Referencing invoice vs. sales order in credit memo
Can someone please explain to me why one would create a credit memo referencing an invoice as opposed to a sales order? What would the business scenario be for this case?
Thanks,
Because Invoice is the official document for transactions. Your customer has got the original invoice and not sales order. So while sending Credit/Debit note print to customer you need to mention the invoice no. on it. It becomes easy to print invoice no.
Also, always order and invoice may not have 1:1 relationship.
There may be cases that ordered quantity and price and that of invoice varies. Invoice quantity, price, terms are considered as final.
Thanks

Copy control from Sales order to Credit memo-VTAA
Hi
We have a below requirement..
While copying from sales order to Credit memo order type,defualt payment terms in credit memo order type should be always change to NT00(payable immdtly due date)
So we had written a routine under sales order copying .VOFM-901
In VTAA we have set 901 instead of 101 under Copying requirements for transferring business data-under change header view..
But while creating sales order type CR with reference to normal sales order,it is not copying the NT00 payment term..
Can u tell us whether any other settings required in VTAA.
Note:We had copied existing 101 to 901 with addition logic -
IF VBAK-AUART = 'CR'.
VBKD-ZTERM = 'NT00'.
ENDIF.
Regards
SudhaHi Sudha,
The coding added in 101 is not enough to achieve your requirement, because of the fact that the VBKD-ZTERM will be filled again with the original value from CVBKD in the copy routine on the item level. (For example 102 for OR to OR in standard system)
Could you please create another routine 902(adding the addition coding to 102) and replace it on copy control for item level?
It should work then.

Change price sign during copy from Sales order to credit memo
Dear All,
due to external system reasons we I need to manage one sales order type using not necessarily positive amounts.
A custom logic (based on structural elements, tax information and sign of the amount) permits to identify the right billing type document to use.
Example (using a simplified logic) if the amount is positive the custom logic will determine an invoice.
and if the amount is negative a credit memo.
In VTFA copy rules has been defined but it seem that using transfer rules at item level (defined on VOFM) it is not possible to access and change the sign of the amount (net price will be enough) in order to have a negative amount copied into a positive amount of a credit memo.
The following test has been done without succeed:
custom routine on VOFM to change sign of VBRP-NETWR...but the price is 0 when the routine is called
Using pricing type M - No effect
Every hint will be highly appreciated.

Different tax codes for a Sales order and Credit memo
Dear All,
We have created a sales order and in the invoice some X Tax code is determined in the Account document.
But when we created a Credit memo request with reference to the same Sales order, we are getting different tax code in the Accounting document of Credit Memo.
Kindly clarify how is it possible.
Regards,
MullairajaHI
Credit memo request with reference to the same Sales order
Because Suppose
Case 1 : you created Sale order 100 PC & Delivery 50 PC, Invoice raised 50 PC
In that above case if you take Sale order reference system will take 100 PC , but logically you need to raise Credit memo for 50 PC
Like that we can create Some cases , so try to create credit memo request based on Invoice not for based on Sale order number
Coming to you Query , try to check the Ship to party for that line item and also check the master data's once
I hope you understand

Regd creation of New Sales Order Type - Credit Memo Request
Hello Gurus,
I have created a New Sales Order Type as per the given requirements. This is a Credit Memo Request. I have done all that are needed from SD perspective.
Can you please let me know what needs to be done from FI-CO perspective when a New Sales Order Type is created and this is a Credit Memo Request. If some one can let me know the customizations that needs to be done it will be very helpful for me.
Thanks,
SNK.Hi,
As per my understanding, there is nothing to be required from FI-CO perspective, in case when you defined a document type in SD.
During the sales order processing the SD-FI interface happenes for following activities
1) Credit check (In case you use Credt management)
2) Tax determination
For more knowledge
go through the link given below.

Block return sales orders or credit notes?
Hi,
Could someone please explain how I block return sales orders or credit notes?
Also is there a way of searching which sales order documet types have been used for credit notes?
ThanksHi Friend,
The billing block is comming from the tx. VOV8 -> choose the Order type -> billing
block -> you could set billing block here.
In Shipping column, there is also a field Delivery block where you could set delivery
block for the order type.
Or you could also set delivery block and billing block manually when you create the order.
You could check order type which is used as return or credit memo request by following way:
SE16 -> TVAK -> use selection criteria VBTYP = H and K
H Returns
K Credit memo request
Then excecute, you could get the order type you want.
Best regards,

Balance sales order in credit management
HI all,
I need to exclude the sales order in credit management. This order was been created last year and the billing document was been canceled last year too.
Now, the sales document has been concluded and outbound delivery has been in process. The post goods issue has been confirmed.
Someone knows how do I exclude this balance?
Best regards,
Julio CésarDear,
If Accounting done=When you cancel the invoice, system automatically reverse the debit balance into credit balance in party account balance.
If Accounting Not done = when you cancel invoice there are no account document. so that's why no effect on party account.

Link between sales order to Credit management
Where can we link between sales order to Credit management?
HI Gopala rao.,
In VOV8 sales document type there is <b>credit limit & Credit group</b> Where we asign the credit mage,ment data to Order
The configuration part of credit managemnt is
CREDIT MANAGEMENT:
A credit limit may be a customers credit limit, which is the permitted limit of value of open items, such as invoices not yet paid, plus the value of open sales orders.
The credit limit is the total combined value of the following documents:
Net value of sales order
Open Sales order: order created, but not delivered
Open deliveries: delivered, but not invoiced
Open billing doc: value of billing doc, which has not yet been forwarded to accounting
Open items: forwarded to accounting, but not settled.
Types of Credit Check
Simple Credit Check
Automatic Credit Check
o Static
o Dynamic
Simple Credit Check:
SPRO- IMG- SD- Basic Functions- Credit Mgmt/ Risk Mgmt- Simple Credit Check- Assign Credit Check to Doc Types.
Based on sales doc types
It will check all the above-mentioned docs & if the credit limit exceeds, the system responds in the way defined by you in the configuration menu.
Cannot differentiate according to customer
3 ways to Control the Simple Credit Check:
A: warning
B: error message: the doc cannot be saved
C: warning message with delivery block: the doc can be saved but is automatically blocked for delivery.
Automatic Credit Check:
This credit mgmt control is maintained by using the automatic credit control functionality. The automatic credit control divides the sales doc types, the delivery doc types, & goods issue into specific credit groups. It also uses the customers risk category as assigned to the CMD of the payer & assigns an outcome proc to the combination of the above 2 objects, i.e. the credit group & customer risk category along with the credit control area. The definition of customers risk category is carried out in the fin accounting module.
A customers risk category is a grouping category that controls the credit check when automatic credit control takes place. Thus one can assign high-risk customers to risk category for e.g. A01, medium risk to B01 and low risk to C01.
Automatic credit check divides customers in to 3 categories:
High-risk customers,
Low risk customers &
Medium risk customers.
A credit check can only occur at 3 places: Credit Group
Sales order: for high risk customers
Delivery: for medium risk customers
Goods Issue: for low risk customers
Credit Control Area (CCA): highest organizational element in credit management. A credit control area is an organizational unit that is comprised of one or more company codes. A company code can have no more than one credit control area. Defined by FI.
Menu Path to create Credit Control Area: OB45: FI people.

One merely creates a credit group for each differentiation in the doc type. You enter the credit groups when you configure the sales doc types for credit management & define the automatic credit check. The following credit groups are contained in the standard R/3 system:
01: credit group for sales order
02: credit group for delivery
03: credit group for goods issue
CG (Credit Group) Doc Credit Group
01 Credit group for sales order
02 Credit group for delivery
03 Credit group for goods issue
Assign Sales Documents & Delivery Documents:
Sales Doc Type Descp Check Credit Credit Group
OR Std Order D 01
Delivery Type Descp Del Credit Group GI Credit Group
LF Delivery 02 03
Define for each sales doc type whether a credit check should be carried out. Enter D if an automatic credit check should be carried out.
Specify a Credit Group
Specify a Credit Group for the Delivery Type for which you want to carry out a credit check
Specify a Goods Issue Credit Group for the Delivery Type for which a credit check is to be carried out for goods issue.
SIMPLE CREDIT CHECK CANNOT BE ASSIGNED TO DOCUMENTS.
Define Automatic Credit Control:
One can now assign settings to the combination of the Credit Control Area, the Customer Risk Category & the Credit Group.
CCA Risk Cat Credit Group Credit Control
4500 001 01 Low risk sales orders
4500 001 02 Low risk deliveries

4500 003 01 High risk sales orders
4500 003 02 High risk deliveries
4500 003 03 High risk goods issue
Select line item and go to details, you can decide whether to do Static or Dynamic Credit Check. Credit Horizon can also assigned here. Additional function checks can be performed here:
A credit check when the maximum document value is exceeded.
A credit check when changing critical fields.
The risk category assignment occurs in the same place as the customers credit limit, which is the customers credit management screen. That is, the risk category is assigned to the customer by the Finance in transaction code FD32.
The customer credit master record is divided in to 5 views:
Overview Screen: gives an overview of credit settings in relation to the customer, including his credit limit, credit exposure, the %tage of credit limit used, his payment data & his risk category.
Address: view gives the customers address details as they appear in CMD
Central Data: is a view that shows the total credit limit the customer can receive across all credit control areas as well as the maximum limit he can receive in one credit control area.
Status: view shows the customers actual individual details according to particular CCA being investigated. This includes his credit limit, percentage used, credit exposure, risk category, whether he is blocked due to credit or not.
Payment history: view displays the payments made by the customer for a particular credit control area where a comp code is assigned.
Static Credit Check Dynamic Credit Check
Net Doc Value Net Doc Value
Open Order Open Order
Open Delivery Open Delivery
Open Billing Open Billing
Open Item Open Item
Compares the total combined values of the above-mentioned documents to credit limit. Plus credit horizon. Compares the values of the following documents to credit limit + credit horizon.
Credit horizon has an attached time period that states that the system is not to include sales orders in the total of outstanding items created after that specified period i.e. for the purpose of evaluating credit, you want the system to ignore all open orders that are due for delivery after the horizon date. Maintained for low & medium risk customers.
Update Groups
Basically it is a info structure where system stores all the data about credit limit. The credit relevant data is updated in a info structure, where it is accessed & updated. Thus each automatic credit control must be assigned an update group.
Update Group 000012
Update Group 000015: delivery & billing
Update Group 000018: sales order, delivery & billing.
Update group 000012, updates at:
Sales doc: increased order value
Delivery: decreased order value & increased delivery value
Billing: decreased delivery value & increased billing amount
Invoice: decreased billing amount & increased open item value.
Release Blocked Sales Order/ Deliveries:
VKM3: sales order
VKM5: delivery
VKM4: both
One can see the offending document. Note on the right hand side, the Status Field. This shows the check, the doc failed. If this field is empty, the doc did not fail a credit check, even though it may be in the list of SD documents that are required to be released.
To release the doc, one indicates the doc to be released and then clicks on the Release Button. The result is the offending doc entry, highlighted green. One then proceeds to save, after which you are informed the doc number has been released.
Net value with sub total A, in pricing proc, will be the basis for credit limit.
REWARD if helpfull

A/P Down payment invoice cannot be drawn to credit memo
Hi Experts
When i try to draw a A/P down payment invoice into a A/P credit memo, it gives me an error like Basetype mismatch what could be the reason for this ?
Thanks & Regards
Kanishka WickramaHi!
You need to use Copy From option to book Credit Note on Down Payment. Also, if your Down Payment is Reconcilled (Payment Done) you need to cancel the payment first. Make sure the Downpayment is in OPEN status. -
Credit sales order with credit check without top up limit
Hi Experts,
I have a silly question, just wanted to confirm is this possible in SAP system?
I have check thru seem no such function.
My user requested a requirement is credit sales order with credit limit check however without top up credit limit to specific customer. eventually allow this specific customer sales order, delivery order without blocking and created succesfully?
Thanks & Regards,
Yong Kok WahHi,
Use a seprate risk category for such customer. In OVA8 Setting for the given risk category set the Credit Limit Seasonal factor.
By means of above setting system will support the concept of TOP Up credit limit (for a given time period) for given customer against said credit limit.

Check if the Sales Order is credit block.
Hello Everyone,
I have a requirement related to third party sales order and delivery. In the first system, a sales is created and then the PO gets created. Upon the creation of the PO a IDOC gets generated. The inbound IDOC in the other system triggers and a sales order gets created. The requirement is that if sales order in the first system is on credit block then automatically the sales order in the second system should go on delivery block.
The solution that I have thought is that when the IDOC gets created after PO generation there itself add a flag to IDOC in case of credit block in sales order. BUT HOW TO CHECK CREDIT BLOCK of the SALES ORDER IN THE CUSTOMER EXIT?
Any help is appreciable.Hi Rahul,
Need some more clarification on why sales order is created in the second system, if it is a third party process ?
are you creating delivery from the corresponding sales order of second system to replenish sales order of first system ?
are you using standard IDOC type for creating Sales order from PO ?, if so check the Corresponding Function module which may have user exists
check Function module : IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDRSP
At first system, if the sales order is credit block you can restrict creation of PR-->PO in the first system itself, this is a standard Functionality
This would be easier than looking for user and coding in IDOC function module
try and revert
thanks

Question about Sales Return and Credit memo
Good Day All B1 experts,
I am a SAP B1 newbie and am taking charge in implementing B1 at my office. I am doing a test today on sales return and credit memo. After I posted both documents, I went to view transaction journals and inventory posting status report to check my work. I saw the journal Debit - Sales Return / Credit - customer A/R account, and items are returned to the inventory. However, I do not see any adjustment journals for debiting Inventory and crediting COGS. Is there something else I have missed in regards to G/L account setup?
Thanks in advance for your time in answering my question.
SunnySunny,
If you process a Item type Credit Memo (NOT SERVICE) directly without copying it from Sales Returns, there will be 4 entries in the posted JE.
Credit Customer
Debit Sales Revenue (or returns depends on what you have mapped)
Credit COGS
Debit Inventory
If you do a Return the JE would look like
Credit COGS
Debit Inventory
Please check if you have selected a NON-dropship warehouse.
