Cash Management

Hello All,

Would appreciate guidance wrt implementation of Cash Management.

We would be using LSMW for update our Master data with the Planning Groups / levels.

However, not aware of the Cash Management Implementation Tool and it's associated problems.

Our understanding of FDFD is (execute the following):

- Activate Company Code,

- Data setup - We don't intend using any of those expect FI-GL, FI-AR & FI-AP

- Data Reconciliation - do we need this ? What parameters; only main Bank accounts?

- Data Correction - do we need this ? when, only if there are errors

- Customising - ok

- Cust / Vend Data - not using this program, any impact?

The above is being implemented in ECC 6.environment (with FI being used). A heads up on the above would be highly appreciated, Thanking you in anticipation,

Regards, Raj

Hi,

Please go through the following documentation:

Report for Dynpro: SAPMFFD1

Description

Transaction FDFD was developed mainly as a tool to support

implementation of the cash management and forecast (CM&F). You can

activate the CM&F update for company codes; table settings are checked

as you do so. The planning groups needed for the CM&F updates can be

entered in vendor and customer master records, making partial/complete

reconstruction of the totals records easier.

The program consiss of five subareas which can be reached by means of

status buttons: 1. Activate company code

2. Vendor/customer data

3. Data setup

4. Data reconciliation

5. Data correction

1.) Activate company code

When you activate a company code for CM&F, this makes it possible to

update planning data in money transactions relevant to planning. There

is a further indicator for the update from each of MM and SD which you

must set if you want the data from those areas to be passed to CM&F.

When you activate, all the table settings are check and, where

necessary, carried out.

2.) Vendor/customer data

You can use this function to include planning groups in the vendor/

customer master records. These planning groups are a necessary criterion

for recording open items in CM&F.

The lines in the table represent selection criteria for the various

groups. The logic used is as follows:

The priorities merely assign rankings. Priority 1 is the highest. The

system checks this criterion first. If the vendor/customer satisfies

this criterion, the group for this record is entered into the master

record.

Example :

Prio. Ctry Frm pymt trm To pymt term Dunn. Pymt mtd Group Pymt hist.

1 US ZB01 ZB05 0001 U E1 X

2 US E2

3 OTHER

Vendors/customers who satisfy the criteria in line 1 are assigned

planning group E1 and the flag for recording the payment history is set.

All other customers in the US receive group 2; foreign customers are

assigned group "OTHER":

To ensure that every master record is assigned a planning group, you

should always specify at least one structure (with lowest priority)

which a vendor/customer fits if no other is suitable.

You can use the "Check" button to determine the number of master records

to which no group has yet been assigned.

Use the menu option "Download/upload" menu option to store the selection

criteria locally and import them again later.

) Data Setup

In data setup, you can copy documents and open items, along with plan

records and account balances, already in the system into CM&F.

Here, you can stipulate whether the data setup should cover the data

from SD and MM, along with agency business or data from Treasury

Management.

You run the transfer programs as background jobs, for which you can

enter a scheduled date and time. We recommend you schedule the job to

run at night because postings made during the data setup may lead to

data inconsistencies in CM&F.

Note that the first step in the data setup deletes all the planning

data.

In the case of data from manual planning (plan items, payment advice

notes), the system generates a special query because this data cannot be

retrieved once deleted. If you want to retain this data, answer "No" to

the query.

) Data Reconciliation

A program is available to level the CM&F data which you can schedule

from here as a batch job. For more information, see the program

documentation.

) Data Correction

If a data inconsistency occures between CM&F and the actual data, you

can use this option to avoid having to reconstruct all the data. The

reconstruction can be limited, depending on where the inconsistency

originated. For more information, see the program documentation.

If useful, assign points.

Thanks
