Integration with Other Components

Use

The following functions are available for information exchange with other (insurance) components and systems, from SAP ECC Industry Extension Insurance 6.0.

Information Container

From SAP ECC Industry Extension Insurance 6.0, the information container provides a comprehensive temporary storage facility, which you can use to transfer information to upstream or downstream SAP or external systems.

You can find more information in the Information Container release note for this release.

Forward Clearing Information

If a premium document has been cleared by payment receipt, you can transfer this information to the in-force business system with the Forward Clearing Information function (VAUGL_INFO).

The data is transferred by a mass activity for event V038.

You can find this new function in the menu for Collections/Disbursements, under Periodic Processing -> Transfer Data.

Paid-to Date for Insurance Object

In Collections/Disbursements, you can now determine the date up to which all open items for an insurance item are cleared, in seamless chronological order (according to the due date). You can evaluate this information in your in-force business system.

The RFC-capable function module FSCD_PAID_UNTIL is available for date determination. The function module determines the date up to which open items have been cleared for an insurance object. This takes place using the most recently cleared item. The prerequisite for this is that the items are cleared seamlessly and chronologically. For partial clearing, the system outputs the amount for the overpayment or underpayment.

Note
To achieve seamless chronological clearing, clearing control must be set up for the Account Maintenance clearing type so that the oldest document is always cleared. For special cases, in which gaps still occur for the insurance object, the new Clearing Oldest Debt function is available as a correction tool. You can find more information about this function in the Clearing Oldest Debt release note for this release.

The evaluation of the items for the insurance object takes place on a cross-business partner and cross-contract account basis, meaning that business partner and contract account are not taken into account.

Transfer External Numbers from Operational Systems

For some objects, such as the insurance object and the contract account, you can now transfer external numbers from an operational system to the Collections/Disbursements system.

Reversal with Inverse Posting for Payment Plans

You can use reversal with inverse posting for payment plans, and transfer this information from an operational system. For this, the Reversal Method (STMET_KK) field is available for business cases, payment plans and payment plan items for the Payment Plan Reversal function, and for the payment plan interface (function module ISCD_SCPOS_MAINTAIN, parameter T_SCPOS)

You can find more information in the Postings and Documents release note for this release.

Paid-to Date

In the Implementation Guide, you can define whether amount limits are to be in force for the oldest open item for a contract in posting area V450, from which an item is regarded as cleared, and how large the maximum open share of an item can be. You make these settings in the Define Amount Limits for Clearing Interpretation IMG activity, under Collections/Disbursements -> Basic Functions -> Open Item Management.

The FSCD_IO_ITEM_SEL BAdI runs during the selection of the relevant line items. In the method for this BAdI, the system filters the documents that are to be taken into account when determining the paid-to date. To create an implementation for this BAdI, execute the Filtering Items for an Insurance Object IMG activity for the BAdI, under Collections/Disbursements -> Postings and Documents -> Basic Settings. Take note of the documentation for the activity.
