Change credit risk categories

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We would like to change the credit risk categories. Currently we have EHR, HR, MD etc.

Now our client wants to use A,B,C,D and also add an extra risk category E. The 1st four categories are one to one mapping with the old risk categories.

Apart from chaning the credit master data in FD32. what are the other steps that are to be followed.

Do we need to run any batch jobs to take care of the open FI and SD items?

Thanks and Regards,

What is the purpose of running F.28.

I am unable to understand the improtance of it. As i see credit risk categories are not displayed in any of the SD or Fi documents.

Is this the complete check list or there is something else that needs to be done.

HI

Risk categories are just for reporting purposes. Based on risk category of customer, company can decide the credit limits and other things in FD32. It doesn't related with openitems or other things. Hence only change you need to do is FD32 changes.

All open items are related to Customer and Customers are related to risk category. Hence there are nothing else in system which needed to be updated because of risk category.

Hope this clarify your doubt.

Hi

If you will change the Risk Categories, it means you will have to maintain OVA8 accordingly afresh. Then again in FD32 you will have to assign these new Risk Categories. And after doing all this you are suppose to run the transaction F.28 to update any open document in SD / FI.
