Kuestion -B * have set all the settings for credit chec,, however the credit value is
not updated correctly, why2
AnswerB /he credit chec, and the update of the credit values are separate
processes which are also controlled separately by the respective customi)ingD
1$ credit chec, is controlled by transactions !AAF and !AA9. Relevant note 19:1;
>$ update of the credit values is controlled by A!AE or !AAED Bcredit acttiveB Gag.
/he 7(redit active7 setting only aHects the credit update of the +- credit values
(open orders, open delivery and open billing documents$. /his Gag has no control on
the credit chec,. +o if for an order type, there is no credit chec, in !AAF and !AA9
but the Bcredit activeB Gag is set for the item category, the order will update the
credit values even if no credit chec, is performed for the order.
*f the Gag Bcredit activeB is not set, the system will not update the open credit
values. !n the other hand, the system A.A3+ updates the F* credit value 7!pen
receivable7 when the billing document is transferred to Accounting. +o, although you
deactivated the B(redit activeB Gag in !AAE or A!AE, such an item will increase the
7!pen receivables7 and thus the credit limit used when the corresponding billing
document is posted to Accounting.
