Credit management for consignment sale

681 Views

Hi,

It is well accepted that in Standard SAP , for consignment sale process credit check is done in Consignment issue level as in this phase material stock is logically got diminished from valuated stock. But business dynamics need some solution with nature of business needs and from that point we need that how the same can be managed with consignment fill up. Consignment fill up is the stage where material is moved from plant gate to reach consignment agent's premises which is geographically may be located far away and this is the phase where user can want the credit check before dispatching more quantity with that of payment have received or with a threshold value of credit limit though the stock is under ownership of plant and that same will be transferred to customer after consignment issue.

now we have configured system in that way, KBN and KEN item category has been configured perfectly as needed(like credit indicator checked for KBN and unchecked for KEN item category).

But the problem is faced like following way.

Suppose I am doing a transaction of delivery against a consignment fill up order with value of 2 Lakh with that much credit limit and after making the delivery it got updated in FD32 open sales value (2 Lakh) which is correct in this context.

Secondly at the time of consignment issue delivery further open sales value is not updated with 2 Lakh which is also correct(as credit check is inactive as it should not be update the open sales value as 4 Lakh)

Lastly when we are preparing the consignment commercial invoice with reference of consignment issue delivery then after posting 2 lakh got updated in receivables in FD32 which is also correct but at the same time open value should be diminished to zero which is not updating and this is wrong as then credit exposure is calculated wrongly for next transaction. so huge value will be accumulated in open sales value for consigmeet agent and the same cannot be rectified by standard program RVKRED77 like normal customers.

So please explore what may be the solution for the same(may be any configuration setting) or if there any another correction program exists.
