Dear Gurus,
I have maintained L/C as statistical Special GL indicator.
i find that when entry is posted using L/c as the Special GL indicator, the Vendor / customer balance gets updated by the same in account balance (FBL1n,FBL5n).
I do not want this to happen.
that is the amount posted using special GL indicator should not update the balance.

How to deal with Letter of Credit in Oracle Payables ??

In case of letter of credit, an 100% advance payment is done to bank, Bank charges its commission,
The letter of credit is for goods imported which is part of inventory. As standard practices of finance, exchange gain/loss and expenses incurred to bring the inventory to its present location and conditions should form part of inventory cost.
This cost are not known at the time of PO, so only purchase price is ascertain.
How to track custom duty paid, insurance, freight, and cargo handling expenses incurred on material.
All this cost should be charged to item and according unit cost should be adjusted.

Well, when are these other costs known? Perhaps you do not know them until you get the invoice from the supplier? Are you then doing match to invoice (either match to PO or match to receipt?)? What version of EBS are you on? My initial off the top of my head though is that when you match the invoice to receipt, the quantity amount should match, but the cost amount would be higher, by the amount of these extra costs. So you would have to be sure you don't have any match tolerance that would prevent such a match. That would get the entire cost charged to inventory, and the unit cost on that invoice is Cost Amount / Quantity. Without knowing anything about your inventory setup, not sure how that would impact you.
Of course, if any of my assumptions are wrong, then my thinking will be wrong. Thus would be helpful to supply additional information about your situation.

Letter Of Credit ( LC )?

is oracle payable and purchasing support LC? Is not What The Suggetion Work Around Must Go To Implemented?
Thanks

Just to give you an background, A Letter of Credit (LC) is a document issued by your bank that essentially acts as an irrevocable guarantee of payment to a beneficiary. This means that if you do not perform your obligations, your bank pays. The letter of credit can also be the source of repayment of the transaction meaning that the exporter will get paid with the redemption of the letter of credit.
Let me give you an example:
For simplicity sake lets imagine that your company imports Laptop from a Taiwan manufacturer called XYZ Computer, which banks at CitiBank Taiwan. Your company currently banks at OCBC Singapore
For the purpose of this example these will be the roles that the parties will play in the letter of credit transaction:
Your company : applicant
Taiwan manufacturer : beneficiary
OCBC Singapore : Issuing Bank
CitiBank Taiwan : Advising Bank
The example:
You want to buy $50,000 worth of desktop/Laptops from Taiwan Manufacturing, which agrees to gives you 60 days to pay it with the condition that you provide them with a 90 days letter of credit for the full amount. The steps to get the LC would be as follows:
1)You go to OCBC Singapore and request a $50,000 letter of credit with Taiwan Manufacturing as a beneficiary.
2)The bank goes through its underwriting process. Although the bank is not advancing money, they are extending credit on your behalf and are taking on a contingent liability. If your company qualifies from a credit standpoint the LC is issued.
3)Even if your company does not qualify for credit, you can still get an LC if you are willing to put cash collateral CD secured letters of credit are very common for small business specially in APAC region.
4)The bank sends a copy of the letter of credit to OCBC Singapore, which lets the vendor knows and the merchandise is shipped.
Take into consideration that the letter of credit itself might be the source of repayment of the transaction. It could be that Taiwan Manufacturing is interested in getting paid as soon as the stuff is shipped. Therefore, the letter of credit will indicate that payment shall be made as soon as Taiwan Manufacturing can present proof of shipping.

Configuration of Bills of Exchange and Letter of Credit

Please can someone give me the steps for configuration of Bills Receivable, Payable and Letter of Credit.

1) No restart is necessary when dataguard broker is used to upgrade the protection mode from maxperformance to maxavailability, you have to do this if you would change the mode manually outside the broker.
2) ... Won't this be a problem since unless a switchover/ failover has been performed the standby database is not supposed to be mounted? ...
I don't understand this. A standby database is always (at least,it may be even open,depending on the configuration and version,which you don't tell) to be mounted.
You don't need to add 'standby database' to 'alter database mount', because Oracle knows is it a primary or a standby database. This clause is optional,more interesting for a human reader.

Depending on the terms of Purchase order , Vendor will discount it /get
payment from Bank on submitting LC and other necessary documents.
Vendor's Bank, at appropriate Time will send the same to Customer's Bank
How to mapped this scenario in SAP-MM and FI .
Activities required to be updated against Purchase order :
(1) Payment Terms : 100 % against LC on delivery

Vendor has suggested, our company's Bank Name
(3) LC discounted details
(4) LC payment due date to our company Bank - as Procurement needs
to inform to Finance for this.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

How to track Letter of credit in FI Module.

Dear Gurus,
(Exports scenarios)
I have configured letter of credit for customer's export scenario. At end user level we are creating letter for credit using VX11N. Once the letter of credit is created, we link it to the sales order at header level in billing document tab - financial document field.
I would like to know how can we track this letter of credit in FI module? For example if we receive payment from the bank against letter of credit which is linked to sales order then how will we be able to track that letter of credit while entering the customer payment in FI module.
Also help me understand whether I am posting it to right forum, as I am posting the question for the first time here.
Please advice. Thank you.

There are some reports to check the LC sales scenario: VXA1, VXA2 & VXA3

Revolving Letter of Credit - SD.

Hi Friends,
we have a requirement to implement Revolving Letter of Credit, where if a Payment is made for the particular customer it's value should be added to the existing open LC value .
we tested everything with Static LC and every thing is working fine. but now we have to implement revolving LC
Example.
LC duration is 1 JAN to 31 JAN
Initial LC Value = Rs. 1000
order raised = Rs. 800
LC Open value = Rs . 200
so if the customer makes payment for Rs. 300
the open LC value should be Rs. 200(Earlier open LC value) + 300(payment) = Rs. 500
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
Kindly consider that when defining the indicators for special G/L transactions, you should define in each case whether the transaction in question is relevant for the credit limit check.

Re: Letter of Credit - Imports

Hello,
I want to map the process of letter of credit in case of imports in SAP.
What the process is, we are making an import PO. Bank opens LC in equal to the invoice amount. We have to pay margin money i.e 25percent of invoice amount to the bank, in turn, bank opens the LC of 75percent of invoice amount. We are capturing the payment of margin money at 25percent in SAP.
The point is, bank is giving the facility of 75percent for 90 days. I dont know how to map this scenario in SAP?

Financial documents/ Letter of Credit and down-payment

Hi,
I try to map requirements from business against solution in SAP.
There is a scenario as follows, where part of the sales order is covered through down-payment. This should be exempted from Letter of credit value.
Example
Sales Order value 1 Mio USD
Down-payment 0.2 Mio USD > paid immediately after sending out the request invoice (request is generated in SD from Sales order). Until payment, this would remain as the net exposure in the system.
LOC value should be only >> 0.8 Mio USD <<
Is there a solution in SAP to this? What would need to happen to enable this?
Cheers
Hein

Hello Hein
Well, for your requirement you have to go development.
For this you can use No credit check in TCode OVA8 for Define Automatic Credit Control for your desired combination of Credit control area, Risk class & Credit group.
Where you have to write a requirement with help of ABAPer.
OR
You can take assistance of FI guy and looking to define Reconciliation Accts Without Credit Management Update
Where In this IMG activity, you can cancel the credit management update function for certain postings by posting to an additional reconciliation account; the reconciliation account without credit management update.
When you make postings to the standard reconciliation account, the receivables total within credit management is then updated, but those postings made to the reconciliation account without credit management update are not.
In Japan, various receivables that are considered certain to be received are excluded from credit management update, including:
- Active prepaid/deferred items
- Payments by letter of credit
Hope this can assist you.
Thanks & Regards

Credit Check againt letter of credit.

hi,
This is regarding credit check of sales order against FD. If the letter of credit belongs to company 001 and sales order contains any line items materials other than company 001. It gives an error EI574 "Financial Doc data check result not ok". Is there any way to do credit check ignoring company? I mean financial document will be in one company but sales order items can be from multiple company. Please share your expertise.
Regards
Achuthanandan

Hi Achuthanandan,
if the credit control area is assigned at company code level then this error will appear
if the credit control area is assigned at the sales area level then this error will not come

Letter of credit check status not correct in VL01N

Hi, Gurus,
I activate both credit management and documentary payment. When I try to create delivery-VL01N with reference to a sales order, i assign an financial document with 100% depreciation. Suppse deliver amount exceeds this financial document, system should issue message and block this delivery. However, there were no such message and credit status is "A" when saving delivery.
In Vl02N, not changing any data, system issue the message showing that
the financial document value is exceeded, and delivery is blocked when I save the delivery.
I checked my configuration, and cannot think of anything related to this.
After debug, I found out that the reason is that SAP get delivery value from table S131, field OLIKW and compare it with financial document open value. However, S131-LOIKW is 0 when I create the delivery. After delivery is created, S131-OLIKW value is corect. Therefore, when i change delivery and try to save before exit, system will issue the message.
Does anyone know anything might be related to this weird issue?
Thanks,
Cicely
