After successful run of step 1, the created archive files are stored. A number of methods can be leveraged to store an archive file. Archived files can be stored hierarchically, optically or manually. It is important to state that SAP does not recommend the manual storage of archive file. This is as a result of some standardization issues
3. Deletion of data: This step terminates the archive run. Before data is deleted from the database, the program first read the content of the archive file. It is after this task, that the program deletes the corresponding entry from the database.
Benefits of Data Archiving
1. Reduced Backup and Restore time
2. Reduced access time for tables
3. Reduced database administration cost
4. Reduced downtime for system upgrade
5. Reusability of data

Exchange rate automatic update in Sale Order

Dear All,
This is regarding Exchange rate automatic update in Sale Order and requirement said below.
Process:
User will created a Export Sale order in the month of November , that time Exchange rate is 50.00, this will
get updated in Sale order Header and Item level.
But user will create billing in the month of December , at that time Exchange rate is 40.00. So in Billing
document Header level exchange rate will be 40.00 (Current rate) and Item level exchange rate will be
50.00.
Requirement:
User requirement is like this the current exchange rate 40.00 to be updated in Sale Order Header and Item
level automatically, because user using Sale order Exchange rate for Z-Report.
As of now user manually updating Exchange rate in Sale Order.
Let me know if there is any solution.
Regards
S Kumar

I dont think this is possible. You should be aware any change in subsequent document would not have any impact in the preceding document which means, whatever exchange rate flowing in billing cannot be updated in sale order. May you can update your zee table by considering the billing document exchange rate by way of exit.
thanks

Error occurred while processing the "sales" partition of the "sales" measure group in the cube

Hi
when i ran the job for processing the cube it showing the error like "error occurred while processing the sales partition of the sales measure group in the cube". but in log files no error massage was there. after get that error message we ran
the cube manually
at that time the cube executed successfully.
my aim when the job was run it will be process automatically but it is not like that.
can you suggest the solution.
thank you
satyak248

Hi Satyak248,
According to your description, you get the error when using Windows Task to process a cube on a schedule, however can process the cube on SSMS successful manually, right?
In your scenario, you can process the cube manually, the issue can be cause by Windows Task was not set correctly. So you can try to process the cube using SSIS package. The Analysis Services Processing Task in SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) allows
for the processing of one to many to all Analysis Services objects in an SSIS package. Once the SSIS package is created, then a job can be created within the SQL Server Management Studio which will allow for scheduling.

Sales cycle automation

hai ,
can we automize sales cycle from sales order creation to invoice creation,
when user saves the sales order and if the qty is available after availability check then delivery,picking,pgi and invoice has to be created automatically and the invoice should be mailed to respective user without any user intervention
regards
afzal

Hi,
First step in the sales cycle which is sale order, In your case if saels order is created by any downstream systesm or legacy system, then it should be configred using the IDOC mapping from that system
As you are ABAPER you are aware of what settings needs to be done for IDOC mapping
After sales order, if the Confirmed quantity is there , then you have to do delivery using the BATCH JOB in SM36
Then Picking and PGI will be also through the Job
After the delivery setup Billing job which is by using SDBILLDL
Hope it is cler,

Confirmation/Back order processing in Sales Order

Hello All,
Need some inputs on the Schedule line confirmation and the back order processing for Sales Order
Scenario 1
Sales order created but there is no stock in Storage location. Based on our settings Sales Order confirmed for a future date(say 10 days) based on the delivery/lead time.
Also sales order goes on credit block. Next we receive stock in storage location.
Now when we release the credit hold it is not doing the confirmation autmatically. I know it can be done but dont know the settings or config where as soon as the Sales order is released from Credit hold then it should do the availibility check and confirm the Order (for todays or toms date.)
Scenario 2:
Sales order created but there is no stock in Storage location. Based on our settings Sales Order confirmed for a future date(say 10 days) based on the delivery/lead time.
Next we receive stock. We would like to confirm the sales order automatically by a program instead of going in individually in each sales order.
What Tcode/program can do this availibility check and confirm the sales order for todays date. Is this a back order processing or rescheduling. Need information on this process..
Thanks
SAP Fans...

HI Rahul
When you create the sales order and if stock is not confirmed then ,system will give the next delivery date and you can do the backorder processing for that sales order . So backorder processing is done only for Open orders

Multiple discounts are given at different levels of sales cycle

I have a requirement,
Multiple discounts are given at different levels of sales cycle(like opportunity, quotation etc), interlinked with document flows.
It must be assured that all the matchings must be taken into accounts and are displayed underneath each other.
ex:
discount simple : 15%
discount simple : 12%
special discount : 10%
Is it a standard functionality in SAP CRM or should we do enhancement to cope the functionality, if it is an enhancement any idea how to do that.

How to automatically block a sales order once it is created?

Hi,
We have a requirement to automatically block any sales order that is created and start a workflow for approval process and only after the approval is completed does this block go away.
We are planning to create the custom block for this. Also we have a product for the workflow process and approval.
We are looking to see if there is any configuration that we can set to automatically block the sales order. At the end of the workflow we can release the block programatically.
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
You can create a custom block and assign it to the sales order type using the transaction VOV8 (Maintain Sales Order Types) so that whenever the order is created a block will be assigned automatically. Please note that there are many documentations already available in this topic and so it should be quite easy for you to google the procedure.
In case of any specific requirement or issue in the process please revert back.

Automatic determination for Sales personnel / Employee responsible in sales

Hi Gurus,
Help me out in automatic determination for Sales personnel / Employee responsible in sales order. I have tried in Partner determination, it is not working.
Regards,
sushil

There can be few options:
Option 1: In the customer master partner determination, add the Sales Person and Employee responsible partner functions and mark them as mandatory. In the Sales Order Header Partner Determination, add the same and mark them Mandatory. Then during order processing, the relevant Sales Person and Employee responsible will flow in the order header partners
Option 2: Mainatin a Z table based on Sales Area / any other specific parameter / Sales Person & employee responsible. You can improvise the table parameters as per your business needs and requirements.Then in the order user exit MV45AFZB in form_userexit_move_field_to_VBAK you can read this z table and get the sales person and employee responsible. May be you can add these two fields in Order Header- Additioanl Data B tab and populate them thru this program.
Hope this helps

About CRM sales cycle

Hi all,
I am new to CRM.
please tell me What are sales cycle, opportuntity, quotation in CRM ?

Hi Vishal,
The sales cycle of a product or service begins when an opportunity for sales is recognized. This can arise by chance, for example, if a sales employee finds out about a worthwhile investment project during a conversation.
The process ends with a sales order or a rejection from the customer. In the meantime, various sales activities, such as sending information material, customer visits, product presentations, quotations and contractual negotiations, take place. An opportunity goes through a sales cycle which is divided into various phases. Specific sales activities are carried out in these phases.

What is sales cycle?

what is sales cycle?

hi
the process from where the customer approches the business to till the order is delivered to the customer..
in SAP this process starts from the Enquiry - Quotation - Order - Delivery - Billing
in real time its not must that the process has to start from Enquiry.. usually customer directly places the order and the rest of the process is continued..
sometimes there are situations where goods are delivered with the order reference..
below is the config part of Sales Cycle
Sales Order Cycle:-
Step 1: Sales Document Type
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
Sales Document Header:
1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
Sales Document Item:
1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category
Schedule Line:
1. Define Schedule Line Categories: If possible use Standard Schedule Lines. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Assign Schedule Line Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving Schedule Line: Item Category + MRP Type / No MRP Type.
Step 2:
IMG > Logistic Execution > Shipping > Deliveries >
1. Define Delivery Types: If possible use Standard Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Item Categories for Deliveries: If possible use Standard Item Categories for Delivery Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
3. Define Number Ranges for Deliveries: Ensure to maintain number range.
Step 3:
IMG > Sales and Distribution > Billing >
1. Define Billing Types: If possible use Standard Billing Type. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
2. Define Number Range For Billing Documents: Ensure to maintain number range.
3. Maintain Copying Control For Billing Documents: Maintain relevant copy controls such as Sales Order to Billing, Deliver to Billing, etc.
