Date that defines credit management
How is the date configured that affects credit management? I notice that the material avaialability date is being used to determine the credit date on our system. If an order is entered for the end of the month, but the material availability date is today, it will put the order on hold today, not in the future. That doesn't seem to make sense as I would only want to consider order for credit determination when the customer wants the order. The transportation time doesn' t come into play.
Is this because the material availability date affects production so if order is not credit approved, then the production facility won't actually make it until it is approved?
Per SAP OSS Note 379007 - Dynamic credit check - point 2, yes you are correct. It is based on material availability date. The note reads as below;
2. Update of the open sales order values:
Update of the open sales order values:The basis for the determination of the correct time interval is the material availability date of the schedule line (VBEP-MBDAT).
That doesn't seem to make sense as I would only want to consider order for credit determination when the customer wants the order.
Per standard business process, this is correct. When a quantity is confirmed at schedule line level, that will not be allocated to other order/delivery/customer. This means, the quantity is blocked for the customer. Imagine, in a business if thousands of quantity is confirmed, then equivalent value is also blocked for the business. If the customer does not want immediately, then the sales order can be put with a reason for rejection and when required, the business can remove the reason for rejection.

How can I create User Entered Additional Data Points in Credit Management?
I currently have a requirement to create additional data points in Credit Management (11i) that require a data analyst to input the value so that the score can be calculated.
For example: Does customer have a Qualified Audit Report?
If YES = +10 points added to score
If NO = 0 points added to score
I was able to add an additional data point and the case folder was assigned to an analyst, however when opening the case folder to input the missing data, the additional datapoint was not included in the case folder. Does anyone know what I may have missed in the setup?
Data Point was defined as follows and added to a checklist called TEST.
Data point: Unqualified
Category: (none)
Parent: (none)
Application: Receivables
Scoreable: Y
Enabled: Y
PL/SQL Package: (none)
Function: (none)
Thanks in advance.
Shauna
Edited by: sphelps on Sep 22, 2011 8:29 AMThe setup described above was correct. The datapoints did not show up in the case folder until the next day. I am assuming that maybe the changes required a bounce or a background process of some sort.

Not able to see specific tags for FSCM Credit Management on BP master data screen
Hi All,
I have already set up Collections & Dispute Management,
I am now on my way to start FSCM Credit Management setting up. I have already created the BP role (UKM000) and assigned it for direction customer to BP, but I am not able to see any specific tag on BP Master data related to Credit management, (just as I can see "Collections profile" tag, in reference to Coll. Mngmt).
So, I am not able to see these tags yet: "Credit profile", "Credit worthiness", "Cresit limit and control".....under Credit Management BP role!
What am I missing there? Have I got to activate BAdi UKM_R3_ACTIVATE in order to be able to "see" those BP tags???
....Or what else?
I will reward with points if someone can provide me any hint about this issue.
Thanks a lot.Hi Pallavi,
Many thanks for your quick response. However, I have not succeeded in seeing that tab.
Let me tell you, I may be confused by a document I downloaded from internet about the BP master data views (as for the FSCM Credit Management role, of course) . Please find below the commented tag. It is an imaged I copy to you from that document I told you, for you to see which tag I am talking about:
I don´t know the content of that tab...but I would like to see it in place....you know..
Now, I checked you last answer and I saw that everything was already set by factory, please find below:
BUS4 view:
BUS5 view:
However, I´m still not able to see the tab I told you at the beginning (first image). Am I confused about something here? Many thanks for your patience (these things happens when you set FSCM Credit Management for the first time).
Is that tag accesible?
Many thanks!

Dear sap gurus,
after implementing credit management in middle or not from beginning and if you want to have the history a particular customer updated in LIS or if we want to know about his credit exposure.
What should be done.Kindly help me.
regards,How To Do Configuration For Credit Management
Credit and risk management takes place in the credit control area. According to your corporate requirements, you can implement credit management that is centralized, decentralized, or somewhere in between.
An organizational unit that represents the area where customer credit is awarded and monitored. This organizational unit can either be a single or several company codes, if credit control is performed across several company codes. One credit control area contains credit control information for each customer.
For example, if your credit management is centralized, you can define one credit control area for all of your company codes.
If, on the other hand, your credit policy requires decentralized credit management, you can define credit control areas for each company code or each group of company codes.
Credit limits and credit exposure are managed at both credit control area and customer level. You set up credit control areas and other data related to credit management in Customizing for Financial Accounting. The implementation guide is under Enterprise Structure -> Definition or Assignment -> Financial Accounting and then Maintain credit control area. You assign customers to specific credit control areas and specify the appropriate credit limits in the customer master record.
Settings for determining the credit control area of a document. The settings of items 1 - 4 are taken into account according to their priority. The credit control area found is stored in field VBAK-KKBER.
1. Transaction OB38

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").

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.
Difference Between Simple and Automatic Credit Check Types
In automatic check, difference between static and dynamic checks.
SIMPLE CREDIT CHECK : Tr.Code - FD32
It Considers the Doc.Value + Open Items.
Doc.Value : Sales Order Has been saved but not delivered
Open Item : Sales Order has been saved , Delivered, Billed & Transfered to FI, but not received the payment from the customer.
Eg: Customer Credit Limit is Rs.1,00,000/-
Suppose Doc.Value + Open Item Value is Rs.1,10,000/-
Here credit limit exceeds then system reacts.
Options : A) Warning Message
B) Error Message (Sales Order won't be saved)
C) Error Message with Delivery Block
AUTOMATIC CREDIT CHECK : Give extra credit facilities to the particular customer.
STATIC CREDIT LIMIT DETERMINATION :Checking Group + Risk Catageory + Credit Control Area.
A) Credit Checking Groups : Types of Checking Groups.
01) Sales
02) Deliveries
03) Goods Issue
At all the above 3 levels orders can be blocked.
B) Risk Catageory : Based on the risk catageories company decide how much credit has to give to the customer.
HIGH RISK (0001) : LOW CREDIT
LOW RISK (0002) : MORE CREDIT
MEDIUM RISK(0003) : Average Credit
Static Credit Check it checks all these doc value & check with the credit limit
1) Open Doc.Value / Sales Order Value : Which is save but not delievered
2) Open Delivery Doc.Value : Which is delivered but not billed
3) Open Billing Doc.Value : Which is billed but not posted to FI
4) Open Item : Which is transfered to FI but not received from the customer.
DYNAMIC CREDIT CHECK : 1) Open Doc
2) Open Delivery
3) Open Billing
4) Open Items
5) Horizon Period = Eg.3Months
Here the System will not consider the above 1,2,3& 4 values for the lost 3 months
Then assign the Sales Doc & Del Documents.
Sales Doc.Type(OR) + credit Check(0) + Credit Group (01)
Credit Limit Check for Delivery Type : Del.Type (LF) + Del Credit
Group (02) + Goods Issue Credit Group (03)

Credit Management System - Update of SD Documents after CMS start
Hi,
we are starting CMS functionality in our SD module. CMS (Credit Management System) works remotely by an XI connection. When we switch to use CMS in production system, we have to transfer all opened orders (not yet invoiced) to CMS system.
How can we achieve it? Can program RFDKLI20 (t-code F.28) be used for this purpose? Does it require any settings to point out the CMS connection?
Thank you

Credit and risk management takes place in the credit control area. According to your corporate requirements, you can implement credit management that is centralized, decentralized, or somewhere in between.
An organizational unit that represents the area where customer credit is awarded and monitored. This organizational unit can either be a single or several company codes, if credit control is performed across several company codes. One credit control area contains credit control information for each customer.
For example, if your credit management is centralized, you can define one credit control area for all of your company codes.
If, on the other hand, your credit policy requires decentralized credit management, you can define credit control areas for each company code or each group of company codes.
Credit limits and credit exposure are managed at both credit control area and customer level. You set up credit control areas and other data related to credit management in Customizing for Financial Accounting. The implementation guide is under Enterprise Structure -> Definition or Assignment -> Financial Accounting and then Maintain credit control area. You assign customers to specific credit control areas and specify the appropriate credit limits in the customer master record.
Settings for determining the credit control area of a document. The settings of items 1 - 4 are taken into account according to their priority. The credit control area found is stored in field VBAK-KKBER.

XI and Credit Management in FSCM 6.0
Hello,
We have ERP2005 with FSCM and want to use the Credit Commitment interface ( http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_01/helpdata/en/43/2a1c518e5f601fe10000000a422035/frameset.htm ) to pass FI-AR data to SAP Credit Management via XI. The sender is the FI-AR system and the receiver is the SAP Credit Management system Both FI-AR and FSCM are on the same ERP2005 system and XI is on a seperate system.
I have downloaded the XI content for the the intefaces CreditCommitmentNotification_Out and CreditCommitmentNotification_In and set up the configurartion so messages come out of ERP and the determined receiver is the same ERP system but my problem is with the receiver communication channel. The SAP help link referenced above says I should be using the communication channel XIChannel. Can someone help me and tell me what type of communication channel this is and what I have to do set it up please.
Thanks in advance for your help.
PeteFelipe,
Thanks for the info it solved the problem and the interface works now. For future reference in case anyone has the same problem the scenario is as follows
Sender = ERP (FI module)
Sender interface = http://sap.com/xi/PI/FIN/Operational/Global
Sender namespace = CreditCommitmentNotification_Out
Receiver = ERP (FSCM)
Receiver interface = CreditCommitmentNotification_In
Receiver namespace = http://sap.com/xi/FSCM/Global
No interface mapping is required just set up the receiver determination with receiver determination to use a receiver communication channel of type XI.
Thanks,

Notes on Credit mangement
SAP SD Credit Management
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.
SM30 - Table/View
V_TVTW - Define Distribution Channel
V_TVTA_KKB - Assign sales area to credit control area
V_T014 - FI - Define Credit Control Area
T001CM - FI - Assign Permitted Credit Control Area to company code
OVXG - Set up Sales Areas
e.g. Sales Organization
Distribution Channel
Division
Distribution Channel
Division
FD32 - Customer Credit Management
OVAK - Define credit limit check by sales document type
Check Credit
A - Credit limit check and warning message
B - Credit limit check and error message (no sales order can be created)
C - Credit limit check and delivery block (block delivery if hit credit limit)
Options B and C -> used for checking open order values (when you create/change the sales order)
D - Automatic credit control with open order values
More control in transaction OVA8 - Automatic credit control
You check for open orders and deliveries, or just open deliveries.
or open order values with other options
Credit group
Allows you to combine different sales document types for the credit limit check
VKM1 - Blocked SD Documents - Finance have to released the delivery block
OVAD - Define credit limit check by delivery order
whether the automatic credit check occurs at the time of delivery creation and/or goods issue
OVA7 - Define credit limit check by item category
Set whether to include/exclude item category for credit limit check
OVA6 - Define credit group. You can groups together different business transactions which should be dealt with in the same manner with regard to the credit check.
You enter the credit groups when you configure the sales document types for credit management and define the (D - automatic credit check).
SAP default credit groups
01 - credit group for sales order
02 - credit group for delivery
03 - credit group for goods issue
OVA8 - Automatic credit control - Double click on the line items
You can have the followings credit limit check :-
Static
Depends on the customer total value of open orders, deliveries, billing documents and open items.
Open items
No of days open
Overdue open items checks is based on the ratio of open items that are overdue by a certain number of days.
Max open items %
The customer balance must not exceed a certain percentage.
Oldest open items
If you don't want to deliver to the customer at all when even only 1 invoice is overdue.
Tick the Check for Oldest Open Item and Set the field Days oldest item = 1.
Days oldest item
No of days allowed for overdue or payment terms.
Use of the credit check Oldest Open Item. If a user attempts to alter the order quantity of a released sales document
that was previously blocked, it would be reblocked again by the system. The system only reblocks the sales document if the new order quantity is above a certain % amount.
Released documents are still unchecked
The preset % is whatever you want to set it as when configuring your automatic credit processing. You enter a deviation % and number of days,eg, you can set it so that an order can be changed by up to 10% within 30 days of original order entry date without it going back on credit block.
Next Review Date
If a customer has a credit limit of 1000 USD, and you would like to restrict this credit limit only to be available in current month (say March). If the document day is in April then the credit limit is zero.
You can use the "NextReview date" and "Number of days" fields and combined it with the "Last int.review" field in customer credit master "Status" view (FD32).
VOKR - Display of work list for credit management (configure the display variant)
Free goods determination
Free Goods Determination in Sales Order
Free goods has the following limitations:
- Free goods can only be supported on a 1:1 ratio. This means that an order item can lead to a free goods item. Agreements in the following form are not supported: With material 1, material 2 and material 3 are free of charge or If material 1 and material 2 are ordered at the same time, then material 3 is free of charge.
- Free goods are not supported in combinations with material structures (for example, product selection, BOM, variants with BOM explosion).
- Free goods are only supported for sales orders with document category C (for example, not quotations).
- Free goods are not supported for deliveries without reference to a sales order.
- Free goods cannot be used in make-to-order production, third-party order processing and scheduling agreements.
- If you defined a free goods for variants in a generic article (only SAP Retail), you can only process the variants in the purchase order and goods receipt individually (as single articles). In other words, you cannot process them using the generic article matrix.
4.6x
Not all Sales Order can be used for free goods determination. You have to check the SD document category if it does not work. Only category 'C' are supported. Check transaction VOV8.
Assume that you want to configure an inclusive FREE goods routine. Customers must order a minumum quantity of 5 before any free goods can be assign. For every quantity of 3, the customer will be given 1 free goods.
WC07 - Maintain Number Range Intervals

AKOF u2013 Define reconciliation accounts without credit management update
Hello,
Wu2019ve configured Credit management, at same time, we have many special G/L indicators, and hence many alternative reconciliation accounts. Now we need to exclude few for credit management check.
I understand that using AKOF u2013 Define reconciliation accounts without credit management update, we can achieve the same.
Initially I thought that putting the alternative reconciliation accounts will be sufficient, but if I check the help page in SPRO beside this configuration, it also talks about, some setup for u201CReconciliation account ready for inputu201D in master record of reconciliation accounts, etc.
Please help me in understanding how actually AKOF works, and how I can achieve the objective.
Thanks

How to use due date in credit management
hi,
i want to calculate my credits according to net due date
how can i use due date in credit management?
thank youNot sure what do you mean by "use due date in credit management".
If you want to calculate due date per billing document, for example, for such as customer statement, you may use "BSID-ZFBDT + BSID-ZBD1T" (Baseline date + Cash disc day 1). -
