Introduction

In some business scenarios you will need to update customer credit exposure adding values from an external source or from an internal source that is not considered by standard.

For testing purposes this blog will show how to update credit exposure considering values for special stock W Customer Consignment and it will affect:

• Credit exposure
• Credit check

BAdI UKM_FILL will be used.

Customizing

1. Create Liability Category

This is important in case that credit exposure new values should be listed in a different liability category. If not, it is possible to use a standard one.

Go to SPRO > Financial Supply Chain Management > Credit Management > Credit Risk Monitoring > Credit Exposure Update > Define Liability Categories.

Create Liability Category

For this test Z01 Customer Consignment Stock liability category will be created.

New entry Liability Category

Liability category should be created also as Credit exposure category  in SPRO > Financial Supply Chain Management > Credit Management > Integration with Accounts Receivable Accounting and Sales and Distribution > Integration with Sales and Distribution > Define Credit Exposure Categories.

Define Credit Exposure Category

Add Credit Exposure Category

2. Create implementation for BAdI UKM_FILL

Go to SPRO > Financial Supply Chain Management > Credit Management > Integration with Accounts Receivable Accounting and Sales and Distribution > Integration with Sales and Distribution > Customer Enhancements > BAdI: Fill Line Items for Credit Exposure Update.

Create implementation

Write an implementation name.

Note example implementation class in case you want to review SAP example.

Development

For this particular case FILL_FIELDS method has to be used. In this method you have to add items (the ones with values that you want to add to credit exposure and influence credit check) to IS_NOTIFICATION table.

In order to work properly customer consignment stock should be considered in credit exposure values (customized code) and Fill-Up consignment order and Issue consignment order should not affect credit check and credit exposure.

In order to test this BAdI here is an example code with hardcode values.

  method IF_EX_UKM_FILL~FILL_FIELDS .

  DATA: ls_in LIKE LINE OF is_notification.

  "Without this conditional transaction UKM_CASE will dump.
  IF sy-tcode NE 'UKM_CASE' AND sy-tcode NE 'UKM_MY_DCDS'.
    CLEAR ls_in.
    ls_in-partner = '0001019367'. "BP
    ls_in-credit_sgmnt = '1000'. "Credit segment
    ls_in-comm_typ = 'Z01'. "Liability category
    ls_in-amount = '1300'. "Value added to Credit Exposure
    ls_in-currency = 'USD'. "Currency
    ls_in-objkey = 'TFBV-00003-3000000001-31001588'. "Object key will be showed in reports
    ls_in-objtype = 'MATNR'. "Customized object type
    ls_in-date = '20200805'. "Date since BP is carrying debt, it will influence CM behaviour

    APPEND ls_in TO IS_NOTIFICATION.

    CLEAR ls_in.
    ls_in-partner = '0001019367'.
    ls_in-credit_sgmnt = '1000'.
    ls_in-comm_typ = 'Z01'.
    ls_in-amount = '5200'.
    ls_in-currency = 'USD'.
    ls_in-objkey = 'TFBV-00003-3000000002-31001589'.
    ls_in-objtype = 'MATNR'.
    ls_in-date = '20200805'.

    APPEND ls_in TO IS_NOTIFICATION.
  ENDIF.

  export UKM_ITEM = IS_NOTIFICATION to memory id 'UKM_ITEM'.

endmethod.

Result in transactions

UKM_COMMITMENTS transaction.

BP transaction.

UKM_MALUS_DSP transaction.

New sales order.

Summary

Adding the right code and just using FILL_FIELDS method in BAdI UKM_FILL is possible to influence customer credit exposure in reports and credit check.
