credit check at order & delivery - are they related?

[Former Member]

Hi

I was checking SAP standard behaviour for credit check. Credit check can be done during

1)sales order entry

2)delivery creation

3)PGI

I found out that

1)if credit check has failed in sales order and order has been released manually, credit check is not done at delivery and PGI even though these are activated.

2)if credit check has failed in sales order but order is not blocked (due to dynamic credit check setting), credit check is done at delivery and delivery is blocked. Once delivery is released, credit check is not done at PGI even though it is activated.

2) if credit block is not set for order and delivery, only then credit block at PGI happens.

my queries:

1) is it SAP standard bevaiour that if sales order is released after block, no check happens in delivery and PGI?

2) is there any way of forcing credit check both at order and delivery even when order has been released manually?

thanks in advance

Hi,

It depends upon the setting in OVA8, it is based on the Checking group setting. If you activate the credit check for the Checking group assigned to Delivery then system will do the credit check irrespective of the Sales order release status.

I would request you to try the same in SAP

hi,

If you release an order and create the delivery at the same day,

the credit status of the delivery will be approved. There is no

further check started. This is the standard system functionality.

However, if you require a check because the checks in the sales order

are different from those in the delivery you have the possibility

to use the modification described in note 52637.

Caution: You now have to set the number of days in credit Customizing

'Automatic Credit Control' (OVA8) so that documents are not checked.

In case there is a certain time period between release and creation

of delivery there will be a check and the delivery might be

blocked (depends on the current credit situation).

You can maintain how many days a released document will be unchecked

in table T691F (Ta OVA8).

Also, please take note that the note 52637 is a modification note and

please review note 170183 if you are applying note 52637.

hi,

The SAP note 52637 should help.
