Hi,

Can Letter of Credit (Financial Document) be attached at Delivery Header / Delivery Item level ?

If yes, fine. If no, why ? Please provide all the necessary explanation.

Thanks

Dear Kokkonda

To my knowledge, no it is not possible to assign the Financial Document (Letter of Credit) in Delivery. You have to assign the same in sale order itself.

The reason if you ask me, assume a customer is placing an order on you for INR 50K. Unless the customer guarantee you for this amount, you wont start production and execute the order. So in order to start production of his entire order, he opens an Irrevocable Letter of Credit through his bank and authorises your bank to negotiate the documents after shipment.

Against this one order, you may be making multiple deliveries and invoices but the total value should not exceed this 50K. So in order to have track of the same, I feel SAP has given the provision of assigning the LC in sale order rather than in delivery.

Any other best suggestions are welcome.

thanks
