Editing Liquidity Items View (FLQC1) What is the "Cash Flow Direction" item used for ?

[KImoto]

Hi Experts,
I am currently implementing FSCM_CLM, but I don't understand what the "Cash Flow Direction" item in Tr-cd:FLQC1 affects.
Could someone please tell me what this item affects, and specifically what happens if IN and OUT are set incorrectly?

When I asked SAP, they told me it was related to the following settings, but I didn't understand them.
SPRO-->Financial Supply Chain Management-->Cash and Liquidity Management-->Cash Management-->Liquidity Items-->Define Basic Settings for Liquidity Analysis.

Thank you!

Hi,

The "Cash Flow Direction" setting in FLQC1 is linked to the nature of the liquidity item, meaning whether it represents revenue (cash inflow) or expense (cash outflow), depending on the business context.

In specific scenarios, you might want the item to receive only incoming cash (IN), outgoing cash (OUT), or both. If this setting is incorrectly configured, the system may misclassify cash movements, leading to inaccurate liquidity analysis and reporting.

Best regards

Josemar

Thank you for your reply. Sorry to trouble you, but could you please tell me what you mean by "specific scenario"?

I used the CF Analyzer(F2332) and CF Comparison(W0128) app to check whether there was a difference in the results when the cash flow direction was divided into IN/OUT/IO and when it was all IO, but there was no difference. I checked the logic for where the cash flow direction items are used and could infer from the comments that it was related to Note.2456634. Note.2456634 is about a Chinese specific app, but am I correct in understanding that it only affects this app?
