Short text
Receivables Submission to Collection Agencies (IS-PS-CA) (enhanced)
Use
The submission of receivable to a collections agency has been enhanced with the following functions for Public Sector Contract Accounting:
- Derivation of responsible collections agency (also of law enforcement authorities, dunning court)
- Additional XML interface for data export for submissions to collections agencies.
- Information of responsible processor for incoming payment on collections item.
The following is a more detailed description of these enhancements:
Derivation of Responsible Collections Agency
If items are released to the collection agency and there are rules in your organization for the distribution of these items to different collection agencies, from this release you can define derivation rules Customizing of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable. These derivation rules are the basis of the corresponding derivation tool. This is always called using the function module FMCA_COLLAG_SAMPLE_5060 if an item is released for the collection agency (individual release using transaction FP03E or mass release using FP03M). The derivation tool determines the collection agency responsible from a number of source fields of the structure FNCACOLLAG (which can be enhanced) in one or several derivation steps. The number of derivation steps corresponds to the number if derivation rules you have defined in Customizing of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable.
Additional XML Interface for Data Export for Submissions to Collection Agency
If overdue receivables are submitted, the collections agency requires detailed information for its enforced collection procedure. SAP therefore provides a XML file which the customer can enhance, in addition to the interface file of Contract Accounting (standard interface) which is generated for each submission run and for each collection agency.
The XML interface is implemented using three of the function modules delivered by SAP: FMCA_COLLXML_5052, FMCA_COLLXML_5053 and FMCA_COLLXML_5054. The contents of the XML interface is defined by structures called FMCACOLLXML*. These 12 structures can be enhanced with fields of the basis structure if required using customer-include without the function module being changed.
The XML interface generates a file with the same name as the standard interface with ".xml" added. This is generated in addition to the standard interface and stored in the same directory of the application server. The prerequisites for the creation of this XML file are that three function modules FMCA_COLLXML_5052, FMCA_COLLXML_5053 an for the XML file in Customizing of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable.
The XML files can be transferred to the interface format specified by the collections agency using the appropriate tools.
Information of Responsible Processor for Incoming Payment of Collection Item
If you want to ensure that the responsible processor is informed about incoming payments to collection items, the system can now send a message when a payment is posted. The sample function module FMCA_CLERK_COLL_AG_0020 and the rule FMCA_COLL_AC (02100019) are delivered for this.
As soon as a payment is made to a collections item, the processor receives an incoming document which is displayed in the SAP Business Workplace. Using this notification, the processor can decide whether an item has to be called back from the collections agency or whether other steps should be carried out.
Incoming payments are always made with a particular origin key (for example payment lot, manual payment). If you do not want automatic notification for particular types of incoming payments, you can define this in Customizing of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable.
Effects on Existing Data
Effects on Data Transfer
Effects on System Administration
You can enhance the structures FMCACOLLAG and FMCACOLLXML* using customer exits to provide additional field contents for the derivation of the collections agencies and to pass on further information to the XML interface.
Effects on Customizing
Derivation of Responsible Collection Agency
You define the derivation rules for responsible collection agencies in Customizing of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable in the IMG activity Define Strategy for Derivation of Responsible Collections Agency.
Additional XML Interface for Data Export for Submissions to Collection Agencies
You define the sender data for the XML file to collection agencies in the Public Sector in Customizing of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable in the IMG activity Define Sender of XML Files to Collections Agencies.
Information of Responsible Processor for Incoming Payment on Collection Item
If you want to use this function, you have to enter the installation- specific function module FMCA_CLERK_COLL_AG_0020 as the user-defined function module for event 0020 in Customizing of contract accounts receivable and payable. You call up the IMG activity Define Customer-Specific Function Module. You maintain the responsibilities using the rule FMCA_COLL_AC (02100019) with the function Maintain Roles (transaction PFAC_CHG).
If you do not want to use the rules delivered by SAP, you must copy the rule and the installation-specific function module and change them according to your requirements.
You define origin keys for which there should be no notification for incoming payments on a collection item in Customizing of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable in the IMG activity Exclude Notification for Certain Origin Keys.
