Credit Limit for 2 customers

How do you setup an approval procedure to check a shared credit limit for 2 customers simultaneously? The credit limit is shared between the 2 customers which can be linked thorugh a UDF.
Example: Joint credit limit Cust1 and Cust2: $10,000
Outstanding orders for Cust1: $5,000
Outstanding orders for Cust2: $3,000
Available credit for any of them: $2,000.
If an order exceeds $2,000 in this example, it should trigger the Approval Procedure.
Cust1 and Cust2 can be linked through UDF U_CustGroup (or any other suggested field)
What would be the Query to use please?
Thanks,
A Castri

Hi Gordon, thanks again for response. The UDF will link a customer to its sibling (and back). Credit limit will be set at the same value for both customers. This is how I visualize it, but I don't know if a Query would be enough:
TotAvailCredit = CreditLimit - (Balance Cust1 + Balance Cust2)
If Total from Quote or Invoice > TotAvailCredit then trigger approval procedure.
Do you still think an SDK-based development would be needed, or just a Query would be sufficient?
Thanks,
Andres

Fixing the Credit Limit for customers

Hi Experts,
My client wants the system to automatically fill the credit limit of say $0 for a customer having Incoterms as 004.
They want this to happen for each and every customer who is having incoterms as 004.
Manually Maintaining in FD33 is not agreed by them.
Please let me know if there is any standard settings that i can do to have this or do we require any Enhamcement.
Below is the screen shot of requirement.
Thanks in advance!!!!
Alam

Hi Mehboob,
It is not possible in Standard systme, you will need to create a Z table on what basis the credit limit to be updated in customer master. Once that is fixed, credit limit will get automatically.
Further you check with your technical team for same.

Temporarily Increase Customer credit limit for va01

Hi,
My requirement is we want increase credit limit for customers for 1 or 2 days in temporarily basic or va01 order release purpose .
I maintained customer wise temporary credit & valid from and to dates in a z-table. How to solve this problem without using credit management FD32.
regards,
moon.

Your requirement to increase Credit LImit of Customer for 1 - 2 days based on a Z-Table is not possible in SAP Standard. Also you dont want to use FD32.
Now in OVA8, Under Checks you have three Boxes for User 1, 2, & 3. There are the Enchancement Points give by SAP for you to implement your Z-Requirment in Credit Management.
You Requirement will have to be mapped in a Z-Development, speak to your ABAPer & he can write a code in User Exit which will refer your Z-Table & do the needful.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Can v set credit limit for a vendor? if so, how?

can v set credit limit for a vendor? if so, how?

Hello
the two replies are correct that the redit limit is always used for customers. but i can give you the scenario as per the request and Amrita please correct me if i am making something wrong.
as per vendors there are three to four vendors are available for buying a material. we are not using quota arrangement but we just distribute the order based on the situations. the order is given to a vendor who is quoting low price, giving the required quality and quantity and supplying as per our need. there is one more criteria for choosing this vendor. the outstanding balance for this vendor should not cross some limit.
the limit may be based on negotiations and the some contracts' terms and conditions.
the solution for this may be that there should be one report where you can see how much we owe to each vendor. this could be possible only when we know the Vendor g/l account and the corresponding balances.
i think i have cleared the credit idea as well as given the solution. please reward if found it helpful.

Total Credit Limit for Co. code

Hi sappers,
I want to fix a total credit limit for Co. code sothat the aggregate of credit limit fixed for every Customer cannot exceed that total credit limit.

There is nothing as standard that will allow you to do this.
Not sure why you would want to restrict this.
However it can be done with a bit of coding.
You will need to make sure you Credit Control Area only had the single Company Code.
You would then need to store the total amount of the Company Code in a Z table.
You would then need to use a user exit in the change and create credit master record in FD32 to check the total of all credit limits for the credit control area was not greater than your total for the Company Code.
if this is too much for you, you will have to manage this manually and report on the total credit limits for all customers in the credit control area.

Additional Credit Limit for certain period

Dear Friends,
My Client want a functionality where we can give additional credit limit for particular customer for particular duration.
Since the value for each customer will vary we cannot use credit limit seasonal factor in OVA8.
I want to maintain a Z Table with Customer No., From Date, To date and additional limit.
But how can I force the system to add this value in credit limit given in FD32 while performing credit check in sales order.
We are using the static credit check and in same functionality this additional limit value should be added if customer is maintained in Z table and if it falls within specified date.
Please advice.
Regards
Mayank

Dear Mayank
If possible make different credit control areas.
decentralised credit management.
for each credit limit , set the credit amount.
change the credit control area for the customers as per additional credit limit .
A proper setting in FD32 , OVA8 and horizon period may give the results,
just an example-
                                 ex1      / ex2
credit controlarea - ABC      / xyz
Credit amount      - 100$     / 150$
horizon period     - 2months / 1month

I want to set dynamic customer credit limit for a customer

Hi,
I want to set a dynamic credit limit for a customer which should trigger during the time of Sales Order Creation.
Can anyone please let me know the settings one has to do to implement this process in the system ?

Hi Below is the whole process for confign.
1. Transaction OB38
   Check which credit control area is assigned to the company code.
   Company code:
   Credit control area:
2. Transaction OVFL
   Check which credit control area is assigned to the sales area.
   Sales area:
   Credit control area:
3. Transaction XD02 or VD02
   Check which credit control area is assigned to the payer.
   Payer:
   Credit control area:
4. Transaction SE37
   Is user exit EXIT_SAPV45K_001 being used?
5. Transaction OBZK
   For the settings under items 2 - 4, field "All company codes" must be marked in Transaction
   OB45, or the credit control area must be entered under the relevant company code in table
   T001CM of the credit control areas allowed.
   Company code:
   Credit control areas allowed:
6. Settings for the credit checks
7. Transaction OVAK
   Which settings do exist for the sales document type used?
   Sales document:
   Check credit:
   Credit group:
8. Transaction OVAD
   Which settings do exist for the delivery type used?
   Delivery type:
   Credit group for delivery:
   Credit group for goods issue:
9. Transaction OB01
   Credit management/Change risk category
   Definition of the risk category for each credit control area. This risk category can be
   assigned to a credit account by using Transaction FD32.
10. Transaction OVA8
    Here, the individual credit checks for key fields
    o credit control area
    o risk category
    o credit group are set. Take these key fields from the above settings and go to the detail
      screen. In particular, check whether fields "Reaction" and "Status/block" are set
      correctly. To carry out follow-up actions in case of a credit block, the credit check
      status must be set (field "Status/block").
11. Transaction FD32
    Credit master data for the payer of the relevant document.
    Credit account:
    Credit limit:
    Risk category:
    Currency:

    check (static or dynamic credit limit check).
13. Transaction OVA7
    Update of the credit value is active for the corresponding item type if the check box is marked. This field corresponds to
    field "Active receivable" in Transaction VOV7.
    Item type:
    Active receivable:
14. Transaction V/08, Pricing
    In the pricing procedure used for pricing, subtotal "A" must be entered in a line for
    determining the credit value (mark the pricing procedure and doubleclick on "Control").
    Usually, the net value plus taxes is used. This way the system is determined to use this
    subtotal for credit pricing. The credit price is stored in field VBAP-CMPRE and used for
    update and credit check.
    You can find the used pricing procedure of the order under "Item -> Condition -> Analysis".
    Pricing procedure:
    Line with subtotal = 'A':
15. Transaction OB45
    Which update group (field "Update") do you use in the relevant credit control area? The
    default setting is "12". If you use another update group, check whether this is fine with
    you. If you open an OSS message, please tell us the alternative update group.
    Credit control area:
    Update:
16. Transaction OMO1
    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.

Productwise credit limit for a customer

Hi All,
Is it possible to maintain credit limit productwise (Divisionwise )for a customer.
we sell different products like Washing machine,Air conditioner ,Refrigrator etc which we classify as division in SD Module . we want to maintain credit limit for a customer productwise.ie seperate limit for Washing Machine, Air Cond and ref etc .
same should be checked at the time of creating sales order (VA01).
If some one have any solution for the above scenario please let me know.
Thanks & Regards
Meenakshi

Hi,
There is no standard functionality available to have the credit limits at product level, but try to build the logics and process through the three exits available in credit Management.
Also,
You can do is set credit limit, Credit control area wise.
You can use multiple credit control area, and assign the CCA to separate sales areas ( That will represent the different Region / Products, as per your requirement).
The assignment can be done in the below path:
IMG> Enterprise Structure>Assignment>Sales and Distribution>Assign sales area to credit control area
Here for combination of Sales Organisation , Distribution channel and Division you can assign separate credit control areas.
While the Distribution channels can be defined Region wise, the Divisions can be defined Product wise.
Now in FD32, Set the Credit limit of the customer , Credit control area wise.
regards,
Siddharth.

Payment/Credit Limit for Vendors

Hi SAP Gurus!
Is it possible to impose a maximum payment/credit limit for Vendors in SAP?
I saw in this forums that it can be done through Contracts but in the contracts, you have to enter a material. Is it possible that you don't have a material and the contract will encompass all the transactions of the vendor?\
Hope to hear from you soon!
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can make use of following Features of Contract w/o materials;
Item Categories in Contracts: -
Just as with purchase orders, you can enter an item category to define the item as an external service item, a consignment item, a subcontracting item or as a free-form text item.
Item Category M (Material Unknown)
Item category M is for entering contract items without specifying the material number.
Item category M is recommended for similar materials with the same price but with differing material numbers.
Example
Consider a contract item for different types of office paper. The various types of paper have the same weight, quality, and price. However, they differ in the following respects: One type is lined, another is unlined, and another has two holes on the left side for filing purposes.
How Do You Use Item Category M?
In the case of items of category M, you enter the short text (short description), target quantity, unit of measure, and price. As soon as a contract release order is created, the material number or a short text is entered (e.g. the exact type of paper, say, two-hole punched). The system determines the net price on the basis of the gross price entered, less any discounts.
Item Category W (Material Group)
Item category W allows you to enter a material group without entering the value or quantity of the contract item. Item category W is for value contracts only.
Example
Consider a contract for cable. The contract covers every type of cable on the vendor's price list. The exact type of cable is known only at the time a specific cable is ordered.
Instead of entering an item for every type of cable the vendor is able to supply, you could enter item category W and the material group (say, CABLE). The short text would indicate that the contract item covers all types of cable supplied by the vendor.
Each release order issued against this contract would then specify the actual type and quantity of cable (for example, double-shielded coax, 1 spool) as well as the price.
How Do You Use Item Category W?
When you create the contract item, enter the item category W, the short text, and the material group. You do not enter a price or conditions for the item. However, it is possible to specify conditions in the document header. For example, you can enter a discount in the header conditions if the vendor grants a discount on all Pos relating to the contract. The discount is automatically taken into account when the release order is created.
You can enter a material number in the contract release order. The corresponding material master record must be assigned to the same material group specified in the referenced contract item. If the release order does not have a material number, then it must contain a valid account assignment, such as a cost center.
Also refer following link;
[Item Category/Account Assgt. Category in Contracts|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/75/ee1fa755c811d189900000e8322d00/frameset.htm]

Extend credit limit for particular term

On credit management,
If I want to extend credit limit for only particular from-to date, how can i do it?
I know about "credit limit seasonal factor" on OVA8, but this customization can give
only percentage base. I want to extend by amount base.
BR
Y.Kaneko

Hi,
Std SAP provides credit limit to be maintained as a seasonal factor only in %.
In case of amount based maintenance, the same has to be maintained/developed using a custom modification described in [this|credit limit; thread.

FSCM-Credit limit for group of customer

Hi all,
    Please advised how to set up in FSCM-CR for the following scenario.
    I would like to set up credit limit for a group of customer. such as BP A is subsidiary of BP B.
    BP B have credit limit 100,000 USD. BP A have no credit limit, but using credit limit of BP A.
    I known in SD-credit, we can set up credit account of customer A in FD32 equal to customer B.
Regards,
Jenny

Hi Jenny,
'Credit account' concept in FD32 acts as credit delegation to parent account.
- this delegation turned out to be simple tool, but vulnerable to hedge group-wide credit risk.
In FSCM version, SAP has strengthen this 'week form' of risk management, which sometime has troubled us.
FSCM has two kinds of credit control models for group-level credit control;
one is main/sub model and another is business partner relationship
Suppose you prefer to 'business partner relationship model'.
* Scenario and expected result;
'business partner relationship model' is different from 'credit account' concept, in that it both credit- checks for 'BP A' and 'BP B'. However, I guess that you could achieve goal if you set as below;
firstly, map BP A and BP B as business partner relationship
(BP A is lower, BP B is higher)
Secondly, assign to different risk category; BP A to no risk category, BP B to high risk category
(I supposed both A and B has same CCA(credit segment))
Thirdly, maintain 'OVA8'(Define Automatic Credit Control) differently
eg. no risk category => no message, high risk category => error message
wish your test and verification.
Best regards,
TED

Query for credit limit of customers of a particular type

Hi,
We are using SAP B1 2007B PL04 and want to activate credit limit so that whenever a delivery or A/R breaches the credit limit then the document must go for approval. However we want this to be activated only when the customers are having group code say 110 and not for others.
So basically could you all help me with a query which would do the following
1. check whether customer for whom delivery or A/R is being generated belongs to group having croup code 110
2. check if the credit limit set in BP master for that customer will be breached if the delivery or A/R is made (ie Current A/R or delivery amount when added to current outstanding will exceed the credit limit)
3. if yes then will activate approval procedure and send the document for approval as per approval template
Thanks
regards
Pradipta
