Hi Everyone,

We work on the Accounts Receivable Usecase and want to include the credit management.

Analysing the outcome of the credit checks and understand reasons for credit blocks is the goal.

The logs from the credit check results are stored in the Application Logs BALHDR and BALDAT.

However, the information in BALDAT is encoded and therefore not directly usable in Celonis.

SAP decodes information from BALDAT by the Function Modules BAL_DB_SEARCH ,BAL_DB_LOAD,

BAL_LOG_MSG_READ.

 

Did someone come across this use case recently?

Do you have any idea to solve this?

 

I appreciate your support.

Dan

Dear @dan.grieb , I think the best way to handle is by having staging table at the SAP itself as custom table with converted value before getting it into Celonis, similar with long text conversion issue. However for BALHDR / BALDAT, it is LRAW and it can contain anything from text to image, have to ensure it is indeed only string.

Let me know your thought.


Dear Teuku,

 

many thanks for the idea!

I will clarify this with our SAP team.

 

Best regards

Hi @dan.grieb  For implementing SAP Accounts Receivable have you used the standard APP from market place or build your own.

We are planning to implement it so thought would be good to know what you have done.

Hi Ravi,

 

yes we use the standard APP with the Starter Kit.

However we are implementing some additional KPIs like Reasons for Credit Blocks which are based on the mentioned data.

Hi @dan.grieb  Thanks for the reponse!Were you able to use the app out of the box you are you had to do some customization.

Will you be able to share some details on that part?
