Hi hemant,

This is one of the ways credit check is done. Its the provision given to the customer to have some more days time after the actual credit period for an item. After this the system further allows time depending on the settings made in the " Day oldest item " field in OVA8 t.code. So, after this number of days has crossed the system does not allow further processing of any sales orders.

But once the specified number of days has crossed it does affect, preventing creation of any further sales orders. There are options in this.

<b>Credit check against oldest open item</b>

Indicates whether the system carries out a credit check based on the age of the oldest open item.

Use

The oldest open item must not be older than the number of days specified.

Here we set few options like what the system reaction is,

warning, error, credit limit exceeded etc.

Hope it helps. Please reward if useful.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Hemant,

Its a part of credit check, do you have implemented the Credit Management?

The message means, that there are open items to be cleared for that customer.

It also considers the open sales order too.
