Credit Management- active position types

[former_member193516]

hi,

we activated CM a while ago.

Now it has been found out that exposure is not correct due to the fact that some

order position types have not been correctly marked as relevant for credit.

Now, they have been activated (CMPNT- CMPNT) .

However, values do not go into credit management (VBAP-CMPNT - field remains of course empty).

Is there a way to populate the values in the credit structures? Populating values in table alone does not help, also running rfdkli20 program did not result in moving values into credit management.

Any further hints much appreciated.

Thanks + Regards

I regret to tell you that there is no standard report to correct the

old documents. Reports RFDKLI20 and RVKRED77 will not help in this

case. Report RFDKLI20 updates all sales documents with regard to their

credit data (credit control area, credit management account, credit

currency, credit value, risk category) within an 'internal VA02'. That

is, the system imports the document, changes the credit data and then

saves it again. However, unfortunately as described in the SAP

note 546734:

"Changes in field "Credit funct. active" (CMPNT) from the Customising

for the item category (Transaction VOV7) are ignored during the

recreation of the credit data after organisational changes (report

RFDKLI20). Therefore field CMPNT cannot be affected anymore in existing

documents. A change of field CMPNT concerns all new documents".

The only two workarounds I can think of are:

1. write your own report in order to change VBAP-CMPNT in the old

documents or

2. set a reason for rejection in the old document items in order to

delete its value from FD32 (afterwards, you can create a new item

in the old document and this new item will not update the open

credit values since the item category is not credit active any

longer).

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks for your information.

With setting the indicator in the table - do you think that would really get that information into the credit management tables as well (s066/ s067)?

Also, I wonder what happens when credit management is first time activated. There data is "updated" as well. Why is it working there and information is transferred and not in cases when position types are added later on as active?

Thanks + Regards
