FI-CA Write Off effect on Banking System cash flow

[Former Member]

Hello Everyone,

When a Write Off is performed in ECC FI-CA on a contract created in BS (Banking System), there are no effects on the BS contract itself: the contract is not closed and nothing happens to the cashflow.

On the contrary, I need to close the contract created in BS after a write off is performed in ECC - FI-CA, or, alternatively, to show the write off effect in the BS Cash Flow.

Thanks and Regards.

Hi Ermanno,

Going thru your requirement, I can see that you need to build an gateway\interface b/w ECC FI-CA  and your banking System (BS).

This interface can be in real time or in the form of a batch job depending on your business requirement.

I would recommend you to use event 5040 as the triggering for sending this information to B/S.

This event comes in to play after the write-off document has been posted in ECC FI-CA.

If you are sending the information in real time, then you can use this event to create IDOC or any other format (like XML etc.) that is accepted by the BS and send them so that they get updated in BS.However, you have to design a ALE model b/w ECC and BS for transferring these IDOCS.

If you are sending this information as a part of a batch job which triggers daily at the end of the day, then using this event you can select all the entries which have been written-off for the day, and create a flat file containing these entries and transfer it to the BS through FTP or any other transfer mechanism.

Hope it helps.

Thanks,
