Dunning letter error

Under the Insurance Log when trying to print a dunning letter in advance print I keep receiving this error "RuntimeException; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException." Does anyone know how I can correct the error...
This is only happening on newer "Jobs" that we have in our system... maybe I am missing something along the lines in setup??

Aha, I saw this back in 2008, and the solution was the same. I see that I had a ticket out with Primavera at the time, but all that history is lost now. So I'm not sure if I ever figured out the underlying cause.
Cheers,

Dunning Letter Creation in XMLP running into Error

Hi All,
Although I'm trying to create a report from the seeded Dunning Letter concurrent program that is giving the intended XML files but when running the XML Report Publisher Concurrent program, the program is erroring out with the following error:

As u can c from the error, it seems to indicate that I'm using the method 'set_xslt_locale' which evidently I'm not using in my Template. Does anyone 've any ideas as to why this error is been thrown out.
I even tried putting a template with just the text as 'This is a test Template' in the RTF Template. I still get the above errors.
Any potential workaround too greatly appreciated.
Thanks for ur time.

One thing of note is that when I downloaded the template using XDOLOADER, the xml publisher seems to 've created a .xsl file that has reference to the method mentioned above. So although, I'm not referencing it, XMLPublisher created .xsl is referencing it n hence the error. Also, I do remember having read that 'set variable..' method refernced above is only available for a higher version of XMLP. I think I'm on 5.0.
So the question is do I've to upgrade to 5.5 or can I make do with 5.0 version? I would love to get around this problem without the upgrade.
Thanks

Dunning letter print output error

Dunning Letter Generate and Custom Dunning Letter Print is not giving an output.
The message is: "The file cannot be opened because it has no pages."
Does anyone knows what might be the reason? and how to make Dunning letter work again..this is something urgent because this error is right now in the production and the users are really facing problems without the Dunning Reports
I really appreciate for the quick response
Thanks in advance!
Best,KK

We have customized Dunning Letter
It used to work perfectly sometime back ...I dont know what went wrong suddently it is giving error when tried to run Custom Dunning Letter Print gving error "The file cannot be opened because it has no pages." [/b
Not able to understand what might be wrong??
I checked data for one customer in EBS (Customers>Customer Standard>Input customer number (xxxxxx)>Button Find>Button Ok>Button Open>Tab Characteristics) Even though in EBS form I saw that Language field contains value but respective field in DB was empty.
My question when we run Dunning Letter from which level does oracle picks up the language??
Is it from Address level of the customer??
We have different environments which are clones of production. when I tried to run Dunning Letter in DEV environment which is used for building and testing which was a recent clone of production, it worked for me...not able to understand why it is not working in production??

Dunning Letter Print layout

hi experts
i am interested in editing the Printlayout of the Dunning Letter(under Sales-wizard reminder)
i actually want to ad in a repeating area the Doc Sum which is the Total Amount but the problem i found is that i cannot call in a text field the variable is called in the main body of the letter.
to be more specific, i want to add in the following text
The following is an amount to be paid amount here
the amount which can be taken by the Doc Sumfileds under a repetaing area.
while clicking on this field of the area it mentions that calls data from a variable.xxx
by adding to the above text this info, while printing there is an error that cannot be printed due to the variable cannot be found
do you have any idea?
Edited by: Fasolis Vasilios on Sep 21, 2011 11:26 AM

Hi,
To make it clear you want to put the value from Repetitive Area to Header?
Please state the exact error message?
Is it something like the value is not yet evaluated or executed?
Try inserting formula from the Header:
Concat(Field_xxx)
Where Field_xxx is the desired field.
Thanks.

Dunning letter BG

I would like to display 4 levels in script for dunning letter BG for Bank Guarantee.
Bank Guarantee Dunning letters (BGDL) are reminders that are sent out to customers with overdue and outstanding Bank guarantees.
In KONE Germany 4 dunning levels will be used; the 4 th dunning level represent the legal level.
Officially Germany has only 3 dunning levels for output but use the 4 dunning level plus a manual to-be enter dunning block, to track the legal cases.
The first dunning letter will be sent out to the customer (AR) if he has outstanding BG that are overdue.
Dunning level 2 will be used for outstanding open items that are 14 days overdue.
Dunning level 3 will apply to outstanding open items that are 28 days overdue.
Dunning level 4 represent the legal dunning after 42 days overdue and special dunning block after given to layer or collection agency. No dunning print out.
I copied standard script and doing changes .
Configuration location is given below.
Financial Accounting > Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable > Business Transactions > Dunning > Dunning Procedure > Define Dunning Procedures (F150)
u2022 Program Name: RIPRJT00 and form name F150_BE_DUNN_01.
Any body knows dunning letter form user want to display form in 4 levels .
1st level contain different infomation
2nd level contain different information
3rd level contain different information
4th level contain different information
user is creating test data for each form when he select first level it should trigger first level dunning information same way all levels.
Which base it will trigger I am thinking it will trigger by text element
1st level text element 511
2nd level text element 512
3rd level text element 513
4th level text element 514
Please suggest me the logic for doing.

Import Crystal Reports Dunning letter as SAP Business One layout

Hello,
I have created a dunning letter in Crystal Reports. I want to import this layout as a layout (not a report) in Business One.
Problem is that I don't know the parameters in the report so I can import the layout between the standard PLD layouts (like Dunning 1, dunning 2 dunning 3 dunning all etc). I tried a few but import fails everytime. You also don't get any errormessage when the layout cannot be imported.
Anybody knows what parameters to use in this report? Thanks.
Regards Thijs

Hello Gordon/ Rahul,
Thanks for yor reply.
I already created a Crystal report that runs as a report. In this case you select the WizardName and the report will give an output of all dunning letters in this report.
Unfortunately it is not possible to import this report because when I do that I only get the error that SAP Business One couldn't import the layout. EXporting a layout is af course not possible because only PLD layouts are available in dunning.
Regards Thijs

Dunning Letter Design & Aging report

Hello Experts,
I have a few doubts in B1 Sales AR -> Dunning and Aging Reports.
1. How do we incorporate our own letter format for dunning letters? I looked for PLD's, but nothing was available in the print preview screen.
2. When we execute Customer Receivables Aging report, what is the significance of the column "Future Remit"? In our B1 instance, the receivables that are due 60 or 90 days from current date are not appearing in their respective columns.
Please advise on how to proceed
With Regards,
PS: We are running B1 2005-B / MS-SQL 2005

Hi Kaatss,
You should be able to find the Dunning letter formats by clicking on the layout designer button and then from the windows selecting the dunning letter formats from the 'Choose Document Type'. They go by the ID of DUN0... DUN09.
As for the columns the 60 and 90 columns show the invoices (values) that are overdue by 60 and 90 days respectively.
The Future Remit column shows invoices that are still within the due date. So if you raise two invoice with 60 and 90 day payment terms, but they are still within their due date, their values will appear in the future remit column.
I hope this helps. I use 2005A so I hope there are no differences.

Dunning Letter as Crystal Report: What tables? (SAP B1 9.0)

Dear Experts,
I am being asked to revise the Dunning Letters for our clients. The existing PLDs for each Dunning Letter shows most data fields as system variables. The existing Crystal Report for Dunning Letter 1 is a conversion from the PLD and doesn't show table information for most of the report's main items. There are tables in the report but they are standard ones (OADM, OADP, OCRD, OHEM, OSLP). It also includes a "table" called "PLD__ITEMS" which has all the PLD system variables and no B1 table or field/column information.
As I'm just now starting to work with dunning letters, I see that I can't even run this report in Crystal. The PLD__Items datasource prompts me for a file path and class name. Any ideas what one enters here to run the report outside of B1 (from the Crystal report designer)?
The main focus of my question is: Has anyone created a Crystal Report to replicate the Dunning Letter and if so, what tables are involved and how are they connected? If I can create a Dunning Letter entirely in Crystal, I can replicate it across all clients and get the correct fields/columns of data the clients want. The inclusion of the PLD__Items apparently limits my ability to test the results. I would prefer to avoid the PLD limitations.
Thanks for any assistance.

Thank you Nagarajan. I have a dunning letter created in Crystal Reports for our client. It is fairly limited in scope, it just has the customer name and address, invoice numbers and dates, amounts due and the text they wanted in it.
I can import it into B1 9.0 and set it as the default for Dunning Letter #1 and it runs, but unlike other formats where there is a DocEntry and/or ObjectID and a ?DocKey@ or ?ObjectId@ parameter, how do I limit the report to just one customer? Typical document layouts run for the document that's on the screen. In the dunning process, the report runs once for every customer when the Dunning Letter Method is set to "One Letter per BP". I have to limit the report to one customer at a time. Right now, each dunning letter based on the Crystal report is identical and it contains all the data for every customer.
So, does anyone have any ideas for what selection criteria needs to be included in the Crystal report to have it select just one customer from the dunning wizard tables? Thanks.
Michael
Edit: I created a ?WizardID@ parameter and a ?CardCode@ parameter to limit the report to a single dunning wizard event and a single customer. While it works fine in Crystal itself, it doesn't work in B1 at all. I had thought that by limiting the report in this way, it would only create dunning letters for a single customer.

Dunning Letter Report for Portugal

Hi All
For Dunning Letter Portugal language rdf file made some changes in layout like removing break for credit
and debit transactions and moving address field to right side
But fields from Dunning letter setup in applications (first line) is getting truncated to half even after redoing changes it is behaving
in similar way any hints on fixing this issue will be helpfull
Thanks

Hi Husain...Thanks for immediate response. There is already data being pulled by standard function modules like PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE(copied into Z). Can we use that in simpler way(without the need of any new driver program with all the data population again)? And your answer is correct which I already thought earlier and kept it as a last resort, because I need to populate all the data again, convert spool to pdf and send pdf's to all selected customers And one more thing is that the requirement is to schedule a background job which takes care of sending all the emails . So any more ideas?

'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate'

hi,
How can i run the "Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate" standard program without runing the spwaned program called 'Dunning Letter Generate'.I mean i want to run the 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate'(execution method: report) independently.
I need to pass the parameters to the 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate' directly instead of passing to the spwaned program ''Dunning Letter Generate".
Thanks
Devender

Hi Gareth,
New parameters to be add are:
Tier : <xxxx>
Service Segment: <xxxxx>
Account Manager: <xxxx>
Location where I am picking these 3:
navigation:select any AR responsibility
customer->standard(query with any customer)->customer address
we have enabled 'site use information' dff in customer address window, from this dff we are taking these 3 parameters.
reason to add these 3 parameters:
we cant treat all the customers same. so we need to send some smooth(no harsh) dunning letters to some of our most trusted customers. so how can we identify gud customers in the list.
so we have enabled site use information dff. those customers who is have values for these 3 parameters. will be treated as v good and reguler customers for us. so for them we can send other dunning letters.
note*: this is to identify the customers like reguler customers,non requler customers.
bez in spwaned program we have parameters like 1.customer low 2.customer high. thats it .so it is very difficult to find out the nature of customer.
pls advice me on this..to proceed further..
Thanks
Devender

Dunning letter - email/pdf problem

I want to email a dunning letter to a customer.
I have executed a dunning run.
I go back to the Recommendation report for the dunning run - when I highlight the row under the customer name and click print preview I can see a preview of the dunning letter I want to email.
When I click the 'Email' button and click 'Yes' to attach an edited report I thought that would attach the letter to an email as a PDF? (I have send E-Mail via Microsoft Outlook' selected)
But when I check my Outlook sent box the email has been sent but there is no attachment of the dunning letter - it's just an empty email?
I tried again and examined the 'Send message' box that appears when I click the 'Email..' button.
The data tab shows the dunning run listed but the Attachments tab has nothing listed.
Should the file be listed here if it had correctly attached?
Incidentally when I click the PDF button this just brings up the same print preview instead of making a PDF of the letter - is this significant i.e is the PDF function not working hence the 'attach edited report' function also cannot work?
I'd be grateful for advice on emailing dunning letters correctly

Dunning Letter on Receivables Aging SAP B1 2007

You run the customer receivables aging report and double click a row on receivables aging report window. You highlight one row, there is no letter checkbox compare to SAP 2005 A. There is no Dunning Letter PLD as well. Therefore dunning letter report cannot be previewed.
Does this letter checkbox and dunning letter PLD is not available in SAP 2007 A?
Thanks,

Interest on Dunning Letter

Dear all,
I have configurated dunning with charges and interest. The charges appears in the dunning run but not the interest. I have done following:
- Entered interest indicator in the dunning procedure
- Ticked calculate interest on level 2 and 3 in dunning procedure
- Entered charges on dunning level 2 and 3
- Entered an interest rate in transaction OB42
Is there anything else I need to do for getting interest on dunning level 2 and 3?
We don´t have separate interest calculation (interest invoices), only interest on dunning.
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards L

Dear Maurizio,
Exactly, I want the interest to be visible on the print out but no FI document posted. But why is there no iterest in my dunning run and print out?
First havn´t enter any interest in OB42 and then I get information in log: Interest indicator 01 and currency EUR are missing in T056Z. So it seems that my configuration should work but not..
I have entered in transaction OB81:
01, EUR, 20110101, 1, Debit interest; arrears interest calc. 0,00, Premium 7,000000 (7% is our interest)
01, EUR, 20110101, 2, Credit interest; arrears interest calc. 0,00, Premium 7,000000 (7% is our interest)
Is above correct?
I have read note 82995 and 874603. In note 874603, do I have to do all settings for interest calculation when I only want interest as information on printout? I understand the note that the information about interest calculation is when I have interest calculation separate from dunning (as FINT) and I don´t need to do all those settings when only information on dunning letter. Correct?
Thanks in advance!

XML DUNNING LETTER TEMPLATE ISSUE

Hi every one,
I mapped the fields for the dunning letter report in RTF file.
I have an issue when i work into dunning letter template for xml report.
My Client wants to run the dunning letter by choosing the different languages before they run the concurrent program.
I dont knw where to write xml coding to make this report for mutiple languages and you please could any one knw the answer step by step.
please drop the solutions immediately and its very urgent.
Regards
Prabu

Set the language preference on the customer site on the "Characteristics" tab, then when the program "Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate" runs you will have a separate output for each language. Then run each output through the "XML Report Publisher" program and choose which XML template to run.
