How to configure A/Cs Recvble not to block if a/c is zero or credit balance

[Former Member]

Namastay Gurujee,

I work for one big retail distributors and have recently migrated to SAP. Our credit policy is if the accounts has outstanding overdue, then it goes into "N" block which needs HO approval to release this "N" block.

In SAP even account with zero balance or credit balance, the account goes into N, the technical guys reason that because SAP looks at old uncleared invoice not net balance. How to overcome, and account to go under "N" only if there is net debit balance not net zero or credit balance.

Best Pranaam,

Thanx Nayabjee,

The invoicing is automatic after PGI in S&D module. But the system puts account on "N" hold status even when the customer net balance is zero or in credi balance. How to overcome this misleading "N". "N" status should come only if there are overdue account from long outstanding sales invoice.

I'm not sure about your query, but what I understood is you're using FB70 for the booking purpose. When you create, it by default set "N", which should not be used in all cases.

In this particular or related case, you can use Validation/Substitution in transaction OBBH.

- You need to create ABAP program.

- Created function would be called in transaction OBBH at Line Item Level.

- Function would check if Blocking Indicator should be set or not, and would set the value accordingly.
