Regarding Credit Group in Credit Management

If we maintained Risk Category for Order, Delivery & PGI level. Then how it reflects .
I want to Know the effects. Thankful if anyone replies for it.
Regards
Madhav

Hi madhav
We have the option of maintaining the Risk category at Order, Delivery & PGI level. because while maintaining FD32 for the customer we can assign the risk category at any level (Order, Delivery & PGI level.)
Say for the example if the customer should be blocked only at PGI level then you can maintain OVA8 at sales order level & delivery level by assigning Warning message but for PGI level you can assign a error message and assign the Risk category of PGI in FD32. So that the credit value will be updated only at the time of doing PGI

Sd: credit management

Hi all,
I'm working on a project regarding credit management. I'm in transaction FD32.
I understand the minig of each field, but I can understand how they work together. I mean How does work the Credit horizon date? In customizing I set the horizon in two month and now my question is how this value is related with Receivables and sales value??
thanks in advance

In your automatic control for credit check you will be mentioning what docs to be taken for arriving at the credit check.
This is compared against your credit horizon. Meaning if you have mentioned orders + deliveries+ Invoices and the credit horizon of Two months from today then only those docs which fll withing two months from today will be taken into consideration fr the credit check. If there are deliveries for orders which are after the two months then it will be ignored.

Credit Management - In delivery process released document blocked

Hello SD Experts,
This is regarding credit management. we have configured Delivery level credit check.
As per the settings System block the delivery and FI credit representative release the blocked delivery documents.
Logistics processing the delivery , Picking and Packing with out problem.
While processing the shipping activity with combined delivery VT01n - when checking Shipment started tab its automatically going back to credit block.
I have configured in the Risk Category under Released documents are still unchecked as
Deviation -- Blank
Number of Days as 15
My requirement is once released from delivery no need to do credit check again - with any deivation and Number of days limit also
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in Advance
Jaffar

Hi Jaffar,
As per your explanation this is happening because of Number of Days as 15
This specifies the number of days after which a changed document must be re-checked for credit.
This function is used for checking documents that have already been released by a credit representative, but that have
subsequently been changed. The system does NOT carry out another credit check if the following conditions are met:
The value of the changed order is not greater than the value already approved for credit (inclusive of the deviation factor),
AND
The current date is not greater than the original release date plus the number of days specified here.
As per this there might be any changes in released document or changes in delivery dates,due to this reason system
blocking it again,try to reduce the number of days from 15 to 5 or as per your convenience and check.
Regards
Ram

Instead of copy pasting from standard, it would have been better had you advised the member to press F1 against that field (Number of days). Please dont ever try to copy paste from other source which is strictly prohibited

Typical requirement in Credit Management-

Hi ALL,
I have posted same query earlier too,but i havent get any satisfactory reply.so
time being i closed that thread.
Here is my client req, regarding Credit Management.
Client is restricting customers credit based on Credit period ( payment terms)
Client wants to check customers based on Credit limit & credit period whichever is earlier/lower.
eg: Customer -X credit limit: 1,00,000/-
Credit period - 30 days
then when creating Order, if customer's outstanding exceeds credit limit then
block should trigger- ( which is std settings)
- if customer has not cleared open items which is 30 days old,block should trigger
irrespective of value. ( which can be achieved through "open item"- in OVA8)-
customer place the release schedules everymonth, for the next 3 months.
eg: Material- A, req - April- 1000pcs / May-2000pcs/June-1500 pcs
where as in Std, I have maintained "Fixed date & qtty" in availability check in OVZJ
so that only "confirmed qtty" should transferred to MD04 ( as per credit block,requirement will not
be confirmed in schedule lines in order for all items)
as per credit check result,requirement of May/June should not transfer to MD04
only April req should transfer to MD04.
Any Ideas -

Hi,
I'm not sure, but perhaps you can define an own subroutine in OVB8, subroutine 101 (report LV07A101). Design the algorithm for months and check it.
Another idea. Check the BADI 'MD_CHANGE_MRP_DATA', method 'CONSIDER_OTHER_SD_TYPES'. Considerer the example implementation.
I hope this helps you,
Regards,
Eduardo

This is reg credit management

this is regarding credit management.
the requirement is there are 4 line items in the order.
now if i want to take into consideration the first 2 line items only for credit check. the remaining line items r not to be taken for credit check
how i can configure this can any one tell me

Hi,
You van do this by taking into acount the line item number..
Or you could also have a flag for the line item for your reg credit management.
You could then build a mask specifying the condition based on the flag or the line item number.
The items in the mask are to be taken for reg credit management.

Credit management automatic credit control use of credit group

Hello gurus
1)In the credit management we have credit groups( which enables us to combine different sales
document types for the purposes of credit management).
In the simple credit check also we will assign the doc types to check the credit. Then please tell me why we need credit groups in automatic credit control? Here also we can assign the doc types to check the credit ?then what exactly is the use of credit group ?
2)where will we specify the total credit amount allowed of the credit control area?
3)In the automatic credit control (ova8) against to static check box option we have open orders and open delivers checkboxes. is this two boxes only specific to static or it also belongs to dyanic?
Is it necessary to check this boxes?
4)is any one have used any of the routines in automatic credit control( document controlling tab we have no credit check field here we specify the routine? If any business need please share with me
Thank you in advance for all the replies

Hi
For your 1st query , In credit mgmt we assign credit grps to sales document type. So as you said we will assign credit grps at simple credit check and coming to the Automatic credit check we assign credit grp for the sales document type also .But the difference is credit grp can be at order level or Delivery Level or PGI level in OVA8 in Automatic credit check .
Coming to your 2nd Query , we will specify the total credit limit in FD32.
For your 3rd query , In OVA8 apart from the static check we check the boxes open orders and open deliveries also because once you activate Automatic credit check and once you maintain credit limit for any customer then system will check the open orders and open deliveries also of that customer
Coming to your last query the routine feild can be used when some requirements have to be fulfilled then only automatic credit check should work for customers. or else the sales order ->delivery->PGI will happen normally

Regarding open items in credit management

Dear friends
My query is that is it possible to restrict credit management for credit and debit open items? See i am using oldest open item blocking in my scenario. Now credit and debit amounts are both considered as open item for credit management. I want only invoice (Debit entry) for consideration and not his payment(credit entry).
Please advise is it possible or not and if possible where to define that???
With regards
Inder

Hi,
All business have their own credit management needs, SAP allows you to specify your own automatic credit checks based on a variety of criteria. You can also specify at which critical points in the sales and distribution cycle the system carries out these checks.
SM30 - Table/View
V_TVTW Define Distribution Channel
V_TVTA_KKB Assign sales area to credit control area
V_T014 FI - Define Credit Control Area
T001CM - FI Assign Permitted Credit Control Area to company code
OVXG - Set up Sales Areas
e.g. Sales Organization
Distribution Channel Division Distribution Channel Division
FD32 - Customer Credit Management
OVAK - Define credit limit check by sales document type
Check Credit
A Credit limit check and warning message
B Credit limit check and error message (no sales order can be created)
C Credit limit check and delivery block (block delivery if hit credit limit)
Options B and C -> used for checking open order values (when you create/change the sales order)
D Automatic credit control with open order values
More control in transaction OVA8 - Automatic credit control
You check for open orders and deliveries, or just open deliveries.
or open order values with other options
Credit group
Allows you to combine different sales document types for the credit limit check
VKM1 - Blocked SD Documents Finance have to released the delivery block
OVAD - Define credit limit check by delivery order
whether the automatic credit check occurs at the time of delivery creation and/or goods issue
OVA7 - Define credit limit check by item category
Set whether to include/exclude item category for credit limit check
OVA6 - Define credit group. You can groups together different business transactions which should be dealt with in the same manner with regard to the credit check.
You enter the credit groups when you configure the sales document types for credit management and define the (D automatic credit check).
SAP default credit groups
01 credit group for sales order
02 credit group for delivery
03 credit group for goods issue
OVA8 - Automatic credit control Double click on the line items
You can have the followings credit limit check :-
Static
Depends on the customer total value of open orders, deliveries, billing documents and open items.
Open items
No of days open
Overdue open items checks is based on the ratio of open items that are overdue by a certain number of days.
Max open items %
The customer balance must not exceed a certain percentage.
Oldest open items
If you dont want to deliver to the customer at all when even only 1 invoice is overdue.
Tick the Check for Oldest Open Item and Set the field Days oldest item = 1.
Days oldest item
No of days allowed for overdue or payment terms.
Use of the credit check Oldest Open Item. If a user attempts to alter the order quantity of a released sales document
that was previously blocked, it would be reblocked again by the system. The system only reblocks the sales document if the new order quantity is above a certain % amount.
Released documents are still unchecked
The preset % is whatever you want to set it as when configuring your automatic credit processing. You enter a deviation % and number of days,eg, you can set it so that an order can be changed by up to 10% within 30 days of original order entry date without it going back on credit block.
Next Review Date
If a customer has a credit limit of 1000 USD, and you would like to restrict this credit limit only to be available in current month (say March). If the document day is in April then the credit limit is zero.
You can use the NextReview date and Number of days fields and combined it with the Last int.review field in customer credit master Status view (FD32).

Update group change in credit management

Dear All
We had earlier update group '00012' for the credit management. Now we want to change the update group to '00015' . We have changed so , it is working fine , but the earlier credit exposure was based on update group '00012' , hence sales value is open sales order value . Now while applying group '00015' , it should consider only open deliveries
After changing , we have also executed f.28 to re-organise the credit limit, still the credit exposure is not getting updated.
Kindly suggest any remedy.

AVS

Update groups in credit management

HI SAP Experts,
can any body explain the functionality of update groups in credit management. can we create customize it
apart from standard one. in normal implementation what update group is used extensively ? why?
yours,
Mahesh.

Update Group
The credit update controls when the values of open sales orders, deliveries, and billing documents are updated. The open order value is only updated for schedule lines that are relevant for delivery.
Update group 000012
When a Sales order is created, system increases open order value from delivery-relevant schedule lines. S066-OEIKW (S066 information structure, OEIKW- Open sales order credit value (schedule lines) ) goes up.
When order is delivered, system reduces open order value from delivery-relevant schedule lines and increases open delivery value. S066-OEIKW decreases and S067-OLIKW (Open delivery credit value) increases
When delivery document is billed system reduces open delivery value and increases open billing document value. S067-OLIKW decreases and S067-OFAKW (Open billing document credit value) increases
When billing document is released for financial accounting, system reduces open billing document value and Increases open items (S067-OFAKW decreases)
In Brief when order is created, value of S066 information structure is increased by the open order value. When order is delivered, value of S066 information structure gets decreased decreasing the open order value and value of S067 information structure gets increased increasing the open delivery value. When delivery is invoiced, value of open delivery gets decreased and value of open billing documents gets increased again S067 information structure gets affected. When billing documents are released for accounting value of open invoices gets decreased and value of open items gets increased. S067 information structure value gets decreased.
Update group 000015
When delivery is created, system increases open delivery value and open billing document value
When billing document is released for financial accounting system reduces open billing document value and increases open items.
Update group 000015 does not use open sales order value, but uses only open delivery, open invoice and accounts receivable. 000015 will be used with customers who orders high value sales orders over a long time frame in the future. You donu2019t wish to stop them placing orders, even though you wonu2019t deliver anytime soon, so you only check your companies risk that is u2013 the open delivery, billing and open items value. The open sales order value is not checked, as these orders could be cancelled or by the time. At delivery these become values we need to check.
Update group 000018
If sales order is not relevant for delivery system determines Update group 000018. This update group will be always used by order items which are billed order-related (VBAP-FKREL = B for example).
When sales order is created S067-OLIKW goes up.
When invoice is created S067-OFAKW goes up, S067-OLIKW goes down
When account posting is done u2013> S067-OFAKW goes down and A/R goes up.
When sales order is created system increases open delivery value
When billing document is created for the order, open delivery value decreases and open billing documents value increases.
When billing documents are posted for accounting open billing documents value decreases and accounts receivables increases.
Note
If a document cannot be processed with the update group we specify, the system determines the next possible update it can carry out. For example, if we select Update group 000012 which, at delivery, reduces the open order value and increases the open delivery value. Assume that one item in the order is not relevant for delivery. In this case, the system automatically determines Update group 000018 for this item. Update group 000018 increases the open delivery value for the order item. The system uses the confirmed quantity of delivery-relevant schedule lines to update the order value.

Customer complaint and credit management

Hi,
we have the following business case, credit management activated:
1. a customer has a complain about a delivery (e.g. poor quality/wrong material)
2. the corresponding invoice is shown as an open item in FBL5N
3. a credit note request is created for the sales order, but it can take weeks until it gets released. In the meantime the customer becomes overdue.
4. now the following happens: when the customer wants to place a new order he will be blocked by the credit management.
We first have to release him e.g. via VKM4. The same with deliveries.
Is there a possibility to mark the invoice in question as not relevant for the credit management?
My first idea was to change the credit note requests as relevant for the credit management (VOV8), but unfortunately those requests are not visible in FBL5N. Thus we would loose the overview of invoices in question.
Thanks for your answers...
Cheers,
Marc

hello, PP.
i don't have an answer yet. actually, i will add to your question.
a credit memo request is supposed to be not relevant for delivery. so why is this updating open delivery value? maybe it's SAP standard? maybe credit group 03 (delivery docs) was assigned to the credit memo request doc type? if so, why assign credit management to credit memo requests anyway?
regards.

Credit Management - Maximum time overdue limit for open item

Dear all,
I've this scenario to configure for automatic credit control. A customer is billed on Jan 22nd '10 and now the account receiveable shows an open item. This customer is allowed 52 calendar days to make payment for this invoice, hence no credit block yet. As such, the customer can still make orders.
In my existing configuration, I've already enable "static" credit check on "open orders" and "open deliveries". The static check is to check against the customer's credit limit.
So, if I were to add in the earlier mentioned overdue open items check, is it sufficient to just maintain the field "Days oldestItem" with "52" within the automatic credit control screen?
Thanks.
Steven

Hi
The sytstem will shows oldest open items depending on the payment terms from the invoice date.
Once it crosses the days of payment then it will show in oldest open items
if you want to extend some more days for that then you need to maintain the days in "Days oldestitem" the automatic credit control area
Prerequisites for credit management to work in Sales and Distribution:
1.Assign credit control area to company code
2.Maintain the credit limit in FD32 with details of risk category and the credit limit value
3.Do the settings in OVA8 -automatic credit control area with combination of Credit control area/Risk category /credit group.
4.Assign the credit groups to the sales and delivery document types.
5.Maintain the Subtotal 'A' in the pricing procedure against which value the sytem should check the credit limit.
If you have any further clarifications on above let me know

Damu

Credit Management requirement for cash business

Hi Gurus,
Actually my client business is a cash business, there is no credit concept for the customers.
My requirement is when i create a sales order, system should check the credit balance of the customer(Business receives the payment through cheque and entry is made in f.28 transaction) and should compare with the current document value and if it exceeds, then system should through the error.
And if any open sale orders exists for this customer, system should even consider those values while credit check is happening.
And the exceptions for this requirement is
1.Credit check option should be there only for specific case of customers i,e based on account group of customers.
2.There are very few customers(around 5) where they give credit.
Pls guide me, early resposes woould be highly appreaciable.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Mahendar.

hello, friend.
you can consider using the payment guarantee scenario in credit management. the customer advance payment could be treated sort of as a financial document or payment card.
as for the selective application of credit controls based on customer group, i believe you do this be configuring risk categories and assigning them to the appropriate credit account master data.
regards.

Credit management and Terms of Payment

Hi
Can anybody throw some light on the role of Terms of Payment in .Credit Management.
Thanks in advance
Ravi

Dear sankar ravi,
Credit management
Purpose
Outstanding or uncollectible receivables can spoil the success of the company greatly. Credit Management enables you to minimize the credit risk yourself by specifying a specific credit limit for your customers. Thus you can take the financial pulse of a customer or group of customers, identify early warning signs, and enhance your credit-related decision-making. This is particularly useful if your customers are in financially unstable industries or companies, or if you conduct business with countries that are politically unstable or that employ a restrictive exchange rate policy.
Integration
If you are using the Accounts Receivable (FI-AR) component to manage your accounting and an external system for sales processing, Credit Management enables you to issue a credit limit for each customer. Every time you post an invoice (created in FI-AR), the system then checks whether the invoice amount exceeds the credit limit. Information functions such as the sales summary or early warning list help you to monitor the customers credit situation.
If you are using both the Accounts Receivable (FI-AR) component to manage your accounting and the Sales and Distribution (SD) component for sales processing, you can also use Credit Management to issue credit limits for your customers. You can make settings in Customizing to decide the scope of the check and at what stage in the process (for example, order entry, delivery or goods issue) a credit limit should take place. General information functions are also available for use with credit checks.
Features
If you are using both the SD and FI-AR components, Credit Management includes the following features:
Depending on your credit management needs, you can specify your own automatic credit checks based on a variety of criteria. You can also specify at which critical points in the sales and distribution cycle (for example, order entry, delivery, goods issue) the system carries out these checks.
During order processing, the credit representative automatically receives information about a customers critical credit situation.
Critical credit situations can also be automatically communicated to credit management personnel through internal electronic mail.
Your credit representatives are in a position to review the credit situation of a customer quickly and accurately and, according to your credit policy, decide whether or not to extend credit.
You can also work with Credit Management in distributed systems; for example if you were using centralized Financial Accounting and decentralized SD on several sales computers.
Hope this helps you.
Do award points if you found them useful.
Regards,
Rakesh
P.S. you can send me a mail at my mail id [email protected] for any specific details
