Cash Management - Forecast Report

Dear Expert,
In the cash Management - Forecast Report, I have customer invoice with discount payment term.
Example:
customer invoice - USD1,000
Payment term is 30 days. If pay in first 10 days, 1% discount.
So the forecast report is showing USD990 in the customer forecast column for the coming 10 days. But after the 10 days, it still showing RM990.
Logically, it should have exceed the 10 days discount period and the report should show USD1,000, RIGHT?
Any expert have any idea on this issue?
Please share. Thanks.

Hi Louis,
May be the system is figuring out more than we expect ?
Please check the cutomer master to see if the "Payment History" is flagged. If this is the case then the calculation of "planning day " is different. As you might be aware , usually Planning Day = baseline day + payment term days.
Also check out the note 24883
Hope you resolve soon,
Shony

Issue with Cash Management and liquidity forecast report

Hello folks,
I am working with cash management and liquidity forecast reports. While running the report for Cash management, as I drill down to planning levels and induvidual GL accounts for the bank accounts, the figures for GL acounts in report does not tally with actual GL balances. As I drill down to last level, it shows the GL balance display which is different from the values in the report. Can anyone tell me why it does not pick up certain values. I find that certain document type "DZ" values are not picked up by the report. Any suggestions?
Also, I would like to know is there any way to cross check the values in Liquidity forecast report for sales orders, purchase orders and requisitons through any other report in MM and SD. Would appreciate if someone can respond to mu query.
Thanks in advance,

In se38, look for programs starting with RFFD*; there are a few for reconciliation of cash management with SD/MM/GL etc.

Cash Mangement Report for Liquidity Forecasting Issue (FF7A)

Hello,
This report runs on the basis of value date, which is fair enough. But the issue is the reconciliation of the GL balances and the report balance that vary for the transactions other than local currency.
For example, a payment made in US dollars (while the local currency is Pakistani Rupees PKR), the system picks up the last updated buying rate (USD/PKR) from the system as usual.
But once you view the same transaction in the above mentioned report, the system choses the selling rate (USD/PKR) from the system for liquidity forecasting. But the issue is that, we wish to see the details of foreign currency transactions with the exchange rate of that particular document, not the prevailing one, so that the balances of both GL and the report gets reconciled.
Please help me out, if anyone has already worked it out.
Thanks, and Regards,
Zeeshan Rashid

Hi,
The logic for the system to use last updated rate, is that the forecast for receivables and payables are restated at the latest rates, i.e. the realistic values which would be received or paid.
If certain transactions are settled, the same needs to be cleared so that they are not picked in liquidity forecast report.
Trust this helps.

Cash forecast (FF7B) from IM / PS applications, and internal orders as well

Hi,
Does anyone know how to use transaction FF7B (cash forecast), with IM and PS applications?
I have several options:
1) from IM application, I would like to use the capitalize date and another field(s) that will contain the terms of payment; then I would like to be able to forecast my payments 1 year in advance and monthly (according to the terms of payment: 20% the 1st of june, 50% the 1st of october,...). Does SAP enable to do so in its standard? Which field(s) should I use in the investment line item to enter my terms of payment?
2) Same question for PS application or from internal orders, which fields should I use to have a date and terms of payment so that I can have a report of my payment forecast with transaction FF7B?
As you would have understood, I would like to have several levels of payment forecasts: at IM level, at PS level, then engaged with purchase orders/requests (standard SAP) and invoices (standard SAP).
Thanks for your ideas/help...
Ronan

Hi Ronan,
FF7B allows you to pick up itesm from the SD and MM module and show it in the Liquidity Forecast report. So for example, if you have Sales Orders with a delivery date of say November 1, 2010 and the customer has terms Net/30, then this amount will show up as a Receivable on Dec.1, 2010. Similarly if the delivery is spread over a one year period with 1/12th being delivered every month, then the Liq. Forecast will show them accordingly in each month starting from December 2010.
In your case you want to show items appearing in IM and PS. I am not familiar with these modules, but I am sure there will be a way to capture them and show them items in the Liquidity Forecast. May be if you can give some detail about the items which you want to see in the FF7B report, I might be able to guide you.

Offsetting Field for Liquidity Forecast Report (FF7A)

Hi Expert,
Would you like to suggest what BtE that can be used to display offsetting account in Liquidity Forecast Report for Customer and Vendor ?
We have implemented BtE "SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00002218", the BtE works fine in the Cash Position Report for Bank and Cash,
but this enhancement didn't impact the Liquidity Forecast Report, do we need to implement other BtE ?
Thanks for your valuable reply..

Thank you Florent,
It's so helpful.
I must accept SAP standard design As-is. No way to post automatically Taxes since PO.

Liquidity forecast report - On which date will Purchase order be reflected

Dear Gurus,
My client has payment terms ' payment 30 days after date of GR'
say the Purchase Order is raised on 1/1/2009 and GR done on 20/1/2009 then amount should be due to vendor on 19/2/2009 ( 30 days from GR date)
it is required that when i raise PO the said date should be reflected in liquidity forecast report.
How can i make this possible as at time of raising PO i do not know GR date.
Also let me know on which date the PO would normally be reflected in liquidity forecast report?
Regards,

Hi,
I have a problem that none of the PO amount is reflected on cash liquidation, the report only retrieves balances of PO which have been converted to invoice through MIRO.
I found that the configuration is complete, planning group has been assigned to vendor master data. Do you have any idea how planning level in Cash Management connects to Material Management/Vendor?
Or is there something missing that I can't get balance of PO in cash liquidation report?
Thanks a lot

Please can you help and tell if you are experiencing the same and if not how do you solve this issue.
Many thanks
Kind regards

You can have payment date determination based on planning group (set in customer/vendor master). The config path is:

FF7A- Cash management Report

Hi Experts,
After executing the Cash management and forecast report in transaction code FF7A, we drill down in the sub-ledger-it shows correct figures then we drilldown further to FI figures here also it shows correct figures but when we drilldown to external and internal customers and vendors, we found that the SAP system shows incorrect figures, it does not match with the figures of the report from which we drilled down from.
we have checked all the relevant available SAP notes but either they are implemented or are not applicable.
we are using 4.6C version of SAP SP upgraded till 43 for 4.6C.
can somebody guide?
Thanks in advance
PAB

Hi David,
without having need to go into some Customizing of specific Custom development, you can specify time period not only in days, but also in weeks, months and combination of all mentioned before, so I'm sure you can cover period of even more than 60 days. When you run FF7A, there is a group of fields called Increment in selection criteria, where you can specify your variant of timeline, also another field Number of Columns, where max. number is a bit more than 20 columns (or days) if I'm not wrong (do not have access to system at moment).
E.g. you can show first 2 weeks in days, then next 2 months in weeks and the rest period in months, which makes more than 2 months.
Hope this will help you.

R12 Cash Forecasting modification to Include Receipts (GRN's)

Hi All,
I have also sent the same information to a professional community.
Our customer has a requirement to include Receipts (GRN's) in Cash Forecasting of Cash Management R12
Currently Cash Forecasting only allows to forecast from PO and/or Invoice.
The full requirement is to allow the user to choose GRN on the template screen with a lof the same options as PO. Use the date of the Receipt and the terms of the supplier to determine the future cash requirement.
While I am aware we could simply modify a report to provide this figure, our customer is adamant that we develop this within Cash Forecasting.
Has anyone developed this before?
Would you have any tips or suggestions?
Your help & advice as always is greatly appreciated
Thank you,
Damien

Hi,Damien
IN r12, the cash forecasting is including the receipts , u can add the new row tat sourced from the AR receipts when u define the template.
