Promise to pay in advanced collections

Hello,
We are planning to use the IEX_PROMISES_PUB.INSERT_PROMISE API to create a promise to pay for an invoice. Need help working with it, what parameters to pass and how it will work. Does anybody have a sample on using this API? What is the resource id that needs to be passed?

Hi Mark,
Many thanks for your feedback.
Actually, i think that this is a strange situation since after i updated the configuration in:
SPRO=> Financial Supply Chain Management => Collections Management => Basic Settings for Collections Management => Promise to Pay => Create Status Profile
With the following data,
Cde - Status - Sistem Code - System ID
20 - Open/New - 001 - Open/New
30 - In Processing - 002 - In Process
35 - Confirmed - 008 - Confirmed
40 - Canceled - 009 - Voided/Deleted/Canceled
50 - Closed - 007 - Closed
And also, updating correspondingly in
SPRO=> Financial Supply Chain Management => Collections Management => Basic Settings for Collections Management => Promise to Pay => Process Integration => Define Automatic Status Changes
And changed from 50 to 35, i was able to, in the worklist, to withdraw a promise to pay.
Now, i'm just not totally shore if this configuration is totally correct.
Best Regards,
Bruno Sousa

Report on Promise to Pay/ Collection History

Hi, We want a report on promise to pay(how many promises were kep, broken etc) to determine collection history.
Should we just have a query on UDM_P2P_ATTR table or there are more details which we can get. Can we get promise to pay and agent who contacted the customer for that particular promise to pay on the same report.

Nik,
There is some great business content available in BW past Enhancement Pack 4
If you want to write your own reports there are a few things to consider.
Do you want to report what someone has done today in terms of actions - so amount promised today, or do you want to report on the amount promised FOR today.
Lastly to monitor performance you might want to compare successful and unsuccesful contact, as well as the outcomes, so number of P2P's, disputes, notes etc.
Please e mail me as I may have some suitable reports for you..

FI Collection Management - Promise-to-Pay upload

Hi,
We are working on FISCM - Collection Management and need to upload legacy data to SAP.
We have this requirement to upload Promise to pay from our legacy system to SAP.
We tried to find some standard bapi or transaction but no luck. Since it also used oop control framework even BDC is of no help.
Has any one come across such scenario? Please advise or share.
Thanks.
Regards,
Pankaj Singh.

Farhan -
I just tried it in my Sandbox env and it shows immediately both in Invoice tab as well as Promise to Pay tab.
Also it appears instantaneously in the two "State" columns in Invoice tab. Same is the case when that invoice is selected in Invoice tab and hitting the "list the Promises for invoice" button.
All of the above is Standard SAP behavior, if there is any deviation from above, please check your 1) proper installation of product/packages 2) all standard settings are in place. If everything seems "normal" raise an OSS mesg.

Loading pdf and Word into Collections Custmer Conatcts and Promise to Pay

Can you load upload pdf's and other documents into customer contacts and promise to pay s ? When I tried to do it it is converting to text and uploading junk. Text documents are getting uploaded ok.

OK - assuming you are on Enhancement Pack 5 - and activated the relevant business function sets.
You cant add a pdf or word document to a P2P - as far as I can see.
You can however add a note to the lines - and add a pdf or word doc to a note
You can also add a word document or pdf to a customer contact - when you add in the result.
Hope that helps

Promise to pay and payment method

Hi all,
The following is the case in Collections Management. When you use the payment method in AR you will find that you will run into problem logging a P2P on items that have a payment method filled in. Now for direct debit it would be under discussion if this is correct or not since a direct debit goes thru F110 however when you have other payment method filled in (like banktranfer, payment by check or BoE) then you have a problem. Personnally i think this is a bug or conflicting functionality so i already discussed this with SAP.
You can manually bypass the above by setting the payment block on the invoice (from the worklist) but that is a lot of work. Now my question:
How difficult is it to create a user exit on the BSID table to fill in the payment block on the customers/ company codewith all documents that have a certain payment block?
I was thinking to use the following variable fields in the UE:
BSID-BUKRS u2013 Company Code
BSID-KUNNR u2013 Customer Number
BSID-ZLSCH u2013 Payment Method
BSID-ZLSPR u2013 Payment Block
Does any of you have experience with this, is it possible? Might there be another way?
Thanks in advance

Hello James,
Following are the major differences in promise to pay and installment plans
1)When you create installments, new statistical items are created by the system using the main transaction of installments in the table of open items DFKKOP. However, new statistical items are not created in the case of promise to pay. Just a new promise to pay document is created from where you can see individual items and amount due to date etc
2)When you create an installment, you have the option of viewing installment amounts in the account balance display or the original document(against which the installment was created). Incase of promise to pay, you cannot see individual promise to pay items in account balance display(FPL9). you only see the original document
3)When you create an installment against a recievable, the ABWBL field in DFKKOP is updated with the document number of the installment plan created. Same is true for promise to pay documents as well
4) Installments nt possible for items that have been sent to coll agencies. This is not true for P2P
In my perspective, installments is a very flexible way of deferring due dates and breaking line items. If you use the functionality for doing it you will have much wider options in terms of clearing control and reporting. However, P2P(as i see it) is just an agreement with consumer and is not as flexible as installments and might make you life a little difficult
I hope this will help. I'd suggest you also take input from other experts here. Thanks!

Promise to Pay without selecting invoices.

Dear All,
I had a question from our business users to see if its possible to create promise to pay for a particular amount, without selecting invoices. Since, they say the customer just promises to pay a particular amount to release the orders that are on hold, and they wont specify the invoices against which the promised payment is for.
So, just wanted to know if there is any such possibility?
Thanks in advance.
Krishna

Hi Krishna,
No you can't. In the screen of transaction it is mandatory to assign an invoice. Please, to make sure read the link below:

FSCM-COL: Problem on withdrawing a Promise to Pay in Worklist

Hi all,
Iu2019m facing a problem in my Worklist with some Promises to Pay that I created in my development system.
When I try to withdraw it, a message appears indicating u201CAutomatic close status 50 is not validu201D, message number UDM_MSG027.
Now, I have a u201CStatus Profileu201D (in the promise to pay configuration part) that as the status 50 (u201CClosedu201D) and that is assigned to the system status 008 (u201CConfirmedu201D) and event for case u201CCompletedu201D.
I customized also the status 50 as the u201CAutomatic Status for Promise to Payu201D in:
SPRO => Financial Supply Chain Management > Collections Management >Basic Settings For Collection Management -> Promise To Pay -> Process Integration ->Define Automatic Status Changes
Do you guys have any idea what could be the problem ?
Thans in advance.

I am unable to generate a Dunning Proposal for Promise to Pay items

Please advise how or if its even possible to generate a dunning proposal for overdue Promise to Pay items. Currently after debugging I find that the Dunning Proposal filters out any items that are from open promises. Is there a way to generate the dunning proposal for promise to pay items that are overdue? I'm using ECC 6.0 EhP 4.0 PSCD module

Within SPRO there is some config to define a dunning block for a promise to pay. I would suggest you check here.
FSCM >> Collections Management >> Int with AR >> Promise to Pay >> Make settings for Promise to Pay.
If this does not work, I would assume this is because you are using FI-CA and the config is slightly different.

If you want post the invoice prior to GR than you should not check the Gr-based invoice in the PO invoice tab then system will allow you to post the invoice.
and later you can post the GR.
until you post the GR you will see the open GR in MB5S tcode.

In Oracle E Business Suite, Advanced Collections - Collections Form..

Hi All,
Can anyone please let me know how we can get mapping for the columns that are referenced on advanced collections - collection form. We cannot get the same from help as many of the columns are mapping columns.
Mainly I struck in the notes and Work items tables, where I could not get the data. Any suggestions are great help.
Base Tables mapping is helpful.
Thanks in advance.

When the JRE was installed/configured on the workstations was the jar cache placed on a LAN drive instead of the local drive? We have experienced poor performance with both the JRE and Jinitiator when the Workstation Sysadmins configured the jar cache to be located on a LAN drive. Also is the size of the jar cache on the workstation sufficient to hold all of your required jar files. It could be downloading the jar files all the time.
Overall our performance with the JRE is comparible to the Jinitiator.
Sorry I have not experienced the problem that you are having with you pdf reports so I can't provide any comments on it.

Entered a promise to pay, but had to mail a check.

I entered into a promise to pay on Saturday (6/20) and I had all hopes paying it yesterday (6/25), but when I went to do it, I was declined, which I thought was odd, since I had just cashed my check earlier that day. Thought about trying again later and went to the store. My card was declined there too. So I called the fraud service for my bank and they said that they had to put a block on my card due to suspicious activity and to go to the bank when they opened to be issued a new card.
So I freaked and wrote a check to Comcast and mailed it today (6/26). What I'm wondering is if anyone has ever done that and if Comcast will suspend my service soon. I work from home, so I need the internet for my job.

Hello Raisondetre,
I'm sorry for your troubles. I will send you a Private Message to discuss this further.
Thank You!

Regd.Promise to Pay - Notes POID

Hi FSCM Gurus,
This is related to Promise to Pay Case, Notes Field.
Each case id has one notes field in which any Customer Notes can be stored.
To save this notes, notes GUID is required.
Could you please let me know where I can get this, Notes GUID / SPPOID in relation to the UDM_P2P_ATTR-CASE_GUID?
I see that if the UDM_P2P_ATTR-CASE_GUID = 4C2C61825E9252A4E1000000AC1013E2, then the Notes GUID is like 4C2C61835E9252A4E1000000AC1013E2. The change is in the 8th letter in the two GUID's. Here it is 2 in the first GUID and in the next GUID it is 3.
But couldn't find, where the program is getting it from like a table/view etc.
Please help me in finding this table.
Thanks and Regards,
Dinakaran.R

Can you please tell us how did you solve the problem.

Promise to Pay not creating a dunning block

Hi,
I inserted the dunning block in config in the 'Make Settings for Promise to Pay', however when I create a promise to pay 9even when its broken) the dunning block does not update the line item (where i would have expected it) nor does it update the amster record. We also have BTE 0001765
Has anyone come across this before and can you point me in the right direct for this to work, thanks
Eoin

sounds like it is working according to the SAP Help from F1
Dunning Block for Items with Open Promises to Pay
Use
Has the effect that no dunning notices are sent to a business partner for an item if there is a promise to pay for the respective invoice and the promise to pay can be kept within the agreed deadline. The tolerance days are taken into account.
Dependencies
If you have entered a dunning block, during the dunning run, the system checks whether there is a promise to pay that is not overdue for the invoice of an item to be dunned. If this is so, the system excludes the item from dunning using the dunning block entered.
You can reset the dunning block when you are processing the dunning proposal. Therefore, we recommend that you create special dunning blocks for promises to pay. This enables you to differentiate these items when processing the dunning proposal.
Technical information
The integration with dunning is implemented with Business Transaction Event 00001765 (Publish and Subscribe). The event can be implemented more than once. This means that you can influence the system behavior delivered by SAP without modifications.
