New Dunning Level Config.

Hi,
I have had to add two new dunning levels to our ECC5 system, levels 3 and 4.
In SPRO under Financial Accounting > AP and AR > Business Transactions > Dunning > Dunning Procedures > Define Dunning Procedures
I have created the two new dunning levels under the same procedure as levels 1 and 2.
However outstanding bills for level 3 dunning do not appear to be being picked up.
Is there any other config that I have missed?
Thanks
David

Hi
As suggested by Mahesh please check if you have assigned a dunning form to the dunning levels or not and further please notice your dunning date .
If you have created new level and trying to test that by running F150 , then please check the frequency of dunning period from your last dunning run, there must be gaap of that many days between two dunning run , else it will not produce any result.
Cheers

Dunning Level Repeated in Dunning Run

Hi,
We need your help in resolving a peculiar issue we are facing relating to Dunning:
The Dunning Activity is picking up Contract Accounts repeatedly at the same Dunning Level.
For example,
the Contract Account CA - 1 contains two open items:
Document Number
Due Date
Dunning Procedure
Document 1
01.06.2014
ZA
Document 2
05.06.2014
ZA
the Dunning Procedure ZA contains 4 Dunning Levels as follows:
Dunning Procedure
Dunning Level
Days in Arrear
ZA
1
10
ZA
2
20
ZA
3
30
ZA
4
40
While analyzing the issue we are facing, we have observed that one of the scenarios when the Contract Account is repeatedly picked at the same dunning level is the following:
if the Contract Account - CA - 1 is picked in the Dunning Activity Run at Dunning Level 3 for the Dunning Procedure ZA on 30.06.2014(when the Document 1 is reaching the days in arrear for Dunning Level 3)
The same Contract Account - CA - 1 is picked in the Dunning Activity Run at same Dunning Level 3 for the Dunning Procedure ZA once again on 05.07.2014(when the Document 2 is reaching the days in arrear for Dunning Level 3)
The scenario mentioned above is not the only scenario when we are facing this issue of Contract Account getting picked at the same dunning level repeatedly.
The Dunning Procedure mentioned in the example has been configured as follows:
The field - Always Dun, has not been checked.
The correct days difference between two Dunning levels has been maintained in the field - Dunning frequency for every Dunning level.
The field - Days in arrears, has been maintained correctly for each of the Dunning Levels
But as per the business requirement and our understanding of the behaviour of standard SAP, the Contract Account - CA - 1 which is picked at the Dunning Level 3 for the Dunning Procedure ZA on 30.06.2014, should be picked in the Dunning Activity Run only when:
the open item in the CA- 1 remains outstanding till the number of days to reach the next Dunning Level, which in this example would be reached when the outstanding item remains open for 40 days (CA - 1 would reach Dunning Level 4)
Further, As per the F1 help mentioned for the field - Dunning frequency:
The second dunning notice at dunning level 3 is prevented if you specify a dunning frequency of 10 days for dunning level 3. In that case, a dunning notice at dunning level 4 will be created ONLY on 10.07.2014, since the days in arrears for dunning level 4 have been reached.
So currently, the system is behaving in a way which is contradicting the details mentioned in F1 help.
Please advise how can we ensure that the CA - 1 is not picked up at the same Dunning Level repeatedly and confirms with the details mentioned in the F1 help.
Thanks and regards,
G. Ajit Kumar

Hi Ajit,
Check the parameter value for the last dunning level against the dunning procedure ZA in the SPRO config.
I think it is currently configured as 2-Dun after end of dunning frequency for all line items.
Ideally it should be 3-Dunning for new overdue items only
You can find this in the following config-
SPRO-->Financial Accounting--->Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable-->Business Transactions-->Dunning--->Configure Dunning Procedure
Select the Dunning Procedure and click on display and you will find it under the parameters section.
Hope it helps...
Thanks,
Amlan

Customizing / creating new dunning letters

Hi all,
It seems as if this process has changed since previous posts on the forum.
I want to create a new dunning letter (from a current one) that has the company logo etc. on it - how do you get the system to use the new letter template?? I have created on that is in the list under the Dunning Letter 1 list, but cannot work out how to select it in the dunning wizard process.
Cheers,
Nick

Hi,
The Dunning Wizard uses the default layout for the selected dunning level. Go to Dunning Wizard, select Print Layout Designer, in the 'Choose document type' scroll up a little bit and select DUN0 for level 1, DUN1 for level 2, etc. Then choose your template and 'Set as default'. When you run the wizard, it will print the default one.
I hope this helps.

Dunning Old dinning level and dunning level

Hi experts,
I have one issue in dunning. the issue is where the dunning history for particular customer shows as old dunning level as 3 and dunning level as 2.
i have checked the customer master there is change in the dunning procdure. But the document and master data shows the correct dunning level with the new procdure.
so i didnt understand what is the OLD dunning level and dunning level for the same cusomer. the issue is only with one customer.
I have also checked with old procdure with same customer in table MHNK. there are some notices done. but how come the current invoice shows the old dunning level for the same invoice.
can any once explain me how to proceed.
Regards
Ashok

Hi
Thnks for the reply so we need to apply this note for making the old dunning level and dunning level makes equal after you run the program.
Also one more doubt, since i have observed that the dunning after the parameters entered. looks like this
Parameters were maintained
Dunning selection executed, job deleted
Dunning notice printed, job deleted.
the above doesnt means that they will update the old dunning level right.

Ashok

Transferring Open Items, Instalment Plans and Dunning Level

Hi all,
We are implementing SAP IS-U for a water suplly company and we have a process in which an Installation is transferred from a Business Partner to another. For this we are using the Move-in / Move-Out functionality (trx EC60).
So far, so good. The problem is that we also should transfer also the Open Items, Instalment Plans and Dunning level to the new Business Partner and new Contract Account.
The questions is: can we transfer these automatically?
We thought in different scenarios in case this is not possible, so I would appreciate if you can give us an opinion:
1 - Use FP40 transaction and transfer FICA elements manually
2 - Create a FOP process to perform step by step the process from CIC0. The only problem I have found is that there is not any object that allows me to transfer the open items. Does it exist? If not, this option is not valid
3 - Use the "Change CUstomer" Functionality. Did you have any experience using this funcionalidty? The main issue I have with this is that the system generates a dummy invoice, the Move in Date is in the future, and the Account must be closed.
Please any information will be very helpful. Thank you very much in advance!
Best Regards,
Lucas

Hi Lucas,
You can transfer the open items and the dunning level manually to the new BP and CA through transaction code FP40.
You need to maintain the following configuration settings in the posting area 1055-
Curr-Currency of the Cocd
Clearing Reason-Clearing reason used for transfer
Document Type-Document Type used for Transfer
Only all items- blank
Credit-X
Transfer DL-X
Moreover, you cannot transfer Instalment Plans through FP40, as instalment plan items are statistical in nature.
Hope it clarifies.....
Thanks,
Amlan

Dunning note with four dunning levels

Hai Experts,
i am new to smartforms, my requirement is develop dunning note with four dunning levels, what is the standard program, and standard print program for this, is there any logic develop? how can i develop the smartform in fourlevels, i develop 4 forms or use one form 4 times. what is the logic?

Hi,
Dunning letter means intimation letter to customer for payment due.
Yes, actually it has 5 levels. As per your requirement you need to develop 4 dunning letters. You need to develop 4 different forms. Main difference of these letters are body of the letter. For this Print program is "SAPF150V" and t-code is F150. Run F150 and enter date and ID. As per my knowledge testingof this dunning letter is the functional person responsibility. Don't worry about that. Becuase i have developed 4 types of dunning letters.
Hope this helps you. Reply for queries, shall post the updates.
Regards.
Kumar.

Dunning level printing

hi
i want to print dunning notice1 for dunning level1 and
dunning notice2 for level2,
dunning notice3 for level3.
how to do this?

hi Sivagopal,
step1: goto Transaction F150
step2: <b>click individual dunning notice</b> button
step3: Enter the company code, customer
step4: Enter the dates: the date has to be based on the dunning procedure defined. for example: if the 1st dunning has to be done 30 days after due date (this information you have to get from IMG or functional consultant). Make sure that you choose the right customer (go to transaction FBL5N and execute for all customers and get the customer whose bill is pending for some long time...and check the dunning level, under the column <b>DUN</b>.
so give a date 30 days after the due date shown in FBL5N, for RUN ON and DUNNING DATE fields
step5: for second dunning level, we have to give the date gap (may be 30 days or 15 days as mentioned in dunn procedure).
To get the dunning procedure, follow the path
goto SPRO->press F5->Financial Accounting New->Accounts recievable and Accounts payable->Business transactions->Dunning->define Dunning procedures
and double click the procedure...you get the relevant information.
Finally, you have to check for the corresponding customer, the dunning procedure is maintained.Follow the path to check that
XD03->click button "Company code data"->choose tab "Correspondence".
If the first field "dunn procedure" is not maintained, maintain the same in transaction XD03.
Hope this helps.

Is it possible to set dunning level of cleared documents?

We'd like to use dunning to report on 30, 60 and 90 days in arrears. It's easy to turn it on going forward. However, we'd like to process all our cleared items (BSAD) and set the dunning level on them as well if that's possible.
Has anyone ever done this before? Any suggestions on where to look or how to do this?

Thanks for the quick answers... That's too bad there isn't anything out of the box to do it.
I'm going to investigate the program RFFMINTCALC which calculates dunning interest on cleared items. I'm hoping it will be easy to modify to make it calculate the dunning level and update bsad.

Get credit memos to print on Dunning Level - All Print layout

Greetings,
I am wondering why credit memos do not show on the dunning level - all print layout. If I click on the edit icon it lists credit memos within here and it looks like they should print, yet when I run the wizard and I have a customer with a credit memo on their account it does not show on the statement printout. Any ideas?
The only clue is on the dunning recommendation report all outstanding invoices get flagged to dunning level 1 whereas the credit memo stays at level 0.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Aaron

The reason behind - might be an outstanding functions need to be developed later or a bug. Only if the link is there, you may print them out. This is a fixed PLD that you don't have any controls.
Thanks,

Changing the Dunning level and reports for Dunning

How can I change the 'Dunning level' for line items in the 'Dunning History/Dunning overview'? I have read in help.sap that I can change it, but am not able to find where I could do that.

Can anyone tell me if there are any reports available to view the 'Dunning list'(other than Dunning History in F150).
Also, Our client needs a report which shows a list of all 'customers' and 'line items' Blocked for Dunning.

Thanks .
I'm looking at running the ALFS editor . I'm in WebAS 7.00 . The Themes/templates and brand colours on the left frame does appear but the bsp page does not appear . used the standard bsp page which appears as a default ( bsp add it05 ) . The error message is as follows
The following error text was processed in the system:
BSP Exception: Das Objekt entrypoint.htm_sap-themeRoot=/sap/public/bc/ur/design2002/themes/alfs1000101F5FFFA2F4F4F2929296F8FAF3F5F7F in der URL /sap/bc/bsp/sap/it05/entrypoint.htm&sap-themeRoot=%2fsap%2fpublic%2fbc%2fur%2fdesign2002%2fthemes%2falfs1000101F5FFFA2F4F4F2929296F8FAF3F5F7F ist nicht gültig.
But if I run the bsp application manually then the right theme does get picked up . I made the entry in the bspthemeroot table and put in the alfs parameter in the above url ( 1000101F5FFFA2F4F4F2929296F8FAF3F5F7F ) . The bsp application works fine but not the alfs editor . Any ideas ?

Problem with a BAPI collecting dunning levels

Hello all experts,
I am having a problem with BAPI DebtorCreditAccount (called from a VB program), collecting dunning levels.
The BAPIs is called like follows (only the essential code is shown):
The first function (GetCustomerCurrentBalance) works fine but the second (GetCustomerHighestDunningLevel) doesnt work.
    Public Function GetCustomerCurrentBalance(ByVal strCustomerID As String) As Decimal
        Dim objARAccount, objReturn, objActualBalance As Object
        Try
            objARAccount = Me.p_sapBapi.GetSAPObject("ARAccount", "1000", Me.ConvertCustomerID(strCustomerID))
            objARAccount.GetCurrentBalance(Return:=objReturn, ActualBalance:=objActualBalance)
            Return CType(objActualBalance.Value("TOTAL_BAL"), Decimal)
        Catch ex As Exception
            Return 0
        Finally
            objARAccount = Nothing : objReturn = Nothing : objActualBalance = Nothing
        End Try
    End Function
    Public Function GetCustomerHighestDunningLevel(ByVal strCustomerID As String) As Integer
        Dim objDebtorCreditAccount, objReturn, objHighestDunningLevelD As Object
        Dim objTEST1 As Object
        Try
            objDebtorCreditAccount = Me.p_sapBapi.GetSAPObject("DebtorCreditAccount", Me.ConvertCustomerID(strCustomerID), "0001")
            objDebtorCreditAccount.GetHighestDunningLevel(Return:=objReturn, HighestDunningLevelD:=objHighestDunningLevelD)
            Return CType(objHighestDunningLevelD.Value("DUNN_LEVEL"), Integer)
        Catch ex As Exception
            Return 0
        Finally
            objDebtorCreditAccount = Nothing : objReturn = Nothing : objHighestDunningLevelD = Nothing
        End Try
    End Function
The error message I get is:
Message: The runtime object of type DebtorCreditAccount with the persistent key 00000480060001 could not be created in the Business Object Repository.
Message-Nr: 826
Workarea: OL
R/3 error message: Object does not exist
Please give me some input on how to proceed!
Best Regards,
Niklas

Thanks Vijaya for your fast reply. The parameters that I am giving as input are however correct.
I have investigated the problem a bit further and tried some other calls.
If I just chose to create an object of the type DebtorCreditAccount (without submitting any parameters) and then use the same method call as before (se code in topic above) I get the following error: Mandatory parameter HIGHESTDUNNINGLEVELA missing. This must mean that it knows that something is missing.
objDebtorCreditAccount = Me.p_sapBapi.GetSAPObject("DebtorCreditAccount")
objDebtorCreditAccount.GetHighestDunningLevel(Return:=objReturn, HighestDunningLevelD:=objHighestDunningLevelD)
If if add the mandatory parameter HIGHESTDUNNINGLEVELA I get the error message "The persistent key for an business object instance of type DebtorCreditAccount has not been set. Cannot invoke method GETHIGHESTDUNNINGLEVEL. This I interpret as the object has not been right instantiated. This brings me back to square one.
objDebtorCreditAccount = Me.p_sapBapi.GetSAPObject("DebtorCreditAccount")
objDebtorCreditAccount.GetHighestDunningLevel(HIGHESTDUNNINGLEVELA:="0", Return:=objReturn, HighestDunningLevelD:=objHighestDunningLevelD)
Grateful for a response!

Niklas

Dunning Level 4 without printing dunning letters

Hi,
We need to have the dunning level updated in the customer master, but does not want to generate the letters. It is for last dunning level 4.
We want to process the letters outside SAP for this level 4.
The F150 run is not updating the dunning level 4 if we have removed the form assignment to this level. What to do?
Regds,
Servesh

Hi,
Please note that the system updates the dunning levels in the customer master only when the printing of dunning letter is completed in F150. So printing the dunning letter is needed.
However you can print with this printout and can divert the output to a dummy printer via BTE 00001040 u201CDUNNING: Determine output deviceu201D. So the letter will not get printed actually.
Regards,
Gaurav

Through Programaticaly How To change Dunning Procedure and Dunning level

I am having the requirement to change the dunning procedure and dunning level programatically.
Is there any Function module or BAPI or sample code where I can change the dunning procedure and push the dunning level to
30(No matter at what level but it has to push to 30).

Try these function modules available through T.code FQEVENTS
FKK_SAMPLE_0351 or FKK_SAMPLE_0307 or FKK_SAMPLE_0744 or FKK_SAMPLE_0304
Or try creating one procedure to exclusively handle a particular level /dunning activity only and replace the procedure in the master data
Hope it offers some help
