FIN_FSCM_CCD_3:Business Function FSCM Functions 3 (New)

Use As of SAP enhancement package 5 for SAP ERP 6.0 (FINBASIS 605), the FSCM Functions 3 (FIN_FSCM__CCD_3) business function is available. With this business function you can use new functions in the following components: In SAP Collections Management, you can take into account that a business partner is managed in several collection segments or in several accounting systems. Using this summary of the outstanding receivables, you can influence their priority in the worklists. Your collection specialist can gain an overall view of all of the entries for a business partner in the worklist. This still applies even if they are in several worklists and originate from several accounting systems. The specialist is consequently better able to make a realistic assessment of the collection of receivables at a customer, and if necessary to centralize it. To respond to customers who wish to make payment but are experiencing financial bottlenecks, you can now create and manage promises to pay for installment payments. To facilitate your correspondence, you can send documents such as account statements, OI lists and individual letters during receivables processing. This also applies to sending individual dunning notices. In addition, you can send a summary of a customer contact to a customer by e-mail. The option of creating notes at invoice level helps with the provision of information at document level. You can also enter documents as an attachment at various points, for example, to supplement a note or resubmission. You can now use SAP Credit Management without having to install a separate server for using SAP NetWeaver Process Integration. For additional information, see the release note

(FSCM_605_CCD_3_WSRM). In addition, you can compare the credit exposure between a sending system (FI-AR system, SD system) and the receiving system of SAP Credit Management, and thereby recognize discrepancies early. The transfer, display, and use of new payment behavior summaries in the SAP Credit Management system is now simpler, because you no longer need to make changes in the Enterprise Services Repository. Previously in SAP Dispute Management you could only forward to an external application using program UDM_PUBLISH_DISPUTE_CASES. There is now also a pushbutton available in dispute case management. If the external application CRM Claims Management is active, then a second pushbutton is also provided so you can navigate to the Claim and process it. Effects on Existing Data Global Rules have been introduced in SAP Collections Management for aggregating several business partners, supplementing the existing collection rules. To display all entries of a business partner there is the function Worklist -> Entries for Business Partner in the worklist. Similarly, there are new collection rules for creating installment plans. The area menu has been enhanced with two new functions. You can find these starting in the SAP Easy Access screen under Accounting -> Financial Supply Chain Management -> Collections Management -> Periodic Processing -> Worklists -> o o List of Resubmissions Deletion of Notes

In SAP Credit Management the program for reconciling the credit exposure is available under List Displays -> Reconciliation of the Credit Exposure. To display payment behavior summaries, there is a new tab in the business partner that you can adapt with making modifications.
