One more concept you have to understand, if your company or client operating working in Global model.

dgreybarrow GO GLOBAL

Global exposure involves credit check using overall exposure calculated from ALL ORGANIZATIONS (this is the term associated with Global Exposure) or credit exposure calculations using SINGLE organizations.

There are two levels available for this type of credit checking:

  1. Customer level credit checking and the overall credit limit defined at this level will be used.
  2. Org Default level credit checking and the overall credit limit defined at this level will be used.
  3. Site level and Item category level are not applicable to global exposure because customer sites are specific to an organization only and currently the item category credit checking is limited only to the specific sale order being credit checked.
  4. Global Exposure usage:
    • Site Level: Not Available
    • Customer Level: Available
    • Item Category Level: Not Available
    • Customer Default Level: Available
  5. In order to enable Global Exposure, Navigate to Order Management Super User > Setup > Credit > Define Credit Usage Rules.
    Enable a checkbox option called: Global Exposure

If a rule has been assigned to a credit profile, then modification of the rule set is not allowed. If a rule is new or not assigned to a credit profile, then modification is allowed. Next lets expose more on credit usage Rule.

dgreybarrow CREDIT USAGE RULES

  • Usage rule set defines the set of currencies that are involved in a specific credit check process.
  • Credit usage rule ensures that all transactions for specified currencies go through the currency conversion process prior to the credit checking process.
  • Usage Rule Set can be assigned to a Customer Profile Class, Customer account, Customer site, Item category or Operating Unit Default.

Credit Usage Rules enables:

  1. Multi Currency Credit Checking
  2. Global Credit Checking

Multi Currency Credit Check

 

  • With Multi-currency credit checking, you need to define just credit profile with single currency (e.g in US dollars) and share it among the other currencies. With Single currency credit check you must define a credit limit profile in each currency since each currency is treated individually for credit check purposes.
  • If you do not assign a credit usage rule set to the credit profiles, then the credit checking is performed as Single currency credit check.
  • While assigning usage rule to a profile a currency for the profile needs to be specified. The limits and the currency defined for that particular profile will be picked as multi-currency and credit checking will be done based on these limits.
  • For using multi-Currency credit checking set the Profile option AR: Credit Limit Selection to MULTI.

 

Global Credit Checking

  • Global exposure involves credit check using overall exposure calculated for all Organizations.
  • Global credit checking can be enabled by selecting the 'Global Exposure' check box in Usage Rule Set.
  • Global Credit checking is not applicable to Site level and Item category level profiles because customer sites are specific to an organization only and item category credit checking is limited only to the specific sale order.

SOME SENARIO BASES FAQ

Question we have implemented AR module.Is it possible to implement Credit check for AR invoices.
We have created customers with credit limit, but on invoicin what if you donot have OM , can i use Credit check function with AR only?

 Credit check is not directly available in AR. If you refer back to AR Implementation Guide it states :

Credit Check: If you select the Credit Check box, then Oracle Order Management will check the customer's credit before creating a new order, provided that the Payment Term and Order Type associated with the order also require credit checking. Receivables does not check your customer's credit when you create transactions in Receivables.

QuestionWe are using Credit Check and Credit Hold. In Profile Amount we gave profile amount for each currency. Now we want to see for each customer what is credit Balance available.

Go to Receivales Super User -> Reports -> Listings -> and then run the Credit Limit Usage Report.
