Hi All,

On OVA8 transaction I have two querues.

1.next to the static credit check there is are two check boxes"open orders" and "open deliveries".What do these do?If I do not check them will the open SO value and the open delivery value not be considerd?

2.next to any of the credit checks there is a check box "status/block".what does it do?If i do not check check this will the Sales document not be blocked even if if the document fails in that credit check?

Best regards,

Su

Hi,

1) Normally in static check, only the open billing &item values will be considered. But if u want to include open order and deliveries, u need to mark the two fiels. otherwise it will not be considered while calculating the value for credit.

Ex:

Static Credit Limit Check.

The customer's credit exposure may not exceed the established credit limit. The credit exposure is the total combined value of the following documents:

• Open billing documents

• Open items (accounts receivable)

Open orders and pen deliveries can also be included, if u mark the indicator

The open order value is the value of the order items which have not yet been delivered. The open delivery value is the value of the delivery items which have not yet been invoiced. The open invoice value is the value of the billing document items which have not yet been forwarded to accounting. The open items represent documents that have been forwarded to accounting but not yet settled by the customer.

2) There are two fields called *reaction * and status/block.

Reaction tells about how the system has to respond (either with error / warning/ No response)

The status/block indicator deals about for the particular credit check, whether the system has to block the order for further processing (allow to proceed further), If u have unmarked the block indicator, it may not block the orders for delivery , but it will give error message abt credit.

Hope it is helpful

Hi ,

Thanks for the reply.

Point No 2 is clarified.

But I have doubts regarding point no 1.

My client is using static credit check for years without the "open oders" or "open delivery" checked.However the static credit check always works on the summation of Open sales documents + Open delivery documents + Open billing documents + Open items (accounts receivable).

So my question was if we check the "open orders" will the system check only the Open sales documents ignoring the rest or is it the other way round?

Hi,

Actually, the system automatically include only the open billing & open items.

If u mark the open deliveries &open orders, it will include them addittionally, so totally 4 values will be included.

As u said, if u mark only one field ex: open orders, then totally 3 values will be added and open delivery will be excluded,

Hope it is useful

Hi

Normally in Static credit check the system checks 4 values

1. Open items

2. Open billing

3. Open delivery

4. Open order

Here we have a option to include / exclude the open orders and open deliveries in the credit check depends on the check box what we are activated here in OVA8..

But Open item and open billing are always included

ie,

If we do not tick the open order and open delivery the system checks only the open item and open billing document... if we tick anyone or both that too added with the open items and open billing document...

Hi,

I just replicated your first scenario:

If we do not check open order and open deliveries the system is not checking the orders and deliveries which have the status complete, these orders may not be cleared rather we can say its not paid yet by customer... Here we can say we are giving some relaxation to the customer....

If we check the open orders and open deliveries then system also check the documents which have status complete but hasn't been paid by the customer.....along with the document which has the status being processed (Which is obvious).......

This is the major difference.........

Revert back if any......

Hi,

I also replicated the scenario, what Kalee said was correct.

Hi Bugs :One quick query ,if the sales document is complete then in that case there cannot be any open order or delivery. In that light can you pls explain what you mean by “If we check the open orders and open deliveries then system also check the documents which have status complete”

"If we check the open orders and open deliveries then system also check the documents which have status complete"

Here what I mean to say is though the stutus is complete then system checks for the status of the billing doucment for that particular order...... See this is abit confusing...

Lets say sales order 1000 has status complete and delivery is also complete but if you check billing there it says being processed, because customer has not payed or accounting docu not cleared i should say.... right...... This case is considered if we check open orders and open deliveries...

Hope you got it......

If you want to check the open items go for FBL5N TCODE.

Hi,

Goto SE11 or se16 and check the database tables s066 and s067 for open order, open deliveries and open billing documents

Hi Supratim,

1) The 2 check boxes Next to Static Check are used only when we use Static Check(Tick the check box static check). In this case Static Credit Check is used (No time frame is considered). tIcking these two boxes Open Orders and Open delivery take into account the Open Sales Orders and Deliveries and not the Open Billing items.

2)If you tick the Status/Block next; in case the credit Check fails due to check of the reason at the left of the Status Block (All the checks have got their own check box), the further processing cannot be done an error will be thrown along with the reaction.In absence of this check box checked the further procesing be done along with the reaction.

Hope it Helps

Hi Abhishek,

Thanks for the reply.Let me verify my understanding :

1.If you check only the "open order"check box but do not check the "open delivery" check box then the open orders will only be considered .open delivery or billing will not be considered.However if you do not check either of "open order" or" open delivery" check box then every thing is considered open order+ open delivery+ open billing + open payment and compared to the credit limit.is my understanding correct?

2.Say,I check the open items check put the system reaction as B i.e. warning and assign values to max open item% and max open days.However I do not check the box "status/block".In this case if the open items check fails the system should give me a warning message but should not block the Sales document?Is that understanding correct?
