Credit Management : Controlling Release in Multi-branch Environment

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have an SAP 4.7 system with 6 company codes representing an HQ company and 5 country level branches. We now want to look at controlling the credit release process in VKM1/2/3. What we desire is the following:

Users belonging to the HQ COmpany can release orders to any value

Users belonging to one of the branch company codes can release orders up to 20% over the credit limit or 20,000 EUR over the credit limit, whichever is the greater

Within standard authorisations I can find the way to control the credit release by percentage but not by the combination of percentage and/or value. Do you know of any way to achieve this?

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve,

in transaction OVA8, customers can program themselves their own credit

checks via the user defined checks (user1, user2 and user3). These

checks as well as all the credit checks defined in OVA8 are performed

in program SAPLVKMP, include LVKMPU01, function module

SD_ORDER_CREDIT_CHECK. Here you can find:

...

• user credit check 1

...

PERFORM USER_CREDIT_CHECK1

...

Here you have userexit USER_CREDIT_CHECK1 (Include LVKMPFZ1).

You can find further information in IMG-> Sales and Distribution/

System Modifications/ User Exits/ User Exits For Credit Checks And Risk

Management.

Kind regards,

Zsuzsanna
