Credit Exposure Update

This function enables you to manage all open VSS orders in SAP FSCM. Open orders contribute to the credit exposure of a business partner in SAP Credit Management. When the credit limit check runs in SAP Credit Management, it checks if the total credit exposure has already used up or exceeded the credit limit.

Integration

A business partner's credit exposure is displayed for each credit segment in the master record (in transaction UKM_BP, for example). From there you can navigate to the commitment line items.

Features

VSS transfers the commitment line items to SAP Credit Management when you save the order.
The commitments are made up of the following:

• Items / jobs that have not been rejected
• Service jobs that have been approved (by the customer)
• Items that have not yet been billed
• Items that have been released by the credit analyst if the credit limit has already been exceeded. In the case of the part sales process and the vehicle sales process, commitments are sent independently of whether the release step in SAP Credit Management is triggered by the credit analyst or not.

For VSS order commitments, the credit exposure category Open Orders (VSS) (110) is used.
