Dunning Procedure (FBMP) - Total Due Items from Dunning Level

Hi,
In Dunning Procedure (FBMP), there is a field called "Total Due Items from Dunning Level" ...
Questions: What does this field mean?
Besides, if possible, kindly explain the following:
1) Min.days in arrears (acct):
Days in arrears which at least one item in this account must have for a dunning notice to be created. These minimum days in arrears have no influence on calculating the days overdue.
If I put 50, then does this mean that system won't generate dunning notice, although in the dunning level 1: 15, dunning level 2: 30, and dunning level 3: 45?
Thanks.

hi,
The dunning intervals are usually meant for two purposes, one to send notices at appropriate intervals, to calculate interest on arrears accordingly for delay in payment. The dunning days say 45 will not be calculated from the 15th day but from the original date of document posting. Say if you have an open item on 01.01.2008 and the dunning procedure calls for intervals 15.30.45 etc. first dunning is due on 16.05.2008 and second dunning 01.06.2008 third dunning due on 16.06.2008.
Some other useful info. whenever a dunning run is complete the vendor master and the line items gets updated automatically. So if you have to run dunning again for the one already run say, you want to generate the dunning notice of the 2nd dunning then you have to delete these details from the base records and schedule dunning once again. Otherwise you obviously will generate notice of the last dunning run. Also if you are scheduling dunning for group of vendors then all vendors should have the same dunning levels, otherwise the output will be of the latest dunning level. But the master records and line items gets updated correctly. Example you are dunning for two vendors one has got the second level due and other has got 3rd level due but the output for the two will be the output of 3rd level . But the vendor master and line items gets updated as 2 and 3 accordingly. This will happen if and only the vendors fall in the same dunning procedure.
clarify if you have still doubts,

Hello Noor,
You can use stocktransfer object:
Private Sub PostStockTransfer()
        Dim oDoc As SAPbobsCOM.StockTransfer = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(BoObjectTypes.oStockTransfer)
        oDoc.DocDate = Date.Today()
        oDoc.FromWarehouse = "01"
        oDoc.Lines.ItemCode = "A0001"
        oDoc.Lines.WarehouseCode = "02"
        oDoc.Lines.Quantity = 10
        If oDoc.Add = 0 Then
            sbo_application.MessageBox("Stock transfer Issued")
        Else
            sbo_application.MessageBox(oCompany.GetLastErrorDescription)
        End If

Generating dunning letters for non due items

Hi All,
Currently our setting only prints the items which are due in dunning letters.
But we want to show all items for the customer in dunning letter, in case even one item is due for the customer. So that it give us a chance to remind our customer to make a payment for that also.
What could be the issue?
Thanks,
Bhaskar

Hi Bhaskar,
Go to FBMP and then Menu > Select > Environment > Company Code Data
And untick the u201CBy dunning areau201D and u201CBy dunning levelu201D for your company code.
Also in FBMP, select the option u201CPrint All Itemsu201D for your relevant dunning levels.

Stored procedure for Total in Header from row totals

Hi Experts,
I have read all notes written before regarding that how can we solve that problem if we would like to display on header a rowtotal. But i cannot solve it when i need it dinamically.
I copy the following query into SBP_SP_Transactionnotification but while im adding the document it doesnt refresh . I have to go back then i can see the row totals in my field.
IF @object_type = '18'
BEGIN
UPDATE OPCH SET U_ONELT =
(SELECT SUM(U_ONELTR) FROM DBO.PCH1 T0 WHERE T0.DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
WHERE DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del
END
How shall I modify this query?
Thanks in advance.
Eszter

This is the code you could use
IF @transaction_type = 'A' AND @object_type = '18'
BEGIN
UPDATE OPCH SET U_ONELT =
(SELECT SUM((T0.QUANTITYT0.PRICE)-(T0.QUANTITYT0.U_ONELTR)) FROM [DBO\].[PCH1\] T0 WHERE T0.DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
WHERE DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del
END
You can access this Stored Procedure from SQL Server Management Studio......Click on Databases...Select your database...Programmability.....Stored Procedure dbo.SBO_SP_TransactionNotification...Right click....select Modify

Business partner not getting dunned though dunning procedure is attached

Hi All,
We have Business partner for which dunning procedure is attached , there is no dunning lock, i have checked the dunning procedure having levels.
is there link between dunning and payment method and Lock present in Incoming Payment tab in Business Partner master data?
I would like to know where i can check for business partner last dunned? i checked in CAA3 but could not find.
Thanks and Regards
Reena

Hi,
Incoming payment method option can be found at Contract Account level. There in the payments tab, you can find the Incoming payment method option.
Also, for getting the items for dunning, check directly at respective document level, if the incoming payment method is set. If there is no incoming payment method set, then it should allow the items for dunning.
Generally for incoming payment method, the payment is processed on the due date, so in most cases, you will see a lock applied for preventing the item to be considered before the due date. (Prevent Early Payment).
The payment method has the relation with the dunning. As the CA is registered for incoming payment method, it is expected that the payment would be received on a timely basis on or before the due dates, so these items are not considered for Dunning purpose.
FPM3 is the transaction that shows the dunning history for that account.
Manually run FPVA for dunning proposal if the items are elligible for dunning and check in FPM3 for the entry. It the print date for the entries found is blank, run FPVB for Dunning Activity.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards,
Rajesh Popat

Dunning procedure in configuration:Define Parametrize External Transactions

Hi There,
We can assign a Dunning Procedure in configuration at "Define and Parametrize External Transactions".
Path:
Financial Accounting->Contract Accounts Receivables and Payables->Basic Functions-> Posting and Documents->Document->Maintain Document Assignments-> Maintain Transactions for Non-Ind. Contract Accounts Receivables and Payables->Define and Parametrize External Transactions.
For every unique combination of Application Area, Company Code, Division, Main and Sub Transaction:
When you Add or Select an External Main and Sub transaction, on the Line Item Parameters you can add among other things - a Dunning Procedure and Dunning Lock reason. We cannot assign a Dunning Grouping here though.
I have been trying to figure out what the use is of assigning the Dunning procedure here.
1)In what business processes and when/where is this used? What circumstances is Dunning Procedure assigned at Transaction (Main and Sub) level?
2)Does this configuration insert the dunning procedure at the Item level? i.e all items created by this configuration (main and sub transaction) are configured with this Dunning Procedure or Dunning Lock Reason?
3)What advantages does it provide over assigning the dunning procedure to the Contract Account or Contract Object?
Thank you.

Hi,
1)In what business processes and when/where is this used? What circumstances is Dunning Procedure assigned at Transaction (Main and Sub) level?
Everytime a document item with this combintaion of transaction is created. It is a way to default some attributes when documents are posted. This dunning procedure has priority over the one filled in the contract account.
2)Does this configuration insert the dunning procedure at the Item level? i.e all items created by this configuration (main and sub transaction) are configured with this Dunning Procedure or Dunning Lock Reason?
Yes, this level has the highest priority (the specific level over the general level), and yes this configuration insert the dunning procedure at the item level
3)What advantages does it provide over assigning the dunning procedure to the Contract Account or Contract Object?
Well, it depends what do you want to get. Sometimes specific postings done in the contract account are required to be dunned using a different dunning procedure than the one filled in the contract account.The dunning procedure filled in the contract account is used by dafault to dunn all the contract account postings, but the postings with its own dunning procedure.

How to delete the item from Delivery?? (Handling Unit)

Dear SDNs,
I have a scenario of HU (Handling Unit).
Now here I have a case where the complete cycle is done. But end user now wants to change/delet the item in Delivery. So I have guided them to reverse all documents and it is done.
Now delivery is in Editable Mode. Now here when I try to Delete Delivery Line Item.. It is giving Error like "Item has already been packed and therefore cannot be deleted"
Diagnosis says "It is not possible to delete packed items."
Procedure says "Unpack the item from the shipping unit before you delete it."
Now when I select Line Item and click the PACK Button to go to the screen for "Processing of Handling Units for outbound Delivery XXXXXXX", it goes to the screen but here there is not Existing HUs available to Delete/Empty... whole screen is Blank.. even no Material to be packed...
I think user have proceeded the cycle without HU assignment.
So now I want to Delete the Line Items and want to insert fresh Items again...
Any inputs???
Thanks & Regards,
HP

Inform Customers about debts due without a dunning procedure

Hi,
I am looking for a way to inform my customers for due futures payments without starting a dunning procedure or to programm a report.
For example:
A payment is due within 60 days and after 30 days I would like to send those customers a kindly reminder.
Regards
JP

You need to create a custom program based leveraging from the standard dunning program.
Or modify the statement account correspondence to include a statement that captures the amount falling due in 30 days.

Vendors Dunning - Due Items

Hi Experts,
Can any suggest me how the vendor Invoice Open items and Credit memo items are selected for Dunning. I have the below scenario.
There is a invoice and a credit memo posted to a venodr account which are overdue and the overal balance is Debit, hence both the items are getting selected in the Dunning proposal, later an invoice is posted which is not due but the vendor balance has become credit. now not a single item is getting included in the Dunning proposal. This could be because vendor has got credit balance.
Can anyone suggest me how the Dunning Picks up the line items of vendor or what configuration i have to make inorder to properly check for the Due dates in case of vendor items.
Thanks
Srini

Hi Mural,
The transaction OBVS is to view/table maintainenance, can you please let me know where exactly by dunning level need to be maintained.

Print All Items in Dunning

My dunning configuration:
Using Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable
Dunning Procedure 1 has 4 levels
10 - Late charge (set at 5%)
20 - 1st reminder
30 Final notice
40 Disconnect document
Limits are set at $200 for L20-40.
Print all items is active at L20-40
Test result:
1st Bill for $250 causes a late charge (L10 charge $12.50) and the $250 progresses to L40, dunning balance is $250 at L20-40.
No payment made
2nd bill includes $250 previous balance, current charge of $250, and the late charge of $ 12.50 for a total amount due of 512.50.
Dunning runs result in late charge (L10 charge $25.63), L20 Dunning balance is 262.50 ($250 + $12.50), L30 Dunning Balance is $262.50, L40 Dunning balance is $512.50 ($250 + $250 + $12.50).
I assume the dunning behavior on the second run results from print all items only including previous due amounts whose dunning level equals the dunning level being processed. Since all of the previous items (from bill #1) had reached L40, there was nothing for L20 and L30 to pick up on the second run. Is this correct? My issue is my client requests that L20 and L30 dunning balance on the second run include the total amount due ($512.50) as L40 does. Is there a way to configure the system to achieve this result? Thanks in advance.

Hi, all
I too have same problem to solve for my client. Please help us to find a solution for this.

Dunning procedure and interest calculation

Hi All,
usually in dunning procedure, the interest is calculated on over due items based on the period from Last Dunning date to run date.
If the customer is never dunned before and this MDAT is never populated, how will the program generally calculate interest..?
Can somebody explain me on how it works..?
thankx,
Neha

Hi All,
Thanks for all answers.
When I checked table MHND, the dunning interest is calculated in such a way that it doesn't consider the previous dunned date.
Meaning :
Dunning ran on 12-01-09 interest calculated is 500.00 ( 2 docuemnst considerded from bsid as seen from table MHND )
Dunning ran on 15-01.09 interest calculated is 500.00 ( same as above)
Ideally for Dunning ran on 15-01.09 , it should not calculate interest since on 12th it is done..!!
Now queries:
1. Where can i see these interest calculated during dunning run ( any report ? ) other than table..?
2. When I see the dunning run, looks like user has made some mistakes, It shows as
           Parameters have been entered
           Dunning run carried out, job was deleted
          Dunn. printing carried out, job was deleted
3. when I try to run the single dunn. notice, and see sample print out it gives message as
Account D 0004298846 is blocked by dunning run 20090319 MDUN1
why is it so and how to resolve..?
thanks,
Neha

The T-code of creating dunning procedure

Could anyone please tell me the T-code of creating the dunning procedure.Thanks in advance

CONFIGURATION PATH:
Financial Accounting -> Account Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Business Transactions -> Dunning -> Dunning Procedure -> Define Dunning Procedures OR Transaction Path:
Accounting/Financial Accounting/Accounts Payable/Periodic Processing/Dunning/Environment/Change
Configuration
TRANSACTION CODE: FBMP
Basically there are three steps in this transaction:
1) Maintain dunning procedure
2) Maintain dunning levels
3) Maintain dunning texts
transaction from SAP:
- Before defining several dunning procedures and forms, you should check whether you can fulfill
all your requirements using one dunning procedure and one form.
- You should select Always dunn. notice? for
the last dunning level so that items at this level are not skipped.
- You can store the header and footer texts separately
for your dunning notices. If your letter paper already contains these specifications, you can remove the windows for these
texts in the form you define using SAPscript.
