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credit check in SD should check the data in central financial accounting against the current data if the A/R summary is obsolete in one case.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.

Credit control area issue.

hello Experts,
I recently join a support team.
Schenario -
- assigned cocd to credit contrl area checked for "Overwrite CC", no value in "crd contrl area" Field.
- 9 credit contrl areas are permitted to one company code.
- Particular customer has different credit limits in different credti contrl area in FD32.
User raise issue-
While any FI Posting related to customer, there should be a mendetory field to enter Credit control area for both debit and credit item, even when document is reversed.
I m confused.
Can any one give me idea to resolve.
Waiting for replay

Hi,
the credit control area relates to customers, not to individual documents. It may help to think of this organization:
- credit control area is linked to company code
- customer is assigned to risk category in a credit control area
Now when you post in AR/FI the system uses the link between company code and credit control area set up in customizing.
There is no need to make an entry in the posting document.
Hope this helps,

Credit check issue in third party order

Dear all,
We are facing some issues related to credit management data for one of our customer. I need your valuable inputs for below mentioned queries-
1. As a genaral question- When we releases a SO through VKM* How the system calculated the " Released Credit Value of the document".
2- For one of the customers, the FD33 shows a Sales value X USD. As i see the split of this sales value , this X USD amounts to OPEN DELIVERIES. Both Open So and Open billing are zero. We tried to check with no. of tcodes to find out the open values but no such Open delv document is appeared.
In VC/2, it only shows Open SO, no open deliveries are there.
So i tried with simulation program RVKRED88, and found 5 third party Sales documents , against which some value is coming under the Open delivery value and it sums up to the value as coming in FD33.
I have a few questions on this-
> All the SO in output are Third party SO, against which PO has been created, ( Third party So> PR> PO> MIRO--> billing) and all are in status OPEN, so how come they are showing value in OPEN DELIVERY ?
--> The value appearing against these third party SO is Not equal to items value/net value, it is a complete different value than appearing in SO. But in SO changes history , the same value is coming AS RELEASED CREDIT VALUE. How is it being calculated?
For eg- for one of the Third party SO , the value coming in RVKRED88 is 29573.53 USD,
                                                            net value in So= 24,120.00 USD, Qty = 6000 PC , Credit price= 4.02 USD
                                                            Credit value of So in VBAk= 29573.53 USD
                                                           SO created , released on 08.July.2011, confirmed schedule line =08.Oct.2011
Credit settings- Static check + Credit active Item cat and SO , Open So and open delv are ticked in credit settings.
Kindly help in the analysis.
many thanks in advance for the inputs.

Hi Dharmendra,
1. When we release a sales order using VKM* transaction S066 information structure and OEIKW field is updated which increases open order value.
2. If there is mismatch in the values of credit related fields run RVKRED77 (Re-organisation of credit in case of update errors) this will update all the credit data for a Payer customer in real time. RVKRED88 is simulation mode.
3. Updating of values related to credit is controlled by the update group assigned to credit control area. If system is not able to update using the assigned update group it will automatically try updating using the next update group. Below is the text of SAP Help.
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
As you know in OVA8 transaction credit control area, Risk category, credit group and currency are assigned to update group.

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

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

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,

Problem in credit control area

Hi Gurus,
We have configured credit control area using Static Credit check.
We have assigned the same to order type and delivery type also.
While creating sales order, even though the total value is crossing the credit limit which is set in FD32. the system is not prompting any error.
Please suggest, where we could have gone wrong..
Sridhar.P

Hi gupta,
you need to check the following in customizing settings.
Credit checks can run at different times during order processing.
For delivery creation, you can additionally specify whether the automatic credit check occurs at the time of delivery creation and/or goods issue.
In this menu option, you specify the sales document types for which a credit check should be carried out. Here, delivery types can be controlled separately and specifically at the time of goods issue.
At the same time, you specify the system responses if credit checks are set. The system can respond in the following ways:
     Warning message
The document can be saved.
     Error message
The document cannot be saved.
     Setting a delivery block (credit status)
The document can be saved. However a block is automatically set in the credit status.
Actions
1. Define for each sales document type whether a credit check should be carried out. Enter "D" if an automatic check should be carried out.
2. Specify a credit group.
3. Specify a credit group for the delivery type for which you want to carry out a credit check.
4. Specify a goods issue credit group for the delivery type for which

Different Credit control area in the AR invoice document

Hi all,
Our client has the line item display field turned on for the AR reconcilation account. When we run FBL3N for this account, we see a credit control area that is different from what is there on the customer line item in the invoice document.
When the invoice was entered in FB70, the default credit control area (that defaults from OB38 - co code assignment to cca) was manually overwritten. The invoice document, FBL5N and BSEG table show the new cca, but for some reason FBL3N for the recon account is still showing the old, default cca.
Did anyone come across a similar scenario?

Hi Chait!
I have the same problem do you get any positive response about this issue?
Thanks in advance!

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?

Credit Limit issue during PGI despite Credit available to customer

Dear All,
We have configured for Credit Management for Customer.
Everything was working perfectly fine for a very long time. But now there suddenly seems to be an issue. The customer has available credit but still the system does not allow us to do PGI. It gives an error message that the customer credit limit has been exceeded.
We checked in FBL5n and found that credit is available. There are no backlogs. But in FD32 we found that the credit exposure shows values in positive and the Blocked check box is ticked therefore blocking the customer. When we checked through Menu path - Environment - Sales & Distribution Docs - Open Orders and Open Deliveries , here we found that in table S067 there are open orders and open deliveries. But upon cross checking with VA05n and VL06/Vl04, we found no open deliveries or open sales orders.
This seems to us as a strange issue that the system is not updating the LIS table although we have not configured for LIS.
We contacted SAP for this and were given a temporary solution to execute program RVDREK77 to clear the table. But this dosent seem to be a permanent solution since we have to run this everyday as a background job. Also this program can be run only when no other transaction happens in SAP.
If anyone has faced a similar problem, I would request to suggest us a permanent solution for this.
Thanks & Regards,
Rohan Gudavalli.

Hi Rohan,
As per my understanding of the issue, There is problem in credit updation. To manage this you have to run the program RVKRED77. On executing this program system will reorganize the credit in case of update errors. Please have this execution done once in a week during week ends for required credit control areas. This is quite common problem we encounter regarding the updation of credit and the only way is to run the mentioned program periodically.
As you know normally in credit S066 and S067 information structures are involved in the updation. These information structures work in tandem with the update group which is assigned in OVA8 screen resulting in the updation of credit.
When an order is created S066 information structure gets effected and OEIKW field value gets increased.
When order is delivered S066-OEIKW gets decreased and S067-OLIKW gets increased.
When delivery is billed S067-OLIKW gets decreased and S067-OFAKW gets increased.
So credit is completely controlled by the information structures and the update group. Some times it happens that system will not be able to update the credit. To re-organize the credit incase of update errors please have a background job set up done prferably during week endsfor the program RVKRED77.
As you are saying that you have problem with only one customer; please check whether oldest open items check is evaluated.
Please use the program Check_CM to analyze the credit. On inputing the order number or the delivery number you can get the complete analysis of the credit done for the order or delivery.
Hope this explains.

Credit control

Dear friends,
In my implementation i stuck up with credit control. Any one of u guys helpme out of this problem. normally credit control is determined with respect to sales area(sales orgdchnldivison)
Proposed Org. structure look like above.
Here in Maharashtra single sales org will be maintained as a MSCDA
Distribution channels are named by Manufacturers (Aventis, cipla, Novartis etc)
Single divison is (pharma.)
We are capturing manufacturer divison as a material group in basic data1.

Credit control:
We have to maintain manufacturer division wise credit control in our sytem.
*i have to determine credit control area by sales are and material group,*
how can i do , pls provide me inputs on user exits for this

Hi Jadadish,
Here is the functionality of USEREXIT_AVAIL_CHECK_CREDIT, so I don't think it is the right one...
In the standard, when a credit-blocked document is released, a new availability check is run so that the items in the released document receive a confirmed quantity again. However, if it is necessary not to perform the ATP check in some situations because of the customer´s business needs, they could use the following userexit to disallow the ATP run: USEREXIT_AVAIL_CHECK_CREDIT. Please check notes 531793 and 575969 for further information about this issue.
Why not try USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAK (MV45AFZZ)?
Hope it helps.

There are basically two types of customers:
1)Credit worthy
2)Normal customers
Coming to credit worthy customers these customers we can believe and we will give some credit ness for them.For such a type of customers we are going to set them some credit limit.Based on that we will give service to them till that limit.It the limit crosses we will get the messages while creating orders for them.
Their credit limit can be set in FD32 T.Code.
Automatic credit check will be maintained in OVA8
Follow these steps:
1. Go to IMG - enterprise structure - definition - financial accounting - define credit control area.
2. Assignment of company code to credit control area & sales area to credit control area.
3. Go to OVAK select ur sales document type and in the check credit column choose from A B or C. D is for automatic credit control for which you have to maintain the credit group and risk categories.
4. In FD32 you select your customer and click on STATUS icon and press enter. here u maintain the credit amount allowed. but this is done by the Finance people.
5. Now when you create the sales order and if the amount exceeds the credit limit then u will get the message as you maintained in the TC OVAK. Normally the system starts doing credit checks from the second sales.

Credit Check happens only in SD module, never in FI. Because the stage of the check is in the sales cycle, which exists in SD. FI guys will check the credit master sheets of the customer, the MIS, the analysis etc, review the credit limits of customers. But the check will happen only in SD, while creating order, delivery or doing the goods issue.
All business have their own credit management needs, SAP allows you to specify your own automatic credit checks based on a variety of criteria. You can also specify at which critical points in the sales and distribution cycle the system carries out these checks.

Dear Experts,

Maintain credit limit in different currency then Credit Control Area

Hi,
I have a several credit control areas, some in USD and some are maintained in Canadian dollars (CAD).
We would like the credit limit of all of these to be maintained in USD. For the CAD based CCAr's though, it reads the credit limit in CAD. How can we specify that the credit limits for these CAD companies are in USD?
Thanks,

hi,
this is to inform you that,
here you have two options basing on your useage of CCA:
1. centralised CCA: on credit limit you can mainatain collectively.
2.decentralised CCA: you can define credit data for your customer for each company code.
so please analyse where your process stands and
one answer commonly is OB08 - please maintain exchange rates against USD & CAD.
hope this clears your issue
