Buffer-to-buffer credit management scheme of ONS 15454

Both 15454 SL card (MSPP) and MXP_M_10DME(MSTP) have a buffer-to-buffer credit management scheme to provide FC flow distance extension.
I can not find any document about a buffer-to-buffer credit management scheme.
Q1) Are there any buffer-to-buffer credit management scheme difference between 15454 SL card (MSPP) and MXP_M_10DME(MSTP) ?
Q2)Are there any buffer-to-buffer credit management scheme presentation documents of 15454 SL card (MSPP)?

ISL buffer credit allocation

Greetings,
I have four MDS switches that I intend to use as part of a DR solution with native fibre channel and a Cisco ONS. I am moving from a Brocade solution and am interesting in the buffer credits for the ISL. Each link is 2 Gpbs and eventually they will be port channels when I get a couple more links.
<quote>
255 buffer-to-buffer credits-are assigned to each port for optimal bandwidth utilization across distance.
</quote>
Does that mean the B2B credits are automagically assigned for use or we have to set them manually. The max distance in my alternate loop is 35 km. We have found that the traffic is odd and the typical B2B numbers are just not good enough. So, can I set say 70 or 105 BB credits manually to each interface that will be an ISL? If so, then which of the BB Credit options do I use? The list is interesting:
Admin Default
Extended
Admin ISL
Admin FX
and
Perf Bufs Admin.
Oddly enough, after googling a fair bit and going over my training notes, I can't find any doco on this anywhere.
Can someone please comment on this?
Stephen

Phil,
Thanks again for a response.
Do you know why there are so many B2B credits available for the interfaces compared to Brocade? Eg, a Brocade interface will only offer 3 credits on a standard interface compared to the 16 available on the MDS. This causes issues on heavily worked interfaces. Also, after forking out a sum of money to get long distance mode for the Brocade, the maximum is still less that the standard of 255 for ISL's.
Isn't a buffer credit the same for all vendors devices? In relatively simple terms, it lets you extend a 1 Gpbs FC interface up to 2 kilometres. So a 2 Gpbs interface over 32 kilometres would require 64 buffer credits. Was Cisco planning for 8 Gpbs interfaces when they did the buffer credit allocation?
I wonder how the Nexus does this?

Configuring SAP Credit management interfaces in PI 7.0

Hi all,
I am working on PI 7.0 instance and have an issue while trying to connect Accounts receivable accounting with SAP Credit Management.
Did anybody configure this kind of interfaces (Credit cOMMITMENT & Credit Payment) so that they could be integrated with PI?
If so, could you please tell me the steps to configure the mappings and CCs in IR and ID?
i am following SAP Credit mngmnt config guide, but there is no info regarding this.
TCODES are: UKM_TRANSFER_ITEM & UKM_TRANSFER_VECTOR
Best regards,
David

try sapsr3.<table> instead of sap<sid>
SAPSR3 is the schema now. Once lock is removed , try to login with sap*/ddic with master password which you gave while installing.
Thanks

Risk category field is missing in dso for 0fiar_o09 credit management.

Hi BI Experts,
I am using the standard extractor for the credit management dso 0fiar_o09. The field for risk category originates from our R3 system in table knkk-ctplc. It displays correctly in the psa. The transformation rsds 0fi_ar_9 maps it to 0risk_categ. It appears as an infoObject in the infoSource. The trcs transformation maps the rule also.
However, when I try to display the data in the dso, the risk category field does not display at all.
Please help with any possible suggestions to display the missing field.
Kind regards,
Cheryl Adamonis

I resolved this issue by removing the check in the 'attribute only' selection on the general tab of the infoObject.

Letter of Credit functionality and Credit Management

Hi,
we want to use Letter of Credit functionality for exports.
Currently, we have an ERP system that contains the sales data. In a separate system we have the credit management functionality (Financial Supply Chain Mgt - FSCM).
When order is created, the credit limit is checked in the FSCM system (via PI messages).
Now, we want to link some of the Sales orders with Letter of Credit. I believe, this is standard functionality in GTS.
So when Sales Order is created a LOC should be connected to this.
Can the GTS be connected also to FSCM credit management, so credit limit is not affected?
Example:
Sales Order value: 1 Mio USD
10% down-payment > this would be in the credit exposure visible (net exposure).
90 % covered through LOC > credit exposure should showing this, or it shows order value and in a negative figure this amount deducted so no effect on exposure.
Down-payment has no relation to LOC. When money is received for this the net exposure of the sales order is 0.
partial invoice: 0.4 Mio USD > it should be possible to link this invoice to the LOC. The posting FI document should have some LOC information, so when payment comes in the amount in LOC is reduced as well as in credit management this open.
Final invoice 0.5 USD: as above, all values go out from exposure if there are any.
A second case would be guarantees, where there is no reduction of values. This would stay same.
Anyone who can advise a solution here?
Thanks + Regards
Hein

Letter Of Credit can be used as a standard solution of SAP GTS with ERP solution. Yes you can connect both SAP & no SAP systems with GTS, but plugins, PI etc needs to be built in. But it would not be real time like RFC works. There are some standard available which needs to be hard coded to meet specific requirements.
Connecting LOC to Sales Order, invoice etc, is manual, based on business specific parameters and it comes standard with SAP GTS. Maintaining Values & Quantity of LOC based on actual LOC from bank is also possible. The depreciation of values & quantities is also standard with in LOC in GTS.
You can also setup various communication methods for LOC.
I think when Invoice is raised and payment is received the LOC should be closed in the system. There can also be other scenarios where in system determines LOC based on predefined logics for determination strategy put in to the GTS system.

Open Sales Order Values in Credit Managment

Hi,
1. I want to include the open sales orders that were created before implementing the functionality of Credit Managment. How to check the credit limits for that sales orders.
Fro Example. If i want do the credit checks for 1000 open sales orders.
2. How to reset the customer credit limit in FD32. I tried using the t.code f.28, but it will not be reset to zero(0).
Thank you,
Ravi

Hello Ravi,
You can try this: in table VBAK, you might have the date when this a particular order was created( ERDAT or sometihng like that..). You'll have to join table VBAK/VBAP/VBRK(billing table)/VBFA and the logic should be that the program should pick up all the orders created before 1 yr and should also check that the items are not rejected, and the delivery not yet created.
Check the following fields:
VBAK-ERDAT, VBAP-ERDAT, VBAP-ABGRU, VBAP-AEDAT.

Raghu.

Open Delivery value update error in credit management

Hi
We have credit management active at delivery level. The value of open deliveries is not getting updated correctly for items with material substitution (material determination). For all other items, its getting updated correctly.
E.g Let say the credit limit set in FD32 is 10000 and the credit limit used % is 98 and the credit exposure value is 9800.
Now when I create an order with qty 10 for mat A, it creates a sub item B due to material determination and the value of the item is Rs.1200. In our system, the sub item with TAPS item category is relevant for pricing.
Then I create a delivery in VL01N and save it.
Now if i check in FD33, the credit limit used should be 101% and the credit exposure value should be 11000, but its not updating the open delivery value correctly. Its not considering the value of the new delivery.
However, If I add a normal item (TAN) in the same sales order and create a delivery for that item and save it, its updating the credit exposure based on the value of the normal item in the delivery correctly.
How to make the system update the open delivery values correctly by taking the items with material determination also into account.??
Please advise if any specific settings need to be done.
Regards
Madhu

Hi,
the system updates open values for credit management. These are:
Open sales order credit value (S066-OEIKW)
Open delivery credit value (S067-OLIKW)
Open billing document credit value (S067-OFAKW)
The system updates the open values in standard SIS structures S066 and S067. Technically, the structures are transparent tables. You can display the contents using transaction SE16 or using table maintenance.
The S067-OLIKW will give the open delivery credit values credit.Check in you system whether this table is updated with the delivery values for the credit account(customer number)
RVKRED77 u2013 Reorganize SD credit data
When updating errors occur, it enables you to reorganize the open credit, delivery and billing document values.
If the table is not updated run this report in background.

Thanks for the Input, could you please let me know how we trigger this IDOC. Is it through configuration or any standard program which will generate idocs.

Customer complaint and credit management

Hi,
we have the following business case, credit management activated:
1. a customer has a complain about a delivery (e.g. poor quality/wrong material)
2. the corresponding invoice is shown as an open item in FBL5N
3. a credit note request is created for the sales order, but it can take weeks until it gets released. In the meantime the customer becomes overdue.
4. now the following happens: when the customer wants to place a new order he will be blocked by the credit management.
We first have to release him e.g. via VKM4. The same with deliveries.
Is there a possibility to mark the invoice in question as not relevant for the credit management?
My first idea was to change the credit note requests as relevant for the credit management (VOV8), but unfortunately those requests are not visible in FBL5N. Thus we would loose the overview of invoices in question.
Thanks for your answers...
Cheers,
Marc

hello, PP.
i don't have an answer yet. actually, i will add to your question.
a credit memo request is supposed to be not relevant for delivery. so why is this updating open delivery value? maybe it's SAP standard? maybe credit group 03 (delivery docs) was assigned to the credit memo request doc type? if so, why assign credit management to credit memo requests anyway?
regards.

Credit Management (Open Items and Oldest Open Items)

I have 2 questions.
1)What is the difference between Open Items check and Oldest open items
2) I want to activate a Credit management check which should work in way that the Order will be blocked on the basis of Payment term check
Let say if I am using the Payment terms 0001 i.e Payment immediately due net .now what I want is that if I post the first invoice system as configured will check only the Credit check againt the credit Limit but when i post the 2nd invoice on the same day and the first invoice is not cleared system should give a warning message for it .
Currenlty as i Configured it working but not for the same day option its give a warning on the 2nd day's invoice
SO Need the help of Experts.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Open items check means it will consider all the open items when it is doing credit check. Here it adds all the open items amount and do the credit check..
Oldest open item means it will consider only the oldest open item and based on tht i will do credit check..Here i will check the oldest open item value and its date then do the credit check..
Coming to payment terms check, system is responding correctly.. because payment terms are immed due net. tht means still time is there in the same day. that is the reason it is not blocking the second document.
once move to 2nd day then it means first doc is not cleared tht is the reason it is blocking the 2 nd doc on 2nd doc..
Hope u have understand..

Sankar

Payment History In Credit management

Hi all,
How to activate the Payment History in Credit Management(FD32).
Regards
Talluri

Hi Talluri
If you want to activate payment history in FD32 then in XD02->Company code data tab->payment transactions tab check the box payment history and save it
Now when you do billing and forward it to FI for the blocked documents then the payment history will be updated

Credit Management - Maximum time overdue limit for open item

Dear all,
I've this scenario to configure for automatic credit control. A customer is billed on Jan 22nd '10 and now the account receiveable shows an open item. This customer is allowed 52 calendar days to make payment for this invoice, hence no credit block yet. As such, the customer can still make orders.
In my existing configuration, I've already enable "static" credit check on "open orders" and "open deliveries". The static check is to check against the customer's credit limit.
So, if I were to add in the earlier mentioned overdue open items check, is it sufficient to just maintain the field "Days oldestItem" with "52" within the automatic credit control screen?
Thanks.
Steven

Hi
The sytstem will shows oldest open items depending on the payment terms from the invoice date.
Once it crosses the days of payment then it will show in oldest open items
if you want to extend some more days for that then you need to maintain the days in "Days oldestitem" the automatic credit control area
Prerequisites for credit management to work in Sales and Distribution:
1.Assign credit control area to company code
2.Maintain the credit limit in FD32 with details of risk category and the credit limit value
3.Do the settings in OVA8 -automatic credit control area with combination of Credit control area/Risk category /credit group.
4.Assign the credit groups to the sales and delivery document types.
5.Maintain the Subtotal 'A' in the pricing procedure against which value the sytem should check the credit limit.
If you have any further clarifications on above let me know

Credit management

We have open sale order for a customer after which the credit management was activated. In FD 32 the credit limit was set.
The risk category used is 006.
We have used static check. We have ticked on open orders and open items.
We want the system to prompt at the sale order level if we are trying to change the quantity.
After maintaining the master when we create order and if it exceeds the limit we are getting the error message that credit limit exceed by -
value.
For orders that are raised before fd32, we are not getting the error message.
Could anyone please guide

Hi Pooja
In OVA8 , for static check change the Reaction box to error and then check , but generally the open orders, open deliveries work for dynamic credit check and not for static credit check

Credit Management requirement for cash business

Hi Gurus,
Actually my client business is a cash business, there is no credit concept for the customers.
My requirement is when i create a sales order, system should check the credit balance of the customer(Business receives the payment through cheque and entry is made in f.28 transaction) and should compare with the current document value and if it exceeds, then system should through the error.
And if any open sale orders exists for this customer, system should even consider those values while credit check is happening.
And the exceptions for this requirement is
1.Credit check option should be there only for specific case of customers i,e based on account group of customers.
2.There are very few customers(around 5) where they give credit.
Pls guide me, early resposes woould be highly appreaciable.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Mahendar.

hello, friend.
you can consider using the payment guarantee scenario in credit management. the customer advance payment could be treated sort of as a financial document or payment card.
as for the selective application of credit controls based on customer group, i believe you do this be configuring risk categories and assigning them to the appropriate credit account master data.
regards.
