OVA8 (about credit control) - "Highest dunning level"

[Former Member]

At OVA8 (about credit control) we have "highest dunning level". I can read the explanation below but I couldn't understand why "highest dunning level" stands for. Can anyone explain me?

Credit check against highest dunning level allowed

Indicates whether the system carries out a credit check based on the highest dunning level.

Use

With this type of credit check, you specify the highest dunning level you want to allow in the adjacent field. The dunning level is tracked and stored in the credit data in the customer master record. If this level is exceeded during order or delivery processing, the system carries out a credit check.

Dear Yasar,

Dunning is the reminder which we send to the customers regarding the due payment.

Please check with your FI team to learn more about Dunning.

If Highest Dunning level in OVA8 is set as 2, then the system will block the sales order if we have any due payment from the customer for the open items for which we have already sent 2 reminders.

I donot know how to configure Dunning. Your FI team members can help you in resolving this.

Hope my answers can help you upto some extent.

Thank you
