Hi Gurus,
Could anyone with credit management experience provide his/her thoughts?
Customer is applying a 2 step credit check:
1/ Age oldest open item < 30 days
2/ Dynamic credit limit check with horizon
of 0 days
Why a credit horizon of 0 days?
Well it often occurs that customers place sales orders for a whole year so to avoid an exponential increase in the credit exposure a credit horizon of 0 days is taken into consideration when calculating the open sales order commitment. This horizon can standard be achived with the dynamic check.
However, deliveries are created shortly after the creation of the sales order. The reason is that the Request for Transport (RFT), a document, is created from this delivery and communicated towards the transporter (forwarder) for freight planning purposes.
In credit management of SAP, all deliveries are taken in consideration for the credit exposure (no credit horizon is applied). This means that the credit exposure includes all open delivery amounts to check against the limit resulting in unjustified credit blocks. The customer’s credit limit is quickly surpassed due to the explosion in the total calculated credit exposure. The aim is to apply a credit horizon to deliveries with material availability date > current date
How could this be achieved without implementing any Badis? Is it possible standard after all ?
For the moment the option to write custom logic in Badi FSCM_COMMITMENT_UPDATE_DELVRY is on the table to ‘recalculate’ the open delivery amount before checking against the credit limit.
Looking forward to your thoughts
