Hi Gurus,
Here i have a scenario with Horizon period. We are using 1month as horizon period in dynamic credit check.
Now i am creating an order with delivery date after 45 day's from now. At this junction my customer is having credit limit and this order is accepted without any blocks.
while doing the delivery after 45 day's do i need to go for a credit check again or how this horizon period is going to effect this delivery.
Can any body explore this.
Thanks in advance.
Venkat.
hai,
if u have a credit group set at the delivery level :
then
the system checks for the total credit limit available on the delivery date(left over credit of this month 30 + credit limit utilised till that 15 day of next month)
on the 45 day if the credit limit is available the delivery happens,
if credit limit is exceeded then basing on the credit group set at the delivery level
the delivery is blocked . remove delivery block at VKM5.

Hi
If your process of credit check is enabled at delivery creation also, then obviously it will check for the credit limit at the time of delivery creation for a horizon of 45days from then. At that point of time, if the available credit is lesser than the required credit, then PGI cannot be executed.
And that is the objective of enabling credit check both at sales order adn at delivery stages. If you dont want this to happen, you can enable at only sales order stage and not at delivery stage.
Reward point if it helps.

Credit Management
The customers credit limit is assigned to the customer by going to the Logistics overview screen, Accounting, Financial accounting, Accounts receivable, Master records, Credit management, Change.
A credit control area is an organizational unit that is comprised of one or more company codes.
Create a credit control area and assign it to a company code in the Enterprise structure under financial accounting.
A customers risk category is a grouping category that controls the credit checks when automatic credit control takes place.
In SD credit check can occur in only three places: sales order, delivery and goods issue.
The system can use a simple credit check, static credit check or a dynamic credit check.
The simple credit check is set at the document type level e.g., sales order, delivery etc.
Simple Credit Check
Assign credit limit check to the sales doc type:
A warning message
B Error message
C Delivery block
D Automatic credit control
SAP enables static and dynamic credit checks so that a sales order for a good customer with a low risk credit rating is created and a sales order for a high risk customer with a high risk rating for the same doc type is blocked.
Automatic credit control divides the sales doc types, delivery doc types, and goods issue into specific credit groups.
An outcome procedure is defined using the credit group, the customers risk category along with the credit control area.
Risk categories are defined in the FI module.
Create the different credit groups e.g., for sales order, delivery, goods issue.
Assign the credit groups to the sales and delivery doc types.
Now define the settings for automatic credit control -> combination of credit control area, customers risk category, and credit group.
All that remains is the assignment of the risk category to the customer master record. This occurs in Finance by going to the Logistics overview screen -> Accounting, Financial Accounting, Accounts receivable, Master records, Credit management, Change or FD32.
The static credit check is a check comparing the credit limit assigned to the customer to the total value of open sales orders, plus the total value of open deliveries not yet invoiced, plus the total value of open billing documents not yet passed on to accounting, plus the total value of billing documents that have been passed on to accounting, but which have not been paid by the customer.
The dynamic credit check is a check comparing the credit limit assigned to the customer to the total value of open sales orders not yet delivered, plus the total value of open deliveries not yet invoiced, plus the total value of open billing documents not yet passed on to accounting, plus the total value of billing documents that have been passed on to accounting, but which have not been paid by the customer. The dynamic credit check has an attached time period that states that the system is not to include sales orders in the total of outstanding items created after the specified time period.
The credit relevant data is updated into an information structure, where it is accessed and updated. Thus each automatic credit control must be assigned an update group. The system allows for no update, and update group 000012, 000015 and 000018. However, update group 000012 is thorough and used in most businesses.
To view the customers credit master sheet, proceed from the logistics screen and go to accounting, financial accounting, accounts receivable, environment, credit management, check, credit master sheet [F.35].
