RAR Contract for Credit Memo Request (Start date and end date)? How to determine?

[former_member735915]

Hi Team,

We have a requirement to create RAR Contract for Credit Memo Request which can be created with or without reference to an Invoice.

Following are my query:

1. As Credit Memo Request does not contain "Start date and end date", how can we get that?
2. We can maintain "start date and end date" in the BRF+ but in that case, we will have to maintain it everyone in the BRF+.
3. Is there any standard solution in BRF+ or in some other places based on which system would automatically determine Credit Memo Creation Date as "start date and end date"?

To All RAR Consultants,

How have you implemented this in your clients?

Hi Kartik,

Thanks!

I played around BRF+ and achieved that with standard BRF+. Kept start date and end date = current date in the BRF+ for DT_POB_PROCESS

Hi Mahesh,

We had the same requirement at our company. How we achieved it is, instead of having complex logic in RAR or BRFPlus, we added a validation on the Credit Memo Request (CMR) to have contract dates. Our CMRs are created in reference to Sales Order and not Billing. So for these set of CMRs, contract data is copied over from Sales Order. For standalone CMRs, user has to maintain contract dates on creation or else the CMR would be incomplete.

If you would like to maintain CMR creation date as the contract start and end date, you could potentially look at the sales order user exit or the FM which creates RAIs. We may need a developer to jump in here to help us with technical analysis, but I would still insist on the other solution we followed at our company. It has no enhancement, and allows for the data to flow through naturally from SD to RAR.

Thank you.
