Functionality & configuration of dunning

I need to understand the functionality of dunning and its related configuration steps.
T

hi
let me put it in simple terms:
1) You have a Customer which you had felt, he is doing good business and supplied material on Credit of 45 days.
2) Since this customer is good as you felt, you have not managed Credit Checks as well. So, he had comfortably reached to the fullest credit (or even more) which you can afford for any customer.
3) One fine day you got realised that, there is very bad debt with this customer and need to recover from him and till then, there will be no further supply to the customer.
4) Your company's legal department has laid a policy that, inorder to recover any bad debts, like:
a) We will send a normal payment reminder.
b) In case customer doesnt respond, we will send at least further reminder (dunning notice) may be 9 times
(9 reminders) (Dunning level) and what intervels of time (dunning frequency)
c) Still if the customer doesnt resopond for the reminders, you will file a law suit against the customer for recovering
the Payments.
d) Finally, after getting veridict, you may proceed for auction of his property or as per the order for Law.
Now in SAP, the definition of Dunning procedure is a pre-defined procedure specifying how customers or vendors are dunned.
For each procedure, the user defines
- Number of dunning levels
- Dunning frequency
- Amount limits
- Texts for the dunning notices
In SAP, you will maintain the Dunning Procedure at customer master. Referring to this your SD Team / FI Team (user team) will effect Dunning
hope you find it useful

Functional Configuration for Barcode

Dear Experts,
I would like to know about the BARCODE Configuration.
I know that BARCODE can be configured also by Technical Consultant using SAPSCRIPT or SMARTFORMS using the TCode SPAD.
Here, am looking for the configuration which can be done by functionally.
I have searched plenty of documents but I got all about technical details only. Please guide me to configure the BARCODE using functional steps.

Hi Siva,
Thank you for showing the right path. Here, the configurations are with Warehouse Management. Is it possible to configure without WM module.
The exact scenario is that, we buy products from the subcontractors i.e., trading goods and we sell the same goods using our brand name. So, we need to stick the Barcode sticker on the material and while dispatching end user will deliver the products once he read the Barcode using the scanner. We don't store the products in go down or warehouse.
I hope you understood my scenario.

Dunning Smartform F150_DUNN_SF configuration

Hi,
Could anyone let me know the steps involved in configuration of Dunning smartform, I am also having a requirement where I have to configure Dunning smart form F150_DUNN_SF with the standard print program.
Could you please explain me the steps to configure this smartform, I am able to configure a sap script for dunning but not the smartform.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Abnish Jain

Hello
Based on the configuration in FBMP where the frequency is given and grace period is also given. Based on that the dunning levels are triggered when you dun a customer using F150. So each time in one run the dunning level is updated in the customer in the other dunning run the dunning level moves on to the next.
Thanks and Regards

Dunning through Invoicing

Hello,
I am working for a company that collects taxpayer debt. PSCD was implemented to support the collection of several different portfolios, all with different dunning activities, etc. Recently, we upgraded to ECC6.0 EhP3.
We are now taking over the billing and invoicing for one of the programs we already collect on. As such, we will be using the PSCD invoicing engine to invoice the financial obligations that we receive from a legacy system.
I have configured the dunning proposal to be active during the invoice process but I am running into some problems:
1) Dunning is not always escalating on past due items
2) The dunning frequency that was configured in the dunning procedure is not being considered
We cannot use collection strategy here due to the existing portfolios that we collect on. I am curious if the dunning that is triggered through invoicing can be set to only look at the existing dunning procedures. Hopefully I am just missing some piece of configuration. I would really appreciate any help you all could provide.
Thanks so much.
Mike

Dunning can be run along with invoicing also.It is a standard functionality.
But that dunning run has issue date as the posting date of the invoice. The requiurement is to have the issue date as the document date of the invoice.
This is maintained in FKK_INV_DUNNING_PROPOSAL - FKK_DETERMINE_DUNNING_DATA where posting date is passed as the issue date.
How can this be updated to Document date.
We are tryin to use the Event 0301.

hi.........
i have send dunning process giude:
Settings for Dunning: Overview
The SAP Financial Accounting component is delivered with the dunning procedure and all
further specifications for dunning. Check whether you can use the predefined settings or
whether you have to make changes. Assign the required dunning procedures and areas (if
used) required to your business partners.
Note that some settings are company code-specific. If you do not use the company code keys
delivered with the system, you must change the standard entries or make your own entries.
You can make the settings for the dunning program when you implement the system; you can
however still change them at a later date. You make the system settings in three places:
u2022 In Customizing (IMG) or the application
o In the IMG for Financial Accounting, choose Accounts Receivable and
Accounts Payable   Business Transactions   Dunning.
o In the SAP Easy Access Menu, choose Accounting   Financial accounting
Accounts receivable/Accounts payable   Periodic processing   Dunning.
u2022 In the master record for your customer or vendor
In the SAP Easy Access Menu, choose Accounting   Financial accounting   Accounts
receivable/Accounts payable   Master records   Create or Change then Company code
data   Correspondence.
u2022 In the document (optional settings)
In the SAP Easy Access Menu, choose Accounting   Financial accounting   Accounts
receivable/Accounts payable   Document   Change .
For more information about configuring the dunning program, see the Implementation
Guide for Financial Accounting under Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable
Business Transactions   Dunning.

Dunning won't print to smartform

Hey all,
I've been trying to set up the Dunning process to print to the standard SAP dunning smartform (F150_DUNN_SF). Here's what I've done so far:
1. Used transaction BF31 to change the function module for dunning to FI_PRINT_DUNNING_NOTICE_SMARTF.
2. Used transaction SPRO under Financial Accounting->Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable->Business Transactions->Dunning->Printout->Assign Dunning Forms to set the Form for our custon procedure for all 3 Dunning Levels to F150_DUNN_SF
3. I then run the dunning report out of transaction F150. The Dunning list shows that the customer should receive the letter.
When I try to print, the job terminates. When I check the job log in SM37, I get the following error: "Include text does not exist (object TEXT, ID )" (Message class SSFCOMPOSER, Message No. 610). Everything looks like it is set up correctly. Did I miss a step?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Seems that the smartform that you are using has a standard text which is not avaliable check the smartform for standard texts being used and check if they are all avaliable in SO10.

Dunning Document Set Up Question

I hope someone with a better understanding of Dunning (which will be every oout there !), can help me with my question
What is the difference between the "F150_DUNN_01" and "F150_DUNN_02" SAPscripts?
In the SAP documentation it says "F150_DUNN_02" is the "Form with interest".
My FI person wants to charge interest in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th level of Dunnning, but not on the 1st... does that mean that I need to use two different Dunnning forms.... "F150_DUNN_01" for the first level and "F150_DUNN_02" for the 2nd through 4th level?.... what is diffferent Between the two forms?
Any reply would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Peter,
I think it could be two dunning level .The number of days gracing period is default by the system. The system purpose line item grace for the first period. For all further dunning level, the system add the dunning interval in days to the days of arrear of the previous dunning level.
For each dunning level you can specify the interest to be calculated .For more detail you can go to FBMP transaction in configure your dunning procedures to fit the requirements.
For your scenario:
1. Go to "FBMP"
2. Choose dunning procedure assigned to the company
3. Go to "Dunning Level"
4. Depend on number of levels assigned, you should have same number of check boxes in "Calculate Interest?" row. Leave the boxes unchecked if you do not want to change interest on that particular level.
Hope this helps.

Dunning Letters

Hi all,
I want to have all levels (10) of dunning letters. Where can i find/open it whitout using the Dunning Wizard?
Thanks in advance,
Chief
Edited by: Philip Eller on Jul 4, 2008 10:14 AM

Hi Chief
Are you referring to the PLD for the 10 letters? If so you can access these from the BP Master by selecting the Payment terms TAB and then clicking on the Navigation Arrow next to Dunning term. Alternatively go to Administration > Setup > Business Partners > Dunning terms. Then click on the pencil (PLD) button and select the letter you want to view/change.
In the case of a preview function for the dunning wizard, this is not currently available as after running the wizard the system automatically prints the letters without a preview function.
Kind regards

Difference between dunning area and dunning procedure

Hi,
can anybody explain the exact differnce between dunning area and dunning procedure
why we define both n how we use them
what is the differnce between dunning by dunning area and dunning by dunning procedure
i would be very much thankful if can get the exact differnetation

Dunning Areas are organizational units that you use to process the dunning program for example, by division, or sales organization.
You use dunning areas if several organizational units are responsible for carrying out dunning within a company code. These organizational units are represented by dunning areas in the SAP System.
You can have either One dunning procedure for One dunning area or several Dunning procedures per dunning area.
Dunning procedure actually defines how business partners are dunned.
The dunning program duns open items in customer and vendor accounts if the overdue items result in a debit balance. When you configure the dunning program, you can specify additional criteria for determining whether accounts or their open items are to be dunned.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Nandita
