Credit Management

Hi,

I'm using update group 00018 for my credit control area.

In the credit management screen for a customer it's taking into account of all open sales orders also for which no items are confirmed.

I guess it should be taking in to account only the deliveries which are sent for picking and the ones for which goods issue is posted but no billing.

I ran the program RVKRED88 and it shows up the open orders also.

Any suggestions...

Thanks,

Vish

Hi Vish,

Update group 000018 is for non-delivery relevant orders only (for example, services). When you create an order, SAP takes the order value and update the open delivery value with it. Since services do not require delivery or schedule lines, orders once created they updates the delivery structure with the order value = delivery value. When the order is billed, open delivery value is subtracted from the exposure and open billing is added to the exposure. When the billing post to accounting, open billing value is subtracted and open A/R value is added to the exposure. The exposure is finally reduced when the cash is applied against the open A/R.

Kindly let me know your exact requirement so that i can suggest you which update group to choose and what other way to go if you cannot have the update group change now and you are already on production.

Hi Kapil,

Thanks for your response.

In the credit check, we want to consider only the ones for which the delivery have been created - released for shipment and billing pending. Please suggest and update group or any method by which we can accomplish this.

Hi Vish,

You can choose any of the two - 00012 or 00015.

000012 – This is available for delivery relevant orders only. On the event of new order creation, open order value is added to the exposure. When the order is delivered, open order value is subtracted from the exposure and open delivery value is added to the exposure. On billing the delivery, open delivery value is subtracted from the exposure and open billing value is added to exposure. When the billing post to accounting, open billing value is subtracted and open A/R value is added to the exposure. The exposure is finally reduced when the cash is applied against the open A/R.

000015 – Use this rule if you want SAP to calculate the exposure without considering the open sales order value. In this rule, when the order is delivered, open delivery value is added to the exposure. On billing the delivery, open delivery value is subtracted from the exposure and open billing value is added to exposure. When the billing post to accounting, open billing value is subtracted and open A/R value is added to the exposure. The exposure is finally reduced when the cash is applied against the open A/R.

To summarize, if you will use 00012, you will be able to do the credit check on sales orders and delivery both. Choosing 00015 will only allow you to do the credit checks on delivery. You won't be able to do credit checks on orders using 00015. So thinking on flexibility 00012 is good to go for..

Thanks
