Letter of Credit functionality and Credit Management

Hi,
we want to use Letter of Credit functionality for exports.
Currently, we have an ERP system that contains the sales data. In a separate system we have the credit management functionality (Financial Supply Chain Mgt - FSCM).
When order is created, the credit limit is checked in the FSCM system (via PI messages).
Now, we want to link some of the Sales orders with Letter of Credit. I believe, this is standard functionality in GTS.
So when Sales Order is created a LOC should be connected to this.
Can the GTS be connected also to FSCM credit management, so credit limit is not affected?
Example:
Sales Order value: 1 Mio USD
10% down-payment  >   this would be in the credit exposure visible (net exposure).
90 % covered through LOC  > credit exposure should showing this, or it shows order value and in a negative figure this amount deducted so no effect on exposure.
Down-payment has no relation to LOC. When money is received for this the net exposure of the sales order is 0.
partial invoice: 0.4 Mio USD > it should be possible to link this invoice to the LOC. The posting FI document should have some LOC information, so when payment comes in the amount in LOC is reduced as well as in credit management this open.
Final invoice 0.5 USD: as above, all values go out from exposure if there are any.
A second case would be guarantees, where there is no reduction of values. This would stay same.
Anyone who can advise a solution here?
Thanks + Regards
Hein

Letter Of Credit can be used as a standard solution of SAP GTS with ERP solution. Yes you can connect both SAP & no SAP systems with GTS, but plugins, PI etc needs to be built in. But it would not be real time like RFC works. There are some standard available which needs to be hard coded to meet specific requirements.
Connecting LOC to Sales Order, invoice etc, is manual, based on business specific parameters and it comes standard with SAP GTS. Maintaining Values & Quantity of LOC based on actual LOC from bank is also possible. The depreciation of values & quantities is also standard with in LOC in GTS.
You can also setup various communication methods for LOC.
I think when Invoice is raised and payment is received the LOC should be closed in the system. There can also be other scenarios where in system determines LOC based on predefined logics for determination strategy put in to the GTS system.

  • Diff bet credit memo and credit memo request

    Hi
    Can any one tell the difference between Credit Memo and Credit Memo Request
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Below is the information on crdit memo request.
    Definition: A credit memo request is a sales document used in complaints processing to request credit for a customer.
    Use: If the price calculated for the customer was too high (for example, with the wrong scaled prices or because a discount was forgotten), you can create a credit memo request. The credit memo request can be automatically blocked for checking. Once it has been approved, you can remove the block.The system uses the credit memo request to create a credit memo.
    Structure: A credit memo request is another type of sales document like a standard order. For more information on sales documents, see Working with Sales Documents.A credit memo request starts the billing process.
    =============================================
    Below mentioned is the information on Credit Memo.
    Definition: The term credit memo always refers to a credit memo from the vendor. Therefore, posting a credit memo always leads to a debit posting on the vendor account.
    Use: As in the case of invoices, credit memos refer to purchase orders or goods receipts. They are used to correct the purchase order history if the quantity invoiced was too high, for example, if an invoice was too high or if part of the quantity was returned.
    When you post a credit memo, the total quantity in the purchase order history is reduced by the credit memo quantity.
    If you do not want the total quantity invoiced to be reduced, you must post the credit memo as a subsequent credit.
    Hope this helps. Please let me know if you need more information and please assign points.

  • Differnece between credit note and credit memo

    Hi Gurus,
    Can you please explain differnece between credit note and credit memo clearly .. r they same?
    Regards,
    Subbu

    HI,
    ref the link, whihc will give the complete info
    http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/a8/b99890452b11d189430000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    and blw explanation
    Subsequent Debits/Credits are used in cases where the quantity is in the original invoice is to remain the same. For eg.
    PO 10 - $10
    Gr 10 - $10
    LIV 10 - $11 (Logistics Invoice Verification)
    The vendor invoice is more than that in the Purchase Order. In order to correct, the Vendor may send in another invoice for
    the Increased amount or a credit memo for the increased amount.
    If you approve of the price increase, post the subsequent invoice received as a Subsequent Debit/Credit Invoice.
    If it is a credit memo that has been received, then post the credit memo as Subsequent Debit/Credit.
    This would retain the quantity but reduce the amount.
    Subsequent Debit/Credit is for the case when the credit is not for the full amount eg. if the Vendor decided to credit
    only the $1 overcharged.
    Credit memo is for the credit of the full amount and value.
    Credit Memo u2013 A credit memo is received from a vendor if you were overcharged on a previous invoice. It is processed as a reversal of a previous invoice on a quantity and value basis referencing a Purchase Order. In the same way the system assumes a corresponding goods receipt was posted for the original invoice, the system assumes a credit memo is linked to the reversal of a goods receipt. You must change the transaction from Invoice to Credit memo.
    Subsequent Credit u2013 You receive a credit memo from a vendor decreasing the total invoiced value on a previous invoice, not the total invoiced quantity. You must change the transaction from Invoice to Subsequent credit. It is a reduction of value but not quantity by the amount of the credit memo.
    Subsequent Debit u2013 You receive an additional invoice from a vendor because you were undercharged, increasing the total invoiced value, not the total invoiced quantity. You must change the transaction from Invoice to Subsequent debit. It is processed as an increase in value but not the quantity by the amount of the additional invoice.

    -Credit note

    credit note and credit memo are same i.e when u pass the credit to the customer because of the excess amount u taken for example the high priced invoice, to balance it u create this type of document.
    credit for returns is exclusively when you take back ur damaged goods for example u return the value of the goods to customer thru this type of document.

  • Difference between Rebate Credit Memo and Credit Memo

    Dear Experts,
    Can an

    Credit Memo:
    Credit Memo issued for the price difference or if over billed . Credit memo always assoicated with Quantity and price.
    Rebate Credit Memo:
    Rebate credit memo is issued for the accruals ( Discount amount disbursed to the customers based on agreement).
    Rebate credit memo cannot be created manually in VA01. Accrual amount is calculated by the system based on the settle periods maintained in the rebate aggreement however accrual amt can be changed manually in Aggreement.

  • Credit managment against payment terms  and credit limit

    Dear All,
    I have two query against credit management
    1   Can We maintain credit managment as per payment days. My client want system should give bolck as per payments days,say if payment terms is 30 days and within 30 days customer has not made payment against invoice so sales order should block.        ( sales order will create but shown as block)
    2 Credit block with ref to credit limit given to customer,  they want credit block with reference to open order.open delivery and open invoice. Means system will check all open order,all open deliveries and all open invoice while considering credit limit.and give the block accordingly.
    I am sure about credit limit but how to give block according to payment days (payment terms) and how to give path to check all open order,all open deliveries and all open invoice.
    waiting for you valuable input.
    Thank you
    SD Consultant

    Hello,
    In OVA8, for the combination of credit group & risk category you maintain the following
    (1) CHECK against DYNAMIC with reaction C  & TICK in BLOCK
    NOTE:path to check all open order,all open deliveries and all open invoice is maintained in OB45 (update 000012)
    (2) CHECK against OLDEST OPEN ITEM with reaction C & TICK in BLOCK
    (do not maintain any value in DAYS OLDEST  ITEM, but maintain the payment terms in the Customer master)
    for example, block as per payments days,say if payment terms is 30 days and within 30 days customer has not made payment against invoice so sales order will be blocked.
    In both the cases ( credit limit and credit period,the sale orders blocked , can be released by VKM3.

    Hi Shafeek,
    Credit Limit standard functionality it self will fulfill your requirement.
    In Sales Document Type (VOV8) Update Check Credit Limit and Credit Group field and it will work.
    About Customer Master Overall Block, Please check that Blocking Reason has been assigned to your Document Type or not as per below screenshot.

    also I have no access to scase, from which table we can see open credit amount and credit limit has been exceeded by 143000? thanks

    open credit amount is 3800, I want to know how 3800 is calculated, any idea?
    You can check the open items for customer payer in FBL5N or BSID, BSAD tables.
    You can check in t code FD33 of the customer credit history what is the exposure and how much % credit limit exceeded etc.
