Symptom
- The credit update controls when the values of open sales orders, deliveries, and billing documents are updated.
- When a dispute case is created for a customer, the disputed amount is not excluded from the credit exposure.
- The system continues to reflect the disputed amount in credit exposure, even after a dispute case is created.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Assign a credit limit to a customer.
- Create a dispute case for a billing document.
- Check the system's reflection of credit exposure.
Cause
Resolution
Credit exposure is updated based on the update group maintained in the credit segment of the customer.
The credit exposure is updated with creation of sales order or delivery document. However the dispute management is a stage between invoice and payment if there are discrepancies with the customer. In the case of an underpayment dispute case is created.
If one or more of the following factors apply to your company:
-
Numerous underpayments by customers
-
Long processing times for these cases
-
Complex company and communication structure
