Credit management for consignment sale

Hi,
It is well accepted that in Standard SAP , for consignment sale process credit check is done in Consignment issue level as in this phase material stock is logically got diminished from valuated stock. But business dynamics need some solution with nature of business needs and from that point we need that how the same can be managed with consignment fill up. Consignment fill up is the stage where material is moved from plant gate to reach consignment agent's premises which is geographically may be located far away and this is the phase where user can want the credit check before dispatching more quantity with that of payment have received or with a threshold value of credit limit though the stock is under ownership of plant and that same will be transferred to customer after consignment issue.
now we have configured system in that way, KBN and KEN item category has been configured perfectly as needed(like credit indicator checked for KBN and unchecked for KEN item category).
But the problem is faced like following way.
Suppose I am doing a transaction of delivery against a consignment fill up order with value of 2 Lakh with that much credit limit and after making the delivery it got updated in FD32 open sales value (2 Lakh) which is correct in this context.
Secondly at the time of consignment issue delivery further open sales value is not updated with 2 Lakh which is also correct(as credit check is inactive as it should not be update the open sales value as 4 Lakh)
Lastly when we are preparing the consignment commercial invoice with reference of consignment issue delivery then after posting 2 lakh got updated in receivables in FD32 which is also correct but at the same time open value should be diminished to zero which is not updating and this is wrong as then credit exposure is calculated wrongly for next transaction. so huge value will be accumulated in open sales value for consigmeet agent and the same cannot be rectified by standard program RVKRED77 like normal customers.
So please explore what may be the solution for the same(may be any configuration setting) or if there any another correction program exists.

Dear Mr. Lakhshmipati,
Thanks for your reply.
I need the input to be given that we are running the credit check with update group 000015 . So in this case S066- OEIKW will not update anytime.
As per note 492831 is declaring that for consignment fill up if the credit indicator is active but the table S066 - OEIKW will not update for open sales value in case of consignment fill up
But we have tested that after creation of the delivery against consignment fill up open sales value updated in FD32 (as item category KBN has set as credit active) and the same figure is coming from the table S067 - OLIKW.
But it is not duplicated with creation of the delivery from consignment issue(as for item catefory KEN this check is inactive) and after creation of the commercial invoice receivable got updated but same value should be cleared from S067 - OLIKW.
You can understand the situation.
Now there can be three aspects of it. Please check my points below and suggest if I am wrong.
1. For update group 000015, this table S067 is updated for delivery of fill up in standard SAP but never adjusted in after that and also there is no standard program for correction. So in this case either we have to forcefully update the table (by exit or by program) though it should not be the practice as there may be some inconsistency or we should discard this process.
2. We have to deactivate the credit check at consignment fill up level and to carry with credit check at consignment issue level as in that case under update group 000015 , after creation of commercial invoice posting receivables got updated with modification of open sales value by diminishing that much value.
3. We have to withdraw the credit check for case of consignment agent.
please suggest if any other aspect keeping in mind that we have to try our best to reach the requirement of credit check at consignment fill up stage as material should be blocked for delivery before vehicle starts from factory gate.
with last effort if there is really no way , so we have to go with standard SAP.

Credit Management for different Sales Order Types

Hello All,
The problem is related to Credit Management for Sales Order which is explained below with an example -
We have separate Sales Order Types for New Launches (ZNLS) & Normal Depot Sales (ZDPS) but both the Order Types are assigned with same pricing procedure and respective orders will be raised against the same party code.Now automatic credit check is only active for order type ZDPS where the credit limit had been set to Rs.1000. Now Rs,.500 had already been raised using order type ZDPS, then another sales order of Rs. 500 is raised using order type ZNLS.But when a sale order of Rs. 550 is raised using order type ZDPS the sales order is getting blocked, because the system had taken into consideration & added up the Rs. 500 value of ZNLS with previous value of Rs. 500 against order type ZDPS as a result of automatic credit check though it is not active for order type ZNLS.Point to be noted that Credit exposure is also not active for Order Type ZNLS.
How is this taken into consideration & what are the steps need to be configured so that the credit limit check will not get automatically activated for order type ZNLS and only remain active for order type ZDPS despite they are assigned to same pricing procedure and used for invoicing same party code?
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards
Priyanka Mitra

Hi Mitra,
The issue occurs because of the fact that credit check and the
update of the credit values are separate processes which are also
controlled separately by the respective customizing:
1. credit check is controlled by transactions OVAK and OVA8.
According to the attachment, you have already refered to note 18613 to
check the customizing settings.
2. update of the credit values is controlled by VOV7 or OVA7: "credit
acttive" flag. The 'Credit active' setting only affects the credit
update of the SD credit values (open orders, open delivery and open
billing documents). This flag has no control on the credit check. So
if for an order type, there is no credit check in OVAK and OVA8 but
the "credit active" flag is set for the item category, the order will
update the credit values even if no credit check is performed for the
order.
If the flag "credit active" is not set, the system will not update the
open credit values. On the other hand, the system ALWAYS updates the FI
credit value 'Open receivable' when the billing document is transferred
to Accounting. So, although you deactivated the "Credit active" flag in
in OVA7 or VOV7, such an item will increase the 'Open receivables' and
thus the credit limit used when the corresponding billing document is
posted to Accounting.
If you would like the value from sales order type ZNLS is excluded from credit update, you could consider set the "Credit Active" field as blank in VOV7 for the item category used for ZNLS.
Best regards,
Smile

Repeat credit checking for released sales orders

Hi,
We are implementing FSCM Credit management in our project. In our system, when the sales order is created, the credit check will happen and the failed orders will go to VKM1. Till the order is released, any change to that order will trigger the credit checking process.
But once the credit block is released in VKM1, Credit checking is triggering only for
Quantity change
Adding new line items
Credit checking is not triggering for any other changes to the SO like deleting the line item changing the payment terms etc..
I would like to know if there is any control in FSCM Credit management to repeat the credit checking process for the released sales orders.
Appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks
Prabhakar

Hi Prabhakar,
Navigate to Financial Supply Chain Management--> Credit Management--> Integration with sales and distribution-->define automatic credit control.
Over there you need to check critical fields check box for this to happen. Hope this helps

Credit management for IT industry

Hi,
As we want to use credit management functionality of SAP but really not understand how to implement it
Means at level check should be happen because we are a service industry where we have contract with customer for varying periods 1 year,2 year....etc and accordingly resources are deployed in it.
So our current process is we create the sales contract and do the billling of it.
So at what event ny credit event should trigger-- I can't stop billing bcoz efforts are already been put by resources and i can't check at order level as contract is for long period.
What is the actual process of credit management in a n IT industry ?

Warnings in FSCM Credit Management for negative credit check.

Hello,
I am implementing FSCM Credit Management. I have below requirement.
At the time of creation of sales order, if credit limit is exceeded then only warnings are required, Sales order should not go in the block (as available in earlier SAP AR Credit Management)
Is this also possible in FSCM Credit Management ? As in the configuration for credit rules, in the log , only extensive log, no log & error message is supported. Follow up event also has option of blocking business partner or workflow once credit check is performed & if it is negative.
Thanks in advance.
Abhishek Govilkar

In the " View for maintainace of Autometic Credit control" screen under the "checks tab"

Credit management module at Sales order creation

Hello Folks,
Can I confirm that when a sales order is created and customer master data code entered, eg , Payer or sold-to party or ship-to party, SD will integrate with Credit management module and do a credit check even before sales order is saved?
Likewise, at order creation stage, SD can also integrate with Project system for milestone billing?
With MM, SD checks the availabilty of material at order creation.
SAP SD integrates with CO only at PGI (via table 30 of MM ) and billing stage.
regards
Tom

The Credit Management check only for the payer's credit. The Credit Check can be configured to check even before the sales order is saved.
Goto T.Code OVA8 or SPRO>Sales & Dist>Basic Functions>Credit Management/Risk Management>credit management>Define Automatic Credit Control
Here you can configure. Check the field Item Check on the top left hand side.

Problem with credit managment for FI-documents

Hello,
is there any possibility to modify the value "Total receivables" for the creditmanagment?
I customize the position-type as not active for "credit active" and the values for the sales part are set correctly for the credit managment.
But everytime I create an invoice and the FI-documents are created, the value for the "total receivable" in report
RFDKLI40 is wrong.
If I create a new sales document then, the creditmanagment checks with the wrong value from "total receivable" and that´s wrong.
Line " where vbeln = lt_vbrk-vbeln
and cmpnt space."
in report LVFDSF02 is set.
Thanks for your help

After Apple tightened up some security issues the stores have been a bit more picky about the format of the billing address. Most folks who have encountered this issue have been able to solve it using the standardized addressing format created by the US Postal Service. Go to the USPS Zip Code lookup website and enter your address. Copy your address exactly as the USPS formats and presents it into your iTunes account.

Credit Block for released sales order

Dear All,
I have got one issue. There is a sales order which was created earlier say 15 days back. It went into the credit block at the time of saving it. It was released through VKM3 too.
Now when i change any field in the sales order today, it is going into the credit block. We are not changing any value of any of the item. Just maintaining the Billing block in it or remobving the Billing block.
The number of days maintained in the OVA8 are 182. So as per the standard functionality it should not go into the credit block for any change in the sales order like changing the billling date or changing the billing block.
Can you please let me know what might be the reason for this sales order to go into the credit block..??? Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Vishi.

Dear Vishi
Please check if you have checked the critical fields option.
Credit check against critical fields (fixed value dates)
The indicator controls the critical field check. If the field is selected, the system checks whether critical fields have been changed.
Use
If a check is carried out, the following fields are relevant:
Payment terms
Additional value days
Fixed value date
Note
Use this type of check for sales documents only.

Assigning sales manager for a sales org

hi experts
where to assign the sales manager for a particular sales org. (sales area)???

Hi
You need to first create a partner function by that name sales manager in partner determination in customizing. You then need to create a sales manager in XD01/VD01 and assign this in the partner functions tab to your customer (sold to party) for which you want to create sales transactions.
Hope this helps

Credit management for advance payment

Hi
If the customer pays any advace system have to consider that amount also for credit check
the example as follows
customer credit limit 300000 as on to day
customer receivables 300000 as on to day
customer advance 200000 as on to day
If i create the sales order for 10000 to day, system is blocking the order to deliver because of credit limit exceed, what i want to do if the customer having advance it should not block the deliver.

Credit management with different sales organization

hi,
one cusotmer master code with different sales area, can i separate the credit limit? pls advice. thanks

Dear Friend,
Pls proceed as follows for implementaing credit control at sales Area level:
1.Define two control Areas e.g C1 & C2 in enterprise structure(Definition)
2.Do not assign the Company code with control area howver keep the "overwrite CC" tab checked (SPRO-Assignement of control area with company code)
3.Assign Sales Area e.g S1 & S2 with control Area C1 & C2
4.Now define credit limit in FD32 for customer in control area C1 & C2
Pls note the control area will be derived automaticaly in case of sales transactions however while posting thru FI control should be a mandatory field in all transactions affecting cutomer ledger balance.you would be required to take help from Fi for this.
Following areas of FI needs changes:
1.Incoming payment & down payments
2.Credit or debit notes
3.Manual clearing of payments with Invoices.
Pls do ask if any other calrification is required.

Sanjay

Credit Management for Deliveries

Dear SAPians,
Have some questions regarding the above topic:
My setting in OVA8
Open items (ticked) Reaction (B) Status (ticked) Max.open.item % (0) NoDays openI (61)
Questions:
1) On occasions when there are open items outstanding which exceeds 60 days, the message 'Max % open items exceed' appears when creating Delivery Note. System does not allow me to save the DN. After releasing the Sales Order via VKM3, sometimes it allows me to create and save the DN. Other times it does not work. Can anyone advise me on this problem?
2) I would like to know how does the system actually handle the config above when there is a credit check on maximum % open items. Is it thru VKM3 credit release or getting customers to settle the outstanding open item?
Thank you.
Regards,
David

Dear GSL,
Thanks for the info. I would like to keep the config that way to track all open items for credit check purpose. It would be good if you can help to answer the questions I posed as they are the my main concern.

David
